Chapter 174: Chapter 172: “Last ti the deputy head of this organization tried to recruit you.”
“Hurry, hurry, hurry!!!”
This ti, Chen Yi and the others, within the ten minutes inside the House of God, not only did they not head for the colored blocks, they didn’t even step on any black blocks to obtain any props, patiently waiting for ten minutes afterward.
They sped off toward the direction of the Matriarch they rembered, controlling the sled at full speed!
Not delaying a single mont.
Three minutes later.
A gigantic Demon Matriarch appeared before them. Without any hesitation, Chen Yi stopped the sled right on top of the Insect Race Queen’s head and almost jamd his sniper rifle into the Matriarch’s mouth, furiously pulling the trigger.
“Bang, bang…!”
Rapid and muffled gunshots rang out continuously!
Thirty seconds later.
‘Ding…’
The sound of completing the challenge rang in their ears.
Chen Yi’s figure reappeared on the rooftop, he glanced at the map rating in front of him and the watch on his arm, nodding slightly with satisfaction, “Total less than fourteen minutes, including ten minutes delayed in the House of God.”
“This speed is decent.”
At this mont, the ‘Global Squad Leaderboard’ already had the second squad listed.
Rank two: ‘Skywake First Team’, lv. 2 squad.
“Yi.”
Sword Without End glanced at the Global Squad Leaderboard and curled his lip, “This Skywake First Team is that organization I told you about last ti, the Skywake Organization, ford by a bunch of players.”
“The organization’s vice president even tried to recruit you before.”
“That counts as recruiting?”
Tuberculosis Rabbit, hands in his pockets, shrugged contemptuously, “If you hadn’t ntioned it, I would’ve thought it was a provocation.”
“That female vice president has so issues in the head, but I have to say the strength of this organization is not weak. They seem ready to lower the entry threshold and go the guild route.”
“There are not a few powers planning to go the guild route, including ‘Sin Departnt’, ‘Wolf Fang’, they all seem to be heading that way.”
“Do you have any thoughts about this, Yi?”
“Currently, you are the most prominent player globally, and the player with the highest fa is also you. You’re first on both the Global Vehicle Leaderboard and the Global Squad Leaderboard. If you decide to go the guild route, there will likely be no shortage of players willing to follow you.”
“No.”
Chen Yi shook his head calmly, “I don’t have such plans for the ti being.”
“Let’s continue with the next map, we can rest after one more map today.”
The conditions for a lv. 2 squad to advance to lv. 3 are quite strict.
The squad needs to possess a B-rank prop, pass a D-rank map three tis, and achieve a map rating score of over 70% at least once.
For the next map, Chen Yi had already made his choice. After browsing through the team map, he fixed his gaze on one particular map.
“Let’s go with this one.”
‘Map Na: Silent Deserted Island.’
‘Map Description: It is said that after night falls on this secluded island, it will welco so mysterious visitors.’
“Alright.”
Tuberculosis Rabbit had no objections, but he couldn’t help feeling a bit of pity for the squads still struggling in that map as he looked at ‘Destiny’s Adversary’ on the team map panel.
Yi had pushed the score limit for this map to an absurdly exaggerated extent.
He was a bit curious to see what those squads would react when they exited the map and saw their incredibly low map ratings.
On the surface, this map’s rating and that of another cleared map both show a 100% map rating, but in reality, if the full score of the other cleared map was 100 points, then their map’s full score would be 10,000 points.
No matter how well the other squads scored, even if they got a 100, it would only amount to a 1% map rating.
Simply… outrageous.
And just as they were about to enter the map on the eve of their journey, Tuberculosis Rabbit suddenly realized sothing as he looked at the team map’s panel and hastily spoke up, “Wait a minute, Yi, the map we’re going to has already been cleared, ‘Skywake First Team’ got a 100% map rating score on this map.”
“Mhm.”
Chen Yi nodded, speaking softly, “Let’s go in and see how many points we can get, to see how big the gap is between us and this Skywake Squadron.”
“This…”
Sword Without End seed hesitant to speak.
He knew Chen Yi was very strong, but clearing new maps wasn’t just about strength.
It required considering multiple factors, including attention to detail, reasoning of the plot, discovery of clues, and it also had a lot to do with the number of people in the team; not every map could be dominated by strength alone.
For instance, ‘Skywake First Team’ had a full roster of ten, while they only had three. That was certainly a significant difference.
Now, many outsiders were paying attention to the pioneering of team maps, and among them, their ‘Rabbits Do Not Kill’ team and the ‘Skywake First Team’ were the most watched. In such a scenario, if they ended up with a lower score than Skywake First Team, the impact would be hard to recover from.
This was a risky venture, less profitable than choosing an uncleared D-level map.
But before he could say more,
In the blink of an eye, their vision darkened, and their bodies disappeared from the spot, having been teleported into the map.
…
It was still dayti, still the first day of July, in the afternoon.
Around six o’clock.
Only an hour or two left before nightfall.
“Sis… sister.”
Inside the Garden District, Tie Chui carefully opened a can of beer and whispered to Jiaye, who sat by the window, “You… don’t be sad. Maybe Yi… didn’t want to invite you because he thought the team map was too dangerous…”
Jiaye didn’t speak, only tilted her head towards the beer in her brother’s hand, took it with pursed lips, tilted her head back and gulped down a bottle, wiped the beer from her lips, and looked out the window, silent.
She knew Yi had ford a team and had been waiting.
Waiting for Yi to invite her to join the team.
But even as Yi’s team topped the global team rankings, she still hadn’t received an invitation from Yi.
She thought that after making three als a day for Chen Yi and delivering them, even if he didn’t have feelings for her, they should at least be considered friends, right?
Did he think she was too weak?
Did he worry that she would hold them back?
Even Sword Without End had joined Yi’s team, yet she hadn’t heard a whisper of an invitation.
After a long ti.
“Brother.”
Jiaye’s calm voice drifted into the room with the breeze through the window, “That map access pass is still with you, right?”
“Ah?”
It took a mont for Tie Chui to co to his senses, then he realized and said, “Sister, are you talking about… the Death Domain map access pass? Weren’t you the one who said that map was too dangerous… advising not to give it to Yi… worrying that Yi would be impulsive?”
“I didn’t tell you to give it to Yi, the two of us are going in.”
“If we go in… we might die, right? That’s a… B-level map.”
“Are you afraid of dying?”
“I…”
Tie Chui looked down at the cigarette case hidden in his chest, keeping silent for a long ti before stamring softly, “I’m not afraid… I’m afraid for my sister’s life.”
“But we need to beco stronger; if we keep going like this, even if we don’t die in the map, we will gradually be eliminated for not keeping up with the strength growth of the average player.”
“The two of us have the strongest skill combination for escaping; as long as we don’t separate, we can almost escape any danger.”
“Then… okay.”
