After he activated the special effect of the skill, Lu Li turned into a little gray bat and flew away from the approaching Skeletons .

When the Skeletons began to search for him, Lu Li had already left battle and entered Stealth mode .

The location he wanted to find was inside the Scarlet Crusade castle and he had to take a detour . If he followed the usual path, he would have to defeat all the Bosses, except for the last one .

Even if he had his whole team here, he wouldn't be able to take down a single Boss . The level difference was made glaringly obvious in Stratholme .

The Bosses could instantly kill anyone in the Xin Xin Mercenary Group without using any skills .

Lu Li had never planned to initiate any Boss fights anyway .

However, there were bars blocking the path that he couldn't get through .

The monsters would become frantic as soon they saw someone attempting to open the locks . Even if you could defeat these monsters, you couldn't possibly open Unlock these bars without defeating the Bosses .



This was an unsolvable problem for most people .

The only reason that Lu Li didn't give up this quest was because he was confident in one of his items .

Hex's Protobelt (Dark Gold): Armour 46, Agility +30, Strength +12, 1 Slot . Special Effect 1: 12% Critical Hit . Special Effect 2: Atomization . Instant Cast . The user's body dissipates like fog and is forced into Stealth with a 20% increased Stealth effect . The user can walk through some obstacles . 2-minute cooldown . Special Effect 3: Magic Power Field . Instant Cast . By distorting the surrounded magic environment within 4 yards, all magic within the field is silenced for 1 . 5 seconds . 24-hour cooldown . Equipment Requirement: Level 45 . Durability 164/164 .

The Atomization effect not only allowed Lu Li to enter Stealth by force, but also granted him the ability to ignore some unit collision .

If Lu Li hadn't gone through rebirth, he would have died many times already . Besides the elite Skeletons, there was another type of monster that could kill him before he had a chance to react .

The cockroaches!

Although they were ordinary level 40 monsters, their threat was in their numbers .

They were also tiny and often hid in cracks, so players were often taken by surprise .

Of course, Lu Li had a strategy for dealing with them – he could boost his speed or use damage reduction .



The monsters in Stratholme were densely packed together . He would definitely run into trouble if he wasn't careful about his escape route . Lu Li couldn't even defeat some of the monsters in the dungeon in a one on one fight .

However, a previous player had discovered a secret solution to this problem – the holy water found in the supply boxes of the building .

Normally, the holy water of Stratholme was used to boost damage dealt towards the Undead, but if you painted some on your shoes, the cockroaches would be deterred .


Lu Li entered the dungeon, but he wasn't in a hurry to explore . Instead, he went into Stealth and hurried over to a corner to dig around the old supply boxes .

There were some loaves of bread inside – expired of course .

Some of the boxes contained potions, that were usable if you didn't mind their age .

If you were lucky, you would even be able to find some equipment in there, but most of them came with terrible Attributes .

The holy water drop rate was quite low and Lu Li also had to be careful of the rats or cockroaches that might pop out from the boxes . The rats weren't troublesome as they came in small groups, but if he accidentally opened a hive of cockroaches, that would be a disaster .

Fortunately, Lu Li found a bottle of holy water in his second supply box, which was enough for him .

With the protection of the holy water, Lu Li no longer had to worry about running into cockroaches .

Once he reached the first set of bars, he atomized and passed through .

The monsters nearby didn't even react .

After around forty to fifty minutes, Lu Li entered the Scarlet Crusade castle .

When he arrived in the File Hall, his next task was to steal the hidden portrait in front of Instructor Galford . Instructor Galford was a Boss .

At some point, he had been proud of his job, looking after the precious files of the Crusade . Before he died, he watched in horror as his precious files were completely destroyed . Balnazzar used this painful memory to instill a burning passion into his servant .

Galford was level 50 with four 400,000 HP and three high-damage skills .

Lu Li was no match for him, but he had to take the quest item from behind the portrait and safely escape with it . This would require at least thirty seconds .

Fortunately, he had come prepared .

Lu Li shook his head; it was hard to imagine how anyone else would complete this quest .

The Book of Ur (Gold): All Attributes +15, Critical Strike +10% . Special Effect 1: Summon a giant

Wolf, five-minute duration . Cooldown 24 hours . Special Effect 2: Worgen Transformation, instant

Cast . Transform into a Worgen, lasts for ten seconds . Cooldown 24 hours . Level Requirement 35,

Durability 120/120 .

After the first wave of patrol monsters left, Lu Li flipped open The Book of Ur and as his fingers slid across the silver wolf on the page, a giant wolf appeared before him .

The giant wolf was a summoned pet . It was gentle and stayed low on the ground to show its loyalty .

Lu Li patted it on the head and pointed to the file hall as he said, "Buddy, go and lure out the one inside . Be careful not to die . "

After this, Lu Li hid behind a pillar .

The giant wolf gave Lu Li a look of disgust, but still followed its master's instructions and raced into the File Hall .
