Chapter 207 Your Strategy

Chapter 41 Why?

"Why?" Mo Guang's character didn't even turn its head, continuing to stare at the pile of pets in front of him.

A level 30 Summoner already possessed two types of small sprites: lightning and fire. Two of each could be summoned, existing for 30 seconds. In addition, there were goblins that could be learned at level 5. These biological summons existed for a longer time, 90 seconds. Thus, a level 30 Summoner, when summoning their maximum number of pets, had a total of five. At this moment, they were buzzing around aimlessly in Mo Guang's field of vision.

Judging from the constant movements of his character, Ye Xiu knew that he was also trying to command his pets. However… his actions were truly not fast enough or accurate enough, not to mention there were quite a few incorrect actions. With Ye Xiu's ten years of Glory experience, he couldn't even discern his operational intent.

Mo Guang wasn't your average newbie. From the fact that he could write a "foolproof" guide, Ye Xiu knew that his theoretical knowledge was quite solid. So, this guy's operations should have a purpose, not a chaotic mess like a true newbie. But his actions were just too shoddy. Watching his pets run around randomly, stand there blankly, and get blocked by trees, Ye Xiu really couldn't stand it anymore.

"My boss is giving you pointers, listen carefully! You'll benefit from it for life, got it!" Baozi Invasion threw a brick to get Mo Guang's attention.

Mo Guang finally turned his perspective to look at Lord Grim beside him, "Lord Grim…"

"I've read your 'foolproof' guide," Ye Xiu said, as his Lord Grim charged out. Mo Guang's pets were in complete chaos, but he did have an opponent. This opponent was a bit flustered at first, but quickly realized that this Summoner was no threat at all. However, he didn't want to attract any more trouble, and was looking for a way to escape. Ye Xiu wasn't counting on Mo Guang to command his pets to stop him.

"Oh? How is it?" Ye Xiu's words finally caught Mo Guang's attention, and he quickly chased after him.

As a result, Lord Grim stood there without moving or saying anything.

"Hey, hey? How is it?" Mo Guang asked anxiously, only to hear a "boom" from the other side. He glanced over and saw Lord Grim using a Falling Flower Palm to blast the player who had been launched into the air over towards him.

"Shadow Clone Technique!" Mo Guang shouted, then felt depressed. Only knowing the theory, he didn't have the ability to immediately identify the Shadow Clone Technique, and actually spoke to a shadow clone.

The player whom Lord Grim had blasted to his side with a palm strike managed to perform a quick recovery and flipped back to his feet. In a panic, he looked at Mo Guang next to him, and immediately used a skill.

Mo Guang was in a flurry, wanting to roll and wanting to walk, and a dozen different ideas flashed through his mind, but he couldn't execute any of them. Just as he was about to get hit, there were three more consecutive "boom, boom, boom" sounds. Lord Grim fired an Anti-Tank Gun from over there, blasting the player away, and then quickly rushed back.

"Written well, very detailed, without any flaws, but… impractical." As soon as Lord Grim returned, Ye Xiu continued his conversation with Mo Guang, transitioning smoothly.

"Hmph… impractical again," Mo Guang said unhappily. This was the most common comment he received after his guide was released. He thought that a super expert like Lord Grim would have some extraordinary evaluation, but it turned out to be so common. Mo Guang immediately felt that this expert was just an ordinary person.

"That's right! Such a complex and meticulous strategy, it's impossible for the average person to complete from start to finish," Ye Xiu said.

"That's because their skill isn't high enough. If their skill is high enough, they can naturally do it," Mo Guang said.

"I can do it, but I won't follow your guide," Ye Xiu said.

"Why?" Mo Guang was stunned.

"Because I can," Ye Xiu said.

"What do you mean by that?" Mo Guang was very puzzled.

"For those who can do it, there are many easy ways to kill those Bosses. Why would they need to carefully follow your guide step by step?" Ye Xiu said.

Mo Guang was stunned.

"This kind of monster-killing guide is supposed to be written for people who don't know how to kill. The simpler and easier the method, the better. But you're doing the opposite, making the method so complicated that only high-level players can do it. High-level players don't need this kind of guide at all. You're writing a guide for people who don't need a guide… isn't that impractical?" Ye Xiu said.

"This…" Mo Guang was completely speechless. This principle was very simple, but he didn't know why he hadn't realized it himself. He was very pleased with himself after he researched his first "foolproof" guide, but it was never accepted. He didn't give up, and continued to write one after another, hoping that someone would see the correctness of his guide.

And now he finally understood. His guide was indeed correct, but at the same time, it was practically useless. As Ye Xiu said, his guides were written for people who didn't need a guide…

Mo Guang stood there blankly, even forgetting to control his pets, until he heard Lord Grim, who was fighting beside him, say, "You defined your guide as a 'foolproof' guide? That's wrong, this guide is not foolproof at all, this guide is too high-end."

"It's just a waste…" Mo Guang murmured.

"Do you want to make valuable high-end guides?" Ye Xiu laughed.

"Of course."

"Go study dungeons!" Ye Xiu said.

"Dungeons?"

"How to achieve the highest dungeon record, that's where a truly high-end guide is needed," Ye Xiu said.

"There are already many guides like that!" Mo Guang said. In fact, he only had the idea of writing a detailed Boss guide after seeing that there were such detailed dungeon walkthrough guides, but no detailed guides on killing Bosses. And now he finally understood that there were dungeon walkthrough guides because someone needed them; there weren't Boss guides of this type, not because no one could write them, but because there was no need for such guides in that area.

"Perhaps you can write a better one," Ye Xiu said.

Mo Guang immediately perked up, "I wrote one about you guys clearing the Graveyard of Resentment, have you seen it?"

"I've seen it," Ye Xiu said.

"How was it?" Mo Guang was a little nervous again. Although he had learned from Baozi Invasion that his deduction about Orange weapons was somewhat unreliable, he still wanted to know exactly how wrong he was.

"It was pretty good, but you didn't discover enough," Ye Xiu said.

"Oh?"

"The number two Boss, Zombie Beryl, can also be glitched," Ye Xiu said.

"How to glitch it?" Mo Guang was surprised.

"Do you know about the cave in the wall at the Boss's eight o'clock direction?"

"I don't know…"

"That's where it is, just send the Boss inside."

"Then how many Orange weapons does your team have?" Mo Guang quickly asked.

"One," Ye Xiu said. At that time, Huang Shaotian's Flowing Tree had the level 25 Blood-Sucking Light Sword.

"Ah…" Mo Guang's face was burning! He had confidently deduced that they had several Orange equipment, but he believed that Lord Grim had no need to deceive him.

"But there's also a Silver weapon," Ye Xiu said.

"Si-Silver weapon?" Mo Guang was surprised, and couldn't help but notice the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella in Lord Grim's hand.

It just so happened that Lord Grim blasted the opponent who was about to float away with a palm strike, then quickly added damage with a Draw Sword. Mo Guang saw up close that the weapon, which was originally a spear, was suddenly put away, and then a sword was drawn from underneath to use the Draw Sword skill.

"That's it…" Mo Guang shouted.

"That's right."

"It can change forms, so there's no cooldown between weapon switches," Mo Guang shouted.

"Well, for a newbie, you seem to know quite a bit about old-school playstyles like the Unspecialized class," Ye Xiu said.

"Uh… when I was researching your Graveyard of Resentment strategy, I specifically looked up a lot of information about the Unspecialized class," Mo Guang said.

"Oh…" Ye Xiu responded. "That's right, this weapon basically overcomes the cooldown restriction of the Unspecialized class's inability to switch weapons freely as needed."

As Ye Xiu spoke, Lord Grim chased after another target. Mo Guang completely ignored his pets at this point, and hurriedly followed behind Lord Grim.

"Basically overcomes?" Mo Guang noticed Ye Xiu's wording.

"Yes, you see… switching between forms always takes a bit of time…" Ye Xiu said.

"Oh, is that something that can't be overcome at all?" Mo Guang said.

"You can only increase the speed of your hand, and be as fast as possible," Ye Xiu said.

"This weapon is amazing!" Mo Guang exclaimed.

"Do you also study self-made equipment?" Ye Xiu asked.

"I've paid attention to it, but it's too complicated. I think you need to completely understand the entire game's settings first. And a lot of practice is indispensable, and it requires a large amount of money to invest. Ordinary players probably can't play with this," Mo Guang said.

"You're right," Ye Xiu sighed in agreement. Professional clubs research self-made equipment, have large guilds to support them, and have real money to invest, so that they can constantly arm their professional-level accounts with self-made equipment. But what about the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella? It doesn't have such manpower and resources to back it up, and it relies purely on personal management and hard work in the game. Ye Xiu wouldn't dare say that there isn't a second self-made equipment like this in Glory, but no matter which one it is, the hardships and sweat paid are definitely beyond words.

"Then your Silver weapon…" Mo Guang wondered.

"That was a long time ago," Ye Xiu sighed.

"Because the Unspecialized class can't level up, so… it became useless?" As expected of someone who specifically studied the Unspecialized class, as a newbie, he accurately guessed it.

"Yeah."

"Then now?"

"You can go to the Heavenly Domain to level up at level 50," Ye Xiu said.

"Go to the Heavenly Domain at level 50…" Mo Guang gasped in disbelief. He hadn't discovered this setting while researching the Unspecialized class. However, the challenge to enter the Heavenly Domain has always been regarded as a major difficulty in Glory's online game. With each adjustment of the level cap, the difficulty of the Heavenly Domain's entry challenge will also increase. The current maximum level is 70, but this person wants to complete the Heavenly Domain challenge at level 50. You must know that most of the content in the Heavenly Domain's challenge requires players to complete it alone, without receiving any help from other players.
