Bet
Lord Grim disappeared shortly after .
Seeing that Zhang Xinjie’s Endless Night wasn’t moving, Jiang You and the others didn’t go and chase . All they could do was helplessly move their characters over to Endless Night’s side .
Even though none of them had died this time, the outcome was completely different than what they had expected . When Lord Grim was hit by Sacred Fire, they all thought that the situation was already set . They were all exclaiming how different it was to have a true expert help them . But in the end, two traps had turned over the double Sacred Fire situation and Lord Grim had escaped . From this point of view, the winner was still Lord Grim .
Jiang You and the others couldn’t help but feel dejected when they heard Zhang Xinjie say: “The weapon in his hands didn’t seem to have changed forms . ”
A voice from outside of the game came: “He wasn’t holding his original weapon . That’s the Nightwalker class Level 30 Purple weapon, Twin Tailed Swords . ”
The one who spoke was Endless Night . He played in the new server, so Endless Night was very knowledgeable about equipment at this level . It didn’t matter what class the weapon was from, he could recognize it .
“Purple weapon?” The others repeated it back .
From when Lord Grim first appeared to his escape, the entire battle hadn’t even taken a minute . They hadn’t yet had time to reflect on the details of the battle . Endless Night, who hadn’t been playing, had seen everything clearly . He had been standing behind Zhang Xinjie and Zhang Xinjie hadn’t done much in the battle besides giving commands . The only time he really did anything else was when he used Sacred Fire . His character’s camera constantly shifted to observe each player’s situation . Having a general outlook of the field was an important skill for Clerics to have . Endless Night hadn’t even watched for a minute, but already felt like he had gained a lot .
“Oh, that guy fought all throughout the night yesterday and hadn’t had the chance to return back to the city . My guess is that his weapon is running out of Durability . ” Jiang You thought for a bit and then said . His guess was quite on point .
“So it’s like that . ” Zhang Xinjie said .
“How unlucky . If it wasn’t for those two traps…… . ” The Striker gloomily said . In this battle, he had been the most unfortunate . The blood from the Cut Throat made his character look miserable and the Poison from the trap had only just wore off .
“If the Gunner had been a bit faster, then he wouldn’t have had the chance to put down those two traps . ” Zhang Xinjie quickly said .
“Uh……” The Sharpshooter didn’t know what to say .
“The Cleric’s Sacred Fire was half a second early . The Mage initiated just a bit too slowly . ” Zhang Xinjie continued .
Jiang You and the Cleric were silent .
“The Striker likes to punch while moving fast…… but he needs to work on his accuracy . ”
“Oh… . . ” The Striker replied .
Of the team of five, four of them had been called out by Zhang Xinjie . They couldn’t help but shudder when they thought of what would have happened to them if they had partied with the team captain Han Wenqing . If all of these mistakes had led to Lord Grim escaping, they’d probably have been bombarded by the team captain’s shouts already .
“Then what should we do next?” Jiang You and the others felt like they didn’t have the ability to stop Lord Grim, so they didn’t have any suggestions to make . Right now, with Zhang Xinjie, they took the chance to ask for his advice . There was clearly no way Zhang Xinjie could continue to accompany them and waste his time on Lord Grim . He had only said he would “take a look”, so he was probably done looking around by now . What would the vice-captain suggest? Jiang You looked forward to his answer .
“The main conflict is the competition for the dungeon records . If we keep fighting like this, then all we’re doing is wasting each other’s time and effort . There’s nothing good that will come from it . ” Zhang Xinjie said .
“Yeah!” Jiang You hastily replied .
“That’s why I made a deal with him . Tonight, we’ll go to the Arena and do a 5v5 team competition . If we win, they won’t touch the records set by Tyrannical Ambition .
“Ah! Really?’ Jiang You exclaimed happily .
‘But he has conditions on his side too . I’ll send you it . See if you can accept it . ” Zhang Xinjie said and sent Lord Grim’s message to Jiang You . The final decision had to be done by Jiang You, since Jiang You was the person in charge of the guild .
Jiang You looked at the stakes . Eight Scarlet Scorpion Tails, eight Scarlet Stingers, a Scarlet Illusion Blade, forty Sandworm Silk . So familiar! Wasn’t this list very similar to the one that Lord Grim had given when Cold Night went to negotiate with Lord Grim over Line Canyon? But, it was a bit different compared to last time .
Amber Crystal! Lord Grim hadn’t included an Amber Crystal this time, which was originally the most valuable item . Which means…… . Could the Cliff Ronin Alpine have dropped an Amber Crystal? Now that he has it, he doesn’t need it? F*ck!
But if the other side has it already, then the stakes were a lot lower . Jiang You thought as he said: “Yeah, I can accept these conditions…… . . ”
But if the other side has it already, then the stakes were a lot lower . Jiang You thought as he said: “Yeah, I can accept these conditions…… . . ”
“Hold on . I haven’t sent everything yet . ” Zhang Xinjie sent another message . Jiang You looked at it and fell even more depressed . The stakes hadn’t lowered one bit . With the new message, there was another list of uncommon materials, which equalled in value to an Amber Crystal .
Jiang You cursed at Lord Grim and then closed the message .
“So he said that if we win, then they won’t touch any of our Tyrannical Ambition records ever again?” Jiang You asked Zhang Xinjie .
“Yes . That was the agreement . ” Zhang Xinjie said .
“Then I can accept these conditions . ” Jiang You said, “I’m just afraid he won’t uphold the agreement!”
“It’s not like we’ll lose much if we win the team competition, no?”
“That’s true . ” Jiang You nodded his head and pondered silently . Endless Night, who was behind them, stood out and said: “You can trust Lord Grim . There hasn’t been any crazy records recently . ”
“Really?’ Jiang You saw Lord Grim as evil and deceitful . Hiding for a half and an hour to steal their BOSS, sneakily setting up two traps, just looking at these two events, Jiang You wasn’t able to see Lord Grim as anyone trustworthy .
“We can tell the whole world of the bet . That way, if he goes back on his word, everyone will know and no one will ever trust him again . ” Someone suggested .
“We can tell the whole world of the bet . That way, if he goes back on his word, everyone will know and no one will ever trust him again . ” Someone suggested .
“Hm…… . ” Jiang You hesitated and looked at Zhang Xinjie . He really wanted to know how confident Zhang Xinjie was in the team competition, but asking him would mean that he would be questioning Zhang Xinjie’s skill . Should I ask or not……
Telling the whole world of the bet was a double-edged sword! Didn’t the Poplar Beach massacre just happen? He lost so badly that he was too afraid of playing again . If they lost this fight, then the players participating wouldn’t be the only ones losing face, but the entire guild . It’d be even worse than Poplar Beach .
“Vice-captain Zhang, what do you think of our chances of winning?’ Jiang You decided to ask him .
“If we’re going by individual strength, Lord Grim’s skill level is certainly above yours, which is why I asked for a team competition . Team competitions require strategy, coordination, and a team synergy . You said that Lord Grim’s team have only just recently been formed, while you guys have been playing for a long time together . In terms of synergy, isn’t it obvious who has the advantage? Their individual ability might be their advantage, but we are a better team . ” Zhang Xinjie said .
“We don’t completely lose in individual strength! We still have you, vice-captain!” The Striker said .
Everyone chuckled, but Zhang Xinjie shook his head: “In a team competition, controlling each individual’s tempo and coordination is more important . You must be calm . Blindly showing off your strength will only seem out of place . Coming apart from the team’s tempo will only lead to you being the team’s weakness . ”
The Striker’s flattery hadn’t gone well . Jiang You didn’t pay attention to all this . Even after saying so much, Zhang Xinjie only told them of their advantages . He didn’t say what their chances were exactly . Jiang You wanted a direct answer . Zhang Xinjie continued to speak though: “In any case, as long as it is a competition, there is no way of knowing the odds completely . I can only say that in theory, we have a higher winning chance . If not, then I wouldn’t have directly asked to bet with Lord Grim . ”
“Alright! Then I’ll agree to the bet . We can talk about the other details later!” Jiang You decided . Now it was just a matter of whether he should announce the bet to the world . That, he’d have to consider some more!
