Chapter 1913: Regretfully Losing One’s Loved
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Very soon, the monster was at their side. After engaging in hand-to-hand combat, they received the basic information of their opponent.
Ruul the Darkener!
“This power will destroy your world and obliterate everything!”
With this line spoken after the battle begun, the name of Ruul the Darkener, and the overwhelming Windseekers’ swords, Lu Li finally realised who this guy was.
He wasn’t as powerful as a Boss, but he was much more powerful than ordinary Elites.
The reason this Boss had appeared was because someone had attempted The Cipher of Damnation quest, but had failed to kill him. As such, this Boss that had been summoned for the quest had become a patrolling monster in Dragonmaw Stronghold.
In Lu Li’s last life around this time, the players were already powerful. Defeating Ruul was a piece of cake, so it was very rare for people who weren’t completing the quest to bump into this Boss.
Apparently, Ruul the Darkener was originally a skillful general under the command of Kael’thas. Ever since Prince Kael’thas joined the forces of Illidan, the Darkener had constantly been dissatisfied. He just didn’t understand why Illidan was worthy of the prince’s allegiance. When the prince revealed the news to Ruul the Darkener that he was going to defect from Illidan and choose to join Kil’jaeden, the Darkener pretended to be very calm, but in fact, he raged with fury in his heart.
This was because one of Kil’jaeden’s subordinates had killed his parents and turned their skulls into war trophies.
He gave this information to Illidan Stormrage, and pledged his eternal loyalty to him. And so, Illidan was protected against Kael’thas Sunstrider.
The Illidari Council, a.k.a. F4, was something that Kael’thas commissioned to monitor Illidan. But in the same way, Illidan used the F4 to monitor Kael’thas.
Illidan didn’t really say much. He gave Kael’thas something that he could never give Ruul – energy, a type of broken energy that allowed the Darkener to monitor Kael’thas’ each and every move…
To this day, the Darkener and his most favorite mount Karus – the Nether Dragon – wandered around Shadow Moon Valley.
Ruul the Darkener, who had been summoned out for the quest, was just a mirage. In fact, his real power was at least comparable to Queen Vashj. Moreover, he didn’t have in his hand ‘Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker.’
Even so, it was enough to make players envy him until their mouths watered.
“Be careful, the Boss’ attack is really high,” Lu Li reminded Water Fairy. He hit the Boss a few times and saw that his HP had already dropped by 3%. He needed to bandage himself first, so he swapped over to Water Fairy to have her resist the monsters.
If either of them were a Hunter, then things wouldn’t be so troublesome.
No matter how strong a Thief war, it couldn’t beat a tough-skinned pet Hunter.
Water Fairy finished off the ordinary monsters then took over with the Boss.
The two of them took turns to deal with the Boss, constantly depleting his HP.
The area that Lu Li and Water Fairy were in was right on the path of where Ruul the Defender patrolled. Many players who were training to level up had suffered from Ruul, which was the reason why this plot of empty land was so unpopular.
They watched with glee as they saw two unsuspecting Thieves step into the territory of Ruul the Darkener.
However, after the two Thieves and Ruul the Darkener clashed, only then did they realize in surprise that they actually weren’t one-shot.
What was this? Others would be gone after a couple hits, so how come these two Thieves had a chance of actually defeating this Boss?
During the battle, Lu Li did his best to guard against those people around them, worrying that they might get too excited and snatch the reward. This happened all the time in Dawn. After all, there was not much to lose, and a lot to gain.
It was a shame that he was looking at the wrong people. The real enemies were the ones who had gone in through the entrance.
Lu Li felt a soft body landing on himself. After that, Water Fairy was drowned in a sea of spells, as she fell into his arms and turned into a white light.
If Lu Li saw a scene like this in a movie, he would think it was funny.
However, when it happened in front of him, he completely forgot that this was a game. In reality, it wasn’t much of a loss, but his head was empty, and his heart was empty too. It was like losing something precious to him.
He refocused quickly, casting his Gale Steps to blink over to the other side of the Boss.
Spells were cast at the Boss, pulling away his aggro.
When the group surrounded Ruul, Lu Li’s shadow could no longer be seen.
“What a shame – one of them has been killed. Let’s see if there’s some equipment dropped.”
The person speaking laughed, commanding his subordinates to keep attacking the Ruul. He didn’t see Lu Li, who had disappeared into Stealth.
Actually, Lu Li was standing next to him. It was just that his expression was quite dumbfounded.
Lu Li had died in the game before, and the same went for Water Fairy. Moreover, Lu Li had never seen Water Fairy die. After all, the two of them had First Cleared Instance Dungeons one after the other.
However, Lu Li had never felt the feeling that he had just felt.
Under this sort of sudden attack, Lu Li had just forgotten for a moment that this was a game. He even thought that Water Fairy had just died in his own arms.
But what sort of feeling was that to have Water Fairy die in his own arms?
It was like heartbreak, like dazedness. It couldn’t be expressed clearly, but it was definitely something hard to bear. It was like someone fiercely stabbing a knife into your heart, like having your most valued possession snatched away.
It was only when someone went to pick up Water Fairy’s stuff that Lu Li fell back into the moment.
Rage overflowed in his heart. This group of people had to pay!
The person picking up things suddenly changed in their expression, because they had already encountered an attack, and they hadn’t noticed a Thief get close to them. This left him, who was usually very confident, completely dumbstruck.
He wasn’t sent out to loot because his fighting skills were subpar, but because he was the best at counterattacking Thieves.
They were a mercenary team, professionals in looting and plundering.
The info they had received was that there were two top Thieves in Dragonmaw Stronghold fighting Ruul the Darkener. As soon as they heard that, they knew their opportunity had come. No matter how strong top players were, they would definitely be finished off.
Unexpectedly, the female Thief shielded the male Thief from their spells, after which he ran off.
If he ran off, it wouldn’t an issue. There was something wrong in the head with these couples. Perhaps it was something called love that had dazed their brains. The one who survived would eventually run back to court death.
