Great Bandit Lasol, Rare Elite, world-type monster. It would be randomly spawned within any map in the Guild of Light and Tribe of Darkness. His level would change according to the map, and the calculation formula was the map’s level +20. That was to say, even if it appeared in a novice village, it would also be a level 20 Rare Elite.
If it appeared within a leveling ground, then it would be a super Boss! Lasol would not drop equipment, but all kinds of rare materials could be obtained, and there were no limits to the grade. Even legendary materials could be dropped!
Sometime in Lin Jie’s past, Lasol’s popularity had reached such an extent that once it was time for it to respawn, thousands, if not ten thousands, of players, had been buying its coordinates to rush and kill it.
“Tiger King, come out!”
The ferocious tiger roared as it came out from the mount space and lowered its haughty head. Lin Jie got onto its back and ran towards where Lasol was.
Lasol only existed for 4 hours every time it appeared, regardless if it was killed or not, it would disappear and enter a cooldown period lasting as long as half a month.
Lin Jie let his Silver-Feathered Eagle out. It flapped its wings and flew up high into the clouds with a swoosh, paying close attention to the direction Lasol was moving towards.
Tiger King activated its fastest speed and rushed towards Lasol with an astounding aura! Wherever the Tiger King passed, the low-leveled monsters of the novice village all crouched down on the ground, not even having the courage to attack.
In just three minutes, Lin Jie rushed right in front of Lasol. He canceled his mount and activated Hunter’s Forward Charge!
[Great Bandit Lasol]: Level 25 Rare Elite, Health Points: 25,000
Lasol saw Lin Jie charging towards him, and he actually very cleverly jumped up. The poisonous daggers in his hands, exuded a terrifying green sheen, two attacks were aimed at Lin Jie.
“Army Obliteration!”
Lin Jie shook his wrist, and Broken Blade pierced through the sky.
Clink- Clang- Cling-
Broken Blade and the two daggers almost collided at the same time! Not only so, but Lin Jie also turned his sword, changing its direction and dodged Lasol’s attack again. It instantly pierced through Lasol’s neck!
-514!
Although Lasol’s job was Bandit, its defense attributes were not that remarkable!
Thunderbolt Sword followed up the attack. Lightning flickered as the sword collided with Lasol’s dagger. Ice Soul Slash was ready to be released but who knew that Lasol would suddenly scatter a huge handful of lime powder? Lin Jie felt pain in his eyes, and he had lost his sense of sight!
—Battle prompt message: Great Bandit Lasol has used [Blinding Lime], you have entered a 25 seconds blinded state.
A blindness control skill that lasted 25 seconds, that was the disgusting part of Lasol! If one soloed Lasol, then basically one would be within darkness throughout the whole process.
However now… the Silver-Feathered Eagle was hovering in the air with its bright silver-colored eyes, agile and twinkling. It transferred its sense of sight, which was from above, to Lin Jie, who could not open his eyes.
Lasol gave a sinister smile and quietly activated Ambush. After moving behind Lin Jie, his dagger sliced towards the back of his head!
Ding~
Broken Blade abruptly appeared before the dagger!
Parry!
Both of Lin Jie’s swords pierced consecutively and stabbed into Lasol’s chest without any deviation.
-555!
-595!
…
It was only a normal attack, every attack would have an aftereffect of making the one attacked leaning backward slightly, so Lin Jie took advantage of it before Lasol recovered to continue his next attack.
Lasol was pierced six consecutive times; he was actually unable to retaliate at all!
After being slashed off 3400+ of Health Points from that combo, Lasol activated Dark Shadow Step and disappeared from Lin Jie’s sight. Dark Shadow Step could allow the Bandit to instantly appear behind the target, it was the best skill for chasing and killing or counterattacks.
If Lin Jie had normal vision, then it would be extremely easy for him to be hit by that Bandit’s skill. However, currently, Lin Jie’s line of view came from the sky, so he could easily see through Lasol’s actions.
Lin Jie turned around and kicked Lasol to stop its attack. He swung his swords continuously and once again slashed, releasing a combo of six attacks! Although that combo was not counted as a combo since he did not activate Blood Power, it had the effect making Lasol lean backward, causing the target to have no means of retaliating!
After coming out from the Trial Space, Lin Jie could use his techniques more skillfully!
Lasol was steadily beaten backward. In the blink of an eye, its health points decreased to under 5,000 points. Lasol panicked and played the same old trick, scattering the phosphor powder, activating Forced Stealth!
Lasol’s most shameless stage had begun!
As long as it’s health points were dangerously low, Lasol would start to be immune to all controls and use Forced Stealth to dodge attacks. That was still okay, at most recovering a few thousand points of the health bar, but if one met the activation of “eating bread on the spot,” then one would be miserable. When it appeared, it would have full health again!
Lin Jie’s luck was not bad as Lasol only used a bandage and recovered 2,000 points of health before it came out of Stealth. It’s health then dropped by another 2,000+ by Lin Jie’s Army Obliteration, it scattered phosphor powder and planned to go into Forced Stealth again.
This time, its movements were relatively obvious, it even grabbed the bread in his hands; clearly, it wanted to act shamelessly.
“Blood Soul Multi-Slash, go and die!” The blood reservoir was instantly filled up to the maximum. Due to absorbing the thunder blade, lighting arcs enshrouded the ray of blood-red light.
In the next instant, Lin Jie slashed open Lasol’s body in one swipe!
-2,595!
-2,574!
Blood Soul Multi-Slash was even more violent after Broken Blade evolved! It was the best skill for dealing the final strike!
Ding~
—”Congratulations on your first kill of the Rare Elite Great Bandit Lasol, do you wish to release an announcement?”
Yes!
—’System Announcement: Congratulations player “Codename Lone Wolf” for killing the world’s Rare Elite “Great Bandit Lasol,” he has completed the achievement [Catcher], reward 10 points of Agility and Movement Speed is permanently increased by 2%!’
One could even obtain stat points reward from killing the Great Bandit Lasol!
At that instant, Lin Jie’s friend requests immediately exploded. If it only rewarded Agility, then it was still acceptable, but most importantly, it rewarded Movement Speed too! Movement Speed was nothing to a Warrior, but the importance of Movement Speed to Hunters and Bandits went without saying!
Many white-collar workers that had quite the wealth or guild members sent a friend request. They were willing to pay thousands, even tens of thousands, just hoping to be able to buy the information regarding the Great Bandit Lasol. Some even hoped to hire Lin Jie to kill Lasol again.
Lin Jie ignored all of those messages. The Great Bandit Lasol was extremely rare. In the seven years of his previous life, the number of deaths of Lasol was not more than 10—this business was not that easy to do.
However, as a world-level Rare Elite, Great Bandit Lasol’s drop rate was relatively attractive. Just the 12 dropped gold coins alone were enough! What a frightful gold coin drop-rate! If that monster was respawned unlimitedly, one would be able to make a fortune easily!
Opening Lasol’s backpack, Lin Jie took out items from within one by one.
—”You received 10 bottles of Liquid Mithril.”
—”You received 20 Ten Millennia Frozen Ice.”
—”You received 10 Golden Silk Wood.”
—”You received 10 Abyss Overlord’s Heart.”
A total of four items, each and every one of them were extremely rare and valuable!
Liquid Mithril could be converted to highly concentrated Mithril through elemental change, and a bottle of Liquid Mithril could be turned into 20 highly concentrated Mithril. One highly concentrated Mithril was equal to 50 units of Mithril! Meanwhile, the refining of Mithril consumed 10 complete Mithril Ores! Mithril Ore was a Rare Ore, and thus the value of the Liquid Mithril was evident.
Meanwhile, Ten Millennia Frozen Ice and Golden Silk Wood were items that Legends just nicely needed! They were also essential items needed to create the Sub-Legendary Fire Gun [Silent Killer].
That was a complete Sub-Legendary Fire Gun, different from a Sub-Legendary Fragment like Thunderbolt Sword. The basic attack of Silent Killer was as high as 600 points and naturally came with 5 Consecutive Shots and Continuous Silence.
Now, he suddenly obtained two of the materials, that was really a pleasant surprise!
Meanwhile, Abyss Overlord’s Heart, strictly speaking, it was not a material. Undead Summoner, Shadow Priests and Spellcasters could use that item. Its effect was to increase a certain amount of Shadow Affinity. Simply speaking, it was increasing the effects of skills. However, in Lin Jie’s previous life, there had been someone who had used the Abyss Overlord’s Heart to activate a hidden mission.
Lin Jie thought until his head hurt a little, so he simply gave all the Abyss Overlord’s Hearts to Qiu Yuan in one go. She was a Shadow Priest, so it was better to let her have a headache over them.
“Liquid Mithril is a very good item, what price would it be auctioned off?” Lin Jie smiled and threw nine bottles of Liquid Mithril into the hands of the auction staff.
Talking about materials, Lin Jie suddenly remembered a person—that Miner girl, Silent Grey Sky, who dug out the Weighted Concentrated Dark Ore at the Dark Iron Mountain. Ever since Lin Jie had given her the coordinates of the ores, she had been busy almost all the time.
‘I wonder how her gains are.’
“Silent, what are you busy with?”
“Digging ores.” Sounds of mining could be heard from the communication device.
“The Central Auction House is holding an auction, not planning to take a look?”
“Not interested, I want to mine ores.”
“There are many items to be sold.”
“Are there, ores?”
Lin Jie awkwardly scratched his head. “Uh, nope. Who would sell ores…”
“Then I’m not going, I want to mine ores.”
“How’s the learning of the Dwarfish Forging going? Help me get some equipment then?”
“As pay, I want more ores’ coordinates!”
“Uh, how about I give you a bottle of Liquid Mithril?”
“!!!! Where are you now? I’ll go there immediately.”
Lin Jie immediately sent her his coordinates. Lin Jie was at the peripheral of the novice village, so he just stood on the spot, silently waiting. Who knew Silent Grey Sky would come so fast? She probably teleported there as soon as they hung up.
In just a few minutes, Lin Jie could see her white legs swaying quickly in the far distance. Her sexy tall figure approached Lin Jie rapidly, and her hands abruptly grabbed Lin Jie’s shoulders as she shouted like a hungry wolf, “My Liquid Mithril!”
“Here, here…” Lin Jie was covered in sweat and gave the bottle with Liquid Mithril flowing in it to Silent Grey Sky.
“Hahaha, I was going crazy thinking about it! Oh yes, I have altered The Secret Records of Dwarfish Forging, ” said Silent Grey Sky haughtily as she took out the book, with her hands on her waist, her hair as long as a flowing waterfall.
Lin Jie was shocked. “Altered it?”
“Yes, after I studied that book of secret records, I realized that Dwarves are simply stupid! Mithril does not conflict with any ore, one could totally add in highly concentrated Mithril to increase the equipment level and attributes, and obtain mana defense values that were quite good. Therefore I directly changed the Secret Records,” said Silent Grey Sky, “However, cough cough, because I took the liberty to change it, the recipe also changed completely. At the current stage, I could not obtain highly-concentrated Mithril, so my Forging did not improve at all.”
“Increase mana defense?” Lin Jie was elated, wasn’t that just what he needed? The next Main Plot dungeon was different from Belief Church; from the first Boss to the last one, they were all magical jobs. As for their magic attack power, it could be described as unbelievably powerful.
Remembering the Liquid Mithril transferred to the auction, Lin Jie panicked, trying to cancel the auction. However, the item was already up for sale. Even if he was the boss behind the scenes, he was also unable to remove the goods on sale.
“The auction will sell a few bottles of Liquid Mithril, do you want to go and take a look?” asked Lin Jie.
Silent Grey Sky said meekly, “But… But I haven’t been to an auction before.”
“Just come, at worst, I’ll buy them!” said Lin Jie and gritted his teeth. Anyway, it was him selling the item, at most he just needed to pay for the auction fee of 10%! Most of the auction fees would still enter his own wallet, only a small portion would be deducted by the system.
Come to think of it, it was all a waste of money…
“Alright, thanks, boss!” said Silent Grey Sky, laughingly. Her pink tongue licked her lips, and she sized up Lin Jie’s Thunderbolt Sword. She said in amazement, “High-level ore, Cloud Thunder Ore was used to forge that sword if I can break it down…”
Lin Jie hurriedly covered his Thunderbolt Sword with his hand and fled as rapidly as his feet would take him.
