The Great Thief - Chapter 413

Chapter 413
Lu Li wasn’t the kind of person to toss a person aside after he was done with them .


Moreover, the Hostess was going to be Lu Li’s future contact with the Assassin’s League for quests .
The female assassin was quite eccentric . If she was satisfied with you, she would treat you particularly well, just like when she allowed Lu Li to kill Yetimus because he had praised her ale .
However, if you provoked her, she would definitely make your life hell .
Lu Li remembered a rumor from his past life that a conceited male player who was in the Assassins League had caused a ruckus in the tavern .
The Hostess didn’t launch a direct attack as she would never openly show that side of her to the player .
However, that player received a quest to assassinate a syndicate’s top leader – the Duke of Fakures . Who knew how a one-star assassin like him managed to get such a high-level quest?
The Assassin League’s quests couldn’t be failed in the sense that they would continue indefinitely until the target was dead .
The worst thing was that until you completed your quest, the Ravenholdt Manor would not give you another one .
Lu Li didn’t know what eventually happened to that player, but it was unlikely that he interacted with that small camp again .
Lu Li didn’t know what other hobbies the Hostess had and it would be insincere to praise her ale again . As such, he intended to collect some high-grade jewelry for her .
She was level 45, so giving her level 30 jewelry would be useless .


She might not care about its properties, but the system gave levels an inherent hierarchy of value .
Lake Darmont was quite deep, so there wasn’t much light near the bottom . Lu Li’s transformation into the Seal had reduced his natural tendency to draw aggro, but if he knocked into one of them, the ferocious lobsters would definitely attack him .
Lu Li hadn’t been here before in his past life; he had only read about it in some articles .
A Thief was writing about his girlfriend who loved nature and referenced a treasure chest in Lake Darmont that had a high probability of dropping really good jewelry .
As for the exact location, the Thief was a little stingy with the details .
Fortunately, the Lake area wasn’t large and Lu Li only searched for half an hour before finding the chest .
The chest was next to a large stone . Most of it was covered in sand and it appeared to be a Silver Chest .
Lu Li’s Unlock skill was level 2 which meant that it couldn’t open Silver Chests . If he wanted to do so, he would need to waste an extra skill point . Skill Points were even more valuable than equipment, so Lu Li felt rather pained . He could only take comfort in the fact that he might get something even better in the future .
This wasn’t just a mere act of self-comfort .
Silver and above Chests could drop treasure maps which were worth a lot of money .
Now that he had solved the issue of Unlock, the only other problem was the two large lobsters next to the chest .


However, Lu Li had prepared for this earlier; he rummaged through his bag to find the Scarlet Library Dog Whistle . This was the item that Lu Li had coaxed from Hachi Chan . He didn’t need to worry about how the whistle could be blown under water – this was a game, after all . Moreover, Lu Li didn’t even need to blow into it .
After the whistle sounded, a palm sized dog appeared in front of him .

The dog was quite intelligent – as soon as it spawned, it tried to escape towards the surface . It wasn’t dumb like its master; it knew that it belonged on land .
Lu Li quickly held onto it .
Little dog, you’re so deep that you might as well resign to your fate .
That’s right, this poor thing was going to be cannon fodder .
The dog unwillingly struggled but was eventually compelled to slowly approach the two big lobsters . The moment it entered their aggro range, it immediately started moving the other way .
Lu Li instructed the dog to take them in the opposite direction, then began to approach the chest .
He didn’t waste any time and immediately cast Unlock onto it .
By the time he received a prompt that the dog had died, Lu Li had already reached into the chest and grabbed whatever was in there . He didn’t have time to see what it was and immediately escaped .
When the two big lobsters discovered that he had stolen something, the chase began .
Could it be that the dog had cursed its owner?
The retribution was coming and it was coming quickly .
As Lu Li escaped, he lamented his heartlessness . He then summoned another dog before him .
Although the dog could run circles around the seal on land, it didn’t stand a chance in the water .
Even though these two lobsters were unforgiving, buying a moment’s time could keep him alive .
Eventually, the chase ended when Lu Li reached a boat and jumped out of the water on it . The lobsters couldn’t help but watch as Lu Li checked out his stolen items .
He had taken a level 45 Axe that was quite strong . It was too bad that it was just a worthless Silver equip .
When he reached level 45, Silver equips simply couldn’t be considered anymore . Silver was likely to be the common rarity of equipment for the majority of players .
When he saw that the other item wasn’t a piece of jewelry, he was disappointed, but when he realized what it was, he was filled with excitement .

Lu Li had planned to take the time to farm Ogres on the Hillsbrad Hills .
Even if the drop rate was bad, he still needed to do it as the Intermediate Healing Potion was no longer adequate for them .
Who would have that he would suddenly get what he needed? The stars had clearly aligned .
"I found the Advanced Healing Potion Recipe . Find a trusted person to learn it," Lu Li said to Square Root 3 . He spoke really casually as if it wasn’t a big deal and that he wasn’t showing off .
"What? Advanced Healing Potion? How?" Square Root 3 was shocked .
The World Announcements were currently buzzing about the Advanced Healing Potion .
It was said that only a low-profile Mage had this recipe . Peerless City had spent a lot of money for an exclusive agreement with him . They would only buy a dozen bottles from him every day .
"Keen this all quiet for now . If Water Fairy finds out, she’ll definitely want it," Lu Li warned .
"Keke, I understand, but Lu Li, if you treat a beautiful lady like that, you might be single for life . Don’t tell me later that I didn’t warn you," Square Root 3 teased, unable to help himself .
