Hu Die Lan

Chapter 964 Knowing When to Quit

Chapter 1280 Shadow

If Wang Jiexi was simply charging around recklessly, no one would bother him. But the problem was that he was carrying the Boss's aggro. From the perspective of academic Boss-stealing, Wang Jiexi was a core issue that everyone had to face. Before resolving him, the others couldn't easily harass the Boss, as that would be adding fuel to the fire for Zhongcaotang to kill the Boss.

Ordinary players shouldn't even think about dealing with Wang Jiexi. Even professional players, like the Yan Yu sisters, who were at the initial stages, would only embarrass themselves. But apart from those two, the players who arrived today were all big names and fully qualified to create some trouble for Wang Jiexi. However, the problem was that before these players could create trouble for Wang Jiexi, they themselves were troubled.

Team Happy!

Ye Xiu and his team's goal was simple and pure. They had no desire for the wild Bosses, so they didn't waste too much energy on the wandering Wang Jiexi. But other professional players were their hunting targets. While fiercely battling the players they had already entangled, they also provoked and harassed new targets everywhere.

The professional players were annoyed but didn't want to waste time on Happy, so most of them adopted an attitude of "if I can't afford to offend you, I'll avoid you." And what about Ye Xiu and his team? They were particularly dissatisfied with the professional players' evasive attitude. They were here to accumulate experience through invitations to battle. This dodging back and forth wasn't conducive to their growth!

They couldn't provoke many professional players, and they couldn't clean up the few who were currently in the middle of a battle. Professional players didn't fight alone. Whether it was Yu Feng, Huang Shaotian, Zhang Jiale, or Lin Jingyan, they were all followed by their guilds and wouldn't watch their own gods being led by the nose. A few people coming over to provide some fire support or casting a few healing spells was also a great help.

However, Ye Xiu wasn't anxious about this. Because their purpose was too pure, winning or losing wasn't important. If these professional players couldn't be killed and they could fight him for three days and three nights, that would be a bonus!

The scene was chaotic, but it somehow balanced out in this chaos.

Team Happy couldn't be distinguished from the professional players they were entangled with. On the Boss-stealing side, everyone couldn't do anything about Wang Jiexi. So the guilds began to attack the ordinary players of Zhongcaotang, and Wang Jiexi began to lead the Boss to charge around in the lineups of the major guilds, disrupting their attack deployments.

Did Shadow Army Advisor Shahan look like a Boss at this time?

Everyone who looked at him felt that he didn't. This guy now clearly looked like Wang Jiexi's summoned beast. Following behind Wang Jiexi's Magician, he killed wherever he went, creating chaos for the players of the major guilds.

It turned out that the Magician was so sharp when stealing Bosses. The players had opened their eyes today. Seeing that their own professional players didn't seem to have many solutions, they gradually lost confidence.

Shadow Army Advisor Shahan's health was constantly decreasing. Charging around in such a crowd, not to mention the attacks from Zhongcaotang, which had been chasing after him, the accidental damage alone must have dropped more than 10% of his health.

Until Shahan's health dropped to 10% and he entered a berserk state, the scene became even more unmanageable. Shahan's berserk state was to summon a shadow army. Several black-clad masked assassins appeared and killed anyone they met.

Ordinary players definitely couldn't beat these assassins in a one-on-one fight. Professional players had the ability, but they were conflicted! What could they get by killing these shadow assassins? Nothing, they were just helping Zhongcaotang for free!

With the situation developing to this point and no way to deal with Wang Jiexi, the guilds finally decided to give up. After each family gave the order, Samsara, Misty Rain, Excellent Dynasty, and other guilds all sounded the retreat. However, many people saw that Happy and several gods were still entangled in the excitement and were very interested in coming over to watch.

Zhang Jiale and the others, seeing that the other side had dispersed, immediately knew that the overall situation must be set. They hated Ye Xiu in their hearts! If it wasn't for Ye Xiu's insistence on adding trouble to them here, with the combat power of their several gods, Wang Jiexi definitely wouldn't have been so relaxed.

"Look at you, what trouble are you adding? Have you guys snatched the Boss now?" Zhang Jiale despised Ye Xiu, thinking that Ye Xiu had also greatly miscalculated.

"Hehe," Ye Xiu smiled.

"What are you 'hehe-ing'!" Zhang Jiale was annoyed, and Shallow Flower's Dazzle fired a barrage of artillery at Lord Grim.

Lord Grim hurriedly dodged. Speaking of which, this also made Ye Xiu a little depressed. He hoped that Tang Rou, Baozi, and others would have more opportunities to fight these professional players to increase their experience, but these professional players preferred to find trouble with his Lord Grim. To be honest, Ye Xiu's Lord Grim was quite a spectator in this melee. He did more commanding and only acted as the main combat force when he was forced to.

"Kill this guy together!!!" Huang Shaotian's Swordsman's text bubble could be seen from several coordinate areas away. Sun Xiang, who was preparing to leave with the guild, immediately became eager to try when he saw this and wanted to come over with his battle lance.

"Isn't it a waste of time to stay here?" Xiao Shiqin's Mechanic quickly came over to dissuade him.

At this time, Ye Xiu saw that the Boss fight was over, and the people from the various guilds were gathering here. If they continued to fight, the players from Blue Brook Guild, Tyrannical Ambition, and Hundred Blossoms Valley could fully participate. In this way, if Ye Xiu and his team didn't have the help of the guild members, they would be outnumbered and wouldn't be able to achieve anything and would be destroyed. If he also summoned the guild to fight, it would develop into a large-scale guild war. It was uncertain whether this kind of melee could achieve the training effect that Happy hoped for, and it would definitely damage the guild's strength. Continuing would be meaningless.

"Ahem, the Boss is gone, what are we still fighting for?" Seeing that continuing was meaningless, Ye Xiu immediately stated his position.

The rational guild leaders didn't want this kind of meaningless fighting, so they all came to persuade their own professional gods.

With the gods persuaded, the other players were of course easy to talk to. The battle on Happy's side ended without a hitch. Everyone looked at the Boss battlefield again. Without other guilds causing trouble, Wang Jiexi, who was in charge of Zhongcaotang, killed the Boss with great efficiency. In no time, Shadow Army Advisor Shahan was finally on the system announcement.

"Alright, alright, let's disperse, let's disperse," Ye Xiu called out to his own people.

"Aren't we fighting anymore?" Tang Rou was still not satisfied. For her today, she had no interest in the duels in the online game arena because they were too easy, too relaxed. If she hadn't seen how vast the world of Glory was, she would have lost interest long ago because she felt that it was not challenging enough.

"Well, let's stop here today! Everyone must be tired, right?" Ye Xiu asked.

A melee without any clear goals was just a battle. In the end, they were all a little dizzy from the battle. Hearing Ye Xiu's words, everyone came back to their senses and realized that this battle was really tiring!

The tense emotions that couldn't be relaxed and the continuous high-frequency operations were genuine physical and mental exhaustion. Even Tang Rou, who was still not satisfied just now, immediately showed fatigue after Ye Xiu reminded her and she paid attention.

This was also one of the reasons why Ye Xiu finally called a halt to the battle.

Glory Professional League, one match a week, was not just to extend the season. This seemingly static e-sports also had great physical consumption, especially in some parts, such as the hands that needed to perform a lot of operations. It was common to be so tired that they lost consciousness after a match. Many players had hidden injuries in their hands. Sun Zhepings hand injury could not be said to be an accident. It was his consistent fighting style that put too much pressure on his hands, which accumulated over time and eventually broke out.

The level of Glory competition was getting higher and higher, and the burden on the players in this regard was also getting greater and greater. However, the teams also attached great importance to this issue. Through scientific exercise and maintenance, the sports life of professional players was getting longer and longer.

Happy's side had limited conditions. Sometimes, for some needs, everyone often played the game for a long time in a tired state. Now, if they didn't restrain themselves in the high-level confrontation with professional players, it would not be a good thing for the people of Happy. The current situation of Happy Team was very similar to the teams in the early days of the league. The conditions were poor, and everything had to be done by the players themselves, so the players would be quite tired.

It was also because of this reason that few of the players in the early days of the league could last until today. Since Ye Xiu's retirement, Han Wenqing was the only player who had played since the first season of the league. Compared to Sun Zheping, who joined in the second season and retired due to injury in the fifth season and was somewhat similar to Han Wenqing in style, it had to be said that the existence of innate talent was real.

Compared to the first generation, the golden generation was much luckier. When they joined, the league had become regular, and more than half of the club systems were quite complete. In such a good competitive environment, the sports life of this batch of players would obviously be much better than that of the first generation. Now, in the ninth season, the golden generation had spent five complete seasons in the league. Compared to the fact that the first generation began to leave helplessly in the five seasons, the golden generation was now at the peak of their competitive state, with experience, technology, and awareness all at their best stage, which was a great time to achieve results.

However, then again, the early retirement of the first generation was also largely due to the fact that many players, like Wei Chen, were already old when they first entered the league. They would naturally be exhausted after playing for three or two years. After that, the league took shape, and there was no minimum age for players to join, only lower.

Like Lu Hanwen, who was already an All-Star at the age of 14, barring any accidents, it was conservatively estimated that he could keep this title for at least ten years, which was enough to make a group of veterans who had fought for two or three seasons and then retired helplessly burst into tears.

Considering all these factors, Team Happy, which aimed for the professional circle, could not be careless.

"Do hand exercises before going to bed," Ye Xiu instructed everyone who was going offline to rest.
