Asleep’s reply to him was another dagger attack that stabbed accurately at the other side of his waist.

How could Wei Xiao let him succeed twice? The elven storm hunter stepped lightly on raindrops and bypassed this basic attack.

Now, there was no more time for them to type and chatter. Both players, who had maxed out their skills and equipment, tangled together and fought endlessly.

The hidden thief’s blade was fierce and accurate, while the storm hunter dodged easily, sending in arrows from afar like flying a kite and causing pain to the hidden thief bit by bit.

They were both holding back on their combos and relying on just hand speed and micro-operations.

Now, a solo game wouldn’t take too long to finish. One or two minutes was the limit for such seamless operations, and even for players as talented as they were, they wouldn’t be able to hold on past three minutes.

The situation became increasingly intense. The storm hunter moved half a second faster than the hidden thief as Wei Xiao pushed the limits of the storm hunter and stepped on raindrops––

The rain and fog that covered the sky suddenly condensed and every drop of water turned into a mirror that reflected the storm hunter’s figure and confused the enemy’s sight.

Although Asleep never used the storm hunter, he was very familiar with this talent. As a jungler, he had to understand all the micro-operations of all the c-positions. Even so, Wei Xiao’s storm hunter was very different this time.

He gathered his thoughts and used his dagger to break through three illusions before going straight for the storm hunter.

His hit landed!

The hidden thief could stack up marks while it remained in stealth, and they would greatly increase the damage of his basic attack.

Based on his fully buffed up dagger, there was a 100% certainty that he could take away the storm hunter’s life.

Asleep’s attention was fully focused on the elf’s figure. He would absolutely never give him the slightest opportunity to slip away.

The black-streaked dagger stabbed into the storm hunter’s body. Special effects burst out, and blood…

Asleep’s pupils contracted: Oh no!

There was a bang.

There was no blood that gushed out with the special effects. Instead, it dispersed into water droplets and fog.

This was another phantom, not the storm hunter’s main body.

Whish, whish. Flying arrows that held a cold aura flew over, aimed straight at the hidden thief’s face.

Asleep retreated as he blocked, but the angle of the three arrows was tricky, and he was only able to block one of them.

Two arrows landed with splashes of blood, and Asleep’s HP plummeted.

Wei Xiao revealed himself, and another arrow of rain flew over, glistening with water.

Asleep’s eyes were sharp, and he could see that there was a red light on the arrow––this wasn’t an exaggeration, but rather a small technique from within the game. Some equipment held passive effects, such as one of the marksmen’s maxed equipment, the blood devil’s longbow, which had a chance to trigger a blood explosion. When hit by such an arrow, the hidden thief would fall to the ground and be unable to get back up again even if it was at more than at half health, let alone in its current precarious state.

He had to escape!

Asleep’s nerves were taut, and he felt a shiver surge up from within.

This was the charm of Glory. Even if his body was outside the canyon, his soul was immersed in the battlefield.

The hidden thief used flash to retreat and avoid the storm hunter’s frontal assault, but unfortunately, his HP was too low and even getting scratched by the storm hunter’s arrow was enough to ensure his death.

Defeat.

This scarlet script announcing defeat appeared on Asleep’s screen.

Solo games were now this direct and simple. Death meant that the game was over.

The two of them returned to the game room. Wei Xiao sent out a message, “You’re not in good condition.”

Asleep: “……”

Wei Xiao: “Go to sleep, I won’t bully you anymore.”

Asleep: “…… Again.”

Wei Xiao turned on voice chat, “Are you really nervous?”

Asleep: “……”

Wei Xiao changed the room mode, switching it from a solo room to a team room. “Double queue.”

Asleep hesitated for a moment.

Wei Xiao: “Hurry up, I’m going downstairs to eat in a bit.”

He was going to go and eat with the captain after he finished his morning run.

Asleep clicked on the ready button.

Wei Xiao had turned on voice chat, so Asleep turned his on as well, but he’d always chosen to type to people even with his mic on. “I’m not nervous.”

Wei Xiao: “Oh.”

Asleep explained it again, “There’s nothing to be nervous about.”

Wei Xiao hit the nail on the head, “Then why are you out of sorts?”

After trying to put up with it for a moment, Sleep God was unable to hold back and asked him, “How could you tell?”

It was true that he was in a bad mood, but it had nothing to do with being nervous.

However, basically no one else could understand his emotions other than Cong Yi. How was Quiet able to detect it across an internet cable?

Wei Xiao started acting up again. “Oh-ho, you really are nervous!”

Asleep: “……………………” He didn’t want to talk to him anymore!

The two of them were matched into a game right then and entered the game.

Asleep and Wei Xiao were different. Ever since he’d started playing Glory, Asleep had only liked to play the jungler position. It was to the point where it should be said that he only liked the thief profession.

Wei Xiao also liked thieves, but he liked all-rounder kings even more. Oh, there was no need to doubt this; his boyfriend was an all-rounder king.

Wei Xiao understood Brother Sleep. “What do you want to play?” He was in the first position and could help Asleep snatch the jungler position.

Asleep: “Shadow thief.”

Wei Xiao’s mouth said, “Okay.” But then he locked in the berserker thief.

Asleep: “???”

Wei Xiao’s tone was very righteous. “What do you want to do with the shadow thief? Laozi’s already letting you take the jungler position, yet you want to play with my man in front of me?”

Brother Sleep fell silent.

Reality proved that sleeping was really attractive. Why had he passed up on it to come out to play games with beasts?!

Wei Xiao took the butterfly warlock. It was the little fairy girl from Zhuang Zhou’s story: The Butterfly Dream, and she was a famous beauty within the canyon.

As soon as Wei Xiao entered the game, he asked, “Do I look good?”

In the most recent game update, the butterfly warlock had gotten a new skin. It was an ethereal fairy dress and was surrounded by a circle of small butterflies that floated about everywhere. It was very ethereal.

The female fans were quite satisfied with this skin, and they all said that they had to obtain it. Yet as a result, the game acted inhumanely and tossed the skin into the prize pool.

Compared with various RPG games, Glory wasn’t that much of a pay-to-win game. After all, spending money was of little significance, and players wouldn’t become stronger just because they’d spent money. So, the balance of the game had always been very good.

However, Glory also needed to make money. How? Naturally, it was through selling skins.

Couple skins, bravery skins, epic skins, legendary skins, and even divine skins.

These divine skins couldn’t be obtained by simply spending money. They had to be drawn from the prize pool.
