Square Root 3 counted the number of people who were awarded Skill Points; there was a total of seven players .
This was an indication of how rare Skill Points truly were .
Lu Li shared the quest he was doing, but only a few hundred players could accept it .
The remaining tens of thousands of players who were fighting in Jintha'Alor went their separate ways . Lu Li took the few hundred players to the Altar of Zul on a quest to find the Elder Trolls . It wasn't clear what the Elders were thinking when they saw all those players, but their faces were blue anyway .
Lu Li guessed that they probably suspected that all these players were there to kill them .
The quest that Lu Li had shared wasn't a Main Quest . When the little bit of EXP was distributed, Lu Li received the biggest portion . Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered with these elders .
Regardless, the Tribe had a good relationship with the Horde and he was basically hurting the Horde by doing this .
After Lu Li had set aside the other players, the Elder Troll was very grateful in thanking him .
"Thank you for saving me from the Vile Demon Tribe . "
Lu Li had been gone for more than ten days and the tribe was about to sacrifice him . He thought that Lu Li had forgotten him .
"I'm glad that you're okay, my dearest friend," Lu Li said graciously . He wasn't arrogant just because he was standing before hundreds of players .
"Although you must have had a difficult time here, I thought that you should know the reward I have received before doing this rescue mission," he continued, deliberately revelaing the Hex's Protobelt that was on his waist .
"Heavens, you actually killed Hex! But, she had so many underlings…" The elder's face looked quite grim, but he couldn't complain .
"How would I have rescued your excellency without killing Hex? I mobilized tens of thousands of experts to Jintha'Alor in order to kill her," Lu Li said, then paused before adding, "I plan to take some people to Shadra'Alor . Would you like us to escort you back to Revantusk? It's on the way…"
Shadra'Alor was the Dreadwood Trolls' domain . The Deadwood Trolls and Vile Trolls had formed an alliance in Zul'Jin . However, after they returned to the Hinterlands, the Deadwood Troll settled in Shadra'Alor and no longer obeyed the Vile Trolls . Instead, they formed an alliance with the Highland Ogres and became enemies with the Vile Trolls .
But, that was not the point . The point was that Revantusk was not on the way to Shadra'Alor at all .
Lu Li's words were translated in the elder's ears to, "I saved your life . If your rewards do not satisfy me, I will take my people and level Revantusk .
Even if he had said those words earlier, the elder probably would have been suspicious .
At this time, Lu Li had just finished capturing Jintha'Alor and killed the Vile Priestess Hex . The elder felt a chill down his spine .
He could imagine Revantusk being ravaged by these barbaric adventurers .
Ruling Sword did have the strength to do this, and Revantusk didn't have a level 50 Boss . Otherwise, the elder wouldn't have been stolen away by the Jintha'Alor's Vile Trolls to be sacrificed .
However, Revantusk belonged to the Horde . Once Lu Li attacked Revantusk, the System was bound to send an alert to the Horde players .
Unfortunately, the elder didn't understand the broader situation .
He hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "I actually have a treasure, but unfortunately, I lost it to Skulk Rock . Do you know Skulk Rock? Many years ago, there was a Horde Base that lay in its depths, but it has long since been abandoned . Now, there are disgusting Oozelings everywhere . They are irrational and corrosive beings, wandering around looking for things to eat . Are you and your friends brave enough?"
"Are you sure that your treasure is worth me clearing out Skulk Rock, a place that even the Wildhammer Dwarves couldn't overcome?" Lu Li was a little angry .
Some of the others might have been confused, but he was no stranger to this place as he had experienced Rebirth . This was a strategic location that both the Wildhammer and Trolls wanted to occupy, but had been blocked by the Oozelings .
Oozelings dealt a lot of damage to Trolls and weren't affected by Hexes .
The Dwarves weren't willing to pay such a price to occupy a humid environment that made them so uncomfortable . As such, this place became a gap between the two forces . The Oozelings were about level 50, so it was best that the players didn't provoke them until they were level 50 as well .
"I swear that the reward would absolutely satisfy you . You know that I was taken prisoner, so my valuables were taken from me . If you still don't want to believe me, then just kill me," the elder said helplessly .
"Alright, I believe you . " Lu Li knew when it was time to stop .
This type of 'Quest Monster' was just a poor old creature; killing him wouldn't drop anything good . Although Lu Li still wanted something more, he had nothing left to say if this monster really had nothing .
Those players who had been sharing EXP with Lu Li were reluctant to go .
"Boss, we'll come with you . Even if we can't help, we can clear the mobs . "
It wasn't because they were trying to get something, but the opportunity to play alongside their idol was rare .
"That would be quite troublesome for everyone . "
Lu Li had no reason to reject their offer . The elder's treasure was lost in Skulk Rock, and he wasn't sure if it was in a treasure chest or in an Oozeling . Either way, he had to kill a bunch of monsters . With his current equipment, it wasn't easy to kill level 50 monsters, so it would be good to have a group of players there to help .
"No trouble; it's not trouble at all!" The little group was overjoyed as they headed for Skulk Rock .
A huge colony of Oozelings lurked in the mud that covered the entire area . As they moved around, bubbles rose and popped on the surface . After looking at the vegetation, Lu Li chose a path that looked to be the safest .
