"Cough…cough . "
Lu Li cleared his throat then weirdly asked, "Who has a good amount of gold on them? I don't have much money at the moment . "
"No…no money?"
"Why is there a bad feeling that our guild is going to be bankrupt soon?"
"Are you trying to scam us?"
"Criminal!"
"I'll take away your DKP . Dreamy, stop avoiding me . Come out," Lu Li said sternly as he took a quick step and stopped Remnant Dream who was running away .
"Help! Brother Lu Li is going to harass me!" Remnant Dream squealed .
"He's using it to repair equipment . I have some gold here . Use this first," Water Fairy offered .

"How can I take it? You guys are guests; I can't take these . Don't worry, this little brat has a lot of money . "
Lu Li ripped out a bag that contained 5000 Gold coins . This instantly solved the problem of repair .
"Take these back from Three Brother later . Your pets won't starve . I really don't understand why you need so many pets," Lu Li sighed as he slapped the back of her head lightly .
"It's gone! My gold is all gone! I don't have money to buy food now and my pets will die of starvation one by one . I will eventually become a pet-less Hunter . No pets equals no battle power . I'm going to get kicked out, aren't I? No one will take me in . I'll end up homeless with money to eat either…"
The little Hunter looked like she had seen a ghost and collapsed .
"Hmph! Don't slap my head . If you keep it up, I'm going to end up becoming dumb! What do you know?" Remnant Dream continued, expressing her frustration . "All my pets are close to having babies . By then, I will have a whole nursery! There are also chances for rare ones, so I can sell them for lots and lots of gold . "
"But would you be willing to sell?" Lu Li didn't believe that she would make a fortune from this .
Therefore, she would have to be tight on money in the future .
It was fortunate that she was quite capable at earning money . Her current role within the guild made her quite attractive to hire, so many clubs were willing to pay a high price . However, at that time, only Ruling Sword, Drizzle Court, and Peerless City who had this privilege . If she couldn't make money, where would she get her 5000 gold?
Under normal circumstances, they would need to repair after 10 wipes . This was the average for all classes . Each class would eat through their durability at different rates, as their battle style varied . The average cost for repair was 15 gold . This was also including the extra costs of Legendary and Dark Gold items . Normal players would usually only spend 1 gold to repair all their items .

When they fought Ragnaros, he had unexpectedly melted their weapons . Although this didn't damage them, it still made Lu Li cry on the inside .
The original average number of wipes before repairing was 10 rounds, but in reality, it only took 5 wipes for them to required repairs .
Before they entered in the morning, he had brought along thousands of gold . The fight with Executus cost a fortune, and in the end, the gold coins that he brought were all spent before noon . However, with these 5000 gold coins, they wouldn't have to worry about running out of gold for repairs for today .
The majority of teams wouldn't be able to handle the costs from the weapon-melting skill .
The molten lava in this area dealt damage, but it also melted the players' equipment . Only Fire-resistant gear could protect them against this effect . As such, the value of Fire-resistant equipment skyrocketed after the release of Molten Core .
From the beginning, Lu Li had already asked Shen Wansan to collect Fire-resistant gear . Although it was difficult, the Fire-resistant gear that was collected was just enough for Ruling Sword's personal use .
After many squad wipes during the afternoon, Lu Li finally managed to lead them into P2 .
Ragnaros ended up sinking in the molten lava pool .
Everyone was stunned . Was the Boss trying to escape, or was it beckoning for them to chase after him and fight him in the lava?

"No one move . Look around," Lu Li said . Theoretically, the average person would not be able to guess what would happen next, unless they were a reborn player .
Several Scions of Fire emerged from the lava and rushed into the players' formation .
Fortunately, Lu Li was there to remind them, so they only lost four players . However, this was still a considerable number, and inevitably led to another squad wipe .
The ones who could tank the monsters did not all die, so Lu Li immediately designated specific healers for the Main Tanks and forged onwards . He wanted to see the strength of these Scions of Fire . Otherwise, they wouldn't make progress and would keep wiping . Raids often progressed in this manner . The first few attempts were mainly just to understand the Boss' mechanics .
There were eight Scions of Fire, which was a terrifying number .
Azure Sea Breeze took on three of them alone, while the other Main Tanks shared the rest . Lu Li was watching Azure Sea Breeze's health closely . His HP was fluctuating quite rapidly, so the situation was a little dangerous . As such, Lu Li told a Berserker to pull one away from him .
DPS Classes, even if they were equipped with Plate Armor, were unsuitable for pulling monsters . Their Defenses and HP were too low, so they would require more healers .
This was a situation which required constant re-adaptation . Although they wiped again and again, Lu Li understood the Scions' offensive strength and HP . Furthermore, he also understood the repertoire of skills that they had . These Scions' attacks were all purely fire-based and a basic attack dealt around 800 to 1000 damage . They also had a skill that damaged enemies within 10 metres . Furthermore, this skill also burnt mana .
This skill was only activated when the players got closer than 10 metres to the Scion of Fire .
This only proved the importance of Fire-resistant gear . Lu Li even changed one of his Legendary
items to a Dark Gold item that had extremely high Fire-resistant stats . Besides the Fire-resistant stats, this item was useless . The other members followed suit, equipping as much Fire-resistant items as possible .
At the very least, they wanted to push through the Scion of Fire stage . It was fortunate that they were all level 60, so the items that they wore were mostly all level 60 . If they had remained the same level from when they first started the Molten Core, they most likely wouldn't even be able to reach this stage .
They fought the Scions of Fire again and again for the whole afternoon .
It was nearly night when the gods of the System smiled on them and they finally managed to kill all of the Scions . Furthermore, there were still Main Tanks, Healers and DPS players in the remaining team . This meant that they could hold on for a little more .
"This is a battle that you cannot run from!"
After yelling this, Ragnaros summoned balls of lava and fired them at the players in the backline .
There already were not many players left, so how could they get past this?
After continually testing the Boss out, everyone was left mentally drained . Lu Li had to announce the end of the day .
It was good that they could continue tomorrow . Lu Li found that it was acceptable for them to be stuck at this place . He didn't feel that Ruling Sword was that powerful to be able to take the Boss down today .
