Chapter 1734: 1734
Chapter 1734: Demise
“This time, I plan to take people deep into Kel’Thuzad’s Air Fortress,” Lu Li said .
“I knew you wouldn’t let me down,” said Old Fordring . He gave Lu Li high praise and felt like Lu Li was just like him – willing to make sacrifices for Azeroth’s people . The game designers seemed to have a good grasp on human nature .
There were many similar situations in real life . If you really liked someone, their bad behaviour could still be interpreted in a good way . But if you didn’t like someone, you likely wouldn’t see any goodness in their actions . When Stormwind City abandoned the Hand of Tyre, it was Lu Li who led the people to save the land against the plague .
“My brothers have gathered in the front line of battle, but I am just missing a commander,” Lu Li had planned to leave soon and was trying to get any help that he could . Otherwise, the other clubs would get the First Clear before him .
“Please wait, I have something that you might be able to use,” Old Fordring called out to Lu Li and began to dig around for something, “In the recent battles, we have managed to get quite a few good items . These items should all be put to good use for the glory of Lordaeron . ”
Ah, this was the Old Fordring they were looking for . It was no wonder that he and Lu Li were such good friends . It was some worn out Magic Robes! These clothes were very worn out and dirty . If you sat down and put it in front of you at Stormwind City, someone would only give you some copper coins .
“This is the treasure of the Chief Administrator Mage Bradley,” Old Fordring quickly explained, “Although it has been damaged, the runes have not been destroyed . I believe you will not be disappointed if you read its attributes . ”
Bradley’s Robe, a Legendary equipment!

Lu Li was never going to be disappointed . No matter how damaged it was, as long as it was a Legendary item, it would still be a cut above an Epic item . The only pity was that the robe was indeed damaged . Currently, there were only two Special Effects left . One of them was Rapid Nine Star, which allowed the caster to unleash nine big successive fireballs . But if the target was hit successively, each fireball had its damage increased by 50%
Lu Li quickly did some mental arithmetic but wasn’t able to work out how much damage all nine fireballs would deal . This one of a kind Rapid Nine Star was enough to qualify Bradley’s Robe as a Legendary item because of its ability to one-shot . Lu Li was sure that even he wouldn’t be able to tank all nine fireballs .
Lu Li had only seen one other one-shot item before, and that was the Greatsword of the Brotherhood .
The other special effect was Fiery Rebirth . This resurrected the player after death and would deal Inferno Impact damage to targets within eight yards of the target . They would also receive 50% regeneration of HP and mana .
The second special effect was also very powerful . The only drawback was the long coOldown time of three hours . Another issue with it was that it only had 45 Durability, whereas most level 60 Legendary equipment had at least 350 Durability . This meant that the item had to be repaired more frequently .
This equipment was definitely something for Fat Monkey . Yet, Lu Li felt envious about giving up the item, so he decided to charge Fat Monkey a large sum of money, take a chunk of his DKP and may even force him to call Lu Li his father . There were a few more pieces of equipment given after that, but none were as exquisite as that robe .
“I also have this equipment, which we got after paying a heavy price . I think you might like it,” Old Fordring took out another item which was actually good . From the appearance, you could see that it was a very sharp dagger .

Kryss of the Fallen King! It was a Legendary dagger!
This Legendary dagger was colloquially referred to as Demise . Lu Li’s hands shook as he took the weapon . He had heard of the name of this dagger but had never seen it before . It was said that this was the ultimate Thief weapon that could by dropped in Naxx . It was the best Thief weapon a few generations ago . It was better than his Felstriker and better than the Shard of the Defiler .
Although people have heard that Naxx could drop this weapon, there were few people that have actually seen it . Kryss of the Fallen King (Legendary): Damage 100-135, Agility +150, Strength +120, Critical Hit +35%, 3 Slots . Special Effect 1: Shadowstrike Skill +1, Special Effect 2: Gale Steps Skill +1, Special Effect 3: Sudden Thrust . Choose a target within 15 yards and instantly thrust towards the target to deal double damage and cause a two second stun . Special Effect 4: Part 1 – Sacrifice 30% of your HP to deal double damage to the target . Part 2 – Sacrifice 50% of your HP to deal triple damage to your target . Part 3 – Sacrifice 99% of your HP to deal quintuple damage to your target . 30 minute cooldown . There is a certain probability that your attacks will result in an instant kill effect .
Lu Li could finally change his weapons .
Shard of the Defiler (Epic): Damage 82-96 . Agility +80, Strength +60, Attack Speed +45%, 2 Slots . Special Effect 1: Deep Contamination, requires activation, reduces 30% of target’s armour and movement speed, 120 second cooldown . Special Effects 2: Fatal Blow: when the target health drops below 20%, there’s a certain chance to execute the target . Special Effects 3: Echo of Archimonde: Activate to transform into a demon, allowing the user to cast demonic skills, lasts for 30 seconds, useable once per day . Level Requirement 60, Durability 240/240 .
Felstriker (Perfect Epic): Damage 88-120, Agility +120, Strength +100, Critical Hit: +35% . Three Slots . Special Effect 1: Ambush Skill Level +1, +1 Combo Points gained for using this skill . Special Effect 2: After the user successful lands a critical hit, gain 50% damage increased for 10 seconds . Special Effect 3: Phantom Shift – Six Phantoms appear randomly that last three seconds each . The user can choose to change positions with one of them at any time . Two hour cooldown . Special Effect 4: Bloodthirst, Instant Cast, consumes 20% of HP to increase Attack Power by 50%, Attack Speed by 50% and Movement Speed by 50% . Lasts for 10 seconds . Two hour cooldown . After using this effect, the user is satisfied and can no longer be affected by other bloodthirst or time warp effects for ten minutes . Equipment Requirement: Level 60 . Durability 320/320 .
Although the Shard of the Defiler seemed to be weak, have bad attributes, and didn’t have any notable effects, the attack speed of this weapon was just too powerful . Any Thief that wanted high attack speed would never reject this weapon .
Lu Li hesitated for a long time, but finally replaced the Shard of the Defiler because Felstriker’s effects were just too powerful . It was also a Perfect Epic weapon . Even if his attack speed was now a little worse, equipping Demise and Felstriker was definitely a big upgrade .
“Is there anything else?” Lu Li curiously asked . He looked at Old Fordring with widened eyes . He really didn’t expect this Old Paladin to be so rich . Old Fordring had previously awarded an Epic equipment so reluctantly, but now he just handed over four Epic items and two Legendary items . Both of those Legendary items even have an effect which has the potential to one-shot . It was only high-end Legendary Equipment that had this ability – equipment with one-shot effects were actually quite rare in Dawn .

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
