Chapter 562

It wasn’t hard to trigger Laugh Into the Heavens’ quest . When killing the Bloodsail Buccaneers around the shores of Stranglethorn Vale, have you ever come across a half-buried bottle in the sands?



Perhaps some players had walked across it, but never bothered to pick up the bottle .

Although Laugh Into the Heavens seemed like a buff man and only thought about money, he was someone who was capable of discovering and seizing opportunities . After he opened the bottle, he found a slip inside .

Tales around drifting bottles could often be found in a variety of fairytales . They could be about treasure, a romantic love story, or perhaps a bored demon who lived within the bottle .

When Laugh Into the Heavens found the bottle, he was excited – he thought that he had had a chance to marry a princess .

It was indeed from a princess; the beautiful writing was very princess-like as well . However, it had nothing to do with love .

To anyone who can help me: Please, I desperately need help . A giant Skymane Gorilla has captured me and locked me on an island along the South shore . It thinks I’m cute and wants to keep me as a pet . How can a princess from the Kreego household be kept as someone’s pet, not to mention the pet of an ugly gorilla? I need a hero to save me, but I’m not sure where I am, so I can only describe what I see .

The night view from this location is unlike any other nights that I’ve seen in my life . The island is filled with thick forests of trees, but when the weather is good, I can see the shore in the Northwest direction . There were also a few ships that passed by and sailed towards the Southeast .

When Lu Li saw the slip, he felt a similar emotion towards Laugh Into the Heavens .

Any man with the slightest bit of sympathy probably wouldn’t leave the Gnome princess to be caged up by a gorilla on an island .



Yes, that’s right – she was a Gnome princess . Kreego was a prince in Ironforge and was also a powerful Gnome caster .

A caged princess had placed all her hopes inside this tiny little bottle . How could the players not go and save her?

Hence, Lu Li and Laugh Into the Heavens returned to Booty Bay in Stranglethorn Vale .

Booty Bay was a harbor city owned by the boss of the Blackwater pirates, Baron Revilgaz . It was a part of the Hot Sand group and their worst enemies were the Bloodsail Buccaneers .

Even though they were pirates, they were a neutral faction .

Along the north side of Booty Bay, Laugh Into the Heavens pointed at a section of the beach and said, "This was where I found the bottle . "

"No one else found the bottle?" Lu Li investigated the area and didn’t see any other bottles .

"I haven’t heard of anyone else with the bottle . I only found it a few days ago while I was killing the crabs here . I like crab buns; the crabs here make good buns," Laugh Into the Heavens explained as he gazed at the crabs along the beach with interest .

Lu Li quickly stopped him, "Don’t worry about the crab buns . Have you tried to search for the island?"



"Of course I’ve tried, but the monsters in the sea are too dangerous . The sailors in Booty Bay refuse to change their course, so I haven’t found the island yet . Do you have a solution?" Laugh Into the Heavens asked as he spread his hands .

"She said she saw the shore and ships . Perhaps it was an illusion," Lu Li guessed .

From the descriptions of the paper slip, he pictured a self-obsessed princess . Perhaps it wasn’t so bad for her to be a gorilla’s pet . She could probably only reach up to an average human’s waist in terms of height . The two might even look cute together .


"Maybe it’s because of the weather . The weather in Stranglethorn Vale is horrible and there’s mist everywhere . " It seemed like Laugh Into the Heavens didn’t like the environment . "We need to set sail . Do you know anyone who could take us?’

"There’s no need for so much trouble . We only need to prepare two things . " Lu Li felt like he was taking advantage of Laugh Into the Heavens .

This quest had no level of difficulty at all .

"Which two things?" Laugh Into the Heavens had already tried many different solutions . He had even brought some mercenaries to steal a ship, but unfortunately, he didn’t succeed and lost EXP in the process .

"Head over to the Black Bear bar in Stormwind City and look for a guy with an eyepatch . He should be there drinking all the time," Lu Li said .

"Doesn’t he ever pee?" Laugh Into the Heavens asked .

"Uhm…" Lu Li wasn’t sure how he should answer him; Laugh Into the Heavens had a strange way of thinking . Of course, a person who kept drinking would have to eventually head to the bathroom, but this was a game . Did anyone ever need to go to the bathroom?

Lu Li quickly stopped himself from his drifting thoughts . It was too dangerous for him to be around someone like Laugh Into the Heavens .

"A guy with an eyepatch, right? I’ll keep this in mind . If he goes to the toilet, I’ll just wait for him in the bar . What next? Are we taking him on an adventure after I find him?" Laugh Into the Heavens asked, trying his best to cover his silly personality .

"Buy a telescope from him . How can you set sail without a telescope?" Lu Li tried to remain patient .

"What about you? What are you doing?" Laugh Into the Heavens didn’t want to be the only one doing something .

"I’ve got to go and find a ship . " Dawn didn’t support technology creation yet, so players couldn’t build their own ship, even if they knew how to . Lu Li had multiple ways to find a ship – he could buy one, borrow one or even pick one up .

Speaking of picking up ships, Lu Li instantly remembered the worn-out ships that floated around in Feralas Dalmond Lake .

This was one of the few ways to obtain a ship with the least cost . These ships didn’t belong to anyone, so players could take them, fix them and use them for themselves .

After they dragged the ship away, they would refresh and players could then continue to collect them . The gaming company wasn’t impressed by this, so eventually, they turned those ships into a part of the scenery .

"Good luck . " Laugh Into the Heavens felt better; he could easily buy a telescope . The hardest part of this quest was finding a ship . He was happy that Lu Li had done so much for him for the cheap price of a rare material .

They both headed off to make preparations . Lu Li gave a heads up to Square Root 3 and asked him to steal a ship at night .

The ships weren’t just simple piles of wood – they were worth quite a lot .

As for Lu Li himself, who could catch the coattails of a top Thief?

Feralas was beautiful as usual . The reflections of the ships looked identical to reality, but underneath, it was an entirely different world .

Lu Li jumped under the surface and swam towards the ships .

None of these ships were in good condition . One of them was on the verge of falling apart – half of the hull was filled with water . The other ships were in slightly better condition, but none of them were seaworthy .

Lu Li had already cleared his bag, apart from his important items .

He picked a ship that looked to be in the best condition . The sail had already rotted away and the roof of the cabin was broken, but the majority of the structure was still fine .
