Chapter 1852: Extremely Expensive Materials

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Yesterday’s strange performance with the Orc Shaman Gar’rok made him feel uneasy . He suspected that the old guy was going to ask him to bring more materials and rob him blind .

This was something that was absolutely possible among NPCs, and was particularly the case amongst Goblins and various other races .

As such, Lu Li brought a small team of ten players over .

“This is the list of items . Given your attitude, you must be a rich person as you weren’t timid in offering the original list . I believe this new list will not pose an issue for you,” Gar’rok taunted when he saw that this solitary Thief had actually brought bodyguards .

“Believe me, I can bring a thousand more of these bodyguards . All of them are dispensable, but they are all also experts,” Lu Li threatened, then took the list .

He unfolded this seemingly small scroll and immediately felt a pang in his chest .

He remembered that the last time his levelled up his ring, he needed at least two or three of each item . This time, he needed to collect over 80 different rare materials, and he needed at least a dozen of each one . He even needed to collect over a hundred for one of the materials .

The total number was over 2500 rare materials .

Moreover, these weren’t just ordinary rare materials; these were the kinds that cost several thousand gold coins per unit .

As a rough estimate, the total price for all these items was more than 50 million dollars .

The last time he levelled up his ring, the total price was a few hundred thousand dollars . This time, it seemed that either the Game Company was trying to limit his progress, or that this NPC had gone insane .

If he had not been reborn and created a foundation of wealth for himself, the quest of levelling up this ring any further would have just been abandoned .

This was simply too much; he was being taken advantage of .

Lu Li looked at Gar’rok’s cruel eyes and hesitated . He was thinking about whether to mobilize a large number of players to destroy this area . Even if it couldn’t be done now, he didn’t have to wait longer than a month or two before everyone reached level 70 .

The Throne of the Elements was one of the Outland’s most dangerous areas, but since it was a place released to the players, there was nothing they couldn’t overcome .

“If you want, you can also bring the things you promised yesterday . ”

Gar’rok was obviously someone who was greedy beyond measure . He was completely unaware that he was already a dead man in Lu Li’s eyes .

“You might not believe it, but I need to add some elemental gems of my own to make this altar work . Please don’t compare this altar to ones you have used in the past,” Gar’rok added disdainfully .

“So, what would my ring be levelled up to?” Lu Li asked, showing his ring to the NPC .

The doubts in his heart were growing larger and larger . The strangeness in the interaction was even worse than yesterday . The NPC had never even seen his ring before; how could he have known what to put on the list of items?

Gar’rok glanced at the ring’s attributes before vaguely responding, “It will be beyond your imagination child . The price and reward will always be proportional . ”

“Please let me think about it,” Lu Li said .

He wanted to find Remulos and see if there was another way . The game world was so vast; he was sure that he didn’t need to rely solely on the Throne of the Elements .

Gar’rok seemed to see through what he was thinking and quickly dealt with his idea .

“Child, there are not many opportunities like this . With your current strength and what you can achieve, this is the only place that can provide what you need . ”

“Have you got the numbers?”

Lu Li had privately asked for White Bread, the person responsible for logistics, to pass the list onto the relevant persons .

After all, he didn’t pay much attention to chores like this . There were so many things in the warehouse that he couldn’t just spend all this time counting them up .

“It’s not a huge problem – they are all materials that we can obtain . The items that we don’t have, we could get from the Life Alliance players and Drizzle Court,” White Bread responded quickly .

Such a reply made Lu Li feel bittersweet .

Once upon a time, he needed to come up with all sorts of creative ways and use his advantage as someone who experienced rebirth to acquire the materials . Now, he just needed to give one instruction, and a large number of resources would immediately be mobilised for his use .

He once again looked at the long and expensive list and realized that it was only a small portion of what he could possibly acquire .

Of course, this was also because of Ruling Sword’s unique position when it came to Instance Dungeons . Not only did they get many First Clears, but they would also use the strategies they developed from taking First Clears to farm the Instance Dungeons over and over again .

“You have three days . If you can’t gather the resources within three days, then you will have to wait for three months before you can use the elemental altar as the elements will go berserk until then . ”

Gar’rok’s final words was the straw that broke the camel’s back .

“Okay, I will gather the materials as quickly as possible . I hope that the ring’s level will not disappoint me, otherwise…” Lu Li paused before saying, “You will see countless adventurers training here…”

“Heh, that’s not something I’m worried about,” Gar’rok said indifferently .

Lu Li didn’t have to wait three days . The materials were all already ready by noon .

Ruling Sword had acquired most of the materials on their own and the rest was supplied by Drizzle Court, Peerless City, the Life Alliance and Judgment Spear .

After taking out so many rare materials at once, Ruling Sword’s guild warehouse had been hit hard . Although Lu Li was the master of this guild, he couldn’t just take all fruits of their collective labour .

Therefore, Lu Li gave guild points to compensate everyone .

These points weren’t something that was so easily given out . Guild members with points could claim a monetary bonus at the end of the year, depending on how many points they had .

This was similar to giving out shares for the guild .

“The rest of you have to leave . This place doesn’t take kindly to strangers . ”

Even after seeing all these materials, the Gar’rok still didn’t have a positive expression .

“Alright, you guys can all go back now,” Lu Li instructed .

“I will be in Nagrand, and I will have two brothers with me . If you need anything, just call me,” Sesame Rice Ball said . If Lu Li needed troops, he would open a Summoning Portal and summon a large number of reinforcements .

“There is no need for that right now . It doesn’t make sense anyway; the Throne of the Elements isn’t something that our players can conquer right now,” Lu Li responded .

The main issue was that they weren’t high-levelled enough and they also didn’t have the required Resistance equipment . When Lu Li turned up here, he was basically being one-shot .
