Chapter 1866: Begrudging Defeat

Elevenless started to fight back, but before he could land a single attack, Lu Li had already moved off to the side .

He had left combat and entered Stealth again!

Did he plan to just keep grinding until he died?

Elevenless almost started to laugh out loud . His equipment’s Lifesteal was quite high, but his HP regeneration was even higher . Even if he was standing still, Lu Li wouldn’t be able to kill him with such low damage .

“Ruling Sword is probably going to lose this one . ”

There were two guest commentators invited today – Stellar Union Silver Radiant from Azure Guard and Unforgettable Maple from Majin Temple .

Unforgettable Maple grinned as he said, “If Lu Li played Elevenless normally, he would definitely have lost . ”

“Does that mean that Lu Li is playing different to normal?” Stellar Union Silver Radiant questioned with a puzzled expression .

“He’s not showing it; he is weak . The low damage that we are seeing is because of his equipment, but I don’t know what other strange effects it might have,” Unforgettable Maple said, then began to gloat, “But I can see that the effects are beginning to work, because Elevenless is beginning to panic . ”

Elevenless really was panicking . Although Lu Li’s initial damage was quite low, the additional effects that followed were truly digusting .

There were slashes all over him, and he was affected by Bleed .

As his body continued to bleed, he was taking damage at the rate of ten or more points at a time . With over 1000 HP, it would be a long time before he would bleed out . Since he had some HP regeneration, this match would likely have no end point . In that case, the System would provide an expert analysis, and Lu Li would likely suffer a technical loss .

Unfortunately, Alfred’s Ingot-Handler Set had an inherent weakness towards slash attacks like these .

Even if he took a little bit of Slash damage, his HP regeneration and the Lifesteal effects would be lost .

Lu Li didn’t even need to do anything . He just needed to ensure that Elevenless was continually suffering from Slash damage, which was why he deliberately equipped this relatively weaker equipment .

The damage was low at the beginning, but as the Slash effects began to stack, they would started dealing a lot more damage .

“Elevenless looks quite pitiful,” Stellar Union Silver Radiant sighed . He had also heard of the conflict between Lu Li and Elevenless . He thought that today was an opportunity for Elevenless to turn it around, and didn’t expect the outcome would be the same today .

“Oh dear, I’ve talked to him about this before . He shouldn’t be so wanton with his newfound abilities . But he never listens, and loves showing off every new little thing that he acquires,” Unforgettable Maple muttered .

If Unforgettable Maple was the one assigning the line-up, he would have sent someone else to fight Moonlight . He would then send another person to finish off Moonlight . After Lu Li defeated the second person, Elevenless would come in with his newfound equipment and defeat Lu Li . He would then go on to defeat Mu Qiu in the same way . If they had done this, they would have been able to decisively win the individual rounds .

Unfortunately, Elevenless was too greedy, and thought he could take down three players . This gave Lu Li enough time to prepare for his strategy .

“I thought Elevenless’ equipment was hard to counter, but it turns out that it is affected by Slash attacks,” Stellar Union Silver Radiant commented .

“I don’t think there is any equipment that cannot be countered . My guess is that Slash attacks are not the only way to counter it, but in a match like this, there isn’t much time to work out what the counters are . All you can do us consider yourself to be unlucky for facing such a strategy . ”

Unforgettable Maple couldn’t help but sigh when thinking about how lucky Lu Li had been today .

“Elevenless…” Stellar Union Silver Radiant had really wanted to see Lu Li defeated .

“There is still a chance . Both players have given up their optimal equipment for their respective strategies, so victory is still contingent on their individual technique . Elevenless still has a chance of coming back,” Unforgettable Maple commented wisely .

“Unfortunately, Elevenless’ mental fortitude is poor,” Stellar Union Silver Radiant chimed in .

Elevenless’ mental fortitude was really not very steadfast . He found that after his effects had been mitigated by Lu Li, he was quickly killed while Lu Li managed to retain two thirds of his HP .

After defeating Elevenless, Lu Li immediately switched his equipment .

This Slash equipment had very little damage output, and his Stealth level had been reduced to a level that a Berserker could easily discover him .

The second player from Wings of Dawn was Tracer, a Hunter . Hunters were currently the best professional for dealing with Thieves .

In the end, Lu Li still failed . The lack of HP was one aspect of it, but Lu Li had already used many skills and effects on Elevenless . There were also some effects, such as the Supreme Ring, that he didn’t want to use .

For the individual rounds, Ruling Sword had lost .

Ruling Sword gained 1 point, while Wings of Dawn had acquired 3 points .

During the intermission, Lu Li and the others met up to discuss the matches . It wasn’t just Elevenless that they had to talk about .

“Our equipment strength has fallen behind,” Lu Li stated, opening up the meeting .

Moonlight and Mu Qiu nodded solemnly . They had both fought Elevenless and were both embarrassed with their performances . They were completely helpless against their opponent and found themselves slowly being chipped away at until they lost .

“I’ll get a set of Slash equipment later for Elevenless,” Moonlight said .

“Their other players’ equipment is not bad either . Tracer’s equipment is also generally better than ours,” Lu Li recalled . He roughly calculated everyone’s attack and defense strength based on their damage . He was able to do this even though he was semi-illiterate .

“It seems that we have to play well in the team round . Someone take my spot . I’m still not good at playing a warrior,” Mu Qiu sighed before volunteering his position .

Their strategy turned out to be very simple – use Slash equipment to limit Elevenless’ HP regeneration and Lifesteal before focusing their firepower on him, as he was the biggest threat to them .

Moonlight, Fat Monkey, Kitty Likes Meat, Lu Li and Innocent Child were the starters with March Rain and Mu Qiu as the substitutes .

Running a double-Mage composition posed a great threat to Warriors and using Innocent Child instead of March Rain would ensure that their Healer would not be one-shot in return . Innocent Child was a Druid that couldn’t heal nearly as much as March Rain, but his survivability and crowd control were definitely better .

Elevenless, Dream 13, Falling Smile, Faker than Wind and Tracer were the starters of the

other team . It was a double-healer composition .

Falling Smile was a Priest and Faker than Wind was a Tanky Healer . The synergy between Priests and Tanky Healers was quite strong . Paladins had many protection skills that could protect the Priest while the Priest healed the other players . To kill the Priest, you first had to kill the Paladin that was protecting them, which was something that was very difficult to do .

If the two healers were working on protecting their Berserker…

Lu Li felt that this was going to be a hard fight .

But in fact, the bitter fight that he expected didn’t happen . It took four players to attack their well-protected Berserker, which had become an almost impossible task, especially since Elevenless tried to avoid confrontation with Moonlight as much as possible .

The goal of Wings of Dawn was to kill Moonlight . After all, there was no one that could kill Innocent Child at this stage .

Innocent Child’s survivability was strong, but the shortcomings of that was also obvious . The fact that he healed less meant that he lacked the ability to quickly regenerate his teammates’ HP . In the end, he failed to keep Moonlight alive .

More importantly, the players in Wings of Dawn simply had better equipment .

Since they were all on their way to level 70 from level 60, any equipment they had now was transitory . Even if they got a First Clear from an Instance Dungeon, acquiring strong equipment wouldn’t do that much for them .

There wasn’t much difference in strength between all the level 60 equipment .

This was the reason that Lu Li and the others were wearing whatever equipment they had . They hadn’t even thought about farming for better equipment .

They couldn’t just wait until they were level 70 either, as the major clubs would all have exquisite gear by then .

However, Wings of Dawn was an exception to that rule .
