Chapter 288: Exquisite Quest Scroll
Trantor: Halcyon Trantions Editor: Halcyon Trantions
It was hard to say what a yer could receive from the Mooncake Box.
The box contained all sorts of things and many people stood around here just so they could see what
others were getting. Some people would offer a price if they saw something they were interested in.
Lonesome Flower was a handsome guy with a cold demeanor; there was no way he would act like the
others and rub his hands or pray to the Gods before he opened the boxes.
He opened the first box, which contained a $100 Walmart voucher.
That’s right, items from the real world could also be obtained from these boxes. From Lu Li’s knowledge,
the highest-valued real item that you could receive was a cool Maglev Sedan, which was worth one million
dors.
A $100 voucher was only equivalent to one gold coin, but it was still better than selling the box to those
businessmen for 20 silver coins.
The second item was a Steel grade equip; it was level 5 too. This box wasn’t worth it.
The third item was a Mooncake. Eating the Mooncake would give the yer a +200HP buff whichsted for
20 minutes. The buff would disappear upon death or going offline.
After opening a few more boxes, he finally received a good item.
An essory!
It wasn’t a ne or a badge, but rather an essory outside the normal range of equipment.
Normal bosses didn’t drop these essories; they were limited and only avable in events.
The essory that Lonesome Flower received was a pair of earrings with +5 Constitution. There was
nothing really special about the earrings, other than the fact that they were exceptionally beautiful.
March Rain really liked them.
As long as March Rain liked them, Lonesome Flower was very satisfied.
It didn’t take long for Lonesome Flower to open all of his boxes.
The other items that he received all belonged in the previous categories. They weren’t bad items, but they
weren’t very exquisite either.
Other people went to open their boxes as well. Mooncakes were the mostmon, closely followed by
equipment.
The equips that the Mooncake Box provided were all quite poor in quality; they were either Steel grade or
Silver grade with very average attributes. Those who were unlucky even received Bronze grade gears.
Lu Li queued up behind Remnant Dream. He had 34 boxes, which wasn’t a lotpared to Lonesome
Flower, but was still an amazing sum to the average yers.
Lu Xin stood beside her brother with high expectations as she watched him open his boxes.
"Oh, a Mooncake! Attack+10%, not too bad. Here, take it," Lu Li said as he passed the Mooncake to his
sister.
In the past, during Mid-Autumn Festival, they would both still buy Mooncakes, because Mooncakes
symbolized reunion. When they ate the Mooncakes, it felt like their deceased parents were still with them.
Even though the in-game Mooncakes wasn’t permitted in matches, they were still usable in dungeons, and
could also be used when farming monsters in the wild, or during PVP with other yers.
Lu Li continued to open the boxes.
Mooncakes, Steel grade gears, Mooncakes...
"Mage Tower" Quest Scroll?
Lu Li stared nkly for a few seconds, then was overwhelmed with joy.
If his memories were correct, there would be a certain chance for him to obtain either Polymorph or Ice
Block when hepleted the quest. Both were God-tier skills for the Mage ss.
If he was extremely lucky, he might even have a chance to receive both skills books.
Polymorph could turn a single target into a small animal. This effectsted for 15 seconds and during this
time, the transformed target would be unable to attack or cast spells. However, the transformed target
would rapidly regain their health.
Ice Block was even more impressive; everyone referred to this skill as the "refrigerator". After using this
skill, the Mage would gain an invincible status for 10 seconds.
Of course, after using it, they wouldn’t be able to attack anyone else.
This quest scroll was priceless.
Unfortunately, Lu Li wasn’t a Mage.
This wasn’t the first time that he had questioned his ss choice.
On his first day of ying, he had obtained "Frost Nova", a skill book that even most level 30 Mages would
not be able to obtain. Now, Polymorph and Ice Block were waving at him again.
"Flower, yours," Lu Li said as he passed the quest scroll to Lonesome Flower.
Lonesome Flower took the quest scroll and briefly scanned it. He didn’t think much of it; he had no clue
about the rewards of this quest.
Lu Li didn’t exin it either – he wasn’t interested in showing off. Once Lonesome Flower received the
reward, he would thank him anyway. Besides, Dawn’s quests had always been very strange – putting in
more effort didn’t mean that you would receive something better. Sometimes, going with the flow was the
best option.
After this scroll, there was nothing else from the box that was worth mentioning.
Collectively, the Xin Xin Mercenary Group had opened a couple of hundred Mooncake Boxes, but no one
had managed to obtain a mount.
ording to the forums, the best item that could be obtained from these boxes was a level 20 Silver grade
mold. Perhaps there were better items, for example, the "Mage Tower" Quest Scroll that Lu Li had given to
Lonesome Flower. However, no one knew of its value yet.
As for the essories, it was hard to determine their value. Some would consider the essories to be
extremely valuable, while othersined about their barely existent attributes.
Before he went offline, Lu Li sent a message to Shen Wansan and asked him to help him purchase simr
scrolls.
Whether they were quest scrolls or dungeon scrolls, he wanted all of them.
Many people were clueless about the value of these items, but Lu Li had an extra three years of game
experience.
Mid-Autumn Festival arrived on the next day.
A festive atmosphere could be felt everywhere in the game. Lots of ces hung up different decorations to
celebrate and yers could even set the environment of the cities to night-mode.
Hence, a bright moon hung in the sky and the city was lit bynterns. Even by reality’s standards, this was a
beautiful and rare sight.
"Everyone, good luck. The top hundred are going to be decided today. Don’t get eliminated."
Lu Li didn’t admire the beauty of the scene for too long. He was calm and only thought about performing
well in thepetition.
"Rx. We’re still nning to see you in the finals."
Azure Sea Breeze seemed to be confident about his team.
"I’d hope so..." Lu Li didn’t want to discourage him.
Even with luck on their side, Azure Sea Breeze might not even be able to make it into the round of sixteen.
Wandering’s team had an even smaller chance, since they had already lost a match before. If they lost
another match before they entered the top hundred, they would be eliminated.
After sending a request to the system, Lu Li and the others waited for a few minutes before they were
teleported inside.
The fruit of victory was right before their eyes. If they lost at this point, they would definitely regret it, so all
those who were participating in the matches today made sure they were at their very best.
Lu Li’s team had only just seen who they were up against when they were rushed by the opposing team.
It was another team that consisted entirely of damage dealers.
Moonlight used Whirlwind right in front of March Rain and a Thief was forced out from Stealth.
This wasn’t just a lucky guess, but rather, an urate judgement made by a PVP master. He assessed the
movement speed and positioning of the opponent and casted the skill before they couldy their hands on
the healer.
The Thief was caught by surprise and instantly used his Swiftness effect.
He thought he could make it out of Whirlwind’s cast range with the burst of his movement speed, but he
had no clue that Lu Li was already waiting for him.
Lu Li opened with a sudden strike and forced the Thief to stay where he was.
The Thief endured the entire Whirlwind. Even for a leather-armored ss, Whirlwind wasn’t a skill that
could easily be tanked.
The Thief never got his chance; he died even before he could do anything.
The other team was left with a Pdin and a Warlock.
They had wanted to save the Thief too, but he was stuck inside the Whirlwind. There was nothing that they
could do.
The opposing team had lost their main damage output right from the start; there was no doubt about who
was going to win the match.
However, they still fought as hard as they could, until the Pdin was finally struck down and sent out by
the system.
Lu Li’s trio was the first to win a match today; it didn’t take long before they were teleported out too.
