Chapter 17: Observation
The next day,
Kael'thas made it to level 16, but his plans to explore the Troll's Crypt alone fell through.
Because of Liadrin, of course...
The young High Elf priestess refused to leave Kael'thas for anything, especially after knowing his intentions, and was even more worried about following him, so as not to give Kael'thas the slightest chance to escape.
She even spent the night outside Kael'thas in her room, fearing that her master would leave without saying goodbye.
Kael'thas was helpless, revealing that his mentor was a great arcane mage, and had given him absolute security, and no troll could harm him.
However, Liadline was not convinced......
This made Kael'thas very uncomfortable, he could safely complete the task with the title of cross-dresser, but Liadelin did not have this ability. If she had to be with him, Kael'thas had to make some changes to his plans.
He had to try to do it conservatively......
The so-called conservative method is to simply find the origin of the troll, and his task is to [find the source of the troll], then, as long as he finds out where the troll appears, he should be able to complete this task. For example, if the place where the trolls appear is really Amani's tomb, then Kael'thas will be able to complete this task when he arrives there.
As for more probes, with Liadrin, he can't do it...
This is reality, not a game, and Kael'thas doesn't dare to risk it!
So he led Liadline towards the mountains below the village of Crown, the only continuous mountain range in the interior of the Woodlands, with the village of Crowning to the north, the Temple of the Sun to the south, Taqueline on the left, and the camp of the Far Wanderer on the right. It can be said that this nameless mountain range is located in the middle of all the High Elf settlements, and Kael'thas could not imagine that if the trolls really had some conspiracy to emerge from the mountain range's tomb of Amani. At that time, if you break them one by one, what a dangerous scene the High Elves will face!
However, on the other hand, if used well, it is surrounded by High Elves, and it is also a great strategic location to destroy the trolls.
Based on some vague memories of his past life, Kael'thas cautiously led Liadline to the location of the tomb.
What appeared in front of me was an ordinary, somewhat down-dipping small cave, and the dark cave came from the clammy and cold air, and the grass outside was green, and there was no trace of trampling......
[Is it really here?] 】
Kael'thas ducked to the side, a little stunned, he remembered that there were buildings in the game, yes, it was the kind of high-end tombs. How could it be such a natural landscape as it is now?
Unsurely, he led Liadeline to search around for a while, disappointed that he found nothing else, if Amani's tomb really existed, it could only be in this small hole.
"Your Highness?"
Liadline finally couldn't help but ask, she thought that this highness the prince, who had always been powerful, must have remembered something wrong.
But Kael'thas shook his head, though he wasn't sure. However, gritting his teeth, he finally took the risk and ran to the entrance of the cave to observe carefully.
[These grasses...]
The High Elves' excellent vision soon noticed something unusual, and although there seemed to be no signs of trampling on the surface, Kael'thas was shocked to notice that the grass at the entrance of the cave was very different from the side of it. Yes, they're a little dry, a little dull, and even a little bit bent next to them......
This is really a small difference, but when Kael'thas found out, he didn't dare to stay at all, and hurriedly ran to the side and pulled Liadlin to hide.
"Ding......
"You have completed the quest [Find the Source of the Trolls] and gained 3700 experience points!"
Ding, the system prompt sounded.
"Is this really the case?"
Leadline hid in the grass and bent over, and when she saw Kael'thas cautious, she asked in a surprised whisper.
"Well, someone must have passed through that cave..."Kael'thas nodded, his ears straightened, as if he was worried about someone being around just now, "It's a slight change, but I'm still aware of it..."
"The moisture at the entrance of the cave is drier than the grass next to it, and after the dew this morning, someone should walk through it in the future..."
"And judging from the color shade, there should be a pigment infection on the troll's body, this is not something that can be changed all at once, I guess, the troll's behavior should have been around for a while..."
Kael'thas rolled his eyes, and in this case, it seemed to have some anticipation, sparkling.
"But the grass grows very well, and there will certainly not be many people passing by, and I think that it is probably only the kind of troll thieves we met yesterday that can have such light steps......
In short, Kael'thas thinks he's hit the lucky one. It seems like he can continue to do more......
"Ding......
"You have received the task [Kill the Troll], the geographical limit is the entrance of Amani's tomb, this task can be completed repeatedly!"
The familiar name of the task turned out to be a repetitive task?
Kael'thas was overjoyed, he was just thinking that if the new mission was to kill 10 trolls or something, he would die slowly, after all, trolls can't always appear quickly, and he can't farm infinitely. But I didn't expect it to be a task that can be completed repeatedly, which is a powerful upgrade weapon!
[Brother System... You take care of people too much! 】
As for geographical restrictions or something, Kael'thas can fully understand it. In case there is no limit, he can always level up by killing troll thieves with similar levels for the rest of his life, how boring is this, more boring than killing the trumpet of the three rice bosses!!
"Your Highness, can we do anything?"
Liadline asked in a low voice, smart enough to realize what her master was trying to do.
"Of course, we can wait..."Kael'thas smiled, he looked at the girl in front of him, and said a word she didn't understand: "Wait for the rabbit..."
Yes, Kael'thas decided to stay at the entrance of the cave. He decided to find a way to set a trap at the entrance of the cave and... Kill monsters...
[If only there was an LR now...]
Kael'thas is infinitely nostalgic for the Hunter's Trap in the game, which is the best tool for making thieves visible. But now the High Elves don't have the word hunter, their rangers - not complete hunters.
But our Royal Highness's current behavior is not even good for the ranger to call for help, and now the only person around him who can help with these things is probably the priest Liadrin.
Is... Congratulations......
But because of this, Kael'thas decided to be cautious, he wouldn't let Liadline follow him and really take a big risk.
So in the days that followed, after Kael'thas set a small, indisputably trap, and only took Liadeline with him to observe day after day.
After many days, they finally figured out how often the trolls appeared......
