Earth’s Best Gamer Chapter 291

Chapter 291 - Conflict

“Zhong… Zhong Zhou!

“Tell me why you did that.”

After she followed Chu Yin to look at the man, the Cao-surnamed female hero suddenly put on a complicated expression.

She was furious and demanded an answer. But apart from that, she was also sad and desperate from being tricked!

“Chu Yin was murdered by that guy!

“Damn it, he was bold enough to ambush a core member of the Twin Dragon Mount fort. Master, I want to teach this guy a lesson. Such a sordid man deserves some beating!”

Mister Bug, who had awakened “Laser Eyes”, was eager to test his superpower on someone.

“He’s already Extraordinary Rank-8, even higher than the pipa woman who’s a Commander. Are you sure you want to do that?”

Li Qing, who was standing nearby, spoke to Mister Bug in a weird tone while the glow that represented Combat Ability Detection dispersed.

“Is the Extraordinary Rank-8 really something impressive? I can reach Extraordinary Rank-8 too after a while,” Mister Bug murmured.

But he quickly moved his legs back.

As a core member of the Twin Dragon Island, he had already entered Extraordinary Rank-7, but there was still some distance to Extraordinary Rank-8.

While level didn’t represent absolute combat ability, Boss Zhong, as the leader of a settlement that passed the Ten-Species Competition, couldn’t be one of the players whose level was high but strength was low.

“Something is a little bit odd. This Musical House is merely Extraordinary Rank-5 and doesn’t have a lot of resources in general.

“Since this Cao female hero is Chu Yin’s old friend, she must’ve been the first hero in the settlement, yet she’s only Extraordinary Rank-7 at this moment while this Zhong guy is already Extraordinary Rank-8. How could a player have leveled faster than the first hero in his settlement?” a core player next to Li Qing asked in confusion.

In the Twin Dragon Mount fort, Ji Ye had leveled up faster than Lu Zhishen, who was the first hero.

But that was definitely a special case. With his Fusion talent, Ji Ye could understand martial arts as well as the heroes could, and he acquired the most resources as the master.

Did this Zhong guy receive a Perfect rating in the first settlement quest and become the leader of the Musical House?

That was quite unlikely. According to the Confederate government, everyone with a Perfect rating was live-streamed once as the seeds of providence of the Earth civilization.

Elder Meng was very certain that “Zhong Zhou” was not on the list of the Chidragon streamers that he collected offline.

In a settlement that wasn’t led by players, it was almost impossible for a player to level up faster than the first hero in it unless the player got much better resources!

“Isn’t it obvious?”

Qin Yueyu laid her arrow on her bow and aimed it at the entrance of the fort.

Faced with the female hero’s questions that were filled with wrath and sorrow, Zhong Zhou, who appeared undaunted even when he confronted Chu Yin whom he murdered, chose to respond with silence for the first time!

“Zhong Zhou is a beta tester, which means that he probably ranks very high in a certain aspect, probably a music-related one, on Earth!

“Just like we can make use of the technology from Earth on the Land of Inheritance, people like Zhong Zhou can totally copy the musical knowledge from Earth to the Land of Inheritance like the typical transmigraters.

“The pipa woman in the green dress might be more skilled at classic musical instruments than the modern people, but she can’t know more about music than us.

“Besides, this woman is from a ‘Musical House’. It was inevitable that she fell in love with a man who was handsome and knowledgeable in music. As they got along with each other, she probably would’ve given herself to him, not to mention resources!”

Qin Yueyu puffed her cheeks and looked at Boss Zhong in disdain.

“Shoot, this Zhong Zhou is rather awesome, isn’t he?”

“Tsk, tsk. Why are there beautiful girls who know music in his settlement, whereas those in our settlement are smelly and sweaty men?”

Mister Bug, whose eyes were covered by the black cloth, couldn’t have looked more envious.

“But why did he murder Chu Yin? Is there a love triangle?”

Then, he became slightly curious.

“Because Chu Yin, as a music professional, knew all the knowledge and skills that he was aware of…

“On the Land of Inheritance, you can receive ‘EXP’ and ‘Honor’ by teaching the natives knowledge as well as from fighting. However, after the first teacher taught the natives information, the following teachers would receive far less Honor and EXP!”

Guo Wei lifted his glasses.

Such a problem existed in the Twin Dragon Mount fort too.

However, the Twin Dragon Mount fort had been developing fast and new natives were summoned all the time. So, the players in the logistics division could always receive enough EXP from teaching them skills.

“Is this the hospitality of the Twin Dragon Mount fort?”

“If we’re not allowed to enter the fort, let’s return to the boat!”

“That’s right, Boss Zhong, let’s go back. The Twin Dragon Mount fort is not worth our visit!”

While Boss Zhong was silent, the other players of the Musical House couldn’t hold back any longer.

“You want to go? It won’t be something that you can decide!

“Leave the items that originally belonged to the natives. Also, you must answer for your ambush on the members of the Twin Dragon Island…”

Ji Ye sounded very calm.

Dozens of armed Yue soldiers ran out from all parts and blocked the retreat of the Musical House players. The snipers, machine gunners, and artillerymen on the sentry posts all aimed their weapons at the guests!

Even Yan Qing, who had led them to the mountain, shook his head and said, “Sorry, but nobody can leave until the whole thing is over!”

His Radiant Gold Bow turned into a crossbow, and he aimed it at them from behind!

“What’s the meaning of this?”

“Why aren’t you letting us go?”

“Twin Dragon Mount fort, are you really going to kill us and loot our goods?”

“Damn it, let’s just die with each other!”

The dozen players from the other settlement all raised their musical instruments in a clamor.

However, nobody really played their instruments even though they sounded ruthless, because they had been too exhausted in resisting the eight Flood Dragons to fight anyone at this moment.

Apart from everything else, the guns and cannons were irresistible to them.

After all, technically speaking, they were “Mages” instead of “Warriors”. Without mana, they would be as weak as someone in Ordinary Rank-7.

“The Bronze Bells were gifts from the court. The One-Legged Bull Drum was made by Musician Qin and her team after they killed a monster that had a One-Legged Bull bloodline. The Seven String Guqin Ship was crafted by Musician Mu with tremendous efforts at the cost of the resources of our settlement… Why do you think they’re yours to take away?

“Our settlement was unable to resist the aliens exactly because you took away the resources. Musician Qin and Musician Mu died… The food we stored was in the guqin ship too. What makes you qualified to take them away?” Pei Xingnu demanded furiously.

After hearing that, some of the players seemed rather ashamed.

The player who was holding the pottery xun, for example, couldn’t help but put down his instrument.

The divination player who had the tortoiseshell heaved a soft sigh too.

“Hehe. That’s just your side of the story.

“If I claim that the Twin Dragon Mount fort hired those people to put on an act so that you can rob us of our equipment and resources, will this matter be widely disseminated on the forum and make the Confederation Office investigate what you did?” the middle-aged suona player said coldly and threateningly in disdain.

The flute player thought it through and gritted his teeth to continue, “That’s right. What proof do you have except the statements of a kid and a woman?”

“Proof?

“I am the proof!”

A man who was completely wet suddenly walked out of the fort and gazed at the newcomers in hatred!

“Yang Lu!”

The pipa woman, whose face became miserable because of Zhong Zhou’s silence, changed her expression after seeing the man.

“What happened? Wasn’t he dead?”

“Didn’t his body already sink to the bottom of the sea?”

Upon seeing him, the players of the Musical House also changed their expressions.

It was because the man who walked out of the Twin Dragon Mount fort was exactly the human body that the Mirage Dragon Warship saw on the surface of the sea earliest.
