The King's Avatar: Become Stronger After Being Rejected, Don't Agree!

Chapter 85 The Shameless Warlock

"Huh? Someone you know?" Zhan Loulan was taken aback for a moment: "You mean—"

"Mr. Zhong," Sun Zheping said.

"Huh? That guy?" Zhan Loulan laughed. "Since he's that bastard's friend, he's naturally my friend too. May I ask what a friend's name is?"

"Sun Zheping."

"So it's Brother Sun Zheping—ah? Sun, Sun Zheping?" Zhan Loulan was a little confused, then burst into laughter: "Hahaha, the same name as my idol!"

Sun Zheping, this name sounds very ordinary, but if you associate him with the Berserker and professional players, then he represents the pinnacle of a previous profession.

"If nothing unexpected happens, he and the one you think is the same person should be." Lu Chen, who was controlling the character "Ju Bei Yao Yue," drank some beverage and consumed two health potions before running over. Seeing that they seemed to know each other, it was difficult to decide whether to continue the attack.

"—Then, that ammunition expert, could it be the legendary Zhang Jiale?" Zhan Loulan's voice sounded strange: "Rumor has it that Lord Grim is the legendary Ye Qiu—are the three of them together because some major upheaval has occurred in the online game and someone needs to come out and save the world?"

"—Well, it sounds a bit far-fetched, but never mind, Grandson, do you know them?"

"Well, I asked Boss Zhong for a favor before. After Boss Zhong found out that I used to play professionally, he said he wanted me to help Yizhan Warrior."

"We'll give the team a hard time, then we'll stay and help them," Sun Zheping said.

Of course, thanks to Lu Chen's intervention, Sun Zheping's condition continued to improve, and the matter was dropped. Boss Zhong didn't say anything, only that he could still contact him if needed later.

He's a pretty good person.

"This—" Could it really be true? Lou Guanning, the operator of Zhan Loulan, had some doubts in his heart. He checked the time. Yesterday, that bastard Young Master Zhong said he had a meeting. If he called to confirm now, he probably wouldn't answer the phone.

"Do you guys really think it's true?" Lou Guanning looked at his childhood friends beside him.

"Probably. Apart from Lao Zhong, no one else knows about this. The other party probably does know Lao Zhong, but whether it's that big shot—"

"If he really is, then those two are truly the great Jiale and the great Ye Qiu?" Wen Kebei was a little excited. He played a Battle Mage account, and his most admired professional player was naturally Ye Qiu.

"These are just rumors, but with our strength, it's quite possible that we'd be outmatched even in a four-on-five fight—" Lou Guanning had a headache. He had originally thought that since Jun Moxiao, Qianhua Meiren, and Zai Shui Yi Xia were making waves in the God's Domain these past few days, and were three experts, he wanted to see if he could recruit them to be substitutes for their Yizhan team.

Yes, a substitute.

The purpose of these five rich kids establishing the Yizhan Club is to fulfill their professional dreams, and the main players will definitely be these five.

However, things have gone wrong with the plan.

If it really is these three top players, let alone how to set the price, they would find it difficult to even mention the possibility of them being substitutes!

Isn't this just pure insult? If they really wanted to and agreed to it, their fans alone would be able to make the Yizhan Club look bad.

"So, you also got a share of the bounty?"

A voice suddenly came from the other side.

Lou Guanning was taken aback. The one who spoke was the sharpshooter who had taken on five opponents and even killed Wen Kebei. Unsure of this person's identity, Lou Guanning repeatedly denied it: "No, no, no, we were just curious about the level of this brother who has been making waves these past few days. We came to see him and make friends, but we've never seen a true god before. We didn't know there were three—four great gods."

After discussing it for a while, Lu Chen and Ye Xiu roughly guessed Lou Guanning's original plan. After some deliberation, Ye Xiu said with a smile, "If you're just inviting us to join your club, that's fine. However, we could cooperate a little, how about that?"

Cooperation?

Lou Guanning became somewhat interested.

【Great, really great. Um, Xiao Chen, could you send the material requirements for that design to Ye Xiu and the others? ————】 Su Muqiu couldn't stop smiling these past two days.

The reason is simple: Team Happy and Team Yi Zhan have reached a cooperative relationship.

Ye Xiu, Sun Zheping, and Zhang Jiale provided coaching services to the Yi Zhan team, while the Yi Zhan team mobilized its manpower and resources, either helping to steal BOSSes or directly providing materials, aiming for a mutually beneficial relationship.

The Silver Weapon Project, which had been stalled due to funding issues, has begun to move forward again.

The upgrade plans for the Thousand Chance Umbrella, the Broken Army, the Seven Kills, and the Phoenix Perch have been advanced. Zhang Jiale's Silver Weapon Automatic Pistol also has a design concept. Sun Zheping's Heavy Sword has also begun to progress slowly. Everything is developing in a positive direction.

Meanwhile, Excellent Dynasty also implemented strategies targeting Lord Grim. However, under the combined efforts of Yi Zhan, Zhang Jiale, Sun Zheping, and Lu Chen, Excellent Dynasty suffered considerable losses and became much more subdued in the past few days. Lu Chen's long-awaited bounty was finally set, but like the five accounts under Yi Zhan's name, it was set at 100. In contrast, the bounties for Zai Shui Yi Xia and Qian Hua Mei Li were set at 300.

This has kept Lu Chen in a bad mood for the past two days.

While I don't expect to be on the same level as the veteran masters, at the very least, I should be different from Yi Zhan Tian Xia. Paying two hundred yuan for this isn't too much, right?

"Xiao Lu, are we going to raid the boss again today? We've recruited two more guilds." Ye Xiu asked with a smile.

"I'm not going. I'll send you the materials, and you can figure out how to play it." Lu Chen glanced at the location. Yesterday, he had gone to collect materials and traveled quite far, so he decided not to go to the other side of the map with them.

"Okay, oh, the equipment needs fixing too—" Ye Xiu glanced at the status of the Thousand Chance Umbrella: "Da Sun, Lele, you two get out of here! If you add me to Lele's list, I'll smash your head in!" Zhang Jiale cursed irritably: "I'm going to get two purple weapons. Following you is like starving for three days and nine meals a day, and you can't even provide a full set of purple equipment—"

"It's so lively where you are." Tang Rou glanced at them with some envy. These past two days, she didn't have to worry about Guo Guo being alone. After Jun Mo Xiao raised his cup to invite the moon and met Zhang Jiale and Sun Zheping, Chen Guo drove Zhu Yanxia around with them every day, having a great time. Tang Rou, Baozi, Mei Guang, and Qiao Yifan, on the other hand, were still focused on leveling up.

We need to step up our efforts!

Tang Rou's fighting spirit was rekindled. She called out "Baozi!" and dragged everyone along to grind monsters and level up.

As for the guild in the tenth district—oh, it was outsourced to Comrade Blue River of Blue River Pavilion.

Yes, Lanhe, for some unknown reason, personally infiltrated the guild as its leader. Even after being discovered by Ye Xiu and his group, he didn't leave but just stayed there, occasionally helping to manage the guild, which made them happy to have some free time.

Lanhe has a pretty high reputation.

"Let me see what materials are needed to upgrade the Seven Kills of the Broken Army—hmm, Inos Blue Crystal Ore, the mining site is nearby."

There are also many mining sites on the large map of Honor. These ores can be used as materials. They are not expensive and are not considered rare materials, but they have some special uses. The different combinations of various ores are a science in the design of Silver Weapons.

Since the demand wasn't too high, Lu Chen didn't plan to buy from the market. Instead, he carried a small pickaxe and ran off into the wilderness alone.

"Boss, we saw that guy with the bounty on his head—"

"Hmm? Which one?"

"Raise a glass to the moon!"

"Raise a glass to the moon? Let me see—tsk, only a hundred bucks?"

"Um, so, are we still going to do it or not?"

"Go for it! Why not? A hundred dollars is still money, and maybe we can even lure out the others. Cheer up! Whether we eat meat or drink soup next month depends on today!"

"clear!"

Lu Chen, who was focused on the mining site, gradually noticed something was wrong. Scattered characters were gathering around him.

Judging from this situation—

Lu Chen stuffed the ore into his backpack and looked around. "They probably aren't here to steal my mining spot, are they?"

"Boss, 100 Dollars has spotted us!" a voice exclaimed in surprise.

"Damn it, how many times have I told you to turn off the all-chat microphone! You—"

"Um, boss, it seems like you're using the mic for everyone too—"

"Hey, you little brat, you actually dare to talk back to me?! Brothers, don't just stand there, let's go!" An angry voice rang out, and in the next instant, the characters who had been scattered suddenly rushed forward.

Lu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his gun and fired in two directions, but soon the enemy's formation changed.

"This is... the Spider Spiral Formation?" Lu Chen recalled the formation he had seen during the Christmas event and couldn't help but ask.

Two more shots were fired, but still failed to break through the enemy's formation. Despite his flanking maneuvers, Lu Chen's "Raising a Cup to Invite the Moon" remained trapped in the very center of the enemy's formation.

It's clear that the Spiral Array set up by this guy is far more sophisticated than that of the previous Excellent Dynasty player.

"Oh? You've got some sense—"

"Bang!" The black heavy sniper rifle appeared in his hand in an instant. He jumped back into the air and fired a shot in the direction of the sound.

"You son of a bitch—" A somewhat surprised and uncertain voice rang out, and it was clear that they had been hit.

However, he couldn't take down the opponent with a single shot.

"Pretty accurate? You shouldn't have been able to see me from your position, so you judged me by my voice?"

Huh? The voice changed? So fast?

No, that's not right—Lu Chen was instantly speechless: "Why are you using a screen spying feature?"

Yes, Lu Chen instantly guessed what the other person was doing. They were probably playing games together at an internet cafe and had now moved to someone else's perspective, speaking through someone else's headset.

This behavior is shameless, but very effective.

"This is a gaming kid! What rules do online games have? Just enjoy yourself! Learn from this, this is advice from a pro!" The voice laughed arrogantly.

A master?

"Who are you, some kind of 'god'? How come someone calls themselves a 'god'?" Lu Chen asked, somewhat amused.

"Heh heh, you've revealed my name! You're scared, aren't you? I'm Ye Qiu from Excellent Era!"

"what?"

"Hahaha, scared, huh? If you're scared, then get down here obediently and let me kill you ten or eight times over. Consider it your payment for my cigarettes. If I'm in a good mood later, I'll teach you a move or two, and you'll make a profit—"

"Brother Ye! This guy says he's you!" Lu Chen didn't listen to the other person's words and looked up to call out.

"Huh? You said it was me?" Ye Xiu looked up from across the table, somewhat bewildered. "You've been scammed?"

"No, but this guy's Spiral Array seems to have something special about it, quite shameless—hmm? Is he a sorcerer?" Lu Chen observed the other party's movements while dodging their pursuit.

"A warlock?" Ye Xiu was also slightly taken aback, then became interested and nudged Zhang Jiale from below: "Stop haggling, Xiao Chen's been ambushed, let's go check it out."

"Were you ambushed?" Zhang Jiale asked, somewhat bewildered. "You didn't escape?"

"I'm trapped. The other side says it's me—"

"Your voice doesn't sound like the legendary Ye Qiu at all!"

"Wow, you're really good at bragging, and you even have people playing along with you?"

"Alright, alright, that was just a test. Actually, I'm Zhang Jiale!" A boastful voice rang out from Lu Chen's earpiece: "Damn, how did you know that so accurately?"

"Brother Jiale, this guy says it's you—" Lu Chen fired his gun to stop the warlock's control while constantly dodging the enemy's pursuit using his movement skills.

"Damn, who is it?"

"Hmm? Interesting, kid. You're really shameless—" the warlock chuckled. "If I said I was Sun Zheping, would you be able to find someone there too?"

"—That's really true." Lu Chenqian chuckled. "You guessed right!"

"So hilarious! I'm really growing to like you more and more! Okay, I'll stick to my name and identity: Lan Yu Yu Wenzhou!"

"Your voice doesn't match the person's—"

Both were intentionally stalling for time; one was trying to lure out the more expensive recruits, while the other was waiting for his own top talents to arrive and wipe them out in one fell swoop.

"[It's so lively? Let me see—]" Su Muqiu curiously leaned over: "[Hmm? Xiao Chen, shift the view towards the warlock—]"

"A warlock?" Lu Chen was taken aback, and looked over as Su Muqiu pointed. "What's wrong?"

[That thing he's holding... I don't think I've seen it before? A silver weapon?] Su Muqiu raised an eyebrow: [A player with the skill to make a silver weapon? Wait a minute, judging by his tactical command level, he can't be an ordinary player, right? Then he—hiss—]

Xiao Chen, if you provoke him, just say—

"—Yu Wenzhou, my foot! Weren't you Wei Wuxia, the guy who got forced into retirement by Yu Wenzhou?"

The voices that had been cursing and scolding the underlings while trying to influence Lu Chen suddenly stopped, and even the sorcerer who was setting up the formation against the wind suddenly stopped making any big movements.

It really is true—
