The Great Thief - Chapter 1679

Chapter 1679: 1679

 “I don’t know why you freed him, but we have to tell you something . My master…he’s not really one to speak,” Highlord Demitrian warned the adventurers .

 “The Wind Prince right? We know,” Azure Sea Breeze dismissed the warning with a wave of his weapon in his hand, “Actually we’re not really into talking much either . ”

 “Good, good . If you’re really able to defeat him, maybe I can gain freedom too . This cursed land is too barren . I just wanted to enslave a more powerful elemental lifeform . I never thought I’d have chosen the legendary wind prince . Even if he’s already heavily weakened now, I still wouldn’t be able to deal with him,” Highlord Demitrian lamented with sad tears .

 “Mate, I think you can help alongside us,” Azure Sea Breeze invited .

 “My magic’s only strong enough to let him out, the rest will be up to you, you’ve got so many people…” the warlock replied, sounding willing but unable to help .

 On top of the simple Summon Circle, the materials that Azure Sea Breeze provided were placed – he provided two sets of materials . One was materials for making weapons, and the other was for this Summon Circle . The blessing of the Thunderfury Windseeker made the sword powerful, not simply because of the sword itself . The sword blessed by the Thunderfury Windseeker needed to seal a powerful wind element before it became the best quality it could be . Otherwise, it was just an ordinary sword .

  “Who dares to go against the will of the wild elements!” The monster that called out was extremely scary . He seemed to have a relatively blurry top half, while his bottom half was a cluster of whirlwinds that didn’t stop stirring wildly . Opening his two arms revealed wind elements that continued to congregate . As soon as he came out, it looked like he was one who had a really bad temper .

 A wind prince like this couldn’t win anyone’s sympathies .

 “He’s just a damned spirit, but he’s full of brutality . You better be careful,” Highlord Demitrian said as he weakly lay on the ground, shifting slowly towards the outskirts .

 “You lowly thing, you actually betrayed me!” a dagger of wind whistled at Highlord Demitrian’s head . The feeble warlord could only stare at the dagger of wind cutting into his head . This was a battle between NPCs, and it didn’t follow the rules of damage between players at all . Under normal circumstances, this dagger of wind would be able to cut off Highlord Demitrian’s head and it’d fall off, not matter how high his HP was .

 “Bang!”

 A figure appeared in front of Highlord Demitrian, blocking his way . The dagger of wind lashed on this figure, and it sent him flying straight away . In the end, both of them were out of the scene .

 The figure was none other than Lu Li . This dagger of wind which should have been able to One Shot him, but it didn’t do any damage to him, because he was able to use Gale Steps . Being sent flying was real, and it was also true that he had full health, but Highlord Demitrian did lose a bit of health from being hit by Lu Li .

 Highlord Demitrian couldn’t die . If he died, then who would get the sword blessed by Thunderfury Windseeker .

 When this quest first started, some people didn’t protect Highlord Demitrian well . The result was the NPC’s death, and after he died, even if they killed Prince Thunderaan, there was no way for them to continue the quest . Another NPC would spawn after they died . However, the new NPC would break the agreement, refusing to acknowledge the materials given before . The players could do nothing but to collect the materials again .

 Collecting the materials for a wind sword would need nothing less than all the elite members of a club to do all they could, and to get two sets of equipment was practically a life mission . Lu Li didn’t want Azure Sea Breeze to have to pay his own ransom . Prince Thunderaan didn’t have any more chances to hurt Highlord Demitrian, because Azure Sea Breeze had already pulled his aggro .

 A Boss more intelligent would still have to follow the system’s rules, and at this moment Prince Thunderaan was just a savage ghost . He angrily dropped down his wind-magic-type dagger of wind in torrents, but it was blocked by Azure Sea Breeze with a big shield . It wasn’t that he didn’t do damage, but it was because there was a whole heap of healers standing behind Azure Sea Breeze .

 As long as there was enough defense and HP, this group was unbeatable .

 Prince Thunderaan didn’t have many skills . The elegant demeanor by which he attacked Ragnaros with back then was effectively all he had . It’s said that most of his strength had been sealed up in those two pieces of magic equipment, and the rest was pretty much completely sucked up by Ragnaros . So, if nothing went horribly wrong, there wasn’t a big chance that Azure Sea Breeze could fail this quest . Unless someone in the group was being troublesome .

 When normal people did this quest, they needed to call friends or hire some mercenaries to protect them . Azure Sea Breeze had no need to do this . People from the three guild alliance were helping here, and they didn’t have to be asked to help . In a bit more than ten minutes, Prince Thunderaan’s health reached zero . His final berserk was of no use, but he wasn’t completely dead yet . Finally, he changed into pure wind energy that was collected up by Highlord Demitirian .

 “Alright, a great success! I guess I’m free now . Haha!” Highlord Demitirian cheered happily .

 Lu Li was irked though . You’re happy for nothing, as a quest NPC, you’re stuck in an endless cycle .

 “You said you would make this stuff into a weapon . ” Before Azure Sea Breeze even put down his weapons, he was filled with suspicion, looking at Demitirian, an evil warlord . The original reason this guy came to Silithus’ Crystal Valley was to enslave wind elements, and now the strongest wind element was in his hands .

 As soon as the Highlord went back on his promise, the flustered and exasperated Azure Sea Breeze decided firmly that it was going to be a battle to the death with him .

 “Don’t worry . Right now, I hate wind elements the most . They’re nightmares, I don’t ever want to see wind elements ever again . I can make the weapon for you now . Come along child,” Highlord Demitrian reassured, hobbling to the cave where he lived .

 Since he was enslaved by the wind elements, he could never leave Crystal Valley again . This place had become his home .

 It was very rare for a warlock to be a blacksmith . Demitrian probably wasn’t an ordinary blacksmith . So Lu Li was actually even more interested in Highlord Demitrian’s blacksmithing than the wind sword .

 “I’m also a blacksmith . Maybe I can help?” Lu Li asked, taking out his forging hammer!

 This thing was useless for helping the blacksmith master make the magic weapon . Demitrian saw it and entered into deep thought, before sighing and saying, “I haven’t seen this hammer for many years . Those who used it are pretty much all gone now . ”

 “I inherited this hammer, hoping it can be used and brought back to its former glory,” Lu Li said humbly .

 “Alright then, follow me then . ” Highlord Demitrian was actually very advanced in years . He had depleted his magic today, so his steps were a bit wobbly . Lu Li and Azure Sea Breeze supported him on both sides as they walked up the steps .

 “My method of blacksmithing is different to what’s usually done . It’s been passed on in our trade called the Casting Spirit,” Demitrian said, evidently very satisfied with these two guys’ performance .
