Hu Die Lan
Chapter 898 Strategy Guide
The strategy Ye Xiu made this time was quite different from the one he made in the tenth server. Back then, the strategy was for breaking dungeon records, emphasizing high precision and expertise. Even if the strategy was written clearly, not everyone could accomplish it.
But what about this time? The main purpose of the strategy was to teach players how to face the new level 75 dungeons when they were overleveled. Although there were some requirements in the strategy, Ye Xiu tried to simplify the requirements as much as possible without considering efficiency, so that as many players as possible could use the strategy.
Such a strategy also meant that it wouldn't just be for the guild's elite team, but for the general public. In this way, it would be impossible to become the unique weapon of one's own guild.
Although the Excellent Era guild was still very weak, given Ye Xiu's constant troublemaking in the Heavenly Domain, it was definitely regarded as a thorn in the side by the major club guilds. It was impossible for there not to be spies from the other side in the guild. This kind of dungeon strategy didn't require obtaining any written material. After following the team a few times, experienced players could retell it with eighty or ninety percent accuracy.
Instead of waiting for these spies to dig it out and share it, it would be better to take the initiative to go to them.
So, after the first strategy was released, Ye Xiu decisively sent a group message to the presidents of the major guilds: "Strategy, strategy, anyone want a strategy?"
"Huh? What strategy?"
The fastest to reply was Jiang You of Tyrannical Ambition. This guild president had personally experienced the strategy trade in the tenth server, so he was particularly sensitive and reacted quickly. After him, the presidents of the other guilds also sent messages one after another, and none of them took it lightly.
"Level 75 dungeon strategy, teaching you how to challenge at a higher level and snatch various records," Ye Xiu sent again, describing his strategy as particularly enticing.
Excellent Era guild's first kill record was already all over the place, coupled with Ye Xiu's own god-level strength, the guild presidents didn't doubt this strategy. But they also knew that Ye Xiu certainly wasn't here for academic exchange, so they all asked with great awareness, "What's the price?"
"Not expensive, just give me a level 75 orange equipment piece," Ye Xiu said.
The drop rate of orange equipment wasn't high unless it was a record reward. But the major club guilds had a large player base and considerable strength. With this strategy, tens of thousands of players could immediately start farming dungeons. If so many players and teams were considered as a whole, then the output of orange equipment would be very guaranteed.
One orange equipment piece, although it was a level 75 orange equipment piece that hadn't yet appeared on the market, couldn't be considered much. Ye Xiu's asking price this time was quite conservative. He was also worried that asking for too much would trigger the guild presidents to think. Once they started thinking, they would easily realize that this strategy wasn't just available through this one channel. So, he simply offered a price that was nothing to these large club guilds. In this way, these giants would probably be too lazy to bargain or think too much and would directly agree.
"Okay." Sure enough, many guild presidents nodded on the spot, but they all didn't forget to add, "But we don't have it yet! We'll give it to you later."
"Understood," Ye Xiu replied. Apart from the guilds with record rewards, none of them would have level 75 orange equipment. So, this was true. Besides, these bosses really didn't need to be petty about such a small account. Even if the two sides were competitors, it would be too low-level and unstylish to disgust opponents in this way.
Then he asked for the email addresses of the various guilds, and Ye Xiu began to send out the strategies. At this time, he received a message from Zhan Lou Lan in the game, looking rather depressed: "God, do we still need this? One orange equipment piece is nothing. You even made a strategy to exchange for it. That's a bit meaningless!"
See! In the eyes of a big tycoon, one orange equipment piece was nothing at all. Zhan Lou Lan's thinking was always very clear. No matter how good the relationship, he never hesitated to settle accounts clearly when necessary. But this matter made him feel depressed. Obviously, he felt that one orange equipment piece wasn't qualified to rise to the level of "close brothers settle accounts clearly." If Ye Xiu also did this, it would make him feel a little uncomfortable.
"Oh, don't mind, I sent it in a group to my guild president friends," Ye Xiu said, quickly explaining.
"So that's how it is!" Zhan Lou Lan was instantly relieved.
"I'll send you a copy of the strategy later. With our relationship, orange equipment is naturally something we can exchange," Ye Xiu said.
"That's a must," Zhan Lou Lan said happily.
The strategies were quickly sent out. Not long after, the various guild presidents messaged again, "Huh? Just this one?" What Ye Xiu sent was just a strategy for a 5-player dungeon.
"Did you think one orange equipment piece could exchange for all the dungeons?" Ye Xiu asked, righteously.
"So, it's one orange equipment piece for one dungeon?" the guild presidents asked.
"Yes."
"Will there be other dungeon strategies?" everyone asked.
"Do you need them?"
"Of course!"
"Then there will be!"
"Send them quickly."
"Wait! Haven't written them yet," Ye Xiu replied. In fact, he hadn't just not written them yet, he hadn't even researched them yet.
The first strategy was handed over just like that. Only then was it his own guild's turn to arrange things. After Ye Xiu gave the strategy to Chen Guo and Wu Chen, he continued to be busy.
Second copy, third copy…
Ye Xiu directly sent the completed strategy to these guilds, without saying much more. It wasn't like it was some 20 million deal.
Every day at midnight, when all the dungeon cooldowns reset, Ye Xiu would also join everyone in clearing the ten-player team dungeons, paying attention to whether or not he could create a strategy for the ten-player team dungeons. But after looking at it, he finally gave up. The difficulty of the team dungeons was quite a bit higher than the five-player dungeons.
Ye Xiu joined the team, and naturally he was the one to command again. Mo Fan also rarely got a quiet environment. But Wei Chen was already used to scolding him. Although he wasn't commanding, as soon as he saw something wrong with Mo Fan, he would spray him with insults like idiot, moron, retard, and dumbass. Mo Fan gritted his teeth but silently endured. His output stats were constantly rising, and he was constantly improving. He was very clear about this in his heart.
Excellent Era Club.
After a conversation with Xiao Shiqin, manager Cui Li really went to communicate with Chen Yehui again, asking him not to always focus his attention on Ye Qiu in the future, and to still aim at the long-term development goals of the guild.
Chen Yehui didn't attend the meeting between Cui Li and the team, so naturally he didn't know why Cui Li suddenly said such a thing to him. After thinking left and right, he hadn't had any interaction with Ye Qiu recently, and he hadn't caused any losses to the club because of his fight with Ye Qiu!
Objectively speaking, Chen Yehui strongly disagreed with Cui Li's statement.
"Don't pay attention to Ye Qiu? This season, isn't our biggest competitor Ye Qiu?" Chen Yehui said.
"It's Ye Qiu, but we can't let our mentality lose its balance because of this. Don't you think we're putting too much pressure on ourselves because of Ye Qiu? Tactically, we will never ignore him. No one knows better than us how terrifying Ye Qiu is. But strategically, we must despise him, and we must keep the team in a normal state of mind."
Chen Yehui roughly understood what Cui Li meant. But what he didn't understand was that Cui Li seemed to be talking about things at the team level, so what did this have to do with his guild department?
"With the new update, what are Ye Qiu's movements?" Chen Yehui hadn't finished thinking when Cui Li suddenly asked.
At the mention of this, Chen Yehui forgot about the strategic contempt he had just mentioned, and his mood was very anxious: "Have you not been on the game? Look."
Chen Yehui turned the monitor showing his game interface to Cui Li, and then clicked on the various level 75 record rankings.
On the first kill list, the four Excellent Era guild names were so eye-catching. In addition, there was another list with a bunch of names, but Cui Li still saw Jun Mo Xiao at a glance. But then when he saw the other names, he was also confused: "This is… with people from Tiny Herb?"
"Yes, on the day of the update, because the professional players were resting, Ye Qiu led his Excellent Era people to make a big splash in the first kill. Until the morning, the professional players came to experience the game one after another, and then divided the remaining records. But at this time, Ye Qiu found Tiny Herb team to cooperate and took another first kill in a 20-player team dungeon together," Chen Yehui introduced.
"Oh," Cui Li responded.
"I think the energy of our team's players is still very abundant. At this time, why don't we let them grab some first kills?" Chen Yehui was extremely depressed. He had talked to Cui Li about the fact that the Excellent Era's professional players had plenty of energy during the Challenger League last time. So this time, when the new version was updated, he felt it was a good opportunity to perform. Who would have thought that the club would still be slow to react, allowing Ye Qiu to take the lead? If the Excellent Era's players could have stayed up all night tonight, wouldn't half of the dungeon records be Excellent Dynasty's?
"Look, look, I just told you to pay attention to maintaining a balanced mindset, and you've already gone overboard again. I've decided to reconsider the matter of professional players going to the online game specifically to打击 (dǎjī - crack down on) Excellent Era. Your current focus should also be on studying the new update content, especially paying attention to cooperation with the technology department, and trying your best to meet their needs. The professional players also need to make new adjustments to adapt to the updated content. They're not as free as you think," Cui Li said.
Chen Yehui was completely stunned this time. What exactly was going on? Suddenly, manager Cui, who was in the same trench as him, seemed to have jumped out of the trench.
Ye Qiu, are we just going to sit back and watch him get bigger?
As a result, Cui Li continued to instruct: "As for Excellent Era, just treat it like competing with other club guilds in the past. Just do what you need to do."
These words almost made Chen Yehui cry. He couldn't help but retort, "Like in the past? In the past, which guild had a god like Ye Qiu sitting in it?"
