The Great Thief - Chapter 883

Chapter 883: 883
"The Boss is here . Squishy players, be more careful when you're dealing damage . Make sure you don't enter the top three on the aggro chart . Wandering, make sure you're up there on the aggro chart, but don't draw aggro away from the Main Tank accidentally," Lu Li reminded everyone as the little ghoul charged towards them .


Although he was only a mini boss, Timmy was definitely a lot stronger than he looked .
He might not have been much of a threat for Plate Armor classes, but because of his high Attack and high Armor Penetration, the Cloth Armor classes would usually be one-hit . Timmy was infamous for being a Cloth Armor class killer .
Even after the players progressed through the game, when high-level mages revisited this Boss, they would still have a very high chance of dying .
There was actually a small shortcut behind the nearby house which allowed players to avoid this Boss . As more and more players heard about Timmy's background story, they could no longer bring themselves to kill the little ghoul, but Lu Li wasn't much of a sympathetic person . From his perspective, he thought that Timmy would probably prefer to die rather than to live on like a zombie .
Lu Li recalled a quest that could help Timmy pass on to the afterlife and make him an NPC in Undercity .
Unfortunately, the quest could only be complete by Horde players, so there was nothing he could do to help him . If he could attempt the quest to help Timmy, he would have .
Azure Sea Breeze charged forwards and the Ghoul's sharp claws scraped into his shield with a piercing metallic sound .
More than 170 points of damage appeared above his head .


"He's got really high Attack, but not much defense . He doesn't have any healing either," the Main Tank reported back to his team .
Lu Li knew that this was only the beginning of the fight . When Timmy entered Berserk mode, his physical Attack and Attack Speed would both dramatically increase . When that happened, it wouldn't matter what kind of armor you wore .
Timmy had a skill called Ravenous Claw that inflicted physical damage and healed 400 points of HP . If it wasn't for his low defense and HP, Timmy would likely be extremely difficult to deal with .
However, since he was only lv47, his HP rapidly dropped under the relentless assault of Lu Li's party .
Timmy did not say anything and remained silent the whole time .
Sometimes, he would stop attacking, revealing his dark and eerie eyes to the players .
They could see traces of his former human form; he wasn't as ugly and disfigured as the other ghouls . Taking into account his appearance and the knowledge of his background story, the girls in the party couldn't help but sympathize with him .
Because of his Lifesteal skill, it still took around 20 minutes to defeat him . The EXP reward was quite plentiful, but there were no skill points awarded .

Remnant Dream looted a hunting rifle .
Lil Timmy's Peashooter (Dark Gold): 62-88 damage, +42 agility, +36 strength, +20% accuracy, +2 Enchantment slots . Special Effect 1: Chance of causing the target to fall over when attacking, disabling them for 2 seconds . Special Effect 2: Jump - Allows the user to jump 15 yards in a chosen direction, cooldown 30 minutes . Special Effect 3: Enrage - Physical Damage +30%, Attack Speed +20%, 20 second duration, 10 minute cooldown . Requires Level 45 . Durability 115/115 .
Engraved on the side of the rifle were the following words: "When Timmy was little, he liked to hide in different parts of town to scare others with his peashooter . "
Remnant Dream looked at Lu Li with her big puppy eyes .
The most valuable piece of equipment wasn't dependent on its price but on its suitability . The stats on this weapon were excellent, including high attack and 20% accuracy, along with crowd-control, mobility and attack buff special effects . This was a perfect weapon for Remnant Dream, especially because she had always struggled with accuracy .
The gun was only slightly better than her previous bow, but she was extremely happy with it .
The second item was a Synthetic Stone – damage increased by 10% . This was quite a useful stone and Lu Li decided he might as well give it to Remnant Dream because there were two sockets on her new weapon . She planned on looking for another stone when she returned back to town .
The next Boss was also a mini Boss – his name was Forresten from Darrowshire . He had a beautiful and enchanting voice like a nightingale, and would often stand by the glowing blue lake underneath the moonlight, singing to the love of his life .
The Culling of Stratholme claimed the lives of innumerable people, whose only crimes were being in the doomed city . Forresten, a traveling singer and piccolo player named was one such victim . He continued to wander the city in death, unable to accept his tragic fate . As a ghost, he was still able to play the instruments he once loved, however, he could no longer sing as there was no one to listen to him . Music and freedom was no longer a reality of his; everything that happened seemed to be no more than a dream .
Forresten was a Yellow Health monster .
Yellow Health was a term that originated from other games and had remained in the gaming community . This basically meant that the monster was passive and would not attack unless provoked .
However, he needed to be killed because he dropped good loot .
Azure Sea Breeze smashed his shield into Forresten's face, enraging him . Though he used to be a gentleman, he had lost his patience and kindness over the years .
Forresten immediately casted Multi-Shot, taking out a chunk of everyone's HP . March Rain reacted quickly and began to cast an group heal, but she was stopped by Lu Li . Multi-Shot had a large area-of-effect, but the damage was quite low and it had a long cooldown . It would be a waste to use up the AOE heal skill at this point .
There were very few AOE heals skills at this stage of the game; March Rain only had two .
Forresten's signature skill was a powerful crowd-control ability called Enchanting Lullaby, which sang the target to sleep for up to 20 seconds and dealt 5% HP per second .
If left alone, the target affected by Enchanting Lullaby would be dead for sure .
Lu Li wanted March Rain to save her AOE skill for a more dire situation .
After taking down 1/3rd of his HP, Forresten put away his crossbow and took out his piccolo . Azure Sea Breeze was not aware of the Enchanting Lullaby and laughed, "Haha, look guys – he's given up because he knows he can't win . He's gonna play us a song while we beat him to death . "
Forresten did as he was told and everyone fell into deep slumber . Their HP began dropping rapidly as time went by .
"March Rain, use your badge active and heal everyone," Lu Li said instructed
March Rain followed his orders and casted an AOE heal skill, saving them from danger .
