After the chief had been pushed away, the little Hunter went forward to loot the equipment. Lu Li felt mistreated as he squatted outside the group and listened to Remnant Dream. “Gold, lots of gold! Thank you, Lu Bro, for your generosity. 33 Strengthening Stones and three gems with the following attributes. Does anyone want them? They will be number one, two and three. Their number corresponds with their starting price. Now start bidding.”

Not only did they let her loot the equipment, but she was also allowed to auction them away. Lu Li just sighed and took out his fishing rod. The hook he casted plunged into the magma. The fishing rod was not the one borrowed from Star Baby, but it was given to him by Water Fairy.

Lu Li thought one of the gems was pretty good. It was a gem that provided a special effect— a probability that Backstab would not consume energy. However, when he saw that Water Fairy was bidding, he didn’t bid for it. Chance-based effects did not work well for him anyway. He used very few gems with special effects, and he wanted to make sure that they were used effectively. This effect would probably just never trigger, knowing his luck. He didn’t want to rely on something that was based on probability.

The Rare Materials were pretty good, and they were all put into Lu Li’s backpack. These were not generally distributed. If you needed anything, you could redeem them from the guild by paying guild points or completing guild quests. There was also a Priest skill book – Enhanced Regeneration. The strength of this skill needed no explanation; Regeneration was a very important Priest skill. It was an instant cast skill that was very popular because it regenerated HP.

However, if there was a Druid Healer on the team, this skill would not be comparable to the Druid’s more popular continuous regeneration abilities. Druid Healers were experts in that area. The Priest’s heal was shorter and healed for less, but it was very useful in cases where the group had lost significant HP. This was because the regeneration skill could be casted on the whole group. When a player had only lost some HP, you could throw this skill onto them and basically not worry about them anymore.

Even though Star Baby was really excited for the skill book, she had already previously acquired equipment, so she didn’t have many points left. March Rain was also part of the original group, so even though she had to pay slightly more than she would like, she easily defeated Star Baby. In the end, the Enhanced Skill Book was assigned to March Rain, but her overall guild points didn’t change by much.

The rest of the skills books were also pretty good. There was one for Warriors and one for Mages. One was given to a new Warrior from Ruling Sword and the other was given to Deadly Green Orange from Drizzle Court.

There was some Gold equipment that no one wanted. The Dark Gold equipment was also not sold for many points. Everyone seemed to be saving for the Epic equipment. Executus was the hardest Boss they had fought in the Instance Dungeon, so if he didn’t drop a lot of good items, they would be speechless.

Core Forged Greaves!

The first Epic equipment that was dropped was already a good one. When Lu Li heard the name, he didn’t even need to look at the items attributes to be excited. He hadn’t paid much attention to the Molten Core set in his previous life since it had such a high-level requirement. After all, he didn’t know he would be born again. However, there were still some classic items that he knew about like The Thunderfury and Orange Hammer. Core Forged Greaves was also an item that was often mentioned, especially when most players turned level 60. This equipment was an exquisite Fire Resistance item, and it even resisted fire attacks from players, which made it even more valuable.

“This is pretty good,” Azure Sea Breeze commented, drooling at the equipment.

World’s Best Friend licked his lips, but he didn’t know how Lu Li would split it. This equipment couldn’t be assigned normally. As long as it was an equipment with a high impact on the general environment, it should be properly assigned by the head of the group. This piece of equipment was going to be very helpful for fighting Ragnaros the Firelord next week.

“Let me see the Fire Resistance shoes that the two of you are currently wearing,” Lu Li said hesitantly and carefully.

It wasn’t that he had to carefully decide who to give this equipment to. This equipment was definitely going to be assigned to Azure Sea Breeze, but he also had to be considerate to World’s Best Friend. He was Ruling Sword’s second main tank and had also made great contributions to the guild since he joined.

The two of them revealed their equipment’s attributes. Azure Sea Breeze had a level 60 Epic equipment and World had a level 55 item with attributes that were a lot worse. Azure Sea Breeze wasn’t called Dawn’s number one Main Tank for nothing; his actual strength supported his confidence. Azure Sea Breeze’s equipment level was probably higher than Lu Li’s on average. The whole of Ruling Sword probably couldn’t compare to him. In addition to doing Instance Dungeons with Lu Li, he had also participated in many Wild Boss kills.

“How about this, we’ll give this item to Breezy for 105 points,” Lu Li suggested. “World, you can then use Azure’s shoes, but I won’t deduct any points. Your current shoes can go to the guild warehouse.”

“Okay, thanks Boss,” World’s Best Friend cheerfully accepted. He was quite happy with the outcome.

Lu Li’s handling of the Core Forged Graves was not necessarily fair, but it kept everyone happy. Deducting 105 points from Azure Sea Breeze was a major blow to his points. Next time, World would have a better chance of competing against him for items. If this was any other team, the head of the team would not have given any items away without deducting points, nor would he have given Azure Sea Breeze’s item to World’s Best Friend.

Although Azure Sea Breeze received the item, it was a costly price to pay. He might have gained a new Epic item, but he also lost his Bloodfist armour. Other than the inferior fire resistance attributes, the other attributes were not that far behind. Lu Li gained an exquisite Epic equipment that Azure Sea Breeze had at no cost. As for the level 55 Epic armour he had, it was about time to replace that item anyway.

The others didn’t care much for that item. The equipment was for Tanks and the others had accepted that they simply had no chance of obtaining it.

Finkle’s Lava Dredger!

This was a two-handed Healing Hammer. The end of the description read, ‘Property of the Great Traveller, Finkle Einhorn.’. It was a very unique item. There were very few Tanky Healers that would be carrying a two-handed Healing Hammer. Druids might want this item, and if a Shaman had no other option, they might too.

But no matter the profession, it wasn’t a particularly ideal drop for anyone.

Its shape was also quite interesting. The head of the hammer looked like a gear that was continually spinning. The hammer was not something Lu Li cared about, and neither the Druids nor the Tanky Healers wanted it. This Epic weapon was almost left unsold. Fortunately, there was a Paladin who wanted to collect it.
