By the time the farm area became a part of the Alliance’s territory, the gold mine that Lu Li and Water Fairy occupied before would have already changed hands.
Afterwards, Lu Li and Water Fairy went to the sawmill again, and managed to occupy it without a hitch. Then, they proceeded over to a blacksmith’s shop and joined in there. With great power, they disparaged the previously deadlocked battle over the shop, and managed to take that place without a hitch too…
But in the end, this was still useless.
Teamwork was very important on the battlefield. If someone tried to be a hero all by themselves, it wouldn’t necessarily have much influence on the whole situation.
They left first, but behind them, some Horde players ran over and recaptured their resource point. On this side, the Alliance were fighting disorderly, and Lu Li couldn’t be bothered to direct them. After all, their aim was just to kill people.


They looked on as the amount of Horde resources kept increasing. Very soon, they reached 1500. Generally speaking, once that amount was reached, it was very difficult to recapture. Furthermore, the Horde’s opponents were just a disorderly rabble of people. However, the Horde weren’t happy at all, as the two Thieves were still casually roaming around near their territory.
The Horde had, on average, been killed three or four times per person. There was one player who was most unlucky and had been killed eight times. It was probably because they were killed not long after they revived.
When it came time for the final results, the number one rank belonged to an anonymous player, whose occupation was a Thief, and had 24 kills. The second player had a few less kills, but still achieved 18. In an average game in the Arathi Basin battlefield, these figures were quite rare.
In a normal situation, 7 or 8 kills would already be considered good.
When the Horde players thought about these figures and their own power, they finally found a reason to console themselves. It must have been the profession’s special powers, otherwise, there was no way to kill so many people in a team.
All these attacks, struggles, guesses – all of these things didn’t bother the odd couple at all. A true hero didn’t look back to see the explosion.
They attacked a few times just to kill as many as they could. In the end, they couldn’t even be bothered to hoist up their flag.
The Alliance side wasn’t a complete mess though. Lu Li and Water Fairy very soon bumped into a orderly, standard ten-person team. The leader of this small team had wanted to take Warsong Canyon and Arathi. In the case of Arathi, this team still needed to group together another five people. Naturally, their chance of victory was not very high.
This time, the commander of the small Alliance team saw two level 60 Thieves. Although they were anonymous and the commander couldn’t see their names, level 60 players would only be listed on the queue for level 60 battlefields. To some extent, he was quite relieved.
The occupation of Thief was suited to fighting on the battlefield. At the very least, they wouldn’t be a burden on anyone.



The Thieves from team 3 have opened up the resources in the house. Girl Thieves, go to the Sawmill, and the remaining three, go to the Gold Mine…
the commander of the small team ordered.
This was considered a standard way of play. Many teams without a commander would also play like this.
However, very soon after, the commander began to shout,
You two Thieves in team 5, what are you doing?! Didn’t you hear what I told you to do?

Lu Li and Water Fairy didn’t pay attention to him; they both went straight to the Gold Mine. With their horses, they were very quick. By the time others got to the Gold Mine, there was only a corpse left there. The reason why there was only a corpse left was because the Horde had not prioritized the Gold Mine and only sent one person to have a look. If there was no one there, they could occupy it. If there was someone there, they could slow them down a little.
It was a shame that this Thief hadn’t decided if he was going to attack or not. His opponent came up to him, grabbed him and killed him.
The flag at the Gold Mine hadn’t been raised yet, so the people who were sent there had an easy job.

Where did those two Thieves go?!
the commander continued to shout while he was fighting in the central area of the blacksmith’s shop.
Different commanders had different styles. Evidently, this commander was the type who especially liked to shout. This was partly because he had a bad temper, but it was also because he didn’t have enough confidence.
By this time, Lu Li and Water Fairy had already ventured out to the farm and killed the two people who were guarding it.
This time, the players behind them finally saw them in action.


They were fierce and cruel, especially the female Thief, who was working under the cooperation of the male Thief. She brutally killed a Berserker and a Priest who was standing in a group.
A Priest with a Berserker could be considered a perpetual motion machine of the battlefield. Even a group of three or four people might not be able to take care of them. However, it looked like the whole time, they barely had a chance to retaliate.
After being intervened by the Berserker, the Priest was stunned until he died.
A Berserker without a Priest was at best a like a thick-skinned meat bun. Water Fairy very quickly stabbed him to death.
Lu Li realised that this young lady he fancied was actually rather violent. It seemed that the more people she killed, the happier she was. This was a little unsettling; what if she was in a bad mood?.
Lu Li had heard that Water Fairy had received Elite training since she was little, so her combat abilities were well-honed. Even a few ordinary people wouldn’t be a match for her.
Inexplicably, before his eyes, flashed a few images of his own bruised, battered face. Immediately, Lu Li didn’t feel so good.
At this, the players behind them who were raising the flag and finishing up, saw the male Thief, who was clearly being riled up. After this, they cleaned up the Sawmill, then went to clean up the Blacksmith’s shop.

Today we encountered experts. You all have to be careful in raising the flag and protecting the resource point. We’ll follow them; keep following them all the way home.

The commander didn’t possess much in terms of his ability. When going somewhere, he just kept to the road. When commanding, all he could do was shout, but at least he knew his limitations.


With Lu Li and Water Fairy there, they completely unbalanced the otherwise evenly-matched teams.
However, it was pretty rare to come across such experts.
Although they were anonymous, no one doubted the identity of Lu Li and Water Fairy. Female competitors who were Thieves were very rare, so one playing together with a male Thief was even rarer. Everyone may have been subconsciously thinking about an odd couple, but their own assumptions were very quickly overturned.
Lu Li had activated the Dragon Slayer’s Roar, and everyone knew that he would definitely go and reclaim another new Instance Dungeon.
After attacking a few times, Lu Li took a rest. Wandering commanded a few rounds, and like Lu Li, he made it to the second stage. It then came time for the third group to enter the Instance Dungeon.
Drizzle Court’s commander helped Sky Moon lead the attempt, so Lu Li didn’t have to enter the Instance Dungeon.
By the time Lu Li entered the Instance Dungeon again, everyone was already quite well-acquainted with this Boss.
All of these teams entering the Instance Dungeon were being livestreamed on all sides. They all gradually came to understand their own responsibilities when fighting against the little Red Dragon, but there were still some errors that were easy to commit.
They saw how others fought, then went to try it out themselves. In the first stage at least, this worked out alright.
However, on this particular day, they played until the game’s time ended, and only just barely made to the third stage. What was unexpected was that the first time they made it to third stage wasn’t with the first group, but rather the second group that Wandering commanded.


Alternating commanders not only didn’t decrease efficiency, but it also allowed Lu Li to get a better view of the battle too.
After all, everyone’s commanding style was different, and everyone had their own advantages.
When they were taking turns to rest, Lu Li and Water Fairy had went back and forth from the battlefield dozens of times. A post came up on the forum, criticising the competitors to stop behaving like idiots and stop bullying the newbies. Their abuse extended even to the cute girls, saying that they deserved to be single their whole life.
