Chapter 183: Chapter 181: “You don’t really want to go to hell on a business trip at the public’s expense again, do you?
While the Sin Departnt was throwing a celebration party, other teams continuously cleared this map.
The team leaderboard for “Destiny’s Adversary” map kept refreshing nonstop.
What was amusing, though…
Aside from the first place, Chen Yi’s team “Rabbits Do Not Kill” with a map evaluation score of 100%,
the scores for the teams from second to seventh place were all 1%.
It looked oddly neat.
Originally, Scarface felt a bit embarrassed about throwing a celebration party for a re 1% map evaluation score, considering that even though the outside world had a good opinion of the Sin Departnt now, a score of 1% was, after all, quite literal.
But after seeing the teams that followed and cleared the map also scoring a uniform 1%, he felt much more balanced internally.
Apart from helplessly remarking that Chen Yi was truly too abnormal, there was nothing left to do but raise his glass even higher and celebrate with even more gusto.
1%?
Bullshit!
This is second place! Second in the world!
That’s enough to take pride in!
Don’t worry about how far behind the first place I am; just tell if the current number two on the leaderboard is not their Sin Departnt?
It is? Then that’s it!
Drink up! Why fuss over such nonsense?
As long as you et the threshold of having a flying vehicle, clearing this map isn’t hard; it just takes a bit more ti, as you must survive for 24 hours within the map!
The first batch of teams that entered this map have also all co out by now, and with the scattered updates from various teams spreading out, more and more teams will clear this map.
Ascending from a lv.1 team to a lv.2 team requires one important condition: clearing a D-class map once.
This map is expected to beco the most frequently cleared map.
The additional effects gained from a team’s promotion are quite useful.
There are two effects.
One is damage transfer, which allows the division of a severely injured teammate’s damage among all the other team mbers, potentially saving a dying teammate from the brink of death at the crucial mont.
The other is a skill reset, which gives three chances a week to reset the cooldowns of any team mber’s prop, skill, title, etc.
Both effects are very practical.
However, it’s already July 2nd today, and there has yet to be news of any power establishing a guild, nor whispers of a Guild Creation Order being circulated, suggesting that this prop is not easy to co by.
…
anwhile, Tuberculosis Rabbit was sitting on a beach chair on the rooftop, looking at the “Destiny’s Adversary” team leaderboard with a contemplative expression and exclaid, “Brother Scarface’s ntality is pretty good. Even like this, he hasn’t been beaten down, and it looks like he’s quite satisfied.”
“Yi, are we going to continue with map exploration?”
“If we clear one more D-class map, our team will advance to lv.3.”
Chen Yi didn’t speak; he just slightly furrowed his brows, looking at his chat box with Jiaye with a sense of unease.
He had sent Jiaye more than a dozen ssages, and Jiaye hadn’t replied to a single one.
He didn’t know if sothing had happened to him.
If he had known, he would have pulled Jiaye into the team. After joining a team, one could imdiately see the vital status of teammates; he would then know whether Jiaye was dead or alive, unlike now when he had no idea about Jiaye’s status.
“Ah well.”
Tuberculosis Rabbit lay on the beach chair, dressed in a colorful coconut-patterned beach outfit holding a chilled coconut water, wearing sunglasses, and enjoying a natural sunbath. He spoke carelessly, with a cigarette in his mouth.
“Yi, you don’t need to worry too much. Jiaye might have gone to explore a map, or he might just not have woken up yet.”
“Even if we think of the worst, if she really is dead, that’s still not a big issue.”
“In this ga, when players die they all go to hell, so we can just have Sword Without End go down there and bring Jiaye back up. With Sword Without End’s strength, bringing two people up shouldn’t be much of a problem.”
Chen Yi’s brow didn’t relax, he just turned his head and stared into the distance for a while before speaking softly, “I’m feeling a bit uneasy. If she went to a lower map, she should have told , but now there’s no ssage at all. The likelihood of sothing bad happening is a bit higher.”
“What’s more, what if she died in hell, too?”
“If she died in hell, then she can’t be brought back.”
He was sowhat anxious.
But even with the anxiety, it seed futile; he had no idea where to look for Jiaye.
“That shouldn’t be possible.”
Seeing that Chen Yi still hadn’t relaxed, Tuberculosis Rabbit sat up straight, took off his sunglasses, and expressed his doubts, “Considering Jiaye and Tie Chui’s sibling combo, even if we wanted to kill them… well, it’s quite easy for us to kill them.”
“But not everyone is as strong as we are, and it should be difficult for others to kill the sibling duo, shouldn’t it?”
“Moreover, Tie Chui is not weak either, she’s already King Malphite, and there aren’t many who can beat her in close combat.”
“Let’s say there wasn’t even a chase, they should have had the ti to send us a ssage, right?”
“Unless they didn’t have ti to react and were killed instantly.”
“Huh!”
After pondering for a mont with squinted eyes, Chen Yi finally spoke, “Contact Sword Without End and see if he has any prop that can pinpoint a player’s exact coordinates.”
…
“Looking for soone, eh?”
Sword Without End, who suddenly understood, stood on the rooftop and looked at the two people in front of him, “I’m familiar with this. You just need to pass the Social Engineering test. Did you see soone bad-mouthing you online?”
“I actually suggest you don’t even bother looking.”
“Just go to Black Trench City, kill anyone randomly, and maybe you’ll just happen to kill that trash-talker.”
“That place is infested with trash-talkers.”
“Even if it’s not the one targeting you, they’ve definitely trashed soone else, so killing them wouldn’t be a mistake.”
“No, it’s not that.”
Chen Yi, leaning on his cane, stood still, staring into Sword Without End’s eyes, and spoke softly, “Jiaye has gone missing; she might be in trouble. I need her exact coordinates.”
“That girl? If that’s the case…”
Sword Without End hesitated a little before speaking tentatively, “I actually do know soone who has such a prop. It’s a C-class prop with a limited number of uses, you just need to enter the player’s full information.”
“You can clearly find out the player’s coordinates, as well as their physical condition, and other relevant information.”
“Then what are we waiting for?”
Tuberculosis Rabbit leaped into the sled parked on the rooftop, waved at Sword Without End, and urged, “Go find that person. What are you waiting for? You don’t want to make another public-funded trip to hell on business, do you?”
“It’s urgent.”
“It might be a bit dicey.”
Sword Without End spread his hands helplessly, “That prop is in the hands of Zhou Ziqiang, the President of Skywake.”
“Skywake just had their faces slapped hard by us, going there now to borrow that prop is pretty much hopeless and if we’re talking about breaking in… it’s going to be tough.”
…
ps: Sorry, I got a stomachache from the barbecue again yesterday; I was stuck on the toilet and couldn’t get down.
Really sorry.
The remaining two chapters are being edited, I’ll post them after I’m done with the bathroom.
