After searching through the two boxes, Solomon picked out a dozen bottles of potions and said, "Although these aren't the most precious, they're undoubtedly the most suitable for you. Elf, I think I've fulfilled my promise."
Damn you!
Of course, they weren't the most precious. This guy was probably picking the cheapest ones.
However, what could Lu Li do? Even if he knew this, he could only blame it on the System. There was no way the System would allow Lu Li and the others to get their hands on these overpowered potions.
"That looks like a recipe. Since I can't give you too many potions, it shouldn't be a problem to take a few recipes, right?" Lu Li observed Solomon's expression and felt that there probably wouldn't be much of a breakthrough in the field of potions. His eyes swept over the two open boxes and keenly discovered some recipes and materials.
"These are all going to be given to the military …" Solomon was in a difficult position.
"Sir!" Lu Li said in a serious tone, "For your sake, I've gathered 500 brothers to help. They risked being chased by the Lich and didn't even have time to drink this morning …"
The 500 players put down the drinks in their hands and continued to listen to Shameless Lu and the NPC haggle.
"But I really can't give you too many potions. I'll take a look at the recipes first," Solomon said as he wiped the sweat off his forehead. Dammit, he wasn't even this tired when fighting the Demilich.
Also, he felt bad about it. He only asked for 200 people, but Lu Li doubled it all of a sudden. If he really only brought 200 people, it wouldn't have been as clean as it was now. At the very least, the Demilich's ability to summon Undead monsters within a certain range was already very troublesome.
"Materials are fine too," Lu Li said as he looked at the other box. There weren't any recipes in it, but he saw materials.
Materials that needed to be escorted by the Demilich obviously couldn't be ordinary materials. Now that Ruling Sword had grown, the shortage of rare materials was getting bigger and bigger, so Lu Li didn't mind getting more rare materials.
"As for the materials, I'll need to bring them back for research as well …" Solomon said weakly, but in the end, he still gritted his teeth and gave Lu Li a potion recipe, as well as about four or five rare materials. There were more than one of these, so giving some to Lu Li wouldn't affect his research.
Fourteen bottles of potions, one formula, and five materials.
This was the reward for this mission, and it was definitely worth it. It could be said that this was one of the most valuable missions that Lu Li had ever done.
However, the price they had to pay was no small matter. After all, ordinary missions did not require five 100-man teams to be dispatched.
"Dreamy, have you picked up the equipment? If you have, then let's go." After Lu Li picked up the equipment, he immediately arranged for people to retreat. Regardless of whether a big boss like Kel 'Thuzad would mobilize because of the death of a Demilich, staying in the depths of the Plaguelands was not safe.
"I won't be joining you. No matter what happens, you must protect the chest," Solomon said.
He was a typical noble. Although he was not evil, it was impossible to expect him to share life and death with everyone.
Five hundred people was too big of a target, and it was impossible for them to escape from the Plaguelands in one piece. From Solomon's point of view, if Lu Li was ruthless enough, the best outcome would be for the five hundred people to split into a dozen groups. This way, they would be able to preserve as much of their strength as possible.
This poor guy didn't know that players had Hearthstones. As long as they could use it in the current environment, the Hearthstone would take at most ten seconds to return to its base.
"Then let's work together again in the future." Lu Li also let out a sigh of relief.
He and Solomon only had an ordinary business relationship, and he did not want to receive a mission like escorting Solomon to a safe area.
In fact, Solomon would not make such a request either.
No matter what, he was a scout who was good at hiding his tracks. Rather than letting others escort him, it would be more convenient for him to run away himself.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Lu Li instantly disappeared from the Plaguelands with five 100-man teams.
Kel 'Thuzad would not personally act for a Demilich, but he still sent a team of Death Knights to the scene. But at this time, the battlefield was a complete mess. All the players had disappeared, and all the clues pointed to Solomon, who was still fleeing in the Plaguelands.
So, this chase was completely different from what Solomon had expected.
He had to use all the methods he had learned in school, and he paid a huge price to escape back to the camp.
Lu Li also disbanded the team. These five hundred people did not need him to give out rewards. The guild had its own rules, and they would not mistreat these people. This trip only took about an hour, and the casualties were negligible. Repairing their equipment naturally did not cost much, and the potions were provided by the guild.
Canmeng handed over all the items they had obtained today to Lu Li.
There were more than a hundred gold coins, which was not bad at all. It was comparable to a big boss in a dungeon.
Then there were two pieces of Gold equipment, one piece of Dark Gold equipment, and one piece of Legendary equipment. It was a grade lower than the First Clear of a Nightmare dungeon. The bosses in Blackwing's Nest often gave three pieces of Legendary equipment to Lu Li.
However, when he thought about the fact that Anglish was only a quasi-boss, Lu Li understood.
There was no need to pay attention to the Gold equipment, and the Dark Gold equipment could be thrown into the guild storage. The Legendary equipment was surprisingly good.
It was a very beautiful staff.
Its name was Anglish's Flame of Rage, and it came with a rather interesting special effect. It could store an attack skill in the staff. Within two hours, the player who equipped the staff could instantly cast the attack spell. After two hours, the stored skill would disappear.
Lu Li felt that this special effect alone greatly increased the value of this equipment.
Unfortunately, there were probably no Mages in the exploration team who would be interested in this weapon.
It seemed that the people in the guild would benefit from it again. In the eyes of the exploration team, it was only a good equipment, but in the eyes of ordinary players, it was a godly equipment.
None of this moved Lu Li. What really moved Lu Li was the rare material that dropped.
The Heart of the Lich!
A Demilich actually dropped a Heart of the Lich.
This item only had a certain probability of dropping from a proper Lich. When Lu Li and the others fought in the Psychic Academy, they did not even see it when they killed Ras Frostwhisper.
There was a sentence in the item's description that perhaps explained Lu Li's confusion — Heart of the Lich: A heart formed from anger, unwillingness, destruction, and madness.
It was not easy to become a Demilich, but in the end, it died in the hands of a group of ambushers. Anglish was indeed angry and unwilling. He sacrificed his own student for eternal life. It was indeed crazy enough. In addition, this was the first time he was killed by someone, and dropping a Heart of the Lich was not a waste of his life.
In fact, he was a unique NPC. Once he died, he would not respawn again.
Lu Li still had things to do. He still had to deliver the chest to Solomon. However, this was not urgent. Solomon was probably still being chased. It would not be too late to wait until the storm died down.
