Chapter 435 – Whoever Moves First Loses
The King's Avatar
Chen Guoâs words made the two of them cough blood. Even though those words were very reasonable, the two had some inside information. How could Happy Internet Cafeâs experts be random customers? They had to be inside the Internet Cafe, preparing to create a team with Ye Qiu. This boss was clearly lying to them.
The two were thinking in this way, but on the surface, they couldnât express that âwe see through you.â They could only sigh regretfully: âThen do you know when these brother experts usually come?â
âI havenât really paid attention to that!â
Chen Guo really looked like she was telling the truth. Who knew how many people had been duped by her like this, not understanding how fearsome boss Chen was. Right now, her expression looked completely innocent , the two spies were suddenly entranced by her. They felt as if this sister couldnât say anything wrong and they must have made a mistake.
Luckily, the two quickly had reason take over and after regaining their composure, they calmly spoke: âAre the computers ready?â
âArea 14, Number 15.â Chen Guo pointed to where the computers were located.
If the experts werenât there, they could only wait, while talking with the other Internet Cafe guests to see if they knew anything.
The majority of the people in the Internet Cafe played Glory and there were many like-minded people. If they wanted to, making Glory friends in the Internet Cafe was very easy. However, nowadays, computers were essential to households, so those who came to the Internet Cafe were usually already in a group with three or five other friends. As a result, there werenât too many who would actively look for friends when they were already with a group of friends.
These two spies had come with a different purpose though, so they were different. After sitting down, the people to the left and right of them were playing Glory. The two quickly logged into the game and looked at their neighbors with a smile. The two took the opportunity to go and chat with them. Unfortunately, the their neighbors werenât frequent customers of Happy Internet Cafe. They had simply come on a whim. It would be hard to get any useful information from these type of people.
Thus, as the two played Glory, they would look towards Happy Internet Cafeâs entrance to see if those four experts would appear. But after sitting for an entire day, there were no signs of them appearing.
Two of those four fake experts were Happy Internet Cafe employees. If Chen Guo didnât want them to appear, all Chen Guo needed to do was tell them not to appear. The other two might not be her employees, but because they had already changed to Ye Xiuâs side, as supporters, they would cooperate in earnest.
The two spies werenât able to get anything out of today. The two couldnât just live in the Internet Cafe, so when it was time to go, they could only pay the bills and leave.
âDo you know these two?â Meanwhile, Chen Guo had secretly taken a picture of them and gave them to Ye Xiu to look at.
âOf course I donât know them! If they sent two people who I recognized, wouldnât that just be asking to be exposed?â Ye Xiu didnât even look.
âOh, thatâs true......â Chen Guo said, âThese two will definitely be coming often.â
âWhatâs wrong with having two fixed customers?â Ye Xiu smiled.
âWith their eyes shifting about, I really want to treat them like little thieves and beat them up.â After knowing their identities, Chen Guo couldnât like them. Any action they did made Chen Guo want to vomit.
âDonât be in such a rush. Let them suffer!â Ye Xiu didnât care.
âWhat about Loulan Slash! Is there any news from them?â Chen Guo asked.
âThere hasnât been any for now.â Ye Xiu said.
âItâs been so long! Why are they so slow!â
âSlow? Itâs only been two days!â Ye Xiu said.
âHow is that not slow.â
âThis isnât just about a game. This is a business deal and a gamble. Wouldnât you want to be careful?â Ye Xiu said.
âTch!â Chen Guo clearly didnât care.
The two spies went to QQ and reported the situation to Chen Yehui. There was nothing Chen Yehui could do. In the game, they had watched for an entire day again, but the characters of the four experts never appeared.
In order to be experts, there was no way they wouldnât be playing a lot. Chen Yehui felt that his initial thoughts were correct. Ye Qiu might have prepared for them long beforehand.
If that was the case, the two spies definitely wouldnât be able to get anything. Thinking of this, Chen Yehui discussed this with Liu Hao and dispatched more spies. Apart from the two who went to the Cafe like usual, they added more people to keep watch on Happy Internet Cafe 24/7. This arrangement wasnât difficult for Chen Yehui to do. Their work was done through the game, so if he sent people to go to Happy Internet Cafe, they would be playing the game too. It wouldnât delay their work.
It was just that there were no results after three days.
In game, their characters had disappeared and the experts from outside of the game were nowhere to be seen.
Chen Yehui was anxious. Liu Hao was anxious. The entire Club guild was anxious.
These past few days, there were no signs from Excellent Dynasty nor any of the other Club guilds. One reason was because Lord Grimâs popularity was still on fire. They really couldnât make any movements with so many people watching him. In addition, they knew that Lord Grim was Ye Qiu, so the Club guilds were very fearful. They wanted someone else to test it out for them and die a few times before they moved.
There was also one other reason. Tyrannical Ambition was a good example of this.
Tyrannical Ambitionâs guild leader Jiang You was calm when Ye Qiu entered the Heavenly Domain. Their guild had only gossipped and chatted about it like everyone else and didnât make any movements. This was because Jiang You was still confident about his previous judgement: there had been some sort of inside conflict when Ye Qiu left Excellent Era, so Excellent Era definitely wouldnât want Ye Qiu to return. Thus, Guild Excellent Dynasty would definitely go all out to suppress Ye Qiu and they should just wait to watch the show.
As for Tyrannical Ambition, Ye Qiu fighting Excellent Dynasty was simply too good of a show. Both sides suffering would be a delight to see.
Jiang Youâs thoughts werenât complicated or anything. He had talked about it in the tenth server with many other guilds before, so many of the other guilds had this type of thought too. They really didnât want to move. It would have been so nice if Ye Qiu hadnât come to play the game. Many people shared this wish.
Thus, if it was highly probable that a guild would stand out, everyone was more than happy to wait a bit.
However, on the first day, Excellent Era had only sent out Liu Hao and two other pro players to move. Their scale was too small. The other guilds hadnât known about it. As a result, it seemed like Excellent Era was only observing too and couldnât help but feel a bit worried. These days, the spies in Excellent Era were having a tough time. They were trying all sorts of ways to get information on how Excellent Era was going to deal with Lord Grim.
The peaceful leveling these past few days had made Chen Guo feel astonished. She discussed it with Ye Xiu and after hearing Ye Xiuâs thoughts, she understood that ever since Ye Xiu had stopped the ambush from the three pro players, his plan had already begun.
This was because the Heavenly Challenge had caused his fame to soar, making the guilds unable to do any large movements and were waiting to see what Excellent Dynasty was going to do.
Excellent Dynasty didnât dare make any large movements either, but the Club behind them helped out by directly sending them pro players. With a 20 level suppression, let alone three pro players, a single pro player would be difficult for Ye Xiu to beat. However, Ye Xiuâs deception had caused Excellent Era to be completely uncertain to how many helpers he had and how good the helpers were. As a result, these past few days had dragged on in this way. During this time, Ye Xiu had come into contact with Loulan Slash. After another contact with each other, Loulan Slash said that he would have his answer today. If Loulan Slash agreed, then Ye Xiu wouldnât be alone anymore.
âHow is it? Do you find it fun?â Ye Xiu laughed, âThe top guilds are currently playing a game where whoever moves first loses, but if no one moves, then they will also lose.â
âYou really are.......â Chen Guo couldnât find the words to describe her feelings. Those powerful guilds had been played by Ye Xiu. He had completely figured out their weaknesses and forced them into a tough situation.
However, he also had to have the skill to do so. Without enough skill, how could this situation have happened?
During these past few days, Ye Xiu had went back to the tenth server for one day.
The Heavenly Domain and the tenth server were in different servers, so players couldnât just switch whenever they wanted to. Right now, the game restricted it so that the player could only switch servers once every day. In other words, since he switched from the Heavenly Domain to the tenth server, he had to wait until tomorrow to switch back.
However, Ye Xiu had used these 24 hours well and with the four players in Happy who had reached Level 50, he formed a team and set records for a bunch of Level 50 dungeons.
Even though his unspecialized wouldnât gain any experience, four five-player Level 50 dungeon records were now under Guild Happyâs name.
The tenth server Club guilds had thought that they had gotten rid of this devil and had thought that when Lord Grim got to the Heavenly Domain, he would be immediately chased after and killed, so he would never get past Level 50. But who would have thought that this devil would be so evil. Just before he was about to hit Level 51, he returned to the tenth server to set records. How evil! He wouldnât get any experience in the tenth server and didnât need to worry about Lord Grim hitting Level 51 while setting these records.
In reality, at Level 50, leveling in the normal server was very quick. This was because starting from Level 50, there were many dungeons available. They wouldnât need to kill monsters in the wild to level. The dungeons were enough to last for the entire day. Let alone the large scale dungeons, there were 4 five-player dungeons. If they cleared them every day, how much experience was that? 50 to 51 was much faster than 49 to 50. Leveling to 51 in a few days wasnât a problem.
The reason the guilds didnât have Level 51 characters was because they had done so intentionally. As long as they didnât do their Awakening quests, the characters of the 24 classes wouldnât earn experience either. They had held out so bitterly for so long, but Lord Grim simply came back, waved his sleeves, and left, leaving behind four records under his name.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
