Chapter 1645: Overestimating One’s Capabilities
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Azure Sea Breeze wasn’t in a good mood.
All of his items were extremely powerful. His s.h.i.+eld was the legendary Elementium Reinforced Bulwark, and his main weapon was also at the very pinnacle of Epic weapons. However, he thought that he could become even stronger by replacing his weapon with the legendary Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker.
Actually, after so many Instance Dungeon runs, he was extremely close to making the Thunderfury.
He didn’t think that Lu Li would use him like this. He didn’t think that Lu Li would use his Elementium Ores to complete quests. Now, the pool of Elementium Ores that he had from before was nearly emptied. This was going to delay the crafting of the Thunderfury by many, many days.
“Breezy, work harder!” Lu Li yelled.
Breezy wasn’t too pleased, so naturally, he didn’t put in much effort.
Azure Sea Breeze didn’t say anything, but his tearing eyes were undoubtedly caused by Lu Li’s actions.
“You can use your DKP and buy all of the Elementium ores from the inner club’s dungeon runs this week, happy?” Lu Li offered. He couldn’t do much. This idiot really thought that Lu Li would just take them and forget about it.
“Aiya, I was frozen just then. The servers aren’t that stable, are they?”
Azure Sea Breeze mood immediately lifted. He didn’t even care about the nonsense that came out of his mouth.
It wasn’t that he didn’t try to aggro the Boss, but that this Boss wasn’t that easy to pull. Fortunately, he quickly managed to drag the Boss to the place that Lu Li wanted.
The Megalodon could move on land as well, but their movements were rather peculiar.
It wiggled towards Azure Sea Breeze, wanting to use its gigantic teeth and powerful jaws to tear this stupid s.h.i.+eld-holding human in half. After receiving the blood of dragons, it hadn’t been provoked like this.
Originally, it was a tiny minnow fish.
A fully matured minnow was only around 7 to 8 centimetres long. Fishermen were usually reluctant to deal with these minnows. This was because although the flesh was decent, they were extremely small in size and had many bones. However, these fish were usually caught and then used as bait for the much larger fish.
This small minnow knew its fate, so it lived in fear every day.
Escaping capture became its only goal in its short life, until one fateful day, it was lifted from the waters by a powerful force. It knew that it was about to die and that there was no chance of it surviving.
It often thought about its demise and the sensations of having its fragile bones and flesh being ripped into pieces by sharp teeth.
Would it hurt?
Would it fall unconscious?
Or would it feel the sensation of being ripped apart?
Its death never came.
It opened its eyes and made eye contact with an unbelievably large pair of gold eyes. The pupils of these golden eyes were purple and had a mysterious yet powerful feel to them.
The minnow had heard of something like this.
This was a 130-year-old Sturgeon. This sturgeon had met the Tidehunter Elemental Neptulon and personally witnessed Neptulon’s magic. It was said that the ocean waves were all caused by Neptulon’s magic.
If the minnow could die in such an existence’s hands, then it would not be a bad death at all.
However, the minnow could not foresee what was about to happen.
“Little creature. Are you willing to use your life to serve me?”
Although it could not understand the words, the minnow knew that this being was talking to it and it even knew what the being said.
It hesitated for a moment, then decided to serve this being.
The strong would never ask for the opinions of the weak. If that was the case, then the strong would always ask for a desirable and satisfactory response.
“I am the Blue Dragon Azuregos. You must remember this name, because I will bestow upon you a mighty fate.”
Once this was said, the small minnow felt that something had entered its body.
It was devouring the minnow’s body and remaking a new one.
The pain lasted for so long that the little minnow was now insensitive to all feeling. However, the pain remained engraved into the minnow’s soul.
One hundred years had pa.s.sed.
In these 100 years, the little minnow experienced this pain again and again. Its appearance and power were evolving continuously.
It didn’t know what it was anymore.
The fish that originally preyed upon and hunted the small minnows were now the ones being hunted.
Even the servants of the Tidehunter Elemental would avoid it.
It didn’t know that this was because it emitted the power of the Blue Dragon. It thought that it had transformed into an existence that rivalled the power of the Tidehunter Elemental himself and that it had become the strongest being in the whole of the Great Sea.
Now, these unknowing and naïve adventurers dared to provoke it and wage battle with it.
It needed to let these people know the insurmountable strength that it possessed.
“Alright, World’s Best Friend, go to the left side where I indicated. Wandering, go to the right side to where I indicated. As soon as I yell the command to begin, both of you use Taunt. No one should be behind or in front of the Main Tank. Other players, use all your remaining strength to DPS.”
Lu Li couldn’t be bothered. He was too lazy. As soon as he let out the call, he decided to sit aside and rest.
This Megalodon was quite easy to deal with.
It was one of Dawn’s easiest Bosses to fight. Nearly all Megalodons could be defeated using the same tactic.
Naturally, this Megalodon was not an exception. It couldn’t even deal damage with its head and tail. It couldn’t understand why it was being killed by these ants.
Although this Megalodon was a quest monster, it was still a monster. This was different to Doctor Weavil.
Four people managed to receive a skill point from this battle.
Remnant Dream went up to loot the Boss’ corpse. There were many Strengthening Stones and three exquisite gems. Not a single one was worthless. One of the gems’ effects was focused on Nature-based long-range DPS cla.s.ses, which meant that it was for Hunters. Remnant Dream received this one, while the second one was for magic-based continuous DPS, so it was given to a Warlock. Kitty Likes Meat won against Sesame Rice Ball to take the gem. The last one was for magic-based burst damage. There was quite a bit of compet.i.tion for this gem, but in the end, Lu Li decided to give it to Fat Monkey.
Improved s.h.i.+eld Block!
This was an Enhanced Skill Book!
Furthermore, this was a skill book for the very core skill of Tanks. Azure Sea Breeze’s face immediately went purple upon seeing it.
He stared straight at Lu Li, waiting for Lu Li to give him the book.
“Sigh…You already have Improved s.h.i.+eld Wall. World’s Best Friend doesn’t even have an Enhanced skill yet.”
Lu Li couldn’t decide what to do. Clearly, it was because he remembered that Azure Sea Breeze had slacked in the fight just then.
“Don’t! Brother Li, I have wronged you. Who said that World’s Best Friend doesn’t have an Enhanced skill? He has Improved Defensive Position! It’s even better than mine!”
Azure Sea Breeze didn’t care about his image anymore. He had to do this, otherwise, he would regret it.
