“Okay, let’s go,” Wendelian sighed as she summoned her mount.

“Big sister, do you want to just transport back to the city?” one player asked. He had just witnessed a high-ranking player get killed with a dozen players around him. It wasn’t just him, but the others were feeling dumbfounded too.

“There’s no need. Ruling Sword won’t be able to do that again,” Wendelian said as she glanced at him coldly.

The fact that Torrent got killed was sothing they deserved; they shouldn’t have co here to ddle in their affairs. However, if they killed a star player like Wendelian or Cloudy Leaf, they would have to bear the risk of an all-out war, especially after these two had already decided to leave.

They couldn’t just use their Hearthstones to return to the city either, as that would be too embarrassing.

“It’s a good item, do you want it?” Water Fairy asked as she leaned against a tree and looked at the Hunter’s T1 Bracer.

“You can keep it,” Lu Li refused as he shook his head. “If you weren’t there, I wouldn’t have been able to kill him alone.”

Water Fairy didn’t insist on it, and just put the item in her backpack.

Lu Li raised his hand and just as Water Fairy thought he was going to touch her hair, he pulled his hand back. There was a small cyan snake on his finger. This wasn’t a monster, but just a small animal in the forest. It wouldn’t bite but it often scared the players.

It wasn’t clear whether Water Fairy was nervous or disappointed, but she murmured a thank you.

“Boss, I saw Cloudy Leaf with a few other players. Do you want to stop them? Our Paladin group is going to et them,” Drifting Rain ssaged during this quiet ti.

The few dozen players were part of a group that Lu Li and Water Fairy couldn’t deal with on their own. However, the hundreds of Paladins that Drifting Rain was leading could easily clear the field. They were strong enough and could easily catch up to them with the Paladin aura and Darkness’ effect.

Lu Li’s next decision would determine the fate of these players.

“Let them go,” Lu Li said, then paused and added, “And get soone to escort them, so no one will bother them.”

This so-called escort was actually a disguised display of force.

“You’re so petty.”

If it was Water Fairy, she would have let them go, but she wouldn’t have commanded an escort for them. With so many Paladins, Gale Legion’s faces must have been priceless.

“If I had died today, they wouldn’t be around for much longer,” Lu Li snorted in response.

“There are so many weird items in Dawn; being more cautious helps you live longer.”

Water Fairy was worried about Lu Li at first. After all, he had just faced three professional players, which ant that any mistake could have resulted in his death.

“I have a lot of weird items myself,” Lu Li said arrogantly, but he also knew that Water Fairy was just caring about him. When he called Water Fairy for help, the girl had responded without needing to be asked a second ti.

“There are still other troubles in Grey Valley. These players can’t afford to do anything too crazy,” Water Fairy said, furrowing her brow.

“Their main objective is to be annoying. I have asked for all foreign players to be thoroughly cleared out. After all, at a ti like this, they are all enemies.”

Lu Li understood what the clubs were trying to do. They were envious and hateful, and wanted to do sothing, but they didn’t dare to launch a full-scale war.

Regardless of how ssy it was, Ruling Sword’s Stronghold would be built.

The other clubs had to be prepared to attack the Stronghold, or target the new territory that was being announced next week. These clubs would then beco competitors and fight each other more than they would against Ruling Sword.

No one wanted to take the first shot. They all wanted soone else to attack first, so they could co in to scoop up the rewards.

If Ruling Sword and Drizzle Court could fight Glory Capital and Gale Legion, then clubs like Blood Red War Flag would be overjoyed.

“What are you going to do now?” Water Fairy asked.

“Get more materials and wait for the next players to co,” Lu Li said as he pointed at the few stone cars that weren’t far away.

“Ah.”

Water Fairy finally knew why Lu Li had beco a target – he had done it to himself.

“It’s a part of building the Stronghold,” Lu Li said awkwardly. As a leader, he didn’t actually need to do any of the work himself. He could have just given an instruction and put soone in charge. However, he was like an old farr that was used to tending to his crops. He just wasn’t used to doing nothing.

“Let’s finish this up then,” Water Fairy offered as she helped Lu Li lifted up a cart that had been overturned.

“You don’t have to trouble yourself. I feel a great sense of accomplishnt when I do it myself,” Lu Li explained. He didn’t think there was anything wrong with what he was doing.

“I also feel a sense of accomplishnt when I do it myself, but this will result in even more work for your guild, especially if sothing like what just happened happens again. If you don’t believe , look at where the defenses are on the map. The area you are in is fully secured by sentries,” Water Fairy said.

It wasn’t because Lu Li was stupid; he just wasn’t used to the treatnt of a leader.

Lu Li was almost killed, which was a very serious thing. It was just like when Lu Li assassinated Sorrowless. That assassination made Lu Li famous, and it also affected Glory Capital in a way that they still hadn’t fully recovered from.

After knowing Lu Li’s position, Drifting Rain imdiately mobilized a large number of players in the area to ensure that no enemy could threaten Lu Li any longer.

What a ss!

Water Fairy reminded, and was confird by Drifting Rain, that Lu Li gathering these materials was not helping but creating more work.

“Alright then, I’ll go offline. There’s nothing else to do,” Lu Li sighed. His interest in the work quickly waned.

“I’m going out soon to buy sothing. Do you want to co with?” Water Fairy asked. She couldn’t bear to see Lu Li feeling down, so she invited him out.

“Of course. The thing I have the most of right now is energy,” Lu Li agreed.

There was a large shopping mall nearby which had everything they needed. It wasn’t a holiday or the weekend right now, so he couldn’t spend ti with his sister. Water Fairy pointed to a make-up brand and said, “This is very suitable for Lu Xin. It is a special product that doesn’t damage the skin.”

“Buy buy buy! Get two of them!”

“I don’t need this; I’m not a child. It is better for to use another one,” Water Fairy quickly stopped him. This guy’s idea of shopping was absolutely dumbfounding.
