Chapter 1125 Guan Rongfei

Guan Rongfei, in terms of his position, was just an ordinary technician in the technical department of Excellent Era. But in terms of importance, he was the true core figure of the technical department. His passion for researching various Silver equipment was in no way inferior to the professional players' pursuit of victory. Hearing about the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella at this moment, this guy was already impatient, making Ye Xiu have no choice but to explain with a wry smile, "Wait a moment!"

As he spoke, Su Mucheng came out of the room, carrying a large suitcase. The main purpose of this trip back was for her to pack up some of her things.

"Rongfei is going with us too," Ye Xiu said to her.

"Really?" Su Mucheng looked at Guan Rongfei cheerfully, "Then you're in luck. There's plenty for you to do over there."

"Can we go?" Guan Rongfei's eagerness would have chilled the hearts of Excellent Era people if they saw it. He had worked in Excellent Era for so many years, but this guy had no feelings for it at all. It just so happened that Excellent Era was about to disband, but judging by his appearance, even if it hadn't disbanded and someone came to him and said, "Hey, want to research the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella? Want to go?" This guy would probably turn around and leave immediately!

The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella of Lord Grim had been reported to the club by the Excellent Era online game department after they came into contact with it in the game very early on. The Excellent Era technical department had also done some research, and Guan Rongfei came into contact with this genius creation at that time. However, because the use of this weapon was limited to unspecialized characters, it didn't have much value for Excellent Era, so the research wasn't very in-depth. But that couldn't stop Guan Rongfei from researching in his spare time to see how this thing was made.

"You're just leaving like that? Don't you have anything to take with you?" Ye Xiu was a little speechless looking at Guan Rongfei.

"Oh, right!" Guan Rongfei slapped his forehead and ran off.

Before long, this guy had already run back quickly, empty-handed, and didn't seem to have packed anything. But he said with a relieved expression, "Now it's all right."

"What… did you pack?" Su Mucheng asked.

"The research data I did on the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella. I almost forgot." Guan Rongfei took a mobile hard drive out of his pocket, waved it in front of the two, and then put it back in his pocket, looking at the two of them with anticipation. His expression was clearly asking, "Aren't we leaving yet?"

"Let's go, let's go," Ye Xiu said, taking the suitcase from Su Mucheng's side. The three of them left together, but they ran into Tao Xuan, who was coming out of the training room, halfway.

Seeing Guan Rongfei with the two of them, Tao Xuan understood something, but he didn't say anything. He just nodded in their direction as a greeting. As for Guan Rongfei, he didn't even glance at the boss who had paid him for several years. He walked past with his head down.

"Dancing Rain, name your price!" Ye Xiu said to Tao Xuan.

Tao Xuan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of the promise he had made when he went to Xingxin to find Ye Xiu. At that time, he thought Ye Xiu would mention One Autumn Leaf, but he didn't expect it to be Dancing Rain.

"450,000!" Tao Xuan said.

Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng looked at each other.

This price, of course, shouldn't be the true value of Dancing Rain. As the number one Launcher character in Glory, Dancing Rain was quite genuine. It wouldn't be surprising if the price was 10 million.

450,000! If it were anyone else, they would definitely think they had misheard, but Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng were very clear about the origin of this number. 450,000 was the price Tao Xuan paid for Excellent Era to buy out this character back then.

In the early days of the team's establishment, all the characters were brought in by each player when they joined, all of which were characters that these experts had honed in the game themselves. The club operators realized that powerful characters would be an important asset of the club, so at that time, they actively took the ownership of the characters from the players into the team's hands. That's how the current model came about: the ownership of the characters belongs to the club, and it's rare for the characters to belong to the players individually. After the initial stage, the club's resource advantages were brought into play. When new players joined, the club would directly provide characters, which were usually stronger than the players' own online game characters.

Su Mucheng joined the league in the fourth season, and by this time it was rare for players to bring their own powerful characters. However, sometimes players would continue to use their own characters for some special reasons. Because the characters prepared by the players weren't too strong anyway, and the club wouldn't pay too much to buy them, it was just like giving the players a signing fee.

Dancing Rain was accepted by Excellent Era in this context. A price of 450,000 was definitely not something that any random online game character could be sold for, because Ye Xiu had also put some effort into this character at the time. However, for an unknown character, the price could only be like this.

The Dancing Rain of that time couldn't be compared to today.

Today's Dancing Rain, in addition to the luxurious equipment, also has years of improvement costs, and the fame halo of being the number one Launcher. Joining a team with this character is not only an improvement in strength, but also an increase in influence.

For example, when Team Samsara bought the Striker character Zhandyiluanfei from Team Tiny Herb last summer, they actually disassembled it into equipment. This situation was extremely rare. In the end, it was because the influence of Zhandyiluanfei wasn't big enough. It wasn't like Hundred Blossoms, where the fans' nostalgia for the character alone could send his operator to the All-Star.

Zhandyiluanfei didn't have this weight, so it was dismantled. If it were a God-level character, let alone the fans' protests, even Samsara wouldn't be willing to part with it.

The Dancing Rain of the past was only 450,000. Years have passed, and even if the character strength of Dancing Rain hasn't improved at all, reaching this level of fame, the price of this character will never stop at this point.

Offering 450,000 now is undoubtedly a friendship price given by Tao Xuan.

"Okay, let's do it this way!" Ye Xiu nodded and didn't say anything more.

He could feel that everything had come to an end. This transaction of 450,000 was probably the last exchange between the two sides with feelings involved. From now on, they would go their separate ways. Whether there would be any intersection in the future, he didn't know, but everything in the past would never come again.

"Good luck." Tao Xuan extended his right hand to Ye Xiu.

Ye Xiu looked at it, and finally reached out and shook it.

"That goes without saying." After saying that, he turned and left.

Guan Rongfei kept urging them with his eyes, forcing Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng to speed up their pace. When they reached the bottom of the building, at the entrance of the training center, they saw two people entering through the main entrance.

"Miss Su Mucheng… Ye Qiu… Oh no, it should be God Ye Xiu." The person on the left stopped when he saw the three of them, and greeted them. Then he looked at Guan Rongfei, whom he didn't recognize, and didn't say anything.

Ye Xiu looked at Su Mucheng in confusion. Although he was also a God, he had kept a low profile for so many years, so he wasn't familiar with this kind of celebrity situation where others recognized him but he didn't recognize them. Su Mucheng smiled and nodded at the person, saying hello.

The person didn't introduce himself, but continued to chat with Su Mucheng, "I heard you're joining Team Xingxin?"

"Yes."

"That's a pity. I really hope we can have the opportunity to cooperate." The person said.

Su Mucheng just smiled.

"Well… the three of you, please excuse us. We'll take our leave first." The person didn't want to chat any further. After greeting them, he left.

"People from Tiny Herb. They're here now. They must have some intention of acquiring someone…" Su Mucheng explained before Ye Xiu could ask. Because Ye Xiu had kept a low profile in the past, he was only familiar with the players in the circle. He rarely came into contact with other personnel. He hadn't met this person.

"Oh…" Ye Xiu nodded after hearing Su Mucheng's explanation.

"It should… be about Qiu Fei's transfer, right?" Su Mucheng guessed. Tiny Herb had always been very frank about their interest in Qiu Fei. They had already expressed this interest during the Challenger League, and they obviously regarded this as a key transfer target regardless of whether Excellent Era was relegated or not. But now that Excellent Era was in such a situation, this deal would probably make Tiny Herb feel more confident!

Ye Xiu thought of the figure who was still training at this time, with a spirit of "I won't give up even if the world ends." Tiny Herb… would he go?

Just as he was thinking this, the door of the center was pushed open again, and another person came in. Not only Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng, but even Guan Rongfei knew this person. In the past year, this person had served as the vice-captain of Excellent Era. He looked to the future and gave the relegated Excellent Era a helping hand in the snow. As a result, the charcoal didn't burn too brightly, and he was about to freeze to death with Excellent Era. Xiao Shiqin's figure seemed to have this kind of sadness. Less than a month after the end of the Challenger League finals, this guy looked like he had lost a whole circle of weight.

The two sides collided at the door, speechless for a long time, until Guan Rongfei once again showed an impatient expression without mercy.

"You haven't left yet?" Ye Xiu asked.

"Yeah." Xiao Shiqin nodded.

"What are you planning to do?" Ye Xiu asked.

"I don't know." Xiao Shiqin shook his head. Sacrificing a year and making a fairly decisive decision, the result was a complete failure. The loss in the Challenger League was also a big blow to Xiao Shiqin.

"Why don't you just come to our Xingxin?" Ye Xiu said. Xiao Shiqin's contract was only for one year, which meant that he, like Su Mucheng, would be out of contract at the end of June and would be a free agent. Without transfer fees, Xingxin was still willing to try to get such a player.

"Xingxin?" Xiao Shiqin was stunned for a moment, but shook his head with a wry smile. "What can I do at Xingxin? Xingxin doesn't need me."

Ye Xiu was stunned. Xiao Shiqin was good at tactics, but Ye Xiu was already in charge of Xingxin. The loss in the Challenger League was actually Xiao Shiqin's loss to Ye Xiu in a tactical contest. This loss made him lose his confidence in front of Ye Xiu. Obviously, he didn't think he could play any value if he went to Xingxin.

"I have something to do. I'll go first." Xiao Shiqin didn't seem to want to talk to Ye Xiu any further. After greeting him, he left in a hurry.

"What a pity." Ye Xiu looked at Xiao Shiqin's back with regret.

"Are we leaving or not!" Guan Rongfei was anxious again.

"Let's go, let's go, let's go." Ye Xiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and led this guy away from Excellent Era. Walking out of the Excellent Era gate, Ye Xiu couldn't help but look back again.

He was afraid that he would never come back here again.
