I won?
Chen Guo was dumbfounded. The word "Glory" flashed on the screen. This was the Arena's signature victory symbol. It meant "K.O."
But how long had it been since she left? 40 seconds? 50 seconds? Chen Guo looked at her watch. It definitely hadn't even been a minute. And the result? The opponent that she had just lost 52 rounds to had been "Glory" defeated in less than a minute by this person?
Chen Guo even forgot to rush up and snatch back her account. She was hoping that this person would play another round so that she could take a good look. But in the end, she saw that this person had already exited the game. He stretched lazily and looked around as if he wasn't too interested in the computer. When he turned his head, he saw Chen Guo staring at him with wide eyes. He hurriedly explained: "You didn't exit the game just now. When I sat down, the battle had already begun. I helped you win. Don't worry!"
"How long did it take?" Chen Guo asked.
"Around 40 seconds!" Ye Qiu said.
Chen Guo's mouth fell open. The other party said with some regret: "My hands were frozen. Otherwise, 30 seconds would have been enough."
30 seconds … … 30 seconds to defeat an opponent that she couldn't defeat in 52 rounds. What kind of person was this?
Could it be a professional player from Team Excellent Era? Chen Guo suddenly thought of something. She knew that the Excellent Era Club wasn't too far from her Internet cafe. But then she thought about it. She could recognize a player from Team Excellent Era! Unless this person was that expert Ye Qiu who never showed his face.
Ye Qiu! Just thinking of this name made Chen Guo excited. But then she remembered that this expert had always kept a low profile. If she rushed up and asked, he probably wouldn't admit it. After hesitating for a moment, Chen Guo suddenly thought of something and ran back to the front desk.
"What's the name of the customer in Area C, Computer 47?" Chen Guo asked the girl behind the counter.
"Ye Xiu." The girl said.
"Ye Xiu … … Ye Qiu? As expected! " Chen Guo was excited. In her eyes, this was the same as revealing three hundred taels of silver hidden here. This proved that this person was Ye Qiu. If he had really written Ye Qiu, she wouldn't have believed it!
"Heh heh heh …" Chen Guo's smile was sinister. She was ready to search for everything she could find to get this person's signature. Ye Qiu's autograph! Who has it? No one!
Just as he was thinking, his little sister casually added, "He even left his ID card here."
"ID card?" Chen Guo was stunned. Only then did she realize that she had been too excited. Internet cafes required a real-name registration system. Of course, one had to show their ID. Who would use a fake name to register?
"Where's your identification card? Let me see. " Chen Guo took the ID card from her younger sister and looked at it. Sure enough, it really did say Ye Xiu. She was immediately disappointed and had the urge to change the character 'Xiu' to 'Qiu'.
After finding out that this person wasn't the low-key expert she had admired for a long time, even though she was also curious about this person's strength, her interest had mostly disappeared. Chen Guo resentfully returned to Area C, Room 47, and handed back Ye Xiu's ID card: "You forgot your ID card."
"Oh, thank you." Ye Xiu hastily took it back, "You're from the Internet cafe?"
"Yeah, I'm the boss here."
"Oh? Boss, that's great. I just saw on your Internet cafe's website that you're hiring an Internet cafe manager? "Ye Xiu asked.
"Ah … Yeah …" Chen Guo didn't think that this person would suddenly say this. She was just thinking about how to get this person to compare notes with her. This would give her a good excuse.
"I saw it. I think I meet the requirements. I have no problems with the job and salary. How about it? Think about it boss. "Ye Xiu said.
"Oh, then you'll have to beat me in a 1v1 in Glory." Chen Guo said.
"What? Is there this one? "Ye Xiu turned around to look.
"Don't look for it. I just added it." Chen Guo said.
Ye Xiu stared blankly. He immediately understood that his previous victory had been too professional. This beautiful boss was curious about his skill. Unfortunately … Ye Xiu bitterly smiled and shook his head, saying: "I can't beat you."
"Why?" Chen Guo stared blankly.
"Because I don't have an account that can beat you." Ye Xiu said.
"Account … What level is your account? What equipment do you have? "Chen Guo asked.
"No level. No equipment." Ye Xiu said.
"No way?" Chen Guo didn't believe it. To be able to beat someone she couldn't beat in 40 seconds. If this kind of person only had a new account that didn't have a level, then how did he train?
"I gave my original account to someone else." Ye Xiu could only say this.
"Oh, so it's like that … You're quite generous." Chen Guo sighed. This person was so strong. His account definitely wouldn't be weak either. Powerful accounts were worth a lot of money. To give them away so casually was very generous.
"Yeah, too generous." Ye Xiu bitterly smiled. The account he gave away was the Battle God, One Leaf Of Autumn. To only use the word "generous" to describe it was too stingy.
"Are you planning on going to the new server to play?" Chen Guo asked.
"New server?" Ye Xiu stared blankly. He looked at today's date and suddenly understood.
Tomorrow was Glory's tenth anniversary. Starting from the second anniversary of Glory, a new server would be opened at midnight every year. The tenth edition account cards had been on sale since three months ago. The old players who weren't happy playing in the old servers and the new players who were preparing to enter Glory had all prepared accounts in the new server and were eagerly awaiting this day.
Today, Glory's tenth server was open. One Leaf Of Autumn was still a Glory account in the first server. Later, in the fifth chapter of Glory's update, the Heavenly Domain, he and many other experts had reached the standard and completed the skill challenge, becoming the first batch of players and accounts with the qualifications to enter the public map, the Heavenly Domain.
Now that One Leaf Of Autumn had changed owners, his career in Glory had come to an end. Coincidentally, the new server opened once a year. Ye Xiu's thoughts were stirred. Ten years of memories suddenly slid into his mind.
"New server?" Ye Xiu muttered to himself.
"I remember that before the new server opened, you could apply for a server transfer, right?" Ye Xiu suddenly asked Chen Guo.
"Only Level 1 accounts that are not in use can." Chen Guo said.
"Then I'll try." Ye Xiu said as he pulled out an account card from his pocket and quickly entered the Glory server transfer application page. Chen Guo looked at the account card in astonishment: "This isn't a first edition card, is it?"
"It's a first edition card." Ye Xiu laughed. Glory's account cards were updated once a year. A first edition card would have been around ten years ago.
Chen Guo looked at Ye Xiu in astonishment: "How long have you been playing Glory?" Cards were dead, but people were alive. The card might have been around for ten years, but the person might not be.
"Almost ten years." Ye Xiu replied, proving that he was one with the card.
Chen Guo had been playing for five years and already felt that she was quite experienced. She didn't think that this guy in front of her would be twice as experienced as her. Ten years. That was Glory's first batch of players. To be able to play until now and still have the interest to go to a new server, what kind of spirit was this?
As they spoke, the page displayed a "server transfer successful."
"It's done." Ye Xiu took back the account card. Holding it in his hand, he suddenly remembered the bits and pieces of this first edition card.
"You said you want to be an Internet Cafe manager?" Chen Guo suddenly brought this up.
"Yes." Ye Xiu immediately returned to reality from his memories.
"Which one are you looking at?" Chen Guo asked.
"The one who works the night shift." Ye Xiu said.
"Oh, you can do it?" Chen Guo was surprised. The night shift was a night shift from 11 PM to 7 AM. The monthly salary was 300 yuan more than the other jobs, but very few people applied. After all, not many people were happy to have their day and night reversed. As a result, Chen Guo currently had everyone take turns. If someone really applied for the night shift, then everyone would be relieved.
"Sure, sure. I like to work at night." Ye Xiu said.
Chen Guo carefully sized up the person in front of her. His hair and beard hadn't been taken care of for at least half a month. His face was a bit chubby. Even though it was clean, it was a sickly pale color. His two eyes were staring at her, somewhat listless. She had seen this appearance many times. The youths who frequently came to her Internet Cafe all night often had this appearance. This guy in front of her wasn't young, but he was unexpectedly so dispirited.
Disdain was disdain, but Chen Guo still welcomed someone who was willing to be a full time Night Cat. What's more, she was also curious about this person's ten years of experience. She immediately decided: "Okay, then I'll take you in."
"Thank you boss."
"You've seen the conditions. Just follow them." Chen Guo said.
"No problem."
"Okay, then follow me!" Chen Guo was straightforward. After taking in Ye Xiu, she immediately began ordering Ye Xiu around as an employee. She ordered him to move the pile of new keyboards that had arrived today and hadn't yet been tidied up to the storage room on the second floor.
Chen Guo's Internet Cafe was called "Happy Internet Club." It was considered a relatively high-end Internet Cafe. It had two floors and over a thousand computers. The second floor was slightly smaller, but it was clearly more luxurious. It was a high-end area. Moreover, there was a cave inside. It hid a suite with two rooms and a living room. The storage room was also in this suite. Ye Xiu busied himself moving the keyboards up and down. He had already inspected this suite. The recruitment notice had written: Food and lodging are included. Ye Xiu had just left the club. He hadn't thought of where to go next. Food and lodging were the same as arranging a place for him to stay. This was why he was interested in this Internet Cafe manager position.
Now it seemed that this suite was probably a place for "lodging." Even though the decoration was simple, it was clean and tidy. It was very good. Ye Xiu was very satisfied. He thought as he moved the last few keyboards up.
"Okay, this will be your place." Seeing that Ye Xiu had finished his work, Chen Guo immediately pointed at the low bed in the storage room.
"Ah?" Ye Xiu was startled. His dream was to live in a clean suite with bright windows. Even the sofa in the living room would be good. Here … Ye Xiu looked up. There was a small window on the west wall of the small storage room. It seemed to be facing the street lamp outside. When he turned off the lights in the storage room, the small window immediately dimmed. It looked like it was haunted.
"Uh, that's a bit lacking. Just make do for now … … Actually, my Internet Cafe doesn't have many people with you, and it doesn't have many without you. I'm not lacking people. The recruitment post you saw was from a long time ago."
"Oh, I see! It's fine, it's fine. This is quite good. " Ye Xiu immediately expressed his attitude. His nonchalant attitude made Chen Guo feel a little bad. This small storage room really didn't seem like a place for people to live.
"If you have nothing to do, just go downstairs and play computer games. It's fine. We don't charge you," Chen Guo said.
"Boss, you're very generous too!"
"Ahem, there are thousands of computers. I'm missing one!" Chen Guo said.
"How's the customer flow?" Ye Xiu asked.
"Not bad. In any case, I'm very satisfied." Chen Guo said, "Of course, there aren't many people on the night shift. Most of them are university students from nearby universities. You actually don't have much to do. You just have to look after the place."
"Understood."
"So, in order to get used to your new job, how about pulling an all-nighter tonight? I'll also test you and see how good you are at pulling an all-nighter, "Chen Guo said.
"No problem. I'm at full capacity," Ye Xiu gave Chen Guo two thumbs up to show that pulling an all-nighter was his strength.
"Alright then. Let's go downstairs. I'll treat you to a midnight snack," Chen Guo said.
"Oh? What do you want to eat? "
"There's nothing to eat at this time. There's a small restaurant across the road that shouldn't be closed yet. Go take a look and buy a few vegetables. I don't eat celery," Chen Guo said as she took out two hundred yuan from her pocket and stuffed it into Ye Xiu's hands.
"It's snowing!" Ye Xiu said.
"It's just crossing the road. It's not that far. How much snow can it get? Hurry up and go, "Chen Guo said.
Ye Xiu had no choice but to go out and cross the road to buy a midnight snack. He had just changed his job and was ordered around again. However, he didn't feel very gloomy. This woman casually chatted with people and didn't treat them as outsiders. This kind of friendliness made people feel quite comfortable and close. Thinking of this, Ye Xiu suddenly realized that he hadn't even asked what his new boss's name was.

During the public period, there were two updates a day, around 12 noon and 8 pm. Because the automatic update assistant wasn't here, it couldn't be that accurate! In addition, there wasn't much essence in the first week of the new book. Everyone in the book review section should be lonely for a while!
