Thank you, Red Bean Ni, Half-tone, Happiness, Little Path Online, Dragon Witch, Ghost Qi Yeran's gift ~ ~ Hug ~ ~ Ye Ci did not reject Yi Cang in the end.
Firstly, she did not have the heart to pour cold water on Yi Cang's excitement. Secondly, she was still in the Steel-Blooded Battle Spear. The guild leader had organized an event, so it would be inappropriate for her to say no. Thirdly … and most importantly, she wanted to know what The Setting Sun was selling.
On the second day, Ye Ci did not have much contact with The Setting Sun. The two only met at the entrance of the designated restaurant.
He Xiao looked like he had something urgent to attend to, but when he saw Ye Ci, he still put on a warm smile, "Oh, it's you, gongzi. Hurry up, they're all in a private room on the third floor. I have something to do, so I'll be back in a bit."
As he spoke, he hurriedly asked a smiling man who had escorted him downstairs to bring Ye Ci upstairs. He then quickly walked to a high-end car parked by the roadside, opened the door, and sped away.
Ye Ci glanced at the car. Although she could not accurately estimate its price, she could guess that it was at least a few million based on the number plate. No wonder Blade of Steel could rise so quickly. It turned out that there was someone behind He Xiao who had invested in it.
"Let's go up." The man standing at the side reminded Ye Ci with a smile.
Ye Ci nodded and followed him upstairs.
The man smiled as he walked, "I'm Zero Arsenic, the vice leader of the guild."
When Ye Ci heard that it was Zero Arsenic, she could not help but raise her head and look at the man a few more times. So he was Zero Arsenic.
Although the guild leader of Blade of Steel was The Setting Sun, according to her experience in her previous life, this man was the real brain of Blade of Steel. He was a scheming person, and the reason why Steel-Blooded Battle Spear was so popular was because of him.
"Hello." Ye Ci nodded and greeted her in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. She didn't seem to be very enthusiastic either.
Zero Arsenic was a little surprised. Most of the members were very enthusiastic when they saw him, but this person was a little special.
"You must be Gongzi You." Ye Ci was not a talkative person, and Zero Arsenic did not want the atmosphere to be awkward, so as the two of them climbed the stairs, Zero Arsenic took the initiative to speak.
"Yes."
"When I first saw your name, I thought you were a man." As Zero Arsenic spoke, his eyes never left Ye Ci's face. He wanted to carefully observe her expression. However, he was a little disappointed. Ye Ci's face was still calm and emotionless. There was no excitement or desire to speak. Even her answers to him were dull and dull.
"The system is random."
Today, inviting Ye Ci was not The Setting Sun's idea, but Zero Arsenic's.
This Gongzi You's name was in both First Clears, so Zero Arsenic paid extra attention to her. Although Peacock Blue guaranteed that this equipment's GS was only 85, and that the Icy Cave's clear was completely dependent on a good party, he still couldn't let it go.
Zero Arsenic immediately contacted Timely Rain and Pickled Pepper Phoenix Claw after Ye Ci claimed the First Clear of the Cruel Pit yesterday. The two of them immediately showered Ye Ci with praises for the Huntress' control and commanding skills. She was completely different from Peacock Blue's description.
This made Zero Arsenic even more curious about this Gongzi You.
As the saying goes, money makes the world go round.
As the saying goes, a problem that can be solved with money is not a problem at all.
Thus, yesterday evening, he paid money to investigate Gongzi You's past. The results were amazing. He really didn't expect this pale-looking girl to be one of the top ten experts in the world's most popular game, "Otherworld Online".
It seemed that these two First Clears were not accidental. Maybe … Zero Arsenic couldn't help but think that the First Clears were the result of this Huntress.
Zero Arsenic looked at Ye Ci again and remembered something Timely Rain said, "She's so familiar with the dungeon that it's like it's her backyard. Her skills are perfect. I never knew what kind of person was good in the true sense of the word, but after going through the dungeon with her, I finally understood."
Ye Ci turned her face and looked at Zero Arsenic. What's wrong with this man? He keeps looking at me with those strange eyes.
Just as they arrived at the door of the private room, Zero Arsenic hurriedly led Ye Ci in. There were more than ten tables set up in the room, and many people were sitting. Zero Arsenic introduced them from the side. It turned out that these were the main members of Blade of Steel. Their guild stronghold was also in the city where Ye Ci was located. This gathering was to promote the progress of the Icy Wetlands.
However, unexpectedly, Peacock Blue was not in the main members' gathering this time. This made Ye Ci slightly disappointed. She originally wanted to see Peacock Blue's shrewish look.
As soon as Ye Ci sat down, someone immediately came up to toast her. Fortunately, they were all blocked by Zero Arsenic. However, she could still feel the excitement of these main players from yesterday's First Clears and their great hope for the progress of the Icy Wetlands.
"How do you feel about these two First Clears? Was it difficult? " After three rounds of drinks and half full of food, Zero Arsenic, who was sitting next to Ye Ci, suddenly asked with a smile.
"As long as everyone cooperates well, it's only a matter of time before we clear the dungeon." Ye Ci glanced at Zero Arsenic and avoided answering his question directly.
This answer made Zero Arsenic stop asking. He just laughed and chatted with Ye Ci for a while. Then, he took out a bank card and placed it in front of Ye Ci: "Gongzi You, this is fifty thousand yuan. It's your reward for the First Clear of the Cruel Dungeon."
Ye Ci looked at the card and sneered. She had guessed correctly.
It seemed that after her two First Clears, Zero Arsenic was somewhat suspicious of the First Clears that she had done anonymously and wanted to rope her in. For example, a new guild like Blade of Steel couldn't be compared to a veteran guild that had been established for more than ten years. They didn't have many elites, experience, or experts. For a guild like this to be able to survive until now, it could only rely on one thing — money.
However, relying on money wasn't a long-term solution. If they wanted to become stronger, they would have to rope in a few experts. Not to mention anything else, the celebrity effect was a must.
Although in her previous life, Ye Ci felt sorry for The Setting Sun, which led to her joining Blade of Steel, this didn't mean that she planned to stay here forever. After all, serving a guild with all her heart was too difficult. Moreover, she was a person who was used to being alone. Being bound to a guild like this was a huge test.
However, if she directly rejected Zero Arsenic, she was afraid that she would lose face. Zero Arsenic would also lose face. After all, he was the Vice Guild Leader.
Thus, Ye Ci smiled slightly. "I like to be a point hog. Let's follow Peacock Blue's promise and exchange 200 DKP for me."
Zero Arsenic paused for a moment, but he quickly covered it up with a smile. He looked at Ye Ci's determined gaze and didn't continue to insist. This was because he knew that if he insisted, the result would be the same. It might even make both sides unhappy. It was better to stop now and wait for the next opportunity.
The meal ended peacefully on the surface, but everyone had their own ulterior motives.
Zero Arsenic invited Ye Ci to sing karaoke, but Ye Ci politely declined. She took a taxi and went home.
After logging into the game and doing her daily quests, Ye Ci went straight to the Auction House.
The few pieces of equipment that no one wanted from the Cruel Dungeon yesterday had all been sold. After deducting the Auction House's handling fee, she had earned nearly 2000 gold. Ye Ci sent 400 gold to each of the four people. Then she began to search for other auction items that she was interested in.
Suddenly, a formula for a fine iron arrow flashed into her eyes. Although every Hunter and Ranger wanted to make their own arrows and save a lot of money, not everyone would be able to come across the Beginner Arrow Crafting Skill Book, which was a scammy skill book.
This Fine Iron Arrow Recipe had been put up for sale for almost 24 hours and no one was interested in it. At least, not many people knew how to craft arrows.
The recipe only cost 10 gold. Ye Ci immediately bought it and learned it. Her proficiency in Bronze Arrows was no longer increasing, so she needed a better recipe to increase her proficiency. Who would have thought that she would actually get such a recipe today.
In a corner of Red Lake City, Ye Ci was excitedly making arrows when she suddenly received a private message.
"Ye Ci, are you there?"
There was no one else who would call her that, other than Flutter's Sway. At least, that was the case at the moment.
"I'm here. What's up?"
"Are you busy right now?"
"I'm making arrows."
"Then I won't disturb you." Flutter's Sway said and was about to hang up.
Ye Ci hurriedly stopped her, "Just say what you want to say." Flutter's Sway was a good person, but she was too considerate of others. Even if she had an urgent matter, she would still consider other people's problems first. If other people were in trouble, she wouldn't want to disturb them.
But how could there be nothing in the game? Even if she found a place to sleep, wouldn't there still be something going on?
Flutter's Sway hesitated for a moment before saying, "Our guild is fighting the Wild Boar King in the Plains of Despair, but we keep getting wiped out. Can you come over and help?"
The Wild Boar King in the Plains of Despair? Ye Ci originally wanted to fight it herself, but she didn't expect World Conqueror to be so agile and had already taken the initiative to fight it before her.
The Wild Boar King and Sandstorm Scorpion were both lvl 15 World Bosses, and their difficulty levels were about the same.
However, there were 3 cities scattered around the Plains of Despair, and there were many players and guilds going in and out of them. It was unlike Sandstorm Scorpion, which was hidden in the middle of nowhere in the desert, where one might not even see a single person for half a month. The spawn point of the Wild Boar King had been a chaotic place ever since Fate's server was launched.
Flutter's Sway was so hesitant that it wasn't because they couldn't kill the Wild Boar King, but because someone else had snatched it away from them. (In Fate, the ownership of an Open World Boss belonged to the last player or the party that killed it.)
Since Flutter's Sway was her friend, and she had already asked, how could she not go?
Ye Ci agreed without hesitation, and told them to hold on for a while longer. She would be there in half an hour at most. She then rode her little red horse and rushed towards the teleportation NPC.
The teleportation NPC of Fate was very responsible. He quickly sent Ye Ci to Crimson Sand City, which was the closest city to the Plains of Despair. Ye Ci then ran towards the spawn point of the Wild Boar King without stopping. She didn't forget to ask as she ran, "Susu, you didn't tell Qin Churuo that Gongzi You is Ye Ci, right?"
"No, if I did, he would come looking for you to join World Conqueror every day." Flutter's Sway knew Ye Ci's personality, so she naturally wouldn't tell her. "But you have to hurry, we can't hold on for much longer."
Ye Ci immediately ran even faster after hearing that …
