Chapter 1875: Level 70

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

All jokes aside, no one was stupid. Even if they were stupid, everyone knew that Ruling Sword shares were a valuable thing.

This was because they had rejected external capital financing. Moreover, everyone had witnessed Ruling Sword’s progress over the past two years so there was no doubt about its future. If it continued forward the same way, then they would definitely be able to steadily pass the top three super clubs in the Northern Chinese district.

Even if Lu Li had a stroke, there was still Square Root 3. Even if both Lu Li and Square Root 3 had a stroke, there was still Wandering.

Not to mention, there was still the guidance of Cat Dad on the side. These people created a stable high-level leadership. The young clubs were still in the middle of climbing up the ladder. They didn’t have any old club traditions or messy interests.

Cat Dad and Kitty Likes Meat also gained the purchase power of share-holding. The father-daughter pair could finally become one of the owners of the club in the right and proper manner.

This type of shareholding with incentives could tightly tie everyone together. Other clubs didn’t have any way to calculate how much Ruling Sword was worth in the future, even if they wanted to lure people away from them.

“We must get to level 70 after three days. If you can’t get there, then those of you on the First Clear team won’t be able to make it in,” Lu Li added at the end of the meeting.

“So as long as we get to 70, we can enter into the First Clear team?” Big Dog Li asked in anticipation.

“Being a substitute is also okay,” Crippled Black Ant added behind him. He and Big Dog Li were one of the earliest members to join. They used to be mercenaries and were not used to the club’s restrictions in the beginning, but were quickly won over by the different types of conveniences that the club offered.

The Instance Dungeons they couldn’t go to were open to them. The previously expensive materials could now be purchased with accumulated points.

Furthermore, they had joined the so-called high-level leadership.

“Never mind substitutes; there isn’t much opportunity. We are preparing for the second First Clearing team. You guys can join there,” Lu Li said.

The club was indeed in the middle of preparing the second team. Sky Moon was the team leader, the Main Tank was World’s Best Friend, the Secondary-Tank was Deep Watersong, and the Main Healer was Star Baby. The others were the cream of the crop from all the professions in the three-guild alliance.

The second team was also powerful in strength. There was only a slight difference between the two groups.

Crippled Black Ant, being a Berserker and Big Dog Li, being a Mage, would face stiff competition for their positions.

“Okay, the second team it is. In the future, we will be under the care of Brother Sky Moon.” Crippled Black Ant was not at all disappointed. The second team was no less inferior to the first.

The first teams of other clubs weren’t necessarily going to be better than this second team.

In fact, the players were all from the three-guild alliance. These three super clubs’ two teams were equivalent to a main team of a single club.

Sky Moon smiled bitterly. It was like a dream for him.

Within a day’s time, he had not only received the incentive shareholding, but had also somehow become the second team’s leader. He was going to lead a large number of experts and high-level players to First Clears.

He didn’t dare think about it before joining into Ruling Sword. He wasn’t a professional competitor, so this incentive shareholding was only temporary. He still owed the club a large sum of money.

It would be much better after being team leader. The leader had subsidies and the salary was much higher than ordinary elite members.

As for why Lu Li had regarded Crippled Black Ant and Big Dog Li as important wasn’t because of how much potential they had in the future. They were indeed experts, but there was also room for improvement.

Why they were highly regarded was mainly because it sent a certain message to mercenary soldiers.

Ruling Sword was the most ideal home for mercenary experts. They didn’t have a strong expectation for talent, while other clubs were deep-rooted in tradition. Other clubs lacked celebrity-level players the most, while Ruling Sword did not lack celebrity players at all. Lu Li being reborn had helped them quickly gather a group of top-level competitors.

However, apart from the 10-20 experts they currently had, there weren’t many other players that were available. This was why Lu Li had created the alliance in the first place. It wasn’t just because of his connection with Water Fairy.

Other than these main members, there was also White Bread in charge of logistics, and a few major players from the Life Alliance. For example, there was Cold Chill, who was responsible for brewing all sorts of precious medicines, and also Infinite Starry Sky, who created Fel Reavers.

Infinite Starry Sky’s value was not only in Fel Reavers. His engineering accomplishments were beyond the reach of others, and he would play a big role in the future.

Lu Li would rather give shares to his own people than receive financing. It wasn’t that he was opposed to receiving a large sum of money to start rapid development, but rather, he assessed the value of his own business being so high that any sale would be a loss.

No matter if it was Glory Capital or Blood Red War Flag, they were all doing this during this development period. Only short-sighted people would choose to finance during the development phase.

In the future, if financing was needed in order to survive, he would look for Water Fairy. After all, they were really in the same family.

The three days passed very quickly. The people that Lu Li needed had all reached level 70 without exception.

The first one to reach level 70 was Sakura Memories. She was the first to reach level 60, and now first to reach level 70. The one behind her was I No Understand and was a levelling maniac of Glory Capital.

The reward for being first to level 70 wasn’t a Stronghold; it was a level 70 Epic equip and a Magic Rooster Mount.

The Magic Rooster Mount was a land mount, but was very rare to find. At the very least, Lu Li didn’t even know where to get one. Unfortunately, it was bound to the owner. Otherwise, people who were uninterested in mounts would sell it for a large sum of money.

The level 70 Epic equip was a pair of exquisite fist weapons. They also couldn’t be exchanged. The attributes were amazing, and they allowed Sakura Memories to easily defeat Fat Monkey in a one-on-one battle.

The level 70 equipment obtained by defeating the Wild Bosses finally came into use.

Compared to those super clubs who had money, Ruling Sword had stockpiled less level 70 items.

As, they started to attempt the level 70 Instance Dungeon. It was not only for the First Clear, but also for the arena. Only by quickly obtaining a pile of level 70 equipment and arming everyone could they maintain their competitiveness.

This was the first level 70 Instance Dungeon – Karazhan!

They travelled back to the old road, to the channel connecting the quiet Twilight Forest with the reed-covered Swamp of Sorrows. The gloomy and desolate Deadwind Pass had in fact been explored long ago, but there was now a barrier that only level 70 players could enter through.
