Chapter 0004: The Mysterious Master
"Oh, you are still a professional player?" Chen Guo said
"I am indeed Su Mucheng," Chen Guo said
"That is exactly the point." Ye Xiu smiled
Ye Xiu nodded proudly
"Nonsense, at your age," Chen Guo said
Sister Chen, you are having a late-night snack again
It’s alright. Ye Xiu sighed
"Is that so? Let me share a secret with you; I am actually Su Mucheng," Chen Guo said.
Oh? Ye Xiu felt a wave of shame as he glanced at the end of the page. It made sense; the content of this beginner's quest had hardly changed in ten years, something that players had thoroughly mastered. A mindset like his, focused solely on valuable quests, was one that most seasoned players would adopt, so how could no one have compiled such a guide? What lay before him was precisely the guide he needed. Ye Xiu immediately prepared to follow the guide to accept the quest, and in an instant, tears streamed down his face.

What lay before him was precisely the guide he needed. Ye Xiu immediately prepared to follow the guide to accept the quest, and in an instant, tears streamed down his face. He was a man renowned as a textbook example of glory! Now, he was actually facing a beginner's guide to undertake a beginner's quest; how could this be bearable, how could this be bearable?
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Go check out your strategy guide!" Chen Guo waved her hand, and she was no longer irritated by Ye Xiu's unhurried demeanor. This was someone who had been through the professional scene; even if he had been eliminated, did she really need to worry about him?
"Lack of public spirit." Chen Guo expressed disdain
The realm of the gods is not merely a map; it is fundamentally another world. The size of the map is comparable to the totality of five major regions in an ordinary world. Here, there are more challenging dungeons, more powerful equipment, rarer materials, and, moreover, a more liberated atmosphere. For the skilled, one will always meet in the realm of the gods; this is the ultimate battleground for players to strive for.
I apologize... Chen Guo realized that this remark had touched on the other person's sore spot
Seeing the murderous intent on Chen Guo's face, Ye Xiu considered that he still had to give face to the boss. Finally, he reluctantly put down his bowl and sat down at a computer.
Sister Chen enjoys a special meal every day, while we only have instant noodles. The masses, unable to resist temptation, can only satisfy their cravings with instant noodles from the internet café, looking at others' six dishes and one soup with envy and resentment.
"The fish-flavored shredded pork is really spicy today, Xiao Chu, you finished it all." Chen Guo didn't eat much rice either; after taking a bite of the fish-flavored shredded pork, she gasped, threw down her chopsticks, and went to drink some water. When she returned with her cup, she kicked Ye Xiu's stool and said, "Are you done? Hurry up."
Why wait for that day? I can sign it for you in advance now
I am just busy playing games," Ye Xiu said seriously
Ye Xiu smiled wryly
"How vain! Who wants your signature? I am asking you to help me get my idol's signature," Chen Guo said
If you want to eat, go buy it yourself across the street. Don't always think of sending others to do it for you, " Chen Guo said
Yes, he rarely makes an appearance. I said, although you are just a half-baked player, you are still in this circle, how could you not know this? Chen Guo said
Have you never brought a newcomer along or guided a novice?" Chen Guo said
I am indeed Ye Qiu. "Ye Xiu cried.
half-hearted
Having bought some late-night snacks, Chen Guo invited the employees of the internet café to enjoy them together. The aroma of the dishes wafted through the café, immediately provoking a chorus of lament and protest from the patrons online at m.hetushu.com. At a time when dinner had already been fully digested, suddenly smelling the fragrance of food was not a pleasure, but rather a temptation
That's right, this is the mindset of an experienced person. However, you don't need to research it yourself; just turn to the last page of the guide you were reading!
Chen Guo turned her head to look at Ye Xiu, nearly spitting out blood in shock. While everyone else was rushing into the game, this guy was leisurely browsing a webpage, and when she glanced up, she found that he was actually looking at a guide for beginner quest processes.
The opening of the new district is indeed quite lively. An ordinary day has turned into a bustling one for the Xingxin Internet Café, all because of the new district's launch. Looking around, it seems like the players from the new district have reserved the entire place; everyone has already opened the login interface, with their mice hovering over the still grayed-out Zone 10, poised and ready to go.
"Hey! Why are you still dawdling?" Chen Guo appeared to be even more anxious than the person involved
"Let's see the excitement," Chen Guo said
Haha, so that's how it is. Ye Xiu smiled
"Why do I need to make a phone call? I have someone I can command, why trouble others?" Chen Guo said
What is the rush? Ye Xiu is genuinely calm, not pretending. It is undeniable that the promotional efforts and operations of Glory have been successful, and Glory players care more than ever about the various competitive rankings in the game. These rankings rely on true skill, not something that can be easily obtained through money or luck. However, for a seasoned professional who has already achieved all the highest honors in Glory, these matters seem rather mundane in Ye Xiu's eyes
"How many people are in the internet café? Can you bring them over from www.hetushucomcom? Why talk so much? If you really want to eat but are too lazy to buy, just call the place across the street. Would they be unwilling to deliver?" Chen Guo said
"Does Sister Chen have a phone? May I borrow it to take a note?" someone said
What about your work? Chen Guo asked
"Well, Chen Guo, I have seen your ID card, and you are not older than me. You can call me 'sister'; I don't mind, and you won't lose out either," Chen Guo said
Ye Xiu smiled and said, "It's still quite sophisticated."
This time, not only the online crowd but also the internet café staff were moved to tears. Ye Xiu seized the opportunity and casually asked, "Is the boss's surname Chen?"
"Don't be discouraged, 25 is not too old. Practice well and make a comeback," Chen Guo said
"Whatever..." Ye Xiu chuckled awkwardly
I haven't touched this beginner's stuff in many years, how could I possibly remember it!" Ye Xiu said leisurely
"Stop pretending; in fact, you are not retired, but rather eliminated because you couldn't secure a position, right?" Chen Guo said
Are you going too? Ye Xiu was a bit surprised. He had previously played Chen Guo's account, "Duan Yan Xia," on the fifth district. If we consider the start date of the new district, today marks exactly five years. That account, of course, cannot compare to the top accounts of professional players, but among ordinary players, it is already quite good, and it's not so easy to just say to give up.
I would like to study this; I will only complete the tasks that reward attribute points and skill points. The rewards from other tasks are merely experience and equipment, so it would be faster to just grind in dungeons instead said Ye Xiu
I wondered how that guy could be cleaned up in just over 40 seconds; it turns out he is a professional, albeit a half-baked one from www.hetushu.com.
Upon entering the new area, players are eager to compete for rankings, secure first kills in dungeons, and achieve completion records, among many other tasks awaiting them. The thrill of exploration is truly exhilarating. Chen Guo gazed at the guests and couldn't help but be moved by the atmosphere. However, when she turned to look, Ye Xiu was still leisurely picking at the vegetable shreds, completely indifferent to the excitement around him, which was quite unbecoming of an explorer.
"Next time you go, could you please give a heads-up? Would it be too much trouble to help out a bit?" someone said
Let's play a game
"If that day really comes, I still have something to ask of you," Chen Guo said
There is no time," Ye Xiu said
"Those who have no time will not come to play games; those who play games are simply passing their surplus time," said Chen Guo
"I know, of course I know. Let me tell you a secret, I am actually Ye Qiu," said Ye Xiu
What are you in a hurry for? Ye Xiu asked
There is truly nothing in this regard," Ye Xiu said
As the clock approached midnight, in the final ten seconds, some individuals in the internet café began to countdown involuntarily. As the countdown grew louder, when the last utterance of "zero" erupted, the dimness of the tenth zone in the login window flickered away. The actions of everyone in the internet café were remarkably synchronized, as they collectively reached out to insert their account cards into the login device and clicked on the tenth zone with their mice.
However, when her gaze returned to her own screen, Chen Guo couldn't help but say, "If there is anything unclear about your beginner's tasks, just ask me."
Chen Guo sat down at the machine next to Ye Xiu and casually logged into her character, Zhu Yanxia. The popularity of players in the other nine major districts did not significantly decline due to the opening of the tenth district; in fact, the older districts were even more so. This was primarily because managing an account in Glory is not an easy task. It took Chen Guo five years for her Zhu Yanxia to become a standout among ordinary players, making it hard to part with. Moreover, in the end, everyone would be aiming for the shared map of the top ten districts, the Realm of the Gods.
"Come on, you can't even do these things? You still need to look at the guide?" If it weren't for that genuine first edition card, Chen Guo would never believe that this guy has ten years of gaming experience
"Damn, it seems like I forced him to play, what kind of person is this?" Chen Guo was complaining behind Ye Xiu with little patience. The other employees in the internet café were snickering to themselves. They noticed that this new network administrator seemed a bit different today; he could casually make their boss, Miss Chen, lose her temper, which was not something just anyone could achieve.
"Signature," Chen Guo said
Su Mucheng, as well as Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu's potential difficulties, that guy likes to act mysterious
"Please line up for the instant noodles, and do not create chaos," Chen Guo called out
How do you know
Oh? Who?
It is almost time. Chen Guo raised her wrist to show Ye Xiu the watch; it was currently 11:53 PM, and there were 7 minutes left until the opening of Glory's Tenth District.
"I know many famous professionals, but who is Ye Xiu? I've never heard of him. Is he just a mediocre player?" Chen Guo asked.
"Quite advanced? A professional player?" Chen Guo was taken aback
Ye Xiu remained silent
"Have you stepped down?" Chen Guo said
Is that so? Ye Xiu is in tears, and Comrade Ye Qiu is chatting with you face to face, sister
I ... ...
What is the matter
