Chapter 1583: Swift Zulian Tiger
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
They knew that they couldn’t beat Hachi Chan but they weren’t too disappointed.
They could always run the dungeon again and again. Remnant Dream could take the first tiger and no one would object against it because on the rare chance that it dropped, it would be because of her lucky hands.
There were other players in Dawn that were very lucky as well.
These people were just naturally blessed by the game to have insane luck, and Hachi Chan was definitely one of them. If a player found out that they were lucky, they would recommend themselves to a major guild. Once their luck was verified, they would always be part of the raids and dungeons even if they were an incompetent player.
Many players that were very lucky would set terms and conditions before joining the guild, such as receiving first priority on an item of their class or rare items and mounts.
There were different tiers of lucky players and Hachi Chan was definitely up there.
Because of her value to the guild, if she wanted an item, Lu Li would rarely oppose her. Her value was worth much more than one or two mounts.
“I’ll start looting now. Everyone stop talking,” Remnant Dream announced seriously.
Hachi Chan covered her mouth and stared nervously with her big eyes. She was hoping for the mount to drop as well, even though she didn’t need any new mounts. She had completed many rare and random quests that had rewarded her with a collection of rare mounts. She simply wanted the mount to drop so that Remnant Dream’s desire could be fulfilled and she wouldn’t be woken up by her in her beauty sleep.
However, no matter how much everyone wanted it, there was still a very low chance of dropping.

Remnant Dream would always put her leg over Hachi Chan when she fell asleep. This was something that she couldn’t control and it was something she had done since they were kids.
“Enhancement Stones, rare materials, skill book, equip, equip, equip…”
Remnant Dream went through the Boss’ corpse like a little thief as she flung various unwanted items behind her towards the group. Lu Li was like the garbage collector, picking up all the junk that she didn’t want.
There were more than 100 Enhancement Stones now because the game had increased the drop rate. However, the prices of the Enhancement Stones did not fall because of their high demand. The increased drop rate just meant that rich people could enhance their equipment even more.
Most of Lu Li’s equips were enhanced 5 times, with some only enhanced 3 or 4 times. The Enhancement Stones they found from dungeons were enough for him.
Once you enhanced more than 6 times, there was a chance of breaking the item which wasn’t worth it in Lu Li’s opinion.
Ruling Sword had recently just got out of their financial slump, so they couldn’t afford to have Lu Li blowing up a godly item. Besides, Ruling Swords had always relied on their mechanics to outplay opponents.
The Enhancement Stones were evenly distributed and nobody wanted the skill book. Lu Li decided to put the skill book as well as the Dark Gold equipment into the guild storage.
He threw these equips into the guild storage without consulting the people from Drizzle Court and Peerless City. Ruling Swords could clear Zul’Gurub without Drizzle Court or Peerless City so their players were happy just to be part of the First Clear. The First Clear rewards were worth a lot more than these useless Dark Gold pieces.
Water Fairy wasn’t offended either because she knew most of them were only worth a few gold.

“Betray’s Boot for Priests. Who wants them?” Lu Li asked.
“Me,” Star Baby called out as she raised her hand.
Lu Li deducted 1 point and gave her the equipment. The piece had decent stats and could be useful as a backup piece.
Professional players all had more than one set of equipment.
There was always a small chance of losing your equipment when you died in the Wild or during Stronghold wars.
Even though it was just one piece of equipment, the overall power of the player would drastically decrease. The last time Fat Monkey and Lu Li dueled, Lu Li took off a shoulder piece and Fat Monkey’s confidence sky rocketed.
You always needed backups to minimize the decrease in power if you were to lose a key piece.
“Primal Hakkari..” Lu Li mumbled as he picked up an item.
“Wow, Hachi Chan, it dropped, it dropped!”
“Wow, Dreamy, you’re amazing. Good job!”
The two girls hugged each other and screamed while jumping up and down.
Lu Li was speechless; was her luck really that good? It was a mount that he had never seen in his past life and they found it in one go.
No wonder why there was a famous saying for this mount.
Whenever someone asked for the chances of the Swift Zulian Tiger mount dropping, the answer was when it did, the drop rate was 100%, and when it didn’t, it was 0%.
The unlucky ones wouldn’t get one even after spamming the dungeon for 10 years.
The lucky ones, like Remnant Dream, would find it in one go.
Lu Li was almost in tears because he knew that he was one of those people that wouldn’t find one even after 10 years. Not only was he not lucky, he was notorious for being unlucky.
This was why the value of Remnant Dream was so high.
And so, Lu Li cleared his throat and asked, “Dreamy, can you summon it out for us to see?
“I haven’t paid for it yet.”
Remnant Dream was actually very mature. Even though she knew her position and value in the guild, she was still taught to be respectful.
“Okay, I’ll take off 100 points,” Lu Li said generously.
This mount was priceless and would probably be worth more than a few pieces of legendary equips. 100 points was nothing for this.
“Deduct mine, deduct mine!” Hachi Chan cried out as she jumped around Lu Li like a little bunny.
“If it’s only 100 points, just deduct mine,” Remnant Dreams said, trying to play it off.
“No, we had a deal, you can’t go back on this,” Hachi Chan insisted. She knew what her friend was scheming.
“One’s dumb and the other is stupid. They’re both hopeless,” Azure Sea Breeze sighed as he looked at them and shook his head.

Alive?
In the ruins of a once glorious city, a mage awakens. As the sole survivor(?) of the cataclysm that destroyed his entire species, he’s forced to adapt. While learning the intricacies of his new body, he must first carve out a place for himself in a familiar yet foreign world before he can set out to reclaim his heritage. I cannot stress this enough: the character is not human, do not expect him to react like one. I know the hand on the cover only has five finger, but I doubt I am going to find a royalty free radiography with two perfectly functional thumbs placed in a sensible way anytime soon. The rewrite is finished. Beta readers are welcomed and I am still wondering whether I should put the sci-fi tag or not.

The Curio Shoppe
Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz
