Chapter 1813: Fel Reaver Blueprints
The Stair of Destiny was no longer the exclusive territory of Glory Capital and Ruling Sword. There were already many other clubs and even casual players here.
There were also many available quests. Whenever the game officials released a new map, many quests were also created that would reward players with access to the new map. Many players would receive the quests unwittingly and eventually find their way into the Outland. There were some players that did realize that they were completing a quest to gain access to a new map, but they weren’t that interested in travelling to the Outland. Instead, they would sell the quest’s clues to high-end players.
After all, the Outland monsters were all very powerful. If a player didn’t have at least a few pieces of level 60 Dark Gold equipment, there was no point in going. It was better to cash-in on the quest. Under normal circumstances, the clues could be sold for an average of 3000 gold coins. If you were lucky, you could even sell them for 5000-6000 gold coins. To an average player, this amount of money was plenty.
Most of the players who entered the new map were receiving quests from the Stair of Destiny. They were all trying to level up as quickly as possible to avoid falling behind. There were very few like Lu Li, venturing into the depths of the Hellfire Peninsula to fight Wild Bosses.
Deep Watersong from Drizzle Court had not yet reached level 61, so it was difficult for him to resist the monsters. He had to regularly transfer the aggro between himself and another Druid. When such a transfer happened, everyone had to stop attacking, otherwise, the aggro could easily be stolen away. A Druid Main Tank was also ineffective for various reasons, so they wouldn’t have done this unless absolutely necessary.
This made the fight more difficult than it should have been. When the Gryphon Paladins flew away, Razorsaw’s HP was still more than 30%. Moreover, the bombing had actually left the Boss in a weakened state. If not for this state, they would have eventually been wiped. However, even in this state, they still struggled to finish off the Boss.

Lu Li’s strategy was simple; they just needed to stall for time. The main focus was on safety. He didn’t need anyone to deal a certain amount of damage to kill the Boss – everyone just needed to stay alive. It was an arduous journey to this area of the map, so it would be too much trouble for them to travel back if they died.
“You guys need to be a little faster,” Lu Li said.
“Groups 9 to 12, come with me to cut them off. Everyone else, move ahead. Warriors, make sure to protect the healers and Breezy.”
Wandering saw that there was a dense pack of monsters heading their way. Moreover, there was a Fel Reaver patrolling the area that could stumble onto them soon, so he decisively issued some orders.
After the main force withdrew, even if the remaining teams could protect themselves, they might not be able to deal with all the monsters before the Fel Reaver arrived. He was essentially issuing a death certificate to everyone that was staying behind.
However, sacrifices were sometimes necessary and a skilled commander like Wandering would know how to make those sacrifices. Moreover, he had chosen to stay among those players as well, so those who were forced to stay had nothing to complain about.
With Wandering’s example, the supporting players quickly moved in and actually arrived much more quickly than expected.
Lu Li had never missed Azure Sea Breeze as much as he did now.
“Lu Li, can you stop looking at me like that? If you keep doing that, I’m going to have nightmares tonight,” Azure Sea Breeze said, looking disgusted.
“I’m deducting 5 points from Breezy for a negative attitude. We’ve come so far, and you aren’t running head-on to pull the monsters. Isn’t that basically abandoning your post?” Lu Li questioned angrily. Breezy lacked discipline and Lu Li hadn’t reprimanded him these last few days, so he was getting a little out of control.

“Damn you Lu Li.”
Azure Sea Breeze wasn’t depressed; he just had never seen such a shameless person before.
With the addition of Azure Sea Breeze, the situation immediately changed. His profession was a Main Tank, which was exactly the nemesis of Razorsaw. The ordinary attacks that Deep Watersong was taking were dealing at least 5000-8000 damage, but Azure Sea Breeze only took 3000-4000 damage. This meant that the fight was much more stable.
“Did Dreamy come?” Lu Li asked.
“I’m here,” Remnant Dream announced as she jumped up. “Why couldn’t you see me?”
“Oh, my bad. You are a little short,” Lu Li said as kindly as he could make that statement sound.
“I’m going on strike!” Remnant Dream shouted, then turned to Water Fairy and continued, “Water sis, Lu Li is bullying me. He touched my butt!”
“Pervert!”
Everyone came together to attack Lu Li.
Of course, the joking around was fine, as long as they didn’t delay the progress of defeating the Boss. Under the attacks of 200 to 300 players, its HP was soon to be depleted.
Although Razorsaw didn’t have a name, that didn’t mean it wasn’t a Wild Boss. The fact that they had been the first to clear it was broadcasted on the World Channel, and all the other clubs who were at the Stair of Destiny with Hachi Chan were fuming.
“Dreamy, go loot the body. You’re the best,” Lu Li called out. He had to suck up to her now after he called her short.
“How much are you paying?” she asked, suddenly feeling greedy.
“I will give you all the gold coins I have in my backpack,” Lu Li offered with a sad expression, which satisfied Remnant Dream.
There were two rare materials, and a siege blueprint…
Wait… is this?
The Fel Reaver Blueprint!
Lu Li was completely shocked, and quickly shoved the blueprint into his backpack. He could publish the blueprint’s attributes, or he could choose to hide them.
He had always wanted to find this blueprint, but he hadn’t taken the time to fight the Mo’arg Engineer.
In fact, the Mo’arg Engineer only had a low probability of dropping that blueprint. He never imagined that it would be dropped from Razorsaw. If you actually thought that Razorsaw was the Mo’arg Engineer himself, then it would explain why he was capable of dropping this blueprint.
However, Lu Li had not seen this blueprint before in all of his previous life.
The Fel Reaver blueprint wasn’t the most valuable of Engineering blueprints, but it was one most paid attention to. If Lu Li sold this blueprint to a club with a Stronghold, then he easily could have paid for his sister’s treatment. However, he had never heard of any other monsters dropping this blueprint except for the Mo’arg Engineer.
In fact, this was the result of a later patch. In the earliest days, Razorsaw could drop two Fel Reaver blueprints but this severely affected the balance of the Stronghold Wars, which was why this change was put into effect. For the remainder of Dawn’s lifespan as a game, there wouldn’t be more than 10 Fel Reaver blueprints dropped, and the Fel Reavers constructed by players would also be greatly weakened.
Considering the poor success rate of constructing a Fel Reaver, a lot of materials needed to be spent on making it. There were many clubs that eventually just let the blueprint collect dust in the guild warehouse.

Blood Quest - A LitRPG
Leon's family has been diagnosed with a new type of incurable blood disease. It's an absolute death sentence and when it turns aggressive, you only have a few more years of painful life left to live. His mother has just begun the last years of the disease when a person supposedly comes back from death with supernatural abilities. He talks about a choice you get after death--get an extra chance to come back to life, or die. Even with Leon's diminishing life span, he won't consider the option of going there, until he meets another survivor who had the same goal as him and succeeded. Leon has a choice to make—die now for a chance to save his mother, or die in a few years, where the disease rapidly melts his muscles from his own body. He enters a game-like world, a sort of limbo, where his ultimate goal is to climb the tower of Katastroph before his mother's time runs out. There are a few problems with this though. The tower is almost impossible to beat, if you die you won't revive, and only three people in over twenty years have actually made it back. Leon has two years to climb the tower, with the help of the few people willing to try, while Ai, the tutorial guide, makes things harder for them. ***** The story starts pretty dark but goes onto a lighter tone. Then (more) dark again. Disclaimer: This story is an experimental project and I hope to get any and all feedback you can give me. Warning: First draft. Chapters tend to be between 3400-4100 words long (about 8-11 A4-pages). Mentioning it since I've seen it in other fictions :P Sometimes they're shorter, sometimes they're longer. ******************************** CHAPTER RELEASES UPDATE: As the first "book" in the series is done, I'm going to release coming chapters somewhat sporadically, and when Writathon ends, I'll probably go back to publishing one chapter per weekend. We'll just have to wait and see! I hope you enjoy the story! I really appreciate all comments and feedback, so if you have anything to say, feel free to voice it :) ************ [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
