The Great Thief

Chapter 1811 - Cannon Fodder

Chapter 1811: Cannon Fodder

After he heard Lu Li’s story, Danath Trollbane fell silent for a long time. He still remembered Windsor. He was Turalyon’s most cherished soldier and used to follow Sir Lothar and the guardian’s battles.

What made it even more wholesome was that he turned out, as everyone expected, into an outstanding commander.

Yet in the end, he still ended up, as fate foreshadowed, dead in the hands of the Black Dragon.

“Such an idiot. He shouldn’t have gone to provoke the Black Dragon. Fate had already warned him.”

“Please don’t be too sad. When the Marshall died, he was engraved in everyone’s memory as a hero. Plus, he successfully laid bare the Princess of the Black Dragon’s conspiracy. We were then able to win against the Princess of the Black Dragon and beheaded her as revenge for the Marshall,” Lu Li said.

“I’m not actually sad. In fact I’m very grateful he didn’t become a coward out of fear of his fate,” Danath Trollbane said as he moved the edge of his lips to show a smile.

“If he knew you commended him this way, he would be really happy.”

One old acquaintance. One new acquaintance. Both reminisced Marshall Windsor and that heroic person that had already been taken by time.

Having said that, Danath Trollbane’s emotions were still a little low. He wasn’t even that concerned with the intel that Lu Li had given him. However, the reward he gave to Lu Li was still much more than he had anticipated.

The main thing was still EXP and also some Reputation.

“Now, is there anything else I can help with?”

He was becoming frustrated with how difficult it seemed to find quests, so Lu Li had to hint at the NPCs.

“If you would like, there are still some things I need help with. I’m planning to dispatch some Gryphon Riders to destroy some equipment at Forge Camp. The Burning Legion’s Gan’arg Servant is working day and night to get the campsite running. Once the Cannon Fodder is complete, they will no doubt attack Thrallmar’s Orcs. These Orcs are different from the others. Honor Hold doesn’t wish for their campsite to be destroyed by the Burning Legion.”

Forge Camp was the Burning Legion’s frontline factory. They had many places like these in Draenor.

Would he himself be riding a Gryphon to go bomb the Burning Legion’s monster? Lu Li vaguely remembered that Hellfire Peninsula had a similar quest.

“I swear using the name of a soldier that I will do my very best in completing this mission,” Lu Li promised, feeling satisfied. Riding a ferocious NPC Gryphon, he would have a vastly different fighting power to all the other players. He could drop down fire from above which would send the Burning Legion crying home. It was exciting just to think about it.

“I believe you, child. Go take these signal flares and distribute them among populated enemy areas. Also use them where there are Fel Cannons. Then, our knights will be able to see the bombing target from the sky. However, you must be careful because the fast-flying knights might not see your flares from high in the sky. In case you have any mishaps, then that would let down Windsor’s appreciation for you.”

Lu Li held his fist tightly and really wanted to punch Danath Trollbane’s old face.

He really looked down on people. Just then, he was showing him an appreciative look and now he had turned around and given him a cannon fodder quest.

If it was little Hachi Chan, what type of quest would she receive?

She would probably just need to comb the Gryphon’s hair and would receive a large amount of EXP and rare equipment as compensation.

Originally, he used to think that Hachi Chan was the System’s daughter, while he was the son raised by the stepmother.

Now, he didn’t think this way. If Hachi Chan was the System’s daughter, then he was the System’s enemy’s son.

Now, Lu Li’s level ranking was number one. The number two was Hachi Chan.

Lu Li was the person to first enter into the Outlands. Plus, besides working hard to fight monsters, he had also used his advantage of being reborn to gain a quest.

What had Little Chan done? During this time, she was sitting down with crossed legs while trying to make conversation with every person who came to her regarding quests because she was so bored. Then, she would watch on as her EXP bar increase exponentially.

Even the short-legged Remnant Dream had to go find one corpse after the other with a brow covered in sweat.

“34 bronze coins. As Brother Lu Li said, I get one-fifth. Yep, those 10. The remaining will be split among everyone equally. Also, everyone will receive one equipment. Hehe the ones I’ve secretly packed won’t be found out by people. The backpack is nearly full.”

Lu Li had to work even harder than Remnant Dream; he was exerting his all by running around. Red-coloured smoke behind him rose up, then immediately, a loud bang sounded.

“Bro, I’m on your side! No need to be this much of a hurry.”

Lu Li didn’t even have time to complain and continued to crawl to the next target. The Gang’arg Servants and demonic machinery that were just behind him had already turned ruins. There were so many monsters, and a majority of them were elites. If he had killed them all, Lu Li could have reached level 65 by now.

“Have you gotten to the expected location? If you don’t come now there won’t be any other opportunities,” Lu Li said in the team chat channel.

“Boss, we can’t fly,” Cain’s Left Hand replied helplessly. This was the sxith time that he replied with the same answer.

He was sent here to act as cannon fodder. Of course, Lu Li wasn’t satisfied to just do one quest. He used the shortest time possible to assemble a group of Thieves and Druids, telling them to follow a relatively safe route to rush here from the Stair of Destiny. Later, Lu Li would tempt a Gryphon Knight to drop fire on Razorsaw.

Razorsaw was the area Boss, and was different from the Pit Commander. If it doesn’t drop an Epic equip, Lu Li would cut off his own head to kick around like a ball.

Unfortunately, Sesame Rice Ball and the other Warlocks who had Summoning Portal all couldn’t fly. The current situation on the Hellfire Peninsula for ordinary players was hell. The only ones who came over were Thieves and Druids with Stealth skills.

However, most of them were thieves. Druids were in charge of Tanking monsters and healing HP.

This type of irregular format was not suitable to fighting the Boss. However, if Lu Li could lead Razorsaw right under the fire of the Gryphon Knights and bomb it a few dozen times, he probably wouldn’t have much HP remaining.

Razorsaw was a machine unit and was created by the Mo’arg Engineer.

The Mo’arg Engineer was an ethnic Mo’arg and belonged to the Burning Legion. As the wisest individual, he used to be a leader of the Mo’arg. Many armed Mo’arg blacksmiths had even more terrifying damage than Doomguards, while the Legion’s many battle machines, including Star Warships ,were designed by him.
