Lu Li didn't know that someone was targeting them. Genhao San didn't even tell him that someone wanted to take over Ruling Sword.
Neither of them were eager for quick success. They had already discussed that they would develop independently and wouldn't accept any commercial investment. As such, they didn't care whether the investor was strong or not.
The overbearing CEO also didn't know that his precious daughter had once again joined forces with Lu Li.
Because Lu Li had "generously" shared the Trial Tower, Water Fairy had also given him an advanced quest. In fact, it wasn't really a quest. Water Fairy's Thief mentor's hometown was threatened and he couldn't get away, so he asked his disciple to take care of it.
Water Fairy's mentor was a Night Elf Thief who was a close attendant to the King of Stormwind City. Her Enhanced Backstab was taught by this mentor.
When Lu Li heard Water Fairy say this, he remembered that one of the important sources of Enhanced skills was a mentor.
This mentor was different from ordinary Skill Trainers. Skill Trainers were public NPCs that could be contacted by anyone. They could only teach some basic skills. Not even Ultimate Skills were taught, let alone Enhanced skills. Mentors rarely accepted disciples. Usually, there were only a few or even only one.
Water Fairy's mentor was from the Lakeside Town. He asked Water Fairy to take the letter of recommendation to the mayor of the Lakeside Town.
The Lakeside Town was located in the western part of the Redridge Mountains. The northern part of the mountains bordering the Burning Steppes had been destroyed, while the southern part was adjacent to the Swamp of Sorrows and Headwind Path. The reason why Lakeside Town got its name was because of a large lake, the name of which was Lake Still.
Lake Still was very large. Unlike the Crystal Lake in Elwynn Forest, it occupied one-sixth of the total area of the entire Redridge Mountains. From the Lakeside Town in the west to the Tower of Illgara in the east, it traversed the entire Redridge Mountains. The shape of the lake was like a dragon that didn't spread its wings, lying across the Redridge Mountains.
The lake water was very clear, and the water plants here were lush. The temperature was just right, and the aquatic products were abundant. Among them, the most famous was the spotted sunfish, a type of fish with tender and smooth meat and a plump head. This fish made up a large proportion of the seafood trade between the merchants of other towns and the fishermen of Lakeside.
Moreover, this lake was one of the most famous tourist attractions on the Azeroth Continent. Many players liked to stay here.
Excluding the players, Lakeside Town had a population of about 2,000. The town had a democratic system of government and would hold a meeting whenever there was a problem.
However, the problem they encountered this time was really troublesome. It was not something that could be solved by holding a meeting.
The mayor of the town was a human male in his fifties. His name was Solomon, and he was a high-ranking warrior with a fiery temper.
"Those damned gnolls are up to no good. In the past two weeks, the gnoll activity in this area has tripled. I'm worried that they might be planning to attack Lakeside Town. "Solomon looked worried.
He was the one who wrote the letter to Water Fairy's mentor, urging this fellow who was doing well outside to come back and protect his hometown.
"What's so scary about the gnolls? You're also a high-ranking warrior. The town's defenses are pretty good, right?" Lu Li saw many high-ranking warriors along the way.
"What do you know?" Solomon glared at Lu Li and said, "The Lakeside Town is not as peaceful as you think. There are tarantulas in the east, orcs in the north, and wolves wandering in the forest. The biggest threat is actually the fallen dwarves of the Blackrock clan. The Blackrock clan has a much larger population than us, and they have built their own castle in the east of the Redridge Mountains. They are separated by Lake Still and the fortress outside Lakeside Town – Stonecastle Stronghold. We must ensure that we have enough troops to guard against those dwarves."
In fact, the Redridge Mountains were originally the territory of these dwarves, and they were the original residents of the Redridge Mountains.
More than 200 years ago, when human and orc immigrants set foot here, the fallen dwarves of the Blackrock clan had been waging war against the foreign races, causing a large number of human and orc immigrants to die. Many years had passed until that day, when the Lakeside Town and Stonecastle Stronghold were built.
"You're not going to let the two of us fight the gnolls, are you?" Lu Li sighed.
"We still have a lot of friends, a lot of them, who are willing to contribute to the Lakeside Town," Water Fairy continued. She and Lu Li were both people with large guilds, and could easily get tens of thousands of people to support them.
"I'm sorry, the Lakeside Town does not welcome outsiders, and even the two of you only gained my trust because of Geno," Solomon said with a straight face.
Damn it, old man, you're too arrogant.
Lu Li really wanted to kick him. How could he still be so picky when a disaster was upon him?
"Okay, Mr. Mayor, what do we need to do now?" Water Fairy's eyes were tinged with a trace of helplessness. After exchanging glances with Lu Li, they could only accept the fact that they could not ask anyone else for this mission.
"I want you to go to every Gnoll camp in the area and collect as much information as you can. Check the camps in the north, east, and southeast. No matter what you find, bring it back to me. "The mayor was very satisfied with the girl's performance, completely ignoring Lu Li's anger.
Lu Li and Water Fairy could only take this mission and explore the Gnoll camps around the Lakeside Town.
The Gnolls in these camps were a little more than level-40, and not more than level-45 at most, so they did not pose much of a threat to them. It was just that there were a little too many of them, so Lu Li and Water Fairy simply went stealthily all the way. After all, the first step of the mission was to investigate.
After investigating a few camps, they actually did not find anything, but Lu Li and Water Fairy encountered an Alliance scout on the periphery of a camp.
"We were sent by Mayor Solomon," Lu Li said hurriedly when he saw that he seemed to be about to attack.
They were not afraid of a level-40 NPC, mainly because they needed information, and this person with the word "scout" in his name was obviously a guy with clues.
"This is my latest harvest. Bring it back to the mayor," the Thief who called himself Parker said coldly.
With the so-called information in hand, Lu Li and Water Fairy hurriedly ran back to the Lakeside Town.
Hopefully, this mission would not be like the one with Sesame Tangyuan, where they had to run countless maps. Whether it was Lu Li or Water Fairy, they were not people who had endless time.
"I asked you to investigate the movements of the Gnolls. How did you come back so quickly?" Mayor Solomon instinctively thought that the two adventurers were perfunctory.
