Chapter 56 Blue Rain's Captain
"Has the compensation come through yet, Brother Ye?" The next day, Lu Chen, who had just finished feeding Ye Xiu, sat down next to him and made a joke with a smile.
"Not yet, but Blue River asked about the price of the strategy guide." Ye Xiu said cheerfully, a cigarette dangling from his lips.
"Sold out?" Lu Chen raised an eyebrow.
"Hmm, they've probably given up," Ye Xiu said with a smile. "Shall we continue tonight?"
"Sister Xiaorou and Baozi should be quite happy, but in that case, our progress might fall behind." Lu Chen sighed. In fact, only they knew that this kind of attack on the elite teams of various guilds couldn't be done for long. If they insisted on holding on, they would have to stop after two or three days.
Although killing them once would result in significant losses for the enemy, our side would lose two nights of leveling time. Moreover, it's not convenient for solo players to switch accounts, so Lord Grim definitely won't move.
"Well, we can only wait for this year's Christmas event and see if we can make up for it." Ye Xiu sighed softly.
The Christmas event is the first major event after the opening of the new Glory server, and the rewards are usually very generous, making it a good time to catch up.
"Oh right, it seems Zhongcaotang wasn't involved either? They didn't mention buying the guide?" Lu Chen was just about to put on his headphones when he suddenly remembered something and asked.
"Uh—" Ye Xiu's expression was somewhat complicated: "I asked Che Qianzi, and he said that we haven't gathered enough materials yet, so it'll be two months tonight."
Lu Chenqian chuckled twice and then fell silent.
The same thing happened again, and after another night, the major guilds finally couldn't take it anymore. By morning, Night Crossing the Cold Pool sent a message to Raising a Cup to Invite the Moon.
Crossing the Cold Pool at Night: [Hehe.]
Raising a glass to the moon: [Mmm.]
Night Crossing the Cold Pool: [Um—Brother Inviting the Moon, can we talk?]
Raising a glass to the moon: [???]
Raising a glass to the moon: [I have a partner! Don't come near me!]
After a long silence, Ye Du Han Tan typed out a dry line: 【Haha, Brother Yao Yue is so humorous! Um, we wanted you to act as a bridge and talk to Jun Mo Xiao about some minor frictions that happened these past two days. ————】
Lu Chen rolled his eyes: [So you're just going to bypass me like that?]
There was another long silence on Ye Du Han Tan's side: [Then there must be some benefits for Brother Yao Yue too, right?]
Lu Chen chuckled, sent the screenshot to Ye Xiu, and pinched his girlfriend's cheek: "Alright, Xiao Rou, no need to block the dungeon entrance anymore, we can leave now, they've surrendered."
"Aren't you going to play anymore?" Tang Rou was taken aback, her words tinged with regret.
Tang Rou's skill level has improved rapidly. Her understanding of the game is now close to that of the elite teams of major guilds. She knows at least the advantages and disadvantages of each class, and her skills are even better than those of the elite teams. The friendly exchanges with many elite team members in the past two days have also benefited Tang Rou a lot. Now that the other side has suddenly convinced them that they don't want to play anymore, Tang Rou is not very happy.
After all, although Tang Rou didn't mind losing, she still wanted to win.
She couldn't beat the main and reserve professional players of Tiny Herb, but playing against the elite team players gave her a rare experience of being evenly matched and having back-and-forth battles.
"Why are they so weak-willed?!" Tang Rou pouted and said, making Lu Chen feel a little itchy inside, so he quickly looked away.
In the main city's safe zone, Lord Grim and all the guild leaders' accounts were stuck there, unable to be heard speaking, probably because they had team voice chat enabled. Lu Chen wasn't in a hurry, since he had already entrusted his part entirely to Ye Xiu.
With Brother Ye's methods, we can't possibly lose out, right?
Lu Chen checked the time, then looked at his girlfriend who showed no signs of sleepiness, ran out to buy several breakfasts, distributed some to the early shift internet cafe managers, and then happily went to his girlfriend to show off his achievement.
Not long after they finished eating, Ye Xiu walked over, casually turned on the machine next to Lu Chen, and cheerfully swiped his card to log in again: "Little Lu, let's go to the arena."
"Huh?" Lu Chen was slightly taken aback. "What do they mean by this?"
"Oh, it's not the guild. They said they'd give us time to think it over and would probably let us know tonight. This is just to deal with that annoying guy."
"Annoying guy? Who is it?" Lu Chen was slightly taken aback.
"Huang Shaotian, huh?" Ye Xiu sighed softly.
"Ye Xiu! Come here for a second!" Chen Guo shouted from the other end.
"Okay, coming right away!" Ye Xiu stood up somewhat helplessly. "The room number is all zeros, and the password is also all zeros. Someone's coming to check on us soon, so I'll go take a look first!"
"Hmm? Okay————" Although he didn't quite understand, Lu Chen still ran over, booked a room, and waited there. The people who arrived before Lord Grim were a swordsman he had never seen before and a sorcerer.
One Sword Splits the Heavens: "Wow, that's a pretty cool ID! Where's Ye Xiu, the Little Lu? Why isn't he here yet? Are you going to stand me up again? Our captain is here today!"
"Oh, good morning, Young Master Huang. Have you eaten yet?" Lu Chen didn't quite hear him, so he could only greet him politely.
"I've eaten, it's actually getting late. This is usually when we get up early to train. As professional athletes, we need to maintain good physical condition, otherwise we'll get things like cervical spondylosis and tenosynovitis."
"What did you eat?" Lu Chen asked subconsciously.
"The dim sum we had here was pretty good. I'll take you to try it sometime when you come to visit. Your H city is really a food wasteland; the only decent food there is all out-of-town cuisine. But—"
"Are you full?" Lu Chen nodded.
"Are you just giving me the runaround?" Huang Shaotian asked after a moment of silence.
"Soup is good—cough cough, no, not at all." Lu Chen subconsciously wanted to refute, but his girlfriend laughed first, and some laughter came from across the table.
"Ahem, um, Young Master Huang, who is this warlock brother?"
"Our captain, Yu Wenzhou, the captain of Blue Rain, so you still weren't listening to me, were you?!"
Lu Chen quickly blocked Huang Shaotian and politely greeted Yu Wenzhou: "Hello, Captain Yu. I've heard Brother Ye mention you often."
"There probably won't be anything nice to say, right?" The other person seemed to know Ye Xiu quite well; judging from Yu Wenzhou's voice, he was a very gentle person. "Like, something about being clumsy?"
[Hahaha, this kid really knows Ye Xiu's character perfectly. No wonder they're kindred spirits!]
Su Muqiu couldn't help but laugh.
"Same kind, is that alright?" Lu Chen smiled.
"By the way, where's Ye Qiu?"
"The boss called him over earlier, so he went ahead," Lu Chen smiled. "After all, he's a network administrator now—"
"That suits him quite well," Yu Wenzhou asked with a smile. "Want to play a round first? Waiting all the time must be pretty boring, isn't it?"
Lu Chen was taken aback for a moment: "Okay—"
