The Great Thief Chapter 1085 - Sorrowless’ Contribution

Chapter 1085: Sorrowless’ Contribution

Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations
“Now!” Lu Li shouted the moment he saw something appear at the foot of the spider.
Sorrowless also noticed the two abnormalities with these two Bosses and a semi-circular shield quickly formed with him in the center. The others didn’t need an instruction for them to all run behind it
A paralyzing venom rapidly spread throughout the arena.
This kind of venom was not the same as the regular venom which traveled in a direction and could be blocked by players with higher Poison Resistance. As long as the players with higher Poison Resistance stood at the front, the effect on the others could be reduced or avoided.
This venom floated through the air, silent and unpredictable.
Its effect was damage and paralysis, and it was known as the team killer. A normal team would have to attempt this phase several times in order to determine how the venom worked so that they could take measures like casting damage reduction skills or area of effect healing.
However, with Sorrowless’ shield that significantly reduced damage, the situation was dramatically changed.
The biggest contribution to the defeat of these Bosses suddenly came from Sorrowless. He had allowed them to easily pass through phase three as the spiders were quickly defeated by everyone’s attacks. It could be expected that Glory Capital would easily profit from this Instance Dungeon in the future.
In fact, this was what everyone was already thinking.
Even without Sorrowless’ shield, Lu Li had a way to get them through this phase, but he didn’t want to reveal it so easily.
The equipment dropped by these two Bosses was quite ordinary. There were no Epic items but a few Dark Gold items. They also dropped a valuable Warlock Skill Book, which was rolled for and taken by Phantom Glaze.
“Your performance in the arena has been outstanding; it has been a very entertaining time!”
High Justice Grimstone had reappeared and he had a grating laugh, but unfortunately there was no way to attack him.
He was known for his fairness in the era of the King of the Mountains, Modimus Anvilmar.
The death of Anvilmar resulted in the opposition of the three tribes. High Justice Grimstone followed the Iron Dwarf King, and dreamed of taking the Iron Dwarves to the top with his vision of justice.
However, after the battle of the three Hammers, the Iron Dwarf King was enslaved by the Fire Elementals. Today, Grimstone no longer had the same ambition, and has been left with nothing to do but to watch the prisoners in the arena die in various ways.
The next Boss that was summoned was the Eviscerator.
The origins of the Eviscerator was a secret; no one knew how he had gotten here. There was a legend that the Eviscerator was once a human and had become a Worgen. He would use his powerful claws to gouge out the eyes of his opponents.
When Lu Li saw this monster, he had a bit of a headache.
Although you couldn’t actually gouge out someone’s eyes in this game, there was a similar effect designed to emulate it. After being successfully attacked by the Eviscerator’s Eviscerate, the player would be blinded for 30 seconds.
This was when the player was most likely to die.
However, as usual, Lu Li planned not to let anyone know in advance so that they could all experience it first.
In phase one, the Eviscerator acted like an ordinary Worgen Boss. He had high attack strength, but he was easily tanked by Azure Sea Breeze. In phase two, the Worgen would transform into a sorcerer and summon a pool of Bilewater at the players’ feet. The players had to quickly leave the Bilewater, otherwise, they would rapidly lose HP and die.
The players who had come into contact with the Bilewater would also be affected with a contagious infection. If they stood next to another player, they would both lose HP for a while.
However, phase two wasn’t actually that difficult. Everyone here was a professional player and they were all able to react quickly. They immediately avoided the Bilewater as soon as they saw it.
The real difficulty was in phase three.
“Dammit, I can’t see! I can’t see!”
Green Flag Wine was going steadily, but when lost his vision, he became flustered and began to frantically yell. What made matters worse was that the Bilewater appeared beneath Green Flag Wine’s feet at the moment he lost his vision.
“Run forward!” Lu Li yelled.
Unfortunately, Green Flag Wine was panicking and didn’t respond in time. He was quickly killed by the Bilewater and now it was Elevenless’ turn…
“What should we do?”
The group of star players felt helpless after they got wiped and looked to Lu Li. They all treated him like a light that would guide their way. Not all of them could escape the Bilewater just by listening to a direction that was given when they lost their vision, particularly for the girls, who had lower mental fortitude.
“It’s actually quite simple,” Lu Li sneered with a condescending look. “Everyone, pair up, and if one of them is blinded then the other will pull them away.”
“Is that it?” Sea Breaker was about to cry. He was a star player who was already underconfident, but now he had begun to doubt everything he knew.
“Let’s give it a try,” Lu Li said firmly.
After trying it, the Eviscerator was easily killed. The blindness in the third phase could indeed be overcome by ensuring that there was always someone to guide the blinded player. Once the Bilewater was avoided, the crisis was basically over.
“Don’t loot the body yet. Let’s regenerate our HP and mana first,” Lu Li said as he sat down cross-legged and began to apply some poison onto his dagger.
The rhythm of this arena was also one of the main reasons a group could get wiped. Once a Boss fell, the next Boss would be summoned almost immediately. This posed a serious challenge to Magic Professions, who needed Mana to be useful, let alone the physical and mental exhaustion that faced the others.
This next Boss, who claimed to be Gorosh the Dervish, relied on his individual strength to reach the Blackrock Abyss arena and proposed to stay there so that he could live his fanatic pious life. High Justice Grimtstone realized that the large grey-skinned person before him was just a commoner, so he agreed.
This Boss was a standard Berserker, with Whirlwind as his signature skill, along with a Bloodlust-like ability.
His Mortal Strike was also very troublesome to deal with. After being hit by Mortal Strike, the player not only received double damage, but would also only receive 50% healing. This meant that a healing skill that originally restored 300HP would now only give 150HP.
Lu Li and the others spent nearly half an hour and were wiped once before finally killing the Boss.
The next Boss was called Lefty.
He was more difficult to deal with than Gorosh the Dervish because he was a Dwarven Thief.
Although he had a cute pink beard, he wasn’t to be underestimated. The pink beard was just a trick he used to deceive his opponents. When encountering an enemy, his left-handed attacks were often more powerful than his right-handed attacks, and you also had to be careful of his various tricks.
The only good news was that this guy had a slightly lower amount of HP.
