Chapter 1086: Flarethorn

Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations
The Boss after Lefty was called Grizzle, who was a huge fighting Troll. His originally green body was now blood red because of the countless battles he had participated in.
Perhaps he had spent too long in the Abyss, but there were some strange spots that gradually appeared on Grizzle’s body. He covered these up with tattoos, but they didn’t affect his performance in the arena.
This Boss was probably going to wipe their team a few times, but as long as they worked out why they were getting wiped, they would be able to overcome this challenge. No matter how difficult the fight became, Lu Li had made it clear that there was always a solution to overcome it, and he had won the admiration of many star players by doing so.
However, what was even more unexpected was the item that this Boss would drop.
Flarethorn!
Although it was only a Dark Gold item, it had good Attributes and a flashy appearance once it was equipped.
Lu Li also had a valuable item called the Flame of Ragnaros in storage.
The Flame of Ragnaros could Enchant a weapon and give it a fiery look. Even though it didn’t provide any bonuses to the Attributes, but players were willing to pay a large amount of gold coins for it.
The Flarethorn’s flaming effect was not as impressive as the Flame of Ragnaros, as it was just a dagger. The Flame of Ragnaros was capable of enchanting any weapon and its effect was much more pronounced.
Before the Flame of Ragnaros was readily available, Flarethorn was one of the most sought-after items in the market.
It was just too difficult to acquire the Flame of Ragnaros. Even if you had thousands of teams farming it once a week, you wouldn’t necessarily find one after three months. Lu Li had just been incredibly lucky when he acquire this item. Perhaps that was why he was so unlucky normally.
“Hey, this is a Magic Dagger,” Unforgettable Maple noticed.
Even with the Warlocks, there was only four Magic damage players here, so Unforgettable Maple thought that there was a reasonable chance that he would get it.
He wasn’t young anymore and he wanted to find a partner. This item was so trendy that it was bound to help him find someone.
“You can’t say that you need this item. Since no one can use it, we should all be allowed to roll for it,” Elevenless immediately said with disdain. A dagger could be equipped by any profession, so why did the Attributes of the dagger matter?
In reality, these star players were interested in trendy equipment too, as long as it would help them pull a crowd of spectators.
After Elevenless said this, everyone else thought it made sense. The Attributes weren’t good enough so no one really needed this item. They all also wanted to mess with Unforgettable Maple, so everyone agreed to roll for it.
“Let’s all just roll then.”
Lu Li didn’t care. His luck was so bad that he didn’t have any expectations when he rolled.
Rolling for something was one of the most popular methods of apportionment in Dawn. Most players would roll for equipment, but it could also be used for other situations, like if two Thieves found a single Treasure Chest.
There were also some gamblers that liked using the roll mechanic to gamble. Although gambling was not technically allowed, it was hard to verify when they used the roll mechanic. Sometimes, there would be millions of dollars at stake and in the future, the game company would take stricter measures to combat this.
As of now, everyone was rolling for Flarethorn.
Lu Li had rolled 46 points and was made ineligible as the roll was out of 100 points.
As the rolls were revealed one by one, March Rain was eventually crowned the winner with the highest score of 99 points. This was one point less than the highest possible score.
Unforgettable Maple was sad, but his grief didn’t last for very long. It seemed that he had discovered something funny and couldn’t stop laughing.
“Maple, what are you laughing at? Have you gone crazy?” Elevenless was speechless.
“I’m laughing at someone who would have received the item if not everyone was rolling for it, hahahaha.”
Unforgettable Maple was naturally talking about Sorrowless, who was the only Magic player that supported the decision of everyone rolling for the item.
Sorrowless had rolled the highest number among the four Magic players.
Originally, he wanted to make Unforgettable Maple feel bad, but he didn’t expect that it would backfire like this. He had an ugly expression on his face.
At the end of the arena fights, a door opened which led into a room underneath the arena. Houndmaster Grebmar was guarding the location with a pack of hounds.
This level 56 Boss was the first Iron Dwarf to successfully use Tame Beast, which later became a useful skill for them. He was also carrying a pair of axes named Bloodtooth and was surrounded by a pack of
Bloodhounds which could be counted as his weapons.
“Would you like to take turns commanding the next few Bosses?” Wendelian asked. He seemed like he wanted something to do.
“Sure, you can go first.”
Lu Li didn’t mind. In fact, it was common for ordinary players to step up from time to time. All sorts of things could happen to a team each year, and sometimes the new player would do a better job.
It was unwise to think that once you were chosen as commander, that position was secured.
Everyone was a proud player, so no one would vote for you just because you thought you were the
protagonist. You had to actually be quite strong to hold authority over the other players.
“There are too many Bloodhounds; I think we should clear them out first.”
Wendelian was allowed to be the interim commander and began analyzing the situation at hand. Everyone listened to what she had to say and nodded. However, it was a waste of words as everyone could see such an obvious thing.
Lu Li shook his head secretly. Did this guy really think it was going to be that easy?
According to Wendelian’s instructions, Azure Sea Breeze rushed over to the group of six Bloodhounds. All of these were level 55 Elite monsters, so it was no problem for him to tank.
After he had pulled the monsters, the rest of them started dealing damage.
“Roar!”
The six monsters obviously couldn’t withstand the attacks of such a large group of players.
Unexpectedly, the rest of the monsters turned and rushed over to attack when they heard the roar of
their companions.
In just a few seconds, the team was completely annihilated. Only Lu Li and Water Fairy survived as they were Thieves and could use their mobility skills to escape the aggro range of the bloodhounds.
“Wendelian, are you sure you can do it?” Water Fairy looked her companion who had been bitten to
death by the bloodhounds.
There was nothing wrong with dying in the game, but getting killed by a dog must have bruised her pride.
