Chapter 869: Greedy Ghost Shield
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the same time, the members of Void Blade finally understood the strength Quan Zhen Sect possessed, that even the mighty Sanguine Alliance feared them.
Wang Yu himself was enough trouble when he could pummel a BOSS single-handedly. Coupled with Fearless who was a master in all sorts of devious trickery and an unruly group of experts behind them, this small guild was truly not to be messed around with.
Greedy Red Devil was rendered immobile when he was injured by the falling stone pillars. His painful howls filled the whole place.
Fearless had gone through many difficulties in capturing the Greedy Red Devil. How could he possibly let it escape? Fearless hurriedly pointed towards Greedy Red Devil lower chin and once again shouted, “Close up!”
Spring Halo waved her staff and summoned her [Dark Barrier]. Crotch Lord also followed up on the attack. He whipped out his shield and cornered the Greedy Red Devil into a small edge.
Wang Yu came rushing over and landed successive kicks and punches onto the Greedy Red Devil.
As the rest saw that Greedy Red Devil was weakened, they also came out of their hiding spots to help in the last-ditch fighting efforts. The Greedy Red Devil was bleeding profusely from all its orifices.
The Greedy Red Devil wanted to unleash its [Greedy Eye], but every time it wanted to do so, Wang Yu was there to act as a deterrent. If he were to do that, the players would immediately rush up to yank its eyes out. The Greedy Red Devil had no choice left but to just face the oncoming attacks.
This Greedy Red Devil was only a level 60 BOSS after all. How long could its HP level last in the face of multiple experts attacking it? After a few short minutes, the battle was concluded and the devil let out a tragic cry as it died.
Captain Don’t Open Fire let out a long sigh of relief…
Such an annoying BOSS was tough but not undefeatable. As long as one used the right tactics, victory was within grasp. However, this BOSS was particularly troublesome. If it weren’t for the help of Quan Zhen Sect, Captain Don’t Open Fire’s team would definitely have to take significant losses in this BOSS fight.
Thinking about it, Wang Yu was essentially just a facilitator. Fearless was the true mastermind behind such a crafty and devious plan. Few people could match him in this aspect.
The first thing to do after slaying a BOSS is naturally to check on the equipment drops. However, this time the players from Void Blade had no share in any equipment because the majority of the mobs were slain by the players from Quan Zhen Sect.
The players from Void Blade also did not feel short-changed as they felt that the Greedy Red Devil would not drop any good equipment.
The bunch from Quan Zhen Sect were all looking furtively at each other. No one was willing to step out.
This was to be expected since the corpse of Greedy Red Devil was simply grotesque. No one wanted to be near it.
If one probed the body of the Greedy Red Devil and got some good equipment, this act would be worth their while. However, if one were to find nothing, then the person would definitely end up as a laughingstock.
“Old Li, go and take a look…” Fearless glanced towards Ming Du and said.
It was not that Ming Du’s character was anything worthy of compliment but it was that his luck was the best among the Quan Zhen Sect. Fearless was giving him a chance to find something good.
If he did not do it, it would be such a waste once they exited from the dungeon.
Ming Du immediately laid down on his back on the ground as he cried, “I suddenly feel unwell… Don’t ask me to do something like that.”
“Wow, shameless!” Everyone was displeased at his blatant act.
“Would anyone like to do the honours?” Fearless scanned the crowd.
“Old Li, do you have any medicine? I also don’t feel too comfortable right now…” Some members of the crowd asked.
Fearless replied, “…”
Seeing that no one was willing to inspect the carcass, Wang Yu who was honest and dependable, finally stood up and volunteered. “I will do it.” As the model member of Quan Zhen Sect, Wang Yu was at the forefront of every battle. He even dared to grope the BOSS’ neck. Touching it a few more times would not be a big deal.
Everyone gave Wang Yu some positive affirmation as he slowly moved his hands near the Greedy Red Devil.
The Greedy Red Devil had a large and imposing physique. Even at a height of 1.86 metres, Wang Yu was barely at his crotch level. Furthermore, this devil only wore a pair of short shorts and his body was filled with multiple leaking abscesses.
Seeing Wang Yu’s tragic appearance, everyone could not help but stifle their laughter.
Just as they wanted to continue making fun of Wang Yu, Wang Yu groped around for a few moments before he whipped out a shield.

Item Introduction: A common Ghost Face Shield that was digested by the Greedy Red Devil
“This… This is my shield!”
Seeing the shield in Wang Yu’s hands, Firm as a Rock could not help himself but cry out.
“Oh? Is that the case?” Wang Yu also was momentarily taken aback.
Firm as a Rock had indeed lost a shield when the BOSS swallowed it whole.
Wang Yu was about to throw the shield back over to him when Fearless interjected, “Old Bull, don’t be so hasty.”
Fearless gazed over at Firm as a Rock and inquired, “On what basis do you say that this is your shield?”
“This Ghost Faced shield is clearly mine.” Firm as a Rock replied indignantly. The BOSS had swallowed him whole four times and gobbled up everything from his weapon to his clothing. How could the shield not be his?
Fearless chuckled, “But your Ghost Faced Shield is of a silver grade, this is a Greedy Ghost Shield that is a gold grade.”
Ghost Faced Shield was a standard-issue silver grade equipment. Although shields were quite scarce, Void Blade members could still afford to be equipped with them.
Although Firm as a Rock’s initial Ghost Faced Shield was better than the ones sold on the market, his shield definitely did not have the passive skills that were on the shield Wang Yu was holding.
A Shield Warrior’s most important attribute is his block value. The last passive of Wang Yu’s greedy ghost shield was a percentage chance to convert an incoming attack into a block value. This passive had indeed turned a piece of ordinary silver equipment into a gold one.
One silver and one gold. If they simply returned the shield back to Firm as a Rock, this exchange would be too inequitable.
On the item description, it was clearly stated that this shield was a result of it being digested by the Greedy Red Devil. Furthermore, it was previously agreed that all equipment drops would belong to Quan Zhen Sect. Therefore, there was no dispute that this shield was Quan Zhen Sect’s property.
