Chapter 195 "Hahaha, Want to Know?

“Hahaha, you want to know? Let me think about what I can make you do, and then I'll consider whether or not to tell you.” Wei Chen raised his eyebrows in triumph.

“Old thing, have you gotten your Death's Hand back yet?” Ye Xiu sneered.

“Damn it!!” Only then did Wei Chen realize that he had gotten too carried away and forgotten this very important matter.

“You win…” Wei Chen clearly valued this Silver weapon of his very much; his years of effort weren't fake.

“Hurry up and tell me.”

“I think you should know that in Glory, when certain conditions are met, the drop rate of certain items will reach 100%, right?” Wei Chen said.

For a veteran expert like Ye Xiu, just this one sentence was enough for him to understand Wei Chen's train of thought: “Are you saying that skill books can also be dropped using this method?”

“Yes, but you can't say it's a guaranteed drop. I think at most you can say it triggers the drop rate,” Wei Chen said.

“Brother, isn't that superstitious?” Ye Xiu was a little dizzy. What with timing, fixed operation sequences, fixed monster killing sequences, and so on and so forth. This wasn't just in Glory, but in many online games some players believed in superstitions like this. But such so-called techniques, which had no logic to speak of, really couldn't convince anyone.

As for obtaining equipment in Glory through skillful operations, that was a 100% drop rate, so it could be fully verified. Moreover, this kind of method had a logical principle behind it. For example, when Ye Xiu first entered the game, the method he used in the newbie village's small dungeon to make the hidden Boss drop the sword was to continuously strike the sword buckle. This was of course explainable in principle: if you always hit the sword buckle, and the sword buckle broke, wouldn't the sword fall out?

There were many such methods in Glory. But now Wei Chen was saying that his method only increased the “drop rate”, which immediately made it seem a bit ethereal. Who knew whether or not the rate had actually been increased?

A 5% chance didn't mean that out of 100 tries, it would definitely drop five times. Probability and distribution weren't the same thing; that was common sense. Out of 1,000 tries, if it didn't drop for 950 consecutive times, and then dropped 50 times in a row at the end, that would still be 5%. So with probability, other than 100% and 0%, it was really hard to say anything about the data. Now Wei Chen was just talking about an increase, which really seemed like the superstitious thinking of an online game swindler.

“Superstitious? My pile of characters with around 4700 skill points is enough to prove that this isn't superstitious, right?” Wei Chen said.

“Then tell me how to do it,” Ye Xiu asked.

“Well, this requires starting with the relationship between people and Glory.”

“Death's Hand,” Ye Xiu said calmly.

“Damn you!” Wei Chen gnashed his teeth.

“Hurry up and tell me.” Ye Xiu, with a handle to grasp, was being impetuous very stylishly.

“There's a lot of content, I'll send you a document!” Wei Chen didn't continue to be glib. In fact, he knew that what he had grasped was very important. The two of them were forming a team from scratch, and ambitiously aiming for the championship. That required not only excellent players, but also sufficiently strong characters.

“Okay, send it to me, and I'll study it later,” Ye Xiu said.

“Is there anything you don't trust about my research? It's just that you've had too little contact with online games in recent years. In reality, Glory is based on online games after all, and many things can be inspired from the online game model. The training models of the major teams are becoming more and more mature, but they are also becoming more and more detached from online games, which isn't good,” Wei Chen said with great feeling.

“Sounds like you've discovered a lot over the years?” Ye Xiu said.

“Quite a bit, definitely things you can't see in the pro scene,” Wei Chen said confidently.

“So thank me! For giving you the opportunity to return to this stage,” Ye Xiu said.

Wei Chen was silent for a long time, as if he was also touched by something, but after a moment he opened his mouth and said, “Screw you, hurry up and give me back Death's Hand.”

“It's in the city warehouse, go back and get it,” Ye Xiu said.

“Wait, something seems a little off up ahead.” Just as they were about to exit the Poison Fang Swamp, Wei Chen suddenly stopped Wind Howl's movements and told everyone else to stop as well.

“Yeah, something's a little off,” Ye Xiu said. Both of these experienced veterans had caught sight of some unusual figures.

“Probably those guilds from before; they still left some people behind to try and scheme against us,” Wei Chen said.

“Looks like there are quite a few people,” Ye Xiu made a 360-degree sweep. These people hadn't completely revealed themselves yet, but they weren't trying so hard to hide either. Clearly, they had completed their encirclement and were confidently preparing to show themselves.

“Looks like breaking through will be difficult,” Wei Chen said.

“Agreed.”

“You retreat first,” Wei Chen said.

“Definitely.” Ye Xiu logged off decisively.

“Damn you! Couldn't you say something polite??” Wei Chen's curses chased after him on QQ.

“Tch, do we need that kind of formality? We understand each other perfectly; why waste time?” Ye Xiu asked.

“You bastard, you said you'd give us a batch of accounts, right?” Wei Chen asked.

“Of course. I'm saying, do you still have time to chat here?” Ye Xiu retorted.

“If the enemy doesn't move, I don't move. Anyway, these accounts are expendable. I'll fight them to the death later and let them know how powerful I am,” Wei Chen said.

“Seeing me log off should have been a big blow to them,” Ye Xiu said.

“Don't get cocky; be careful they're camping your spawn point,” Wei Chen said very familiarly; he had camped Ye Xiu like this before.

“I don't believe they'll camp it every day. If the scene is a little smaller, you can easily rescue me,” Ye Xiu said.

“Why should I rescue you?” Wei Chen said.

Ye Xiu replied with four words: Death's Hand.

“Damn it! You're giving me the blues! Give me back Death's Hand as soon as you get out of there. If you don't return it, I won't agree. I can't wait a minute longer,” Wei Chen cursed.

“Hurry up and start the battle!” Ye Xiu said.

“Wait for our glorious news!” Wei Chen replied one last time. In the game, at the edge of the Poison Fang Swamp, the battle had already begun with a bang.

Led by Wind Howl, a bunch of semi-naked characters with extremely incomplete equipment suddenly launched a charge in one direction. There was no other way; the moment they were kicked out of the guild, this group of people were all half-naked. Half of their equipment had been taken from the guild warehouse, and would automatically be taken back if they left the guild.

Faced with the charge of this group of half-naked characters, the encirclement laid out by the major guilds was calm and unhurried. They mobilized their firepower, wanting to just AoE them all at once.

Who would have thought that this charge was a feint? The instant the encirclement launched its attack, the two teams suddenly changed direction and started a new offensive. This timing was precisely the moment when the encirclement's attack had already been launched and could not be reversed.

*Pfft!*

It was as if a sword had directly pierced a vital point. It was just that the blade was too blunt to take a life, but it still cut off two ounces of flesh. The players in the encirclement were instantly hit by an AoE from these two teams, and several people fell.

“Pick up the equipment, pick up the equipment!!” Wei Chen roared loudly at this time. There weren't many pieces of equipment on the ground in the first place, and 20 or so people went up to snatch them, which was very ungentlemanly.

But this snatch made the encircling players dumbfounded. Everyone came from a big guild, with status, discipline, and demeanor. They really couldn't stand this shameless, rogue style. But in the time it took to show their disdain, the few pieces of equipment on the ground had been swept clean. Wei Chen roared again, and the two teams split to the left and right, each stabbing in a section, and forcefully pinching out a piece from the meat pile of the encirclement to use as dumpling filling.

But this time, the guild players' counterattack was also timely, and they were no longer able to easily pick up any cheap loot. A wave of counterattacks immediately took down several of them as well.

This was team combat. AoE attacks were everywhere, and life and death were only a matter of an instant. It was impossible for Ye Xiu to turn the world upside down in such a scene. After all, a level 54 character had limited ability.

The battle that occurred at the edge of the Poison Fang Swamp didn't last long, and was almost over within a minute. Those twenty or so players cursed and fought, eventually falling one by one.

Yes, they had been cursing the whole time, and cursing extremely foully, displaying an extraordinary understanding of the reproductive system. But from their curses, one couldn't hear any anger. It was as if they had unleashed a big move on the enemy, making them feel very happy, very happy.

The opponents were finally wiped out. But the guild players couldn't be happy at all. The opponents they had killed didn't have the kind of unwillingness and depression that came with being killed; all they had was the passion to continue fighting. Before they died, they shouted taunts such as “Wash yourself clean and wait for me to come and explode you.”

This made the guild players feel as if they had been ganged up on. They looked at each other, unable to squeeze out any joyful emotions for a long time.

Just then, a system message was released: Guild Samsara has killed Swamp Hunter Leip.

What was going on?

The guild leaders who saw this message were all stunned. Swamp Hunter Leip, wasn't he stolen by Lord Grim's group? At the exit of the Poison Fang Swamp, they had finally blocked that group of people. Although it was a pity that they couldn't catch Lord Grim, it could be regarded as a small victory in the confrontation. But how was it that what they were seeing now was Guild Samsara killing Swamp Hunter Leip?

Just as everyone hadn't recovered, some follow-ups to the previous posts with evidence suddenly appeared on the major Glory forums.

The follow-ups mainly talked about two things.

One, the Blue Brook Guild, which had been ridiculed and despised last time, was a misunderstanding. This matter was actually done by the guild pest Lord Grim, who roamed between the tenth server and the Heavenly Domain, colluding with others. After clarifying the truth, the Blue Brook Guild assisted Guild Samsara in snatching back the Boss, and in accordance with the agreement of providing evidence, handed the Boss over to Guild Samsara to kill.

The second thing was Guild Samsara as the protagonist. They didn't fight for the Boss, but they had to fight for pride. The Blue Brook Guild had been proven to be a misunderstanding, but when encountering such a thing, Guild Samsara would never back down. Excellent Dynasty wanted to take advantage of the situation, very well, then they would fight. Guild Samsara would never compromise for any reason. Facing any difficulties, they would kill their way out, kill their way to vindication!

Both events had some videos and pictures as evidence. The scene of the Excellent Dynasty guild players picking up equipment one by one, either bending over or squatting down, under the proud and upright posture of the Guild Samsara players, was deeply recorded.

“Didn't you say you couldn't understand this transaction? Do you understand now?” Ye Xiu said to Chen Guo.
