Chapter 443
Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations
The lady landlords had ordered takeaway from an excellent restaurant, so Lu Li and his sister came around to join them .
Hence, on Halloween, Lu Li went online later than usual .
The game time was around sunrise, and pumpkin lights were already being hung up . People in Halloween costumes patrolled around the street and the game was filled with a festive atmosphere .
According to the descriptions of the event, during Halloween, players could join in and receive their own Halloween costume .
Of course, once the festival was over, the costumes would disappear as they had a time limit .
Most people wore a pumpkin head costume, which was a little dumb, but cute in its own way .
In an empty spot in Astrana, about a hundred Ruling Sword elite players were waiting on standby . They attracted quite some attention, since it was rare for people to gather like this in the game .
The members of the Ruling Sword were unfazed by the crowd whispering and pointing at them, because if people knew of their identity, they would only be jealous of them .
This was the guild that had won the Shadow Cup; most people wouldn’t even be able to make it into the guild .
At this point, Ruling Sword was a level 15 guild with around twelve thousand members . They had no less than three thousand applicants on a daily basis, but less than thirty were actually accepted .
It was impossible for any guild to reach the top in a short amount of time .
Without a stable foundation, the guild wouldn’t be able to last long .
"Uncle, give me a treat! Give me a treat! Trick or treat!" A group of children ran over from the other side of the road and crowded around Lu Li .
What kind of judgement made them think that he would be an easy target?
Lu Li was helpless, but he still gave each of them a piece of candy .
This was a day that belonged to the children; you couldn’t turn down these children who only looked around three to five years old . You probably wouldn’t even remember that each candy cost ten copper coins when they stared at you with their watery eyes .
Candy was the new function added in for the day .
If you activated the function on a target, you would be able to give them a piece of candy . This was limited to once per target .
As he handed out the candy along the way, Lu Li eventually reached the gathering point .
On the way, there were even some children who gave him candy in return, so now, he had around a dozen pieces in his bag .
"We’ve been waiting . What took you so long?" Square Root 3 had gathered everyone, but the boss never arrived, so it was quite awkward for him .
"What are you guys doing?" Lu Li was shocked .
"Ruling Sword!"
"Ruling Sword!"
"Ruling Sword!"
A hundred people were shouting at the same time; such a sight could not be ignored .
Fortunately, they had gathered in a fairly isolated area, or else, everyone would definitely be staring at them .
It was quite a childish act, but Lu Li was touched by it . He clenched his fist and pressed it against his chest as he also shouted, "Ruling Sword!"
It was unknown who started it, but the guild members shouted even louder .
"Lu Li! Lu Li! King of first clears!"
"Champions! Champions!"
This was fated to be a passionate day . With a bunch of mythical creatures staring them down, Ruling Sword demonstrated their dedication and passion to the world .
"Let’s go . "
Lu Li waved his hand and signaled for the event to begin .
The Scarlet Monastery dungeon at this point had become the world of the Headless Paladin .
The Headless Paladin was a member of the Silver Hand, and was once a hero for all Paladins . Unfortunately, he was cursed and eventually fell into the dark side .
Some say that it was his own will to fall into the darkness, because he was filled with hopelessness and rage against the world .
The Headless Paladin had lost his thoughts as it wandered in the Scarlet Monastery . He thought he was still alive and everyone else besides himself was dead . These dead men had to be cleansed away by fire .
He was no longer loyal to the holy light and rode on his Spirit Warhorse as he arrived in green flames .
"This is our first group activity today . I’m not expecting everyone to perform excellently, but I’m hoping everyone can stick to one rule . That is, to do as you’re asked!" After they entered the dungeon, Lu Li began to lecture the one-hundred-man team .
What followed was a bunch of messy responses . Lu Li frowned but he didn’t say anything .
Then, he began adjusting the teams . The group was split into teams of ten and each was given a number . Everyone was asked to remember their own team number and keep watch on their team members’ statuses .
The main tank was Azure Sea Breeze, while the secondary tanks were Global Friendship, God of Destiny and Wandering .
In a team like this, four tanks were enough, but most importantly, Azure Sea Breeze was a strong tank . As the number one tank in Dawn, he usually wouldn’t die easily . The other three tanks were mainly there to pull summoned monsters and were back up tanks in case Azure Sea Breeze died .
The main healer was Darkness, a healing Paladin . Healing Paladins were better at healing single targets than any other class . She was only in charge of healing Azure Sea Breeze; none of the other people mattered to her .
Drifting Night Light and March Rain were also main healers, and were in charge of the entire raid team’s health . The other healers only needed to look after the health of their own team members .
At the same time, Lu Li also had players who were in charge of curse and magic debuffs .
The curse debuff was usually given to the tanks and had to be removed instantly, while the magic debuff was a group debuff and dealt high damage . Someone had to be in charge of it or else they would lose a lot of members .
Just in case the elite team members would get suspicious, Lu Li also made sure that there were other players in charge of other debuffs .
However, the Headless Paladin didn’t know how to use any other debuffs .
Lu Li activated the altar in the middle of the graveyard, after which a cloud of smoke and fire instantly arose .
"All these years, I’ve tasted the pain of losing myself . Now, I finally understand the darkness hidden within my soul . . . " After a wicked laugh, a giant shadow appeared on the altar . It was an armored Paladin that rode on a Spirit Warhorse .
He held onto a long weapon that was shrouded by mist and emanated with the cries of the dead .
The players weren’t able to see his face, since he was a Headless Paladin . There was only black smoke in the area that was supposed to be his brain, and two bright flames that flickered like eyes in his dark helmet .
As expected from Halloween, this was a truly frightening sight .
"Start . Melee players, get prepared . Ranged players, wait until the main tank has the boss’ focus before you use your skills . All group spells are banned . Whoever makes a mistake will be kicked out and will be placed on standby outside . There are plenty of people waiting outside to enter the dungeon . "
Lu Li didn’t explain any strategies, and instead asked for Azure Sea Breeze to pull the Boss .
