After the group returned to the solitary building that they had previously been locked up in, the feeling this time could be said a stark difference from what it felt previously.
The place was still the same place, the things in the building were still the same, but in the eyes of everyone, now it was no longer so cold and alien as before—the workings of the mind were a very mystical thing. In times when one was in a good mood, seeing a kitchen knife would make one think of cooking a good meal to reward oneself. In times one was in a bad mood, seeing a kitchen knife would only make one plan to slash others with it…
“Come come come, let’s play Fight the Landlord!”
Since that so-called Rookie King title had been rejected by him, harping on it wouldn’t help at all. Hong Dali was someone who did not regret anything. Anyway, he could ask money from home should he run out of it. Furthermore, most of the few things that he had started up had earned quite a bit of money too. Fear not, let’s take things slowly!
Once he’d thought through things, his mood became better, and naturally, he wanted to play something.
Hearing that Dali wanted to play Fight the Landlord, the others immediately responded, and Tang Muxin held Lin Chuyin’s hand as she asked, “Sister Chuyin, do you know how to play Fight the Landlord?”
“Uh, never played it before.” Usually, apart from creating some new inventions and creations, she had not come into much contact with other things. Actually, that was very normal, because nobody could play it with her even if she wanted to…
“I’ll teach you, then.” Tang Muxin explained the rules of Fight the Landlord to Lin Chuyin on the spot.
After all, Lin Chuyin was someone whose IQ was as high as 180. Thus, after only listening once, she had already understood how to play it. Thereafter, the three of them, Hong Dali, Lin Chuyin, and Tang Muxin started to reach for the cards, and soon after, a disparity could be seen…
“Two Fours!” This was Hong Dali.
“A pair of Fives!” This was Tang Muxin.
“A pair of Fours, a pair of Fives, I haven’t used my Three yet. I have Three, Four, Five, Six and Seven here. Hong Dali put two Fours out first, that means he should either have none of the Threes or three Threes, if not he should flash out one or two Threes first. As for Tang Muxin, she doesn’t have many small cards in her hands. Hong Dali is the landlord with 20 cards, Tang Muxin should now be left with 15 cards. If she had three Threes, she could still use up one or two small cards, then she’d be left with 10 to 11 cards. Uh, in that case, it should be easy for her to escape, then I will be under her. I should stabilize my alignment… two Tens.” This was Lin Chuyin…
Hong Dali directly threw out his cards without thinking. He really didn’t have any Threes, and it was obvious that Tang Muxin had three Threes, why should he even continue playing…
Everyone around them watched until they didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. Seems like Young Master had met his bane this time!
“I’m not playing anymore, I’m not playing anymore! I can’t even lose or win with this, it’s not fun, let’s go and play Draconic Continent!” Acting like he was no longer interested, Hong Dali’s entire forehead brimmed with sweat as he hurriedly requested to change the game.
Otherwise, should Lin Chuyin continue analyzing for a little while more, she could even manage to analyze what cards he had…
Lin Chuyin hadn’t played enough. “Why aren’t we playing anymore…”
Thus, everyone started to find computers to play Draconic Continent.
Speaking of which, in the “Forest Capital” of the Hong Family estate, it was naturally not difficult to find computers. Especially since they were no longer in confinement, Ling Xiaoyi, with just a random phone call, could get a helper over who delivered ten sets of brand new laptops. Hong Dali, on the other hand, gave Yao Tianhao a call. “Old Yao, how’s the training of the accounts going? How’s the ‘family’ been doing?”
Yao Tianhao laughed and said, “Young Master, the ‘family’ is currently doing rather well, and it’s expanding rapidly in terms of its scale. We’ve received yet a few more experts again!”
“Oh? That’s not bad!” Hong Dali smiled from ear to ear. “In that case, wait for me to log in and I’ll have a look at it.”
While he was preparing to go online, the Grand League family’s side, meanwhile, had started to spread. “Young Master is going to log in. Everyone, prepare to welcome him! Line up properly. Stand in your formations and prepare to receive inspections from Young Master! If everyone performs well, you’ll get a lot of tips!”
Therefore, Hong Dali and the rest logged onto the game and carried out their inspections.
[Grand League-Young Master] has logged in.
[Grand League-Muxin] has logged in.
[Grand League-Mingyu] has logged in.
…
Once Hong Dali’s side had logged in, the sight in front of his eyes directly gave him a scare!
The place he was currently at was within a valley. That was alright, the problem was that in front of him could be said to be a sea of people. With [Grand League-Tianhao] taking the lead, behind him were core members, and further behind was a dark mass of heads. Hong Dali counted roughly and reckoned that there was at least more than two thousand people. It seemed like the development these few days had been rather rapid, and furthermore, there was an unceasing number of people who came from all around to assemble here.
What concept was gathering over two thousand people in a game?
That meant that every place that they went to would be left barren, and anything that could be attacked would be blown into bits and pieces!
To put it this way, the [World of Warcraft] back then on Earth had only 40 people in one big group. Over here, there were directly 50 big groups. Should a BOSS appear down here now, he’d definitely end up being KOed in a second. Moreover, by then that BOSS wouldn’t even be able to return while crying out that, “It’s that guy who had hit me, but I can’t remember clearly who were exactly the ones who hit me…”
It was roughly that kind of situation.
Hong Dali was very satisfied with the scene in front of his eyes. Thus, he raised his hand high and shouted with a strong vibe of a leader. “Hello, brothers! You’ve worked hard, brothers!”
[Grand League] cheered in unison. “Greetings, Young Master!”
[Grand League-Tianhao]: “Brothers of [Grand League], start with the horns!”
Soon after, the entire server in the public chat forum was instantly drowned with a spate of yellow texts depicting the stat improvements in the items in the game…
Hong Dali was very satisfied with this scene until he saw that Lin Chuyin had arrived…
[Grand League-Chuyin]: “Uh, it’s not so bad over here.”
En? Aye?! Hong Dali took a look. A little girl with two pigtails was standing beside him, and her name was suddenly shown to be [Grand League-Chuyin]!
Chuyin had come so quickly?!
Hong Dali looked at Chuyin’s level, Level 1?!
What the heck was going on?! This was a place for those over Level 50, right? How did this Lin Chuyin at Level 1 come over here?!
Wait a minute, why did that piece of equipment on her look so familiar?! It couldn’t be…
Hong Dali, who was in front of the laptop, loudly questioned Lin Chuyin as if he’d gone crazy. “Chuyin, that piece of equipment on you is…”
“En?” Lin Chuyin at the other side of the room turned her head around and rightfully said, “GM’s Little Underwear, uh, that thing seems rather powerful. En, and this too, it’s called GM’s Little Brassiere, it’s very powerful too.”
Everyone was astonished!
“You…” Hong Dali was going crazy. “How did you manage to get those two pieces of equipment?!”
Had this been made known to Liu Mingxin, would he directly break down?
“Uh,” Lin Chuyin tilted her head to one side. She had no expression on her face as she rightfully said, “I visited the server of this game, and after that, I found the GM’s orders. Conveniently opened a GM account as well. Is there any problem with that?”
What problem do you think there is!
Hong Dali’s head was pounding. “What you mean is that you’re now the… GM?”
Lin Chuyin: “Uh, looks like it.”
Everyone was totally speechless.
That was definitely cheating! That was cheating! They’d only planned to bring her along to play the game, and in the end, she created a GM?
Liu Mingxin would go crazy, he sure would!
WAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Nice!
