Chapter 178 Video Recording

The video recording naturally captured the perspective of the character, automatically and continuously. During playback, the camera could zoom in and out, but there was no rotation. Qiao Yifan's recording started with his Grey Moon charging up, being blocked by Lord Grim, and then being besieged. This part was naturally chaotic, and apart from his own difficulties, nothing could be seen. Xiao Yun, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief, as his death from being juggled by the Shadow Steps wasn't recorded.

Who knew Wang Jiexi had sharp eyes and quick hands, constantly clicking the play and pause buttons to capture images of Grey Moon being besieged and the shots where the camera inadvertently turned to Lord Grim, showing Cloud Piercer being beaten into mid-air.

Once, twice, three times…

Full body, half body, one-third body…

Xiao Yun finally lowered his head in embarrassment. He wasn't in the recording, but he was serialized in comic strip form.

Wang Jiexi said nothing. The recording ended after Grey Moon ran away with Gao Yingjie's Fallen Leaves, Crows Cry. In the subsequent second recording, the beginning of the footage was somewhat intermittent. Clearly, Qiao Yifan was also hiding Grey Moon, only managing to sneak a shot every now and then. Then the fight started, and the forgotten Qiao Yifan was able to clearly capture the entire process from a bystander's perspective, until Zhou Yebai's White Night Black Day died and yelled at him, at which point Grey Moon stepped forward to help, and the camera became chaotic.

Several people stood nervously behind Wang Jiexi, watching the recording with him, and all lowered their heads, waiting to be reprimanded! But Wang Jiexi said nothing. After getting up, he patted Qiao Yifan and left.

Xiao Yun and the others were hesitant and uncertain, unsure of what to do. They could only return to their computers and continue training, and they spent the entire morning feeling restless.

That afternoon, Vice-Captain Deng Fusheng retrieved the account cards, mostly obtained from Herb Garden, corresponding to the main players' classes.

The Tiny Herb Club, including Captain Wang Jiexi, had a total of six main players and five substitutes, for a total of eleven. This 6+5 setup was the personnel arrangement commonly adopted by clubs in the alliance.

The time after dusk, except for match days, was usually free time, and there were quite a few diligent players who would practice on their own. However, since the captain had spoken, the Tiny Herb members naturally gathered in the training room. After receiving their account cards, they all entered Glory's tenth server. The expressions on everyone's faces were a bit strange. A large group entering the online game like this had happened in the Heavenly Domain, but it was the first time in the normal servers.

"The target is player Lord Grim. Everyone, don't be careless. There's a high probability that this person is the retired Ye Qiu," Wang Jiexi announced the purpose of this extra training.

Everyone perked up immediately and started discussing among themselves. Some had already entered the game and, after searching the ID, immediately reported to Wang Jiexi, "Captain, he's not online!"

"He'll come eventually. Everyone, familiarize yourselves with your characters first. These low-level characters below level 30, you're probably not used to them, right?" Wang Jiexi said.

Xiao Yun and the others blushed. Was the captain subtly mocking them? Was he? Wasn't he? You can't guess what Great God Jiexi is thinking. You just can't.

Around 8 p.m., Lord Grim was finally found to be online, and the team members immediately reported to Wang Jiexi, then inquired about Lord Grim's location from Herb Garden.

Club Manager Che Qianzi was also uncertain and suspicious. After yesterday, today even Tiny Herb's vice-captain personally came to retrieve a batch of account cards. Counting it all up, it was a complete Tiny Herb team. Was the Tiny Herb team collectively coming to the tenth server for a tourist trip? Che Qianzi felt suffocated in his heart, but he had nowhere to voice his concerns. These account cards were quite confidential due to their special purpose, and he really couldn't bring them up.

When he saw these characters logging in one by one in the evening, Che Qianzi didn't dare to say hello. He just wandered around, hoping to accidentally run into this Tiny Herb sightseeing group. Unfortunately, during that time, the Tiny Herb players were free to roam, and they didn't gather together at all.

It wasn't until after 8 p.m. that someone immediately asked about Lord Grim's whereabouts as soon as he logged in.

"Still Lord Grim?" Che Qianzi was startled. Just what kind of person was this Lord Grim? Was the entire Tiny Herb coming to see him? An alien? While Che Qianzi was thinking, he quickly instructed everyone in the guild to pay attention to Lord Grim.

After getting some information, he replied to the other side while heading to the place where Lord Grim was appearing.

Fraying Wilds, the Herb Garden players saw Lord Grim there.

If it was purely for leveling, Ye Xiu would definitely go to a higher-level area, but at this time, he still had some level 28 quests on him, all of which were to be completed in Fraying Wilds.

Quest storylines? Background stories? These were all old news from ten years ago. Not even Che Qianzi, let alone Ye Xiu, would bother to read them. Veteran players only cared about the rewards from quests, but some quests were long and tedious, and the final reward was often attribute points or skill books, which were essential items, so players had to patiently do the prerequisites one by one. Ye Xiu was in Fraying Wilds now for the prerequisites of these damn quests.

Ye Xiu followed the simplest routes from online guides, took several quests together, hunted monsters, found people, delivered items, found items, and after a round trip, submitted them all at once, then continued to the next round, doing them briskly.

"Lord Grim is in Fraying Wilds, alone." The Tiny Herb member who asked for information reported to Captain Wang Jiexi.

"Go to Fraying Wilds," Wang Jiexi said.

The entire team of eleven people headed towards Fraying Wilds from all directions. Deng Fusheng, the vice-captain sitting next to Wang Jiexi, leaned over and said as he traveled, "Even if it's really Ye Qiu, isn't it a bit of an exaggeration for so many of us to go together?"

Wang Jiexi turned his head and glanced at him, calmly saying, "Let the main force go one-on-one first."

"A gauntlet?" Deng Fusheng said.

"It's a team exhibition match, eleven of us, one of him," Wang Jiexi said.

Deng Fusheng broke out in a sweat. Was there a difference?

Fraying Wilds was soon reached. Lord Grim was doing quests, so he wasn't hiding, making him easy to find. Che Qianzi's people had also sneaked over, but they didn't dare to greet him. They secretly found an inconspicuous place to hide. Watching these eleven characters arrive, knowing that this was the real Tiny Herb team, his heart was surging, and he was debating whether to record it.

"The main force, who wants to go one-on-one first?" Wang Jiexi asked in the training room.

After a slight silence, someone volunteered, "I'll go!"

"Okay," Wang Jiexi responded.

The person who volunteered was Liang Fang, a Berserker by profession, with simple and brutal techniques, a wild player. He was currently using the level 27 Berserker Bloodfrenzy, with a level 25 purple weapon, Broken Water Heavy Sword, with 310 physical attack, 210 magic attack, +10 Strength, and +1 to the Cleave skill. In addition, he had some ordinary blue and green equipment, a mix of quest and dungeon gear. Che Qianzi had done his best to equip each of these accounts with a purple weapon, but he couldn't take care of the rest of the equipment.

Liang Fang's Bloodfrenzy walked up with his sword, and the other ten people scattered around in a circle. Ye Xiu was still killing monsters, ignoring them. Xiao Yun and the others felt very lonely. There had been such a big commotion. There was no way the other side hadn't seen them. They had met and fought yesterday. Now, they couldn't even elicit the slightest bit of vigilance from the other side. This could only mean that the other side didn't care about them at all.

"Hey!" Bloodfrenzy shouted as Liang Fang walked forward with his sword.

Lord Grim ignored him and continued to kill monsters.

Everyone felt indignant. Liang Fang had shouted so loudly that everyone heard him. How could Lord Grim, who was closer, not hear him? He was clearly ignoring them.

"Hey!!" Liang Fang shouted again. He wanted to fight fairly and didn't want to attack someone while they were fighting monsters.

Still no response.

Liang Fang's Bloodfrenzy went to the front of Lord Grim so that he could see him. "I'll wait for you to finish fighting the monsters," Liang Fang said and waited quietly.

Lord Grim meticulously killed the gathered small monsters. Liang Fang thought that he was finally done and was about to start fighting, but then he saw... Lord Grim stopped moving.

That's right, he stopped moving completely, and the scene was peaceful.

"Captain?" Liang Fang asked for instructions, somewhat depressed.

"Hit him to see what happens," Wang Jiexi said.

"Yes!" Liang Fang responded and jumped up, slashing down with his sword. Lord Grim still didn't move, until Liang Fang suddenly heard what sounded like a woman's scream, which made Liang Fang a little dazed. Finally, Lord Grim moved.

Just as the sword was about to hit him, Lord Grim suddenly lowered his body, increasing the distance between the sword and his head. At the same time, he rolled on the spot, barely dodging the sword.

"What's going on? Who is this person?" Chen Guo said in surprise at Happy Internet Cafe.

Ye Xiu didn't react to the approach of the eleven people because he really didn't notice. He didn't respond when Liang Fang said "Hey" because he didn't hear him at all. He wasn't even wearing headphones. How could he hear anything? He was just casually dealing with the monsters, mainly talking to Chen Guo on the side. After cleaning up a few small monsters, he stopped and talked to Boss Chen Guo. The boss was explaining the affairs of the internet cafe, serious matters.

Then, Chen Guo watched his screen and saw Liang Fang suddenly slash over with a sword, and she screamed in surprise. Ye Xiu turned his head and saw it, quickly turned around to operate, and managed to dodge the sword even in the nick of time.

"I don't know..." Ye Xiu said, looking around and seeing Cloud Piercer and a series of other IDs, and then said, "Oh."

"Who?" Chen Guo asked.

Ye Xiu shook his head. He wasn't sure. But after looking around and seeing the class composition of the eleven people, he suddenly paused.

The Tiny Herb team?!

Although Ye Xiu wasn't a Tiny Herb fan like Che Qianzi, he was an old opponent of Tiny Herb. He was more familiar with the class composition of the Tiny Herb team than Che Qianzi. He made the judgment in an instant, which surprised Ye Xiu.

Ye Xiu had noticed that the attack of the group of people yesterday was extraordinary. They were professional-level, but he didn't think of Tiny Herb. He suspected Liu Hao, thinking that he had failed to compete for the dungeon record and had come to fight head-on. But now, these eleven people clearly had the class composition of the Tiny Herb team.

Ye Xiu immediately thought of Che Qianzi, who had come to provoke him aggressively that afternoon. It seemed that Wang Jiexi was the one who manipulated everything behind the scenes that day?

Ye Xiu thought, looking at the other magic scholar among the eleven characters besides Fallen Leaves, Crows Cry: Raging Flames.

Behind Raging Flames, Wang Jiexi said calmly, "Liang Fang, go!"
