Chapter 238 – Randomly Chosen
The King's Avatar
âSenior, Iâm in Congee City.â Steamed Bun Invasion revived in the city and sent Ye Xiu a message.
âYouâre terrible.â Ye Xiu replied.
âBut I donât have a weapon and I donât have money.....â Steamed Bun Invasion said.
âYou...... really are terrible. Iâll be there in a second!â Ye Xiu said.
âOK!â
Ye Xiu didnât immediately return to Congee City, but went towards Line Canyon instead. His team all logged out at Line Canyon. Even though he didnât think the other team members would be as innocent as Steamed Bun, they would probably encounter some difficulties too.
At 8:30, Su Muchengâs Cleansing Mist came online.
âHm? Why isnât everyone here?â Su Mucheng asked.
âCanât do anything about it.â Ye Xiu replied helplessly. Tang Rou definitely wouldnât be coming and Qiao Yifan hadnât come on yet.
âCan we still do it?â Su Mucheng asked.
âWeâll see. Come out of Line Canyon first. Be careful.â Ye Xiu said.
Su Mucheng knew what to expect. Even though there were players watching her, Su Mucheng easily shrugged them off.
Ye Xiu went over to receive her. As he approached Line Canyon, he noticed a few players standing outside of the entrance. They didnât seem to be going in or heading out. Ye Xiu made a calculation. He then rushed forward and cleared them away.
Each of them sent a message to their respective guilds: Lord Grim is in Line Canyon.
After 20 seconds, the soldiers who had found him were killed.
âOh! You came to receive me?â At Line Canyon, Su Muchengâs Cleansing Mist had already reached the entrance. When she climbed up, she saw Lord Grim.
âOf course.â Ye Xiuâs Lord Grim stood there. Beside him were even a few corpses, the guards who had been waiting there. Even though they died, they didnât immediately revive and stayed to keep watch instead. They really were responsible and diligent.
âWay to ruin the scene!â Su Mucheng wasnât happy with the corpses.
âLetâs go!â Ye Xiu said and the two left.
The guilds dispatched their troops and began to pursue them. The participants were the ones from yesterday, but they didnât have the same fighting spirit like before.
The players that had participated in battle though were still able to turn their anger into motivation. But the majority of the players had just run around randomly, waiting, or doing something dull and boring. After knowing that they were going to continue today, everyone had prepared their movies, comics, novels, and snacks to better waste their time.
Ye Xiu led Su Mucheng around the map to escape from the guildâs search web. Afterwards, they headed to Bulls Town.
As the first town players would go to after Beginner Village, even though it was small, it had everything. It was possible to go into the Arena through here as well.
When they arrived at Bulls Town, it was already almost nine. Ye Xiu first sent Steamed Bun Invasion some money to buy a weapon. He then searched his friends list, Seven Fields, Sleeping Moon, and Drifting Water were on. But if they were to join, they would also join the conflict between Ye Xiu and the guilds. Ye Xiu didnât want this.
At 9 oâclock sharp, Endless Night came online and his character was also already in front of the Arena entrance. Crowd Lover and the others were already waiting there. They didnât dare have Zhang Xinjie wait for them.
They didnât dare, but Ye Xiu did.
âStart?â
âNot enough players.â
â4 hours and 37 minutes wasnât enough time?â Zhang Xinjie was very unhappy.
âNo choice. How about another time. Is 12 okay?â
âNo.â 12 was Zhang Xinjieâs sleeping time.
âThen what do you say.â Ye Xiu replied.
âWhen will you be able to gather your players?â Zhang Xinjie asked.
â12.....â
âTomorrow then. I hope you wonât miss it again.â Zhang Xinjie concluded. He didnât want to waste time.
âAh, wait! I have someone.â Ye Xiu hastily called. He had just received a prompt. He hadnât checked yet and the message was already there: âPKPKPKPKPK.â
âThe noisy guyâs here again!â Su Mucheng disdained.
Lord Grim quickly entered the Arena. He opened a room and after finishing, he sent the room number to Huang Shaotianâs Flowing Tree.
âWait for me to switch accounts!â Huang Shaotian immediately said.
âCome here for now!â Ye Xiu said.
âWhy?â Huang Shaotian asked.
âFirst help us play a round.â
âF*ck f*ck f*ck!! I came to PK with you. Do you think Iâm a summoned creature!â Huang Shaotian cursed.
âItâll be quick.â Ye Xiu said.
âNo weapon!â Huang Shaotian called.
âLook for Steamed Bun Invasion. Heâs currently buying a weapon. Let him buy you one.â Ye Xiu replied. Huang Shaotian went to contact Steamed Bun Invasion.
In the Arena, the other team immediately entered after receiving the room number. Jiang Youâs team hadnât changed classes, except the Cleric had become Endless Night.
On Ye Xiuâs side, his Lord Grim and Su Muchengâs Cleansing Mist were already there. The three empty spaces hadnât been filled.
âWhere are your players?â Endless Night messaged. Suddenly, the third spot was taken and a character locked in: Steamed Bun Invasion. Quickly after, the fourth: Flowing Tree.
âFlowing Tree?â Jiang You was surprised.
âWhoâs this?â Zhang Xinjie asked.
âWe didnât meet him yesterday, but he killed quite a few players in Congee Forest. Heâs only Level 27.â Jiang You introduced him.
âHurry up. Hurry up. Hurry up!â Flowing Tree immediately began hurrying them.
âHe also talks a lot.â Jiang You added.
âThe Blade Masterâs words are already flowing.â Zhang Xinjie said.
âThen who is this?â A fifth players locked in. The Striker was puzzled when he looked at it. This fifth player was a Level 31 Assassin called Zero Kills. He hadnât heard of such a player.
âZero Kills?â Jiang You was also puzzled. He quickly sent Cold Night a message. Cold Night didnât know either.
ã
âReady ready ready ready ready ready ready ready ready ready!â Flowing Tree typed again.
âIf you donât want to be exposed, then talk a bit less.â Ye Xiu said to Flowing Tree.
âHm?â
âThat Endless Night over there is Zhang Xinjie.â
âYou serious?â Huang Shaotian was surprised.
At this moment, everyone clicked ready and the team competition began. They quickly entered the battlefield and the map Lava Cemetery was randomly chosen.
âYou serious?â After entering the map, Huang Shaotian asked again.
âNo. You keep on chatting!â Ye Xiu said.
Usually, Huang Shaotian would begin typing crazily into the public chat as soon as he entered, but this time he resisted. As for that Zero Kills, he impatiently rushed up to battle.
âHey, this broâs so impatient. Who is he?â Huang Shaotian asked.
âNo idea.â Ye Xiu said.
âNo idea?â Huang Shaotian didnât understand.
âWe didnât have enough players, so a random person joined.â Ye Xiu said.
Everyone went crazy. Ye Xiu didnât put a password in his room, so anyone could join. Previously, the three spots had been flashing like crazy because whenever a person joined, Ye Xiu would kick him. He did that to keep Steamed Bun Invasion and Huang Shaotianâs spot. After they joined, he didnât care. As a result, the next random person who joined was this Assassin, Zero Kills.
As for Tyrannical Ambition, they were the ones at stake. If they won, they didnât get anything, but if they lost, they would lose a lot of precious materials. Who else would accept these conditions?
âEven though that Flowing Tree is low-leveled, the reports say he isnât weak. As for that Assassin, I have no idea. But in order to participate in this match, his strength shouldnât be looked down on.â Jiang You analyzed.
âLook, that Assassinâs coming.â The Striker called. The Assassin, Zero Kills, had left the team and rushed forward.
âWhat type of strategy is this?â Zhang Xinjie wondered, when Zero Kills suddenly stopped and turned back.
âHeâs going back now?â Tyrannical Ambitionâs players were utterly confused.
