It was midnight. Normally, Ye Xiu would have switched to the front desk an hour ago. However, today was the Christmas event and Ye Xiu had created such a big scene. As a spectator, Chen Guo was even more concerned than Ye Xiu. She directly gave him a special leave and randomly sent someone to replace Ye Xiu on the night shift.
Chen Guo was currently controlling Han Yanrou to pick up presents. Next to her, a gunshot and a cannon shot rang out. Lord Grim and Cleansing Mist had already jumped down from the top of the tower. Using the recoil of a gun, the impact of a character falling down could be reduced, reducing the damage taken. As for how many shots a character needed to fire from a gun, these were things that Ye Xiu and the others naturally knew. Otherwise, if they really jumped down from the top of the tower and died, that would be a joke.
The two characters came down one after the other and immediately began picking up presents. However, Lord Grim kept throwing potions as he picked them up. They were all mana potions with blue potions. He complained, "Look, I said too much!"
"More is better than nothing." Cleansing Mist said. She also buried her head in picking up presents and threw away all the extra items on her body.
Who knew how long it had been since the first Christmas thief died. In reality, quite a few presents had already been refreshed by the system. In any case, even the three of them couldn't pick them all up. Unless those presents would never be refreshed, there was no point in keeping them up until now.
The three characters circled around the corpses and picked up presents. In the surrounding streets, there were several pairs of eyes quietly watching this scene.
The main forces of the Six Great Guilds had retreated, but they had all agreed to leave one person behind. In case Lord Grim made a seemingly impossible mistake and died, everyone would be able to immediately rush over. In the end, Lord Grim didn't leave anything for them. In the end, the pile of presents hanging from the corpses made them drool all over the floor. Where did all those announcements on TV come from? I took this gift to Santa Claus to exchange for it!
Picking up items did not require any finesse, so the three of them were very fast. They quickly filled up their respective bags. Looking at the remaining items on the ground, even Ye Xiu felt that it was a pity. In the end, he saw that Han Yanrou, one of Chen Guo's subordinates, turned around and left without hesitation. Ye Xiu was admiring the Lady Boss's decisiveness when he heard Chen Guo anxiously shout, "Hurry up! Hurry up and hand it in. Maybe you won't be able to clear it when you come back. "
Ye Xiu, who was next to Chen Guo, wiped his sweat and silently followed. Su Mucheng's Cleansing Mist also followed behind the two. But now, all three of them were carrying a full load, and their steps were staggering. Even Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng's characters, who were using Aerial Fire, didn't have the slightest bit of elegance.
There were Santa Claus in every leveling area, making it easier for players to hand in their quests. In Sin City, Santa Claus was at the entrance of the town. It was quite a distance from the middle of the map to the clock tower. With their current movement speed, Ye Xiu wasn't optimistic that they'd be able to return by the time they handed in their gift bags.
After calculating the amount of points they would get in the next 10 hours, Ye Xiu secretly sighed. In reality, his actions were harming others far more than benefiting himself.
For the big guilds, Ye Xiu's actions had completely shrunk Sin City's originally plentiful Thief resources. Their gains weren't much better than those in Line Canyon and Desolate Land. They didn't get many points, and there was no need to mention the gift bags.
As for Ye Xiu, if it was a normal quest, with his previous efficiency, he wouldn't be able to get 341 Christmas Thief points in 10 hours. But now, the 341 Christmas Thief points were split evenly between the three of them, so there wasn't much of a difference between them. As for the gift bags, the loss was even greater. If it was a normal quest, the gift bags wouldn't be wasted like this. Right now, the three of them only had a few dozen gift bags each. If it was a normal quest, Ye Xiu would be able to get over a hundred in 10 hours.
In the end, the difference between Ye Xiu and the big guilds was enormous. But this was because the big guilds' profits had been reduced. As for Ye Xiu himself, his profits had also been reduced.
This wasn't what Ye Xiu wanted to see. He would rather quietly do quests and earn more points to exchange for more rewards. As for how much the big guilds could earn, Ye Xiu didn't care at all. Unfortunately, there were people who wanted to make things difficult for him. Ye Xiu was deeply regretful about this. He just hoped that in the next 24 hours, everyone could face this problem rationally. It was rare for the system to have a holiday event, so it wouldn't be good for both sides to suffer losses.
As they thought about this, the three of them finally arrived at Santa Claus's place. The stolen gifts were naturally sent to Santa Claus's place one after another. Chen Guo was anxious. She clicked on the mouse and changed all the gifts into gift bags in an instant. Then she turned around and ran. As she ran towards the clock tower, she opened the gift bags as she ran.
In the end, her luck was quite good. After opening all the gift bags, she actually appeared on TV three times. Twice, she received a piece of Purple equipment. Although it wasn't used by her class, it could at least be exchanged for some money. The third time, she actually received a skill book with + 20 Skill Points. After Chen Guo finished cheering, she suddenly realized that the account wasn't hers. However, she was still very proud of her luck.
Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng's luck wasn't as good as Chen Guo's. Fortunately, there were a lot of gifts, so they each appeared on TV once. They each received a piece of ordinary Purple equipment. The two of them didn't care too much about it.
However, the three of them all broke through Level 31 and rose to Level 32 while opening the gift bags. Getting the Christmas thief already gave them a lot of experience. Opening the gift bags gave them even more rewards. These system events were always a good opportunity to earn money and experience. It was rare for the game system to give out some benefits. Otherwise, why would the players rush like a flock of ducks?
Seeing that the three characters had all leveled up, Ye Xiu thought of his teammates. He opened up his friends list and saw that Baozi wasn't online. Qiao Yifan hadn't shown up that night either. Baozi didn't know much about Ye Xiu. As for Qiao Yifan, he was a member of a pro team. On a holiday like this, it was very likely that they would organize some group activities for the team members to get to know each other better. For example, Excellent Era always had such a habit. As soon as he thought of this, he immediately sent a message to Su Mucheng: "It's Christmas Eve. The team doesn't have any activities?"
"We do!" Su Mucheng replied.
"Why didn't you go?"
"I'm sick!" Su Mucheng said.
"......"
The three of them quickly returned to the bottom of the clock tower. Their efforts weren't in vain. There were still a few gifts that hadn't finished spawning. However, there were only a dozen or so of them. This time, Chen Guo didn't throw caution to the wind. She calmly split the remaining gifts with Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng.
The stolen gifts were gone, and the corpses were almost all gone. The clock tower looked like it would soon return to normal. Chen Guo still wanted more. She got up and returned Han Yanrou to Tang Rou. Then, she pushed Ye Xiu: "Quick, let's gather again."
Ye Xiu smiled bitterly: "Boss, think about it carefully. What's the difference between gathering like this and killing on my own?"
Chen Guo stared blankly. She thought about Ye Xiu's achievement of killing fourteen Christmas thieves in one hour. Gathering like this really didn't seem to give them anything. Perhaps, they didn't get enough gift packs?
However, the three characters on the Christmas Hunting Leaderboard were far ahead of everyone else! As soon as she thought of this, Chen Guo felt relaxed and happy. This kind of achievement was extremely rare for a normal player like her. However, for Ye Xiu, he hoped to get more substantial points. Why would he care about a ranking with a normal player? Did he have to?
As for Chen Guo's eagerness to gather the monsters again, Ye Xiu declined and went to the toilet. He hadn't moved from his seat for more than twelve hours. Ye Xiu also needed to take care of his metabolism.
He went to the toilet, ate something, and drank some water. Considering that there were too many people who had bad intentions towards him, Ye Xiu didn't hang up. Instead, he chose to log out of the game.
Lord Grim had gone offline!
The guilds who suddenly noticed this were first stunned, then ecstatic. After the Christmas thieves in the clock tower were all killed, the Christmas thieves in the City of Sin returned to their previous prosperity. The guilds were actively plundering them. Now that they discovered that Lord Grim had gone offline, it couldn't be better news. Especially for Chen Yehui, this was as good as removing a thorn in his heart. He immediately looked at the leaderboard. Since the points were split evenly among three people, although they were ahead of the fifteen players, the difference wasn't so big that it made them despair.
Ye Qiu had gone offline, but they didn't! There was still a lot of time to catch up.
Chen Yehui gave out orders in high spirits. Based on their efficiency under normal circumstances, they came up with a plan to overtake Lord Grim in four hours. After five hours, the fifteen players would take back the fifteenth place on the leaderboard.
Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. After half an hour of work, at one o 'clock in the morning, the sound of a system notification shook the hearts of many leaders.
System Notification: Friend Lord Grim is online.
Friend Lord Grim!
Everyone wanted to dig these words out of the screen and eat them. This wasn't a friend! Definitely not!
Several leaders created their own name cards to vent their anger. They labeled Lord Grim as a bastard, a beast, a bandit, and a robber. Otherwise, this idea wouldn't have worked.
But how could this mess affect Ye Xiu? After entering the game, Ye Xiu sat in a comfortable position and looked strangely at Chen Guo: "Boss, why aren't you resting yet?"
"I'm moving!" Chen Guo said. Chasing Haze rushed into the Heavenly Domain.
"Tsk tsk!" Ye Xiu sighed. He turned his head and saw that he had received a message.
He moved his mouse over and saw that there was more than one message. He opened it and saw that it was from Lan He: "God, are you still going to play like that?"
After Lan He found out about Ye Xiu's identity, the way he addressed him changed. He didn't have the nerve to call him brother like before.
