Chapter 889: 889
The two top Thieves continued to attack the Boss in a precise rhythm . Even if there was an occasional lapse in crowd-control, both Lu Li and Water Fairy had damage reduction skills and ways to regain HP .

However, this quest wasn't as simple as it appeared .
"Please wait," Caliph Scorpidsting suddenly pleaded as he threw down his weapon and stopped resisting .
What now? The two of them had never faced a situation like this before and didn't know what to do .
There was no shortage of highly intelligent NPCs in this game . Some of them were intelligent all the time, like Keeper of the Grove Remulos and Garona, while others only gained intelligence during specific circumstances required for the plot .
"I have decided to surrender . I am willing to be your servant . Please spare me," Caliph Scorpidsting begged .
"Servant?"
Water Fairy looked at this seemingly insignificant make and wondered how he could be used . If she could take him to fight for her in the next Instance Dungeon that would be very useful . He was a quasi-Boss, which meant he had great Attack and Defense . His few skills weren't that much weaker than a regular player's either .
"Give us all your equipment and we'll believe you," Lu Li said .
"Of course . Why didn't I think of that?" Water Fairy laughed . If Scorpidsting really gave up all his equipment, this would be very profitable .

Caliph Scorpidsting bowed his head and seemed to hesitate for a moment before saying, "You must guarantee my safety . You can't do anything to me . Maybe you should make a pledge . "
"Dammit, he's just spouting nonsense . Let's kill him quickly," Lu Li snorted, pretending to be angry as he raised his dagger .
Poor Caliph Scorpidsting had already abandoned his weapon – how could he face Lu Li now? The little bit of HP he had left started to dwindle even further .
"Wait, wait, I'll do it! Is that not enough?" Caliph Scorpidstring asked helplessly when he watched Lu Li raise his dagger again . He knew how ruthless this guy was; he was completely destroying him a moment ago .
"Lu Li…" Water Fairy didn't speak directly, but sent a message through the party chat .
"Don't worry, I'm counting the damage,' Lu Li responded quickly . He knew what she was worried about it . This was no ordinary monster; they had taken a quest from the Ravenholdt Manor and they couldn't afford to not complete it .
"You can take both of these daggers . I'll leave them on the ground for you, alright?" Caliph Scorpidsting asked with a pained look .
He likely didn't have the best equipment – it probably wasn't even Gold grade . At best, he would drop Silver equipment, which was now useless for players like Lu Li and Water Fairy .
However, there were also many blueprints that could drop from these quasi-Bosses, and there was also a small chance of them dropping rare materials .

"I don't have…" Caliph Scorpidsting hadn't finished speaking before Lu Li flashed behind him and once again put his HP in a critical state .
Water Fairy was shocked as she watched . She had to admit that Lu Li was indeed a ruthless person . He was happy to kill someone even though they had already surrendered .
"Stop! I'll give you everything else," Caliph Scorpidsting whimpered . He sounded really scared this time .
"I will count to three . If we don't see the things we want, we will take them ourselves . "
Lu Li stopped, but he didn't move his dagger away from Caliph Scorpidsting's neck . He was ready to finish the job .
"Here!" Caliph Scorpidsting cried out as he dropped a formula indignantly .
Lu Li grabbed it and glanced down; it was a valuable Enchanting formula .
Although Lu Li himself didn't know how to Enchant, most of his equipment had been Enchanted . There were several Enchanting specialists in the guild . He just needed to give them equipment and they would use various materials to add Attribute bonuses to it .
Lu Li had previously received a blueprint to Enchant demonic weapons .

The effect of the Enchantment gave the weapon the ability to curse a target, causing continuous Shadow damage and reducing their Defense by 10% .
The Enchantment he had in his hand was called the Demonslaying, which would give a melee weapon the chance to stun a Demon and deal additional damage .
Although Demonslaying was not necessarily as powerful as a Demon weapon, it was a very worthwhile Enchantment . Moreover, the flaming effect that it gave was similar to that of Wandering's Teebu's Flaming Longsword . The appearance was quite impressive and highly sought after .
"There are two of us . How can you expect us to let you go with one item?" Lu Li asked as he put the formula into his backpack and continued blackmailing him .
Water Fairy thought that what Lu Li was doing a bit disgraceful; there seemed to be no end to him extorting this monster . Her eyes had been opened today .
"You bastard elf, die!"
Suddenly, there was a loud bang, as though some bombs had been detonated . In addition to the damage, those in range of the explosion were also stunned . Water Fairy and Lu Li were both affected, which allowed Caliph Scorpidsting to jump eight yards away .
At the same time, a group of monsters swarmed in from outside the tent .
There were Wasteland Rogues, Wasteland Assassins and Wasteland Mages, all protecting Caliph Scorpidsting who was in the middle of the group .
Caliph Scorpidsting said angrily, "Damn elf, did you really think I was going to surrender? Stop dreaming – I was just stalling for time . "
Lu Li and Water Fairy looked at him dumbly . Neither of them knew that he was stalling, and it wouldn't have mattered anyway . Even if he really did surrender, Lu Li would have made an excuse to kill him to ensure that the quest was completed .
"Kill them all!" Caliph Scorpidsting shouted as he waved for his minions to attack .
Lu Li activated the special effect of his shoes and instantly appeared behind the Boss' defenses . He cast a series of skills which stacked up his combo points, then gave up on dealing more damage and instead turned into a giant wolf .
Lu Li had used a skill that he normally tried to hold back on . Caliph Scorpidsting, who had already been hurt from before, couldn't withstand it .
The monsters heard the final screams of their boss, before turning their heads to find an adventurer cutting at his head with a dagger . He then put the items that were dropped into his backpack and left the dead man behind on the floor .
