The Legendary Thief Vol 4 Chapter 112

Chapter 112 (Snow Queen)

Really, the monsters here were not only so many but also very crowded, very suitable for the high-damage AOE skill, Blazing Rainstorm. Most importantly, the Health and Magic Resistance of the monsters here were unusually low. Although Lu Xue Han’s Magic Attack wasn’t very high, but she could burn them all fast enough.

I immediately clear the way to the pass leading to the path and stood at the most narrow place. Then I said to her, “Ignite some fire under my feet, then you can burn the monsters below. Don’t let them get too close, most of them are long-range attack type. Don’t get yourself insta-killed.”

“Don’t worry.”

She smiled and then released a Blazing Rainstorm where I stood. The cooldown of the skill was only five seconds, but the duration of the skill itself was a full 60 seconds. A few minutes later, all the area near our side was enveloped by fire rain. My Experience bar was visibly growing up.

“Lin Fan, there are some equipment dropped down there.”

Lu Xue Han shouted lightly behind me. I took a careful look. Indeed, there was a green equipment shining among the monster crowd. However, to pick up the equipment at current would be too unrealistic. Don’t say whether or not I could pick up the equipment, the monster crowd in front of me were already terrible. I relied on the narrow path to withstand some small number of monsters, however, the monsters below were squeezing ahead in packs. Just when Lu Xue Han had burned down a batch of monsters, another group would immediately fill its position. It was like an endless killing. As for the silver coins dropped by the monsters, no need to even think about it.

I gritted my teeth and said, “We shouldn’t pick it up for now. We need to burn all the monsters first. If we go down now, we won’t be able to come back again. If all the monsters were to come up here, your low Defense might not be able to withstand them.”

Lu Xue Han nodded to agree and then started to cast down another fire again.

Two hours later, we finally cleared the monsters nearest to us, which was about 1/4 of the number of monsters. I had long since leveled up already and was at level 40 with 40% Experience. Lu Xue Han leveled up even faster, directly from level 36 to level 37. She even ranked better than Murong Shan Shan now in the ranking list.

We needed to clear out the monsters first. The equipment dropped by a monster would disappear within 20 minutes, so we could only pick up the equipment within the 20 minutes after the equipment was dropped. But that was already enough. In just 20 minutes, there were already eight pieces of green equipment and two blue ones, all around level 32. Very practical.

Lu Xue Han looked at the monster crowd in the distance and smiled, “I think we don’t need to guard this pass anymore and should go over there to continue burning them. The monsters shouldn’t know to surround us from here.”

“No, you can continue moving toward there while burning them. I will stealthily pick up the equipment from the dead monsters down there. It’s still money. We’ll split it equally.”

“Hehe, okay then. You go down, and I will walk toward there.”

…

In just a few steps, she had already crossed over while releasing some Blazing Rainstorms. Those monsters really didn’t know to go around from the small path at the back, they just walked back and forth foolishly at where they stood and were burned down in a blink of an eye. Twenty minutes later, another small pack of monsters was cleared. A lot of shining equipment laid down on the ground. My eyes also glittered. I immediately went over stealthily and picked up the equipment one by one. My happy mouth kept gaping for a while.

“Xue Han, burn at another location. After I pick all the equipment, I will come over.”

…

Lu Xue Han burned very happily. In a blink of an eye, five hours had passed, and both of us had leveled up again. I was already at level 41 and Lu Xue Han was at level 38 now. Her level was higher than Murong Shan Shan’s. That Knight, “Released That Girl”, was still only at level 40, placing him second in the city list. However, no matter how strong you are, there would always be someone stronger, there would always be a higher mountain. Although I had rapidly climbed up to level 41, but I was still unable to become the first in the country. That Impulsive Hotpot had somehow reached level 42 already, very sick to the extreme.

As we burned all the way down until it was almost eleven in the evening, the monsters throughout the hall were almost all cleared already. There was only a group in a corner left that we hadn’t killed. Together with Lu Xue Han, I walked up to look. It was a triangular-shaped corner. From the distance, we could see something like a throne over there, surrounded by a group of extraordinary monsters. The reason that they were extraordinary was mainly because they had a higher level than the others, all of them were over level 46.

Strange. The Snow Queen should be on that throne. Why couldn’t we even see a strain of her hair?

“What now?” Lu Xue Han looked at me and went on to say, “It’s time to sleep now. Do you still want to continue?”

“Of course. Clearing this place up would probably only take less than half an hour. After we clear this place then we will go offline to sleep.”

“Okay.”

Lu Xue Han rapidly walked to the rear of those monsters and covered them with the hot Blazing Rainstorm. After a while, these monsters finally turned into Experience after dropping a ground full of equipment. With a flash of a light, she had risen to level 39, and I had reached level 41 with 64% of Experience.

My inventory was almost full already, but these valuable equipment wouldn’t take too much place. I immediately ran over and wildly picked them up. Not just the equipment, I wouldn’t even let any gold coins to slip by. Roughly figured, from the moment we start here, we have gotten more than 3,000 gold coins. Just these gold coins itself wasn’t a small amount of fortune. The monsters here obviously had a higher drop rate, otherwise, they wouldn’t drop so many equipment and coins.

Lu Xue Han laughed from above and said, “Lin Fan, how many equipments did we get altogether? Do you need my help to sort it out?”

While still picking up the drops, I said, “Altogether, there’re about 180 pieces. We’ll count the exact number when we get back later on. My inventory is almost full, but should be still enough for this.”

“Whoosh~.”

As I was picking up some equipment, suddenly my Health went down over 1,000 points. What attacked me? Such a high Attack.

System Notification: You received the Snow Queen’s ice attack. Health loss 1,102 points, attack speed reduced by 50%, movement speed reduced by 50%. Because of the freeze damage, Health will reduce 50 points/second.

“Xue Han, help!”

I screamed as I retreated. I glanced at the back and saw a white figure gradually appeared on the throne. A snow-white cloth like a wedding dress fell next to the throne. The transparent cold figure of the Snow Queen became whole. Her cold face didn’t show any trace of emotion. Wrapped in a white dress, she held a green staff, which had a glow swiveling around it, and emitted a cold air. A frost hit my body and suddenly my Health dropped over 1,000 points again.

A white light illuminated, and Lu Xue Han’s large Healing arrived, giving me 2,100 points of Health. The additional 45% to the healing effect was really extraordinary.

“Lin Fan, you can start attacking. I will continue to heal you,” Lu Xue Han eagerly said while casting a curse on the Snow Queen.
