Chapter 743: Goblin Rocket Boots
Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations
The eight items before Lu Li’s eyes were quite good.
There was a Demon’s Shadow which was a rare material that belonged to the Bosses from the Burning Legion. It was good for crafting equipment, levelling and upgrading his ring.
Additionally, there was a skill book – Empowerment: Shadow Strike. The moment that it appeared, Lu Li’s eyes went red.
He had always wanted these Empowerment type-spells, but he only had a Worgen transformation at the moment. Although this was rare, it wouldn’t considerably affect his overall damage output.
Damage always depended more on equipment than skills.
Everyone would eventually have access to powerful skills such as Slit Throat, Backhand Backstab, Kidney Strike and Ambush. Lu Li didn’t have an advantage anymore in this regard. Players who had level five skills would also be able to deal more damage. Lu Li had some advantage here, but not enough to set him apart from his other fellow competitors.
Having experienced rebirth, he knew how strong these Empowerment skills were. He wanted to obtain them before anyone else did and this Empowerment: Shadowstrike was one of them.
Shadowstrike was one of his most commonly-used skills. The Empowerment would increase his skill damage by at least 20, which lead to an obvious improvement in his strength.
Besides the rare material and the Empowerment skill, he also saw a recipe for Goblin Rocket Boots.
Lu Li was hoping to see the Bike of the Mechanic, but he didn’t expect to see something like this so soon.
The Goblin Rocket Boots weren’t real boots. Rather, these were an item that could be added onto shoe-type equipment, increasing movement speed and allowing players to jump over short distances.
In Lu Li’s previous life, those who didn’t have these boots would be ashamed to call themselves PVP players.
Of course, an exquisite item like this would require decent Engineering skills.
In addition to three Gold grade equips and two Silver grade equips, these were the options that were laid out before Lu Li.
What he wanted the most was the Empowerment skill book, then the Engineering recipe and the Demon’s Shadow. If not, it would be nice to at least receive a Gold.
As for the two Silver grade equips, if he landed on one, he would consider commiting suicide on the spot.
“Dreamy, which direction do I spin if I want this skill book?” Lu Li’s asked in a shaky voice as he looked expectantly at Remnant Dream, even though he knew that this wasn’t a reliable method.
“Mmmm, I feel like you should spin left. Wait, no, spin right. Last time you spun left for the skill point, so this time you should do right,” she answered earnestly.
Her words gave Lu Li some confidence and he immediately spun to the right.
The others all waited for Lu Li’s result; he had the best items available this time.
“Dear Lord!”
Lu Li shut his eyes and made a prayer of an unbeliever. He didn’t believe in God, likely because he had prayed countless times in his previous life for someone to save his sister, but all that awaited him was desolation.
“Wow!”
Judging from the sound of others, it seemed to be something decent. Lu Li opened his eyes in joy, but the needle before him was pointed squarely on the Engineering recipe.
“My ****, why isn’t it a skill book!? If this broken needle just spun a little more, it would have landed on the skill book,” he inwardly cursed.
Recipe: Goblin Rocket Boots (Engineering)
Requirement: Artisan Engineering (280)
Use: Teaches you how to make the Goblin Rocket Boots
Goblin Rocket Boots: Enchant your boots with a pair of wings, giving it the speed of a rocket. Movement speed +5%. Rocket Launch: jump 8 yards in any direction, cooldown 2 minutes. There is a certain chance of causing an explosion. After the explosion, the enchantment disappears. If you’re lucky, you might be able to retrieve some spare parts.
Even a pair of simple boots would become an exquisite item with this rocket enchantment.
However, the level 280 artisan engineering requirement pained Lu Li’s heart. After the Ivy Bomb, it had been a long time since he had gone to practice his Engineering skills.
“Stop looking. I’ll make you guys a pair each later, but you guys have to supply the materials yourselves,” Lu Li said as he waved his hands weakly.
“Boss, don’t worry. We’ll find all the materials,” the others responded with a smile. This was such a good item, so it was only natural that the material fees wouldn’t be cheap. However, none of them poor, so they all felt like this was a reasonable task.
“No rush – it’ll still be some time until I reach 280. You guys draw your prizes first,” Lu Li said, then proceeded to list out the materials.
Some of them had exquisite items in their wheels, especially one of the mounts in the slots. Lu Li felt like the mount could be sold at an unimaginable price.
DK horse!
The level 45 dungeon, Stratholme, had a certain chance of dropping this mount. Even during Lu Li’s old life, there were only a few who owned it. Those lucky ones had received it either through draws or special events.
Not only did the mount have a low drop rate, but it was also very good-looking. It was better looking than the Skeletal Horse and Headless Paladin’s Steed of the Undead.
“Wanderer, go get the mount,” Nuo Yu encouraged as he patted Rain Like A Wanderer’s shoulder.
It would be ideal if this was Remnant Dream’s wheel; her incredible luck would at least make everyone feel like they had a chance.
“Don’t give me too much pressure,” Rain Like A Wanderer said as he smiled bitterly.
As expected, he didn’t receive the mount. He only received a Gold grade equipment, but was quickly cheered up by its good Attributes and happily swapped it with what he was currently wearing
Hachi Chan’s luck was still average. This time she received Revive, a skill that most Druids had.
Nuo Yu also drew an equipment, but it wasn’t as good as the one that Rain Like A Wanderer had. Everyone watched in anticipation for Remnant Dream to draw the Dark Gold grade bow. It came with three extremely good special effects and wasn’t far off from a legendary equipment.
If she got it, it would probably be the most powerful Hunter weapon in circulation.
