The Setting Sun saw that Ye Ci didn't reply, and thought that she was being defensive, so he smiled and said, "I'm just asking. If you don't want to answer, it's fine."
Ye Ci looked at him and knew that he had misunderstood her silence. However, she didn't explain and just nodded.
"Then can I know your name in the foreign land?" The Setting Sun saw that Ye Ci didn't refuse and answered honestly, so he carefully asked another question.
This was difficult for Ye Ci. For her, it was a memory from a long time ago. Even if she was originally doing well in the other side, that didn't mean that she remembered everything that happened back then. She tilted her head and thought carefully for a while, then looked at The Setting Sun's focused eyes and answered with uncertainty, "I think ….. Sea Lantern ….."
Her voice wasn't loud, so The Setting Sun didn't hear her uncertain ending. However, just hearing this name made him unable to suppress the excitement in his heart. It turned out that he had also played Outland before, and Sea Lantern was one of the few people he knew in Outland.
She was a mage with sharp skills and excellent positioning. Although she was still a bit immature in some areas, no one could deny that Sea Lantern was one of the top mages in Outland.
The Setting Sun had already known from Zero Arsenic that Ye Ci was Sea Lantern, but he had always been suspicious.
First of all, although Sea Lantern's skills were good, she was still a bit immature and immature. She wasn't as skilled as Gongzi You in front of him. Secondly, Sea Lantern was known to be difficult to deal with in Outland. She was also a prick, cold, and selfish person. This was a far cry from the Gongzi You that everyone talked about.
As a cautious guild leader, although there was a lot of evidence in front of him that Ye Ci was the famous Sea Lantern, The Setting Sun still wanted to confirm it.
His eyes flashed with surprise, but he quickly suppressed his emotions and smiled calmly, "I always thought that Sea Lantern wasn't young, but I didn't think that you were only the same age as Yin."
The Setting Sun's nickname for Dong Yin made Ye Ci a bit jealous, but she only pulled the corner of her mouth. She was now more and more curious about why The Setting Sun was looking for her. First, he looked for Dong Yin, and then he chatted with her about the foreign land for so long. Could it be that the president wanted to treat the wise with respect, and look for her, a non-staff member, to bicker with her?
However, she wasn't in a hurry.
In the past ten years, Ye Ci had learned one thing.
When negotiating with the other party, don't be in a hurry to open your mouth. You must strike after the other party has made the first move. The more stable you are, the more likely it is for the other party to lose their aim.
Thus, Ye Ci only smiled and leaned back in her chair, looking at The Setting Sun. She didn't say another word.
Her silence made The Setting Sun more or less passive. He knew that Ye Ci was only eighteen years old this year. At such an immature age, her mind was easy to grasp. As long as he praised her or gave her some benefits, she would quickly become complacent. However, this Gongzi You in front of him was so deep that he couldn't see through her.
She wasn't as simple as Dong Yin and Yi Cang, and she wasn't as impulsive as Liu Chang. Her existence was like a pool of calm water, silent and unmoving. No matter what he did, it was as if it would be swallowed up by her silence.
Just like now. He had talked about so many things about the Otherworld, and praised her directly or indirectly, but she didn't move at all. She only looked at him quietly, as if none of it had anything to do with her.
In the end, The Setting Sun became impatient. His original intention was to make Ye Ci happy, and then get closer to him. Then, he would be able to give her some tasks. That way, not only would she stay in the guild, but she would also feel that he was important to her, and she would follow the guild wholeheartedly.
However, he didn't expect that Ye Ci would just smile silently. She didn't say anything, and only looked at him quietly. This kind of conversation without any interaction became a kind of lame play that he put on himself.
Looking at the time, Ye Ci realized that she had wasted almost an hour here. She couldn't help but yawn. The Setting Sun was really patient. Did he have to set up a ladder for her before he could get off the donkey? But sorry, Ye Ci didn't like to be a good person, and she didn't want to take this ladder.
Ye Ci stood up, "Guild Master, my friend asked me to help clear a small dungeon. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
After saying that, Ye Ci didn't want to waste any more words with The Setting Sun. She turned around to leave. Seeing this, The Setting Sun couldn't care less. He quickly said, "Gongzi, there's something else. Please don't worry."
"What's the matter? Are you talking about the Otherworld? "Ye Ci turned her head, and there was a hint of mockery in her eyes.
"No." The Setting Sun sighed helplessly. This little girl was really powerful. She forced him into such a passive position, "No, the guild wants to promote you to be the Deputy Minister of the United Front Department." Saying that, he sent a trade request to Ye Ci. There was a virtual account there, "This account is your salary. 10,000 dollars a month. Of course, there will be other commissions. You only need to help the guild clear dungeons. As long as you can get into the First Five or clear the dungeon, the money will definitely be a lot …"
For an 18-year-old girl, ten thousand yuan was a huge sum of money, not to mention that there were other commissions. The Setting Sun's intention was very obvious.
Buying people's hearts? Ye Ci narrowed her eyes slightly.
She was afraid that after she agreed, Steel-Blooded Battle Spear would post on the forums that she was Ocean's Lantern. Ocean's Lantern wasn't an absolute top player in the Otherworld, but she was the only female in the Top Ten Experts. Naturally, she had a lot of fame. If Blade of Steel released this news, it was just to increase the guild's popularity and pull up the rankings. Moreover, Ocean's Lantern had taken so many First Clears. The benefits …
Those who didn't understand were fools.
The Setting Sun's offer was very generous. Unfortunately, Ye Ci wasn't tempted at all. The thing she hated the most in her life was being used. Moreover, she never thought that she would stay in Blade of Steel for the rest of her life. Why would she sell herself for such a small profit?
Was Gongzi You only worth so little money?
Ye Ci rejected The Setting Sun's offer without hesitation. She smiled faintly, "I don't like being an official. Forget about the salary. I play games for fun. I don't care about money. " Then, she looked at The Setting Sun's awkward expression and said, "If the guild needs it, I'll do my best."
Since Ye Ci had put it this way, The Setting Sun didn't hold back anymore, "Then tomorrow, lead a team to fight the Automaton Formation." Then, he added, "You'll be in charge."
Ye Ci's eyes flashed. She nodded and said half-jokingly, "I'll do my best, Guild Leader."
Then, she stopped talking to The Setting Sun and left the meeting room. As soon as she left, Zero Arsenic entered the meeting room. He looked at The Setting Sun and asked, "How did it go?"
The Setting Sun frowned and sighed, "I'm wondering how she's only 18 years old. She's so experienced that she can't take advantage of anyone. " Then, he looked at Zero Arsenic's raised eyebrows and sighed again. He was slightly frustrated, "She refused to be a Battle Commander, but she didn't refuse to lead a dungeon."
"About Otherworld …" Zero Arsenic frowned.
"She didn't speak at all. I was the only one talking to myself. She was like a monkey!"
Zero Arsenic said as he played the recording in the meeting room. He listened to it and sighed, "Her voice is so muffled. There's no way we can use this for publicity. It seems that using the name of Sea Lantern to promote the guild won't work. "
The Setting Sun smiled bitterly, "Forget it. Don't use these things to promote the guild. It's flashy but useless. As long as we can beat the guild's progress, we'll have all the fame we want."
Ye Ci more or less guessed that The Setting Sun wanted to use her. However, she didn't expect that they would even prepare a recording.
The next day, at six o 'clock in the evening, Ye Ci went online on time and led the assembled team one into the Mech Formation. Although the second team had already cleared the dungeon, the first team knew that the outstanding Huntress would be the commander this time. However, they were still somewhat repulsed by her. It was human nature to be distant from one another. This could be seen from their distant attitude towards Ye Ci.
Ye Ci didn't mind. She was only responsible for leading them through the dungeon. She didn't intend to cultivate any camaraderie with them.
Ye Ci wasn't a stranger to commanding. She had once commanded a team. However, due to personal reasons, she didn't even have a guild. How could she command again?
She hadn't used the microphone for many years, so she was a little nervous at first.
However, she quickly recovered. Ye Ci's commanding style was that she didn't talk nonsense. She would at most say what she wanted to do twice. Whether they could beat the enemy depended on their cooperation. Therefore, in order to keep up with her command, not only did they have to be highly focused, they also had to have a high degree of cooperation with the whole team.
Because the first team was familiar with the original commanding style, they couldn't get used to Ye Ci's command. In addition, they were already resistant to Ye Ci, so their cooperation was greatly reduced. When they were fighting the Elite Guards, they actually panicked. When it used its ultimate skill, it actually killed three tanks. The fourth and fifth tanks couldn't keep up. The healers lost their aim. The DPS 'aggro went OT. In just a few seconds, a bunch of people were dead.
Suddenly, the team was filled with complaints, complaints, and curses. They couldn't wait to kill Ye Ci to vent their anger …
