Hu Die Lan
Chapter 355 Each With Their Own Plans
“Yeah, it's good to have them help us fight the Guardian. Higher levels are always better than lower ones!” Ye Xiu said.
“But what if they intentionally slack off?” Chen Guo was still worried.
“Heh, throwing a game requires skill. If it's too obvious, wouldn't that expose them? Don't forget their identities. They're spies. They just joined the guild and then expose themselves just to prevent us from getting past the Guardian? The price is too high! Spy accounts can only be used once, and our Guardian mission isn't a one-time thing,” Ye Xiu said.
Chen Guo was completely speechless. She could only look at these high-level characters in the team, who were very important to the Xingxin guild, with sympathy. They probably still thought their spy plan was very successful, right?
Seeing that Chen Guo had no more questions, Ye Xiu turned back and asked the team again, “That's about it. Is there anything you don't understand?”
“Anyway, we'll do whatever you say, boss!” Baozi Invasion was the first to speak, his thoughts as simple as ever.
“Got it, got it.” The others also responded haphazardly, all trying hard to play the role of new members who had joined the Xingxin guild.
“Okay.” Ye Xiu responded when he saw that they understood, and then he began to operate. The original two teams of ten were split into seven teams: six teams of three and one team of two, which consisted of Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng.
“Entered.” Ye Xiu said again, and the twenty-man team was quickly teleported into the Guardian challenge dungeon.
This dungeon only had one boss, and the space was quite large, but it wasn't very deep. As soon as they entered the dungeon, they could already see the Guardian God sleeping in front of them, his outline visible in the thick fog.
“Teams 1, 2, and 3 go left; Teams 4, 5, and 6 go right,” Ye Xiu ordered. The teams in the group were obviously numbered.
So, three teams went left, and three teams went right.
“Stop,” Ye Xiu shouted.
The six teams had to stop. These instructions were so simple that even if Lan He and the others wanted to pretend to be newbies, they couldn't make mistakes on these instructions. That wouldn't make them newbies, but idiots.
“Stand in two rows on each side, melee classes in the front, ranged classes in the back. Keep a distance of 24 character widths on the left and right. Do you know how to see character widths? Click your mouse on the opposite character, then look at the coordinates displayed, then look at your own coordinates, and then slowly calculate it,” Ye Xiu patiently taught.
The spies didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It seemed that Lord Grim really regarded them as the newest of the new and was teaching them. This should have been something to be happy about. But suddenly, hearing someone lecturing them on these basic things made them want to cry.
“Mm-hmm, not bad. Mo Zhu, you need to step back a little more. You on the right, take one step to the left…” Ye Xiu began to instruct them hands-on, like directing kindergarten kids lining up.
The spies were being tormented. This was basically acting under the enemy's nose. How could they act like a newbie without revealing any flaws? How long would it take to stand in such a position appropriately? Would standing too fast make them look too skilled? Would standing too slowly make them look too stupid?
A bunch of people were in a frenzy. Some took out calculators to calculate the distance, some pretended to stand in the wrong place on purpose, and each had their own way of acting. But any mistakes were corrected by Ye Xiu. Finally, after a few minutes of dawdling, this formation was completed.
“Okay, now everyone don't move until I give the order,” Ye Xiu said.
Everyone was silent. They were already eager to slack off on purpose and quickly die after the Guardian God charged over.
“Start the fight!” Ye Xiu sent a message to Su Mucheng's Cleansing Mist.
“Mm,” Su Mucheng replied. Her Cleansing Mist had already shouldered her heavy cannon and fired an anti-tank missile.
Three shells, dragging flames, whistled through the welcoming aisle on the left and right. The spies on both sides were surging with excitement. It had finally begun. Many people couldn't help but prepare to step forward.
“Back jump three steps!” Who knew that Lord Grim would give another order at this time?
This order was also so simple that it was impossible to pretend not to know. The players on both sides had no choice but to jump back three steps. Some players who had fought this attribute-power Guardian God were very unhappy because they knew what these three back jumps meant…
*Boom boom boom!*
Three cannon shots rang out. In the thick fog, the firelight of the anti-tank gun's explosion was set against the Guardian God's massive silhouette, making it seem so small. With a roar, the silhouette quickly stood up. That towering spirit, judging from the proportions alone, made it clear that this thing and the player characters were not in the same weight class at all.
Awoo!!
Another angry roar. The huge body didn't seem clumsy at all. The Guardian God suddenly jumped and rushed out of the thick fog. His landing point was the space between the welcoming lanes on the left and right. Everyone's screen trembled. This was how Glory represented an earthquake.
The dust raised by the landing rolled in all directions like a tidal wave. Hidden in this wave was the shock wave of the Guardian God's landing, which was like the flash of a blade.
However, the three back jumps that Ye Xiu had instructed everyone to take in advance had allowed everyone to avoid this shock wave.
Those spies who were familiar with this Guardian God were just pretending to be ignorant newbies. They would be swept away by the shock wave first, and then casually stepped on by the Guardian God a few times and they would be dead. Who knew that Lord Grim's command had calculated these distances accurately? His idiotic command made it impossible for them to find an opening.
“Wait for my instructions before attacking!!” Ye Xiu emphasized again. The would-be heroic spies, who had long been eager to move, were too embarrassed to act recklessly and could only stand obediently on both sides.
Ye Xiu's Lord Grim had already drawn the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, holding it in front of him like a rifle. With a burst of fire, he fired a shot.
The fireworks from this explosion on the Guardian God's body made people feel that it was completely useless. However, this was just the effect created by the game, and the damage to the data was not bad at all. Lord Grim jumped back while continuously firing several shots. Cleansing Mist followed him on his left and right, constantly attacking the Guardian God.
The players on the side looked on with some confusion. If Lord Grim was supposed to establish aggro, why was this Launcher still attacking? What kind of strategy was this?
While everyone was puzzled, the Guardian God had already charged forward. With his tall stature, each step he took covered several character widths. In just a few steps, he had already rushed in front of the two and raised a foot to stomp down on them. (To be continued. If you want to know what happens next, please log in.
