The Great Thief Chapter 1801 – Pit Commander

Chapter 1801: Pit Commander

However, Drifting Rain wasn’t out of trouble just yet. The Pit Commander, who was attacking the camp, noticed them and sent out a strike team of two Wrath Masters, two Infernal Siegebreakers and a large of number of Fel Soldiers.

This number of troops wasn’t enough to wipe them out, but casualties were inevitable.

“Colonel Dulong, I order you to lead a group of people to support them.”

Lieutenant General Orion had been observing them and decided to send out some support. This was a decision that wasn’t made lightly, as sending troops out could mean that they wouldn’t be able to hold the main line of defence.

The fact that an Orc was ordering a human to do something was also quite strange.

However, the human commander didn’t hesitate at all. He quickly gathered a small team and rushed into the sea of Burning Legion units with Lu Li.

Lu Li had to follow them. This role was very important. As a mobile Thief, he could interrupt the Wrath Master’s Fear. As long as they stayed in formation, it wouldn’t be too difficult of a situation to overcome.

The two men successfully reached the reinforcements and killed the two Wrath Masters before finally reaching the Expeditionary Army at the Stair of Destiny.

“Look at what we brought,” Drifting Rain said proudly.

Several dozen artillery units appeared before Lu Li, exuding a murderous aura as they were arranged before him. They could barely imagine the number of Burning Legion units that they could kill with these.

Even though they were in a crisis earlier, Drifting Rain hadn’t brought these out.

The power of the artillery was obvious, but there were also obvious drawbacks. It was difficult to defend them, and it cost time to take them out of their backpacks while in battle. Also, once you brought them out, they couldn’t pack them back into their backpacks.

“This is great! Did you bring enough cannonballs?” Lu Li asked.

“In addition to the supply list you gave us, the rest of our backpack space was used for cannonballs,” Drifting Rain said.

“Report that to the NPC Lieutenant General Orion. He sent a party out to assist you, so make sure to thank him for that and then give him all of these supplies. See if they reward you with anything,” Lu Li instructed.

“Uh, so we’ll be giving them the artillery as well?” Drifting Rain asked, suddenly felt a twinge of pain.

This group had spent a lot of money in acquiring the artillery to just give it all away. Surely Lu Li hadn’t spent enough time with Water Fairy that he thought he was a tycoon now.

Lu Li looked at Drifting Rain’s expression and immediately knew that he was thinking.

“What do you know? It’s not like you get any EXP from killing monsters with the artillery anyway. You can come with me to learn how to last hit these monsters later.”

“Oh yes, show us how to level up,” Drifting Rain said, coming back to his senses.

They had brought more supplies than Lu Li, and they had even brought the artillery. Lieutenant General Orion felt his heart pounding. With all of this, there would be fewer casualties among his troops.

They received a Fortified Expeditionary Talisman for each piece of artillery they gave away.

The initial buff was 5%, which made Lu Li’s item look very weak in comparison. Lu Li resolved to bring in an artillery unit next time.

Drifting Rain has been a leader for a while, and knew what he had to do. He quickly gave Lu Li one of the Fortified Expeditionary Talismans, as he couldn’t let his Boss use a worse talisman to fight these monsters.

With the addition of 800 new recruits, the Burning Legion’s soldiers were being swept. Lu Li even considered going up to fight the Pit Commander.

The Pit Commander wasn’t technically a Wild Boss, as it was part of the Burning Legion’s standard army. It also didn’t have amazing drops, but the items it did drop would definitely be better than the other monsters that it was fighting with.

“Take some people to attack the Pit Commander, but be careful to avoid the Infernal Siegebreakers. We can’t really fight that one right now,” Lu Li commanded.

This would ensure that they would be able to inflict some damage to the Pit Commander. After all, Lu Li’s damage to the level 70 Boss was insignificant, which meant that his success rate of getting the last hit was not high. He had tried several times and had never succeeded.

“Okay, don’t worry Boss,” Drifting Rain assured, then quickly rallied his troops and attacked the Pit Commander.

The Paladins that they brought were of a particular personality. It was easy for them to be taken over by bloodlust which meant that several of them had been killed by overextending. Fortunately, their teammates were usually ready to push the monsters back so that they could be revived.

With this group of players attacking the Pit Commander, accumulating 20% of the total damage would be a difficult tasked, but they still struved for it.

Lieutenant General Orion was very appreciative of the heroic adventurers. Even strong NPCs were injured or killed when facing the Pit Commander. With the help of these adventurers, the time it took to defeat the Pit Commander was shortened and it also reduced casualties.

Lu Li rushed towards the Pit Commander as well. The amount of damage he could put out was relatively high, as he often reached 100% Skill Completion.

Moreover, the arrival of the Paladin Legion provided him with reassurance.

Before, if he pushed out, it would be easy for him to get himself into trouble. After all, the NPC’s healers had a lot of take care of and he wasn’t close friends with them. However, with 800 Paladins with the ability to heal, this was of no concern.

As the leader of this group, Lu Li had at least four healers paying attention to his HP at all times. Whenever his HP dropped to half, it would immediately be replenished.

There was no way that these Paladins would let their Boss die. With the sense of honour that they shared, they would rather die than let that happen.

With Lu Li unhindered, the damage he dealt was quite impressive. Before, he had felt like a useless flea, but now he felt like he could at least stand among the NPCs.

The Paladins soon squeezed in as well, and the Pit Commander was completely surrounded.

There were Paladins constantly dying, but there were even more Paladins rushing in to take their place. During that time, the ones that died were revived too. The advantage of the adventurers was now clearly on full display – they were basically unkillable.

However, this didn’t mean that they wanted to die.

Progressing to level 61 from level 60 required a lot EXP. If you died, you would lose a lot of EXP, and even if you were revived, the loss would at least be 10%.

Even Lu Li had not yet acquired 60% of his EXP bar.
