"Everyone, everyone!"

It was very early in the morning but Hachi Chan was already yelling in the chatroom.

Lu Li, who was out levelling, retorted, "Did your dragon die again?"

The successful little maiden suddenly got angry and shot back, "No, your horse is dead. My dragon is fine; it's even about to fly."

As flying skill books were currently unobtainable, and the System had not enabled flying mounts yet, Hachi Chan's dragon could only run along the ground like an ostrich.

She had tried to help her baby dragon learn to fly, going as far as to climb all the way to the top of a mountain and throw it down. The poor dragon ended up half-dead.

She said that she had searched the internet on how young birds learned to fly and tried to follow that method. As a result, her Elf Dragon lived through days of constant suffering.

This became the most discussed topic in Ruling Sword.

"Hachi it's very early. What is it?" Only March Rain would be so gentle, given her patient personality.

"March Sister, I got an Instance Dungeon Scroll for a quest. Let's go to the Instance Dungeon – it's said that there are many dragons in it. Maybe we can find a way for them to get my baby dragon to fly," Hachi Chan said with enthusiasm.

"Is it the Temple of Hakkar?" Lu Li asked.

"Oh, how did you know?" Hachi Chan was surprised.

"No one else is as ignorant as you. What difficulty is the Instance Dungeon?"

"Elite Difficulty."

"An Elite Instance Dungeon is better than an ordinary one, but this is an Instance Dungeon that starts at level 45. If it was Nightmare Difficulty, we probably wouldn't be able to beat it. Gather, everyone – we're going to beat it. If anyone can't make it just say so," Lu Li announced on the Xin Xin Mercenary Group's channel.

"Get someone else; my sister will be with my today," Lonesome Flower immediately responded.

As long as something wasn't compulsory, he would much rather level with his sister. Recently, March Rain had been part of so many matches and training that she had simply forgotten about her brother.

"I'm not going either," Wandering said lazily.

"I will be training with Cat Dad today; get Kitty to go in my place."

Sakura Memories had responded very well to her training and had become entranced. She quickly tried to find someone else when the possibility of missing out came up.

"No PVP there – I don't really want to do this kind of small Instance Dungeon," Moonlight said.

"Uh, I won't be going either. I'm doing Alchemy work and I'm in a critical phase," Sesame Rice Ball said sheepishly. He had recently received an Exquisite Alchemy formula and had been upgrading his Alchemy for several days in a row.

"Oh, I'm catching more pets. You guys…"

Before Remnant Dream finished speaking, she heard Lu Li yell, "Dreamy, you have the weakest reason, so get over here. Otherwise, I'll take all your pets and eat them."

Nobody wanted to go, since it was just a simple Elite Instance Dungeon. If this lucky girl didn't go, there would be no reward at all.

Remnant Dream was somewhat proud that no one else had to go, but that they couldn't go without her.

"Since you want me to go so badly, I will take on this difficult task."

Since so many members had backed out, there were quite a few positions that needed to be filled. Even if it was only an Elite Instance Dungeon, it was still level 45. The lowest level mobs would be level 45 and the Boss would be level 48.

The core members who were willing to go were the two girls, Azure Sea Breeze and Lu Li. This meant they were missing 6 other players. Lu Li intended to casually find a few people in the guild to join them.

Drafting Rain was an outgoing Paladin and was the head of the Ruling Sword Paladins.

There was also Machine Bro, who was a Healing Priest. Although his technique wasn't as good as Hachi Chan's, he was competent enough for this level of Instance Dungeon. Moreover, Hachi Chan had her Tranquility skill.

The third player was Nuo Yu, Ruling Sword's third ranking Mage.

After this, Lu Li recruited Jaweika, a Shadow Priest who was a friend of Square Root 3 and had come out of the Star Moon Guild. In Star Moon Guild's Instance Dungeon and Wild Boss battles, he was often the person who dealt the most damage.

Mu Fish, an Ice Mage, was just lucky enough to get selected.

The last person was Kitty Likes Meat. She wasn't nearly as keen as Sakura Memories to train and was happy to escape it.

Because Sesame Rice Ball wasn't around, everyone was first transported to the Fortress of the Cursed Land and walked all the way to the Swamp of Sorrows. The Swamp of Sorrows was located on the East coast of Azeroth, bordering on the Redridge Mountains. The Alliance only had a weak control over this part of the map, as the Horde Town Stonard was here.

However, Lu Li and the others didn't need to be too quiet as the Horde players rarely visited this place.

The Swamp of Sorrows wasn't suitable for players who were timid like rats; this foul mud pond was filled with monsters. There was also no place where you could firmly set foot on, as the ground had been inundated by swamp water.

Most of the time, this place was dark, wet and rainy. The trees growing here were huge and the swamp continuously made the air more and more humid. It was like being in a rainforest.

Lu Li took off his wet leather armor and sighed softly.

He was the only Thief here and they had taken this path in order to prevent them from encountering the Lost Ones Boss.

The Broken and the Lost Ones were two types of mutant Draenei. They had lost the noble appearance that the Draenei was born with. Their skin had loosened, their limbs had wasted away and they began to grow tendrils. They had lost the protection of the holy light and their minds were no longer clear. The difference was that the Broken had found Shamanism, enabling them to retain their mind and wisdom, while the Lost Ones had completely degenerated.

The most threatening thing about the Swamp of Sorrows was that these Lost Ones were generally Elites and even Quasi-Boss levels. There were several that were even actual Bosses.

However, regardless of whether they were Elite, Quasi-Boss or a Boss, they all looked the same.

You simply wouldn't know whether you were fighting an Elite monster or a Boss. Because of that, players that tried to farm the Lost Ones often died because they had unknowingly run into a Boss.

Lu Li also had no way of determining whether they were Elite monsters or Bosses. As such, he could only lead the party in a different direction.

The last thing that they saw was a lake with a little building poking out of the surface of the water. This was the Temple of Hakkar, where the Blood God Hakkar had been suppressed.
