Chapter 28 The Truth

When Gu Fei received July’s reply, "Sure, come on over!" he was momentarily stunned.

Considering the attitude of the girls when he first joined Rebirth: Crystal Purple, and Luo Luo's later annotations on the matter, Gu Fei thought that July would definitely refuse without hesitation. He didn't expect that not only was he not rejected, but the agreement was so quick.

Could it be a misunderstanding? Did they think I was going to introduce more girls to the group? Gu Fei suddenly realized, and quickly added a message to emphasize: "They’re male!"

Unexpectedly, July replied even faster this time: "Okay, we're still at the Little Thunder Tavern!"

She must be drunk, Gu Fei thought, but at the same time, Gu Fei felt that he could pass the responsibility, since the other party had no objection, he was just an introducer, what else could he say?

He immediately got up and looked at Zhan Wushang and Yu Tian Shen Ming, who were looking expectant, "Let's go!"

"Where to?" the two asked.

"I'll take you to see them!" Gu Fei said.

"Ah!" the two exclaimed. They were only asking for names, but they didn't expect to be able to have such a close encounter so soon.

"Qian Li works efficiently, I appreciate you." Zhan Wushang said.

"Thanks." Gu Fei smiled wryly and took the two to the private room.

"The distance between wanting to meet and meeting is only a few steps!" Yu Tian Shen Ming pretended to be profound and kept sighing. Gu Fei resisted the urge to give him a spinning kick to the face.

Lifting the curtain, he led the two into the private room, and the two sides were introduced one by one. The atmosphere was harmonious. Gu Fei observed the four girls. Their eyes were clear, and they didn't seem drunk at all. He was really confused.

Yu Tian Shen Ming had already started making connections at this point, pointing at Luo Luo and saying, "We've met before!" Then he spoke to Lie Lie and Bing Liu Li, "Didn't we just meet too?"

The three girls nodded with a smile.

Zhan Wushang saw that Yu Tian Shen Ming had taken the lead and connected with three of the four girls at once, and coughed loudly.

At this time, Gu Fei's heart skipped a beat. Yu Tian Shen Ming's two consecutive "we've met" made Gu Fei realize something was wrong. The main thing was the battle near the North Gate mailbox, Lie Lie and Bing Liu Li had seen Han Jia Gongzi and the other three beat Can Meng Si to death. This could explain a lot.

He quickly wanted to send a message to the two to remind them, but July had already cut straight to the point and asked, "Are you all from Gongzi's Elite Squad?"

Sure enough! Gu Fei cursed inwardly. This was the reason why these girls agreed so readily.

It was too late to remind the two, because Yu Tian Shen Ming had quickly replied, "We can tell you, but you have to remember to keep it a secret!"

Damn! Isn't that already an admission? Gu Fei was depressed. July solemnly promised, "Don't worry, you helped us a lot. We just want to know out of curiosity and will never tell anyone."

Yu Tian Shen Ming nodded solemnly when he heard this, "We are."

In an instant, the four girls' eyes towards Gu Fei were very different.

July's eyes told Gu Fei: "How about it? You can't deny it now, can you?" After the exposure, looking back at Gu Fei's previous behavior, it was natural to find that he was trying his best to cover up.

Gu Fei naturally felt very uncomfortable and was about to say a few words to support the scene, but Yu Tian Shen Ming had already added even faster: "We two are, Qian Li is not."

"Ah?" the girls were surprised.

Yu Tian Shen Ming looked disdainful: "He does want to join our Gongzi's Elite Squad, but he hasn't passed the assessment yet. You should know how awesome that mage in our elite squad is. Qian Li is far from him."

"Then who is that mage?" July asked cautiously.

Yu Tian Shen Ming shook his head: "I can tell you about the others, but I can't tell you about this mage. He has a lot of enemies. I'm afraid I'll cause trouble for him if I say it. Sorry." Yu Tian Shen Ming's eyes showed determination.

Gu Fei didn't expect Yu Tian Shen Ming to leave him a hand at this critical moment. It was extremely unexpected.

Disappointment appeared on the faces of the four girls. As expected, they were far more interested in the Close Combat Mage than in the others.

"Then who else is there?" Luo Luo asked.

"Jian Gui, You Ge. As for Han Jia Gongzi, you may not have heard of the name, how about Jiu Gui?" Yu Tian Shen Ming said.

"Ah!" July and Luo Luo exclaimed.

"So this is Gongzi's Elite Squad. It lives up to its reputation." July exclaimed.

"Sister July?" Bing Liu Li was obviously not an experienced online gamer and seemed a little puzzled by this.

"These five names in their elite squad are all famous figures in the online game world. It's hard to imagine that these people would gather together. It's an understatement to call them elites. They should be considered one-in-ten-thousand masters in the online game world." July said.

"You flatter us." Yu Tian Shen Ming and Zhan Wushang were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths.

To be honest, since joining Gongzi's Elite Squad, surrounded by masters of the same level, they had rarely heard such compliments. Even more deadly was that Gu Fei, the sixth member of the elite squad, such an unknown character, was even more powerful and glorious than the five, suppressing the five more and more and forgetting their former identities.

Masters sometimes need applause and praise, at least it can help build confidence.

"Okay, you guys have a good chat with these two elites, I'm leaving first." Gu Fei said.

"Go, go, practice hard and try to join our team." Yu Tian Shen Ming said.

Zhan Wushang nodded: "Level doesn't explain everything, especially in Parallel World, a game that is difficult to level up in. We can only rely on luck for equipment, as for skills, we have to work hard ourselves."

"That's right." the girls cheered.

"Two beasts." Gu Fei muttered to himself, left the private room, turned around and entered the next room, Han Jia Gongzi and You Ge were still there!

"How is it? How many beauties did you introduce to the two of them?" the two laughed.

"Four." Gu Fei said.

Han Jia Gongzi shook his head and sighed, "Our identities are about to be exposed."

"It's already been exposed." Gu Fei said.

"Your identity has been hidden, right?" Han Jia Gongzi said.

"How do you know?" Gu Fei was surprised.

Han Jia Gongzi smiled: "Those two guys went to pick up girls, how could they be willing to have their limelight stolen? If they say that you are also a member, then everyone will know that you are 27149. I said long ago that the only person those people are really interested in is you. So don't worry, those two guys would rather die than say anything about you, even if you rush over now and shout that you are 27149, they will find a way to make people not believe it."

"Damn!" Gu Fei was dumbfounded, hating that he didn't have such a wretched way of thinking, and didn't even think about Yu Tian Shen Ming's true intentions. He thought he was really trying his best to protect himself. It turned out that this was the reason.

"Haha, suppressing the people around you to increase your own value is a common method for picking up girls in online games. Now that you've left, those two guys are probably going to start ridiculing each other. Let's wait and see!" You Ge said.

Gu Fei marveled.

As You Ge had expected, from this day on, Yu Tian Shen Ming and Zhan Wushang began to argue and ridicule each other. The war spread from every meeting to the mercenary channel. As for the private chats between the two, there were probably countless more.

The others were tired of leveling up every day, so they pulled out the shielded mercenary channel to look at the chat logs of the two arguing, which had become a kind of entertainment mode. Gu Fei disdained this, but You Ge said to him very seriously: "You can't look at it that way. These two are both masters. Their bickering is not all just talk. Take yesterday's mutual contempt as an example. It can be said to be a paper simulation of a mage PK warrior, which contains a lot of mage and warrior skills. Especially Zhan Wushang's technique of using network latency to turn five slashes into six slashes, even I heard about it for the first time."

In addition, these two began to frequent the street where the Rebirth: Crystal Purple guild was located. This place was close to the Little Thunder Tavern. The other four, who set off after resting at the Little Thunder Tavern, saw the two wandering around on the street while arguing countless times. Only after asking did they know that the two were trying to create a chance encounter.

The two were unwilling to show weakness and spent a lot of time on these boring things every day, and their names were falling rapidly on the experience leaderboard. Zhan Wushang was no longer the number one on the warrior list, and Yu Tian Shen Ming was thrown out of the top twenty archers.

"A beauty brings disaster, a beauty brings disaster!" the other four sighed.

Gu Fei was also very bored these days. He had been hoping that someone would come to provoke him, but the days were so peaceful that it was infuriating.

He originally thought that the 12 PK points he had accumulated were good material, but no one came to him at all. Since the game has been in operation, players have a considerable understanding of the various task settings in it. The use of wanted tasks has basically been defined as washing away PK points. Earning money and leveling up through this task is the most cost-ineffective task in the eyes of normal people. The risk is high, and the reward is not much, so it is not worthwhile. As for washing away PK points, most people only have 1 or 2 points, so there is no need to look for Gu Fei with 12 points.

One point every 2 hours, the 12 PK points were washed away so hard. Gu Fei felt extremely regretful.

In addition, Can Meng Si and his gang had not come to him yet. Gu Fei remembered that those guys were clearly interested in the Dark Night Flowing Light Sword in his hand, but they had not taken action for a long time, which was really puzzling.

It was really unbearable for Gu Fei, who was addicted to PK, to spend his days so peacefully. He hoped that he would have a chance to see injustice and stand up for it every day he walked on the street. But the atmosphere in Cloud Piercer City was so harmonious that Gu Fei gradually had the idea of going to Moonlit Night City again.

At the same time, as You Ge said, the official operation of the game was about to begin with a bang.
