Chapter 1078: All Celebrity Players

Translator: Halcyon Translations  Editor: Halcyon Translations

They would have to cooperate with each other later after this war, so both factions made sure to hold back.

There was a total of 15 players for this all-celebrity dungeon run and included the top players from both factions. They were to display their techniques in the Blackrock Depths dungeon.

There were currently four large dungeons in the Blackrock Mountain area – the Blackrock Depths, Blackrock Spire, Molten Core and Blackwing Lair.

Of course, the gaming company wouldn’t be sending the celebrity team to complete all of these dungeons. They didn’t have the time and it would be a long and tedious task. They had to keep the game fun after all, so there was no way the company would allow the dungeons to be completed so quickly.

After the celebrity players completed the run, everyone would have an idea of how it should be done.

They needed to complete a chain of quests in order to obtain the keys to enter the Blackrock Depths. The quest was complicated, but it wasn’t difficult. Lu Li was the commander, so he didn’t have to do this himself.

The dungeon was located in the Eastern part of the kingdom, in the depths of Blackrock Mountain.

The history of the Blackrock Mountain could be traced all the way back to the War of the Three Hammers, which involved the Bronzebeard, Warhammer and Dark Iron Dwarves.

The Bronzebeard Dwarves ultimately won the war, but the Dark Iron Dwarves weren’t willing to accept the defeat. They build the Thaurissan city in the Redridge mountains in an attempt to make their comeback.

However, the Bronzebeard Dwarves weren’t interested in giving their enemies a chance. After they joined forces with the Wildhammer, they completed destroyed the Dark Iron Dwarves again. In this fight, they killed their Queen Modgud. In despair, King Thaurissan made a mistake that anyone could have made – he summoned Ragnaros from the lava depths.

As the ancient creature made its entrance, the Redridge Mountains also began to change in appearance. The mountains shook and flames blanketed the land as howling and wailing sounded in the air.

Anything that rebelled would be turned into ashes and those who obeyed became slaves for eternity.

A raging volcano rose from the ground and formed the Blackrock Mountains.

Although Thaurissan was killed by what he had released, his kind had been enslaved by Ragnaros. Even till this day, they were still being kept in the Blackrock Depths while Ragnaros restd in the Molten Core at the deepest part.

What Lu Li and the others were exploring this time was the capital city that the Dark Iron Dwarves had once built – Thaurissan City.

The Blackrock Depths were a super-sized dungeon that had cost the gaming company countless an enormous amount of effort to design. There were plenty of paths to take in the dungeon and these paths did not all lead to each other. As far as Lu Li knew, there were still sections in his old life that had remained unexplored.

It was most likely for the purpose of advertising the game, but all the competitors this time represented all the common classes of Dawn.

There were two players for the Thieves – Water Fairy and Lu Li.

Needless to say, Lu Li was the most popular player in the game. Without him, the celebrity team would probably be a joke.

Water Fairy was chosen for her beauty, which she was famous for, while also being an extremely skilled player. Ever since she became famous, there was always a spot available for her in the celebrity teams.

The team had the most spots for Warrior classes – a total of three, which included Sea Breaker and Elevenless. Sea Breaker wasn’t any more famous than Moonlight and Gaze, but he had the most damage reduction, Defense and taunt skills. He had also added quite a lot of his attribute points to Constitution and all he needed was a set of exquisite defense gear.

The team couldn’t be chosen just by fame alone – they needed to be realistic in approaching the dungeon. It would be ridiculous to expect Moonlight and Gaze to tank a boss.

The last Warrior was Azure Sea Breeze, who despite not being a celebrity player, was still chosen.

Sea Breaker alone wasn’t enough – he probably couldn’t even tank the Heroic mode, so they had to ask Azure Sea Breeze instead. He wasn’t any worse than a celebrity players – he was the number one Main Tank after all.

Besides March Rain, Wendelian was also chosen for the Priest class.

Along with Stellar Union Silver Radian, she was known as the strongest support competitor in the game.

Wendelian had served Glory Capital and was the reserved healer for Sorrowless. She rose to the top by his side, but eventually swapped guilds to Gale Legion. She was experienced in gaming, but she was quite young too.

Apparently, what she had been best at was directing, but Sorrowless was already a renowned commander, so her specialty had been overshadowed.

Besides Sorrowless, Unforgettable Maple was selected for the Mage positions.

Mages and Warriors probably took up the greatest numbers amongst the competitors, but no matter how they ordered the players, they couldn’t move out Unforgettable Maple and Sorrowless.

The Warlock representatives were Hornet’s Nest and Phantom Gaze.

Hornet’s Nest was already quite famous, but Phantom Gaze was another story. His nickname was the ‘retired craze’.

He had played games for a good decade, and had retired plenty of times, but each time, he would return again because he couldn’t stand missing out. Each time he returned, he had always managed to make it back to the top.

The Shaman representative was Jade Flower, while Old Man Power was chosen as the Druid. Green Flag Wine represented the Paladins and the Hunter class was represented by Hot Twitch.

Lu Li, Water Fairy, Sorrowless, Unforgettable Maple, Azure Sea Breeze, Elevenless, Sea Breaker, March Rain, Wendelian, Hornet’s Nest, Phantom Gaze, Jade Flower, Old Man Power, Green Flag Wine and Hot Twitch – there was a total of 15 players.

The Main Tank was Azure Sea Breeze, who would be backed up Sea Breaker, while the main healers were March Rain, Wendelian and Jade Flower. Everyone else was just a damage dealer.

Most major guilds only had one spot, but Ruling Sword had three.

This was because March Rain and Azure Sea Breeze were the best players within their classes. They were a guarantee to ensure that the team could push through the dungeon.

Celebrity players weren’t always the best choice to complete dungeons. If it wasn’t for the existence of Azure Sea Breeze, Lu Li didn’t think the team would stand a chance against Blackrock Depths.

In fact, from the situation right now, he felt very pressured for his task of directing this dungeon run.
