The Great Thief Chapter 1091 – A Return Gift

The giant fire elemental finally fell to the floor, which erupted into flames. However, it had already lost the ability to harm players.

The experience reward finally boosted Lu Li to level 54; he was the seventh one to reach this milestone. As a guild master and a competitor, this was nothing short of a miracle. Not to mention he had also completed many quests and invested a lot of time in his Trade skills.

Green Flag Wine was quite lucky; he received a skill point.

Wendelian looted a Synthetic Stone that reduced level requirement for equipment by 10%.

All of the players on the team had at least one or two Legendary equips on them, but after they saw the Attributes of the stone, their eyes turned red.

“Lu Li, are you going to keep the equipment for yourself? Oh my God, the captain is going to steal our equipment! Lu Li is going to steal our equipment!” Unfogettable Maple always liked stirring up trouble.

“Unfogettable Maple muted for 10 minutes for spreading rumours,” Lu Li said with a smirk on his face.

Muting was a function that existed for teams – the captain had the ability to mute certain players. Muted players cannot speak or type, but since point rolling was done with typing, Unfogettable Maple had also lost the chance to roll for this item.

Unfogettable Maple was angry, but he couldn’t do anything besides keep his eyes wide open.

Nobody pitied him; it was nice enough for them to not laugh at him for this. Everyone quickly rolled before he could speak again.

One by one, the results were made apparent and each time a player saw someone with higher points, their expression would immediately sink. The player with the highest score was constantly on edge, like they were on a roller coaster.

Lu Li rolled 77, which wasn’t a low score, but it wasn’t high enough to obtain the stone.

The highest score so far was Elevenless at 95. He had a very good chance of obtaining the item. However, after Water Fairy rolled, everyone gave up, including Unforgettable Maple, who had been muted.

100 points!

Based on the rules set by Dawn, unless you also roll 100 points, you wouldn’t have another chance to compete against her.

However, the chances were too low. 100 points weren’t easy to obtain, let alone having it occur twice in such a short time span.

As expected, the next four players never even reached past 90 points.

In the end, this Synthetic Stone landed in Water Fairy’s hands and others could only watch. No one offered to buy it off her; there was no way they were richer than she was in the first place.

Wendelian watched as Water Fairy packed away the stone, then turned her head to continue looting the corpse.

Lu Li suddenly felt someone pass something into his hands. He turned his head, only to see Water Fairy standing behind him. What she had passed to him was the Synthetic Stone that everyone had just rolled for.

“It’s too precious,” he said as he scanned all the other competitors who were on the team. No one had noticed so far.

These kinds of Synthetic Stones weren’t as valuable as Legendary equips, but they were just as rare. No matter how much money you had, it wasn’t guaranteed that you would be able to purchase one when you needed it.

“I don’t need it at the moment, and I have some spares. I haven’t thanked you yet for preparing the materials for the daggers for me,” Water Fairy said, then paused and added, “I’ve accepted everything that you’ve given me, and this is something that I want to give to you. There’s no need to value it based on the market.”

A girl of strong will – Lu Li liked people like this.

He was never a fan of the other girls who relied on others to survive, the kind who played coy to beg others to help them level and give them equipment.

Although Water Fairy didn’t decline what Lu Li had given her, she always found ways to return the favour.

The materials that he had prepared for Water Fairy weren’t cheap either, especially the minerals that he had mined up today. If he sold them on the market, they wouldn’t be any cheaper than a Synthetic Stone with a reduce equipment level requirement Attribute.

The others were still distributing the equipment. Perhaps it was because of what had just dropped, but Bael’Gar didn’t give out anything worthwhile after.

Almost everyone participated in the point rolling of the few Dark Gold equips that came after. As for a skill book for Fire Mages, Lu Li exchanged for it with a Dark Gold equip. Both of the Mages here were Ice Mages, so they weren’t interested in Fire Mage spell books.

Lu Li was the captain, and Sea Breaker, who rolled for the skill book, was easy to negotiate with.

Once the others had completed their mission, everyone began to set foot on their journey again.

Although they had spent quite some time on Bael’Gar, it was still 4-5 hours away from the end of their game time. It was enough for them to attempt the next boss.

The East-West Military Camp was located on the two sides of the Black Iron Hallway and was linked mechanically through the centre. This was another great work of Franclorn Forgewright – Shadowforge Lock.

Unfogettable Maple could use the Shadowforge Keys to access the hidden door. After following the flaming spiral up the lock, the pathway that linked the East-West Military Camp would appear. The military camp was one of the places they had to pass in order to see the Black Iron King.

Everyone went up the stairs and walked to the left passageway until they reached the end and ran into another passageway.

In order to prevent his team members from dying for nothing, Lu Li scouted ahead.

At the turning point of the pathway, there was a group of elite Dwarves and Fire Elementals. Using usual scouting methods, the team would have dived right in, and it would a matter of minutes before they wiped.

Since Lu Li had scouted ahead and discovered the situation, it was only natural for the Hunters to lead them over one by one.

Next, everyone had to face General Angerforge, who was one of the eight generals that served under Modimus Anvilmar. He was in charge of the security forces for Modimus Anvilmar and had many achievements to his name.

Angerforge was used to battling with a double-hand axe called “Black Howling”, and always dived straight into battle first. Even the Black Iron King could not be compared against him.

His subordinates referred to him as ‘the Rock’, as he was always fighting besides them. Unfortunately, after the War of the Three Hammers, Black Iron lost its glory of the past. Now, the Lord General guarded the East-West Military Camp, a location that players had to pass to reach the king.

Everyone paid respect to the old general, but the first wipe happened so swiftly that no one dared to pity this friendly-looking old Dwarf.
