Cheating

As they talked about his training, Lu Li learned a lot from the conversation.

Firstly, the Thief was definitely not Garona's student because his master's name was Mekgineer Thermaplugg. When Lu Li had completed the Zaetar Tower mission, Thermaplugg was the Gnome that he had seen.

If Lu Li had not passed his trial, he would never have found out about this.

The Thief's name was Jeramo and he already had three advanced skills. One of his most powerful was the advanced Shadow Step, which was Mekgineer's signature move.

He also had an upgraded Ambush. If Jeramo had chosen to Ambush him from the back instead of fighting him head-on from the very start, Lu Li's lifeless body would have been lying on the ground.

The last was an upgraded Cut Throat, which made Lu Li laugh out loud.

The idea of a short Gnomish Thief trying his best to reach someone's throat was hilarious to him.

Jeramo asked about the outside world and Lu Li smiled as he talked about his countless adventures.
