Chapter 987: The Part-Time Expert (3)
Tonight’s Moon: Whatever, I’m in.
Qingqiu Zhong: Wind God is offering the invitation, I must join!
Yellow Crane Returning West: Yes.
The Overlapped Moon and Sun: I’m in too, then.
Jiang Liu: Wind God, Wind God, which club?
Wind He Rising: NS.
Qingqiu Zhong: I’ve always wondered what their letters mean. Wind God, ask them, ask them.
The NS Club was kinda famous in the industry.
But there had been no official answer to what the two letters were short for.
Ming Shu’s mouth twitched. She asked Wang Heyang, “What does the two letters of your club name mean?”
Wang Heyang felt a little strange, but still answered, “It’s short for Nan Shen (meaning Prince Charming).”
Ming Shu: “…”
All the experts: “…”
They thought it was the abbreviation of some kind of high-end, magnificent, classy English words, who knew it was just short for Chinese words… Nan Shen?
Shameless!
Ming Shu asked Wang Heyang to prepare the helmets so that they could go online and show him their real strength.
Asking Gods was quite popular now, so even though their club had not yet formed a team, they had the helmets.
At this time, it hadn’t reached the stage where one helmet could be bound to one account; at present, the game helmet was more like a login server, and you only needed to enter the account you’re tied to, then you could log in.
Ming Shu logged in. She came back to the place where she had gotten offline earlier, and the previous boy had also left.
Asking Gods provided storylines and competition, available to both common players and professional players.
The storyline was used for upgrading and gaining equipment, while the competition included solo competition, team competition, and group competition.
The difference between team competition and group competition was the number of players required. At least 100 people were to play a group competition. Usually, the professional competitive events were held in team competitions.
Ming Shu pulled out the Friend Interface and added Wang Heyang.
Wang Heyang was soon transferred in. He didn’t seem to be assured until he saw Ming Shu’s ID name.
Actually, he doubted it a lot when she said she was Wind He Rising.
But why did a young girl…
Why did she play a male avatar?
Wang Heyang hid his confusion and asked, “Where’re your friends?”
“Wait for a while.”
The first one who showed up was Qingqiu Zhong, with a bizarre name.
Wang Heyang was speechless. “A new player?”
“Alas, it doesn’t allow you to leave without finishing the newbie tasks, so I delayed for some time, hehe.” Qingqiu Zhong’s voice sounded fresh and cool, and he was an outgoing, handsome sunshine boy.
Wang Heyang: “…”
Then Tonight’s Moon and Yellow Crane Returning West arrived.
Tonight’s Moon looked mild, but Yellow Crane Returning West looked cool and tough. The latter had something like the tyrant boss style and was the one who provided money.
These two hid their account names, but Wang Heyang was a little relieved.
Then it was Jiang Liu, who looked like an underaged boy… He also used a new account.
Wang Heyang felt a stomachache now.
The last one was Overlapped Moon and Sun.
Ming Shu and the others had already played a round of cards when Overlapped Moon and Sun arrived.
“Sorry, guys, I went to buy the game helmet and became delayed for some time.” Overlapped Moon and Sun was a girl with a sweet voice, sounding like an anchor, and her account name was also very girlish.
“Shit, Moon and Sun, how come you’ve changed your gender!” Qingqiu Zhong jumped up directly.
“It’s my cousin’s account and I borrowed it,” Overlapped Moon and Sun said. “It takes time to sign up a new account and fill in information, I was afraid that Wind God would turn to others if I made you wait for long.”
The player’s voice would be recorded during the first time he set up an account and could not be changed afterwards. So now, Overlapped Moon and Sun had to use his cousin’s voice.
“You scared me.” Qingqiu Zhong patted his chest.
Wang Heyang felt a headache now.
What the hell? Who are these people?
“I’ll play one round with him and help him get used to the new environment,” Ming Shu said to Wang Heyang.
Wang Heyang pulled out a fake smile.
One good point about Asking Gods was that, no matter what the player’s level was, as long as you dared to, you could participate in the competition.
Among them, other than Jiang Liu who really hadn’t played Asking Gods before, Qingqiu Zhong and the rest had all played it previously.
Qingqiu Zhong didn’t want to use his official account, so he started a new one.
So, the one who needed to adapt the most was Jiang Liu.
Ming Shu opened an easy and simple map, where the competitive teams were matched by the system at random. They had players at different levels in their team, which also made the enemy team quite confused.
In competitive games, players would choose teammates of similar levels, but they were rare to see.
But when they saw clearly who the team leader was, they bubbled.
“The team leader is Wind He Rising!”
“Shit! Wind God!”
“Is Wind God trying to help level up new accounts or small accounts?”
“Wind God, Wind God, I’m your fan! Look at me!”
Ming Shu looked at the people opposite her and smiled.
But she was using a male character now, and when she smiled, she was just handsome. “Who’ll draw first?”
Asking Gods had drawing lots link after both sides entered the map to determine which side would own the place on the map.
It was all by luck whether the map was helpful or not to the team.
“Wind God, after you, please.” The people at the opposite even trembled while speaking. They actually met Wind God, they must open a livestream! Livestream!
Even if they would be beaten up in the game! They must open it!
Ming Shu didn’t decline and drew first. The map was updated soon, with different colors marking their separate places.
It was clearly shown to the players of their levels. But if they attended the professional competition, they would need to open the map themselves, and the details would not be shown unless they walked past it on the map.
The other party opened a livestream. As usual, with the name of Wind He Rising, a group of fans soon poured into the chat room.
[My Wind God!]
[Wind God, I’m coming, love you.]
[Is it true on bbs? Has Wind God really been with that A Soft Smile?]
[I don’t believe that. My Wind God isn’t that kind of superficial person!]
[I often see Wind God and A Soft Smile staying with each other, too.]
A Soft Smile was the female protagonist, and the rumors on bbs said the Host and A Soft Smile were lovers.
Anyway, the rumors had spread everywhere now. Ming Shu felt she needed to strengthen her existence since she had been “caught” by them.
[Ah… Did Wind God just now make a mistake?]
[How’s that possible? It must’ve been planned.]
Seeing these rolling words on the screen, the players on the opposite side immediately got nervous.
Ming Shu, who just made a wrong operation: “…” She was just a little unfamiliar and really made a mistake.
Tonight’s Moon: “Chongguang (i.e., Moon and Sun), you and I will go around from behind them to cut off their retreat route, Xigui (i.e., Returning West), you block them from the front, Jiang Liu will assist and protect Xigui’s life bar. Qingqiu and Wind God, you guard two separate sides.”
Tonight’s Moon quickly made the above arrangements through the team channel.
There were no detailed strategies, only a few sentences.
The others in the team immediately understood, though. They moved to their own positions and promptly began to prepare for the attack.
[They’re scattering…]
[The opposing players are gathering together, are they scattering around? Won’t they have the fight head-on?]
[Shit! They’re encircling the enemy!]
Asking Gods’s livestream was directly set in the game system, so all the other players could watch.
Wang Heyang watched the scene and paid much attention to the other people.
Jiang Liu was a little unfamiliar and made several mistakes, but the rest were all very powerful.
But…
Among them, only Jiang Liu was responsible for assistance and healing, the rest had all chosen characters that could use a knife to kill to the world’s end.
How could everyone in a team be on the offensive?
Are you kidding me!
