Chapter 27 Bai Ye: Are you really going to take the exam without preparation?
After the afternoon classes, there was two hours of club activities. Youyu pulled Bai Ye and walked in front, jogging all the way until they reached the top floor of the teaching building and then slowed down.
"No matter what you think, we'll be teammates for the next year. Let me show you the secret base of our Squid Detective Agency!"
You Yu pushed open the fire door leading to the top floor of the teaching building, and even automatically added a sound for the overall gorgeousness: "dangdang——"
The boy opened the door and saw an open rooftop outside the fire door. In the corner of the rooftop was a simple sunshade building with a roof and exterior walls. Five or six chairs and stacked materials were placed in the bookcase against the wall. It did not look like a club discussion place, but more like a study room with a very decorative feel.
"This is our paradise for discussing cases during break time!"
You Yu pointed at the half-open door, opened it and rolled directly onto the sofa chair which looked very soft. The floor of the club room was filled with soft lazy sofas and dumpling pillows. The dumpling pillows were of different colors with cute Q-version facial expressions, namely silver, gold and green, which seemed to correspond exactly to the colors of the three members of the Squid Detective Agency.
Bai Ye's eyes moved around, and he even saw a blue ball in the corner that looked like himself, decorated with a black halo, but with no facial expression yet.
"This was all designed by Sister Linglan! Come, sit down quickly!" Youyu threw her dumpling pillow to Baiye. Linglan looked at them with a smile. Baiye was stunned for a moment. After he caught the dumpling steadily, he looked down and saw a cute expression with squinting eyes like a greater than or less than sign.
It's exactly the same as Youyu's usual behavior...
Bai Ye suddenly felt that the air around him seemed to be filled with the scent of cream and honey. He began to secretly plan for You Yu in his heart again.
"Ahem, let's talk business first. The Huogu game has ended. There are still five days before the official start of the competition. Starting from today, we can do some temporary training."
Bai Ye coughed twice to hide his embarrassment. Although it was his first time in this "secret base", he somehow found the remote control of the projection screen among the messy pillows and stacked copies of books and materials. He turned on the projection screen, and the white electronic screen slowly descended and landed in the middle of the club activity room. Bai Ye connected the Bluetooth to his mobile phone, and the iconic icon of the Garden of Eden with an olive branch appeared in the center of the screen.
Bai Ye's voice revealed a strong sense of fatigue: "Let me see how much you need to make up for..."
Linglan shook her head carelessly: "It doesn't matter. We have enough experience and we promise that we won't make it too hard for you, dear commander."
Bai Ye smiled bitterly: "It's better this way."
He swiped a few times on his phone, and the large screen of the projection screen quickly turned into a video with a cover of the world's urban circle distribution map. The publisher was actually the only true god who truly had the right to speak on the Garden of Eden app - the DM system.
"First, we must immediately understand our competitors. The season of [Reunion] is quite special. Our enemies are not only demons, but also participants from other city circles. We must get the most points within the limited season time to win each game."
Bai Ye sighed. Just the troublesome multiplayer rules alone made him feel overwhelmed. "You are much more familiar with the demons and apostles than I am. Let's put that aside for now. Let's first understand the strongest opponents from other cities that we need to face if we want to win the game."
The Squid Detective Agency's Demon Game live broadcast spans more than several years, but their scope of activity has always been Night City, and they have never been involved in related games in other city circles. When they are broadcasting live, they don't seem to be familiar with the Demon Game players in other city circles. At present, the first thing that needs to be improved is not tacit understanding and overall combat awareness, but the understanding of information about competitors.
"Then what is this--" Shuise looked at the video on the projection screen in confusion. Linglan has always been in charge of the online account. His understanding of the Garden of Eden is still that it is an information exchange app for demon game players built by the DM system.
"This is a video edited by the DM system. The star players who have been on the monthly updated S, A, B, and C rankings for many years are also the most competitive players in the [Reunion] season. This video is the most direct way to understand the high-quality players in other city circles."
Bai Ye turned his head and saw the three members of the Squid Detective Agency who looked confused. Several boys and girls of the same age sat up straight as if facing a teacher, but their expressions were all confused.
Bai Ye felt his phone start to heat up: "...You guys are not going to... just go up and attack without knowing any information about your competitors, right?"
Three members of the Squid Detective Agency: “…”
Bai Ye was horrified: "You guys are not really going to attack without knowing anything about your competitors, right?"
He thought that the Squid Detective Agency's team was not as professional as those in other city circles. After all, they were just a neutral game player organization, unlike the professionals like Jade who were trained as successors of law enforcers since childhood in other city circles. He also knew that the Squid Detective Agency had always believed in the "lucky tactics". In short, they just rushed in and got it done. They had no idea how a normal team with a commander operated.
But he didn't expect that even when facing a grand competition like [Reunion], they really planned to play without knowing their opponents or the situation?
Bai Ye hissed, "I remember that the four types of players in the S-rank, A-rank, and C-rank all have groups. Haven't you ever joined a group?"
The DM system in Eden will use the collected data to rank players according to a comprehensive evaluation of win rate, number of games, and skill rarity. The top ten players in each of the four major types are called S-list players, the top 11-50 are A-list players, the top 51-100 are B-list players, and the top 101-200 are C-list players.
In the current Squid Detective Agency, except for Bai Ye who temporarily has insufficient points because he has only participated in two Devil Games, You Yu is an OB type S10 player, Shuise is an auxiliary type A13, and Linglan is a main attack type A11. Logically, they should all have joined the advanced player forum group organized by the DM official.
Shuise and Linglan were still confused: "It is true that there was, but we thought..."
The two looked at each other, and wiped their cheeks with their fingers in embarrassment: "They are scammers who want to get money, so we just ignored them, haha."
Bai Ye: ...The black in front of you is not black, so what is the white you are talking about?
But he quickly comforted himself: It doesn't matter, not understanding others means that other players don't understand them either, so some fight and some fight.
The black-haired boy pursed his lips and said without hope: "May I ask, what is your understanding of command..."
You Yu put on his professional innocent smile, trying to get away with it, but Bai Ye pinned him down by following the same action he had done before.
"Okay, I roughly understand..." Bai Ye pinched his brows with a headache and clicked the play button of the video: "You guys take a look first, and you will probably have a general understanding of the players of the entire demon game."
To be honest, although DM's position is unclear, its editing skills are indeed superb. Star players from many city circles such as Night Island, Night City, Manchester City, Ink City, etc. appeared one by one with their best and most eye-catching performances under the passionate BGM.
Facing the attack of the demon-level devil, You Yu showed a confident smile, and the golden clover was like a dazzling galaxy. All the energy bullets fired by the demon god deviated from their direction for some reason, and everyone was firmly protected.
Shuise raised the bow, and ripples of water bloomed in the sky. Shuise was completely immersed in the sonata of music. The pleasant music resounded, and an ice-crystal-like sphere bloomed, blocking all the attacks of the devil.
Lily of the Valley's fork fell heavily, throwing the devil's followers out with it, knocking them down like a bowling game. The quiet girl held the bronze fork, but her brows showed the aura of "one man against ten thousand troops".
The players of Night Island are all like shadows in the dark. Even if you use the slow motion edited by the DM system to observe them, you can only see fluttering blood-red butterflies. The players of Manchester City are full of fairy-tale colors, which makes people feel good just by observing them. The City of Ink is like the underworld in mythology, with huge feathered serpents falling from the sky and surrounding the gray-haired girl.
...As soon as each player appears on the screen, barrages of comments will overlap like an ocean. The outstanding players who are commonly seen at the top of the list basically have a large number of fans. If the barrage filter is not turned off, Bai Ye can't even see the picture on the screen clearly.
[It's so sad, this video has gathered all the powerful rookies who participated in the reunion competition, all of them are god-level devil game players! 】
[Gold will always shine, but the reunion is even more magnificent. Welcome to the feast of monsters]
【genius? Who here is not a genius? Genius is just the ticket here]
[The Hall of Stars, the most powerful force in humankind, is just this]
…
Bai Ye used the video to help the Squid Detective Agency "open their eyes" to the world outside Night City. After establishing a complete system of demon game players, the familiar Eden prompt bell rang, interrupting the detective agency's remedial lessons.
You Yu: "Actually, I've been wanting to complain for a long time. The bell of the DM system sounds like a copy of the Westminster school bell."
No one paid any attention to Youyu. Everyone else looked at their phones at the same time, only to see that the DM system had sent out a new notification.
[The first warm-up match of the “Reunion” points race is about to begin! Please plan in time for all teams and solo players! 】
Bai Ye took a quick look at the notification sent by the DM system and began to plan naturally without realizing it: "Each season's competition system is divided into official competitions and warm-up matches. All performances are awarded game points by the DM system according to their contribution. According to the previous competition system, the warm-up match should be an individual competition. So the question is, who will play?"
You Yu also quite naturally acquiesced that Bai Ye would be in charge of the planning. He thought for a moment and put forward his own idea: "Let's draw lots. It's good to draw lots."
Linglan took out three dice from her pocket and immediately wanted to throw them: "Okay, it's exciting enough, I like it, come on!"
Bai Ye said with a wooden face, "What? Please choose your curse? Don't get excited yet. There is another notification below. Read the DM's notice before you make trouble."
The black-haired boy opened the information bar in another dialog box while speaking, and saw that it contained the relevant prompt information about the token that the demon apostles had been thinking about.
[In the first season of Reunion, the location of the Ten Commandments token is: knife. 】
"knife?"
The boys looked at each other and saw disbelief in each other's eyes.
On the other side, there is the "Okay Burger" hamburger shop.
It was not yet the evening rush hour, and there were only a few people scattered in the store. Fang Kuai stood in front of the counter, quietly wiping the cash register. Various nutritional recipes were displayed on the iPad beside him. He looked up and saw a strange guest covered in a black robe standing in front of him.
Cube frowned, lifted the other person's hood, and the next second after seeing the burning skeleton, he pushed the hood back as if he saw nothing.
The famous hamburger chain now welcomes a guest named Huogu.
"Why are you here?"
Fang Kuai frowned: "Are you still here so carelessly?"
Huo Gu looked dazed. He looked at the bill and said in a rhythmic tone, "I want this double-thick cheese burger!"
A pound sign appeared on Fangkui's forehead. "Huo Gu... are you really coming to eat? Don't you know that I was almost suspected before I went undercover? It was very hard, right?"
Fang Kuai frowned, looking like he was going crazy: "I finally regained the trust of the law enforcers, do you want to destroy me?"
Huo Gu knew he was in the wrong and waved his hands repeatedly: "I have reasons, I have reasons!"
Cube rolled his eyes. “You’d better have a valid reason. It’s not some ridiculous reason that you want to eat a burger today.”
Huo Gu cursed: "Wait for me to finish, the high school student in your store is the student that Sun has been hiding recently, who is immune to all tag skills and demonic power!"
