Chapter 1779: Start of a Dilemma

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

At this time, Lu Li was already exhausted . His second opponent was also one of the Eight Great Thieves, Blood Dagger . There was no doubt that Blood Dagger was a super high level Thief . In his fully equipped state, it looked like he didn’t have to lift a finger to beat Lu Li . On top of that, his HP was still perfectly preserved at 90% .

The next player for Ruling Sword was Moonlight . He had a great presence of mind, and his skills were also pretty good . It was completely expected that Moonlight would defeat Blood Dagger, but he wouldn’t have much HP at the end of the fight . Glory Capital’s Warlock Demigod Asura finished off Moonlight afterwards .

A Paladin like Mu Qiu was perfect for fighting against a Warlock . Mu Qiu bested Demigod Asura and had become the final victor on the stage and didn’t let anyone down .

The final score on the arena was three to two . Ruling Sword was just leading by one point . It was really hard to determine who the final champion would be with such a tiny difference . In the end, they still had to see the results of the group competition .

There was a one hour intermission between the arena competition and the group competition . Both clubs used this time to revise their strategy which they had already finalized before . Things were still looking good on Lu Li’s side . They had gone over their plan in detail over and over again . It was Glory Capital that needed to make some adjustments because they realized that Ruling Sword understood them too well .

“We can see from the equipment Lu Li is wearing that they’ve really researched our Boss super thoroughly,” West Whitehill sighed . “I suspect we’ve got a traitor!” Blood Dagger accused loudly . He really liked to look at things from a dark angle .

“What rubbish are you goin’ on about!” Sorrowless scolded harshly . By this time, it didn’t matter if there was a traitor or not . They couldn’t disrupt their own team before they even faced the enemy .

“Boss, you shouldn’t have used those skills so early . ” West Whitehill daringly advised . Sorrowless was the highest on the command chain in Glory Capital, so he rarely doubted Sorrowless’s decisions . However at this time, what he said really resonated with others who were holding back their feelings .

Because of Darkness Sis, Sorrowless was distracted during the fight .

“It’s my fault . This time I let everyone down,” Sorrowless apologised, going with the flow . He didn’t really give a sincere apology . Everyone simply had no idea that he once planned to get the Shadow Cup and do a trade with Glory Capital .

“But, even though our Boss used those skills, it’s actually not enough to make Lu Li prepare so thoroughly . Maybe they have another source . Couldn’t we chase down the people who sold us weapons and get some info?” Not everyone in Glory Capital was an idiot .

“There’s not enough time now . We’ll deal with them later . The key thing is what should we do now?” West Whitehill asked .

“We could change back to our previous equipment,” Blood Dagger suggested hesitantly .



“I think that’s a bit too drastic,” Sorrowless said, “We’re not showing them all that we’ve got . The equipment we got is only a part of what we are . I don’t think that Lu Li’s so-called preparation is enough to take away every chance we have of winning . All of our preparations can’t have all been in vain . Haven’t you thought about it? If we changed to our previous equipment, our power will drop a lot and we’d have an even smaller chance of winning . ”


If you weren’t comparing a few players but were comparing their Elite group’s strength as a whole, Ruling Sword couldn’t even begin to compare . There were too many Elite groups in Glory Capital, farming Instance Dungeons again and again, having a dozen or even a 100 times more Epic equipment than Ruling Sword .

It was a shame that the competition wasn’t about comparing the total power level of a guild, but just the power of a few people . Because of this, the equipment of Ruling Sword’s few players was evidently extremely important . If it wasn’t for Glory Capital getting a First Clear of a Wild Boss, they were simply in no position to challenge Ruling Sword . Other clubs were pretty much in the same position too .

This had become a vicious circle . They would get the First Clear and get the good equipment, and then use the good equipment to get the First Clear . So although Ruling Sword’s development wasn’t massive with a hundred Elite teams springing up overnight, someone with an insightful eye could see that they were taking the slow but very steady approach .

First Clears and competitions— as long as they could capitalize on these two things, no one could keep Ruling Sword down, and Ruling Sword could rely on these to develop their build slowly . Slowly but surely, they would become an unstoppable force . Of course, this would take time .

Looking at the history of the game, every single dominating group in the game took a long time to get to that stage . Some even moved to different games .

This wasn’t to look down on Ruling Sword though . They were catching up to Glory Capital and steadily overtaking them . It really was a very long journey even if they got another two championships!



Lu Li had never thought that in such a short time, they’d overtake Glory Capital . What they needed to do was to make sure they were taking each and every step of the way well .

As Glory Capital rushed to make up their new strategy, there was actually dispute going on Ruling Sword’s side too – it wasn’t about the players, but a dispute between two different strategies . The group battles in Dawn were generally five on fives . It would be considered the end of a battle when everyone on one side died, or if they surrendered .

So the key in every battle was who to kill first . Under normal circumstances, they’d kill that tempting healer . As long as they killed the opponent’s Healer, then the battle was pretty much half won .

There were also times when they could go kill the Mage or Warlock with a high damage output . It was easier if they were wearing cloth armour . If the opponent had one less member, then they’d have a better chance of winning .

According to their original plan, Lu Li and his team chose to focus their damage on Sorrowless or West Whitehill, depending on the circumstances .

However, through spending time analyzing Glory Capital’s past battles, as well as collecting info on their equipment, Lu Li felt that this strategy was increasingly questionable .

The hammer that West Whitehill held in his hand was a legendary equipment . This hammer had a special effect called Golden Protection . It could give a golden shield to themselves or a designated person, and for almost eight seconds, they wouldn’t receive any damage at all .



This was a super powerful Special Effect, even more powerful than restoring all of your HP instantly .

That’s why Lu Li and his team set up a new strategy . The strategy was that Ruling Sword wouldn’t run with their double damage dealer team . Instead, they’ll have three fighters, along with a strong mage . As for the healer, they chose the stronger and more mobile Innocent Child, subbing off March Rain .

This way, they would increase their output and it wouldn’t be easy to get rid of their healer, so they had more space to keep attacking . But if they did things this way, there’d also be more variables . As soon as something failed, there was no turning back, so it was a risky plan .

These two strategies weren’t perfect, so everyone was in a bit of a dilemma .
