The Great Thief

Chapter 1026: Death’s Clutch

Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations

“Good, good, good, everyone did well this time.”

Lu Li said ‘good’ three times in a row, which was a first in his commanding career.

The Boss’ HP was about to fall below 10%; it probably only had one Ice Puck and Frost Nova left. As long as there were no major incidents, Lu Li was confident they could defeat this Boss that had wasted almost two hours of their time.

“Should we save our best skills for the end?” Wandering asked.

“Yes, save your ultimate skills, and just keep fighting consistently for now. Jaweika, help everyone regenerate their mana; you don’t need to focus on dealing damage. Her Tears, use your stronger shields if anything happens.”

Paladins didn’t have such an ability; it was actually a special effect of his equipment. It gave a shield to his teammates and provided a 20% damage reduction.

“When should I use it?” Her Tears asked, suddenly feeling an enormous amount pressure on his shoulders.

Previously, he was still only a small part of the team. He wasn’t familiar with Lu Li’s way of commanding and couldn’t cooperate well. All he needed to do now was to not make any mistakes, and cast the effect during a crucial moment.

In fact, PVP players could easily be converted into PVE players. Most of them could adapt well – after all, their fighting awareness would be excellent.

However, the opposite was not true. PVE players were not necessarily suited for PVP.

After the Frostbolt Rain, all the players had less than half HP. The ground was already beginning to freeze over as Ras Frostwhisper began to whisper her annoying incantations.

Lu Li calmly looked at Hachi Chan and said, “Cast Tranquility. Jaweika and Kitty Likes Meat, you are too close. Keep a three-yard distance away from it. Alright, stop. If you don’t have the range to attack it, then stop attacking. Everyone else, don’t move.”

After all this, they still lost two players in this wave.

If the Game Company wanted to make this Boss even more difficult, it wouldn’t be hard to. For example, in Stage 3, if there was a Fear skill cast with Frost Nova that would disrupt the players’ formation, this would result in even more casualties.

However, Scholomance wasn’t the hardest Instance Dungeon before level 60 and Ras Frostwhisper wasn’t the last Boss.

They also always needed to give the players some way to defeat the Boss.

“10% left. Hachi, you revive Memories, and I’ll revive Dreamy. Next time, don’t use skills that make you move – just fight on the spot.”

Lu Li saw that the Boss’ Ice Pucks were now ending and began to revive the two girls who died.

There were fifteen players and the Boss was at 10% HP. It would only be able to cast one more Frostbolt Rain, and if they could survive through that, it would be dead.

“Watch out for the Berserk. Memories, wait for that before you cast Bloodthirst. Her Tears, get ready to cast the shield on my command.”

Lu Li stared at the HP of the Boss. He hadn’t relaxed in the slightest, even though victory was in sight.

“The Lich King has given me eternal life; how can you mortals think you stand a chance?” Ras Frostwhisper cackled. It was hard to imagine him as young aristocrat, sitting among a pile of books and smiling gently.

“Bloodlust!” Lu Li yelled at almost the same time the Boss went Berserk, prompting Sakura Memories to decisively use her ability.

Her Tears also cast the shield while Azure Sea Breeze was being attacked by the Boss. The others either

cast their damage reduction skills or took potions while they were getting hit by the Frostbolt Rain. Fortunately, they didn’t suffer any further casualties.

At 3% HP, Ras Frostwhisper threw the last Ice Puck.

“Increase your damage output and don’t hide!” Lu Li stared at the Ice Puck that was about to explode and cast the special effect on the ring that made him immune.

The Berserk Ras Frostwhisper’s Defence was lowered, and with everyone’s ultimate skills saved up, the final result was no surprise.

There were a few casualties during this wave, but the Boss’ HP was finally depleted.

The surviving players received a bunch of EXP, but there were six player who had unfortunately died.

However, they died didn’t feel sad at all. Both Jaweika and Moonlight were both awarded skill points.

“Go loot the Boss; we can rest after that,” Azure Sea Breeze ushered. He was sitting on the ground and watching Remnant Dream.

Remnant Dream was tired, but still she still wanted to loot the Boss for more equipment.

“Wow, Epic, it’s an Epic!” Remnant Dream was tired but still almost jumped up with excitement. After fighting six Bosses in Scholomance, this was the first time they had received Epic equipment.

Alanna’s Embrace, an Epic Mage equipment!

Because there was a special effect of Burning Skill + 1, this item was characterized as a fire equip. The players could not understand why the Ice Mage Ras Frostwhisper would drop fire equipment; he hadn’t used a single fire skill from beginning until the end.

Fat Monkey nearly fainted on the spot and was awoken with a kick.

“I’ve finally seen an Epic equipment; I will finally have Epic equipment. Dreamy, my life is yours. Your wish is my command...”

“Why would I want your life? Just give me a red packet,” Remnant Dream said, shooting him down.

“Hey Dreamy... aren’t I worth more than a few gold coins?’ Fat Monkey was heartbroken.

“The attributes are pretty good; you should find a gem to go with it.”

Lu Li knew the attributes of this item without even looking at it. Unfortunately, it was a level 55 item, so it had to be equipped with a Level Reducing Gem.

In fact, there were many Ice Mages and female players who like this purple robe. The most valuable part of this item wasn’t its attributes, but its appearance!

The same robe would have a different appearance on both genders. Alanna’s Embrace was elegant on the male players, but it was very fashionable for the female Mages.

“Dreamy, loot another Epic item for me!” Fat Monkey urged as he immediately sent a red packet.

The second item was a Leather Armor forThieves called Death’s Clutch.

Death’s Clutch (Armor): Armor 55, Agility +40, Strength +24, Critical Hit +20%, Special Effect 1: Backstab +1, Special Effect 2: After Cheap Shot, gain a 50% damage reduction shield. The effect lasts against up to three skills. Special Effect 3: Exile – prevents the target from making any actions for 2 seconds. The target is made invincible and only one target can be exiled at any time. The target must also be a lower level than the user. Equipment Requirement: Level 55. Durability 268/268.
