wever, were not Lu Li’s target. He carefully searched and soon found what he had been looking for behind a building.
A giant clamshell!
It was a mussel that was the size of a house.
Based on how Dawn usually made their settings, the creature would at least be Boss level if it was still alive.
But now, it lay silently on the spot, not moving a single bit. The creature had been dead for many years already and obvious traces of time had been left behind on the surface of its shell.
Lu Li picked up a piece of rock and tapped it along the eroded lines of the clamshell.
It didn’t take long before he knocked off a huge chunk of shell.
He squeezed in from the hole that he knocked out and searched within the soft sand.
Lu Li was overjoyed to feel a sphere-shaped object with his hands, and he promptly grabbed it, then exited the giant mussel.
Blue Pearl: Production material.
Its description was simple, but Lu Li knew this was some good stuff.
Pearls were the most common material for making jewellery, and Blue Pearls were one of the best for this. Equipment made with Blue Pearls not only looked beautiful, but also had comparatively better attributes.
They were not a rare material, but were harder to obtain than average rare materials.
Only these kind of blue mussels would produce Blue Pearls, as the process took at least a hundred years.
Lu Li had wandered the seas outside of the Stranglethorn Vale for a few months in his previous life, which allowed him to gain a small fortune from them.
Currently, no one knew that there were blue pearls hidden within the seas nearby, which meant that he had no competition. Lu Li decided that he would thoroughly search this place.
Unfortunately, the refresh rate of this place was too low and some mussels didn’t even have anything inside of them.
After searching for about an hour, Lu Li had only managed to find five blue pearls, with two of them being average quality.
This was actually a pretty good result. In his past life, it would take him an entire day to reach this number. At that time, Lu Li wasn’t the only one searching underwater and it was quite common to accidentally run into players from the opposing faction.
“Oi, boss, what are you doing?” Azure Sea Breeze called as he logged on.
“I’m searching for pearls in the sea,” Lu Li replied.
“Wow, so much spare time in your hands. Are you finding these pearls to please girls?” Azure Sea Breeze teased.
“No,” Lu Li denied.
“Then are you gifting it to boys? Oh damn, boss, when did you start becoming gay?” Azure Sea Breeze yelled.
Lu Li, “……”
“Who’s gay? Who’s gay?” Judging from the volume, it was Hachi Chan.
“Whoever is gay isn’t even going to be chasing after you. Why are you so excited?” Azure Sea Breeze was left speechless.
“Have you two finally decided to date?” Hachi Chan asked in a hopeful tone.
“Prepare for the dungeon. Stay alert this time – I’m taking off points for every mistake,” Lu Li snapped.
“No way! Taking off points?” Azure Sea Breeze almost fainted on the spot. Whether he had made mistakes or not, he already had plenty of points taken off him.
“Take off points. Take off points!” Wandering had come online.
As the others also started logging on, Lu Li checked the time and started travelling towards the Howling Caves.
Everyone’s strength had greatly improved compared to last time.
Lu Li, Azure Sea Breeze and Lonesome Flower were all now LV23, while the others were all LV22, including Sakura Memories.
Level 23 would be enough to suppress the monsters in the Howling Caves (Heroic Mode).
The monsters that appeared along the way were cleared easily; it didn’t take long for the team to make it to the third boss – Pythas.
Pythas was originally childhood buddies with Naralex. His original name was Areon and he had amazing talent in the path of the Druids. He had even learned some Warrior skills.
This is what was so amazing about NPCs – it was as if class restrictions were only a decoration to them.
However, no matter how amazing he was, Areon had already lost his sanity.
After he fell, he changed his name and was now known as Pythas. With his new identity, he combined his close combat skills with his Druid knowledge, successfully becoming one of the most challenging bosses in the Howling Caves.
His signature skill was Thunderclap.
