Chapter 1685: Justice

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

There were many low-levelled players here. Not everyone liked to follow the normal method of grinding different monsters to level up.

As for raising their levels from doing quests, that was a pipe dream. Unless they had extremely high Charisma values, it wouldn’t be possible to raise their levels from doing quests alone. Most people would need to rely on grinding monsters to gain EXP.

There were also many people who came here for business purposes.

Stronger players would party up with four other weaker players in a party and charge them for power-levelling. Each player would pay a certain number of silver coins. In a day, players would be able to earn around 100 gold, which was already a much higher pay than normal workers.

However, power-levelling was a Mage specialty. Other classes, even with good items and mechanics, wouldn’t be able to grind the monsters in the Scarlet Monastery at the speed and efficiency of a Mage. If it took three to five hours just for one run, then they might as well work some other mediocre jobs in real life.

Of course, there were also players who brought their friends over to power-level, so they just partied up with other people as well.

Lu Li entered the weapon vault first and he found that the rates of gathering the souls of elite monsters were much higher than normal monsters. This far exceeded his expectations. He ‘only’ needed around 80 monsters to gather one soul.

How pitiful. He had already realised his own misfortune.

After cleaning the vault, he received his third soul. Unfortunately, the two souls that he obtained in the vault were not Boss souls. Boss souls were obviously harder to obtain as well.

Besides the Instance Dungeon, Lu Li was nearly killed outside.

This couldn’t be right. He had a lot of HP and the damage that he received was negligible. After all, he did have an emblem that added 200 to all Attributes, although there weren’t any unique effects. However, the HP that it added was significant. Lu Li’s HP exceeded 5000, which could contend with the average Berserker.

Even so, he was noticeably damaged.

He had taken a few hundred damage!

The people who attacked him also paused for a moment. From what they saw, Lu Li obviously did not belong to whatever faction they were targeting.

“Why’d you attack me?” Lu Li innocently asked.

“It seems like we made a mistake. Let’s leave him alone. He’s only a Thief anyway, so he can’t steal our business,” one of the Mages piped up, discussing the problem with his teammates.

“Kill him!” another Mage yelled, not caring about Lu Li.

Since they all agreed on the same outcome, these people wouldn’t offend their own friends for the sake of a Thief who they had no affiliation with.

This was a perfect example of ants biting an elephant to death. However, these people weren’t even comparable to ants.

Lu Li immediately used Gale Steps to avoid being damaged, then entered Stealth.

“Gale Steps! Oh crap!”

These Mages weren’t stupid, since they at the least knew of Gale Steps.

For Lu Li and his associates, Gale Steps was a common skill. If the skill book dropped in the dungeons, then no one would need it, so it was usually just thrown into the guild storage and sold to other club members.

However, most of the ordinary players didn’t even have the skill yet.

“Flush him out.”

The lead Mage immediately cast Blizzard in front of him, trying to bring Lu Li out of Stealth. The other Mages followed his lead and covered the area with blasts and explosions.

Some of the lower-levelled players who just exited the dungeon were caught in the blasts. The players grinding here were usually around level 30, so they couldn’t handle the damage from a level 60 Mage.

Corpses started appearing gradually on the ground. However, none were the Thief that they were looking for.

“Why’d we start fighting? He seems really strong.”

One of the Mages was frustrated.

“We’ve already used so many skills, yet he hasn’t been damaged much. His items must be really good. If we can kill him and make all of his items drop, we would hit the absolute jackpot!” the lead Mage cried out.

“Oh yeah! That’s right!”

The other players’ eyes immediately widened, until someone interrupted them.

“Come at me if you have a porblem! Why are you killing the innocents?”

A Mage wearing a blue robe appeared in front of the dungeon where Lu Li was standing when he had just exited the dungeon. This sight angered the lead Mage.

It seemed to be so scripted.

By ‘innocents’ did he mean himself?

Lu Li was planning on entering the dungeon after avoiding these Mages, but he stopped. He thought about it and realised that he was actually innocent. The first attack was an accident, but the pursuit after the initial attack was not an accident anymore.

“Hehe…He still dares to come out. Kill him as well! The item that dropped just then was not bad either!” the lead Mage laughed loudly.

The blue-robed Mage was going to re-enter the Instance Dungeon, since he was outnumbered. However, he saw that there were innocent players caught in the crossfire, so he entered the battle too.

“I’m bringing newbies into the dungeon for free. How are we obstructing you? You guys are just bullies.”

“We just don’t like you.”

This clearly was not the first time for the team of Mages. All of their PVP skills were quite decent.

The blue-robed Mage didn’t stand a chance. If it wasn’t for their desire to flush Lu Li out, they would have already killed him.

Lu Li remained stuck to a wall that was just outside the range of Blizzard. He was just watching the battle, marvelling at the existence of such a benevolent guy. He ahd seen nice people before, but people who were nice to this level were not a common sight at all. Not only did he not charge people to power-level them, but he was also willing to put himself in danger for the sake of strangers.

“Bunch of evil bullies! Come at me!”

At this moment, a few players suddenly joined the battle.

The targets were clearly the Mages who wanted to kill Lu Li. Were these players the so-called ‘good Samaritans?’

Unfortunately, these players were much too weak. They were all around level 30, so as soon as they struck by the Blizzard, they just died.

“Don’t come here! Run!”

“Big bro, we’re not scared!”

Lu Li was speechless. It was a scene straight out of the movie, but what could he do? These weaker players immediately died as soon as they entered the battlefield.

“I’ll go all out!” the blue-robed Mage cried in despair. He changed his tactic into one of both defense and offence, but it was clear that he was fully committing himself.

This again? This line was a classic line from dramas.

Lu Li sighed and swapped out his current emblem. He didn’t particularly admire this drama unfolding and the characters within it. However, he realised that he was also a victim.

As a victim, he wanted justice. This was normal.
