Chapter 250
Mastering the shadows had never been on Lu Li’s mind . He was never confident about his luck and only wished to maintain the advantages of the Supreme Ring .


Special effects aside, the attribute of Critical Strike +25% had already satisfied him .
“As a token of my gratitude, I’m willing to do whatever I can within my powers to repay your generosity . ”
It wouldn’t be right to believe that a price did not have to be paid, as nothing comes for free .
If Lu Li didn’t give anything this time, he would lose Remulos’ good impression of him, even if the ring was to be upgraded to level four .
Even Carolina would be disappointed with Lu Li .
Remulos looked at Lu Li and weird, yet enchanting smile crept across his face . Remulos and his kind had always been very graceful and charming .
Otherwise, there would be no way for a Goddess like Elune, a Goddess who overlooked all mortals, to show affection towards Malorne, The White Stag .
“You’re such a gorgeous Thief . Little one, your persistence has touched me; let’s talk first about how to upgrade this ring . Father’s work shouldn’t be sealed under the abyss . ”
“I’m ready to listen,” Lu Li said in relief .
“People call it The Supreme Ring, but this name originated from a joke . Its real name is actually &%¥*&……” Remulos spoke of the name using ancient Ent language, which was hard to decipher . He knew that Lu Li didn’t understand, so he continued with his explanation, “It means Slaughterer; it exists to kill . Do you understand that?”
“Of course . ”


Lu Li silently repeated the word ‘Slaughterer’ . It felt no different to The Supreme Ring; both were just names anyway .
“The sides of this ring are a Moonflower . Illidan requested for this engraving to be done . Do you know of Illidan?” Being the son of Cenarius, Remulos had existed for a very long time and had lived more than ten thousand years . As such, he was aware of the love and hate stories that revolved around these few people .
“I’ve heard a bit about them . ”
Lu Li suppressed his shock and told Remulos about his knowledge of Illidan .
“I didn’t expect you to know so much, little one . This ring belongs to Illidan and not Malfurion; you must understand this,” Remulos said in a serious tone .
“Of course . ”
Lu Li laughed bitterly on the inside; he was the one that had killed Illidan, or to be exact, Illidan’s shadow, many times .
“This ring has been contaminated with Illidan’s obsessions . Surely, you’ve met his shadow,” Remulos lamented . “We won’t discuss what went on between them . I just wanted to tell you that this ring belonged to Illidan; it was made to slaughter . ”
“Your teachings will be remembered; I will always be standing on the opposing side of the Burning Legion . ” Lu Li acknowledged what Remulos was trying to say; it would be a waste of all the history he had studied in the past if he didn’t understand what was being said to him .
“In order to upgrade the ring to level four, you must gather the blood of forty bosses after their death . The more bosses you kill from races of the Burning Legion, the better the ring become for you,” Remulos said .
Lu Li’s heart sank upon hearing the upgrade conditions .
Wasn’t this asking for a little too much?


Forty bosses wouldn’t be too hard to find, even if they were all different . If there weren’t enough bosses in shared dungeons, it was still possible to complete the task by using dungeon scrolls for private dungeons/ What was hard about the task was the demon bosses of the Burning Legion . Demon-type bosses were never easy to find .

There were some in The Fire Scar Temple, but nowhere near the required total of forty .
There were only a small number of low level dungeons that had anything to do with the Burning Legion .
While Lu Li remained expressionless, Remulos didn’t pause and said, “Some materials are also required . Those Worgens are a ferocious and greedy bunch . ”
Lu Li was already mentally prepared for this . “How am I supposed to find out what materials they need?” he asked .
“Druids of the Moonlight Forest have traded with them in the past and are allowed to borrow their Blood Fang Altar . For the foreseeable future, this altar should be the most suitable for you to upgrade your ring . All you need to do is prepare the following materials, and I will send someone with you to trade with the Worgen . ”
As he spoke, Remulos brought out a piece of leaf inscribed with words .
Lu Li took the leaf and looked; his brows began to lock themselves together .
Two Dreadtusks, two Plagued Spring, two Glutton Shackle, two……
Altogether, it was a list of at least sixteen types of rare materials .
Besides these, a Gold-grade casting medium was also needed .
Even though these were all materials that were hard to obtain, Lu Li felt relieved after he received the list .
The aimless feeling that had dwelled within him over the past few days was gone .
People need a goal to pursue in order to live life to the fullest .
These were all materials that were challenging to find, but he had been reincarnated, which gave him some slight advantages . For example, he knew that he could find the Glutton Shackle in the Shadowfang Keep . As for the Plagued Spring, he knew a boss in the wild that had a slight chance of dropping it .
Even if he didn’t know where to find everything, his rebirth had already saved him from a lot of research .
A difficult goal was better than having no goal at all .
If he couldn’t find a way to upgrade the ring, Lu Li had no idea what would happen to him . As players continued to level and obtain better gear, a level three ring was bound to be outclassed out at some point .
“Thank you . You’re truly remarkable, Keeper of the Grove,” Lu Li said, expressing his gratitude sincerely .
“You’re the most courageous elf adventurer I’ve ever seen . ”
Remulos nodded his head in satisfaction . In all honesty, Lu Li was the only adventurer head had ever seen . “I have one more request to ask of you; are you willing to accept it?”
Nothing comes for free and it was inevitable that quests had to be completed .
However, Lu Li didn’t mind doing quests, especially since Remulos has provided him with guidance . Even if there were no rewards for this quest, he will still give his all to complete it .
“Blackfathom is located in The Zoram Strand of the Grey Valley . It was once a splendorous shrine that worshipped the great Moon Goddess Elune . However, the shrine fell during the explosion of the Sunwell and sank into the deep surges of The Veiled Sea . Now, some Satyr and Nagas have discovered and tainted it . ” Remulos pulled a scroll out of nowhere and handed it to Lu Li then continued, “Go and cleanse it for me; kill all those who have tainted the shrine . ”
System: Dungeon scroll obtained —— Blackfathom (Nightmare) .
A dungeon scroll! A Nightmare-mode dungeon scroll!
Lu Li took the scroll and really began to feel the pressure; he wasn’t prepared to take down a Nightmare-mode dungeon .
The Howling Caves had a Nightmare-mode too, but he knew that their team had only just formed, so it would be impossible for them to clear it . As such, he chose to do heroic mode instead for the sake of taking the first clear .
Blackfathom, especially in Nightmare-mode, was an extremely challenging private dungeon .
The original entrance level for the dungeon was LV20 . Nightmare-mode increased this to LV25 and in total, the dungeon included seven bosses that ranged between LV25-30 .
“Why, does this mission trouble you?” Remulos smiled as he asked .
“No . I will complete what you’ve entrusted to me as soon as I can . Glory to the goddess; my blade will bathe in the blood of those who dare to taint the shrine,” Lu Li promised generously .
“I’ll look forward to your return from victory . May the moon always shine upon you . ”
Remulos reached out his hands to tap the crescent mark on Lu Li’s shoulder, and the system proceeded to prompt his acceptance of the quest .
