The first person to almost fall over hearing Ye Xius words was Chen Guo. Her complicated and conflicting feelings instantly grew even further. However, as someone who had broken away from Excellent Era and as a fan of Ye Xiu, Chen Guo was looking forward to what would happen next. She stared at Ye Xius screen and even had the urge to grab Ye Xius headphones.
In game, everyone on scene froze.
Lord Grim was Ye Qiu. This was an issue that was still being debated, however, most views pointed towards this. As normal players, they might not have much authority to say anything, but they were free to choose whichever side they liked.
To choose to believe or not to believe.
Ice of Dawn was a believer. Thus, at that instant, his emotions surged. He quickly realized what these words entailed.
This was as if Blue Rains Yu Wenzhou or Huang Shaotian appeared in front of them and told them to take down Herb Garden. Even if Ice of Dawn were alone, he wouldnt hesitate to jump into the flames and do as he was told.
When these words came out, Mugworts expression immediately changed. Of course, in the game, the others could only see his character and not his actual face.
As for Excellent Dynastys players, when Lord Grim suddenly slid out from the hole, they were already in conflict.
Was Lord Grim really Ye Qiu?
This topic was without a doubt discussed the most intensely in Excellent Dynasty. The guild leader, Chen Yehui, saw this, but it wouldnt be easy to stop them. He could only send a few of his trusted subordinates and have them lead the direction of the discussion. He wasnt trying to prove that Lord Grim wasnt Ye Qiu, but rather to destroy Ye Qius image among Excellent Era players.
He had thought of doing this a long time ago, but he was always too afraid to do so. Up until now, using the Clubs public statements as a base, he used those as arguments to being carrying it out now.
However, using this chance to tarnish Ye Qius image in Excellent Dynasty had only just begun. There hadnt been any significant effects yet! Excellent Dynastys players were still relying on their own judgement to make a decision. Some of them firmly believed that Lord Grim was Ye Qiu. Some didnt believe it, while some werent sure.
At this moment, Lord Grim leaped out in front of them and yelled out an Im Ye Qiu.
Truthfully if he really was Ye Qiu, they werent convinced that he would be so direct. This was because although Ye Qiu was a God, he had never shown himself outside of the game. Fans knew very little about him. Otherwise, why would Chen Guo be so conflicted? She had her own thoughts on how this God would act, but his actions were inconsistent with her own thoughts, which was why she was conflicted.
Excellent Dynastys team leader Dreamland was one of the guilds core members. When Lord Grim suddenly jumped out, claiming that he was Ye Qiu, and then gave an order, for a moment, he was unsure of what to do. Dreamland had his own thoughts on whether or not Lord Grim was Ye Qiu though. But at this moment, he was leading the team for Excellent Dynasty. Even if Lord Grim was Ye Qiu, if he carried out his orders, he would be blindly following his idol and perhaps not working in the guilds interests.
What were the guilds interests right now? It should be to first kill off Blue Brook Guild because Blue Brook Guild already had the damage dealt advantage on the Wilderness Escort. It didnt make sense to cooperate with them and put an end to Herb Garden who was in a similar situation as them!
Thinking of this, Dreamland immediately typed out a message in the team chat, ordering everyone to stay put for now.
While he was typing out this message, a few Excellent Dynasty players had already started running towards Lord Grim. When the message came out, they were suddenly at a loss again.
Dreamland was having a huge headache. He immediately went to ask Chen Yehui for advice.
Chen Yehui was also very startled when he received this message. Was Ye Qiu finally using his identity as a weapon?
Chen Yehui regretted that the person he had sent to lead the team wasnt his own trusted aide. However, since Dreamland was someone who had the power to lead a team, Chen Yehui also had a certain understanding towards him. This person understood the importance of working in the guilds and the teams benefits. At this moment, he probably had made his own decision already and didnt listen to Ye QIus orders yet.
Thinking of this, Chen Yehui relaxed a bit. As he replied to Dreamland, he reminded himself to cleanse those who held different views. Excellent Dynastys core members had already tried to rope in as many non Ye Qiu fans as possible. In the beginning, Chen Yehui didnt think that they would make any difference because he hadnt thought Ye Qiu would actually come to the game to fight with them. Facing this type of situation, he should have cleansed them all long ago. Chen Guo was upset! Why hadnt he done this earlier?
Chen Yehui was very careful with his reply to Dreamland. Dreamland was currently neutral. If he directly talked bad about Ye Qiu, it might have the opposite effect. Anyone could see Ye Qius impact on Excellent Eras achievements. Making them flip sides with just a few words wouldnt be that easy. It wasnt a good idea to do it at this time either. In Chen Yehuis eyes, Dreamland wasnt a reckless, brain-dead fan. Thus, his following command was to let Dreamland weigh the situation and give priority to the guilds interests.
Give priority to the guilds interests!
In Dreamlands eyes, Lord Grims orders wouldnt be working in the guilds interests!
Dreamland hadnt said anything the entire time. Besides the few in Excellent Dynasty who had slipped away in the beginning, no one else had moved. And once the ones who slipped away realized that their actions werent aligned with their team, they immediately returned. From this, it could be seen that such discipline in a Club guild was something that players guilds made for fun didnt have.
Was no one in Excellent Dynasty as fan of Ye Qius?
Seeing how some of them had run off, there were definitely fans!
However, when Ye Xiu blurted out an Im Ye Qiu, some of them wavered.
It was similar to how Chen Guo almost fell over. Ye Xius actions didnt fit with their image of God, which was why they hesitated. The initial few saw that everyone wasnt moving, so they began to waver too.
Why isnt anyone moving? Ye Xiu said. Lord Grim walked over as if he were going to stand with Excellent Dynasty.
Uh Dreamland wanted to say something, when Lord Grim suddenly stopped.
Dreamland was startled, when suddenly a shout could be heard. He turned his head. Lord Grim was now amongst Herb Gardens troops.
Shadow Clone Technique!
Whats going on?
Dreamland was at a loss. Then, he saw Herb Gardens Mugwort in the air. He wasnt doing this himself. Lord Grim, who had suddenly moved next to him, had done it.
How was this done? Dreamland didnt know. He hadnt seen it in time. When he turned over, all he saw was Mugworts flying out as well as a bunch of shouts from Herb Gardens players as they surrounded him and began to attack.
Take him down!!
Mugworts fell in Blue Brook Guilds territory.
Ice of Dawn was also startled, but after hearing Ye Xiu suddenly say Take him down, he suddenly woke up with a start and also shouted a Take him down!! Blue Brook Guilds players immediately surrounded Mugworts.
Mugworts might be a top player in the game, but there was no way he could fight against an entire group of experts. His Quick Recover had been done beautifully, but his hopes had already withered away.
Too careless!
He had seen that Dreamland wasnt siding with the self-proclaimed Ye Qiu and was just about to tease him, but who would have thought he would suddenly sneak attack like that.
Against a group of wolves, Mugworts only had half his heath left. He knew that he wouldnt be able to be saved. He could only turn his head hatefully and see the same result for Lord Grim.
The results were disappointing though.
Ye Xiu hadnt gone in on impulse. He had calculated everything beforehand. Before sending Mugworts flying away, he had already determined an escape route. When Mugworts looked back, Lord Grim had already run away.
Beautiful! Ice of Dawn praised. He ordered his subordinates to go to Lord Grims side to block the incoming Herb Garden players.
To catch thieves, first catch the leader! Ice of Dawn laughed as Mugworts fell. On paper, the number of players on Herb Gardens side was about the same as Blue Brook Guilds, but without a leader, it would be a one-sided defeat.
Youre right.
Ice of Dawn heard Lord Grim give a praise as well. Afterwards, he discovered that he was suddenly in the air as well.
Whats going on?
Ice of Dawn wasnt sure what happened.
Did I press jump? Ice of Dawn looked down at his keyboard. His left hand was far away from the jump button.
After that, he heard a ton of angry shouts. Didnt he just hear this sound before? It sounded very similar to when Lord Grim had been surrounded by Herb Gardens group.
Take him down!
Then, he heard another shout he had heard before.
Ice of Dawn fell to the ground. He had even forgotten to use Quick Recover. When he looked up, he saw a bunch of Guild Excellent Dynasty tags
Ice of Dawn suddenly understood what had happened. He was just like Mugworts. He struggled to adjust his camera, but he wasnt even able to do that. As a mage class with only cloth armor, he died even faster.
There were now two teams without heads.
Excellent Dynastys players instantly understood what was going on.
KILL!! Everyone shouted.
But kill who? Who had they decided to kill?
Chen Guo had her mouth wide open as she stared at Ye Xiu. Ye Xiu was as calm as ever.
