The Great Thief Chapter 1893 - Cupid

Chapter 1893: Cupid

There was sothing similar that occurred twice in one year. One was the western Valentine’s Day, while the other was the eastern Valentine’s day.

Other smaller countries might also have their own similar traditions, but their influence was limited. Furthermore, gas could not have the sa event too many tis, since that would spoil its aning.

The Valentine’s Day within the ga was designed quite well and there were many things to do.

Many people would find a fake partner to spend Valentine’s Day in ga. After all, there was no way for the ga masters to know that they were real or fake couples anyway. However, many players who found fake partners slowly beca a real couple as well.

They found the NPC in charge to send them into the Instance Dungeon, and after paying the fee, they entered.

The first dungeon was the Spider Nest, which was the lowest-levelled instance dungeon in Dawn. Lu Li and Water Fairy could both one-shot the mobs with a normal attack.

Lu Li recalled this as being the first step that he had taken in his newly-reborn life. This dungeon was also his very first First Clear.

Lu Li was responsible for killing the mobs, while Water Fairy was responsible for looting. Although the loot was all low-levelled, worthless materials, this feeling of working together was very couple-like.

On the way to the first Boss, they finally saw the first Lovebird.

The ga supersized the designs of these Lovebirds from their real-world counterparts. They were approximately half a tre long each and had a brownish black head. There was a yellow collar around their necks and their breast was coloured green. Their back and wings were light-green with the tips of the wings being black, their tails being green and their feet being grey.

In the real world, these birds were also called lovebirds. This was because they did not leave their partners for as long as they lived.

Since the Spider Nest was a level 10 Instance Dungeon, the Lovebirds here were all level 10 as well.

Although the Dungeon was on Elite difficulty, it was still unable to withstand Lu Li’s normal attack.

“I’ll loot,” Water Fairy said as she imdiately teleported to the side of the Lovebird.

“Are you saying that I have bad luck?”

Lu Li’s expression was one that was extrely unimpressed.

“How can that be?” Water Fairy felt awkward but managed to keep her smile and composure and continued, “I’ve been the one looting this whole ti. Furthermore, look at my hands, then look at yours. Are your hands any whiter than mine?”

These were all fleeting thoughts, but Lu Li’s attention was instantly diverted to Water Fairy’s little white hands.

There were two Love Red Wires from the first Lovebird. Both of them were transferred into Water Fairy’s storage. Lu Li didn’t care about it. There were two people that he was generous with. One was his own sister and the other was probably this woman in front of him.

This tandem of Lu Li and Water Fairy quickly progressed to Strathol’s Instance Dungeon. By this ti, they had accumulated quite a few Love Red Wires.

After arriving at Strathol, Lu Li couldn’t be the only one fighting. Even if these were small mobs, he was unable to one-shot them any longer. They couldn’t relax when it ca to the Boss either, otherwise, they were in danger of being wiped.

“Let’s go grind the Rivendare’s Deathcharger. It might drop,” Water Fairy suggested.

The two of them proceeded to go and grind for Rivendare’s Deathcharger.

Although it was difficult, Water Fairy and Lu Li were able to purchase this mount with a small price. After all, there was no mount-locking system in place yet.

For the sake of limiting the number of items floating in the market and encouraging everyone to play the ga whole-heartedly, the gaming company decided to implent an equipnt and tool locking system. This system locked most mounts, so items and a few special tools.

This implentation ant that an item that a rewarded item would beco untradeable after 30 minutes of trading it.

Even if there was a 30 minute window to trade it, only party mbers who were in the battle were able to receive it. This caused a wave of complaints from many players, but it was futile.

As a result, Lu Li began to stockpile and hoard as many mounts as he could now and opened a special storage area for them.

When the locking system was implented, there would be a great inflation in the prices of the mounts. At that ti, mounts would be extrely profitable. This was probably the last thing that Lu Li was able to use his knowledge on to be able to profit from buying and selling.

The two of them entered Baron Rivendare’s room, but they didn’t find Rivendare.

Instead, they found a Boss that was not typical of what a Strathol Boss would look like. From its appearance, it just looked like a naked little boy with a pair of wings on his back. In his hands, there was a short bow that was enveloped in a soft light.

“This is...” Water Fairy was shocked.

“This is the Boss, huh?” Lu Li sighed.

“This is a cupid, you uncultured swine,” Water Fairy scolded, unable to help herself. She sighed and looked at the Boss with beaming eyes. “The ga designers have earned their money. This Boss is so cute.

“Kill him! Quick! Surely he’ll drop sothing good!” Lu Li cried out, nearly drooling.

This was a complete surprise. After all, they just expected there to be another Lovebird. They did not expect to see the event’s Boss.

There were four Bosses for the Valentine’s Day event – Cupid, Nice, Matchmaker, Cowherd and the Weaving Maid. The Cowherd and Weaving Maid had the sa cooldown tis, so these two Bosses were counted as one Boss. These Bosses’ levels were affected by the map that they spawned in

The Cupid in front of them was substituting for Baron Rivendare. As such, his level was the sa as the Baron’s.

However, event Bosses were not difficult. After all, there were only two people fighting them. So people even went as far as to find Healing classes, especially Paladins, to be their partners. After all, Paladins were capable of a little DPS and could tank well.

As for these two Thieves, they could only try their best to maintain crowd control on the Cupid.

Fortunately for them, Bosses were susceptible to crowd-control skills. However, they were unable to control the Cupid like they did other players.

Water Fairy was a little reluctant to fight the Cupid. After all, he was a cute little boy.

Lu Li didn’t think that Water Fairy was being unreasonable. After all, he thought that a girl like Water Fairy didn’t like children, but that clearly wasn’t the case. He felt warm inside knowing this.

Fortunately, the Cupid transford into a sinister monster after the battle comnced.

From a class standpoint, he was likely to be a combination of a Hunter and Priest. He would use a healing skill on himself every 10% decrease in HP. Therefore, they needed to interrupt the skill animation each ti.

With two Thieves here, it was not a problem at all. In fact, it was probably overkill.

Hunters fired arrows as their DPS thod. The Cupid’s normal attacks did not deal much damage. The damage was less than 100 per hit on a level 70 player. However, his magic arrows dealt a lot of damage. Each arrow dealt at least 300 damage. In a situation without a healer, this was extrely lethal.

Lu Li and Water Fairy rotated as they each fought the Boss and tanked the damage. Once their HP reached a certain threshold, they would retreat and heal themselves with bandages.
