Hu Die Lan
Chapter 655 Too Much Progress
Off the field, one was so silent you wanted to pry his mouth open with a stick, while the other was so talkative you wanted to knock him unconscious with a club for some peace and quiet. On the field, Zhou Zekai was the team's absolute core, the main attacker. He was always in the thick of the battle, using his attacks to drive the team's firepower.
And Huang Shaotian? Blue Rain's tactics weren't entirely centered around him. He was a roaming ghost on the field, often giving the impression that "this guy doesn't exist." But whenever he struck, it was always with a bloody storm. This was the style of an opportunist. His overall stats might not be eye-catching, but analyzing the details of the match revealed that his presence could not be ignored. Because if he didn't exist, the match would have a different outcome. And in the periods where he was very present, his stats were enough to overpower the entire field.
Two players with similar styles are easily compared.
Two players with vastly different styles are also easily compared.
Huang Shaotian rose to fame earlier than Zhou Zekai, but after Zhou Zekai became famous, these two names began to intertwine frequently.
However, most external opinions currently favored Zhou Zekai as being stronger. After all, Huang Shaotian's opportunism always required a prerequisite: opportunity.
When his opponents didn't give him any opportunities, his presence immediately weakened. This had happened to Huang Shaotian before.
In the match, this guy seemed non-existent. But people familiar with his style would wait for him to suddenly jump out and startle everyone. But by the time the match was over, everyone finally realized: "Oh! This guy really didn't exist this time!"
Finding an opportunity was one thing. Grasping the opportunity was another. Even though Huang Shaotian was a master of this, he couldn't guarantee that all opportunities wouldn't slip through his fingers. He always had times when his condition was poor. But with his style, if he didn't seize the opportunity, then his role on the field would be rather embarrassing.
Due to the influence of his style, Huang Shaotian's performance on the field was naturally less stable than Zhou Zekai's, and he gradually fell behind in the evaluations. However, Huang Shaotian did have a championship title in hand, especially since he played a pivotal role in winning that championship, so he hadn't been completely overwhelmed yet.
This time, these two great gods finally met on the highest stage of the finals. The winner would not only defeat the opponent head-on, but also use the finals trophy to increase their persuasiveness. This long-standing debate seemed to be coming to a conclusion.
All Glory fans were looking forward to it, looking forward to the highest climax of the entire year. The fans of these two teams had already been promoting and cheering for their respective teams in various places. In Glory Online, the most direct place, the players of the two guilds had even erupted in countless conflicts, leaving the guild leaders exhausted from fighting.
Yes, it was fighting desperately, not just running around frantically.
Because this was the eve of the finals, any conflict that erupted at this time had to be faced head-on! Peaceful resolutions and concessions? These methods, which the major club guilds usually favored, were definitely not suitable at this special time. Now was the time when morale was needed. The team needed it, and the team's supporters needed it as well. Even if they couldn't gain any advantage, they absolutely couldn't lose their spirits at this time.
As the leader of the fifth regiment of the Samsara guild headquarters, Wei Chen had been working hard during this time. He had very little time for freedom and relaxation. During these few days of rest, he would log on and hear the guild leader's call, and then he would muster his troops and rush straight to a certain place. How could intense battles be without the elite regiment's charge?
As a result of this special moment's turmoil, Wei Chen's talents were once again noticed by the Samsara guild. In their eyes, Wei Chen's command and coordination skills were really high. He was so sharp in this kind of PvP. It was a waste to use such a talent to lead a team to play PvE. He should be leading a team to participate in the competition for wild Bosses! That was a battlefield mainly focused on PvP. Wouldn't it be a pity not to use such talent?
A minor controversy occurred among the Samsara guild's high-level members.
Some believed that this person should be used to compete for wild Bosses, while others still had doubts about this person's trustworthiness.
However, in the end, these doubts were dispelled through a series of reverse thinking. The core members of the Samsara guild held a special meeting to discuss Wei Chen's issue. Later, they unanimously agreed that it would be too extravagant to send such a skilled player as a spy. In any guild, this person should be the best candidate to lead a team to grab Bosses. What were they hoping this person would gain by being a spy?
The core members of Samsara listed reasons one, two, three, four, and five, and couldn't think of any intention a skilled player who had been a spy for so long could have. It couldn't be to try to seize the chairman's seat, right? That was completely impossible. The chairman of the club guild was appointed by the club, and it wasn't something that could be decided based on your performance or public opinion in the game.
The core members of Samsara ultimately didn't realize that Wei Chen's background as a spy was very small. He came from a small team that hadn't even established a guild yet. The Samsara side always considered the value of a spy from the level of club guild competition, so they naturally dispelled the suspicion they should have had about Wei Chen. Wei Chen hadn't even reached that level yet!
So, after this unsettling period before the finals, Wei Chen was appointed as the leader of the elite second regiment by the Samsara guild.
When抢杀(qiangsha) wild Bosses, it was common to send out more than two regiments. The first regiment would definitely be under the command of the guild leader, as this concerned the guild leader's prestige. And this second regiment had almost the same chance of participating in Boss抢(qiang) as the first regiment. Wei Chen was able to grab this position, which was already considered the peak of his spying career.
It was just that after becoming the leader of the second regiment, it was not easy to arrange for Wei Chen's brothers to join. The members of the first and second regiments were not people who could just casually join. Although Wei Chen's brothers had good skills under his guidance, they couldn't be said to be better than the top elite regiment members of this top club guild. These were all experts who could walk sideways in the game. In terms of skill, they were no worse than Wei Chen's gang, and in terms of equipment, they were far superior.
"What should we do?" Wei Chen said helplessly to Ye Xiu. The plan couldn't keep up with the changes. This time, he had progressed too quickly.
"The second regiment... isn't that difficult to control?" Ye Xiu said.
"That's right. My people can't even get into the regiment. When the time comes, it won't be convenient for me to issue some sneaky instructions! I estimate that unreasonable instructions won't move them, and might even expose me," Wei Chen said.
"Don't worry, we didn't say we were going to rely entirely on you. You're just an internal support. We already have some manpower now. I think we can take action soon," Ye Xiu said.
"Where's the manpower?" Wei Chen asked.
"Isn't it there?" Ye Xiu raised his head and gestured.
"Just those two?" Wei Chen was a little speechless. Ye Xiu was gesturing towards Tang Rou and Bao Zi. Bao Zi, following Tang Rou, had also entered the Heavenly Domain. Tang Rou, with the fast experience gain in the Heavenly Domain, had already reached level 70, and her skill points had also cleared 5,000. Recently, she had been studying how to use these 5,000 points appropriately.
Although Bao Zi's Steamed Bun Invasion hadn't reached max level yet, with his strength, lacking a few levels wasn't a problem at all. But even if these two people's strength was far above ordinary players, wouldn't it be too insignificant to go to a wild Boss battle with such a vast crowd of people?
"Little Hand can also follow us and take action together," Ye Xiu said. Little Cold Hands' account had been returned after the skill points had been刷(shua)ed.
"Dare to add one more to make at least five people?" Wei Chen said.
"Isn't there also the boss lady?" Ye Xiu said.
"Her?" Wei Chen said.
"What about me?" Chen Guo glared.
"Frankly speaking, is it a little weak?" Wei Chen was not someone who would be intimidated by Chen Guo's threats, so he told the truth and didn't give her face.
"Something is better than nothing!" Ye Xiu also honestly didn't give her face.
"You two go die!!" Chen Guo was furious!
"That's five people right there," Ye Xiu said.
"Five people, how amazing," Wei Chen nodded.
"Ask your brothers to help too?" Ye Xiu asked.
"They only managed to sneak into Samsara with great difficulty. They'll be exposed right away," Wei Chen said.
"Pick up their old accounts again. Has the heat died down recently?" Ye Xiu said.
"Well, it'll take a long time to make up the experience for those accounts!" Wei Chen said. At that time, they stubbornly caused trouble for the major guilds, and they were killed miserably, and the more they were killed, the more miserable they became. By now, everyone was too lazy to count how much experience each account had lost and how many levels they had turned red. Anyway, they would be embarrassed to say hello to people if they didn't lose at least ten levels. Even if it was ten levels, it definitely wouldn't be a matter of days to raise it back to level 70 from 60, even in the Heavenly Domain.
"Or just tell them to all quit. Anyway, in my current position, they probably can't help me much," Wei Chen said.
"It's hard to say. It's not easy to sneak in, so let them stay if you can. If you really need help, you can send them a batch of accounts!" Ye Xiu said.
"That works too," Wei Chen nodded. Although he didn't have any accounts, he had money now. With money, you can have anything.
"What wild Bosses are left this week?" Ye Xiu then asked.
"How would I know? I just took office," Wei Chen said.
"If there's a situation, we'll take action immediately and try our luck!" Ye Xiu said.
"You're really relying on you few? Don't joke around. When the time comes, even if no one touches you, you won't be able to grab the Boss aggro. What's the output of three people?" Wei Chen said.
"Three people is a bit few. We need to find some collaborators," Ye Xiu said.
"Who?"
"Righteous Ambition!" Ye Xiu said.
