Chapter 115 - Going All Out (1/2)
Uncommon materials, self-made equipment!!
Liu Hao quickly thought of these two things and then immediately understood Ye Xiu’s purpose. He suddenly laughed wildly: “HA HA HA HA HA, so this is his plan.”
On the other line, Chen Yehui almost threw out his phone in surprise. After steadying himself, he carefully asked: “What do you mean?”
“Hmm, it’s too bad. He’s already been completely seen through by me. With his current state, how does he plan on fighting me? Is he going to start over and try again? Dream on!!” Liu Hao was already talking to himself. Chen Yehui heard this while saying helplessly: “Liu, if there’s nothing else to attend to, then I’m going to hang up!”
“Okay, go back and prepare accounts to use for Boneyard. I need a Spellblade, Sharpshooter, Striker, Blade Master, and a Witch.” Liu Hao ordered.
“Okay.” Chen Yehui replied. Hearing these five cla.s.ses, he was secretly startled. For the previous record, Liu Hao had only picked three cla.s.ses. This time, he had picked five cla.s.ses. Could it be that he was going to bring out five pro-players to set the record for Boneyard? What exactly has he discovered? He was actually starting to put even more energy on this dungeon.
In Happy Internet Cafe, Ye Xiu and Tang Rou continued to level and weren’t doing anything out of the ordinary. Chen Guo had already become numb to it. That morning, after waking up, Ye Xiu unexpectedly went over to look for her.
“Boss, lend me your account for me to play with!” Ye Xiu had come over to borrow her account card.
“What are you planning on doing?” Chen Guo asked.
“Clearing a low-leveled dungeon.” Ye Xiu said.
“Clearing a low-leveled dungeon?” Chen Guo stared blankly. She handed over her Chasing Haze while following along to see what he was planning on doing.
Chasing Haze was an account that had already entered the Heavenly Domain. But that didn’t mean she couldn’t leave the Heavenly Domain. After Ye Xiu had Chasing Haze leave the Heavenly Domain, he immediately rushed over to the low-leveled dungeon Boneyard.
The Boneyard in the old server naturally wasn’t as lively as the tenth server’s Boneyard, but there were still a few players there. Seeing a Level 70 character appear, players immediately filled the screen with messages of “Sister, please carry me.” Quite a few parties had already sent out party invites. This was the benefit of playing in an old server! When comparing leveling speed, leveling in the old server was absolutely faster than leveling in the new server. Even if you didn’t know any friends, there were quite a few high-leveled accounts that specially came to sell their services to carry low-leveled accounts.
Ye Xiu obviously ignored these players. He immediately had Chasing Haze enter the dungeon. A Level 70 account wouldn’t have any problems clearing this low-leveled dungeon, not to mention that Ye Xiu was the one controlling it. But after entering the dungeon, Ye Xiu wasn’t in a hurry to fight. He had Chasing Haze run this way and that until eventually, a mob of monsters followed behind her b.u.t.t. It looked as if he were flirting with these monsters.
“What are you doing?” Chen Guo didn’t understand.
“Oh, I’m just looking at this dungeon. My account doesn’t have any entries left.” Ye Xiu explained, while playing. Chasing Haze unleashed a few skills and the mob of monsters were wiped clean. Following after, Ye Xiu fished out a notebook from his pocket.
Chen Guo was familiar with this notebook. If you took a left turn after leaving the Internet Cafe, there was a shop that sold these for 3 RMB each. Once the notebook was flipped open, Chen Guo looked at it and saw that there were already a few notes messily written in the first few pages. On them, there were even a few indistinguishable things drawn on. Ye Xiu flipped to the last page and then immediately began scribbling.
“You’re taking notes?” Chen Guo felt refreshed.
“I’m researching it in preparation for setting a new dungeon record.” Ye Xiu said.
Chen Guo stared blankly and didn’t know what to say. Ye Xiu’s concentration and seriousness made her feel moved. She also liked Glory. She was also a considerably loyal fan. But for Ye Xiu, she could tell that he had a completely different att.i.tude towards the game. She was playing the game, but for Ye Xiu, Chen Guo suddenly felt that the word “playing” couldn’t be used to describe him.
Chen Guo couldn’t help but think of nine years ago when she took the Internet Cafe under her care. She was completely surrounded by gazes that doubted her, though it was true that she knew nothing. From that day onwards, she soaked in the Internet Cafe and little by little paid attention to her customer’s needs. She continuously improved the Internet Cafe’s environment and tried out all sorts of methods to draw in more customers. Every night, she calculated that day’s customer flow and looked for patterns.
The her at that time was similar to the current Ye Xiu: concentrated, serious, and spared no efforts. It was extremely exhausting, but when she saw how her Internet Cafe was doing better and better every day, she felt that much more satisfied. The current Internet Cafe had a steady customer flow and the income that came in far exceeded the income at that time. But how long had it been since she had felt that sort of satisfaction?
Chen Guo was somewhat envious of Ye Xiu. But besides envy, there was also some sympathy. To put so much effort into the game, yet to be kicked out of the pro-scene, how sad! Chen Guo suddenly felt her heart ache. She couldn’t help but think of the recently retired Ye Qiu. At the time of his retirement, the person suffering the most had to be the person himself, no? It truly was a cruel word.
The pen tip scribbled across the notebook. Ye Xiu didn’t notice the change in Chen Guo behind him. Chen Guo didn’t disturb him any further and silently walked away in grief.
Ye Xiu continued to use Chasing Haze to explore Boneyard. A high-leveled account brought along with it a lot of conveniences that low-leveled accounts didn’t have. The notes written on the notebook increased more and more. Unwittingly, the run had been completed. Ye Xiu didn’t stop. He had Chasing Haze enter the dungeon again. Except this time, he spent more time playing and less time taking notes.
After three runs, Chasing Haze’s entries had all been used up. Ye Xiu harvested quite a bit from this. He logged out of the game in satisfaction and returned the account card to Chen Guo.
“How was it?” Chen Guo asked.
“Pretty good.” Ye Xiu smiled.
“Okay, you can do it!” Chen Guo said.
“What?” Ye Xiu didn’t hear her clearly.
“You can do it.” Chen Guo repeated.
“I didn’t hear wrong did I?” Ye Xiu widened his eyes. He had put so much effort in the low-leveled dungeon. Wasn’t she supposed to look down on him? She was cheering him on right now. Moreover, her tone seemed a little…….gentle? Thinking of this word, Ye Xiu couldn’t help but s.h.i.+ver. This word seemed a little wrong to describe Chen Guo.
