Chapter 909: 909
However, Lonesome Flower wasn't stupid either . If his sister didn't like it, he would rather never use it then to let Azure Sea Breeze have it .


After they took down Baron Rivendare, the next zone became available to all of them .
In the beginning, the Highlord Alexandros Mograine and Saidan Dathrohan led their troops to attack the Stratholme ruins, fighting the Undead army head-on . In the battle, Dathrohan led his troops and was attacked by Balnazzar . While he tried his best to attack, he was easily captured by the demon and his life force was drained . The demon possessed his body and took over his identity .
He baited Renault to kill his father, which further corrupted the Crusade .
Later on, after Mograine had been slain by his son, Balnazzar led the Scarlet Crusade with its new identity to enter Stratholme again . He then fought against the Scourge army for years and through this war, selected his best men for the next step of his evil plans .
The Scarlet zone still followed the morals of the Scarlet Crusade, but it was all just part of a greater plan .
Although items like the Deathcharger were very attractive, there were other things in the zone that were worth everyone's time – for example, the Righteous Orb .
The Righteous Orb had many uses . There were at least around 30 Dark Gold grade equips that required it, in addition to a variety of Enchantments and Alchemy recipes . Most importantly, the Design recipes clearly stated its effects .
Besides this, the Archmage Angela Dosantos also had a quest that required Righteous Orbs to complete .
The Righteous Orb was one of the rare materials that even normal monsters would drop, but at the same time, this didn't diminish its value .


The price would occasionally fluctuate, but it had never fallen under 50 gold for a single Orb .
"This place reminds me a little of the Scarlet Monastery," Azure Sea Breeze commented as he stepped into the Scarlet zone with a strange sense of familiarity .
"Watch out for packed monsters; don't underestimate them," Lu Li reminded him .
"I know," Azure Sea Breeze said .
However, he didn't take his advice to heart and they wiped right at the door . The weak image of the Scarlet Crusade had been embedded deeply into his subconscious . No matter how on-guard he was, he just couldn't help it .
In all honesty, the monsters here had constantly fought with the Undead in the Undead zone . The ones that had survived were the strongest and were equivalent to mini Bosses .
They had passed Baron Rivendare in one attempt, but ended up being wiped by a few small monsters . Everyone was concerned, but only Lu Li looked calm . A wipe was nothing – they weren't even level 47 on average . Even a team of level 50 players who managed to make it here would be wiped out too .
As for the strategy, it was simple – just go slowly .
There were two troublesome parts to the dungeon . Every wave of monsters had their own scout that would report the situation back .

"The Undead Scourge has broken through; they've reached the post!"
Their every move had been reported . The threat of this was that another wave of reinforcements would soon arrive . If they couldn't clear out the first wave in time, they would be wiped with the increasing amount of monsters .
The other problem was a common one for humanoid units; they ran once their health dropped to a certain level .
If they ran into other monsters during the escape process, the aggression would spread and other monsters would be drawn over . It was like a child running to their parents for help .
Since all these monsters were level 50, and their aggro ranges were very wide, they had to ensure that they didn't let any of them escape . It took Lu Li and the others a full hour to clear out the hallway .
After this, they reached an intersection and Azure Sea Breeze led everyone to the smaller path on the right .
No one had been here before, so they had to explore the map by themselves .
There were no bosses at the end; it seemed like they had arrived at a forge room that had been deserted a long time ago . Half-made equipment were scattered everywhere and barely any of them were in good condition .
Under normal circumstances, they might have been able to find something here, but they were all quite unlucky this time . None of them found anything worthwhile .
At the very least, they could sell these half-made equips to the blacksmiths in the city . It would be hard to sell them for a good price though – the best that they could produce would probably be Silver grade .
Lu Li searched around and reached his hand out to a scroll on the table that had been covered by dust .
This was one of the main reasons for him to come to Stratholme .
He needed a quest item to improve his Forging that could be found in this particular dungeon . It wasn't hard for Lu Li to find it since he had already been reincarnated .
After he activated the scroll, he immediately heard an angry shout .
"Fool, let go of your hands!'
A muscular man who wearing a red shirt suddenly appeared out of nowhere . This was the Blacksmith that Lu Li had been looking for .
This guy was a monster for Trading skill classes . If players didn't actively seek him, he wouldn't pop out, even if his half-made equips were to be sold .
Lu Li calmly packed the level 50 Silver grade Mold into his bag . The item that it produced had decent Attributes; it was comparable to a similarly-levelled Gold grade . Most importantly, the materials for the Mold weren't too expensive and it could be produced in great quantity .
The others wouldn't need them, but the weaker players in the guild did .
"Get out of here!" Azure Sea Breeze yelled as he slammed his shield into the NPC's face without the slightest hesitation . He didn't even need to take the time to decipher if this was a good character or not . Anyone who appeared with such a strange manner was suspicious to begin with .
Hence, the battle commenced, but it was an easy one .
The NPC that had appeared was a small Boss . He was the weakest boss in Stratholme, and wasn't even as threatening as five average monsters combined .
They ended the battle in about ten minutes .
The loot was very basic – a recipe for a Gold grade hammer . On the recipe, was mark that read '3/3' . This meant that it could only forge three hammers, which was common for high-end recipes .
Besides this recipe, the boss also dropped a small mineral . It was a rare material that Lu Li was very satisfied with .
What it dropped in the end was a Righteous Orb . No one would complain about him dropping this, and Lu Li even wished that it had dropped more . There was not a single guild that could complain about having too many Righteous Orbs .
After this, they turned back and ran into other monsters again . When they finally cleared them, they began to make their way to Cannon Master Willey, an actual Boss .
