"I'll only pick one item. I won't go back on my word," Lu Li said seriously.
"Then you'll have to give me the item first," the runaway slave stammered, his eyes darting around. It was hard to tell if he was planning to kill him or run away after taking the item.
"Except for the weapon," Lu Li threw everything in front of the runaway slave.
The runaway slave picked up a roasted quail and started wolfing it down. He finished the fat roasted quail in a few bites, then ate a few more things before putting on the equipment.
Lu Li's fingers danced with Felstriker. The poison on it glowed blue. It was obvious that the runaway slave was not someone to be trifled with.
The slave, who only had a small knife in his hand, took a long look at the battle axe that was still quite a distance away from him. He then opened his bag and signaled Lu Li to come over and pick what he wanted.
The system notified Lu Li that he could choose one item.
Lu Li found that there were more than 20 items in front of him. Unfortunately, he could only choose one. There were all kinds of strange items. The worthless ones were beautiful shells, the bones of some wild beast, and the valuable ones were recipes and materials.
Grol's talisman was among them. It looked like an old wooden necklace. It was neither gold nor silver, and it was not embedded with any jewels.
Lu Li calmly chose the equipment. After closing the selection interface, he saw the runaway slave standing in front of him with a ferocious battle axe in his hand. If he was any later, he would have been ambushed.
"That's not in the spirit of a deal," Lu Li said calmly.
"Haha, to hell with those goblins' bullshit. Kid, if you hand over all your valuables, I might let you return to the forest in one piece."
"I guess you must have been a pirate or a bandit before you were captured." Lu Li almost laughed out of anger.
In this day and age, there were still people who dared to rob him. Originally, he planned to let this guy go as long as he got the talisman. After all, he was a lucky guy who had just escaped from a wolf's den. He didn't expect that he would want to die.
"No, no, no. You're wrong. I'm not a pirate or a bandit. I've been a pirate and a bandit before. Have you heard of Red Parrot? I was the second mate up there. You're unlucky today. I need to stretch my body and wash away the humiliation of being captured by the Ogres."
"Then don't talk nonsense." Lu Li shook his head. He was looking forward to seeing the man's expression before he died.
The battle ended quickly. No matter how stupid Lu Li was, there was no way he couldn't defeat a Level 55 Enhanced Elite. Moreover, this Enhanced Elite was in a weakened state.
The long period of captivity must have tortured his already weak physical strength.
"Why is this happening? Could it be that the Sea God no longer cares for your child?" In the end, the fugitive did not complete his escape. He did not die under Grol's club. Instead, he died in an accidental encounter.
Lu Li wiped the blood off his dagger and crouched down to loot the corpse without much hope.
This guy had brought his so-called treasures with him on his journey, but it was impossible for everything on him to drop. Moreover, a certain someone was shrouded in an aura of misfortune. Even if he could have dropped something good, it would not have dropped.
Grol's treasures, a treasure chest!
Black Parrot's treasures, a treasure chest!
Two treasure chests had dropped. Lu Li was stunned. This was as strange as killing a random monster on the side of the road and getting a pile of legendary equipment.
Both chests could only be opened by Thief, but this was no problem for Lu Li.
Grol's treasures had yielded two very good rare materials. This allowed Lu Li, who had just spent a lot of money to buy the Azshara Crystal, to recover a bit of his health.
There weren't many items in Black Parrot's treasure. Apart from a nautical diary that could trigger a quest, there was also a scroll that hadn't been appraised yet. This so-called 'unappraised' basically meant that it was encrypted. Only a scroll master or someone with the relevant knowledge would be able to unlock it.
Lu Li suspected that this was an encrypted treasure map. He had no time to search for treasures right now. He could only wait for a chance in the future.
The second talisman was obviously to get Lady Sevine's talisman first. It was said that this talisman had fallen into the hands of a Murloc. This Murloc was not far from the beach. According to the quest clues, he could stand on a ledge overlooking the beach.
Lu Li wandered around for a while and finally found a suitable location.
This ledge was like a small island sticking out of the sea. There were scattered groups of Murlocs on it. They patrolled this barren territory, ready to attack at any time.
As soon as Lu Li arrived, he received a warm welcome. After a flurry of hands and feet, he finally dealt with these foul things that emitted a foul smell.
There were not many monsters on the ledge, and they could be seen at a glance. There were no elites or quasi-bosses like he had imagined. They were all small fries. It seemed that obtaining this talisman depended on luck. If he was lucky, he might be able to get it from killing a monster, but if he was unlucky …
Lu Li shivered. He could not imagine what would happen.
Sap the Murloc Priest. First kill the mages, then go back and deal with the melee. A small group of Murlocs quickly became corpses.
Unfortunately, after looting a few waves of monsters, he did not get what he wanted. Lu Li decided to take back his previous judgment that this talisman was the easiest to get. In front of the system, which cared about probability, he was filled with frustration.
After clearing almost all the monsters on the ledge, Lu Li finally picked up Lady Sevine's talisman.
The last one was to rely on stealing. It mainly tested the player's Stealth ability. If Lu Li claimed to be second in this aspect, no one would dare to stand out and say that they were first. After all, Enhanced Stealth was not something that could be learned easily.
The Mage Tower was very old, as if it had been burned down.
Just as Trebor had said, this Mage Tower was filled with ghosts that had been tortured to death. Obviously, Archmage Allistarj's research was not very honorable.
These ghosts seemed to be level 60. It would be difficult for a normal Thief to enter.
If it were a non-Thiefer player doing this quest, they would need a small party to slowly kill their way in. Not only was it a waste of time and effort, but it was also possible for the whole team to be wiped out.
In addition, Allistarj's servants were also very difficult to deal with. Although it was not a boss, it was a quasi-boss with a group of enhanced elites. If possible, Lu Li did not want to encounter it.
The talisman was in the laboratory at the top of the Mage Tower. Lu Li used his Pick skill to open the lock.
