Chapter 44 Various Fees

Chapter 44 Command

“Hahahaha…” Tian Qi and the others laughed with unrestrained abandon. They had previously thought it a bit foolish of Chen Guo to shout “God,” but their laughter now reached a level that could lead others to mistake them for mental patients.

Many players outside the dungeon heard the loud laughter and turned their characters' view over, only to see someone named Ye Wei Yang frantically spamming over twenty cartoon emojis of faces blasted black with soot in the current channel.

“What's going on?” the players asked each other, but no one knew. So everyone cautiously moved their characters closer, trying to hear something.

Then they heard what seemed to be Ye Wei Yang, the one who had been spamming the emojis, speaking through gritted teeth: “Then what kind of professional setup do you need?”

“Three fire-elemental mages with a spell attack of 430 or more, a Xiu Lulu (level increase based on player level) magic scholar above level 22 who knows Shadow Cloak. Good technique, stable operation, zero tolerance for mistakes,” Ye Xiu said.

Ye Wei Yang was stunned. Three mages, that was an extremely violent output team. Mages had low defense and health, and magic scholars only wore leather armor, slightly better. The entire team was extremely offensive and weak defensively; one OT (over-taunt) could wipe out the entire team. This was indeed a zero-tolerance team. Zero tolerance meant not being allowed to make a single mistake.

Ye Wei Yang wasn’t too surprised by such demanding requirements. Because the current record hung high on the leaderboard: 20 minutes, 24 seconds, and 11 milliseconds.

To break such a powerful record would naturally require extremely harsh measures. A team that made mistakes would waste so much time just saving the situation that such a team was destined to be out of the running for the record.

“Such a team may not be able to be assembled right now,” Ye Wei Yang said. Actually, not just right now, they wouldn’t be able to assemble it in a short time. And not just Tyrannical Ambition; no guild currently had three fire-elemental mages with a spell attack of 430 or more.

A spell attack of 430 meant that the weapon had to be a level 20 purple staff. How easy was it to get a purple staff? Even if it dropped, it might not be for fire users. Tyrannical Ambition currently had a total of three elemental mages with purple weapons, and unfortunately, none of them were fire element.

“It’s okay, contact me when you can put it together,” Ye Xiu said.

“Are there any other options besides that?” Ye Wei Yang said.

“Level 25 then,” Ye Xiu said.

Level 25 was a brand new stage, new equipment, new skills, a great improvement in everyone's strength. Like the Frost Forest, a level 20-25 dungeon, the records that each major server ultimately maintained were all created when the whole team was level 25.

“Okay, let’s add each other as friends first!” Ye Wei Yang said.

“Yeah.” Ye Xiu and Ye Wei Yang added each other as friends.

Ye Wei Yang, who had been serious for a while, revealed his true colors after adding the friend: “Now we don’t need to farm any records, we’re missing one, just come with us for a run!”

“Damn!” Tian Qi and the others exclaimed. This person was truly an unkillable, uncrushable, shameless, super invincible cockroach.

“Sure,” Ye Xiu agreed, “then the fee can be lower.”

“This also requires a fee? Is it also a fee when you go with them?” Ye Wei Yang said.

“There’s no fee, but the equipment is all allocated by the captain, and I’m the captain,” Ye Xiu said.

“That’s no problem, we’re the same,” Ye Wei Yang said readily.

Tian Qi and the others on the side were very unhappy listening to this! Their team indeed prioritized distributing equipment to Expert, but they knew that Expert was kind and would never fight them for things that were really suitable for them. During the Spider Cave, he even gave up the purple weapon, and Yue Zhongmian was someone who had a grudge against him!

“You can see clearly, I haven’t changed jobs yet, I want all the equipment,” Ye Xiu said.

“Just a few pieces of equipment, let’s go, let’s set off.” Ye Wei Yang frequently sent team invitations, but they were all automatically rejected by the system because the other party was still in a team. Finally, Ye Xiu quit the team and added Lord Grim to Ye Wei Yang's team. This was a standard team of one MT (main tank), one healer, and three outputs. After joining the team, Ye Wei Yang gave the captain to Lord Grim.

“Then let’s go!” Ye Xiu directed Lord Grim into the dungeon.

“Go!” Ye Wei Yang led the other three to follow. He was still very satisfied with this result. He wasn’t in a hurry to record anything, he just wanted to see what Lord Grim was capable of.

In the Frost Forest, ice and snow were falling, and everything was silent. The five of them stood in a row, no one moved, and no one spoke.

The static screen lasted for about half a minute.

“Hello, hello!” Ye Wei Yang seemed to be testing his headset.

“What are you saying hello to?” Ye Xiu asked.

“Is anyone talking? I haven’t heard anyone talking,” Ye Wei Yang said.

“Isn’t it because no one is talking?” Ye Xiu said.

“No one is talking,” the other three expressed their confirmation.

“Why aren’t you talking?” Ye Wei Yang said.

“Who are you asking?”

“You!”

“Why should I talk?” Ye Xiu asked back.

“To command!” Ye Wei Yang said.

“Me command?”

“Yeah.”

“Command fee.”

More than twenty soot-blackened emojis flashed across the screen… The other three were all messed up: “Buddy, you’re not serious, are you?”

“Heh heh,” Ye Xiu laughed.

“How is the command fee calculated?” Ye Wei Yang realized that he had met an opponent today, but there was nothing he could do, who asked him to be flattering others today? Ye Wei Yang secretly felt annoyed.

“Ten white wolf bristles!” Ye Xiu said.

“Brother, you are so dark!!” the four said in unison. White wolf bristles were not calligraphy brushes, but wolf hair that had a chance of dropping from the hidden boss White Wolf in the Frost Forest, which was a rare material.

“You don’t have to use me to command!” Ye Xiu said.

Ye Wei Yang thought about it, in order to fully understand the quality and level of a master, it was very necessary to listen to his command, so he gritted his teeth: “Okay, but it has to be given outside, I didn’t bring it with me.”

“Does he keep his word?” Ye Xiu asked the other three. The big guilds would not go back on their word, for example, after the verbal agreement with Lan He, Ye Xiu never doubted that the other party would go back on his word. But this Ye Wei Yang’s shamelessness was really unbelievable, so he had to express his suspicion.

“He keeps his word, he keeps his word,” the other three said quickly.

“Okay then!” Ye Xiu agreed.

“Hurry up!” Ye Wei Yang said.

“Okay. MT, aggro the monsters, DPS up, healer watch the MT.” Ye Xiu commanded.

The four were stunned, and it was another half minute of static screen.

“Finished?” Ye Wei Yang asked.

“Of course.”

“What kind of command is this!” Ye Wei Yang collapsed.

“You are all experts, you know what to do,” Ye Xiu said.

Ye Wei Yang found that he seemed to have been tricked. If it was just this kind of step-by-step fighting method, their team really didn't need any command at all, everyone could just act automatically. No, he had to be worthy of the command fee of ten white wolf bristles!

“No, no, this doesn’t count,” Ye Wei Yang shouted, “you have to command step by step.”

“Okay…” Ye Xiu said, “Knight, go aggro those two goblins at 10 o’clock. There are three possibilities, when both are ranged, approach at the fastest speed, and when you are about to be hit by the ranged attack, use Falling Phoenix Hammer, which can just jump over the attack and knock over the two monsters, then attack them in close combat, and first pull the aggro of one of them; when one is ranged and one is melee, use Starfall Hammer to interrupt the ranged monster’s attack, and when the melee monster gets close, use Repelling Shot to knock it away, and prioritize pulling the aggro of the ranged one; when both are melee, use Falling Phoenix Hammer to start, repel one with Repelling Shot, and establish aggro on the remaining one. Understand?”

The knight was in tears: Commanding me like this, am I an idiot?
