Chapter 206 -204: Someone Else’s NPC (2nd Update)

Jiang Qiao was now also in the Dancing Nuclear Guild, and the current time was 6:20 in the morning, with only about 25,000 people online on the server.

The Wasp Knight had informed Jiang Qiao of the news that a small town had appeared on the flatlands of the Black Soil Swamp.

As for how exactly to deal with this small town, Jiang Qiao was still considering… After all, the small town in the Black Soil Swamp was protected by the gods of this world, and it seemed a bit inappropriate for Jiang Qiao to directly let the players enter the town and start plundering it.

At the same time, Jiang Qiao had to take the gameplay into account… The interactions between the players and the small town of the Black Soil Swamp had to be interesting.

Taking all this into consideration, the reason Jiang Qiao had now come to the stronghold of Dancing Nuclear Guild was to gauge the players’ thoughts on this update, as well as to speak with Sheral, the chosen one whose food consumption unit was two thousand.

However, Sheral still had not woken up; when Jiang Qiao found her, guided by a fluffy rabbit, she was lying asleep outside Fureya’s tree hollow.

The players kindly provided her with a bed… and Mo Shigui’s Fureya had not returned to her tree hollow, standing quietly beside Sheral’s bed, seemingly lost in thought.

When the Fureya slightly lifted her head and saw Jiang Qiao arriving and seemed to want to say something, but Jiang Qiao raised his hand to signal her not to mind him, she returned to her daydreaming state.

“Still unconscious?”

From Sheral’s sleeping position, Jiang Qiao deduced that the girl must be having a nightmare… and it didn’t seem like she would wake up anytime soon.

“We haven’t recruited her yet,” Mo Shigui’s voice rang in Jiang Qiao’s ear. The president of the Dancing Nuclear Guild had logged on at 6:30 in the morning.

You should know… the campaign against the Heavenly Frost Dragon had ended at two in the morning, and he had only slept for four hours.

That’s being too dedicated… no, that’s slacking off too much.

Mo Shigui’s profession was as a coach for the Dancing Nuclear Club; for him, being the guild president was just part of playing the game.

“Lao Song, look at how he’s not bothering with his own wife and went to sleep instead, right? Honestly, it’s better to play less of Holy Spirit during the summer season,” Laughing Brother said.

Jiang Qiao and Mo Shigui had not had the chance to say a word yet, when Lin Xi’s voice came from behind them.

This made Mo Shigui and Jiang Qiao turn around at the same time to look back. Zhao Mingwei and Lin Xi, as well as Yelena, who lost a translucent red heart with every step she took, were all there.

“My god, Lao Song, aren’t you afraid that your Weibo will be blasted by haters?” Lin Xi really had a headache upon seeing Mo Shigui.

Dancing Nuclear Guild had a game the day after tomorrow as well, and it was already quite outrageous for Mo Shigui to lead the elite raid group to hunt the Heavenly Frost Dragon; now, he had logged on again less than four hours after logging off.

Lin Xi remembered that Mo Shigui was supposed to be someone with strong self-discipline, more than Zhao Mingwei.

“Afraid, so don’t leak out the news of me logging on,” Mo Shigui said.

Zhao Mingwei was the type who didn’t look at Weibo or forums at all; his Weibo was managed by officials and all the posts were official too.

Mo Shigui was different; he and Lin Xi both browsed Weibo and forums, but Mo Shigui only scrolled through and seldom commented, whereas Lin Xi was the kind of person who would anonymously battle with haters on forums for three days and nights.

“Can you guys be a little more professional? But I’m also no one to talk, playing Holy Spirit at six-thirty in the morning,” Lin Xi admitted that he had no place dictating how other team’s professional players should behave.

“I logged on to see the version update, and also to discuss the development of our stronghold and perhaps the game’s progress,” Mo Shigui’s statement piqued Jiang Qiao’s interest.

Among the players Jiang Qiao had encountered, Mo Shigui was the one with the most decisive opinions. While other players followed the game updates, Mo Shigui speculated on the game’s developmental trends to plan ahead.

“Is this something from the new version update?” Mo Shigui squatted down to pick up the red heart that fell from Yelena.

“Mas… Master, isn’t my little red heart something that only you can pick up?” Yelena hid behind Zhao Mingwei and stared at Mo Shigui.

In Dancing Nuclear Guild, the person Yelena feared the most was Mo Shigui, partly because her teacher, Denghis Xisi, had once destroyed the Dancing Nuclear’s stronghold.

Therefore, Yelena always felt guilty towards all the members of Dancing Nuclear, and the second reason was that Mo Shigui’s character appearance was altogether too terrifying.

Other Holy Spirit players either dressed in flashy suits, as flamboyantly as possible, or wore unicorn headgear, of the type who would still be a fool in the next life.

Players like Mo Shigui, who were dressed properly in the Black Dragon Armor set without any special fashion effects, were truly… very rare.

“According to the settings, others should be able to pick it up too.”

Zhao Mingwei glanced at his inventory. Along the way, Yelena had constantly been producing those semi-transparent red hearts. It wasn’t until she saw Mo Shigui that she finally stopped, and the hundreds of red hearts scattered on the ground were collected into Zhao Mingwei’s inventory, totalling exactly three hundred—a hundred per set, meaning he had collected three sets.

Zhao Mingwei wasn’t sure what these heaps of red hearts could be exchanged for, but if they were so easy to collect, they probably couldn’t be traded for anything valuable. He just didn’t know the collection efficiency of other players.

“Affection? An NPC’s favorability reward item?” Mo Shigui flipped the semi-transparent red heart, wondering why, as he looked at Yelena’s little hearts, he always felt Fureya was staring at him from the side.

When Mo Shigui raised his head to look at his own Fureya, he found her still silently staring at Sheral, who was sleeping on the bed.

An illusion?

“Guild Leader, have you seen all the updates for 2.0?”

Little Feather also logged in at that moment. As one of the few external members of Dancing Nuclear, Little Feather was immersed in Holy Spirit all day and had no issues with building houses.

“I checked with my phone before logging on. What we need to note is the pre-launch of the pet system. But what exactly is this NPC affection reward system?”

As the president responsible for developing Dancing Nuclear Guild in Holy Spirit, Mo Shigui had to focus not only on the development of the guild but also on the improvement of individual equipment and strength of its members.

Just like when the Battle of Divinity instance was released, he had to ensure that every member of his elite strategy team had a full set of Knight armors, perfectly crafted.

Only with such top-end gear could they compete with the other seven major guilds, ensuring they weren’t left behind in the scramble for game resources.

After the release of the Biland Island expansion pack, competition between guilds also transformed to a competition of stronghold construction, but the problem was…

“It’s the materialization of NPC’s favorability, maybe the game officials thought that players grinding high favorability from NPCs without any reward was boring?” Little Feather speculated on the game designers’ thinking.

Congratulations! You’ve guessed… only a small part, Jiang Qiao silently critiqued from the side.
