Daltry looked at them with a strange expression on his face . If it weren't for the friendship between Lu Li and the Night's Watchmen, he might have even taunted them .
"I know you don't believe in divination, but I received similar information from another source . I think we should take it seriously, just in case this is another Mor'Ladim," Lu Li said .
This seemed to strike a chord with the clerk . Daltry nodded and agreed, "Alright, I'll help you find out about Stalvan . "
In the game world where there weren't any computers, searching for information was a difficult task . There was a huge room in Darkshire's hall specifically made to store those documents .
Fortunately, Daltry had been working in Darkshire for more than ten years and was very familiar with everything there .
After only spending a little more than half an hour, he found a record of Stalvan .
"The record shows that he's just a teacher . "
Daltry was quite dismissive of Stalvan . What threat could a teacher pose?
"My intuition tells me that there's something wrong with this person," Lu Li pressed on, referencing his made-up intuition .
"In that case, you can take these files . You can give them back after you're done . "
Daltry didn't insist any longer seeing as the work had already been done . The result didn't have much to do with him anyway .
"Thank you, and also thank the Night's Watchmen," Lu Li said, showing his gratitude .
He then led Sesame Rice ball away to a secluded place and began to study the files .
In fact, it was just a very crude piece of information . There was only a simple description of his gender, age, history and appearance . It was the kind of information the clerk would record when a newcomer arrived .
Moonbrook .
Both Lu Li and Sesame Rice Ball stopped on this word; this was probably the only clue to their next location .
If they wanted to go to Moonbrook, they would have to travel past the Western Wilderness . Lu Li had been there before on foot, but it wouldn't be too far with the help of the Teleportation Portals .
However, he had a feeling that that wasn't the end point . These kinds of specialization quests prior to the System update were not that easy to complete .
The once-beautiful town of Moonbrook had now been completely destroyed and the river that coursed through it had dried . Only the ruins of houses remained, guarded by the patrolling guards and Mages of the Brotherhood .
The inhabitants of the town had fled due to the constant attacks of the Brotherhood .
Stalvan was a teacher and had worked at Moonbrook's former school, but that had also been looted .
"This place is really gloomy . Who can we ask for information here?" Sesame Rice Ball asked gloomily, no longer feeling like this was a simple errand .
"How about you go ask those monsters?" Lu Li casually teased him .
"But they're just level 20 monsters – how about we kill them?" Sesame Rice Ball asked disdainfully after some observation .
"I completely agree . I'll pull them and you can deal damage . Maybe they'll drop some clues . "
Lu Li accelerated and did a lap around the school, leading a dense group of monsters .
Sesame Rice Ball then casted his area of effect skills and a large number of critical hit values floated above the monsters as they fell to the ground .
After quickly looting the bodies, all they found was rubbish equipment and low grade materials . These were all sold at the shop and even the NPC looked disgusted, but the item they needed was also dropped .
It was a letter .
Sir Flintley:
I hear from my friends that you are looking for a teacher for your child . I am currently temporarily living in the Lion's Pride Inn at Goldshire . Given the bad situation in Moonbrook, I was forced to give up my job as a teacher . I would like to be your child's teacher and I hope you accept my offer . If necessary, Mr Murdoch can attest to my ability .
When the rainy season passes and the road is suitable for a caravan to travel, I will personally look for you .
See you then .
Stalvan Mismantle in the Silverpine Forest .
Who was Sir Flintley?
Lu Li didn't know either; he hadn't completed this quest before in his previous life nor had he read the strategy for it . However, he deduced that Sir Flintley was a lower-class knight, who wasn't notable enough to have a biography .
"What next?" Sesame Rice Ball asked as he flicked his hair aside with a bitter look on his face .
"I guess we'll go to Goldshire to have a look . Did you think that this quest would be simple?"
Lu Li wanted to run away when he heard this was going to be some errand quest . Dawn had some quests which were not only troublesome, but also had very vague clues . Lu Li would rather fight a Boss than attempt those .
Goldshire was a small town near Stormwind . The environment was much safer and it wasn't far away .
The owner of Lion's Pride was a man from the seas . Many players had interacted with him before and regarded this NPC as one filled with wisdom .
"What can I help you with, children?"
Lu Li was more experience in dealing with NPCs than Sesame Rice Ball, so he did the talking .
"We're looking for someone called Stalvan, Stalvan Mismantle . But, I don't know if you'll remember him – he was a gentleman who lived in your inn a long time ago . "
Uncle Farley thought for a moment before slapping his forehead and saying, "I do remember, he stayed with me for a long time, together with one of his friends . He sent a letter and then left shortly after that . His friend also left at that time, and they haven't been back since . I don't remember much else; it was a long time ago . "
"Thank you, Uncle Farley," Sesame Rice Ball said sincerely . He could finally continue with his quest .
Dear Murdoch:
Hello, thank you for your recommendation . I am now the tutor of Aisina, Sir Flintley's daughter . She is a charming girl who is very interested in math and she seems to adore me . You don't have to worry about me anymore . Let me know the next time you're in Stormwind and I'll buy you a couple of drinks .
Your friend Stalvan .
Stormwind City!
Sesame Rice Ball and Lu Li looked at each other and let out a long sigh .
They couldn't believe that this wasn't over yet . Why couldn't Stalvan just stay in one place? Why did he have to travel so much?
Moreover, Stormwind City was bustling with aristocrats; it was going to be difficult to find a single knight there . Even if there were thousands of Dukes, the sheer number of them made the title worthless .
After arriving at Stormwind, Lu Li and Sesame Rice Ball began asking about Sir Flintley .
They had already decided that if they couldn't find anything, they would ask those in the guild who were free to help and would also post a task in the Mercenary Hall for information about Flintley .
However, what surprised them was that Sir Flintley was actually very famous among the NPCs . Even the guards to the entrance of Stormwind knew him .
