Chapter 1691: 1691
With the remaining few dozen spirits, Lu Li was successful another three times .
He was successful five times with 80 spirits . This rate was much better than he imagined . He thought it must have been because he had the casting spirit badge which increased the rate, and the casting hammer must have had some impact too .
Casting the spirits had a higher rate of success than collecting them . This was probably the reason Demitirian chose him too .
It was just that Demitrian didn’t know what bad things Lu Li had been up to, otherwise, he definitely would have preferred to give himself the badge .
Lu Li concluded that his success in casting this time was a very useful thing . However, it wasn’t as amazing as he had imagined . Even though the spirit casting was successful, it didn’t mean that it would consistently produce Flawless Epic equipment .
He was successful five times, but only three items were Flawless . One was a flawless Dark Gold and two were Epic .
Of the remaining two, one was an exquisite Epic and one was a fine Epic .
This time, he had made four Flawless level items in total . The extra item was Big Dog Li’s single-handed magic sword . Since it wasn’t spirit-cast, it meant Lu Li was able to produce Flawless things by relying on his exquisite hammer .
On the second day, Lu Li didn’t continue to collect spirits . Resting for half a day was already a luxury . Everyone still had to keep up the fight against the Twin Emperors .
Lu Li had given the club members weapons with great fanfare . People in other clubs obviously knew .
From this, they knew how far Ruling Sword had progressed in the Instance Dungeon . It meant that they could at least take that afternoon off, which meant that Ruling Sword’s battle against the Twin Emperors actually wasn’t going all that swimmingly .

This knowledge meant that all the other major clubs were all of a sudden filled with confidence and ambition .
Without realizing it, Ruling Sword had already become the club to beat for the Instance Dungeon’s First Clear . If they weren’t able to make much progress, then other clubs would feel that their own sluggish progress could be forgiven .
Their ambition wasn’t from themselves either .
Perhaps Ruling Sword wasn’t good at fighting this kind of Boss . If this was really the case, then everyone would have their chance . They couldn’t just allow Ruling Sword to take all the Instance Dungeon First Clears . If they did, then how would this game be fair at all?
Lu Li evidently didn’t plan on letting these guys experience so-called fairness .
The fairest thing about Dawn was that the developers wouldn’t intentionally interfere with the game, as long as players didn’t break the rules . Even if the game went bankrupt, the game company could do nothing but reflect on themselves .
Actually, Ruling Sword never really stopped their advance in the Instance Dungeon .
Azure Sea Breeze and Wandering began to lead a new team aiming at First Clear . Because they had the successful experience from Lu Li and his team, the two other teams were also able to reach the Twin Emperors .
Lu Li’s team was the main force, made up mostly of Ruling Sword member .
The other two groups had chosen a lot of core elites from Drizzle Court and Peerless City . They were even in a phasing-in period . If nothing out of the ordinary happened, these two teams were going to become regular teams .

One time, the old problem of the healers not getting over quickly enough cropped up again . Another time, the bugs weren’t killed and they exploded .
To deal with the first situation, Lu Li thought outside the box . The healers didn’t have to run over at all . When the Main Tanks switched places, the healers could change their own healing targets .
If the healers were running to change their position, it depended on if the commanders gave their commands on time, as well as how quickly the players reacted .
The set healing positions could be changed at their will . This way, the healers would be less effective, but they would be even more ordered, and there wouldn’t be a situation where they couldn’t find their target and just run around blindly .
Besides, it would tire Lu Li out having to deal with all this . He needed to focus on the whole battlefield .
However, the outcome wasn’t negative at all, in fact, it was much better than what Lu Li imagined . He understood something from all this – don’t just blindly follow the walkthrough .
To get to where he was today, all those various walkthroughs were a major help .
Lu Li wouldn’t be unconventional and purposely say that he would want to have a fair fight with other players . If he had some prior knowledge, he would use it . And if he won, he wouldn’t necessarily feel that he had cheated . However, he gradually realized that he was a bit too trusting of all these guides .
A lot of times, his subconscious was telling him that the walkthrough must be right .
However, was the walkthrough really always right?

At the very least, Lu Li thought that some walkthroughs weren’t that accurate . Sometimes it was because the game gradually went through official changes so that eventually the mechanisms of the Bosses changed . Other times, it was because the players who participated in the battle were different and didn’t have the need to follow something instructions to each letter . .
If the Boss had been weakened, for normal players, there’d be no problem following the walkthrough . The thing was that now, the Boss was at its strongest, so the walkthrough had no way of helping them with this healer problem .
Also, with Lu Li, there were quite a few healers who were professional competitors . The rest had experienced multiple Instance Dungeon First Clears and were the cream of the crop . They were much more experienced in the game than ordinary players, so it was perfectly fine to let them make their own calls about switching positions .
Of course, solving this problem didn’t mean that Ruling Sword was able to finish off the Twin Emperors .
The reason why this Boss was hard to defeat was because there were too many changes . The Bosses switched positions, exploded the insects randomly, and changed aggro unpredictably as well . If a problem came up regarding any of these elements, it could waste all their efforts .
The new day began with a team death and ended with a team death too .
If you focused only on the failure, then Lu Li and the team didn’t accomplish anything . It was a good thing that First-Clearing an Instance Dungeon wasn’t like this . They were taking baby steps towards victory . Lu Li was sure that the second day would be enough to finish off these two guys .
With another day, it appeared that Lu Li’s estimation was not incorrect .
Around noon, they successfully defeated the Twin Emperors . It took almost two-cooldown’s-worth of time to defeat these two Bosses . If Lu Li hadn’t changed to a new way of thinking, it would probably take at least another cooldown .
One cooldown was seven days, which was far too long .
No one was really sure of what things were like with the other clubs . It was just the expressions of the faces of those going for the First Clear that gave Lu Li some comforting news .
It wasn’t that all the players were professional actors, but that ordinary people would find it hard to put on a troubled expression when they felt overjoyed . Conversely, when they were so unhappy they were about to go crazy, even if they wanted to feign happiness, they wouldn’t be able to do so .
Those who had been tortured by the Twin Emperors for a week were all dazed, and were ready to have a breakdown at any time .
However, Ruling Sword’s all had broad, free smiles on their faces . Shortly after, people from other clubs knew that Ruling Sword had finished off the Twin Emperors .
There was a whole heap of Strengthening Stones which immediately increased the number of Stones in Lu Li’s backpack to triple digits . At this, he put on a brave face and brought himself to Hachi Chan’s side . “Hachi, my backpack’s gonna be full soon . It’s not gonna be able to carry much more . ”
“Oh,” Hachi Chan said, not even blinking an eye .
“Oh? That’s it?”
“Do you have things to give me? My backpack is heaps big . It can fit a lot of things,” Hachi Chan said seriously, so seriously that it almost made Lu Li cry .
