Chapter 793: Stalemate


    Trantor: Halcyon Trantions Editor: Halcyon Trantions


    Compared with other Berserker equipment, the Archaedas Berserker Set had a very obvious w – it couldn’t regenerate HP.


    In addition this, it also reduced healing from other yers and stifled the yer’s own basic HP regeneration.


    It was not ident that this w existed. Dawn couldn’t have such an overpowered set of equipment, even if it was very difficult to collect.


    Any top piece of equipment still had trade-offs.


    For example, the potential of Lu Li’s Supreme Ring seemed to be limitless, but even if Lu Li learned Druid Skills in the Leopard form, would the damage output be higher than his Thief damage output?


    Moreover, the extremely difficult upgrading process was also problematic. The original owner, Azure Sea Breeze, was proof of this fact. If this problem couldn’t be resolved, not only would it be a bad piece of equipment, but it might even ruin a yer who was at the top of the game.


    Taking advantage of the fact that the Archaedas Berserker Set couldn’t regenerate HP was Lu Li’s only opportunity.


    In the following moments, Lu Li’s performance perfectly embodied what it meant for a Thief to be like a ghost. He weaved in and out of the shadows, and every time he appeared behind Elevenless he would cast a rotation of skills, then escape.


    In the beginning, Elevenless wasn’t concerned; he thought that Lu Li was already done for.


    He had 7,000 HP, which was greater than most other Berserkers and every time Lu Li attacked him, he would only lose 200HP at the very most. He thought that this was definitely just ast-ditch attempt.


    However, there was one time when Lu Li attacked him and he lost 600-700 HP.


    As time passed, he soon realized that things would not be as simple as they seemed.


    Pure White Season had been watching for a while and was looking for a question to ask.


    "It looks difficult for Lu Li to win way this, right?"


    The game on stage looked ridiculous, but some of the Thieves could make out what was happening. Everyone else turned to Water Fairy for an exnation.


    There had been no sounding from thementators for quite a long time.


    After a few minutes of saying everything that needed to be said, the threementators were also calmly watching the game.


    "In fact, winning this match is not the most important thing," Water Fairy began. She also didn’t feel like Lu Li had much hope of winning against someone with such high Defense. After a sigh, she continued, "I think he is ying for those after him to win. The more HP he takes now, the more likely the person after him will win."


    If Lu Li could hear Water Fairy, he would sneer at her.


    Winning the match wasn’t the most important thing?


    That was wrong; he had never given up hope of winning. Instead, he felt that Elevenless was less challenging to fight like this. After all, Lu Li had solo-killed multiple Bosses in the past.


    If you hadn’t experienced soloing a Boss, you would never know what it felt like to spend a few hours just repeating the same actions.


    There was no way that Elevenless was stronger than a Boss.


    Perhaps during the first few times he was at risk of being caught by Elevenless, but as time went by, he eventually learned all of his attack patterns. He paid careful attention to his movement speed, his reaction time and the skills that he wouldmonly cast.


    After learning this information, his attacks on Elevenless became even stronger.


    Elevenless’ forehead was soon dripping in sweat. This was not because of his full body armor; the internal temperature was adjusted so that it would be the same as the outside world. As he stood in the stadium ncing around at his surroundings carefully, he began to feel distressed.


    He was like a fish in a puddle, watching as the water around him disappeared.


    Every time he cast Trample, he would find that no one had been hit by it. It had been a long time since he hadst damaged Lu Li. He had such exquisite equipment, but no chance of hitting this slippery Thief.


    However, Lu Li’s situation wasn’t that optimistic either. He had dealt one third of Elevenless’ HP, but had spent ten minutes doing so.


    Lu Li himself had about the same amount of HP, but because he was rarely caught by Elevenless, the gap between them was growingrger.


    The problem wasthat he was getting tired.


    Ten minutes didn’t seem like a long time; most yers spent hours ying the game without getting tired. After all, virtual reality would ce the yers in a light sleep. However, Lu Li was still exhausted and Elevenless wasn’t a bad yer.


    Although he looked impatient while Lu Li was attacking him from all sides, Lu Li knew better than anyone else that this guy was waiting for an opportunity to fight back.


    Thementators were no longer just talking about how Lu Li would lose and the yers in the crowd were also bing excited.


    Many of them were analyzing Lu Li’s actions, thinking that this very specific tactic was a good general strategy. They tried to take it on for themselves, thinking that one day they would be like Lu Li, running circles around someone like Sorrowless.


    However, only a small portion of yers understood and admired Lu Li’s tenacity.


    This kind of tenacity had nothing to do with his technique. There was no training method to learn this – it was simply a character trait. Regardless of whether it was an inherent ability or a trained skill, not everyone had this.


    "I probably couldn’t do this. If I had run into Elevenless, I probably wouldn’t him down to half HP," Water Fairy frankly admitted her weakness.


    She was a very cheerful girl and was very much liked by other yers.


    At this time, Elevenless’ HP had been reduced to 20%, while Lu Li still had half of his HP. An almost impossible miracle had been performed before everyone’s eyes.


    Those who thought that Lu Li was going to lose badly had to face their superficial understanding.


    "Lu Li, you old man. You really are evil!" Elevenless shouted breathlessly as his tired eyes tried to find Lu Li. Although he hadn’t moved, he had still spent the same amount of energy because he had never given up trying to catch Lu Li.


    As Water Fairy put it, it didn’t matter whether this game was a victory or a loss. This was just one round and not a match-winning game. If you couldn’t win, it was best to try and create a better situation for the following yer.


    Towards the end of the fight, both yers were clearly fatigued, but things were clearly more serious for Lu Li. His attacks were less precise and he spent more time walking around beyond Elevenless’ attack range. There were several opportunities that he failed to capitalize on.
