Chapter 1397

These little Dryads in the forest had given themselves a cute name – the Laughing Sisters .
These fascinating Dryads were the daughters of the demigod Cenarius . They were a mischievous bunch that lived in the depths of the quiet forest in harmony with the other creatures of the forest . Although Dryads hated unnecessary violence, they were willing to fight if forced to do so . If that happened, they would defend Kalimdor would their lives .
However, their carefree lives were finally ended with the deforesters .
Warsong Soldiers began to slaughter the forest Elves that prevented them from cutting down the trees . If they weren't supported by the Night Elf Druids and the Keepers of the Grove, these Dryads might have lost their homes .
"I have seen a Dryad called Shael'dryn . She is one of the most beautiful creatures of the world," Lu Li said in admiration .
"Shael'dryn is now responsible for guarding the Moon Wells, and is unable to deal to deal with the invaders . My friend, I hope you can help them . The Laughing Sisters will help you fight off the enemy," Remulos said .
"In the name of the forest, these deforesters will be judged!" Lu Li declared sincerely .
Helping the Laughing Sisters repel the Warsong soldiers was actually a free quest because the Warsong Soldiers were very low-levelled . When Lu Li was levelling in the Grey Valley, these Warsong Soldiers were an invincible enemy .

They were generally around level 35, with a few Elites that were around level 40 to 50 .
Now that Lu Li was already at level 60, these Warsong Soldiers that used to kill him, would now be slaughtered by him . By the time he cleared them all out, he had killed 100 Warsong Soldiers .
Even so, one shouldn't think that these Warsong Soldiers were weak . If Lu Li continued pushing into the Broken Wood Outpost, he would be asking for death . The soldiers of the Broken Wood Outpost could transform into a form that was ten levels higher than the player at any time .
A ten level difference didn't make them invincible, but it wasn't something that Lu Li could fight alone .
"Thank you, Elf," a Dryad came over and thanked Lu Li .
Lu Li looked at her name – Bethel . She seemed to be the leader of the forest Dryads . They had been limited by the System, so the Dryad leader wasn't a high level either . Otherwise, if she was a Boss, the Laughing Sisters wouldn't have been defeated by the Warsong Soldiers .
"Greetings, I am an Elf from the Stronghold, and I was instructed by Lord Remulos to support this place," Lu Li introduced himself .
"Remulos? Oh, that's great . "

As soon as she heard the name Remulos, Bethel let her guard down . The Dryads and the Keepers of the Grove were children of Cenarius, so they were obviously on the same side . Since Lu Li had been sent by her brother, there was no need for any hostility .
"He was very worried about you," Lu Li said seriously .
There was no need to convey how close Lu Li was to Remulos . His actions were sufficient . Since Remulos had expressed concern before Lu Li, he decided to share that sentiment of his own accord .
"You say that you are from a Stronghold . Is there such a place in the forest?" the Dryad asked curiously .
"Not before – it only appeared recently . It was built with the help of Lord Remulos," Lu Li explained seriously . "The evil foresters had to be punished, we had to decisively fight them off . "
"Really?" Bethel's eyes widened in wonder .
In her experience, the adventurers were generally not very enthusiastic about Grey Valley's dispute over the deforesters . There were only some adventurers that were willing to lend a helping hand to the Dryad sisters .

She didn't expect Lu Li to do something like this .
"I will send my people to protect the forest, and do my best to protect the Dryad sisters," Lu Li promised . Although he had killed all the Warsong Soldiers here, there would soon be new ones arriving . Lu Li intended to send Thieves here to be on duty . There would be a group of two that would come and each group only needed to work for an hour .
"Thank you for your generosity . The Dryad sisters would be willing to form a permanent covenant with you," Bethel said happily .
The System prompted Lu Li to accept the friendship of the 'Laughing Sisters' . This allowed him to summon five Dryad sisters to fight as allies every week . Each death reduced a certain amount of goodwill, which meant that the number that arrived next time would be less .
Lu Li was very satisfied with this result .
Some people thought that these Dryads were weak . After all, they weren't able to beat the level 30-40 Warsong Soldiers and relied on the Night Elf Druids and Keepers of the Grove to survive .
However, there was something that most people didn't think of .
When Lu Li had come here to help the Dryads, he was at level 60 . He was still level 60 after killing the Warsong Soldiers . His level didn't change to become the same as his allies or enemies .
If an NPC participated in a player's fight as a mercenary, their level would not be their original level . If the Dryads appeared within the Stronghold fight, they would become the same level as the players . The Keepers of the Grove were similar, which was why Lu Li wanted to get their help .
Of course, once he started to cut down trees to build the Stronghold, he wouldn't be able to enlist them anymore .
The purpose of getting their help was to overprotect the Stronghold . He was confident in the defense of the Stronghold . He had 80 defenders against 80 attackers, but he also had defensive structures on the wall . In addition, there were several Keepers of the Grove and Dryads . If anyone attacked them, they would return empty-handed .
The extra help was going to make Ruling Sword a lot of money .
The Stronghold's walls had now been upgraded . They were a lot more solid than the original walls . This was the result of Ruling Sword's 100,000 members working endlessly for a few days . Their two allies, Drizzle Court and Peerless City, also contributed a lot of the rocks required .
The 80 players to participate in this battle had been selected . PVP players and strong ranged damage output players like Lonesome Flower and Sesame Rice Ball were chosen . Those ranged players didn't need to do anything other than stand on the wall and cast their skills .
In the early Stronghold battles, the Hunters were very effective, so Lu Li selected ten to participate .
At 8 o'clock on Monday morning, Ruling Sword's Grey Valley Stronghold entered the auction time . City Warfare Administrators across all the major cites were flocked by organisations big and small .
Although only eight organisations could qualify, they didn't lose any money for placing a bid, so there was no reason not to try . Perhaps there wouldn't be enough people applying and you would receive the opportunity . Perhaps Ruling Sword wouldn't defend properly, and suddenly, the Stronghold would be yours .
Those who were lucky never lacked anything . People needed to dream, just in case their dreams came true .
