Chapter 504 - Unending News (1/2)

Even though Ye Xiu didn’t have a cellphone, he still frequently used QQ as a communication tool. When he had retired, many people had messaged him, but he ignored all of them. Back then, Mo Qiang had asked him about it too and, now that he had been contacted, he used this opportunity to chat.

“It’s quite a long story. Let’s talk about it when I’m less busy!” Ye Xiu avoided the subject.

“Are you really planning on creating your own team?” Mo Qiang asked.

“I have thought about doing so.” Ye Xiu said.

“So this is to help raise money for it?” Mo Qiang asked.

“Not entirely.” Ye Xiu replied.

“It looks like you’re not having an easy time. This bro won’t take half then. I’ll just take profit from two of the accounts.” Mo Qiang said.

“Thanks!” Ye Xiu didn’t refuse.

“I say we just have those five accounts party up and then kill them together.” Mo Qiang clearly wasn’t very insistent on chatting and quickly returned back to discussing business.

“I’ll leave it up to you then!”

“Alright! Just wait for the money to arrive!”

With the deal completed, Ye Xiu turned his head. Chen Guo was still beside him and had a complicated expression on her face.

“Hey, it isn’t easy starting from scratch.” Ye Xiu said.

Chen Guo was startled. She felt as if her heart had been p.r.i.c.ked again. Ye Xiu took out a cigarette and told her he was going out for a smoke.

Chen Guo went back to her game. Right now, quite a few people were talking about the news. Some people just randomly sent out coordinates, saying Lord Grim was here or that Lord Grim was there. They were making fun of the guilds. Ye Xiu’s Lord Grim wasn’t even online.

Not just Lord Grim, but Deception and Loulan Slash’s five open accounts weren’t there either. The players could only shout loudly. If their targets weren’t online, what could they do?

The guilds were obviously paying close attention to them. Them not being online was a success for them in a way. After all, their goal was to stop Ye Qiu from levelling.

Ye Xiu finished smoking his cigarette and returned. He logged into the game. On a different computer, Chen Guo’s Chasing Haze received a notification indicating a friend had logged on.

“You’re still going to keep playing?” Chen Guo was astonished.

“Why not?” Ye Xiu asked.

“Be careful!” Chen Guo said.

“Yeah, I know, but I’m only going to leveling areas without many people. I’ll take a look at the circ.u.mstances and see whether or not there’ll be people wandering around hoping to catch sight of me.” Ye Xiu said.

“I imagine there’ll be quite a few people doing that.” Chen Guo said. She understood a player’s mind. Five hundred yuan wasn’t much, but it wasn’t a small amount either. One of the main purposes of the game was to strengthen one’s character. If the five hundred yuan was spent on a piece of equipment or an item, it would definitely be able to purchase a top quality item. There would be players who would try to test their luck.

“Mm, if it doesn’t look good, I’ll run.” Ye Xiu said.

“If you really need an unspecialized account, you can just look for someone to level it up for you. It wouldn’t take very long.” Chen Guo said. She understood that Lord Grim himself wasn’t worth much. It was mostly the Silver weapon that was valuable to them. Apart from a few bored players or collectors, there probably wouldn’t be any other unspecialized characters out there. However, a studio wouldn’t care. As long as you needed one, they would level one for you. It was just a matter of how much you paid. All he had to do was transfer the Silver weapon to the new account and character. If he did that, wouldn’t he be able to avoid all of the hunting and grinding? Lord Grim could also be used to earn some money too. This was what Chen Guo was thinking.

“Ha ha, I’ll do it if I don’t have any other options!” Ye Xiu said.

Chen Guo heard this and knew he had already thought about it before, so she didn’t say anymore.

“Where are you?” Chen Guo asked. After Ye Xiu told her his location, Chen Guo immediately had Chasing Haze head over.

As she moved towards his location, Chen Guo discovered a few players moving in a similar direction as her. It seemed like quite a few had noticed that Lord Grim had come online. Everyone knew Lord Grim’s level too. He could only move about in the Level 55 leveling area, so they immediately headed towards it.

“It looks like quite a few players are heading towards the Level 55 leveling area.” Chen Guo said to Ye Xiu.

“Ha ha, the leveling area is so large. They won’t be able to find me so easily.” Ye Xiu said as he continued to level up. He was still in Wilderness Town, a Level 55 area.

As he killed monsters, Ye Xiu looked for a place convenient for observing the surroundings. He didn’t move around randomly either. If he didn’t see anyone around, he would stay there. If he moved around randomly, it was more likely that he would b.u.mp into someone.
