Hu Die Lan
Chapter 150 Eternal Life Among the Flowers
Gu Fei's words stunned Han Jia Gongzi. Gu Fei's pure intention of "using kung fu" in online gaming was beyond the comprehension of players like Han Jia Gongzi. For a moment, he couldn't answer Gu Fei.
"Alright, let's talk about it tomorrow! The four of you are going to the guild war soon, right?" You Ge said to the four members of the guild, including Gu Fei.
The four nodded and left in silence. Although they were going to the same place, the four unconsciously distanced themselves, appearing somewhat estranged.
Only You Ge and Jian Gui remained in the mercenary square. You Ge wiped his sweat and peeked outside the corner of the wall, "Let's go quickly! We'll be seen by Mu Yun's people in a while."
Jian Gui smiled faintly, "I'm not afraid, I can Stealth."
You Ge was stunned, patted Jian Gui, and smiled wryly, "You ah..."
Even so, the two still quietly detoured away. The members of Gongzi's elite team had almost all met the people from the Mu Yun Mercenary Group, and their memories were still fresh. They were likely to be recognized.
Under normal circumstances, everyone competed fairly in this kind of competition, and there was no death penalty, so few people would hold grudges because of it. But there were always exceptions, such as those who were too arrogant or too foul-mouthed. But these were mostly caused by issues of character. As for Mu Yun and his group, it was mainly extreme unwillingness that had turned into resentment, and they really needed to vent.
Jian Gui and You Ge made a circle and left the mercenary square. "Want to sit in the tavern?" You Ge suggested.
Jian Gui didn't object, so they went to Little Lei Tavern. They saw that their usual private room was occupied, so they found another place to sit down.
"Today's match was a bit discordant!" You Ge said as soon as he sat down.
Jian Gui smiled bitterly. It was more than just discordant. The mercenary group could have fallen apart because of it, and it wouldn't have been too much. Fortunately, everyone had been messing around together since the open beta. Although they hadn't done much together, the daily gathering at Little Lei Tavern had cultivated some feelings. Plus, they hadn't lost this match after all, which prevented things from escalating too much.
The main reason was that after so long, everyone had more or less understood Han Jia Gongzi's personality. With his extremely strong psychological endurance, everyone could barely digest Han Jia Gongzi's combat style this time after the fact.
If the mercenary group had done this on their first mission, Jian Gui believed that Yu Tian Shen Ming would have definitely packed his bags and left, and Gu Fei would probably have just hacked Han Jia Gongzi to death. That guy was very violent... Gu Fei's several super-high PK values and daily wanted missions had left a deep impression on everyone in the mercenary group.
"How much do you understand Gongzi's tactical intentions?" You Ge asked. Jian Gui had been Han Jia Gongzi's online game partner for many years. Even if he didn't have Han Jia Gongzi's tactical mind, his understanding of Han Jia Gongzi's tactical intentions was definitely beyond ordinary people. Trust between people must be built on mutual understanding. It was hard to imagine two people who neither trusted nor understood each other cooperating for so long, even if it was an online game.
Jian Gui thought for a moment and said, "His tactics today should have been decided when he entered the preparation space and determined the number of opponents."
You Ge was stunned, "That was only a few minutes before the start."
"He had several ideas early on, and he just decided to do it that way at the time. However, there was an accident at the beginning," Jian Gui said.
"Accident?"
"Wu Shang failed to trigger Counterattack before dying, which led to our temporary score falling behind. This should have been something he didn't expect," Jian Gui said.
"But..." Jian Gui continued, "It's very common for accidents to happen during the execution of tactics. As long as adjustments are made in time, that's fine, but the major strategic policy must always be adhered to. Judging from today's style of play, his purpose was to win in this way."
"Win in this way... hmm..." You Ge suddenly understood something.
The square outside the guild building had more people than the mercenary square. Players lined up and entered the teleportation array in an orderly manner. On the way to the guild, Gu Fei had been thinking about one thing: if Rebirth Purple Crystals encountered a team of Mu Yun Mercenary Group's level, it would be difficult for him and Xi Yao Wu alone to win. In that case, would he still just kill for fun, or would he proceed from the guild's interests and try his best to deal with the opponent?
Gu Fei couldn't help but think of a sentence: with great power comes great responsibility.
This sentence was basically rejected by his father in reality. Despite having such good skills, his father never allowed him to take on great missions such as maintaining world peace. This made Gu Fei very confused, and now he had actually run to the online game to act like a superman, sigh...
As Gu Fei was thinking, he had already entered the teleportation array. In the blink of an eye, he was sent into the changing room.
"Hi..." Gu Fei greeted the girls. He didn't expect the girls to arrive so early. They were almost all there. Moreover, the atmosphere today was very different from yesterday. The playful and carefree attitude was gone, and their faces were all serious.
Could it be that his and Xi Yao Wu's fierce performance in the last match had made the girls feel ashamed, and now they were going to play seriously too? Gu Fei guessed.
"Qian Li is here." Qi Yue came over to greet Gu Fei.
"Yeah!"
"How was the mercenary match?" Polite greetings. This was the greeting that had quickly become popular in Parallel World today. Before the mercenary battle, they would ask "How was the guild battle?", and before the guild battle, they would ask "How was the mercenary battle?"
"A narrow victory." Gu Fei smiled.
"Congratulations," Qi Yue said.
Then Qi Yue clapped her hands to greet the girls and began to introduce today's opponents.
As Gu Fei listened, he gradually understood why the girls were so motivated today.
Rebirth Purple Crystals' opponent today was a guild called Everlasting in the Sea of Flowers, level 1, full of 50 members. It was an unadulterated small guild. But the problem was that this guild was actually formed by a group of male players who enjoyed picking up girls. He didn't know if the system god was deliberately playing tricks, but he had randomly matched such a group of wolves with the all-female Rebirth Purple Crystals. When Qi Yue learned about the other party's information, she was immediately furious when she saw their obscene guild motto. She came back and simply told the girls about it, and immediately aroused everyone's fighting spirit.
Now that she introduced it in detail again, the more the girls talked, the angrier they became. The scope of the attack gradually expanded, from the 50 perverts in the Everlasting in the Sea of Flowers guild to all the men in the world.
Just as they were condemning the "XXX" incident at the beginning of the year, Qi Yue clapped her hands again.
The girls looked at her, thinking that Qi Yue was going to express her unique views on the matter.
Qi Yue said, "There are three minutes left until the start, let's get ready!" It was indeed a unique view. Gu Fei believed that besides Qi Yue, no one remembered what they were here for.
Too awesome! Gu Fei couldn't help thinking. Look at our pre-war meeting, united and tense, yet serious and lively.
"I will definitely kill more than you today. Humph!" Before entering the battlefield, Xi Yao Wu went around Gu Fei and dropped a sentence.
The screen flashed, and everyone was sent into the map.
"Sisters, kill!" Someone shouted, and the girls responded in unison, showing an upward spirit. Gu Fei tightly closed his mouth. He had a different opinion on the phrase "sisters."
"Charge!" Amidst the high-pitched shouts, the girls rushed forward.
In the blink of an eye, Xi Yao Wu had disappeared, leaving the priests and warriors at the very end...
What was the difference from yesterday? Gu Fei was exasperated. In order to take care of the overall speed, he and the priests and warriors were relegated to the end again.
Luo Luo was by his side, but today's Luo Luo was also very serious. She didn't immediately give Gu Fei a Heal, but asked very seriously, "Qian Li, why aren't you charging?"
"..."
"Do you need me to give you a boost?" Luo Luo raised her staff, starting to cast a Heal. Gu Fei scurried off to chase Xi Yao Wu.
Xi Yao Wu was full of fighting spirit, and also wanted to compete with Gu Fei for points. She showed the momentum of breaking through the barriers alone, and killed all the way to the opponent's birthplace, but it was empty all around, and she couldn't find a single person.
Xi Yao Wu circled around and found nothing, and shouted in exasperation, "Where are the people! Come out for me!"
"Beauty, we're here!" Someone actually answered.
Xi Yao Wu turned her head and saw a few guys on the small hill over there stretching their necks and winking at her. Xi Yao Wu rushed up without hesitation.
After running halfway, a few guys directly felt how terrifying Xi Yao Wu's speed was. The mouths that were drooling while admiring the beauty could no longer be closed. After stammering "ah ah ah ah" for a long time, someone finally said a complete sentence: "Damn, flash, this beauty is too fierce."
A few guys jumped up from the hillside and started running. And they ran very disunitedly, the five guys ran in five directions.
Xi Yao Wu rushed to the top of the hill and was stunned for a moment. She helplessly chose one to chase after. As a result, after a few steps, she saw a black figure rushing straight towards her from the opposite side. Xi Yao Wu was familiar with this figure! She quickly shouted, "Don't move, that's mine!"
Unfortunately, it was too late. The black figure swept past the target she was chasing, raised his arm, and a flash of fire rose. The target no longer existed.
"What's the situation?" Gu Fei rushed to Xi Yao Wu and asked about the battle situation.
"Don't steal my people, don't steal my people!" Xi Yao Wu grabbed Gu Fei and shook him.
"Stop it, there are still 49 more!" Gu Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After speaking, he pointed out a clear path to Xi Yao Wu: "There are people in the forest."
"Don't try to fool me!" Xi Yao Wu said hatefully, turned her head, and continued to chase the remaining four who had scattered.
"Alas, good intentions are taken as a donkey's liver and lungs..." Gu Fei sighed and walked towards the forest.
"Don't hide, come out!" Gu Fei shouted, knocking on the tree trunks after entering the forest.
"Drunk bro, Drunk bro, here!" Someone suddenly responded.
Gu Fei was stunned and looked in the direction of the sound.
"Fireball!" Gu Fei blurted out, and a fireball slowly rose.
"Pah!" Gu Fei quickly spat out a mouthful of saliva to extinguish the fireball.
"Why are you here?" Gu Fei looked at the sneaky fireball behind the tree over there.
"Our guild!" Fireball said.
"Everlasting in the Sea of Flowers?" Gu Fei asked.
"Yes, yes!" Fireball nodded repeatedly.
Gu Fei suddenly felt a little ashamed. Fireball was arguably the first friend he formally met after entering the game, but he didn't even know what guild he was in. He really didn't care about his brothers.
At this time, Fireball kicked the few trees next to him one by one: "Everyone come out, let's get to know each other. Drunk bro, I don't need to say more about how awesome he is, right?"
Five people popped out from behind the trees at once, admiring Gu Fei with the eyes of worshiping a god, and followed Fireball's title: "Drunk bro."
"Uh..." Gu Fei didn't know what to say! They were supposed to be enemies! But in the current situation, under Fireball's leadership, the other party clearly regarded him as a brother, which made it impossible for Gu Fei to attack.
"Drunk bro, how did you get into Rebirth Purple Crystals? Teach the brothers!" One person looked at Gu Fei with a hopeful expression.
So they admired him so much because of this. Gu Fei sweated profusely, and finally calmed himself down and said, "It's all a misunderstanding." Then he told the few people about what happened with Xi Xiao Tian in detail. "Later, I got familiar with the place, and they didn't kick me out after everyone was together, so I've been hanging around!" Gu Fei said.
"Ah ah! Why can't I encounter such a good thing!" A few people beat their chests and stomped their feet, as if they had lost their parents.
Gu Fei didn't know what to say again.
Fireball suddenly signaled everyone to be quiet with his unique vigilance: "Don't make noise, another beauty is coming."
A few people immediately flashed into the trees, and Fireball was no exception. But when he saw that Gu Fei was still standing there stupidly, he quickly came out again and pulled Gu Fei over: "Drunk bro, here!" Fireball lent half of his hiding tree to Gu Fei.
Hiding behind the tree, Gu Fei saw Qi Yue, Liu Xia, and a few archers and thief girls in the open space outside the forest who had arrived.
"Ah, that thin beauty is not bad," one person said, pointing at Liu Xia.
"That one is also okay, she seems to be a fighter?" He was talking about Qi Yue.
"Drunk bro, be careful, don't let them find you." Fireball felt that Gu Fei was peeping a little boldly, and quickly prompted with concern.
Gu Fei was already in tears. Damn it, what am I doing?
