Chapter 47: Ye Qiu and Elder Hai!
"Hmm…"
Fang Ze just realized, "It seems like we’ll be living in the game for the next few days."
"Let’s all relax for two days. We won’t go into the tower during this time. Everyone can do what they like. Shixuan, Old Zhang, and I will discuss the matter of the Wolf Lord."
"Let’s disband."
。。。
Blinking, three days had passed in the game, but only a few hours had passed in reality.
Here, after discussing how to defeat the Wolf Lord, everyone decided not to continue moving forward in the tower.
Because the answer was very simple.
After their analysis, they realized they couldn’t defeat him at this stage.
Ye Qiu did come up with a suggestion – if they could get the Magic Potion recipe of the school from the mouth of the dwarf Hobbit.
Then, their overall strength would definitely increase significantly.
But before that, they needed to do one thing.
In order to keep the existence of the Conspiracy Wolf Lord a secret from other players, Fang Ze, following Ye Qiu’s memory, posted an article.
Haunted Coal Mine!
This was similar to their past life.
Afterwards, Fang Ze and Zhang Qingyan plunged into the first level to improve Hobbit’s favorability rating.
But they weren’t the only ones doing this. Other players had already been trying to improve Hobbit’s favorability rating.
Unfortunately, it was really hard to increase Hobbit’s favorability rating, and until now, no player had managed to uncover the secret for advancing in the game.
Meanwhile, Du Yuan and Watermelon went to the lake to leisurely fish together.
They were already embracing a carefree retirement life.
Fly was being surrounded by other newly qualified players and gradually losing himself amid all the attention.
Especially because there were quite a few female players among the one thousand participants this time!
This led Fly astray, as he directly took a girl to the tower to fight monsters.
While everyone else was busy with their own tasks, Ye Qiu found a secluded spot to start exercising his body.
He filled his backpack with lots of stones to make himself heavier, doubling the effect of his exercise.
Then he took out the Violet Gold longsword to strengthen his wrist.
After a long time passed, Ye Qiu practiced hard for several days alone, not paying attention to anything else.
Some newbies saw the equipment on him and came over to ask him to lead them.
But Ye Qiu ignored them all.
It wasn’t until an old man appeared that Ye Qiu stopped.
Seeing the old man, Ye Qiu suddenly exclaimed, "Isn’t this… the Ice Emperor, old man?"
The old man had long white hair and a sturdy build.
He was not an NPC, but a player.
His ID is called Sea, the very first person in Ye Qiu’s past memories at the Water Divination School!
Known as the Ice King by the players.
At this moment, Elder Hai kept rubbing his head at the boundary, leaving Ye Qiu puzzled about what he was doing.
Seeing this, Ye Qiu put away his weapon and prepared to approach him.
"Hello?"
Elder Hai turned his head at the sound, "Hmm?"
Ye Qiu asked, "Are you a new player in this game?"
Elder Hai squinted his eyes, "Hmm, young man, let me ask you something, do you know how to play this game?"
Ye Qiu was surprised that someone actually didn’t know how to play this game.
And was also the top professional player in the past life?
Ye Qiu’s words may not be entirely accurate because among these top professional players, only Old Man Hai went missing after the game was released.
Other players speculated that he might have already died.
"This game is very free to play, but the mainstream gameplay is still fighting. It depends on how you want to play this game."
Old Man Hai furrowed his brow, "Who are we fighting?"
Ye Qiu glanced at the towering Tower of Seals, "Just go inside the tower, if you don’t mind, I can accompany you on a trip."
If it was someone else, Ye Qiu would not care.
But the former Elder Hai was truly the top combat power among professional players!
Whether it was in the early or late game, Old Man Hai was quite dominant.
At that time, more than twenty people from the Undead Spirit guild attacked Old Man Hai, the first magician, and achieved an amazing record of over twenty wins without loss!
Later, Elder Hai directly found their hiding place and wiped out all the Undead Sorcerers in the guild.
It is said that Old Man Hai once had a grudge with a Red Named Player.
And that Red Named Player happened to be an Undead Spirit Sorcerer!
Since then, Elder Hai completely confronted this group of Undead Spirits.
Ye Qiu thought that with Elder Hai’s help this time, their progress in conquering the Tower of Seals would definitely be faster!
Old Man Hai looked at the black tower and said, "Oh… I see. But young man, getting too addicted to games is not good, young people should focus on their studies."
"Play less games."
。。。
Three hours ago.
"This game is so much fun!"
Old Man Hai couldn’t hold it in and blurted it out the first, causing Ye Qiu beside him to involuntarily twitch his mouth.
Old Man Hai’s head is still as fierce as he remembered, able to defeat a low-level demon beast barehanded, can you believe it?
You’re telling me this is called a magician?
Although Ye Qiu could also do this, it was because of his rich combat experience from his past life and various techniques to deal with demon beasts.
But Old Man Hai could defeat a low-level demon beast solely with his own skills.
"The feeling of hitting the mark so satisfyingly is truly exhilarating, as if it brings me back to my younger days!"
Old Man Hai couldn’t help but blush as he spoke, the exhilarating feeling of a good fight was just amazing!
Ye Qiu saw this and directly took out the steel sword he had used before from behind.
"There is a saying, ‘A clever housewife cannot cook without rice.’ Dealing with a basic demon beast empty-handed is okay, but it’s a bit difficult to deal with an advanced demon beast."
"Consider this weapon as a gift from me to you. Shall we become friends?"
Old Man Hai squinted his eyes and did not take the weapon handed to him by Ye Qiu, "No gain, no reward. Young man, what is your intention?"
Ye Qiu smiled, "Don’t be so serious. It’s just a game, after all. Isn’t it all about having fun and making friends?"
"This is not reality. There is no such thing as no gain, no reward."
Old Man Hai suddenly chuckled upon hearing this, "Interesting… Young man, you seem skilled. What do you do in real life?"
Saying that, Elder Hai slowly took the steel sword handed to him by Ye Qiu.
"Currently unemployed, but this game will surely become popular worldwide in the future, with great business opportunities hidden within."
"If you use your strengths well, earning tens of thousands a month in the game is quite easy."
Ye Qiu showed off his rich battle experience and superb skills before, impressing Old Man Hai.
"What future can playing games have? I see you’re quite skilled, are you interested in working at our company?"
"What company?"
Ye Qiu also didn’t know if Old Man Hai was joking or genuinely inviting him, but he wouldn’t join any company.
Old Man Hai smiled, "State-owned enterprise, interested in learning more?"
Ye Qiu shook his head, "No, I prefer being free and easy."
Old Man Hai sighed when he heard that, even though he didn’t think Ye Qiu would accept his offer.
"Well, young people always have their own ideas."
Old Man Hai said and patted Ye Qiu’s shoulder, but at that moment!
A man in a black robe suddenly appeared in front of them!
The man’s face and body were hidden under the black robe, only a dark iron sword was exposed!
The man’s strange aura gave off a strong sense of danger!
The person in front of them was named Night Song!
Unlike before, Night Song’s ID had now turned blood red!
In the game, a player’s ID usually turns red in only one situation!
That is when they kill other players!
