Chapter 467 – This is an Opportunity
The King's Avatar
Despicable!
This time, Chen Guo really did look down on him. What textbook? What God? What idol? None of them could stop Chen Guoâs disdain towards him.
Peeking at someone one elseâs screen. What shameful behavior! On an online platform, you might not have the chance to peek even if you wanted to, but they were in an Internet Cafe. In an Internet Cafe, this sort of behavior was common. Groups of friends would sit together to play Glory. As a result, they would shift their eyes around like little thieves. Every time Chen Guo saw this, she would always feel the same: dirty, extremely dirty!
Chen Guo already felt dirty enough following a God to pick up scraps. Seeing how shameless he was being, Chen Guo almost couldnât bear it. In order to win, he wouldnât hold back anything!
âYou really donât feel any shame!!â Chen Guo didnât care about bothering Ye Xiu anymore and began shouting in his ears.
âStop moving around randomly! Youâre blocking the screen!!â Ye Xiu was still looking at Chen Guoâs screen.
Chen Guo swiped her mouse and turned her characterâs line of sight away.
âShameless, shameless!â Chen Guo continued to criticize him and asked Tang Rou: âIsnât he too shameless?â
âHm? Really?â Tang Rou was actually doubtful.
Chen Guo worried. Tang Rou was only a person! She had been too careless, letting her play with Ye Xiu. Now she no longer had any sense of justice when watching Glory. How could she be so nonchalant over such shameless behavior?
âIsnât peeking at someone elseâs screen immoral?â Chen Guo wanted to bring Tang Rou back onto the right path.
âBut...... you do it too?â Tang Rou said.
âAh...... thatâs just everyone playing together. Thatâs not related.â Chen Guo laughed.
âIsnât he playing right now too?â Tang Rou asked.
âUh......â Chen Guo was stumped.
After thinking for awhile, she realized that she had thought wrong. She had been replacing Ye Xiu with the image of the idol she had in her mind. If others peeked at someone elseâs screen or even if she did it herself, she wouldnât feel bad. It was fine as long as they werenât using it as an advantage in a fight.
But what about Ye Xiu? She had always treated him as a perfect God. As a result, when Ye Xiu acted in this way, she would immediately be unable to bear it. In other words, she cared even more about Ye Xiuâs image as a God than Ye Xiu himself.
Was she being too harsh?
Chen Guo suddenly thought of celebrities from other areas. Common mistakes made by normal people would turn into huge news by the media if these celebrities did this type of mistake. Public figures seemed to have been burdened with a strong sense of responsibility by society. Was acting like this because Ye Xiu had been hiding behind the curtains the entire time? Was it because he didnât want to feel restricted from the spotlight being on him?
Chen Guo thought as she quietly returned her camera angle back to where the two were fighting.
âHey!â Chen Guo called Ye Xiu, telling him he could look.
âThanks!â Ye Xiu replied and immediately turned his head to look. His nonchalant look as if he had done nothing wrong made Chen Guo angry.
Show restraint! Patience! Heâs just playing the game. If we were in a guild war and I had this opportunity, I probably wouldnât let it go either...... Chen Guo reminded herself.
âYour little trick is of no use.â
Chen Guo heard Deception speak and suddenly felt the urge to smash her computer on this guyâs head. Your opponentâs trick was of no use? What do you mean no use? Itâs not like youâre looking at my screen. Why are you so happy that Iâm restraining myself! Was this some sort of brilliant tactic?
During this time, Deception rolled away. He threw the long string in his hand and ninja blade turned into a flying blade. The attack range grew longer and could be retracted as well.
Lord Grim stepped to the side. He moved up and brandished his sword. His mouse clicked on the ninja blade flying at him and blocked the attack. This was truly a brilliant move. If this was any other time, Chen Guo would have stars in her eyes, but now, she restrained herself from cheering.
Using this opportunity, Deception once again pulled away from the conflict. Having stuck for this long, Deception was clear that pulling such a distance away from Lord Grim wasnât an easy task. This was his chance to escape.
Deception was just about to run, when a cold light flashed and Lord Grim chased after him. However, Deception had already figured out the length of his opponentâs weapon. His ninja blade had only been just enough to reach him, which meant that a sword wouldnât be able to hit him.
Who would have thought that this sword light would actually flash in front of him? Deception looked carefully in surprise. His opponent had actually thrown his sword.
Deception thought this was an accident. What type of attack was that supposed to be?
His ninja blade had a string attached to it, so he could pull it back when he threw it. Normal weapons could be thrown too, but once you threw it, it was the same as discarding it. He would actually drop his own weapon in order to make such an attack?
Deception couldnât understand, but he couldnât miss the opportunity. As a scrap picker, once he saw an item, it had to be picked up. This was the fundamental essence of the profession.
Deception swung his blade and knocked it down. It was the same as what Ye Xiu had done. He was ready to pick up the sword after it landed on the ground. But when he looked at his opponent, his opponentâs hands didnât stop and continued to charge at him. He had another thing in his hands.
What is he trying to do?
Deception was at a loss. His ninja blade had already knocked down the sword. At the same time, he heard a âKa!â The thing in his opponentâs hands seemed to have picked up the sword. And then...... and then the sword didnât drop and continued to fly towards him.
Deception couldnât dodge in time and was hit by the attack. It didnât do much damage to him though. Just as he was about to continue running away, he was suddenly launched into the air. He spun around in midair as his head crashed into the ground.
âCircle Swing????â Deception shouted in surprise.
âThatâs correct!â Ye Xiu said.
âYou you...... what class are you? Whatâs with your weapon?â Deception could speak quickly too.
âI say, arenât you reacting a bit too slowly?â Ye Xiu was shocked.
Deception checked Lord Grimâs character page: âLevel 52? No class???â
âAh?â Ye Xiu was surprised. He thought his opponent had known about this long ago.
âThereâs no info on your weapon...... this is...... a silver weapon?????â Deception was still shouting.
âBrother, do you not read the news?â Ye Xiu was lost in thought. He even stared blankly towards Chen Guo. Chen Guoâs Chasing Haze wasnât far from them. She could obviously hear the two of them speaking.
This Deception clearly didnât know who Lord Grim was.
âWhat news?â The guy even asked.
âBrother, itâs been all over the place recently. I canât believe someone from Glory doesnât know! Iâm very surprised.â Ye Xiu said.
â.......â Chen Guo was speechless. This type of introduction must make the other person want to roll his eyes. Donât you feel embarrassed talking about yourself like that? It was the truth though.
âWho are you?â Deception asked, when a bunch of shouts could suddenly be heard.
âOver there!â
âSo it turns out those two were partners!â
âDonât let them run!!!â
Ye Xiu quickly turned his viewpoint around to look. The troops from the Three Great Guilds were charging towards them. He and Deception had been fighting with each other for too long. The Three Great Guilds had been in chaos in the beginning, but as time went on, they finally realized that they had been set up by Lord Grim into a pointless fight.
Once they regained their composure, they asked their superiors for instructions on what to do. Their superiors slapped the table and cheered in response!
Why hadnât the guilds acted against Lord Grim yet! It was because his fame was too high right now. Chasing and killing him would attract too much attention. The Club guilds cared about their image. If they were going to chase and kill someone, they needed a reason others could accept. They had to be especially careful for a public figure like Lord Grim.
But now, he had come out and killed two of their guildâs captains and caused a huge fight to break out. This could be used a reason. In addition, Lord Grim was seen to be together with Deception.
Deception could be considered famous as well, an extremely infamous figure. Everyone who had their equipment stolen by him all wanted him dead.
The top guilds had noticed him and had initially tried to pull him in. After all, they could all see that Deception was an expert. One of their missions as Club guilds was to discover experts, rope them in, and then send them to the Clubs.
But this Deception seemed to never come out. His friends list was closed. Whenever they happened to bump into him, let alone negotiate, if he didnât steal your equipment, you got lucky. In the end, the Club guilds tempered themselves and made preparations. Whenever there was an activity, they would guard against his scrap picking. Whenever there was a chance, they would try to get close with him. But up until now, itâs said that anyone who has tried to get close to him has died. Of course, the top guilds wouldnât admit this. Letting this type of news spread was too shameful.
Seeing Deception and Lord Grim together, the core members of the top guilds seemed to have a sudden realization.
They were a set!
Lord Grim had sowed discord. Deception had picked up the scraps. These two were working together!
âKILL!!!ââ The Three Great Guilds swarmed. Their numbers had even increased.
They finally had the opportunity to chase and kill Lord Grim. Moreover, this was also another opportunity.
Because of Deception.
After reporting this situation to their superiors, the top guilds immediately made a decision: whether or not they really were together, they were to kill them both in one bite.
âRecord! Record the two of them together!!â The orders came down.
