It wasn't that no one had tried to fight this boss.

On that day, Lu Li had a bounty on him and was chased by a group of players. Apart from the Imperial Secret Service players, there were also many other players who had received a bounty. The composition of these players was quite complicated; it was no secret that there was a Boss at the bottom of the whirlpool.

A few Druid players transformed into seals and dived down. Those who couldn't withstand it were thrown into the cave.

However, they couldn't open the stone door no matter what they tried. In the end, they could only give up.

So, Illidan's Shadow became Lu Li's exclusive boss for a short period of time. Unless someone received the corresponding quest, they could directly teleport in with the help of an NPC.

After changing his weapon, Lu Li only spent three and a half hours to kill the boss. This time, he used more than 40 Intermediate Health Potions. Intermediate Health Potions were now 30 silver coins per bottle. In addition to a few bundles of high attack arrows, Lu Li had spent 10 to 20 gold coins.

In fact, even if he was losing money, Lu Li would still persist in fighting this boss.

After killing this boss, his experience bar rose to 45% of level 16. If he killed it again tomorrow and casually leveled up, he would be able to reach level 17. When that time came, he could consider accepting a class advancement quest.

Other than experience, Lu Li wouldn't lose money on equipment, materials, and skill books.

The Shadow Cloak skill book dropped again.

He had already learned this skill book, but he could definitely sell it for money. Moreover, the price would be much higher than an exquisite Steel equipment.

Just this skill book alone was enough for Lu Li to not lose money here.

This time, the boss dropped a Plate Armor Shoulder. It was for damage dealers. Although the equipment was also Steel and had special effects, compared to the Shadow Cloak from last time, it was far inferior.

Lu Li directly sent a picture to Moonlight, asking him if he wanted it or not.

Moonlight wasn't picky. He straightforwardly said that he wanted this equipment. He also quoted a price — 5 gold coins.

Steel special effects cost 5 gold coins. This price wasn't considered expensive, but it wasn't cheap either.

In addition to equipment and skill books, Illidan's Shadow also dropped a material, Shadow Essence, which could be used to create weapons for the Warlock profession. Lu Li couldn't use it, and he couldn't sell it for a good price either. He could only store it in the warehouse and wait for its value to rise.

After defeating the Boss and returning to the city, Lu Li did not go to level up.

He was currently at the top of the leaderboards, which meant that he was at least half a level higher than the other players. There was no need to rise too quickly. Moreover, Dawnlight's level didn't decide everything. There were other important things that couldn't be ignored.

For example, life skills.

Dawnlight's Life Skills were complicated. Even in his previous life, Lu Li couldn't figure them all out.

However, he had a clear plan for himself.

There were four main Gatherer Classes — Herb Gathering, Mining, Skinning, and Lumbering. There were also a few other sub-classes that were categorized by the system into these four main classes.

He planned to learn herbalism and mining.

Gathering herbs was for alchemy services. As for mining, as someone who had been reborn, it would be a pity if he didn't explore many top-grade mines.

Moreover, in terms of profit, mining was also the most cost-effective in terms of time and output.

Generally speaking. Most players learned mining and then chose one of the other three classes, skinning or herbalism. Lumbering was more obscure, so there were fewer people who chose it. Most of the players were specially arranged by the guild to learn it.

Lu Li actually wanted to learn skinning. Other than obtaining a large amount of fur, he could also decompose various ingredients.

However, Dawnlight stipulated that players could only learn two Gatherer Skills at most, so he could only give up on skinning.

Skinning didn't require much skill. As long as there were beast-type monsters, anyone could skin them. Anyone could skin it, and the skin and meat could be bought at the Exchange Hall.

There were many types of non-Gatherer Skills or Production Skills. Jewellery, Engineering, Enchanting, Forging, Tailoring, Alchemy, Brewing, Farming, Cooking, Fishing, Construction …

Even in Lu Li's previous life, three years after the game was released, players still hadn't finished exploring all the Life Skills.

The system didn't limit the number of Life Skills that could be learned, but when you went to the Life Skills section of the town, you could only learn two. If you had more than two Production Skills. The NPCs wouldn't care about you.

This restriction was useless to Lu Li.

He knew a lot of ways to learn Production Skills. He could find NPCs in the wild, do hidden quests, or exchange reputation points. In short, he knew how to learn most of the Life Skills.

However, a person's energy was limited, and he didn't plan to be a Life Skill player for the rest of his life.

He struggled for a long time and decided to learn Engineering, Alchemy, Fishing, and Cooking first.

Fishing and Cooking could only be learned when he had the chance. He had already learned Alchemy, and it was already past the Intermediate level. He believed that in a few days, he would become an Advanced Apothecary.

Engineering was a Life Skill that he could learn from the NPCs in Rattan City. It took up one of the slots he could learn from the NPCs in the city, and it cost him ten times the amount of gold.

He had an exquisite bomb blueprint that required Intermediate Engineering to make. If he wanted to use it, he would have to level up his Engineering.

With the bombs, leveling up would be much easier. This was the so-called 'sharpening the knife does not delay the work of cutting firewood'.

Currently, Engineering could be used to make three things: Wrenches, Bolts, and Inferior Gunpowder.

There weren't any techniques or strategies. All he had to do was collect the materials and make them. It would be best if he could make some of each, because the items he made could be used as raw materials in the future.

Wrenches and bolts consumed Copper Ingots, while Inferior Gunpowder consumed Inferior Stones, which were refined products.

Lu Li emptied the 18-compartment bag that Sanyue Yu made for him and bought a bunch of raw materials from the Exchange Hall. He then ran to the Engineering Laboratory and rented a small room, where he began to make Inferior Gunpowder.

Fortunately, this was only a game, so he didn't have to learn how to make gunpowder.

Even so, his Life Skill experience bar was as slow as a turtle's crawl. The key was that he had to concentrate during the entire process. He couldn't even find someone to chat with.

This was a job that tested his patience, but it wasn't a problem for Lu Li.

System: You have successfully made a portion of Inferior Gunpowder. Life Skill experience increased.

System: Failed.

If he succeeded, he would put away the Inferior Gunpowder. If he failed, he would have to start again. If he made three to five, he would gain some experience. Lu Li used Inferior Gunpowder to raise his Skill Points to 30, but he didn't gain much experience. Even if he made a lot of them, he wouldn't gain any experience.

At this time, Lu Li began to make Wrenches.

Wrenches were a necessary tool for Engineering, and they were very difficult to make.

System: You have successfully made a portion of Inferior Gunpowder.

Throw!

System: You have successfully made a portion of Inferior Gunpowder.

Throw!

He made five or six in a row, and they were all abnormal wrenches. At the very least, they couldn't be used as tools.

Wrenches were related to the success rate of Engineering. The better the wrench, the higher the chance of success. Everyone wanted a perfect wrench.

Lu Li was no exception. After failing so many times, he was no longer anxious.
