The Great Thief
chapter-1126

Cold Chill was a player at the top of Dawn's Alchemy circle. She was very famous when Lu Li had entered the game in his previous life. Over the next two years, Lu Li witnessed the myriad of miracles she would perform.

Lu Li had once read a transcript of an interview with her.

This Alchemy master, who would later become unmatched by the countless major guilds, was a rookie who didn't understand anything when she first entered the game. Her first experience with the game was so bad, that she almost gave up on playing.

Fortunately, when the game introduced the mentoring system, she found a teacher.

In fact, this teacher wasn't a particularly strong player. He was just an ordinary player

who couldn't bear to watch these new players struggle. He took on three apprentices and taught them to learn about strategies on the forums. He didn't know that he was directly contributing to the creation of Dawn's greatest Alchemist.

One of Cold Chill's masterpieces was the Resurrection Potion.

While Lu Li was playing in his previous life, this potion wasn't too expensive. Even though Cold Chill's Potion was not expensive, many players would beg to get their hands on a single bottle.

The function of the Resurrection Potion was simple – it was to Revive.

In the morning, you could drink a bottle of the potion and if you died on that day, you could resurrect in the city without any equipment or EXP loss.

Some of the places that the players explored were quite remote, and it wasn't always possible to find a healer. However, if you drank a bottle of the Resurrection Potion, all this would be solved.

Cold Chill would later join her teacher's guild. Most of her potions would be supplied to her guildmembers and not many of them would make it onto the market.

In addition, there were some other exquisite potions that made this Night Elf rookie the most popular player in the game. After talking about her experiences in the interview, many players were beating themselves up. They all wished they had picked up this rookie for themselves.

Lu Li was reminded a few days ago when the System was being updated and wanted to intercept this rookie. However, he didn't think that he would be so invested in the Forging that he would completely forget about it.

Although it was a bit late to catch up, Lu Li decided not to give up. Cold Chill was too important for Ruling Sword. Although Sesame Rice Ball had a high Alchemy level, he was just an ordinary Alchemist. Lu Li had never heard of another Alchemist like her before.

When Dawn's Trade Skills were released, everyone just what the System told them to do. Whoever could complete the formulas would eventually have a high-level Trade Skill and become stronger.

However, once you had acquired the rank of Master, a number of homemade recipes became available. It was said that Cold Chill had been born into a family of Chinese medicine practitioners. As such, after she became a Master, she went on to become one of Dawn's most famous alchemists.

This place was filled with magic and was always at a comfortable temperature, no matter what the season. Time was locked in an eternal dawn here. This was the perfect environment for Night Elves. The Dark Ravine's trees were still as purple as the sky.

On the ground, there was a carpet of green grass with flowers scattered everywhere. There were wild boars and black panthers coming and going. It was quite a harmonious scene.

In the distance, the purple mist tinted the hills and the jungle.

It had been a long time since Lu Li had set food in the Novice Village, and it felt quite intimate. There were even some newcomers who ran to him, asking for some copper coins to repair their equipment.

"If you don't have money to repair your equipment, you can fight the bear monster and sell the fur to the tailor shop…"

"The bearskin is so hard to harvest, and it takes so long too. If you don't do it well, the tailor won't even take it. We might as well find some herbs to sell."

"If you don't want to harvest bearskins, you can also sell the bear monster's manure to the blacksmith," Lu Li said.

"Pfsht, why won't you just give us some copper? Why are you even here?"

When they heard what Lu Li suggested, they were unhappy. They thought that Lu Li looked quite glamorous, and didn't expect him to put up any resistance when asking for some copper.

Of course, this exchange still left the idea in their minds. They didn't know that the manure could be sold to the blacksmith.

In fact, a blacksmith accepted these items because they could be used to increase the purity of a flame. Lu Li didn't mine providing some strategies for these novices, because he didn't want to be stuck here handing out copper coins to newbies.

Believe it or not, Lu Li was too lazy to manage these newbies. He summoned the Headless Paladin's Steed and rode out of the safe area.

"Woah, what is that? An Undead Warhorse! That's so cool."

The novices were stunned. Some of them had read about this on the forums, but nothing like it had ever turned up at the Novice Village. The mount was much bigger than they had expected.

"No, I know someone who is playing as Undead and he took a picture of the Skeleton Horses. They don't look as good as this one," someone immediately corrected him.

"I know, it's the Headless Paladin's Steed!"

The player wasn't completely clueless. Some people really liked cars and in the same way, some players were obsessed with the various mounts. The Headless Paladin's Steed had a very low drop rate, but almost all of them were owned by celebrities.

"Wasn't that the Halloween mount? Who was that person?"

After Lu Li left the village and rode along the area where the monsters were, he dismounted and transformed into a Crow. He was now rushing towards Moon Shadow Lake at an even faster speed.

In an interview with Cold Chill, she described her first experience of the game.

She had entered the game to make some money to improve her life. Her family wasn't poor, but in order to pay for the maintenance of their Chinese medicine practice, they had to live frugally.

However, after entering the game, she realized that she couldn't become rich overnight.

This was especially because the monsters she fought rarely dropped any items and it was quite a burden to manage her potions and repairs. However, she also couldn't bring herself to ask for money from the local tycoons like many other players.

In those few days, she would sit on the shore of Moon Shadow Lake and stare at its blue waters, questioning her decision.

This was the same Moon Shadow Lake where Lu Li earned his first bucket of Gold. He had found Frost Nova in the Treasure Chest in the lake, which made his progression much easier.

No one was here?

Lu Li was a little disappointed; there was no one here by the quiet lakeside. There were not many monsters here, so it wasn't a suitable place for players to level up.

The newbie who was staring at the lake, having lost hope in her gaming life – had she already been taken away by her teacher?
