Chapter 72

At this time, the various guilds really weren't that interested in dungeon records. Seeing that it was impossible to stop Lord Grim from forming a dungeon team, everyone felt that even if they competed, they'd only be fighting for second place, which was really boring. So some of them weren't forcing themselves to form a five-person team to run dungeons. Those with eight people could handle it by splitting into two four-person teams.

But for Blue Brook Guild, they were short one person due to Thousand Autumn Leaves' departure. Seven people divided into two teams meant one team of three and one team of four. The four-person team was easy to handle, but the three-person team required caution even for experienced players. They weren't willing to force a three-person run unless absolutely necessary.

"You guys form a team first, I'll go find other guilds to team up with," Blue River said, being a good guild leader and prioritizing his subordinates before himself.

"I'm saying, there aren't any other guilds right now," Threadbare said.

Blue River was taken aback, then realized. Currently, in Thousand Wave Lake, the only ones who hadn't finished three dungeon runs were Lord Grim's group and Blue Brook Guild and Tyrannical Ambition.

"Aren't there still people from Tyrannical Ambition? They have exactly three extra, they can team up with us," Blue River said, sending a message to Cold Night, but learned that they had split their eight people into two teams of four, both already in the dungeon.

"Looks like we can only barely manage with a three-person team," Threadbare said helplessly after learning this. Blue River sighed, and the seven could only pitifully split into a team of four and a team of three, entering the dungeon one after another. He ultimately ignored Lord Grim's invitation.

Chen Guo had also witnessed Lord Grim being rejected. And why was Lord Grim inviting people? Of course, it was because their team had Su Mucheng, whose time wasn't very flexible. Su Mucheng could keep up with the front-line levels because Lord Grim spent time leveling her up at the beginning of the game, and because her own strength was high, her leveling efficiency was higher than the average player's. And of course, she participated in the Christmas event. However, considering that Lord Grim, Su Mucheng, and Tang Rou took the lion's share of the Christmas event rewards but were still at the bottom of the level rankings, one could see that even with great strength, they couldn't compare to the 24/7 leveling methods of the big guilds.

Seeing that Lord Grim and the others ultimately entered the dungeon with four people, and Su Mucheng's character missed a run, her experience would definitely fall behind. If this happened frequently, she would fall further and further behind. Chen Guo couldn't help but worry, "You're going to the dungeon now, what about Su Mucheng? If she comes tomorrow, she won't have anyone to run with."

"There's no way, we can't wait for her, she doesn't have time tomorrow either, she has to play in a match," Ye Xiu said.

"She's so busy, it's too hard on her," Chen Guo felt sorry for her idol.

"It's okay, she doesn't spend too much time in the game, her technique makes up for it," Ye Xiu said.

"Even if technique makes up for it, it can't compare to people from the big guilds who are online 24 hours a day, right?" Chen Guo came from a big guild, so she knew the situation.

"That's true," Ye Xiu admitted.

"Actually, my Chasing Haze is already max level, and I just left the guild, and I don't have a fixed team to run dungeons with, so I can put it aside for now," Chen Guo said vaguely, not at all like the usually unrestrained boss lady.

"Hm? You mean, you can help me level up?" Even though she was speaking vaguely, Ye Xiu still understood.

"Mmm, mmm, mmm," Chen Guo nodded vigorously, a little excited. How happy would it be to practice with her idol?

"Isn't it annoying to have to keep taking the card back and forth every day?" Ye Xiu said.

"Not annoying, not annoying," Chen Guo shook her head vigorously, even more excited. This was another happy thing about practicing together! Glory was one card, one account. Practicing together meant handing over the account card every day, so wouldn't she be able to see her idol every day? Chen Guo thought, her mouth almost unable to close.

"Boss lady, how old are you?" Ye Xiu suddenly asked.

"What?" Chen Guo didn't understand why he suddenly asked that question. Her age? It seemed like Ye Xiu already knew it, right?

"Boss lady, you're so old, is it appropriate for you to still be chasing stars like a young girl?" Ye Xiu said.

"You're asking for it!!" Chen Guo, who hadn't exploded in a long time, immediately jumped up, but after looking around, she couldn't find anything suitable to hit him with. The mouse and keyboard in her hands were newly bought and specially used, and she liked them very much. The monitor was too expensive; the chair was too big, and the movement would be too loud and have a bad influence.

"Ahem, what you said is indeed reasonable, helping to level up like this can reduce a lot of our burden. It's a crucial and important part of the guild's construction and development, the boss's decision is brilliant," Ye Xiu quickly said solemnly.

Tang Rou, on the side, calmly turned her gaze away to suppress her laughter. Chen Guo's anger was half-dissipated by Ye Xiu's nonsensical words. Half-laughing and half-crying, she sat down and asked, "Then tell me, how are we going to do it?"

"To increase levels, my character is the key! Boss, if you're really willing, help me power-level!" Ye Xiu said.

"Help you..." Chen Guo's interest clearly decreased a lot. If it were before, helping Ye Qiu power-level would definitely be enough to drive her crazy with excitement. But now, facing the real Ye Qiu, and after having a transitional character like Ye Xiu, Chen Guo's worship of this god had slowly faded.

"Okay..." But in the end, she agreed.

"Don't be so reluctant, my account is very fun! Look..." Ye Xiu swished and swished, quickly changing the form of the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, showing Lord Grim's "fun" aspects.

"Got it," Chen Guo nodded. The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella was indeed a very strange and fun thing. It's just that Chen Guo wasn't very good at playing other classes. She had used Lord Grim a few times, always playing as a gunner. Now that she was really going to specialize in power-leveling, she could try it in more ways.

"I'll say this first! I don't play as crazy as you guys. When you're not practicing, if I'm tired from practicing, I won't practice either," Chen Guo negotiated.

"What about Su Mucheng's account?" Ye Xiu inquired.

Chen Guo glanced sideways, her meaning clearly saying, "How dare you compare yourself to her?" Ye Xiu was very helpless, he was clearly even more of a god than Su Mucheng, okay?

While Ye Xiu was chatting with Chen Guo about these things, they were still running the Thousand Wave Lake dungeon. Thousand Creations and Starlight Artery were veterans, and didn't need Ye Xiu to give them much direction at all. And while he was chatting with Chen Guo, he was still handling everything with ease. The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella switched skillfully, and various class small skills were constantly used, definitely the core of the team.

With a god like him sitting in town, and without any newbie white noobs causing trouble, it was difficult for their team to even wipe.

At this time, Blue River was depressed. The good guild leader who first thought of his subordinates, of course, left the opportunity for the four-person team to others, and he himself mixed in with the three-person team. This road was indeed fraught with danger. The three people stumbled all the way, and finally, at the second boss, they couldn't resist. After making a mistake, the boss killed the three of them.

The dungeon difficulty was originally much greater than leveling in the wild, and death was a very frequent thing. However, dungeon deaths didn't have any discounts, with the same punishment measures. This setting was initially criticized a lot by players, but now Glory had been around for ten years, and the veterans had long been completely accustomed to this setting, and were too lazy to complain about the game settings.

The only convenience of dying in a dungeon was that after the player resurrected, they would be teleported to the dungeon entrance, instead of being sent back to the main city resurrection point to run all the way back. At this time, the three gathered outside the dungeon, pitifully comforting each other while waiting for their near-death state to be lifted. Then Blue River received a message from Ye Xiu: "You guys wiped?"

Blue River was stunned at that time. Once they wiped, the other side would know. Could it be that these two brothers in front of him were also from the other side?

"How do you know?"

"The level rankings..."

Blue River was once again stunned, and quickly flipped through the level rankings again. It turned out that he hadn't leveled much in the past five days, and this wipe caused his experience to drop again, resulting in his ranking being surpassed by Lord Grim and Tang Rou's characters.

"Oh..." After reading the level rankings, Blue River responded.

"We're missing someone..." Ye Xiu brought up the old topic again.

Blue River was stunned again, then suddenly said to one of the two, "You, go follow Lord Grim's team later, they have a spot over there."

"Ah?" That person was stunned.

"Threadbare, you follow Flower Lantern Night's team, it seems like they're having a hard time without a priest," Blue River said to Threadbare at the end. Their three-person team had brought a priest to provide security, but this naturally made their output even worse. But without a priest, relying only on skill to run the dungeon, they weren't Ye Xiu and Tang Rou, and they weren't very confident. So the three of them were indeed a rather awkward and difficult combination.

"What about you?" The two asked in unison.

"I haven't practiced for five days, missing today isn't a big deal, I'm going to brush dungeons in the City of Sin," Blue River said to the two, and at the end contacted Ye Xiu and introduced the one from their guild over.

"Oh, what about you?" Ye Xiu asked.

"I'll go wander around elsewhere," Blue River said casually.

"You're just without a team? Then you're free, go use Gorgeous and bring people along!" Ye Xiu offered another idea.

"Screw off! I'm busy!" Blue River exploded.

"..." Punctuation Law was used by Ye Xiu.

There were no more words overnight. After the dungeons were all finished, everyone was leveling in Thousand Wave Lake, and finally peace was restored. Occasionally encountering each other, the people from the major guilds were still a little nervous, but seeing that Lord Grim had indeed collected the materials and had no intention of attacking them, and sometimes even greeted them when they were close, they gradually relaxed.

It was just that this guy's greetings were really annoying, not calling them by name, always shouting things like "died twice," "died three times," "died four times," and so on. He was a dignified god! Counting how many times these small fries had died today was too unscrupulous! Everyone was constantly complaining in their hearts. (To be continued.
