Chapter 134 - Tour Group (1/2)
The recording was naturally in the recording character’s perspective. Everything was automatic. The camera could be zoomed in and out, but it wasn’t possible to rotate it. Qiao Yifan’s recording started from when his Ashen Moon rushed forward to Lord Grim blocking him to being surrounded and then attacked. These sections were naturally a mess. Apart from seeing his hards.h.i.+ps and difficulties, nothing else could really be seen. On the side, Xiao Yun let out a sigh of relief. His death from Vanis.h.i.+ng Step hadn’t been recorded.
Who knew that w.a.n.g Jiexi’s eyes and hands were so precise. He repeatedly clicked on the screen to pause the recording. He wasn’t looking at Ashen Moon being attacked on all sides, but rather at Lord Grim, where Cloudy Heavens was being hit in the air.
Once, twice, thrice……
Whole body, half body, a third of the body.
In the end, Xiao Yun still lowered his head in embarra.s.sment. He hadn’t been recorded, but he could still be seen in this way.
w.a.n.g Jiexi didn’t say anything. This section of the recording had ended when Ashen Moon escaped from the encirclement along with Gao Yingjie’s Weeping Crow. In the second section, the scene began somewhat choppy. Qiao Yifan was clearly having Ashen Moon hide and then occasionally have him take a peek outside. Once the fighting started, the forgotten Qiao Yifan had a good view of the entire scene up until Zhou Yebai’s White Night Black Day was killed. Only after his roar did Ashen Moon move up and begin fighting randomly.
Everyone nervously stood behind w.a.n.g Jiexi, watching the recording. They all had their heads down waiting for the scolding! But w.a.n.g Jiexi didn’t say anything. He instead got up, patted Qiao Yifan, and then left.
Xiao Yun and the others all hesitated. They didn’t know what to do and in the end, returned to their computers to continue practicing. This morning went by as if their bodies and souls were separated.
That afternoon, the vice-captain Deng Fusheng came back with account cards. Most of them were received from Herb Garden with the cla.s.ses matching the main roster’s cla.s.ses.
Club Tiny Herb, including w.a.n.g Jiexi, had a total of six players in the main roster with five players in the reserve team, for a total of eleven players. In the current league, this 6+5 set-up was the most common arrangement.
Unless there was a match that day, the night time was free for the players, though there was no lack of hard working players that would continue to practice on their own. However, today, since the team captain had announced an activity for them, Tiny Herb’s player gathered at the practice room. After swiping their account cards, they all entered the tenth server together. Everyone’s expressions were somewhat odd. For their team to gather in the game, they had done it before in the Heavenly Domain, but never in a normal server.
“Our target, the player Lord Grim. Everyone, don’t be careless. It’s very likely that this player is the retired Ye Qiu.” w.a.n.g Jiexi announced the purpose of their added practice.
Once everyone heard this, they all became interested. They began discussing amongst each other. There were some in-game that had searched for his ID and then immediately reported to w.a.n.g Jiexi: “Captain, he’s not online!”
“He’ll definitely come. Everyone, first get familiar with your character. They’re all low-leveled characters that haven’t yet reached Level 30, so you guys aren’t used to them, right?” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.
Xiao Yun and the others were flushed in embarra.s.sment. Was captain mocking them? Was he? Or was he not? It was impossible to figure out what G.o.d Jiexi was thinking.
At around 8 o’clock, Lord Grim finally came online. The team members immediately informed w.a.n.g JIexi. They then asked Herb Garden for Lord Grim’s whereabouts.
Plantago Seed was also hesitant. After yesterday, Tiny Herb’s vice-captain had personally come for accounts cards today. After counting all the cards he had given, he found that they added up to Tiny Herb’s entire team. Was Team Tiny Herb going to tour around in the tenth server? Plantago Seed held his breath, alarmed. But there was no one to speak to. Because these account cards were only used for special cases, they were quite secretive, and definitely couldn’t be taken out and talked about casually.
Tonight, he saw all of the characters come online one by one. Plantago Seed didn’t dare greet them and could only pace about, hoping that he would accidentally b.u.mp into Tiny Herb’s tour group. Unfortunately, Tiny Herb’s players were currently wandering around on their own and weren’t grouped together.
Only until 8 o’clock, when Lord Grim went online, did some immediately ask him for Lord Grim’s location.
“Lord Grim again?” Plantago Seed stared blankly. Who exactly was this Lord Grim? The entire Tiny Herb team was going to run over just to see him? Is he an alien? Plantago Seed thought while asking the guild to pay attention to Lord Grim.
After replying to them, he ran over to where Lord Grim was located too.
Desolate Land. This was where Herb Garden’s players had seen Lord Grim.
If it was just for leveling, then Ye Xiu would have definitely went to a higher leveled area to level. However, he still had a few Level 28 quests, which had to be completed in Desolate Land.
Mission description? Background story? These had all stayed the same for ten years. Let alone Ye Xiu, even Plantago Seed wouldn’t read these. For experienced players, quests were only done for the rewards. And since some quests were long and stupid. They would only do these quests if they rewarded attribute points or skill books, those types of necessary items. Players would then impatiently do the prerequisite quests for those types of quests. Ye Xiu was currently at Desolate Land to do these prerequisite quests.
Ye Xiu had used an online guide as a reference. He used the simplest route, where several quests could be done at once. Killing monsters, looking for people, looking for items, delivering items to people, etc. would all be turned in at once. In this way, the quests would be completed quickly.
“Lord Grim is at Desolate Land. He’s alone.” After asking for the circ.u.mstances, Tiny Herb’s team members reported the info to w.a.n.g Jiexi.
“To Desolate Land.” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.
The entire team of eleven flooded in towards Desolate Land. Vice-captain Deng Fusheng, who was sitting beside w.a.n.g Jiexi, was rus.h.i.+ng over, while saying: “Even if he really is Ye Xiu, if we all go at once, won’t that be a little excessive?
w.a.n.g Jiexi turned his head and looked him in the eye, calmly saying: “Have the main force go duel him.”
“Take turns?” Deng Fusheng said.
“Group compet.i.tion. We’re eleven, he’s one.” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.
