Chen Guo actually didn't have the habit of pulling all-nighters. It was just that today was the opening of the new server, so she came along to watch the excitement. After watching, she quickly fell asleep and couldn't help but fall asleep as she leaned back in her chair.
Of course, this kind of sleep quality wasn't high. Chen Guo just didn't want to struggle to get up. While she was half-asleep, she couldn't help but notice the sound of the keyboard and mouse beside her. This kind of sound was very familiar to an Internet cafe owner, but Chen Guo heard it a little different. This sound was sometimes hurried and sometimes slow, sometimes light and sometimes heavy. It sounded very rhythmic. Chen Guo had never heard of someone who could hit the keyboard and mouse like a percussion instrument. Was she dreaming?
Chen Guo suddenly woke up. She composed herself and listened carefully. It didn't seem like a dream. This sound was coming from beside her. It was from the new Internet cafe manager Ye Xiu, who she had just recruited today.
Chen Guo wanted to sit up and take a look, but the coat on her slipped down. She quickly grabbed it and recognized it as Ye Xiu's coat. Who knew that this person was so attentive. Chen Guo thought to herself. But how long has it been since this coat was washed? It seems a little rancid.
Chen Guo picked up the coat and sat up. Just as she was about to talk to Ye Xiu, she suddenly froze.
A pair of hands that could make people cry appeared in front of her — Ye Xiu's hands.
This pair of hands looked very thin. The fingers were long and slender. The joints weren't as thick and hard as the average man's, but they were very clear. The fingertips were very thin, and the nails were neatly trimmed. This was very inconsistent with this guy's somewhat sloppy appearance.
Chen Guo wasn't someone who paid much attention to her opponents. But later on, a very beautiful girl came to the Internet cafe. She was influenced by her and gradually began to pay attention. At this moment, she was fiercely shocked by Ye Xiu's hands.
His hands were perfect. The sound of the typing was like music, but this operation … Just looking at Ye Xiu's left hand moving on the keyboard, Chen Guo only had one thought: His hand speed was very slow.
Hand speed, which was the number of operations per unit of time, was generally measured in minutes, abbreviated as APM. Glory wasn't a strategy game. Players were only controlling a single unit, but using skills was complicated and required precise movements. As a result, hand speed was very important.
A player with high APM would be able to make moves faster and more precise. The strength and timing of each key press would directly affect the range of the character's movements in the game. This would allow the character to have more variety in battle. However, the good and bad of these changes had to be differentiated. Some people just wanted to make their APM look better, so they kept playing. Those who could really make every move with purpose and get a high APM were all top players at the professional level.
An APM of 200 was a publicly recognized dividing line in the Glory scene. Normal players who had an APM of 200 or more were just messing around. Even pro players who wanted to reach a APM of 200 or more would need a special battle environment. At the very least, the opponent couldn't be too weak and needed to reach a APM of 200 or more.
For normal players, 70% of them had a APM of 80 to 120. 25% were terrible players who couldn't even reach 80. The other 5% were players who could surpass 120 and continuously aim for 200. It was said that among the experts among normal players, there was no lack of pro players who could reach this APM of 200.
Chen Guo's APM hovered around 120, but because most of the time, it would be around 120, Chen Guo firmly believed that she belonged in that 5% and was an expert player.
But the current Ye Xiu, in Chen Guo's eyes, didn't even need to doubt him. He was definitely a crippled player who hadn't even reached 80. Noticing this, Chen Guo suddenly realized that the rhythmic sound of the keyboard playing had disappeared. Right now, she was listening to a terrible player who was playing slowly, but clearly.
"Could it be that I fell asleep … …" Chen Guo shook her head. She wanted to hear the feeling of sleep again, but she couldn't recall it. Right now, she was paying attention to this terrible player's hands and the pair of hands that were so beautiful that it made people jealous.
Chen Guo was so focused on the pair of hands that she forgot to look at the screen. Not long after, Ye Xiu's hands stopped moving. Chen Guo finally reacted. Looking at the screen, her eyes immediately widened: "Midnight Phantom Cat?"
When she said this, the Midnight Phantom Cat had already fallen from the sky and landed on the ground, dropping a bunch of items.
At the same time, Chen Guo saw a system announcement flash across the screen: Server 10, Midnight Phantom Cat First Kill: Lord Grim.
"F * ck!!" Chen Guo slapped Ye Xiu's shoulder: "You've got some skill!" It didn't matter if he was terrible or not, he was still able to get the First Kill. This was a result that Chen Guo had never achieved before.
Ye Xiu was focused on looking at the dropped items. He was completely unprepared for the slap and almost ate the cigarette butt in his mouth. In the end, he saw a string of silver ash fall onto the keyboard. Chen Guo, who was peeking at Ye Xiu, also leaned over. Seeing this scene, she forgot about the First Kill of the Hidden Boss. She immediately pulled out Ye Xiu's headphones and roared in his ear: "Who allowed you to smoke here?"
"Ah?" Ye Xiu was still biting the cigarette butt in his mouth. He didn't understand what Chen Guo meant.
"Didn't you see that no smoking is allowed?" Chen Guo pointed at the wall.
Ye Xiu turned his head and carefully looked at the sign on the wall: "Are you kidding? The Internet cafe doesn't allow smoking? "
"This is the non-smoking area. Go to the other area to smoke." Chen Guo pointed at the other corner of the Internet cafe.
"Then let's go over," Ye Xiu said.
"I'm not going. The smell of smoke gives me a headache," Chen Guo said.
"Then what should we do?" Ye Xiu looked like he was in a difficult position.
"Will you die if you smoke one less cigarette?" Chen Guo was angry.
"No, but I'll have a headache," Ye Xiu said.
"You, you, you …" Chen Guo realized that she was starting to understand this Ye Xiu. He could casually accept living conditions like the storage room, but that didn't mean that he was easy to deal with.
"I'll go to the smoking area myself. Boss, you can go rest," Ye Xiu said.
"Wait, you still haven't told me how you got the First Clear!" Chen Guo said.
"It's nothing. My team all died and the boss didn't have much health left. I picked up a ready-made one." Ye Xiu said casually.
"There's such a good thing." Chen Guo's voice carried a hint of envy. She didn't care about the First Clear rewards for this kind of low-level hidden boss. At most, it would give some experience and money. It wouldn't give any good equipment, but this record would forever remain on the leaderboards. It would become a legend in the server. Many players liked this feeling. For most normal players, they only had the chance to get on the leaderboards during the beginner period. In the later stages of the game, the difficulty of the dungeon would increase. Whether it was the First Clear of a dungeon or a hidden boss, it would require a high level team. In the Heavenly Domain, even such a high level team wouldn't have a chance. The records there were all held by professional teams in the pro circle.
