"Okay, I'll listen to you." Water Fairy didn't ask for details. Since Lu Li said it was okay, then it shouldn't be a problem. This guy wouldn't trick her. But didn't he feel tired holding her hand like this? From start to finish, she could feel Lu Li's tension.
Well, Water Fairy didn't relax either. After all, there were almost no people who dared to hold her hand.
When Water Fairy was in school, there was once a person who lost a bet with a bad friend and was forced to confess to Water Fairy. That person had done a lot of mental preparation to stop Water Fairy, who was still a loli at the time. Then, when he was asked, the poor child forgot what he was going to say.
Actually, at that time, Water Fairy, although she was in university, she was really only 16 years old. She also hoped to encounter what people called love.
Unfortunately, there weren't many people who dared to look her in the eyes. Those who dared to say a dirty word in front of her felt that it was blasphemy, let alone something like holding hands.
And those who were willing to give up their lives for beauty were even more miserable. Chairman Shen might have all kinds of flaws, but he treasured his daughter very much. Anyone who coveted his daughter would definitely be punished.
"How's your Gouge practice going?" Lu Li's mind was very blank. He really couldn't find a topic to talk about, so he only wanted to talk about the game.
"Hmm …" Water Fairy thought for a moment and then said, "A little more than 80%."
How much Skill Completion did she even need to think about it? Lu Li didn't really understand, so he continued to say, "It really is a little low. The benefits of learning Enhanced skills now aren't high. Why don't we go to the arena and let me see where your problem is?"
"Sure," Water Fairy said with a smile.
Gouge was a skill that was useful against monsters, but monsters had limited intelligence. Bosses with higher intelligence basically wouldn't be affected by control skills, so the arena became the best place to test out skills.
Holding Water Fairy's soft little hand, Lu Li brought her to the arena's office hall to register a team.
It wouldn't be appropriate to continue holding hands at this time.
Therefore, he could only regretfully let go of Water Fairy's hand — he needed both hands to line up, and Water Fairy did not wait for Lu Li to continue holding her hand. Instead, she reservedly took a step away. No matter how talented she was, she was still a girl.
It wasn't common for two Thieves to form a team and fight in the arena. The two of them had never fought together before, so this new team started from Level 0.
Similar to the structure of a guild, the Arena Battle Team was also a permanent and stable group of players. A team had its own name and logo, but it was still different from a guild. The arena matches were divided into three categories: 2v2, 3v3, and 5v5, corresponding to the three sizes of teams.
Unlike Guilds, players could join multiple battle teams at the same time. However, they could only join one battle team of the same type.
For example, Lu Li could not join two 2v2 battle teams at the same time, but he could be a member of another 3v3 battle team and a 5v5 battle team. If he joined another 2v2 battle team with another person in the future, then the battle team he and Water Fairy formed would immediately be disbanded.
The process of forming an Arena Battle Team was the same as creating a guild. First, they needed to buy a battle team registration form from the arena's advertising staff.
The content of the registration included information about the two people's class level, and some other miscellaneous things. Fortunately, it wasn't considered private, so the player's bank account password wasn't asked.
From Lu Li's point of view, this registration form was mainly for scamming money. A thin piece of paper filled with meaningless information cost a full 100 gold coins.
This made Lu Li, who was used to living a hard life, feel his heart ache.
But in front of a girl that he liked, even if his heart ached, he still had to act calm.
"Do you want to give it a name?" Lu Li asked. If it was his own battle team, he might have just typed in a random string of numbers. But this was related to Water Fairy, so he didn't want to be careless.
"I'll do it." Water Fairy applied for permission to operate the team.
Lu Li obediently gave up the permission to name the team. He didn't ask her what name she wanted. Let her be. Even if she called it "Lu Li the Big Bad Guy", he would still be able to accept it.
Cheating couple!
Lu Li was shocked. He doubted his own eyes, but after confirming it again and again, he still felt that he didn't see wrong the three words on the battle team name.
"If my sister guessed wrong, this isn't a compliment." Lu Li couldn't doubt his own eyes. He could only doubt his own lack of knowledge. Could it be that there was a deeper meaning to this word?
"They call us cheating couple all day long. Now we'll use this name to torture them." Water Fairy giggled.
Why did he feel like he was resigned to his fate?
Lu Li felt tired. He didn't want to dwell on this. The girl didn't even care, so if he continued to complain, he would seem too low. He didn't want a strong position, but at least he didn't want to be inferior.
Just like that, the name was confirmed. 2v2 Arena Team Two. Team name: Cheating couple!
It felt like the whole zoo!
The two signed their names and handed the team registration form to the arena promoter. Next, they needed to choose a team flag. This was very similar to the design process of a guild emblem. The main difference was that they finally didn't need to pay for the design of the team flag.
As long as they didn't ask Lu Li for money, everything else was fine.
Since the team name was chosen by Water Fairy, there was no need for Lu Li to worry about the flag. Water Fairy chose the Scarlet Crusade's flag. Cheating couple was the Scarlet Crusade, and it was very fitting. Today, they were going to fight against Cheating couple.
Lu Li was the team leader. He needed to call out the PVP arena interface to queue up. The two star players in the game had to start from the beginner rank of 0.
The rank reflected the performance of your team in the arena. The higher the rank, the stronger the team. After entering the arena queue, the team allocation system would find a suitable opponent based on the rank of your team.
Every time the team won a match, their rank would rise. Otherwise, it would fall.
At the end of a week, the team's rank would be converted into the arena points that the team had earned that week. Teams needed to participate in at least ten matches every week to earn arena points, and players had to reach at least 30% of their team's matches every week to earn points.
Similar to the Battlefield, the arena was also a dungeon-style battle platform for players to participate in.
There were many arena maps open at the moment, but there were only three mainstream ones: the Trial Arena in Nagrand, the Ring of Blood in Blade Peak, and the newly added Ruins of Lordaeron. They were designed in different styles, and each had their own unique elements that could bring different battle experiences to the players.
Due to the large number of players, they did not have to wait too long in the arena queue. The two soon received the notification that they had successfully queued up. After confirming their entry, they changed the map and appeared in the arena.
Like the Arathi Basin and the Warsong Canyon Battlefield, before the battle began, the two teams would be placed in separate waiting areas.
After entering the arena, the buffs and magical items on Lu Li and Water Fairy would be removed. This was to prevent players from using buffs and items made by other players outside of the team.
Both of their HP and energy were set to full.
What was worse was that the debuffs on the players would be retained. This was to prevent players from using the arena to remove the debuffs on them. Fortunately, Lu Li and Water Fairy did not have debuffs on them.
"Are we just testing our skills, or are we going to seriously fight for the rankings?" Lu Li asked.
It was not that he did not have his own ideas, but he felt that he should respect the other party's opinion. Recently, Lu Xin had been teaching her brother how to chase girls, and she emphasized this point. Lu Li was too domineering in real life (This was mainly how Lu Xin felt. She felt that her brother had to care about everything, and it was annoying). If you did not want a girl to hate you, it was best to respect the other party's opinion.
That was why Lu Li had asked Water Fairy to name the team. It was an unpleasant attempt.
"Of course we're going to seriously fight." Water Fairy was still studying some of the arena's rules. She had always done things this way. Her personality and experience had taught her not to be perfunctory.
Lu Li checked the opponent's information.
Brokeback Mountain?
"What does Brokeback Mountain mean?" Lu Li asked. Forgive him for not reading much, but he had only read about knowledge. He had never heard of a mountain called Brokeback Mountain in real life.
As for Brokeback Mountain in the game, there was no way that players would know about it. It was a new Outland map that was released after level 60.
"Oh, Brokeback Mountain. That was a movie. It was very influential at the time. Later on, people used this term to describe … uh, it was probably used to describe two men who had a very good relationship." Water Fairy's gaze wandered.
"Like Weilan Haifeng and Wander?" Lu Li suddenly understood.
Then he saw the goddess-like Water Fairy laugh uncontrollably. She had no idea what she had said wrong.
"Hey, you bastards, do you still want to fight?" Lu Li and Water Fairy's opponents were speechless as they watched Lu Li and Water Fairy tease each other.
The reason why they didn't take the opportunity to attack was because they were a mixed team.
These mixed teams only needed to fight a certain number of matches each week. They didn't care much about winning or losing, or rather, they didn't have the qualifications to care. Fighting a certain number of matches would give them a basic guarantee of points. Once they had enough points, they could exchange for equipment and items.
Even though they were mixed teams, they still wanted to kill this kind of lovey-dovey couple.
Lu Li and Water Fairy looked at each other and entered Stealth together.
"F * ck, it's actually two Thieves." One of the two players was a Paladin and the other was a Mage. At this moment, they regretted not attacking first. It wasn't that two Thieves countered them. They were just here to get some points. They wanted to end the battle quickly. Sometimes, they didn't even fight back and let others kill them.
If you want to kill, just kill. What's the use of Stealth? It's a waste of time.
