Chapter 117 The Underground Jail

The underground jail was dark and damp. As soon as the two characters entered, they stepped into a small puddle. The splashing water made a crisp sound in the underground. Not far ahead were a few small monsters who immediately turned their heads when they heard the sound, and then rushed over quickly.

This underground jail dungeon in City of Sin didn't give players any time to prepare upon entering; the fight started right away. Being teleported into a puddle to make noise was completely intentional.

Tang Rou liked this straightforwardness. Her Chasing Haze had already rushed up to engage in battle, the Scarlet Moon spear in her hand turning into a crimson glow. In this dark environment, the color wasn't dazzling at all, but rather seemed erratic and uncertain.

Ye Xiu didn't say much. Lord Grim also followed closely, charging forward with his battle spear. The two of them were more than enough to deal with this dungeon, but they couldn't possibly set any records, so they skipped any tactics. Ye Xiu was here today to study tactics. Seeing that Tang Rou could handle these few small monsters, he ignored them and continued to rush forward, starting his practice at a position he needed.

It naturally took Tang Rou some time to deal with those few small monsters. After all, she was alone, and the dungeon elite monsters were so durable. After she cleared them all and rushed to Lord Grim's side, she found that he was killing even slower than her, much slower.

"What are you doing?" Tang Rou asked curiously. Although Ye Xiu usually didn't go all out in dungeons, he had never slacked off like this before.

"I'm researching something. You keep killing yours," Ye Xiu said.

"Oh." Tang Rou didn't pay much attention and continued to rush forward. This run was supposed to be a two-person run, but it was basically each person killing their own. Tang Rou pushed forward for a while, and when she turned her head to look, Lord Grim was still entangled with a few small monsters in the same place. And in Glory, there was a range for sharing experience among team members. If the two were too far apart, there was no reason for one person's experience to fall on the other for no reason.

Chasing Haze was about to leave this range, so Tang Rou had no choice but to turn Chasing Haze back.

"Aren't you done yet?" Tang Rou asked after Chasing Haze ran back, but she didn't ask Chasing Haze to help.

"Yeah, you come and help me try..." Ye Xiu immediately pulled Tang Rou into his testing team.

So, in this dungeon run, most of the monsters were cleared by Tang Rou, and Ye Xiu always stopped at a certain point, often for ten minutes, or even longer.

This underground jail dungeon in City of Sin, after three runs in one morning, Ye Xiu had basically determined everything. But if it were someone else, the energy and time sacrificed would be far more than that.

If it was just clearing monsters, it wouldn't be so slow. The main reason was Ye Xiu's research, which involved stopping and starting.

The first run ended like this, and Tang Rou said nothing.

In the second run, Ye Xiu was no longer like this. He became more active in killing monsters than Tang Rou, especially in the few places where he had dawdled at the beginning. He rushed up alone, killing more seriously and efficiently than anywhere else.

"How is it?" Tang Rou asked from the side. She had noticed that Ye Xiu was researching something. After all, she had helped Ye Xiu as an assistant several times, and after listening to Ye Xiu's explanations, she could see that the purpose of Ye Xiu's attempts was to clear the dungeon faster.

"Not bad." Ye Xiu's research went smoothly.

"For record-breaking?" Tang Rou asked.

"Yeah, but we don't need it," Ye Xiu said.

"Then what's it for?" Tang Rou asked.

"To sell it to the major guilds as a textbook!" Ye Xiu laughed.

"They can't research it themselves? Do they have to rely on you?" Tang Rou asked.

"That's hard to say," Ye Xiu admitted.

Ye Xiu improved the efficiency of clearing dungeons by innovating and researching new tactics. Was he the only one who could do this? Even Ye Xiu himself knew that this was not necessarily the case.

Dungeons are ultimately static. It's much easier to arrange dungeon tactics than to make tactical decisions in arena combat. Without professional players, many veteran players, as long as they are willing to spend time researching these dungeons, have the ability to find more efficient new methods.

Ye Xiu's special thing isn't that he can find these methods, but that he can find the most accurate method in the shortest time with the fastest speed.

For example, Tyrannical Ambition.

Tyrannical Ambition had already bought a strategy from Ye Xiu once. For the most part, it was still the method that had been circulating for ten years, but in some individual places, corrections had been made. These finishing touches immediately improved the efficiency of the entire method. This approach gave Jiang You a lot of inspiration.

Jiang You, the president of Tyrannical Ambition, was now, like Chen Yehui, stuck in the tenth server.

Jiang You certainly didn't have the confidence to compare himself to the Great God Ye Qiu. However, dungeons were just dungeons. These things should be more familiar to their online game experts. Some of the ideas in Ye Qiu's strategy gave Jiang You inspiration. He felt that he had only lacked such inspiration all along, not the ability.

Now that inspiration had been inspired, Jiang You felt that they might not need to exchange materials for these strategies. Perhaps they could try to create something themselves.

Jiang You was now creating.

From last night until now, all the available accounts and characters at hand had been used. He had crushed this dungeon countless times. Since many of the accounts used were level 70 accounts, this dungeon, which was less than level 40, could still be easily dealt with.

The document that Jiang You opened to create the strategy was not empty. It already had a lot of content. Just now, he had a new discovery. At this time, he was writing freely in the document. Jiang You felt that he was in a very good state, and this strategy could probably be completed before lunch.

"President, lunch is ready."

At noon, when his subordinates in the studio called him, Jiang You indeed typed the last punctuation mark. No, it should be an exclamation mark. Jiang You was excited, and deleted the period he had just typed, using four exclamation marks in a row to express his excited mood at the moment.

Saving the document, closing the document, Jiang You stood up with a radiant face: "What's for lunch?"

After a sleepless night, it was now this time again, but Jiang You didn't feel sleepy at all, mainly because he was in a very good mood.

The Christmas event itself was very rewarding; taking advantage of the opportunity of the event, he also regained the First Line Canyon record that had made him lose face; and now, the Sin City dungeon record was about to be taken by them first, and spring had already arrived in Jiang You's heart.

"President, the tenth server is not bad, huh?" A subordinate in the studio asked.

"Yeah, not bad, not bad," Jiang You said with a smile.

Everyone was also happy. Ever since Jiang You personally intervened in the affairs of the tenth server, the online game studio directly under their Tyrannical Ambition club had been shrouded in gloom. None of the people in this room participated in the pioneering work in the tenth server, but they were also greatly affected by the situation in the tenth server.

After Jiang You repeatedly ran into walls in the tenth server, he made more demanding demands on their work. Over these days, everyone in this room had been reprimanded.

But since the Christmas event, it seemed that the rain was about to clear up. The president's face was smiling every day. There were no more frequent lectures, and from time to time, he would tell jokes to everyone, although the jokes were not very funny.

After the meal, Jiang You didn't go to sleep. He directly logged into his character in the tenth server to contact Ye Du Hantan. But at this time, Ye Du Hantan was not the person himself, but just someone leveling up the account, not the president of the tenth server who issued orders. Jiang You slapped his head, realizing that he had forgotten this.

However, since they could help Ye Du Hantan log in, the two were obviously together, and soon Ye Du Hantan's real body was also called over. Jiang You handed over the strategy that he had painstakingly researched, and asked Ye Du Hantan to quickly select people to practice it properly.

"Did you get it from Ye Qiu?" The first question Ye Du Hantan asked after receiving the strategy was this.

"Ye Qiu? Who is Ye Qiu? Wouldn't we only look for him if there was really no other way? I wrote this strategy myself," Jiang You said.

"Oh, oh..." Ye Du Hantan didn't dare to say much. In his opinion, Ye Qiu would definitely continue to sell strategies, and the president here was competing with him, and also made a strategy. The president's strategy, Ye Qiu's strategy... Although Ye Du Hantan emotionally wanted to side with the president, but... putting these two people side by side, even a brainless person wouldn't think that the president was the more skilled one, right?

"But it's just a dungeon strategy..." Ye Du Hantan finally thought so, and immediately gathered people to step up their practice. Everyone's accounts in the tenth server had already run out of Sin City dungeon attempts, so Ye Du Hantan also told everyone to use their own high-level accounts, or borrow accounts from other servers, and familiarize themselves with the tactics in the strategy first.

While everyone was carrying out their orders, Ye Du Hantan received another message, opened it, and saw it was Lord Grim.

"Brother, do you want a strategy?"

"Sorry, we already have one," Ye Du Hantan replied.

"Oh? Who made it for you? Zhang Xinjie?" Ye Xiu asked.

Ye Du Hantan didn't answer for a moment. People thought it was Zhang Xinjie, and if he said that it was President Jiang You, it would obviously be a step down. It was like someone saying they had a big meal for lunch, and you couldn't proudly say that you ate instant noodles. Instant noodles couldn't help you gain any sense of superiority.

"Then don't worry about it," Ye Du Hantan finally replied, feeling a little guilty in his heart. He was too embarrassed to say it was the president, because at that moment, he felt that mentioning the president's name was a bit low-class, a bit embarrassing.

Ye Qiu, even if he was their Tyrannical Ambition's great nemesis, was still Ye Qiu after all. With their characters going up, Ye Du Hantan really felt that they didn't even have the qualifications to be a nemesis...
