Chapter 915 An Unexpected Encounter

Chen Guo now wished she could immediately see the regret on the faces of those two guys for missing the chance to win a championship with Team Happy. She even took this as a driving force for her efforts, loudly urging everyone in Happy to perk up.

"Of course." Everyone also faced it positively, offering their accounts to each other and busying themselves, transferring equipment from their main accounts to their alternate accounts. The equipment level of the alternate accounts was significantly lower than that of the main accounts. To maximize their benefits, the Happy players didn't mind temporarily boosting the strength of their alternate accounts to the extreme.

Everyone had alternate accounts for their respective classes, with only two exceptions.

One was Mo Fan. This guy came with his own alternate account, the Assassin character Mo Bai he used when he was a scavenger. He had leveled it to 75 at some point. Now that everyone was using alternate accounts, he didn't ask Happy for an account and just took out his own Mo Bai to use.

The other was Ye Xiu. There simply wasn't a second unspecialized account like Lord Grim to be found, and Ye Xiu didn't specifically look for a power-leveler to create another one. Actually, even if he wanted to, probably no one could power-level one. Unspecialized characters needed to complete the God Domain challenge at level 50 to enter the God Domain and level up, which was not something an ordinary person could do.

However, whether or not he had an unspecialized character didn't really affect Ye Xiu much. He casually picked up a class that someone else had left behind, equipped it with some decent gear, and started using it.

The personnel remained the same, and the classes and equipment were basically the same, so what else was there to say?

Once again, the scores of numerous players were looked down upon, and group after group was born. When the club guilds saw that they were all from Happy, they immediately understood. They were also using this kind of tactic! For this type of limited-time activity, the rewards were theoretically more valuable than unlimited activities. The club guilds would also find ways for their high-level core players to use more accounts. Now Happy was doing the same, and although everyone was even more annoyed, they couldn't use this as an excuse.

Just when everyone continued to hate Happy, later that afternoon, another impressive score suddenly appeared on the leaderboard. The major guilds were a bit numb and initially thought it was another member of Team Happy using a third account, but when they clicked to take a look, they realized that this time it wasn't Happy. This time it was from the Jia Dynasty.

How could the Jia Dynasty have such powerful people?

As old rivals who had been competing for many years, the major guilds were very clear about this. At this time, looking closely at the classes of the Jia Dynasty characters that had achieved the score, it seemed very similar to the current class composition of the Excellent Era team?

Everyone was helpless.

Happy and Excellent Era, two low-level teams playing in the Challenger League, now had scores in the Christmas event that were far above them. There was no way around it. Who told these people to not put their heart and soul into the Challenger League like they did with the professional league! The major guilds also hoped that their choices could show their skills, but everyone knew that this was impossible. Therefore, they could only stare blankly at the scores that these two guilds had achieved. It seemed that the rewards for this year's event leaderboard had nothing to do with them.

"People from Excellent Era."

All the major guilds could see it, and of course, Happy was no exception.

"Not surprising," Ye Xiu said. "Even we have so much time, let alone them?"

"In that case, the leaderboard will be up for grabs!" Wei Chen observed the current leaderboard scores. From the team leaderboard to the individual leaderboard, the scores of both sides were very close. The kind of difference that was only one or two points wouldn't be considered an advantage until the very end.

"Just do our best and don't think too much," Ye Xiu said.

The first day of the event ended just like that.

On the team leaderboard, the 55 pairs of Christmas socks of Wei Chen's Windward Formation team still ranked first. However, second place was no longer the 51 pairs of socks of Lord Grim and Steamed Bun Invasion's duo team. On the Jia Dynasty side, it was obvious that Xiao Shiqin's team, with 53 pairs of socks, ranked second. The difference of 2 pairs between them really couldn't explain who was stronger than whom. But one thing was that the Windward Formation team and the Lord Grim team each had a grand slam, while the Jia Dynasty team had achieved their score with three relatively stable results.

What if they lost this good luck? Happy's newly created alt team seemed to be illustrating this problem. The scores of 51 pairs and 47 pairs seemed to be lacking because they missed a grand slam. And this score was being closely chased by the duo of Mo Gan Lou Shou and Who Doesn't Pick Up.

"No matter what, we can't lose to them!" This was a dead order given by Chen Guo in her capacity as the boss. Although Excellent Era was also an opponent she currently hated, Mo Gan Lou Shou and Who Doesn't Pick Up were dealing too much damage, and Chen Guo's hatred temporarily shifted to them.

The next day, December 26th, the Happy players went online again and subconsciously opened the leaderboards to take a look.

The leaderboard hadn't changed much, but there were still some changes. From this, it could be seen that those teams who had obtained more than 30 pairs of socks yesterday, or individuals who had obtained more than 10 pairs, all had a certain element of luck. After another all-nighter for three rounds, they were no longer able to replicate yesterday's results. Whether they got better or worse, there were still some changes. Added to the advantage of their six rounds of completed events, some of their teams or individuals were temporarily taking the lead.

However, even they themselves knew that this was their numerical advantage, and it was only temporary. Unless Happy and Excellent Era didn't carry out any tasks today.

The Jia Dynasty also came? Ye Xiu didn't know and didn't plan to find out. In short, they easily started the event, and after just the first round, they had already completed a complete reversal.

In the second round, another reversal joined in on the fun. Mo Gan Lou Shou and Who Doesn't Pick Up also used one round of activities to throw the teams that had painstakingly occupied the top spot after six rounds of hard work to the back.

"These two guys are really too arrogant!" Chen Guo said.

Ye Xiu was caught between laughter and tears. People were just doing their best in this activity as usual. Where did the arrogance come from? Chen Guo's ability to be unreasonable and randomly label people when she disliked them was really not small.

Then the third round was carried out.

After entering the map, casually opening the leaderboard with blank data to see who was there had become a customary part of participating in this event. As a result, when Ye Xiu clicked on the leaderboard this time, he blurted out, "What a coincidence!"

Mo Gan Lou Shou, Who Doesn't Pick Up.

Ye Xiu clearly saw the names of these two people, and alongside Lord Grim and Steamed Bun Invasion, the only two two-person teams, were lined up on the leaderboard.

"Teach them a lesson!" Chen Guo immediately became excited.

"The goal is to grab socks," Ye Xiu said.

This kind of rationality and calmness made Chen Guo especially upset at this moment. Fortunately, she understood Ye Xiu's code of conduct and continued to encourage him, "They will definitely become stumbling blocks."

"Everyone is a stumbling block," Ye Xiu continued to be rational.

"Not like them, so huge!" Chen Guo emphasized.

"That's not necessarily true, it's better to see the situation clearly first," Ye Xiu said, adjusting his headset, seemingly preparing to devote himself to the game and no longer talk to Chen Guo. As a result, he turned his head and shouted, "Steamed Bun, where are you going!"

"There seems to be someone over there," Steamed Bun also shouted. "But boss, this time the wind isn't that strong, it doesn't seem necessary to speak so loudly, although speaking like this is really cool."

"Keep a low profile," Ye Xiu said.

"Understood," Steamed Bun responded, and at the same time, he controlled Steamed Bun Invasion to start walking while crouching down, indeed being very low-key.

Ten pairs of socks were refreshed and waiting to be picked up. Ye Xiu and Steamed Bun hadn't discovered them, and it seemed that other players hadn't discovered them either. The calm lasted a bit too long. At this time, everyone would think it was the map's fault.

This time the map wasn't a blizzard, but clear weather after a storm, so the sun was bright and the snow was white and bright, making it impossible to look directly at it. Countless times, a pair of socks was missed because the glare made people tear up.

"Oh dear, it's really tiring!" Steamed Bun complained. "It especially increases eye strain. Does anyone have eye drops?" Steamed Bun paid quite a bit of attention to protecting his eyes, but his words were usually not taken seriously, so although everyone heard them, they completely acted as if they hadn't heard them.

As a result, a hand flicked from a certain location, and a small bottle of eye drops flew towards Steamed Bun.

Steamed Bun caught it perfectly, and looked in that direction. The person didn't even show their head, but in that row of computers, there was only Mo Fan sitting there.

"There really are some people who bring them! Professional! Pro player!" Steamed Bun praised, and then looked at the bottle of eye drops in his hand: "How do you use this?"

"Are you really going to use it?" Tang Rou asked from the side, seemingly a little worried that Steamed Bun, who didn't know how to use it, would eat the entire bottle of eye drops.

"Give me some," Steamed Bun said.

"Tilt your head back and close your eyes," Tang Rou said, taking the eye drops from Steamed Bun's hand.

"How can you use it with your eyes closed?" Steamed Bun asked, already doing it like that.

Tang Rou used her left hand to open his eye, and with her right hand, she held up the small bottle and quickly dripped the drops in. "Okay, don't move, blink."

"As expected of Little Tang, first-rate hand speed! Look at how fast I'm blinking!" Steamed Bun said while blinking his eyes wildly.

"Very impressive," Tang Rou praised.

Having received praise, Steamed Bun blinked his eyes and continued to maintain his head-up pose, instantly looking like he had a nosebleed.

"Steamed Bun, are you done yet!" Ye Xiu asked.

"Boss, do you want some? It's cool and very comfortable," Steamed Bun recommended.

"No need, hurry up and continue the game," Ye Xiu said.

"What a pity," Steamed Bun sighed, continuing to operate his Steamed Bun Invasion, closely following his boss Lord Grim's footsteps. At this time, a pair of socks was finally picked up by a player. Everyone saw his name from the system message at the first moment, and in the second moment, they flipped through the leaderboard to find the names of all the members of his team. This was already an experienced move that everyone had made after a day of doing this event. Then, this entire team would become the target of attack and plunder, because no one knew if their socks would be transferred.

At the Snow Valley Gorge entrance, the only team currently in possession of socks encountered two uninvited guests.

The battle began, and the gunshots rang out all day, one after another.

A moment later, a system message appeared: Mo Gan Lou Shou picked up a pair of socks.

At this time, the total number of socks picked up was still 1.
