Chapter 1276: 1276
In trying to discover the second poison, Lu Li continued using the Dragon Claw Grass but chose a higher level herb for its complement . Unfortunately, the process failed in the last moment .

Trial and error didn’t seem to be particularly reliable . It seemed that the best way to learn about poisons was to read the books that Garona had given him, rather than to blindly try his luck . His first success could now be clearly attributed to sheer chance .
With a pile of books, Lu Li left the castle .
He was going to find a team of Mages to farm for him before finding a place to sit down and read . This wasn’t unusual in Dawn; there were some people who would scan documents to read in-game .
For example, an accountant could write his report and a network administrator could have his notes next to him . Even Sorrowless could handle his guild’s affairs while letting a group of Mages farm for him .
Because of this, there were many professional players that specialized in doing this .
There were a few star players that did this, but many would just train, farm and sell equipment .
However, Lu Li had to see Water Fairy first . It had cost her quite a bit of time and effort for this last quest . Although any Thief could have done what she did, he really would end up a bachelor for life if he kept on thinking like that .
Lu Li thought that Garona would summon Water Fairy, but she didn’t .
However, Garona still gave Water Fairy a reward through Lu Li . The first was the ‘Dawn of All Beings’ Pocket Watch and the book that strengthened the Gouge skill .

Enhanced Gouge was quite a valuable reward . They had just completed a quest that took one day, and they didn’t have to die hundreds of times . Gouge was a very important skill in a Thief’s repertoire, so it would have been worthwhile to receive this Skill Book regardless .
Presumably, Water Fairy would be very satisfied .
The more troublesome thing was the Dawn of All Beings Pocket Watch, as Lu Li was more hesitant to give it to Water Fairy .
He might have had a lower EQ, which was likely brought on by the environment that he was raised in, but he wasn’t an idiot . He knew exactly what people would think if both of them wore an accessory like this .
Previously, when they said that they were dating, he could explain that they were just in a cooperative relationship . However, after wearing this pair of pocket watches, that explanation wouldn’t cut it anymore .
The common thing was to say that this pocket watch would make doing quests together in future more convenient…
In general, boys that were chasing a girl would use this excuse . If the girl refused, that would
mean that she knew about this strategy, but if she accepted, then the boy would have succeeded . Regardless of whether this girl had feelings for him, there would be a great opportunity .
Although he didn’t mind getting involved, Lu Li wasn’t a particularly sensitive person .

He contacted Water Fairy directly and met at the Hyacinth Tavern in Stormwind city . This location had been recommended by Square Root 3 as it was very quiet and suitable for talking when they didn’t want to be disturbed .
Most of the players’ taverns had their own style, otherwise, it was impossible to compete with the System’s taverns .
When Lu Li walked in, he found that the environment of the tavern was very warm and welcoming – it felt more like a café . However, Lu Li wasn’t sure as he had never stepped into a café in his life .
In terms of colour, there was more white and orange, which were Lu Xin’s favourite colours .
If Lu Li was alone, he might have turned around and left, but Water Fairy was a girl, so she might enjoy it .
“How many?”
The hosts were obviously not NPCs; you could tell that they were players right away .
“Two,” Lu Li answered as he touched the mask the hid his face . In addition to this cloak, it was impossible for anyone to recognize him .
“Please come with me,” the waiter said as he smiled politely . He didn’t ask Lu Li to remove the mask or his weapons . Although most people liked wearing casual clothing when they were here, there was actually a smaller selection of casual clothes and only the rich could afford them .

Equipment that hid one’s identity was usually worn by celebrities or a woman that was in hiding .
In order to keep it professional, the waiter didn’t pry into the identity of the guests and took Lu Li to a small booth .
It looked like a small enclosed booth, but it was not completely sealed . The designer had cleverly separated this small area into a private location so it wouldn’t be easy for someone from the outside to intrude on these guests .
There was a transparent fish tank on the table with two, small, lightly-colored fish inside . It was amazing that when the two fish met, their mouths would lock into place . They were like lovers kissing and would not separate for a long time .
Lu Li felt like he had been tricked again .
This was definitely not just some ‘quiet place suitable for talking about things’ . Square Root 3 had definitely tricked him .
Unfortunately, he had already sent out the information and Lu Li heard the voice of the waiter outside . He was obviously leading Water Fairy here, so it was too late to leave .
Moreover, it was just two fish . This wasn’t obviously a tavern for couples, so Lu Li tried to calm down .
Water Fairy had also completely covered herself, but she wasn’t covered in equipment . Instead, she had a long light blue dress which showed off her charming figure, along with a small white veil on her face which had a flower on it . She looked quite lovely .
When the waiter saw these two players who had hidden their identities, he immediately started thinking about who they could be .
He couldn’t see anything on Lu Li’s body, because Lu Li appeared quite calm . Although he couldn’t see his person, the equipment that was on his body didn’t seem ordinary . The waiter had once received a special item from a quest that allowed him to see some insignificant information about a player that was within 10 levels of him . However, he was told that Lu Li had exceeded this limit .
He was currently level 48, which meant that Lu Li was a master at level 59 .
At present, the highest level reached on the rankings was level 59 . Although there were already hundreds of players who had reached level 59, there were tens of millions of people in the Huaxia District . Being in the top 100 was definitely a significant achievement .
He was a super master!
When he looked at Water Fairy again, more information about her was clear .
This kind of fashion was something that only a master NPC Tailor could produce in Stormwind City . Moreover, this NPC only sold a limited stock each week, so there were many copies of those items in the game .
Water Fairy’s temperament seemed quite refined, and even the Waiter couldn’t seem to take his eyes off her .
