The Great Thief

Although the Instance Dungeon was on Elite Difficulty, a First Clear was still a First Clear. The reward wasn’t lessened because it was set to Elite Difficulty, so Lu Li was looking forward to it.

When Lu Li saw the word ’Disarm’, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Disarm: Instant Cast, Ultimate Skill. Reduces the target’s armor depending on the number of combo points for a 10 second duration. 120 second cooldown.

1 point: 5% Armor

2 point: 10% Armor

3 point: 15% Armor

4 point: 20% Armor

5 point: 25% Armor

Lu Li didn’t hesitate to learn this skill before spending four Skill Points to raise it to level 5.

After the upgrade, its Armor reduction effect significantly improved.

Lu Li had heard of this skill before in his past life, which was why he upgraded it without a second thought.

Disarm: Instant Cast, Ultimate Skill. Reduces the target’s armor depending on the number of combo points for a 10 second duration. 120 second cooldown.

1 point: 10% Armor

2 point: 20% Armor

3 point: 30% Armor

4 point: 40% Armor

5 point: 50% Armor

The Armor reduction had doubled!

If he managed to build up five combo points, he could lower his opponent’s Armor by half for 10 seconds.

Aaginst a Cloth Armored class, ten seconds would be more than enough for Lu Li to kill them.

Of course, this was assuming that there was no one there to protect them. However, no one in Dawn was that foolish – you couldn’t simply chase someone down and lower their Armor to kill them.

Nevertheless, this Disarm skill book was still a rare find.

Before heading into the match, Lu Li went to complete the quest of the temple and finally obtained the Dragon Blood Essence of Eranikus. Everyone then gave their quest items to Hachi Chan. The Instance Dungeon had been quite beneficial and since the Instance Dungeon Scroll had come from her, so they didn’t want to take her gold.

She had also claimed that after her dragon absorbed the Dragon Blood Essence, it would be able to fly into the sky.

No matter what Hachi Chan thought, Lu Li didn’t believe it anyway.

They would have to wait for at least another year for flying mounts, and even then, they would be limited to a few areas. Lu Li was a Druid in his previous life and it had taken him a lot of effort to start flying. He didn’t even have the most basic flying mount.

He quickly rushed to the arena, arriving there just as the match was about to begin.

”What took you so long? We’re about to go in,” Moonlight said in relief after seeing Lu Li arrive.

”It’s my turn; you better not take it. Oh yeah, who is the guest this time?” Lu Li casually asked. In a high-quality match between Ruling Sword and Wings of Dawn, the invited guest would definitely be an expert.

”You definitely won’t be able to guess it,” Moonlight said. He was usually quite straightforward and didn’t like to play games like this.

Lu Li saw that he wasn’t acting like his usual self and had a hunch.

”It’s not Water Fairy is it? If it is, that would purely be a coincidence.”

”I didn’t say it wasn’t a coincidence,” Moonlight sneered.

Water Fairy was responding to similar questions from the commentators.

”I think this is just a coincidence, but I am honored to participate in the showdown between Ruling Sword and Wings of Dawn.”

”So from a sentimental perspective, would you be biased towards Lu Li?” Pure White Season asked.

Water Fairy was speechless.

”Season, you really get on my nerves when you ask things like that again.”

Everyone already knew that their private relationship was good, but even in her irritation, Water Fairy spoke with elegance. Most of the males in the audience had already sent their gifts.

The audience was dominated by males. When they heard that Water Fairy would be the guest commentator, they immediately bought their tickets.

It was likely that the tickets for this match had sold out the quickest.

Regardless of what the outcome was, watching Water Fairy and listening to her few words was worth the ten silver coins. It was even more satisfying than defeating a Boss.

”Alright, who do you think they will send out first then?” Pure White Season had dropped her line of questioning.

”No matter who is playing, I think it will be a fantastic game.”

This was what the guests regularly said. Regardless of whether it was Water Fairy or someone else, they didn’t want to speak their mind, for fear of being wrong.

It was Lu Li who was the unusual guest.

Of course, Lu Li had confidence in Ruling Sword and in himself.

As for the Wings of Dawn, Lu Li guessed that it would be Elevenless or their star Hunter player.

When Lu Li got on stage, he saw a Warrior standing there in golden Armor. It really was Elevenless from Wings of Dawn, but his outfit was little over the top. He looked like a God of War.

There was no such thing as full-body Armor in Dawn. Armor was separated into different components: Helmet, Shoulder Pads, Breastplates, Belts, Pants and Boots.

In order to achieve this golden effect, he needed to find matching equipment with the same color. However, this was a pointless exercise – it didn’t matter what you wore if the properties were bad.

Even so, Lu Li believed that Elevenless wouldn’t just focus on the looks.

Which meant…

As soon as the start of the match was announced, Lu Li’s figure flashed and suddenly appeared behind Elevenless. A number of damage values rapidly floated up.

This move was so abrupt that it completely subverted the expectations of the audience. Elevenless was completely unprepared for this.

However, this kind of damage was meaningless because it was simply too low.

”Has Elevenless cast some damage reduction skills?” Dark Wind asked what was on everyone’s minds.

”The Thief has moved in so quickly that I don’t think he had a chance. He didn’t even go into Stealth; how would there be enough time?” Pure White Season subconsciously disagreed, but her tone was not resolute because she couldn’t explain what she was seeing.

Lu Li cast Shadowstrike and only took 23HP from Elevenless.

Even if he was fighting a level 50 Boss, he wouldn’t deal this little damage.

”I think,” Water Fairy began, then continued seriously, ”Elevenless didn’t have a chance to respond, but Lu Li’s damage is so low because his Armor is too high.”
