Blade Runner casually walked into the leader's meeting room. By then, there were already four people seated around the table. One of them was his brother, Bladeless Swordsman, and the other three sat on the other side of the table. Their IDs were One Blade, One Sword, and Not a Scaredy Cat.
After all, Jiang Hu was a top guild, and they had good discipline. In any case, none of the members sat there and munched on potato chips. However, they did not just sit there. Each of them held a bottle of drink, and they would occasionally take a sip.
The snacks and drinks in Thriller Paradise were purely to satisfy one's cravings. They did not have any buff effect and could not recover one's Life Points or Stamina Points. They would not allow the players to skip a meal in real life. However, the sales of these products in the game were surprisingly good. Be it professional players, RMB players who did not lack money, or normal casual players, they would buy some to try.
Were the virtual snacks sold by Dream Company really that attractive? The answer was yes. The products they launched were mainly divided into three types. The first type was the most popular or the most popular products, such as potato chips, cola, cigarettes, etc. The second type was more high-end products that were expensive in real life, such as expensive medicinal herbs, chocolate, alcoholic drinks, etc. The third type … was the novelty products that didn't exist in real life, such as "Gala Crocodile Jerky" and "Rainbow Juice" that only appeared in gourmet comics, as well as the game's original snacks that had horror elements, such as "Eyeball Skewers" and "Mummy Bandage Zongzi" …
Even though the open beta was not that long ago, and the prices of these products were not that expensive, the profit Thriller Paradise made from them was close to the profit of other consumables like ammo, medicine, batteries, and so on. This business became a big way for the system to earn Game Coins from the players.
"Brother Xiao is not here yet?" Blade Runner asked as he sat down. His eyes scanned the faces of the three people across the table. They were all members of Jiang Hu, but they were not familiar with Blade Runner. Out of politeness, Childe Jian nodded slightly at them as a greeting.
Bladeless Swordsman replied, "Most likely, he's busy with the thing that you mentioned earlier."
"Is it that troublesome?" Blade Runner asked.
"Ha … You're the one who put the things aside, and now you're the one who leaves everything to others." Bladeless Swordsman laughed. "We've been busy with a lot of things. Do you think it's that easy to train a workmanship mastery? Other than [Order], which other guild would be able to summon several players of each specialization just by shouting? "
Blade Runner shrugged. "Well, I've never practiced it before, so I don't know how difficult it is."
While they were talking, the door to the conference room opened again. A man about 1.85 meters tall with a calm and resolute face walked in.
[Laughing at the Heavens], one of the three bosses of Jianghu studio. At the same time, he was also the leader of Jianghu.
Suppose a group of people were stranded on a deserted island, trapped deep in the mountains, or trapped in an unknown and dangerous space. At first, they would be at a loss. At this time, Laughing At The Heavens would undoubtedly be the one they could rely on. He would be the one who would be expected to stand up and do something.
To put it simply, this was the temperament of a leader. To put it simply, this person looked reliable.
In reality, Laughing At The Heavens, Bladeless Swordsman, and Blade Runner were already considered young entrepreneurs. In the game world, they were also influential figures among the professional players. However, if one were to say who could represent Jianghu studio, it would be Laughing At The Heavens.
In terms of gaming ability, Laughing Blade and Blade were on par. In the past, in other virtual reality games, they would naturally spar with each other. There had always been wins and losses between them. Disregarding the profession and equipment in the game, there was no obvious difference between the three of them.
However, in terms of managing the company, Bladeless Swordsman and Childe Jian were far from each other. The important decisions and future development of the studio had been made by Laughing At The Heavens from the very beginning. For a company like theirs that had risen from the ground up, such a wise decision maker was the cornerstone of their success.
"Hmm … You're all here, right?" Laughing At The Heavens walked to the head of the table and sat down. His eyes scanned Bladeless Swordsman and Blade Runner on his right before turning to the three on his left. "You've all met each other, right?"
"Ah, we've chatted for a while," Bladeless Swordsman replied. "But Childe Jian has just arrived, so why don't you introduce him?"
Laughing At The Heavens then raised his right arm to face the three on his left. "Childe Jian, Blade Runner."
"I've heard so much about you!" One Blade and One Sword finally had the chance to meet an expert. While they were excited, they were still rather reserved.
Scaredy Cat, who was standing beside them, pouted and did not say anything.
"Hehe … There's no need to be so polite," Blade Runner replied with a smile.
Laughing At The Heavens then turned to Blade Runner and said, "Even though One Blade and One Sword are not professional players, their online time is quite consistent. I think they have quite the potential …" He paused. "Haven't you been complaining about not being able to find suitable teammates in Killing Game? How about they follow you in the future? "
"Sure." Flashes of Sword agreed easily. He was a man who knew how to conduct himself. At a moment like this, he could either reject or agree to it. If he acted like he was a prostitute and gave his answer after much deliberation, it would have put One Blade and One Sword in a difficult position.
"We're all in the same guild, and there's even EXP bonus. I couldn't ask for more," Blade Runner said.
"Haha, then we'll be in your care in the future, Childe Jian." One Blade and One Sword were also overjoyed. To them, it was already good enough that they were able to mingle in a famous and reputable guild like World of Martial Arts. When their guild leader said that they had potential, it was enough for them to gloat for quite some time. Now that they were assigned to team up with Blade Runner, it was practically a godsend. They were both players who used melee weapons, and to be able to observe the battle of a top player like Blade Runner, it would be hard for their skills not to improve.
"Other than that, this is Not a Scaredy Cat …" Laughing At The Heavens continued the introduction. "She is an expert recommended by One Blade and One Sword. She just joined the guild today, and I wish for you to meet her …"
When Bladeless and Childe Jian heard that, their expressions shifted slightly. They were both wondering what the meaning of 'meet her' was. Is she your girlfriend or relative, so you brought her here for us to meet? Based on the way you're introducing her, that doesn't seem to be the case. In other words … even though this beauty is not an employee of our studio, she is a very capable casual player that we must meet?
"Hello," Not a Scaredy Cat said casually. When she met a stranger in the script, she would act cute, but at that moment, it was gone. In its place, she was a tough woman.
Since Bladeless had joined earlier, he had already greeted her. This was the first time that Childe Jian had spoken to Not a Scaredy Cat, so he replied, "Hello." He thought to himself, I've never seen her before, and I've never heard of a professional player who uses the nickname 'Not a Scaredy Cat', but Brother Laughing seems to value her a lot … Interesting.
"Not a Scaredy Cat, you can queue up with Bladeless in the future. Try to stay online at a steady pace and level up faster. After you reach Level 30, I wish to assign you to a specialized team to tackle the Team Survival Mode on Nightmare difficulty, "Laughing At The Heavens said. "Other than that, from Level 30 to Level 39, there are three Sentry Battles before the Ranking Match. I hope you can join your teammates in that. I'll make the necessary arrangements."
…
At the same time, in Underworld Frontline's meeting room.
Feng Bujue walked into the meeting room and saw Passing Rain holding her cheeks with her hands. She looked listless as she observed the boring scene around her. Laughing Soul was tossing popcorn at Xiao Tan from across the table. She was trying to get more popcorn on Xiao Tan's hair.
"You've been waiting for me?" Feng Bujue asked. They were already in the game in sleeping mode.
"Actually, we've only been waiting for ten minutes," Passing Rain said.
Feng Bujue turned to look at the number of popcorn on Xiao Tan's head. "I'm curious. If I came any later, what would have happened to this trick of using popcorn to pass the time?"
"Perhaps she would have asked me to open my mouth to receive it," Xiao Tan replied.
"I'm happy that you've finally found a friend whose mental age is close to yours." Feng Bujue smiled.
"Nonsense! I'm much more mature than him! "Laughing Soul grumbled.
"Of course, anyone who went to primary school knows that girls mature early," Feng Bujue said as he sat down at the table.
Laughing Soul glanced at this sharp-tongued guild leader and stuck out her tongue to make a face.
"I hear you're going to be on TV?" Passing Rain asked.
"Ah … So, you've already done the promotion …" Feng Bujue admitted it. He turned to Xiao Tan. "Hmm? By the way, how's your left hand? Did the effect of breaking the bottle of Slowing Sand show up? "
"I'm fine," Xiao Tan replied. He raised his hand. "There's nothing wrong. I even finished two scenarios after work, and I didn't feel any effect. Perhaps after I finished the Death Quiz scenario, the effect disappeared."
"The negative effect in the scenario won't be carried back to the log-in lobby," Laughing Soul said. "Guild leader, aren't you familiar with the game's manual? Why are you so conflicted about this? "
"Because I think there's something wrong with the scenario," Feng Bujue said, but he did not say it out loud.
"As long as there's nothing wrong." Every time, it was Passing Rain who brought the topic back on track. If she was not there, who knew how long this group of people would continue to talk nonsense. "We've been through a few more scenarios. Let's discuss our levels and status again before we depart."
