Lu Li rented a quiet room in Astrana's Inn and began his Alchemy journey with a pile of materials.
Alchemy had two types of failures and critical hits. If the alchemist failed, the materials would become useless, and the player would lose a certain amount of HP. If the alchemist achieved a critical hit, not only would he obtain double the finished product, but he would also gain a certain amount of HP.
System: You have successfully produced 1 Intermediate Health Potion. Alchemy EXP + 1.
System: You have successfully produced 1 Intermediate Health Potion. Alchemy EXP + 1.
… …
The Intermediate Health Potion's cooldown was relatively short, only one minute. After two hours, Lu Li had produced over a hundred bottles. Overall, the probability of a critical hit far exceeded the probability of failure. This was why he had chosen to rent a quiet room instead of finding a random place to start Alchemy.
Lu Li took out 20 of the 100 Intermediate Health Potions and placed them in the Exchange Hall. Each bottle was priced at 1 Gold Coin.
Black Heart!
He was completely scamming people.
At its most expensive, Snake Trust Grass only cost 3 to 4 Gold Coins per stack. In other words, the cost of producing a bottle of Snake Trust Grass for Lu Li was only around 10 Silver Coins per stack. Currently, the Auction Hall only sold Snake Trust Grass for a few Silver Coins per stack.
He didn't even need a single Silver Coin to produce a bottle of Snake Trust Grass, yet he had to sell it for 1 Gold Coin!
That's right, he was scamming people, scamming those rich guilds!
There was no need to worry that no one would buy them. The various large guilds were urgently exploring the Death Mines. They had long since become impatient for the Intermediate Health Potion. They could afford the price of 1 Gold Coin per bottle.
As for why he didn't sell more of them in the Exchange Hall, it was very simple. The rarer something was, the greater its value. Lu Li couldn't let others know that his Intermediate Health Potion could be mass-produced. Even if someone obtained the recipe, he would give it to his own guild first. 【Love ↑ Go △ Little ↓ Say △ Net

Where there was demand, there would be profit.
After producing this batch of potions, Lu Li repaired his equipment, which had become tattered after a whole day of grinding. The repair fee was over 1 Gold Coin. Fortunately, he had learned Intermediate Health Potions, so he could afford the repair fee.
After repairing his equipment, Lu Li went to find a skill trainer.
First, he tried to see if he could trigger a quest. Unfortunately, the Thief Trainer did not give in to Lu Li. He had been rejected many times in a row.
Lu Li could only reluctantly give up and obediently take out his Gold Coins to level up his skills.
Level 14 had 7 Skill Points. Since Shadowstrike was the first skill to be manually upgraded, the system rewarded him with 1 Skill Point. However, in order to open the Steel Treasure Chest, he had no choice but to spend 1 Skill Point on Unlock, so in the end, he only had 7 Skill Points.
Shadowstrike was his most commonly used skill, as well as the most basic Thief skill. Even if he gained more skills in the future, it wouldn't become obsolete.
Backstab also needed to be leveled up. Backstab with high Skill Completion could create an Armor Break effect, which was very useful when fighting bosses. Lu Li steeled his heart and added two points to this skill.
Backhand Backstab was a commonly used ultimate skill, but Lu Li had an even more powerful skill, Slit Throat, so he temporarily gave up on this skill. When he had more Skill Points in the future, he would consider upgrading this skill.
He added 1 point to Slit Throat, so he had to keep the remaining point as a backup. Who knew if he could get more powerful skills in the future, such as Gale Steps, Shadow Cloak, or …
"15 Gold Coins in total," the old Thief said expressionlessly. 【Love ↑ Go △ Little ↓ Say △ Net

Fortunately, he had saved enough money just now. If it was a normal player, even if they had enough Skill Points, they might not have the money to upgrade their skills.
Shadowstrike: Instant Cast, Cooldown Time: 4 seconds. Deals 100 damage to the target, plus 200% weapon damage. Awards 1 Combo Point. Proficiency: 5/5
This was an earth-shattering change. After upgrading a skill, the damage dealt was not as simple as doubling.
Backstab and Slit Throat also had a certain degree of improvement, but compared to Shadowstrike, it was not as obvious. After all, no one was willing to waste so many Skill Points on a single skill.
With everything ready, Lu Li set off for the Fire Scar Temple.
Weilan Haifeng and the others had already cleared out the area. Lu Li could see scattered corpses on the ground along the way.
Occasionally, he would see some patrolling Hellhounds.
Hellhounds were demons that looked like large dogs and were often used as guards. They were the untamed versions of the Warlocks' Hellhound servants.
These descendants of the Hound King Hakkar had weak eyesight, but they could accurately sense the presence of magic around them. They could rely on their perception of magic to move around, which was also how they tracked their prey.
They ignored Lu Li and walked past him. Because Lu Li was a Thief, there were no magic fluctuations on his body. However, Lu Li had no intention of letting them go. He killed every single one he saw. These were all experience points, which were much more than ordinary monsters of the same level.
He arrived at the place where Apocalypse Guard Akereus respawned.
Weilan Haifeng and the others were farming monsters not far away. When they saw that Lu Li had arrived, they killed the monsters in their hands and gathered together.
"Aren't you going to say anything?" Weilan Haifeng asked.
"I've never fought it before. What can I say?" Lu Li distributed the Intermediate Healing Potions and began to apply poison on his dagger.
Good steel should be used on the blade. Now was the time to use good steel.
Akereus was huge. He had hooves on his feet and a pair of scarlet wings on his back. He held a burning green greatsword in his hand and wore a huge chest plate with the Archimonde emblem. His face was ugly and ferocious.
In a way, Akereus was far more eye-catching than the Cynocephali Elder.
Weilan Haifeng tried to get closer to the boss. Akereus slowly opened his eyes. There was nothing but a faint green light in them.
"Let's go!" the main tank shouted. He raised his sword and shield and charged forward.
Lu Li had long since entered Stealth and circled behind the boss. When the aggro was almost fixed on the main tank, he immediately launched a sneak attack.
Immune!
That's right, demons were all immune to Stun damage.
There was no other way. He had no choice but to use his full strength.
System: Shadowstrike Skill Completion 91%, caused 160% Skill Damage, target stunned for 2 seconds.
Still immune to Stun.
However, the damage was very good. The numbers that floated up from Akereus' body stunned the others.
"Why is your damage three times that of mine?!" Huadi Liqing was really shocked this time. His equipment was not much worse than Lu Li's, especially with his Silver-grade weapon. How could his damage be so much lower?
"Apocalypse Guards are immune to 20% Magic Damage," Lu Li explained.
"But it can't be three times. Big brother, my Magic Damage is very high, okay?" With such a big difference, Huadi Liqing felt that his status in his sister's heart had dropped again. He could not take it anymore.
Lu Li had to give an explanation for the foul!
"My Shadowstrike Skill Completion is over 90%, and it caused 160% Skill Damage. I've also maxed out this skill." In front of his teammates, Lu Li had no reason to hide.
If he dealt 160% damage, wouldn't that be equivalent to a critical hit?
"Why did you put all your Skill Points into a rubbish basic skill?" Weilan Haifeng could not help but say.
"There are no rubbish skills in Dawnlight. Everyone has their own best skills. If you use your best skills to the fullest, then you're an expert," Lu Li had to correct their thinking.
In reality, most online games in the past had this kind of rule. Skills in the early stages would eventually be replaced by better and better skills in the later stages.
However, Dawnlight was completely different. A Thief's Shadowstrike would be used constantly, a Mage's Frost Arrow was the main skill of an Ice Mage, and a Priest's Quick Heal was the main healing skill. As for a Hunter, without their Arcane Shot, they would not even know how to fight monsters.
