The sudden changes caught everyone off guard.
What happened? Baili Xuanyuan had suddenly given up?
Lin Jie was shocked too. He gave a fake smile and said, “Thank you, Xuanyuan Guild Leader, for your help.”
“Help?” Baili Xuanyuan was confused.
“Since you are here, wishing me to get the first clear, of course, you will lend me your helping hand, right? It is not possible that you are not going to supply us with any resources, right?” Lin Jie said with a straight face and started his cons.
He knew exactly what Baili Xuanyuan was planning. He must have had some mission that needed him to kill the Demon of Destruction. However, he was not strong enough and thus needed Lin Jie’s help. After killing the Demon of Destruction, it would be the glory of the entire China server.
It was just like the mission [For The Guild]. No matter which team killed the Boss, all participants would be rewarded. Although it would be less attractive, it would still be something. Knowing that Lin Jie decided to gain something from Baili Xuanyuan too.
“Erm…” Baili Xuanyuan did not know how to respond. He was deeply disgusted by this young man in front of him. Nonetheless, he was very vigilant against this young man. He knew just when to ask for more and when to retreat without any hesitation.
Baili Xuanyuan was a businessman and held a high social position in the real world. However, Lin Jie had taken advantage of him so many times in the game, which made him reflect.
“That’s a must! I’ve prepared many items to help my friends in Brotherhood. After all, my nephew, Baili Changcheng, is a member of your organization too. Haha… Come, here are 3,000 bottles of master-grade potions!” Baili Xuanyuan tried to make friends with Lin Jie first and then brought up the ‘gifts’.
Everyone was shocked.
Master-Grade potions were not easy to encounter. The best Potioneers in the City of Light were mainly in Sky Provisions Shop. Although Seven Ears was very near to becoming a Master-Level Potioneer, he knew that he needed luck and extremely rare materials to do so, or he would be stuck for months! The more common potions seen in the market were mainly middle-grade to high-grade. The stronger the Potioneer, the better the potion stats, but it would never exceed 30%.
Unless it was a Mutated Potion made with Seven Ears’ talent.
Master-Grade potions would only be dropped from treasure chests or a Boss with a small chance.
It was very generous of Baili Xuanyuan to straightaway give 3,000 bottles! Furthermore, it was very effective for the dungeon as it came from the Dark Shrine.
“Thanks.” Lin Jie looked at the list and accepted the potions. There were Master-Grade Health Overdraft Potions, Mana Overdraft Potions, False Rage Potions, etc. Every potion was kept in a dark bottle. He signaled the members of the Brotherhood to come forward. “Find some guys to pass these potions to Sky Provisions Shop and ask Seven Ears and Potion Maniac to study their compound. It’s okay if none is left in the end.”
“Noted,” they replied.
Lin Jie’s move dumbfounded Baili Xuanyuan… 3,000 bottles of master-grade potions were about all Baili Xuanyuan had. Putting the cost aside, studying these potions could have a chance to let a Potioneer with enough talent to advance into a Master-Level Potioneer! But who would even do that? These potions cost millions! Even a super-rich guild would not spend that money to allow a Potioneer a chance to advance—the payout was too low!
However, Lin Jie was not bothered by it at all. First of all, he had gotten these potions for free. Secondly, he was afraid that Baili Xuanyuan had plans of his own. Thus, it was best to take a chance.
“Thanks, let’s go,” said Lin Jie in a perfunctory tone and entered the dungeon.
Everyone followed after Codename Lone Wolf and entered the dungeon too.
Baili Xuanyuan was surprised by how influential Lin Jie was.
“Xuanyuan, are you not afraid that Lone Wolf will play tricks on you?”
Baili Xuanyuan nodded and replied, “Yes, and no.”
“Oh? How’s that?”
“I’m afraid for now. But once it is done, I will not be afraid anymore.” Baili Xuanyuan smiled. “I learned that from Lone Wolf.”

—’Your team had entered [Throne of Demon of Destruction].’
After so many days, Savage Blade had set foot on this land again. This map was like the abyss of purgatory, with black clouds rolling, lightning and thunder, and the sea of clouds seemed to be crashing down! The endless scorched ground was full of gloomy and dark air. There were sounds of ghosts crying and howling at the bottom of the earth as if they were buried there.
A blood-dropping throne stood in the center. The throne was the size of a mountain. It was carved with demons and ghosts. Its long and narrow tongue seemed to be bleeding. There was a huge skull at the top, with large scary green eyes.
On the throne, there was a huge demon, pale in color, with two horns on the top of his head and two canine teeth almost penetrating his jawbone. This was the Demon of Destruction! He was the final Boss of the entire War of Light dungeon-group, leader of all Undead.
[Demon of Destruction Madives] (Legendary Hero): Level 70 Health Points:???
As the final Boss of a dungeon, Madives had very little information shown. Even Identify could not gather more info. The only source of information was through the game’s official website. The forum would provide some background for the Boss, and players could gather some hints from it. Furthermore, Madives had appeared once when Hell Gate had been opened, more data could be gathered then too.
“Pants, start your runes. Brothers, there are three stages in fighting this Boss. Every stage lasts 10 minutes…” Lin Jie started explaining how it would work, and Hardworking Pants started on his runes. Lin Jie was very detailed in his explanation, and he spent 20 minutes talking.
After 20 minutes, Madives’ body was full of command markings.
The team had never fought with the Boss before, and thus it was difficult for Lin Jie to convey what he remembered to the team on paper. Thus, he brought them to the actual place. Everyone was trying their hardest to note down all the details, but there was too much information!
Baili Changcheng asked, “Fu Sheng, where did you get all the info? Even my family could not get such information…”
Lin Jie smiled and said, “Reading.”
“You mean books?”
“Yes, read books. I read hundreds of them to get information on Madives and compiled it into a note. You can read if you want, we are not in a hurry.” Lin Jie took out a grayish notebook. It was completely made by him.
Year 310, Madives attacked the Nanhai Town and smashed down a Holy Church protected by Holy Light.
Year 357, Empire Alliance sent some Sharpshooters to assassinate Madives, but they were burned to death by a Devil’s Flame.
Year 496, Madives fought with Angel League, and it was sealed back to the Abyss…
…
Madives’ information was captured in detail in the historical books, some even with pictures. Other than focusing on how strong Madives was, it recorded much valuable information about it too.
Thus, by gathering and analyzing the information, most of the intel on the Boss could be deduced.
The Savage Blade team flipped through the notebook and was shocked by how much information it contained. It had at least 10,000,000 words in it! It would be difficult to find the information on Madives, let alone pick out the important information. For example, Lin Jie had managed to find out the angle, power, and attack trail of the attack that had smashed the Holy Church. Everyone gave Lin Jie their respect.
Even Bu Yi was impressed. Her parents were teachers, and thus she had been cultivated to read from young. But it was still difficult for her to pick out such fine details from all those books!
“Okay, that’s all for my sharing. Now, ready for war.” Hardworking Pants finished what he was doing and said solemnly, “Remember, do not share a word on what you are about to see. Or else… Book of the Age!” Countless ancient runes flew out from the book and dropped on the ground.
“Source of Rune! Change your power into Wood!”
Hardworking Pants drew a mysterious picture in the air, and everyone felt very lively. Lights shone from the diagram and entered the weapons they were holding.
Same for Lin Jie’s Broken Blade, it had some wooden marking on it now, and it looked like a wooden dagger.
“Fire Rune!”
The light changed into bright red and entered their weapons again. Lin Jie’s Broken Blade was now covered with flame!
—’Your weapon is enchanted with [Blaze], 50% of your Attack will be converted into Fire-type Damage with additional 100 Fire-type Damage.’
—’The effect of your [Blaze] is doubled.’
