Chapter 1669: Meeting the Princess Again

Enthrall wouldn’t admit that he and Azure Sea Breeze were of the same profession. He was a Berserker, not an Anti-Warrior.

Azure Sea Breeze wasn’t happy for too long. The opponent’s Hunter, Feather Enthusiast, evidently knew how to deal with Azure Sea Breeze.

He was flying a kite, fighting Azure Sea Breeze the same way that he would fight a Boss. He even packed up his pets, in case they got hurt from the rebound damage, but also to prevent Azure Sea Breeze from gaining another source of HP.

After Azure Sea Breeze was sent off, Mu Qiu still didn’t make an apperance.

Rather, it was Lonesome Flower.

Prince Flowe, Big Prince Flower, Big Uncle, Sister Devotee – these were all nicknames for him that the audiences shouted. In fact, Lonesome Flower wasn’t promiscuous in any way. He rarely spoke with any girls outside of the First Clearing Team.

The reason they shouted ‘Big Uncle’ was because his sister, March Rain, was so beautiful that she was lusted after by countless players.

As for ‘Sister Devotee’, that was also true.

When Lonesome Flower first entered the game, he was a novice too. The first time that Lu Li met this pair of siblings was when Lonesome Flower was being assaulted. He was a mess as a novice back then.

Then, he slowly adjusted to the game, and hung out with professional players all the time.

Lonesome Flower’s mechanics started to gradually improve.

He probably couldn’t compare with his naturally talented sister, but with his superb equipment, he was definitely a terrifying mobile fortress out in the Wild. Many people simply couldn’t even get close to him.

Feather Enthusiast knew Lonesome Flower. He, of course, was afraid of standing up against him.

He could only rely on his slightly longer-distance range to kite Lonesome Flower to a dead end. This was the ideal, but there were always some differences between the ideal and reality. If Lonesome Flower was an ordinary Mage then he would probably be dead.

Unfortunately, Lonesome Flower was a professional Mage with superb equipment and amazing skills.

In reality, his equipment was no lesser than Sorrowless’.

This was also Lu Li’s first time in seeing Lonesome Flower’s full graceful bearing. His series of skills had pretty much drowned his opponent, and damage was continuously being dealt.

“It’s easy to deal with him,” Lu Li said, showing off in front of his girlfriend. “As long as you can find one Thief that’s good at using controlling skills, then you can tease him to death.”

“Why are you always thinking about how to deal with people?!” Water Fairy asked angrily.

Azure Sea Breeze and Lonesome Flower were busy helping her fight the traitor. Whose side was he on?

After this, Blue Universe sent out their Thief, Post-Mortem Cook. He had evidently seen what type of person Lonesome Flower was. Only through controlling him could he prevent this fortress from having his way.

“Post-Mortem’s abilities are not bad,” Water Fairy commented. She knew this player relatively well.

“No use. Flower has a piece of equipment that grants him immunity to three control skills.” Lu Li also knew Lonesome Flower well. Nearly all the equipment on Lonesome Flower was distributed through his hand.

That piece of equipment would grant Lonesome Flower at least 15 seconds of damage output.

Lu Li always thought that putting all this equipment on Lonesome Flower was a little wasteful. It was a shame that Fat Monkey didn’t need it at all, otherwise, it would be given to him.

Post-Mortem Cook lost quite badly. He was trying to control Lonesome Flower before he died. If it was a Thief like Lu Li or Water Fairy, they wouldn’t have used as much effort as he did.

The open challenge finished very quickly. Other than Fat Monkey, Ruling Sword had sent players that were pretty much all non-professional PVP players.

Azure Sea Breeze’s appearance was essentially made for humour. He got rid of Eththrall, then was killed by Feather Enthusiast. These two rounds were complete reversals of the other. In one round, he had the absolute advantage, while in the other he was at an absolute disadvantage.

Team battle!

The format of the Donghua Cup was 5v5, and there were not substitutes.

Blue Universe had a lineup of a Warrior, Mage, Priest, Paladin and Hunter, while Ruling Sword had three Mages, a Paladin and a Warrior. The former had a more formal 5v5 lineup, while the latter looked a little strange, no matter how you justified it.

The Tank was Azure Sea Breeze, who took the lead and rushed to the front.

Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him. Even the ghosts knew that he was as hard as stone, so it would be a waste of time in beating him.

As for Mu Qiu, Fat Monkey, Lonesome Flower and Short Circuit, the four of them would go and one-shot the priest facing them – Almond Parfait.

“Hang on, hang on! Parfait… ugh Parfait, how come you can’t hang on?” Feather Enthusiast couldn’t help but scold him. Why did their Priest drop dead from a face-to-face encounter?

“Stuff you! Why don’t you try and hang on, huh!?”

The four of them focused on him and he was killed without any time to react.

“Mu Qiu has a weapon with really high attack.”

Wendelian on the commentary desk felt a chill down her spine. She was also a Priest, so from one look she could tell how many measures Almond Parfait had taken to avoid being one-shotted in the first round.

However, the power of Mu Qiu’s weapon was far too high. Two slices had cut out half of his target’s HP.

“Greatsword of the Brotherhood,” Nine Phoenix sighed.

Mu Qiu’s weapon really got people to marvel it. It was could be said that it was one of the strongest weapons in the current edition of Dawn. Also, there was currently only one; the other clubs couldn’t farm it no matter how hard they tried.

Blue Universe’s survivability had dropped immensely and the rest of the players were nearly dead. Ruling Sword had appeared to win with an overwhelming advantage. Everyone was naturally ecstatic, except for Azure Sea Breeze.

He was running back and forth in the arena, but not a single person was willing to give him any attention.

There wasn’t anyone hitting him, and neither was he able to hit anyone else. It was as if he was a completely irrelevant person.

“Okay, the competition is nearly over. We’re nearly done watching. We can go back and continue First Clearing,” Lu Li urged. The match had gone so smoothly, and he believed that the Instance Dungeon would go just as well.

Tomorrow would be the new week. Lu Li wanted to kill the later Bosses as quickly as he could. If he waited until next week, he would have to start again from scratch.

Ahn’Qiraj Temple’s fifth Boss was Princess Huhuran.

A majority of children grew up listening to stories of princesses and princes. Whilst admiring the beauty of princesses and the bravery of princes, girls aspired to be the princesses in these stories, while the boys would hope to marry them.

Of course, for Lu Li, his childhood had no fairy tales.

However, in order to make his sister happy, he had also read a lot of similar stories. At the very least, he knew that these fairy tales were meant to be happy.

Yet, the princesses in the game were not like those in fairy tales that waited for prince charming to save them. They all had their own characteristics and personality traits.

The princesses in games were all vastly different from each other. Some were medievally-styled with long skirts and gentle demeanour, while others completely subverted expectations in both clothing and behaviour.

Dawn didn’t have just a single princess, and not all of them were the conventional type.

The weirdest of course was a wild boar found wandering in the Elwynn Forest Farm. It was suppressed by players because of wrecking a cabbage patch.

Then, there was the Black Dragon Princess, who was the core antagonist of the Alliance’s main storyline.

Theradras…she had an even more resounding name as Princess Maraudon.

Princess Myzael was also known as the Earth Princess. Players first found her in the Arathi Highlands’. After a series of obstacles, they successfully rescued her, only to find that she was a little bigger in size than the typical princess. She was also someone who would turn hostile instantly, so there was no other choice but to kill her off.

Lu Li had also saved a small Gnome princess from a large gorilla.

Princess Yauj was the mother of the family of Bosses. Lu Li and the others just killed them not too long ago. Now, they had bumped into Princess Huhuran. She was a gigantic insect that could fly. Apparently, she was the daughter of Twin Emperors.

This title of princess was truly not worth that price.

Lu Li doubted whether this game had a princess that met normal aesthetic standards.
