The Great Thief - Chapter 640

Chapter 640

Shadow Spiders were very valuable animals .

Their venom was an important ingredient for making poison, while Spider Carapace could be used to make leather armor and Chain Main Armor . Many blueprints required the use of these their materials . Shadow Spider legs were also useful in cooking .

However, the most precious of all was Shadow Spider Silk . This material was incomparable to the usual rare materials .

The Blood Island Shadow Spiders made up a considerable proportion of the Shadow Spiders . Their levels were quite low – about level 25 or so – which meant that they could be easily farmed with some antidotes .

Unfortunately, the Shadow Canyon on Blood Island was controlled by the Draenei and they had set aside a considerable force to kill anyone who hunted their Shadow Spiders .

Despite this, there were many players who still tried their luck at the prospect of making some money .

As they were able to revive, the loss of EXP was a small cost to those players that were only at level 25 .

The real danger was in the Teleportation Channel .

Those caught would be marked by a guard, which would prevent them from using the Teleportation channel between Blood Island and Blue Island . This meant that they had to say goodbye to an entire map .

Even so, there were plenty of ways to make money, many of which didn't have to do with the Draenei .

However, the poachers in this quest were not players – they were human NPC mercenaries . They were humanoid monsters that were on a quest to kill whatever monster they were assigned to .

They could be a wide range of professions, but most of them were Warlocks .

Warlocks were good at controlling their magic and they also had Internal Pets . They were quite strong, and level 20+ players would struggle against them . The strategy that Lu Li remembered required level 30 players, but Lu Li was already level 40 .

"Follow closely behind me, but I will be the one doing the fighting," Lu Li said as he touched the little Draenei's horns, trying to not make it sound like a command .

At this age, children were said to be quite rebellious . You couldn't be too tough on them because they would just resent you, which was even worse .

However, Lu Li's sister wasn't like that . They had grown up in a bad environment, so she didn't get a chance to develop those attributes .

"No! I am a warrior; I want to fight!" Jorli immediately objected . She had heard many heroic stories and was like a bird that really wanted to escape its cage .

Lu Li really regretted talking to this sentry . Perhaps he could teach this girl what the world was like .

"If you don't take me, I won't let you help me . "

The Draenei girl seemed to be able to see Lu Li's intentions and forced him to abandon the idea of leaving her behind .

Lu Li didn't even really want to help her, especially with that attitude, but when he opened his mouth he said, "Why would I do that? I'm happy to fight with you . I'm quite curious about the power of the Draenei . "

"You'll see," she said as she slung her hammer over her shoulder and went first into the valley .

Lu Li was startled as he hurried past her .

The valley was filled with trees with purple leaves . The shrubbery in this area was mostly the same color, which might have been because of the soil . The Shadow Spiders preferred a habitat where the vegetation was of this color .

There were many spiders climbing among the bushes .

They were all neutral monsters and wouldn't attack unless provoked, so they left them alone .

In a sense, these Shadow Spiders were pets kept by the Blood island Draenei, who specialized in trading rare materials such as Spider Silk .

"I smell a strange smell," Jorli announced after she knelt down and sniffed the area .

Lu Li glanced around and patted the little loli Draenei's head . He pointed ahead and said, "You don't have to sniff – just look ahead . Those are the poachers we are looking for . "

The targets could clearly be seen with their eyes, yet this girl wanted to use her nose to smell them . This girl was delusional . She wasn't a Draenei; she was a dog .

"Keke…I…" The poor Draenei girl's originally blue skin started to become a little flush .

Lu Li had a lot of experience with girls that age and knew that if he kept talking about it, it would only embarrass her, so he decided to drop the subject . He was afraid that the poacher would attack her, so he didn't go into Stealth and directly approached them .

When one of the poachers saw Lu Li, he raised his hand and continued applying his damage reduction effects . It wasn't clear as to whether he was confident to take on Lu Li in a 2 v 1 or if Jorli's level was just too low, but the Infernal Pet unexpectedly rushed past Jorli towards Lu Li .

Lu Li immediately scattered the Blind Powder onto the poacher's eyes . The blind effect was applied and Lu Li rushed at the Infernal .

The Infernal and Shadow Spider Poachers were both level 25 . Lu Li and a level 30 NPC were able to get rid of the Infernal within three hits before charging into the Shadow Spider Poacher .

Unhappy at how quickly this was all happening, Jorli ran towards the Shadow Spider Poacher with her hammer, even though he was still blinded .

If the hammer hit the Shadow Spider Poacher, the blind duration would end . Lu Li didn't even know what would happen after that, but he knew that this girl's head was empty .

This baby wasn't afraid of provoking a lion . She easily summoned the courage and struck the Shadow Spider Poacher's knees .

That's right – his knees…

After hearing a cracking sound, Lu Li quickly realized that her attack wasn't such a bad idea .

The Shadow Spider Poacher let out a shrill scream, then raised his Magic Staff and casted Shadow Bolt right at the Draenei girl's head .

Jorli seemed frightened by her opponent's scream; she didn't expect for that to happen .

"He was just hit by a child . Why is he crying like that…" she wondered to herself .

Fortunately, Lu Li arrived in time and casted Gouge to stun the Shadow Spider Poacher . He then smoothly casted a few more skills in succession to finish him off before giving him a chance to retaliate .

"We are partners, right?" Lu Li asked as he crouched down and looked at the small Draenei .

He was shocked, but was still okay . Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to save her . He didn't even know if she would have died to that attack .

"That sounds right . "

The little loli was still excited about the first time using her hammer . This was her first step to becoming strong .

She even felt like she was now able to kill Shadow Spider Poachers because of her success .

She had smashed the Shadow Spider Poacher's knee to weaken him before Lu Li finished him off . Even if Lu Li wasn't there, she thought she could have done the same thing .
