Chapter 1391: Stuck
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
They had been here for the entire day, but were still stuck in this part of the Instance Dungeon.
Lu Li’s was not in a positive mood. According to his original plan, they were supposed to defeat the ninth Boss today and then spend the rest of the time becoming familiar with the final Boss. They would then spend the next day fighting the Boss, trying to obtain the First Clear.
However, things didn’t develop the way he thought they would.
They had made no gains all day. The other players were dumbfounded by their lack of progress as well, but no one dared to say anything because of Lu Li’s serious expression.
Everyone could see that he was upset. If they provoked him with their words, he might even retaliate by deducting their guild points.
After knowing him for such a long time, everyone knew how Lu Li operated. They all knew that he would exact his revenge on them if given the chance.
Everyone turned their attention to Water Fairy and looked forward to her performance. No matter how upset Lu Li was, he would surely respect Water Fairy, unless he intended to be single for the rest of his life. Azure Sea Breeze even mouthed to Water Fairy for her to talk to Lu Li. It had been hard for him to focus so intently all day.
“We’re out of time today,” Water Fairy remarked.
“Oh,” Lu Li said, coming out from his trance, “Yes, we’re out of time. Everyone, get ready to log off, and remember to log in on time tomorrow. Let me know in advance if you can’t make it.”
“Tomorrow is the last time. It looks like you won’t be able to defeat it,” Azure Sea Breeze chimed in, upon seeing that Lu Li had responded normally.
“Oh, so you don’t want to fight anymore just because we can’t finish it? Do you want to skip out on tomorrow? You must have too many guild points; maybe I should take some. Maybe making guild points is too easy for you in Instance Dungeons. If you didn’t make so many mistakes today, then we would have already defeated the Boss. Let me ask you guys, is it because we can’t tank the Boss, or we can’t heal fast enough, or we can’t manage our mana? Huh?”
Lu Li had just completely let loose onto him!
Azure Sea Breeze instantly felt the urge to cry. Lu Li had just spoken so nicely to Water Fairy in front of them, so he thought he could let his thoughts be known. He didn’t think he would be attacked so severely. The difference in his response was so obvious too.
“Well, if you’re not happy...” Wandering began as he patted Azure Sea Breeze’s shoulder, “I think you can consider buying a ticket to go to Thailand.”
“Thailand? Why would I go to Thailand?”
Azure Sea Breeze didn’t understand why he was being asked to travel abroad. What did that place even have, except for their curries and their... ladyboys? Azure Sea Breeze immediately wanted to fight Wandering.
After Lu Li had vented, he went to have a meal with Water Fairy.
“Are you really not angry?” Water Fairy asked as she put her plate down, sat across from Lu Li and started eating.
They didn’t go to a high-end restaurant or any particularly romantic place. This was actually just Ruling Sword’s dining hall, but it was still better than the university canteens. The ingredients were fresher and the cooking was better. Things were made individually rather than all together in a big pot.
In the bright surrounding environment, it was impossible to conceal how attractive the woman
before him was.
She was wearing a blue dress which a simple flower embroidered on it. There were no other embellishments and it was very elegant.
Water Fairy seemed to have a preference for this kind of dress, except when was she was dressing professionally and wore similar outfits.
Her waist was quite thin, but it wasn’t overly thin. It was just right, and it highlighted the curves of her lower body. Her calves were slender in contrast to the clear curves of her waist and ankles, which made her legs appear longer.
To use Hachi Chan’s phrasing, everything below the best just seemed to be legs.
Water Fairy had only recently seen the Ruling Sword building. After all, she lived nearby and would occasionally visit to train the trainees. Sometimes, she would use the training equipment, and give some suggestions for the Ruling Sword Training Camp.
It was obvious that when a goddess-level character appeared in this world, there were countless people that were fascinated with her.
However, because of the reputation of this couple, no one had dared to talk to her.
In the mind of an Otaku, he might have a decade long plan on how he would be with this goddess. However, the cruel reality was that he had never acquired the goddess’ phone number and she didn’t even know his name.
There were a bunch of things on Lu Li’s plate, which was in stark contrast to the simplicity of Water Fairy’s.
When he heard Water Fairy ask about him, he spat out a bone in his mouth.
“How could I not be angry? We could have gotten the First Clear on this cooldown, but it seems like our levels and equipment are still not good enough.”
If he remembered correctly, he had done the Molten Core in his previous life with Level 60 players.
This meant that their attempt was a bit early. He knew the strategy from his previous life where he defeated the Instance Dungeon, but now he had a group of level 59 players.
The gap between level 59 and 60 was quite large.
The equipment they were all getting was basically all for level 60 players. It was also impossible to find Level Reducing Gems for all of them, as Ruling Sword didn’t have that kind of financial power. As such, even with all the equipment they were receiving, there wasn’t much of an improvement in Strength.
“Tomorrow, we should be able to defeat the ninth Boss. This means we’ll definitely defeat the Instance Dungeon in the next refresh,” Water Fairy comforted.
“Well, after defeating the ninth Boss tomorrow, I’ll get everyone to farm to level 60. I should reach level 60 by tomorrow as well.”
Lu Li didn’t have much EXP to go. After killing a few mobs and the Boss, he would hit level 60 and so would at least half of the team.
In the next refresh, they would have many more level 60 players with level 60 equipment in the Instance Dungeon.
It would be a significant improvement to their strength. If they couldn’t defeat the Molten Core even then, there was no hope for anyone else. Since Ruling Sword couldn’t do it, the other guilds shouldn’t even think about it.
“Tomorrow, we can get more groups on this so they can try it out. It would be good if they can
even defeat the first Boss,” Water Fairy said.
The more they fought the Instance Dungeon, the more equipment they could receive. The focus of next week was to defend their Stronghold.
Drizzle Court wanted to take the western wilderness, but it didn’t mean they would be successful. There were many clubs competing with them and unfortunately, neither Ruling Sword nor Peerless City could help them. At most, they could lend equipment, but since the battle was all happening at the same time, Ruling Sword wouldn’t be able to fight.
As for the transferring of players, this wouldn’t work either. They needed to transfer the players a week in advance for them to be eligible to fight.
“What about the strategy? Wandering definitely knows it, and we can let Peerless City try it as well.”
Lu Li didn’t really mind that more people knew about the strategy as it wasn’t the deciding factor on whether they would get through the Instance Dungeon. Lu Li currently knew the strategy, and he still hadn’t managed to defeat the Boss.
