The King’s Avatar Chapter 385 – Taking Advantage of the Situation

Chapter 385 Taking Advantage of the Situation

They might not have suffered any losses, but they had been in a high-pressure situation.

Each of the top guilds held a meeting with their tenth server elites, telling them not to be afraid of the dangers. They were to level stubbornly, bearing the heavy pressure, and resist Lord Grims terrorist attacks. They were to struggle until the very end.

The reaction from the meeting was average. These guild leaders ignored exhaustion and nervousness from this type of pressure. They were more focused on the results. They could only say persist, persist and persist towards the difficulties met during the process.

If this wasnt a guild backed by a Club, no one would be listening. Gaming was for relaxing and having fun. Who would struggle so hard for a game? But once it involved the Clubs, the game was no longer just a game. It was a job and a reason to struggle for. Even though the encouragement from the guild leaders didnt do much, it made clear their attitude towards this. The elites could only follow the orders and brace themselves.

At Cafe Happy, Ye Xiu switched with Chen Guo after getting up. That morning, Chen Guo hadnt killed anyone, but she had gained quite a bit of experience for him. As soon as Ye Xiu switched places with her, he immediately began his operation. He killed monsters while looking around, and then quickly found a Guild 301 player, who was naturally eliminated.

Tang Rou had also gotten up around the same time as Ye Xiu. She didnt go directly to the game though. Instead, she went to change shifts at the front desk. Ye Xiu saw this and was startled. These past few days, he had been too invested in the development of the guild. He kept on feeling that something wasnt right. When he saw Tang Rou take a shift, he suddenly remembered: he hadnt taken up a shift ever since the All-Star Weekend!

Ye Xiu began to sweat madly. He glanced at Chen Guo. There was no way that Chen Guo didnt know that he hadnt worked these past few days, yet she hadnt said anything about it.

I say...... Ye Xiu opened his mouth to speak.

Hm? Chen Guo turned her head.

Who took up the night shift these past few days? Ye Xiu tried to speak vaguely about the topic, without getting to the point.

You dont need to worry. Chen Guo was much more direct.

Then I....... this......

Developing the guild and creating the team is your work! Chen Guo made a fist.

......

What? How come you dont seem happy about it? Chen Guo narrowed her eyes at Ye Xiu, who looked like he wanted to say something.

Nothing. I just thought that youve made quite the profit. Ye Xiu said.

Me? What profit? Chen Guo was puzzled.

The pay for being a cafe manager during the night shift is very reasonable. But now you want me to do this for that pay. Thats not how much Im worth! Ye Xiu said.

Bullsh*t. Youre taking advantage of me!!! After knowing Ye Xius identity, Chen Guos tolerance for Ye Xiu had clearly gone up. A lot of things had become nicer to look at. She hadnt gotten angry for quite a while.

I couldnt help but mention it. Ye Xiu said.

Chen Guo stared blankly for a bit. Her mind churned and she realized that Ye Xiu wasnt wrong. He was an expert at his speciality. As a top-tier God in Glory, he only had a normal status as a cafe manager. But if you wanted him to play Glory, he was much more valuable and his worth would naturally be very different.

Then what do you want? Chen Guo was a bit uneasy. If she had to pay Ye Xiu according to his pro status, then she would have some trouble taking the loss.

Nothing. I was just saying. Ye Xiu said.

Do you want a pay raise? Chen Guo asked unconfidently. Ye Xiu currently had the pay for a cafe manager. Even if his pay was ten times that amount, it wouldnt be enough for his status as a pro God!

No need, no need. Just food and shelter is enough. Ye Xiu nodded his head.

Chen Guo saw Ye Xiu go back to his game. She didnt know what to say. She turned her head and played the game for a bit, when she suddenly realized something. He had been the one to start the conversation. From his tone of voice, it seemed like he had felt bad about not working these past few days. Why did she feel like she had been in the wrong and that she was taking advantage of him?

Ah, another one!

Just when Chen Guo was about to say something, Ye Xiu interrupted her. She hastily went up to look at Ye Xius screen. Lord Grim was bravely charging towards a figure out in the distance. But as the distance shrunk and he saw the tag on top of the characters head, Ye Xiu was disappointed: Hes not one.....

There were 12 guilds in Thousand Waves Lake. Apart from Thousand Creations and Horse Shooter, there were 94 others. Not all of these were Ye Xius targets, because some of them hadnt participated in the conflict. There was also Blue Brook Guild and Tyrannical Ambition, who had paid for protection, so Ye Xiu wouldnt touch them. The player in front of him wasnt a target.

You wont find many if you search like this! Chen Guo said.

Thats just the way it is. Ye Xiu said as he clicked on Blue Rivers name on his friends list: Whats the situation!!

What situation!!! Blue River added three exclamation marks to express his emotions.

Did you find the whereabouts of any targets? Ye Xiu said.

What targets!!!

You know.

......

This is to your benefit, too. What are you hesitating for? Ye Xiu messaged.

Blue River was gloomy. He was right! Telling him their whereabouts would definitely benefit their guild. But why did he always have the feeling that he had to resist?

Just look at Tyrannical Ambition! Theyre so communicative!

Ye Xiu said, while controlling Lord Grim.

He hadnt asked just Blue River. He had also asked Tyrannical Ambitions Cold Night. Cold Night was much more cooperative than Blue River and called out to all of the elites in Thousand Waves Lake. When he received Ye Xius message, he first asked something that he was curious about: God, were you not on in the morning? We had at least three reports in the morning! What a pity.

Oh, then what about now? Ye Xiu asked.

Only one.

Tell me. Ill go. Ye Xiu replied.

Cold Night happily sent Ye Xiu a name and his coordinates. Ye Xiu headed towards there, while encouraging Blue River. Apart from these two guilds, there were three other guilds. However, these three guilds were in a neutral position. They couldnt gain anything from this sort of conflict, so they didnt join in. Just like how they wouldnt help the guilds pressure Lord Grim, they wouldnt help Lord Grim mess with the other guilds, so Ye Xiu didnt look for them.

Taking Cold Nights report, he quickly found and eliminated the target. Ye Xiu took out a notepad and wrote something down. Chen Guo looked and saw a list of characters from seven guilds. Every time a character was killed, Ye Xiu would add an X symbol to it. How tragic for Misty Castle! Their characters had a bunch of marks next to them.

Are Misty Castles player still here? Chen Guo couldnt help but ask. They had been killed to such an extent.

I havent encountered any. Ye Xiu said and opened up his friends list again: Let me ask around.

Are you still leveling at Thousand Waves Lake? Ye Xiu messaged Hazy Mist.

Hazy Mists cheeks were streaked with tears. That had to be a type of arrogance! He implied that they were helpless and that they could only hide.

What do you plan on doing! Hazy Mists heart was weeping, but his reply sounded tough.

Nothing, really. My friend just wants to know. Ye Xiu said and turned to look at Chen Guo. Chen Guo was already completely speechless, looking at this exchange.

We wont agree to your terms. Hazy Mist carried out his overall guild leaders wishes.

What a coincidence. I wont either. Ye Xiu replied.

Hazy Mist wept even harder. What do you mean, you wont either! Our players are suffering and youre probably just thinking how fun it is!

Be careful; dont let me bump into you! Ye Xiu sent another message to threaten Hazy Mist. Hazy Mist jumped up in fright and closed his messages to check his surroundings. He spun in a circle three times before confirming that he wasnt nearby.

When will this end....... Hazy Mist looked at his experience and continued to kill monsters. Even in normal circumstances, where there was no one terrorizing them while they were leveling, it would still be a few more days before they would leave Thousand Waves Lake!

On Tyrannical Ambitions side, even though they were very enthusiastic in giving reports to Ye Xiu, they didnt consider Ye Xiu as an ally. Ignoring everything else, their identity as a branch of Tyranny made them eternal enemies.

Has there been any reaction from Excellent Dynasty? Jiang You hadnt forgotten his original thoughts.

It doesnt seem like it. Cold Night said.

Could those idiots not have understood that no one can deal with Ye Qiu? Jiang You mumbled.

In the blink of an eye, the daytime went by and day gradually turned into night. More and more players began coming online, but Thousand Waves Lake was the same. The scenic lake was as beautiful as before. But to the majority of the players there, the lake was full of danger.

That afternoon, the players leveling at Thousand Waves Lake had died eleven times. The seven guilds repeatedly confirmed the reports in order to understand the situation.

If this record had been done entirely by chance, then either their opponents luck was too amazing or there was something else going on.

Could there be someone selling us out? They werent idiots. The guilds were only working for their mutual interest, so it was easy for them to think of something like this. This was why, even though they were opponents, they still made an alliance. Making an alliance at least guaranteed that no one would make things worse.

But some of the guilds were outside of their Alliance and those guilds were the first ones to be suspicious about. They could suspect them, but they had no proof. And even if they had proof, so what? They couldnt start a guild war because of this, could they? There hadnt been any large guild wars between the top guilds for a long time. This was because of the other guilds. When two guilds fought, the ones to benefit from the war wouldnt be them. This reasoning was something every guild leader understood after so many years of competing with each other.

We can bear such a loss. But those conniving guilds are too terrible. Herb Gardens Arisaema said hatefully.
