Chapter 337: Golden Weapon: Bathiel’s Staff.
Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations
When Bathiel fell, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
This was such a hard-fought battle because there were no shortcuts or strategies that could be taken
advantage of. This fight tested the sheer willpower and strength of the team. The only way to pass
this stage was to defeat as many Water Elentals in the shortest amount of ti possible.
For example, if Lu Li and the others had made the slightest error, Bathiel would have devoured the
5 th Water Elental. This would have ant certain death for the entire party. Azure Sea Breeze
particularly struggled in this fight; he was barely clinging on for life when Bathiel devoured the 4 th
Water Elental.
If the entire team was defeated, they would lose the help of Scout Thaelrid, which would make this
Instance Dungeon impossible to complete.
Luckily, Azure Sea Breeze was very skilled in Instance Dungeons and March Rain was able to
maximize her potential as a priest.
Lu Li needed his teammates for all these First Clears and could never do it alone.
The decisive factor in a party was always the Healer and Main Tank; these two classes were essential
to completing all Instance Dungeons in Dawn. Lu Li’s guidance and strategies only pointed them in
the right direction and unless they were executed well, it would be all for nothing.
Everyone’s EXP bars increased quite significantly since the boss was level 30.
Lu Li was now on 21% EXP at level 27 which placed him at 4 th on the level rankings board. The three
players ahead of him were Azure Sea Breeze, Loneso Flower and March Rain.
These three had surpassed Lu Li because of the Defend the isnera Outpost quest. However, no
one had received the bonus SP reward.
"I’m going to search his corpse." Remnant Dream looked up into the sky as she clawed at Bathiel’s
lifeless body. Others who were passing by would probably think that she was so sort of pervert.
"Go ahead. If we don’t get the Golden Weapon, we’ll sell you off to the rchants," Hachi Chan said.
"Fine, but if it drops, you beco my pet," Remnant Dream replied as she looked at her best friend
expectantly. These two had always had a good relationship, which was why Remnant Dream wanted
her to beco her little pet.
"In your dreams. You can’t even ta players as your pet so stop threatening with your Ta
Skill."
"Hurry up. If you don’t, then I’ll do it," Wandering said impatiently. He was annoyed by the senseless
conversation between the two girls.
"No! I want to do it!" Remnant Dream squealed as she jumped onto the corpse.
The first item was a level 30 Superior Silver equip – Curse of Bathiel. It had a special Cursed effect
and was a great piece of equipnt for Warlocks.
There was only one Warlock in the party, so Sesa Rice Ball happily accepted it.
The second drop was a rare material – Twilight Soul. Although it was very useful, it was also quite
common in a lot of other areas. Even the Twilight Disciples dropped these, which made them very
cheap and not worth selling.
The prices of Rare Materials were based on demand and supply.
If the demand was high and the supply was low, the material would sell for godly prices.
Lu Li rembered from his past life that the rarest material was called Krypton Dog Eye. This was a
material used to craft the level 50 legendary ring. The only way to obtain it was to grind for
countless hours in the Krypton mine – it had a minuscule drop rate. Each Eye could be sold for
$1.7million in real life.
It might sound absurd, but those were the prices that rich people were willing to pay for a virtual
ga, especially those who were rich and were also contending to be the top player.
The third item that dropped was a skill book called Beacon of Light.
Beacon of Light: Your heals, including multi-heals, on other party mbers or raid mbers will also
heal the Beacon of Light target for up to 50% of the amount healed. Your Flash of Light and Holy
Light on the Beacon of Light target will also refund 40% of their mana cost.
This was a very powerful skill which made healing Paladins very strong.
There were currently no Paladin Healers in the Xin Xin rcenary Group.
However, Ruling Sword had thousands of mbers, so Lu Li could easily find soone to give it to.
He was no longer that person who would do anything for money. He realised that the best way to
earn money was to invest ti and effort into a guild so that they could excel in tournants.
Since they had completed the dungeon on Nightmare mode, they would be rewarded with more
loot. Everyone was very excited for the last two items.
They all held their breath as Remnant continued to dig at the corpse.
A long staff was pulled out.
The loot that dropped from boss fights in Dawn wasn’t scattered around the ground like other
gas. You had to physically take it out of the Boss’ body which added to the realness of the ga.
It was a giant staff with a yellow-orange gem – an exact replica of the one that Bathiel held during
the fight.
Bathiel’s Staff – one of only two Gold drops that could be obtained from Blackfathom Deep.
From level 30 to 40, Bathiel’s Staff was considered to be the godliest weapon for DPS Mages. Anyone
who equipped Bathiel’s Staff was considered an expert.
It had a very overpowered Special Effect – Spell Steal.
Spell Steal gave a player the chance to steal a beneficial magic effect from their target. Although a
single buff did not seem like much, the effect was able to strength yourself and weaken your
opponent at the sa ti.
If the Mage in a party had Bathiel’s staff, this would be extrely advantageous for them during
Boss’ berserk mode because they would be able to steal it.
The skill book version of Spell Steal didn’t offer this feature; it was sothing exclusive to the special
effect on Bathiel’s Staff. The special effect on the staff was the upgraded version of the Mage skill.
Comparatively, Lu Li’s Shadow Step on his cape was the weaker version of the Thief skill, Inferior
Shadow Step.
The staff alone made the dungeon extrely worth it as it could be sold for a handso amount of
money.
"I’m good! I’m so good!" Remnant Dream smiled as she hugged the staff. Everyone patted her head
and praised her unendingly.
Lu Li had to admit that she was a lucky charm for the party.
Normally, the only person Loneso Flower cared about was his little sister; he only had her in his
eyes. However, even he couldn’t hold back and bead at Remnant Dream.
The Golden Staff could only be equipped by Mages, and as the only Mage in the party, he was the
ecstatic recipient of it.
His goal was to out-DPS Lu Li. Although he was currently nowhere near Lu Li’s DPS, the Staff
definitely closed the gap between them. However, his main goal right now was to level up to 30 for
the Mage power spike.
Lu Li, just you wait.
After Bathiel was killed, the room faded away and everyone could see clearly again.
Surrounding them were tal cages, each imprisoning a frail and miserable prisoner. They seed
to be bound by so sort of magic, as they were all unconscious. These people were the sacrifices
for Aku’Mai.
Before being fed to Aku’mai they were beaten and tortured.
"Cast a small Blizzard onto them," Lu Li said.
Loneso Flower casted Blizzard without hesitating and the room was imdiately filled with wind
and snow.
