Chapter 1518: 1518
Lu Li regretted not bringing more Thieves from the guild .

However, this was just a thought of his because the System would never allowing Ruling Sword to have too many Thieves join this mysterious faction .
If there were too many Thieves, then the rewards probably wouldn’t be as good since the quest wasn’t difficult .
They cleaned up the farm and Emma left by herself .
Before she left, she asked Lu Li about her little brother at the Undercity .
Could human Thieves Stealth into the Undercity?
Lu Li wasn’t sure, but he didn’t want Emma to venture off by herself since NPCs only had one life, unlike the players .
Lu Li completed the quest on the quest log tab .
The quest rewarded a decent amount of Reputation, and he was now close to upgrading to the next tier of the Stormwind title .
Lu Li was curious what would happen if he was promoted to Stormwind General .
However, that would take him a while at this pace . Fortunately, there were quests handed out by the military that awarded a large amount of Reputation to help speed up the process . The only caveat was that these quests were generally much more difficult .
If it wasn’t for Emma, it would’ve taken them a long time just to clear the farm .

Not long after, a team of scouts stopped by .
Lu Li saw the Alliance Scout team and saw Major Solomon .
Solomon looked quite young, with brown hair and a handsome face . His face was covered in tree sap and paint in order to help him blend into the environment . A lot of NPC soldiers did this, but Lu Li wasn’t sure how effective it was .
“You guys cleared this area?” Solomon questioned Lu Li .
“We were doing a quest and this NPC helped us out,” Lu Li answered truthfully .
Lu Li sounded quite sincere, so Solomon lowered his guard . Upon hearing that it was a survivor of the Felstone family, he knew that Lu Li was telling the truth .
Everyone on this earth had reasons to work with the Scourge . However, the Felstones were definitely an exception to this rule .
“My troops will rest here for the night . Please provide food and water for us . ”
Solomon was quite straightforward and blunt guy, even though his role was stealthy and cunning .
“Are we headed to Stratholme?” Lu Li asked .
For players, Stratholme was just another dungeon . However, in the storyline, it had still been taken over by the Scourge .

“I don’t know . That’s something only the people in power would know . We just do what we’re told to do,” the Scout Leader said authoritatively .
“I understand . ”
Lu Li knew that he couldn’t get much information out of him .
However, from his memory, the war was stopped midway because they had to deal with a new enemy – the Old God C’Thun in Ahn’Qiraj . All this war did was stop the plague from spreading too fast .
All Lu Li wanted was to benefit out of this war somehow . He had many opportunities to do this as he was in direct contact with these generals at the front line .
“I don’t understand you people . Being an adventurer is much more fun and relaxing . Why join the army?” Solomon laughed .
Lu Li didn’t understand the meaning behind what Solomon said . He did not sound passionate at all, rather, he sounded overly realistic and almost jealous of the life of an adventurer .
Perhaps he was a royal commander that has very little experience in war .
“Yeah, being an adventurer, I feel as free as a bird . But . . I can’t just sit here and watch my home get taken over by the plague, you know?” Lu Li replied .
“We’ll definitely defeat the damn Scourge,” Solomon said as he rubbed his nose .
“Thank you, officer . Me and my friends will do whatever it takes to help the Alliance,” Lu Li responded in a serious tone .

“Then do you have any interesting stories?” Solomon asked curiously .
“Oh, I have a few stories that I still can’t believe myself,” Lu Li said casually . “I’ve met Medivh and learnt a few things from him…”
He instantly transformed into a crow .
Solomon was scared and instinctively pulled out his dagger in defense . His movement seemed quite well polished, so he had probably earned his position .
“Don’t misunderstand . It’s just me,” Lu Li said, returning to his original form . He didn’t mind showing off these tricks in front of this NPC .
This skill cannot be stolen from others and it was taught by Medivh . However, the God Ring was different . He would never let the NPCs know about this item because their world was complicated and corrupted .
“That . . that’s amazing . ”
“I probably just got lucky and Medivh felt generous that day,” Lu Li said humbly . “The most epic thing that happened recently was the hunt for Onyxia . Many of us died in the process, but eventually, we took her down . ”
“You mean . . ?!” Solomon grabbed Lu Li’s shoulder .
“It was just a clone . These dragons have ways to revive themselves,” Lu Li sighed in disappointment .
‘You guys are amazing . ”
Solomon was easily impressed by Lu Li’s stories . In fact, if it wasn’t for his duty for the Alliance, he would have begged Lu Li to take him under his wing right then and there .
“This time, we’re going to defeat the Scourge,” Lu Li said confidently .
“Is this all you guys have?” Solomon asked, but then realized the question might have been rude . However, he recalled Lu Li saying that they needed a lot of people to defeat Onyxia .
“There are many, many more people all under my command,” Lu Li said .
“Are they strong?” Solomon asked .
“They’re all about as strong as us . We emphasize the importance of teamwork and chemistry more though . ”
Lu Li knew that teamwork and chemistry was more important than anything else when it came to this game .
“You have a lot of people that are strong…Aren’t you guys afraid of dying?” Solomon accidentally blurted out the wrong thing again .
He was very ambitious and was very straightforward with Lu Li .
