The Great Thief - Chapter 515

Chapter 515: Exchanging Pieces
Substitutes weren’t required to enter through the tunnel like the main players . Instead, they got teleported into the match when necessary .


As such, nobody knew who stood would be the substitute player . This was one of the most interesting parts to the matches of Dawn . In the future, some guilds would even use the substitute position as their ace .
After Lu Li levelled up, he immediately changed two of his equips .
Wirt’s Third Leg (Gold): Armor 35, Agility +20, Constitution +12, Movement Speed +8% . Special Effect 1: Fade into the shadows and appear behind a target . Increases movement speed by 80% for 3 seconds and increases damage done by next spell by 20% . Reduces Threat by 50% . 120 second cooldown . Special Effect 2: Wirt’s Fake Leg, Instant Cast, leap forward or backward by 8 yards . 120 second cooldown . Equipment Requirement level 35 . Durability 82/82 .
With the special effect from his shoes, he could finally switch his level 15 Shadow Cloak .
The rating for the equipment in Dawn was very complex, but the special effects were always the most important . If a low-level equip had a good special effect, it would align with a level 30 Gold equip .
For example, Lu Li’s Shadow Cloak wasn’t just an ordinary level 15 equip .
It allowed Lu Li to teleport behind his opponent and go into Stealth mode . This enabled him to act aggressively and also gave him the upper hand .
The most troublesome aspect of combat for melee players was switching targets . Warriors could use Charge, but Thieves would have to run . A skill like Sprint usually wouldn’t be used for the purpose of switching targets .
After his Shadow Cloak was replaced, March Rain used a mold to make a level 35 Silver grade cloak for Lu Li . She was quite lucky; it was a fine quality equip .


Boulderfist Cloak (Fine Silver): Armor 40, Agility+16, Strength+8, Movement Speed+3%, Special Effect 1: Stealth effect +12% . Special Effect 2: Certain chance of reducing damage taken by 18% . Level Requirement 35, Durability 64/64 .
The attributes were fairly decent and it was serviceable as a substitute, but it wasn’t the best .
From this point on, Lu Li had four Dark Gold items and three Gold items . He also had a perfect Silver dagger that was equivalent to a Gold equips . His items might not have been updated to level 35, but even if he fought against someone with a set of level 35 Silver items, they wouldn’t be able to beat him .
A good player’s equips should suit their own playstyle .
After the match began, competitors from both sides entered the map .
The map this time was quite strange; it was the battle map that players recalled as having a lot of unexpected surprises .
This was a kind of map with too many exterior factors; a player’s strength alone wasn’t enough to decide the outcome . Most competitors weren’t a fan of this kind of map .
On opposite sides of the map were the basements of each team . There was a small level 35 Boss located in the base and the objective of each team was to kill the small Boss of the opposing team .
Each basement would refresh and produce five level 35 soldiers every ten seconds . These soldiers marched towards the enemy camp and didn’t follow any commandments or suggestions from players .
There were also five arrow turrets along the way that the soldiers marched . They dealt 200 points of damage to all units and their attack speed was quite fast .


There weren’t any shortcuts for this map; all you could was to adapt to the situation .

Fat Monkey played his usual aggressive style . He hastened the tempo of the team and had already knocked out a turret before the Majin Temple team even arrived at the center of the map .
The price for this was him and Moonlight losing a sizeable portion of their health .
Unforgettable Maple and his team walked with their five soldiers and towards the middle point at a slightly later time . When he arrived, he saw that he had already lost a turret . Although losing a turret wasn’t a deciding factor for victory, Fat Monkey’s playstyle reminded him of his defeat last time and he felt embarrassed .
The collision of both teams was fierce; there was no testing of the waters at all .
March Rain and Mu Qiu quickly healed Fat Monkey, especially Mu Qiu . Although he often complained about Fat Monkey, he was very precise with his healing .
If they lost a team member too early, it could possibly cost them the match .
"Alright, let’s fight head on . " Unforgettable Maple decided that he didn’t want to play safe anymore . He and his Hunter team member locked onto Fat Monkey, who still hadn’t fully recovered his health bar . They were determined to send Fat Monkey out first .
"****, why do you guys have to be so passionate?" Fat Monkey cursed as he flashed to dodge an ultimate spell .
Of course, it wasn’t his style to escape . His flash didn’t send him back; it sent him forward instead, right into the center of the Majin Temple players .
Frost Nova – Fat Monkey laughed as he crowd-controlled all the opposing players .
However, his life also ended at this point . Front Nova only snared people, but it didn’t stop them from casting spells .
Majin Temple’s ranged players worked together and killed Fat Monkey .
However, after Fat Monkey used Frost Nova, Moonlight had already charged in to cast a Whirlwind!
The Whirlwind skill of Berserkers had a large cast range, high damage and could not be interrupted . All the players caught in Frost Nova took damage from the entire Whirlwind skill .
The Hunter who was focused by Fat Monkey and Moonlight died, along with his pet .
Moonlight didn’t step back – instead, he chased after Fat Monkey . Sakura Memories casted a Bloodlust and followed into the battle . Mu Qiu’s damage was decent, but his main focus was healing . He needed to slow down the pace of the battle so that their damage dealers could take down the opposing team .
Perhaps it was under the instruction of Unforgettable Maple, but the players from Majin Temple fought as they backed away . Soon, they were back under their turret .
Moonlight, who was at the front, took damage from the turret first . One arrow took away 200 HP, which was far too much for his liking . He turned his head immediately and the opposing team started chasing after him . Their crowd-control skills almost took his life .
"Damn . He’s too good, but we didn’t lose either . We just exchanged players," Unforgettable Maple said, thinking that this was a satisfactory result .
Fat Monkey died and they had lost a Hunter .
This result wasn’t too bad . Fat Monkey was one of their main damage dealers; even Unforgettable Maple didn’t dare to look down on his burning damage .
Warriors were a strong centerpiece and one of the key damage sources of a team . They could attack their opponents directly or even control and disrupt the opposing players to mess up their positioning .
Mages made up the frontline – they directed their own team, suppressed their opponents and focused on a target .
Thieves played on the sidelines – they played an important role in certain situations, whether it be in attacking or supporting .
Paladins and Shamans were capable of everything, and could attack or defend . Shamans were more aggressive while Paladins were more passive .
The healing classes were a great back up support .
What about Hunters? Hunters had an awkward position; they could be thought of as part of the backline . At least, in the current situation, they were mainly used to kill Mages and Thieves .
Now that the opposing team didn’t have any Thieves or Mages, the death of the Hunter from Majin Temple couldn’t even be counted as a loss .
