Hu Die Lan
Chapter 73 Throwing Sand Technique
To be honest, the reactions of the three major guilds surprised Ye Xiu. They were quite magnanimous and mature, worthy of being major guilds that had been operating for many years and remained standing. Tyrannical Ambition reacted the fastest. Not long after the Blood Gunner incident, Ye Weiyang sent a message, not mentioning the incident at all, directly inviting them to kill the Goblin Merchant together. The treatment was negotiable, but the primary condition was to ensure that Tyrannical Ambition got the first kill of the Goblin Merchant.
Ye Xiu had no objection. He also needed the Goblin Merchant. Originally, he was hoping to rely on the market, but now that there was a ready-made opportunity, he wouldn't miss it. The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella needed to be upgraded, and the scope involved was too broad. Seeing that he was already level 21, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella had not yet been fully upgraded to level 15. Fortunately, it was a silver weapon, otherwise, it would be somewhat outdated.
Tyrannical Ambition reacted quickly, what about Blue River Pavilion? They were a bit slower. From Blue River's words, Ye Xiu could see his entanglement. Ye Xiu understood this very well. It was a pity that he had emotions at this time, and as a result, he lost the initiative.
As for Herb Garden, Ye Xiu didn't have any news from them. The people from Herb Garden had never contacted him directly.
To kill the Goblin Merchant, but this Boss randomly refreshed, and there was no specific time. But over the years, everyone had long been accustomed to dealing with it. Anyway, they would do what they should do first, and if they found a wild Boss, they would go if they could.
So as soon as twelve o'clock arrived, everyone was still organizing dungeons. Ye Xiu received a message from Tian Qi, asking if he wanted to go to Frost Forest.
High-Hand greeted them to kill the Blood Gunner, making them quite excited, feeling that their relationship with High-Hand was a little closer. Seeing that it was twelve o'clock, and they had more dungeon attempts, they quickly took the initiative to contact him.
"Are you short of people?" Ye Xiu asked.
"Yes, four missing one," Tian Qi said.
"Oh, then I'll come over right away." Ye Xiu said. Dungeons were a daily task and a major source of experience and economy. Even without Tian Qi and the others' invitation, Ye Xiu would definitely mix with wild teams. At least with these guys, he could pick first when he encountered something he needed, which was not easy.
After letting Lord Grim arrive at Frost Forest, Ye Xiu unexpectedly saw that rogue newbie, Steamed Bun Invasion.
"Why is it you?" Ye Xiu asked strangely. He glanced around, and Moon Midsummer was not there again. Was the little brat still hating him? Ye Xiu didn't know, he didn't even have Moon Midsummer's friend request.
"It's me, it's me, learning more from you big brothers," Steamed Bun Invasion said very modestly.
Ye Xiu knew that although this guy was a Glory newbie, his operations were quite skilled.
"Moon Midsummer played all day today and logged off. Sinking Jade also said she couldn't stay up all night anymore," Tian Qi explained.
"Alas, I can't make it tomorrow either," Dusk Clouds said regretfully.
"What about you, High-Hand?" Tian Qi took the opportunity to inquire about Ye Xiu's schedule. From the past three days, it seemed that High-Hand stayed up all night every day.
"I still show up at night," Ye Xiu replied with a smile.
Saying that, he formed a team, and the five began to dungeon. This Steamed Bun Invasion was a newbie, but he was the highest level among the five, at level 23. Everyone chatted and asked, only to find out that this guy played too crazily. On the day the server opened, he didn't rest for 24 hours. The next day, he slept a little, then got up to fight. Since the server opened 48 hours ago, he spent a total of 6 hours eating and sleeping, and 42 hours in the game, which was basically comparable to the major guilds' shifts.
Everyone sighed and started leveling. Ye Xiu still sat in the center and commanded, and everything went smoothly.
"After Throwing Sand, it's best not to immediately charge forward to attack. This is fighting monsters, so it's okay. If it's PvP, experienced players who are blinded will definitely use Horizontal Sweep or similar attacks to control in front of them at the first time." Ye Xiu also took the time to guide Steamed Bun Invasion.
"Then what should I do?" Steamed Bun Invasion humbly asked for advice.
"Stupid, go around behind them, anyway, people can't see you," Tian Qi and the others also chimed in as teachers.
"Going around behind is a way." Ye Xiu did not directly deny Tian Qi and the others' teachings. "But this takes time, wasting the hard-earned few seconds of blindness. In fact, the best way is not to use Throwing Sand as a starting move, but to use Throwing Sand in a combo. In the process of fighting, unexpectedly use Throwing Sand to sneak attack. At the same time, you have to ensure that even if you don't cause blindness, you have other options."
"You mean, you can't completely rely on blindness for subsequent attacks?" Steamed Bun Invasion said.
"That's right, starting with Throwing Sand to cause blindness and then attacking is an old trick. Now, no one except newbies plays like that, and no one except newbies will be hit like that," Ye Xiu said.
"Then what if it's a sneak attack from the start? Can you use Throwing Sand?" Steamed Bun Invasion asked.
"This... can..." Ye Xiu sweated after answering. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and now even newbies have such despicable ideas.
"But you still can't completely rely on blindness for subsequent attacks, right!" Steamed Bun Invasion summarized the key points.
"Yes," Ye Xiu said.
"Understood." Steamed Bun Invasion felt that he had learned a trick and was very satisfied. Then he began to practice while killing monsters, trying to find opportunities to use Throwing Sand during the attack. The NPCs were stupid monsters and wouldn't avoid blindness as shamelessly as players by turning their heads and shaking their faces. Steamed Bun Invasion's use of Throwing Sand looked pretty good.
"High-Hand, when will you take us to kill the Goblin Merchant again?" Tian Qi and the others asked. These guys were also very greedy.
"That, I promised to help Tyrannical Ambition kill it!" Ye Xiu said.
"Tyrannical Ambition?" Tian Qi and the others wondered, "Are you joining them?"
"No!"
"Then what is this?"
"Just helping them kill the Goblin Merchant," Ye Xiu said.
"Freelancing?" Tian Qi and the others asked. They were no strangers to this term. Dungeon-related team activities often had freelancers, which often appeared in the dungeon activities of low to medium guilds. Because these low to medium guilds were not strong enough, they could not take down some dungeons. In order to obtain equipment to improve their level, they would sometimes hire some high-level players to join the team to help.
But this kind of freelancing was almost impossible to appear in the three major guilds. What high-level players did the three major guilds not have? What dungeons could they not take down? What Bosses could they not beat? They were the top team strength in the game. If even they couldn't deal with it, then there was no external freelancer who could help.
But now, High-Hand was actually invited to freelance for the three major guilds. This didn't look like selling himself at all. This feeling was like inviting a celebrity to perform, a big shot who charged appearance fees.
Tian Qi and the others were really envious, jealous, and hateful. Thinking that they had tried to win High-Hand over to their Lunar Guild at the beginning, they were ashamed. Even the three major guilds were paying him to appear. Their Lunar Guild, which was ranked outside the top 50 in the Realm of the Gods, was not qualified enough even if they gave up the position of guild leader to High-Hand!
While chatting and fighting, a message popped up. Ye Xiu opened it and it was Ye Weiyang: "Goblin Merchant spawned!!"
"In the dungeon!" Ye Xiu regretted.
"Same, everyone's in a dungeon, will contact you when out!" Ye Weiyang said.
