Hu Die Lan

Chapter 659 The Eve of the Finals

Chapter 1 The Beginning

Because of various reasons, when the big bosses of the major guilds were very conflicted about these two opponents, the battle for Luka Xiu, the King of the Sewers, a level 55 wild Boss, came to an end.

The outcome was without suspense. The Boss was ultimately snatched by Yi Zhan Tian Xia. For a level 55 Boss, these guild leaders wouldn't normally care too much. But at this moment, they all felt very angry, not because of the Boss, but because it was a very bad start.

On the Boss battle side, when Ye Xiu and the others rushed over, Zhan Lou Lan had already added them to the group. From the team channel, Ye Xiu and the others could clearly see what Zhan Lou Lan picked up in the end.

"Which ones do you want, God? Pick first!" Zhan Lou Lan listed the items again in a private message for Ye Xiu to see.

"Okay!" Ye Xiu didn't stand on ceremony. Among the dropped materials, he picked half, equal in value.

This was the tacit understanding between the two parties. Zhan Lou Lan was generous, and Ye Xiu was self-aware. To maintain a long-term cooperative relationship, subtle handling was always needed.

"Today went smoothly. I'll notify you immediately if there's news," Zhan Lou Lan said in high spirits.

"No problem. As long as I'm online," Ye Xiu replied.

This was another one of their helpless situations. Due to limited manpower, Ye Xiu and the others couldn't keep a 24-hour watch like the major guilds, paying attention until the Bosses were all cleared. Ye Xiu and the others only had a few people, doing everything themselves, and rest was necessary. Missing many Bosses because of this was unavoidable. That's why Ye Xiu hoped to kill the high-value Bosses as much as possible.

"There are quite a few Bosses this week, let's work hard!" Zhan Lou Lan said.

"Oh? How many more?" Ye Xiu and the others were relatively lacking in this regard. Although the killing of wild Bosses was announced by the system, it still required organization to remember, not to mention that they might not be present or paying attention when the announcement was made.

"I'll send you the chart." Zhan Lou Lan and the others were indeed actively dealing with these tasks, and actively organized the refreshing and killing of Bosses.

A statistical table was transmitted.

From level 55 to level 70 in the Heavenly Domain, constantly updating and accumulating, the current map can be divided into 69 large areas. In addition to one wild Boss in each large area, there are also some special settings, for a total of 74 wild Bosses in the Heavenly Domain. Among these, the top 20 level 70 wild Bosses are undoubtedly the top priority for major guilds to compete for. When encountering Bosses at the same time and manpower is limited, priority will definitely be given to these 20.

And these 20 Bosses are the pinnacle of Glory's pve difficulty. Even without external interference, no club guild would dare say they were 100% sure of killing them. It wasn't uncommon for everyone to fight over them without anyone getting them, and for the Boss to kill them until the river ran red with blood.

Ye Xiu looked through Zhan Lou Lan's statistics for this week, focusing on these 20 first. Seven had already been refreshed and killed this week, leaving 13. Adding up the remaining other wild Bosses, there were a total of 43, more than half.

"We're going to be busy," Wei Chen said after taking a look.

"Hope we encounter more," Ye Xiu said.

"Every opportunity must not be missed!" Wei Chen said.

Then, while continuing to level up, they waited for big news from Zhan Lou Lan, but after that, everything remained silent. Ye Xiu paid attention to the refreshing of system messages in the world, and didn't see any announcements of wild Bosses being killed, so it was clear that Yi Zhan Tian Xia's intelligence work wasn't inadequate.

In the blink of an eye, it was evening, and not a single Boss appeared. Lord Grim completed the feat of leveling up to level 70 on this day, completely stepping out of the level suppression he had been facing.

"Depressed, not a single Boss spawned!" Zhan Lou Lan complained in a message.

"No choice," Ye Xiu said helplessly. This was random. Just when you thought there were so many Bosses and one should have spawned, it just didn't, and no one could do anything about it.

"Going to watch the game first," Zhan Lou Lan said. The first match of the finals was about to begin.

"Keep an eye on the Boss too!" Ye Xiu said quickly.

"The finals!!" Zhan Lou Lan emphasized, as if Ye Xiu didn't know the date.

"Watch while playing the game!" Ye Xiu said.

"The problem isn't just with me, at this time, the people below watching the map aren't all here..." Zhan Lou Lan said.

Ye Xiu thought about it, and it was true. It was almost 8 o'clock now, which was normally the peak online time in the game, but the Heavenly Domain was as deserted as midnight. The annual finals, if you said you weren't paying attention, you would definitely be despised: What kind of Glory fan are you?

Not only did you have to pay attention, but you had to put down everything you were doing to pay attention. Looking at Wei Chen next to him, he couldn't even lead a team tonight. Team Samsara was playing in the finals tonight! As a guild member, if you didn't watch the game at this time, you would be suspected of being a fake Samsara fan mixed into the guild to take advantage.

However, club guilds were club guilds after all. The core elites were all professional or semi-professional. Staring at wild Bosses online every day was an important job. The finals could give most people a break, but there had to be staff on duty, right? So these big guilds still had people wandering around.

Zhan Lou Lan's side couldn't do this. Although his team was officially established and would join the next season, the guild in the game was still player-based, so he couldn't order anyone around at this time. In the end, no one paid attention to whether anything was refreshing.

"It's precisely at times like these that we might have more opportunities! Everyone is busy watching the finals, we focus on finding Bosses, maybe we'll have great gains. Don't forget that so many Bosses haven't refreshed for a long time, what if a few appear concentrated during this time? You're going to be a professional player, why are you still chasing this live feeling? If you want to study the match, you can watch the replay over and over again until you're sick of it, it's not like you'll miss this one," Ye Xiu persuaded Zhan Lou Lan.

"The content of the match is secondary, the key is knowing who the champion is, that feeling!" Zhan Lou Lan said.

"Samsara," Ye Xiu said.

"Huh?" Zhan Lou Lan immediately noticed something: "Did you sell your stuff to Samsara?"

"It's obvious, haven't you noticed that Samsara's characters' skill points have clearly increased?" Ye Xiu said.

"I've heard something recently..." Zhan Lou Lan said.

"So..."

"Just based on this, it's not enough to be so sure that they'll win the championship, right?" Zhan Lou Lan said.

"If they insist on screwing themselves over, then there's nothing anyone can do," Ye Xiu said.

"You mean, if they perform normally, Samsara will definitely win?" Zhan Lou Lan said.

"I wouldn't say definitely, but I'm optimistic about Samsara," Ye Xiu said.

"The way you say it, I want to watch the game even more..." Zhan Lou Lan said.

"Just leave the game running on the side while you watch, and take action if there's any news in the game. I don't think everyone in your guild will be gone, right? Have some people keep an eye out," Ye Xiu said.

"Okay, okay!" Zhan Lou Lan said helplessly.

"Hope there's good news," Ye Xiu said.

"Hope no Bosses spawn..." Zhan Lou Lan was focused on watching the game.

Having finally persuaded Zhan Lou Lan not to miss a good opportunity, Ye Xiu himself had to keep an eye on the game, of course. They at Team Happy usually didn't go downstairs to watch the game, but used their own projection in the training room. It was already set up, but Chen Guo wasn't there.

The finals broadcast in the internet cafe was naturally more crowded, and Chen Guo, as the boss, went down to personally oversee things, in case there were any unexpected situations that needed to be dealt with.

"You're not watching the game?" Wei Chen asked, seeing Ye Xiu still messing with the game. The match was starting in a few minutes, and the players from both sides were already sitting at their stations on the stage.

Ye Xiu then explained the reason why tonight might be a great opportunity to Wei Chen. Wei Chen was also moved by what he heard, but said with great difficulty, "After all, I'm the former captain of Blue Rain, and at this time, I feel it's necessary to seriously support my former team."

"The biggest advantage your former team's competitor has is what you sold to them," Ye Xiu reminded him.

"Oh!" Wei Chen slapped his thigh, as if he had just realized it.

"So, let's run a dungeon," Ye Xiu said, and Lord Grim was heading towards a level 70 small dungeon. Now that he was level 70, it was time to seriously put together some equipment. Self-made equipment was the ultimate goal, but before that, he could only rely on the game. Ye Xiu had a plan in mind for how to match the various orange, purple, and blue equipment at level 70.

"What dungeon are we running?" Wei Chen asked, then glanced at Ye Xiu and immediately cursed, "Damn, how can we watch while we're playing?"

Ye Xiu had already stood at the entrance of a level 70 5-player dungeon. Wei Chen obviously knew that with their skill level, even two people could handle it more than easily. But they weren't steamrolling, they still had to keep an eye on the game and control their characters, so how could they have the energy to watch the match? It would be more appropriate to say "watch while playing" when running a low-level dungeon that could be steamrolled with your eyes closed.

"More people, it's easier to handle," Ye Xiu said, and called Tang Rou and Baozi over again.

Tang Rou wasn't too hung up on the issue of watching the live game, and neither was Baozi. Hearing the call, he rushed over without hesitation. Tang Rou's Soft Mist and Baozi Invasion had been at level 70 for a while, but their equipment wasn't very good. They were all equipment from 5-player dungeons, which was obviously far from the equipment dropped in 100-player raids.

The three of them entered the dungeon, the clock jumped to eight o'clock, the finals began on the projection screen, and Ye Xiu activated the first wave of monsters in the dungeon.

"A team without a healer... no matter how many people there are, we won't be able to spare time to watch the game!" Wei Chen muttered, feeling like he had been tricked by Ye Xiu. Without a healer, they would naturally need to carefully dodge damage, and in that case, watching the game would definitely be fragmented.
