The Great Thief Chapter 1533 - Not Going Right

Chapter 1533: Not Going Right

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Sorrowless was a macho sort of guy, and he didn’t know what it ant to give up.

He had previously played a ga where there were no ti limits. As soon as he entered the ga, he didn’t sleep for three days in a row, going from knowing nothing at all to knowing everything there was to know. In a few short weeks, he was regularly in the top three on the rankings and the occupation circles took direct notice of him.

Afterwards, the leadership circles invited him to a few top-level clubs. He joined the Glory Capital club at West Mountain Sunset.

At the ti, Glory Capital was almost already half disbanded. They didn’t even have a proper competitor and the guild couldn’t make ends et. They had long since lost the ability to attract players or to turn a profit.

However, Sorrowless didn’t give up. He lobbied for so lower level players to join to start developing the guild again.

Like Ruling Sword, he did the impossible by leading this guild to beco one of the best. It beca a holy land that players competed with each other to join.

He wasn’t as lucky as Lu Li though. When Sorrowless first entered the leadership circles, he encountered difficulty after difficulty, but no matter how many failures he experienced, he never gave up.

Under his leadership, Glory Capital had walked up to the altar. Under his leadership, Glory Capital embodied the spirit of never giving up. The most basic requirent of leading a successful guild was keeping the style of the group consistent with the leader’s spirit. If you couldn’t keep it consistent, then you were simply a leader, not a spiritual leader.

Even so, Sorrowless knew he couldn’t knock down Ruling Sword’s wall.

Sorrowless had already given the command to attack. His pride and his principles didn’t let him give up straight away.

The chariots rumbled and fired. In a ga set in a Western fantasy, you rarely saw this kind of thing.

Normal artillery, that is, the cheapest kind, would hit the stone walls and the result would be shattering, but now, it was completely different. When this type of artillery hit the walls covered with Bloodvine juice, it just made a dull sound.

Evidently, they couldn’t be too optimistic about the damage this would do.

There were also Fire Bombs and Ice Bombs.

This sort of combination of Ice Bombs and Fire Bombs was usually terrifying. However, apart from Acid, the Black Sea Coast’s Stronghold had nothing to be afraid of at the mont.

The damage of the Spike Bombs was mainly targeted towards the chariots on the top of the wall. The battle hadn’t been going on for long, but a few of Ruling Sword’s chariots had already fallen apart. Lu Li had no choice but to scatter the chariots around a bit.

This was all that Glory Capital could do.

As the battle comnced, Ruling Sword’s mbers continued to douse the wall in Bloodvine juice.

While it still appeared to be all in vain, Glory Capital upheld their fierce offense. It was as if they wouldn’t be satisfied until they used up all the artillery they had brought with them.

“This isn’t normal...” Lu Li muttered as he sat on a chair on top of the wall. With a frown on his face, he was lost in thought. Despite the atmosphere of the rumbling of chariots, all of this was still costing money. Normal artillery didn’t cost a lot, but artillery with special qualities that had gone through production was different.

For example, you had to do quests with the army camps to build up Reputation. Once you reached a certain amount of Reputation, only then would you have the right to buy Fire Bombs.

When you bought them, not only did they cost gold, but they also cost Reputation. Therefore, the number of Fire Bombs each person could buy every week was limited. It was only because Glory Capital had so many people that they could save up enough to use in a battle.

Under normal circumstances, after seeing that it would have no effect, Glory Capital shouldn’t have continued to waste their resources.

After all, they could only fight once a week, so they would still have chances in the future.

Sorrowless wouldn’t give up easily, but he also wasn’t stupid. He should have known which choice to make.

Since it was like this, they still had to keep flaunting their superiority. This only ant that they were stalling for ti, or they had other thods.

“Left Hand, take so people and go protect our Stronghold’s crystal. Rice Ball, you go too. Open a door above the side of the crystal. I suspect they might try and launch a surprise attack on it,” Lu Li instructed as he looked down from the top of the wall. Because there were chariots acting as bunkers, he didn’t know how many people their opponent still had down there.

Lu Li could just fly into soone else’s Stronghold with Hachi Chan. Why couldn’t Glory Capital?

Now, it wasn’t just the two of them who could fly, and it wasn’t just Sesa Rice Ball who could operate the Warlock’s Summoning Portal. Just to be on the safe side, Lu Li couldn’t wait stupidly doing nothing.

“March, you keep watch here. If anything happens, call and I’ll co have a look.”

Lu Li quickly changed into a crow, flapping his wings as he took off into the air and flying a few circles around Glory Capital’s chariots. He didn’t need to co down to know that their opponent’s numbers spelled trouble for them.

“Left Hand, you guys have to be a bit careful; they’ve got 20 to 40 less people there,” Lu Li reported.

Perhaps Glory Capital was worried that they would be discovered, so their numbers didn’t decrease by that much. However, if Lu Li remained unaware of this, then 20 to 40 people would have been enough to launch a surprise attack on the Stronghold crystal.

“We’ve arrived at the crystal. Nothing’s happened,” Cain’s Left Hand quickly replied.

“Hehe, since they haven’t arrived yet, then we can set up an ambush. Rice Ball, open the portal and pull people through. Starting from team 7, call 50 people over to join the ambush. Make sure you destroy all of them,” Lu Li said with a treacherous smile. It was as though he had already seen the expressions of Glory Capital’s people who had co to take them by surprise, but were taken by surprise themselves.

With Sesa Rice Ball, this would naturally be arranged very quickly.

If they could successfully deal with these 20 or 40 people, then they would gain at least a dozen or so pieces of Epic equipnt. In a Stronghold battle, it was the equipnt that attracted Lu Li most.

Defending wasn’t hard; the difficult part was defending the Stronghold and also gaining so equipnt.

Lu Li also flew over and landed on the top of the centre hall. If anyone ca over, he would spot them.

They already had everything; they just needed to wait for Sorrowless to deliver so equipnt!

Ti slowly passed, and after a full 10 minutes, there was still no movent. Even if Lu Li was a really patient person, at that point, he was getting quite anxious.

Those 20 or 40 people couldn’t have left the Stronghold battlefield, so they must have had different targets. Apart from the Stronghold crystal, where else could they go...

They could only claim victory in a Stronghold battle if they destroyed the Stronghold crystal.

“Sothing’s not quite right. Are they ssing with us...? Could it be that they knew they couldn’t win, so they did this to scare us...?” Cain’s Left Hand guessed.

“Do you think Sorrowless is that kind of person?” Lu Li said sourly.

“Um...”

He couldn’t not say anything, but Cain’s Left Hand preferred to believe his own boss wasn’t so tedious as to do this for no reason. Sorrowless was soone with status, but evidently, he wouldn’t do sothing like this.
