Hu Die Lan

Chapter 698 Here and Gone

That guy he was pointing at was of course clear to Chen Guo. She had had some contact with He Who Never Tires, and had learned that he was a pretty formidable person. Chen Guo, of course, welcomed formidable people very tightly, and upon hearing that this guy had finally logged on, Chen Guo hurriedly logged into her account to go and unload the goods.

"Where are you guys?" Chen Guo asked as she frantically turned on two more computers, preparing to log in with three characters and unload the goods of the three of them. She also knew that movement speed was very important when dealing with He Who Never Tires. These three always came back from scavenging weighed down with burdens, and their movement speed was greatly affected. In this situation, it might not be enough to deal with He Who Never Tires.

"Unload mine first, then theirs. Opening three computers at once... you can't even do Shadow Dance," Ye Xiu said.

Chen Guo ignored him and quickly got on her Chasing Haze, rushing to where Lord Grim was and trading away all the items on Lord Grim's body.

"Okay, I'll go first." Ye Xiu called out and ran. Lord Grim's appearance was no longer top-heavy and light-footed; these days of scavenging had been fruitful, and naturally there was high-end equipment to exchange for. Although Ye Xiu's style of valuing practicality over appearance remained unchanged, this time the mix-and-match was a bit more human-like and not as ridiculously funny as before.

After asking about He Who Never Tires' current location from Zhan Lou Lan and the others, Ye Xiu felt a bit depressed. Judging from the information revealed by those few guilds, the direction He Who Never Tires went after logging on was most likely the teleportation array. Once he teleported, who knew which main city he would go to? And Ye Xiu's Lord Grim was still far from the nearest teleportation array. In any case, it was impossible for him to catch up to He Who Never Tires before he teleported away and intercept him.

"Can you send someone to pester him?" Ye Xiu asked the four guild leaders.

"This, I'm afraid it's too late..." From the reports they had received, the four guild leaders also determined He Who Never Tires' direction. Before he reached the teleportation array, they were powerless to mobilize enough manpower.

"Sigh..." Ye Xiu regretted. He finally had an opportunity, but that guy still managed to slip through. He was only focused on scavenging in the best spots and neglected the problem of He Who Never Tires moving as soon as he logged on.

"I'm also too late, alas."

"God, don't worry. I've sent out the message. No matter where that guy appears, as long as our people see him, we'll know immediately," the four guild leaders replied one after another.

"That's great!" Ye Xiu was pleased. With so many people, the power was great!

While thinking, Ye Xiu had Lord Grim run toward the nearest teleportation array, preparing to immediately start hunting once he discovered He Who Never Tires' tracks again. At least that guy was online now, wasn't he? With the player base of the four guilds, they might really run into him somewhere.

Lord Grim hadn't run out much when the news from He Who Never Tires was cut off. He Who Never Tires' movement speed was too fast. After a long time, ordinary players simply couldn't keep an eye on him.

Unexpectedly, while hurrying on the road, he quickly received another message. It was from Yue Ziqing of Yueyun Guild, saying that someone from their guild had seen He Who Never Tires.

"Where is he?" Ye Xiu asked hurriedly.

"Auke City," Yue Ziqing replied.

Auke City!

Ye Xiu paused slightly. What a coincidence!

Auke City was the closest main city to Lord Grim, so he could even save on teleportation. Why did He Who Never Tires just happen to run here?

After thinking for a moment, Ye Xiu suddenly understood a bit. He Who Never Tires came here probably aiming for the place he had just left. Over there was the main battlefield of Blue Brook Guild's elite first and second teams. Whether they were organized or unorganized players, it was difficult for them to be their opponents. Blue Brook Guild's fans even consciously avoided them, after all, the upper limit of a team was only one hundred people, and those beyond a hundred couldn't enjoy damage immunity. Blue Brook Guild's fans were afraid of not being killed by the opponent, but falling under the fierce bombardment of their own elite team.

Such a place was undoubtedly a good place to scavenge. Ye Xiu and the others had run here to scavenge, and He Who Never Tires, the expert of scavenging, naturally had the same judgment. It was just that this guy could go straight here as soon as he logged on. Ye Xiu thought of the situation when he first encountered He Who Never Tires and was even more certain that this guy definitely had small accounts. Maybe He Who Never Tires hadn't been online for the past few days, but other small accounts hadn't been idle.

But at least He Who Never Tires appeared again today, so he definitely had to keep an eye on him and teach him a lesson.

Now that he knew which way He Who Never Tires was going, Ye Xiu immediately guessed his route with 80 or 90% certainty. Yue Ziqing was also constantly sending Ye Xiu messages. When Ye Xiu saw the direction of his advance, he was even more convinced of his guess that this guy was heading this way.

"That's really convenient!" Ye Xiu was happy, so he simply didn't have Lord Grim hurry back. He would just wait here. What was the hurry to meet? Taking a little more time was fine. After Tang Rou and Steamed Bun unloaded their goods, they could go directly to the resurrection point and guard it.

Since Lord Grim had emptied his inventory first, the fully loaded Soft Mist and Steamed Bun Invasion immediately couldn't keep up with his pace. They were still struggling to transport the goods in the back, and Chen Guo had also changed accounts to continue trading with the two of them. They hadn't even met up yet when He Who Never Tires arrived one step ahead.

He Who Never Tires' movement speed was too fast. Soon, the Yueyun players who were watching him couldn't keep up with him. But at this time, Ye Xiu was full of confidence. He believed that he had hidden in He Who Never Tires' inevitable path.

"I have to find a place to ambush," Ye Xiu assessed the surrounding environment. He wasn't trying to ambush. He was afraid that He Who Never Tires would see him from afar and detour, and then chasing him would take another effort. After looking around, Ye Xiu skillfully shrunk Lord Grim behind a tree on the side, occasionally poking his head out to take a look.

"Hey, Lou Lan, you're here too..." As a result, He Who Never Tires hadn't been seen yet, but Ye Xiu accidentally caught a glimpse of Zhan Lou Lan from Lord Grim's perspective.

"Ah... yes..." Zhan Lou Lan was originally watching the scavenging over there. Later, the three of them scavenged and ran, so he left. As a result, there were such and such news halfway. He originally wanted to follow Ye Xiu's Lord Grim to see the excitement, but in the end, he saw Lord Grim lurking beside the road preparing to sneak attack...

If it were someone else, sneak attacking would be normal. But you're a god, sneaking attacking a player in an online game? Zhan Lou Lan felt a little unbearable to watch. He felt a little sympathy for He Who Never Tires, but he didn't expect to be seen by the god first.

"Oh, I'm passing by, passing by," Zhan Lou Lan said.

"Oh? Are you also here to scavenge?" Ye Xiu asked.

"Ah... no, just walking around..." Zhan Lou Lan said. Of course he disdained scavenging, but since the god was scavenging, he couldn't reveal his contempt for scavenging, so he had to say that.

"Oh, if you have nothing to do, that's great. Help me. Steamed Bun and Soft Mist are in the back, carrying a lot of weight and walking very slowly. We have something to do, so go help pick up the goods in their hands and free up their weight," Ye Xiu said.

How could Zhan Lou Lan refuse such a small favor? But the problem was... he was a dignified guild leader, soon to be the captain of a professional team, and even the owner of this team. Now he had to do this? What was this? This was even worse than scavenging. This was helping a scavenger move goods... Zhan Lou Lan felt that he might as well have said that he had scavenged and returned fully loaded!

Although he thought so in his heart, Zhan Lou Lan still went. It was just a pity that he couldn't see the scene of the god sneak attacking others.

Although He Who Never Tires' movement speed was fast, he was relatively far away. In the end, Tang Rou and Steamed Bun's characters passed by here first.

"Hey, boss!" Steamed Bun greeted enthusiastically.

"Hmm? Zhan Lou Lan helped you move some things?" Ye Xiu said.

"Yeah! That guy can move so many things!" Steamed Bun exclaimed.

"Of course, he's a Berserker. His strength growth is naturally very high, and his equipment also stacks strength," Ye Xiu said.

"I think my strength shouldn't be worse than anyone else," Steamed Bun said.

"I'm talking about strength, the character attributes in the game..." Ye Xiu said.

"It's a pity. If I had that much strength, I could move more things," Steamed Bun said.

"You'll have more when your equipment is better..." Ye Xiu said. In fact, although the Rogue class's damage is based on strength, stacking attributes rarely focuses on strength. Many of the Rogue's skills have abnormal effects, and to enhance these effects, the Spirit attribute is very important. How to choose between them, like how Battle Mages match strength and intelligence, is a matter of habit that varies from person to person. The general configuration that is more suitable for ordinary players is to focus on strength and supplement with spirit. But high-end players will generally find a stacking scheme that best suits their style. But Steamed Bun... this eccentric guy, can he calculate such a detailed problem to the best?

Soft Mist and Steamed Bun Invasion didn't leave after arriving here. He Who Never Tires logged on and went straight here without changing his identity. If he died and resurrected, he would have to be in the original city. It was too far for the two of them to guard the resurrection point again. Moreover, Ye Xiu estimated that He Who Never Tires had learned his lesson. Once he died, he would log off directly and wouldn't resurrect again.

The three of them waited together, thinking that He Who Never Tires should appear soon. The three of them were listening with their ears perked up, but they didn't see him for a long time. Ye Xiu estimated from his movement speed that this was abnormal. He poked his head out again and saw that the figure he had already seen was gone.

"Huh? He's gone," Ye Xiu said.

"Did he find you when you poked your head out to look?" Chen Guo was also concerned about this.

"Impossible." Ye Xiu flatly denied. He knew all the settings and details of Glory. Given the distance between the two sides just now, there was no way He Who Never Tires could have seen half of his head sticking out from behind the tree.

Ye Xiu turned his perspective to look at Steamed Bun Invasion, wondering if Steamed Bun had done something strange again. But when he turned to look, Steamed Bun Invasion was honestly hiding there!

"That's strange, I'll go out and take a look." Ye Xiu was helpless. Could it be that He Who Never Tires had logged off again?
