"What?" Chen Guo retorted.

"If you're staying up all night, then you stay here. I'll go sit in the smoking area," Ye Xiu said.

"If you go sit in the smoking area, then are you on duty or am I?" Chen Guo said, annoyed.

"Oh, then how about you move somewhere else? Don't you dislike the smell of smoke?" Ye Xiu said.

Chen Guo was speechless. Although she understood that he was also thinking of her, what was this feeling of being嫌弃 (xiánqì, disliked)?

Ye Xiu already had the cigarette pack in his hand, implying that Chen Guo had to make a decision. Either she sat here to take Ye Xiu's shift, or she could go off and play.

"Forget it, I'm not playing, I'm going to sleep." Chen Guo angrily quit the game and got up to run away.

Ye Xiu turned to watch Chen Guo leave. He suddenly noticed that Chen Guo's account card, which she had just swiped, was left on the table. This wasn't forgetting it; it was just that Chen Guo treated the internet café like home, so it was normal to leave things lying around. An idea immediately popped into Ye Xiu's head, and he quickly called out, "Boss, you forgot your card. Do you want me to level it up for you tonight?"

"Whatever you want!" Chen Guo replied casually.

Ye Xiu nodded, quickly lit a cigarette with a hand speed close to three hundred APM, and put it in his mouth. The encirclement of the Skeleton Warrior was still continuing, but Ye Xiu wasn't affected at all by talking and lighting a cigarette. He continued to focus on the game, and before long, the Skeleton Warrior was defeated. The sword that Ye Xiu needed was already lying on the ground. He went over and picked it up, decisively giving up the other items. Tian Qi and the others no longer pushed back and forth. The three of them looked at their professions and divided the equipment, and casually swept the other materials into their bags. Tian Qi said, "Gao Shou (高手, expert) bro, we're planning to keep the other high-level materials we got from the hidden bosses yesterday that you don't need for now, and sell them when the price is higher in the future. Right now, the new server is full of奸商 (jiānshāng, unscrupulous merchants) who are buying at low prices to trick newbies. When the price becomes normal in the future, we'll sell them and give you your share of the money, okay?"

"I've already taken my share. Those are yours," Ye Xiu said.

"The capable should take more, Gao Shou (高手, expert) bro, you don't have to be so modest," Tian Qi said.

Ye Xiu smiled and didn't say anything more. The four continued to clear the dungeon, and Tian Qi asked, "Do you want to add another person?"

Ye Xiu understood what he meant. They had already gotten the items they needed. Having another person in the team would make it more efficient.

"Whatever! But I'm only leveling up to 20 today. After that, I have to take a friend to level up," Ye Xiu said.

"Oh, okay. Do you want us to help?" Tian Qi said. Actually, he hadn't specifically turned off his microphone when Ye Xiu and Chen Guo were talking, so Tian Qi and the others had vaguely heard a lot.

"No need, you guys just do what you need to do," Ye Xiu said.

"Oh." Tian Qi and the others didn't say much more. They had only known Ye Xiu for a day, and although relationships were established quickly in online games, as adults, everyone was very sensible.

After leaving the dungeon, Tian Qi started calling for people to join the team. It was too easy to form a team in the newbie zone. From the long list of applications, Tian Qi finally picked a female player who was level 17 to join the team.

The female player's name was Chen Yu. After joining the team, she scanned the team list and became excited.

Tian Qi, Mu Yun Shen, Qian Sheng Li, and Jun Mo Xiao. Wasn't this the team that got the first kill for Spider Cave and Spider Lord? Chen Yu conveyed her excitement to everyone after connecting to voice chat, not expecting that she could join such an expert team.

Because of the popularity of the voice chat system in Glory, cross-dressing was basically eliminated. When players did activities together, they would definitely communicate directly using voice chat. If a female character only typed and didn't speak, everyone would immediately become suspicious. Of course, if a man's voice sounded like a woman's, this natural talent would be impossible to guard against.

Tian Qi and the other two listened to the girl speak, while inadvertently walking past the girl one meter in front of her. Ye Xiu knew that they were looking at her appearance.

There were only two character templates in Glory, a male and a female. The specific appearance and body type could be designed using the editor. You could design it yourself, or randomly generate it. If you wanted it to be realistic, you could directly scan your photo into the editor, and after providing some basic data, the editor could automatically generate a character model in the game that was basically identical to yourself. Therefore, whether a female player's appearance in the game was her real appearance was a question that every male player was very concerned about. It was said that some experienced “wolf” players could tell at a glance whether a female player's appearance was real or fake.

Tian Qi and the other two didn't seem to have this "wolf" attribute. After observing the newly arrived Chen Yu girl, they came to the conclusion that she was "average." Whether it was true or false, they didn't know.

Chen Yu was very active. After expressing her admiration for the first kill team, she also expressed her honor at being able to join the first kill team. Then, she expressed her surprise that the experts on the first kill team were still only level 18. Finally, she submitted an application to see if she had the opportunity to become a permanent member of the first kill team.

In response, Tian Qi could only regretfully explain that their team originally had another brother, but he didn't come today, so there was an extra spot.

Chen Yu was very disappointed, but she hadn't given up yet. Since she couldn't be on the main team, she began to work hard to apply for a substitute position and inquire about what guild and organization they were in.

This question was difficult for Tian Qi and the others to answer. Obviously, outsiders regarded them as an expert team to be worshiped. They hadn't entered the dungeon yet, and neither had Chen Yu. But as soon as they entered the dungeon and started working, experienced players would immediately realize that in this team, only Jun Mo Xiao was an expert, and the others were not worth mentioning at all.

Chen Yu's questions, these expectations, could only fall on Gao Shou (高手, expert) bro. Now she was asking about guilds or something... Tian Qi and the others did have a guild, but now they had the大神(dàshén, pro) halo of Gao Shou (高手, expert) bro. Wouldn't taking out their guild's name to show off be like slapping themselves in the face?

"Uh, let's hurry up and go to the dungeon!" Tian Qi changed the subject and ran in first. Mu Yun Shen and the others hurriedly followed. After entering the dungeon, it was natural for Ye Xiu to start commanding. He had just said a word when Chen Yu strangely interjected, "Huh, who's talking?"

She had chattered a lot as soon as she joined the team. Tian Qi and the other three had been chatting with her, and Ye Xiu was only speaking for the first time since entering the dungeon.

"Jun Mo Xiao, our team's大神(dàshén, pro). We were able to get the complete first kill entirely thanks to him. Without him, our team isn't worth mentioning," Tian Qi found an opportunity to tell the truth, and immediately felt a lot more relaxed after speaking.

"Worship大神(dàshén, pro)!" Chen Yu typed with an icon and added her own voice.

"Haha, let's go!" Ye Xiu smiled and led the team. Commanding and killing monsters. Before long, a clear expert demeanor was revealed. But in the face of such genuine talent, Chen Yu didn't have much of an excited reaction.

Tian Qi and the others realized that this girl was a true newbie player.

"This girl is ruined," Mu Yun Shen said quietly.

"Yeah, her starting point is too high. She's only a newbie and she's already seen such an extreme expert. How will she mix with ordinary people in the future?" Tian Qi said.

"Tragedy!" Qian Sheng Li said with emotion.
