Chapter 83
After Xiaoman disappeared through the white door, Yitu turned to look at Xu Heng.
The man frowned slightly, and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.
"They're probably just minions from the Hunting Team. Don't pay any attention to them."
Yitu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
"Let's go."
As soon as they left the card room, they saw Hu Zaozao sitting on the sofa. She wanted to come out quickly.
When she saw everyone coming out, she quickly brought out chilled fruits and drinks.
"Everyone, you've worked hard. Come and take a break." Hu Zaozao said with a smile.
Yitu took it and said thank you.
It was not yet lunch time when they came out. You Ke and Ou Cheng were not in the villa, so they were most likely in the card room.
Gu Yongnian had told them early in the morning that he was going to visit a good friend in Kanazawa City and would not be back until around dinner time.
Yitu had been resting in the room for a while when he heard some noise coming from downstairs.
Ou Cheng and You Ke came out of the card room.
Hu Zaozao was discussing with You Ke what had just happened in the card room, while Ou Cheng went upstairs without saying a word.
Opposite Yi Tu's room was Xu Heng's room. After reading the basic member information of the Curiosity Team, he originally wanted to talk to Xu Heng.
But it's clear that someone is one step ahead of him now.
Although Ou Cheng's footsteps were heavy, his knock on the door was light.
He knocked only twice and waited patiently for Xu Heng to open the door.
It was a long time before Yitu heard Xu Heng's impatient voice.
"Come in."
After Ou Cheng entered Xu Heng's room, there was no movement for a long time. Just when Yi Tu thought that the two were talking about something, a sound that sounded like a slap was heard.
Quite crisp.
Yitu was stunned for a moment. Were these two people going to fight?
Just as he was about to open the door and go out to take a look, there was a knock on the door.
Xu Heng's voice came from outside, "Yitu, are you there?"
Yitu thought about it and opened the door.
Only Xu Heng was standing outside the door, with no sign of Ou Cheng. The flush of shame and anger on Xu Heng's face had not yet faded, and his lips were a strangely red.
He saw Yitu's eyes fall on his lips and suddenly smiled.
"Is it beautiful?"
Yitu looked at him in confusion. What was so good about him? He wasn't gay.
He let the person in and asked:
"Did you two have a fight?"
Judging from Xu Heng's behavior, the person who was beaten was probably Ou Cheng.
Xu Heng sat casually on the chair, "Did you hear anything?"
"He was mad, so I did it."
Yitu nodded in understanding, "Be gentler next time. It would be terrible if outsiders heard it."
Xu Heng choked, "No...you misunderstood!"
"never mind...."
He looked at Yitu and suddenly smiled.
"You are not an outsider. I have never treated you as an outsider."
Yitu was happy when he heard this.
"It's not appropriate to be my wife. I already have a wife." Yitu said with a smile.
Xu Heng was teased by him and a look of annoyance appeared on his face.
"I haven't heard you mention your partner. If he or she looks good but is not practical, it's better to replace him or her as soon as possible." Xu Heng also retorted with a smile.
"But isn't it a bit hasty for you to tie up your spouse now?"
When Xu Heng asked this question, the smile on his face disappeared completely. He was seriously considering it.
"Throne players rarely tie their spouses together. I hope the one you tied up doesn't become a real problem in the future."
When Yitu heard this, he suddenly remembered Jiang Hanyu's handsome face and couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips slightly.
However, who is the troublemaker is still debatable.
"Maybe."
When Xu Heng saw Yi Tu's expression, his curiosity was instantly piqued.
"Chen Hao and Lu Nan both said that you are a strong man. Is he on the list?"
Yitu almost didn't react, and said helplessly: "What do you mean my man?"
"My relationship with his spouse is a bit complicated...By the way, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
It was hard to tell what the relationship between him and Jiang Hanyu was, and Yi Tu was too lazy to dwell on it too much.
Xu Heng then remembered the purpose of his visit, and said:
"I told Ou Cheng about the incident when we met the extra-members of the Lieqi Team at the card game."
"Everything you did in the poker room...I'm afraid that the outside editor will send it to the King of Clubs in the form of a video."
"To be honest, our luck is pretty bad."
Yitu did not deny it. In fact, in the card room, as long as one player recognized his identity, it would be equivalent to everyone knowing his basic information.
Although Plum King and he have almost no intersection, even the Nightingale Team and the Curiosity Team he leads have no conflict of interest.
But for new throne players, it is bound to attract bloodthirsty beasts.
As soon as Yitu came out of the card field, he searched for the King of Clubs on the forum. The information that popped up on the forum was basically related to his team, with very little personal information.
The nickname of the King of Clubs is the Night King, also known as the Undead. He is a god-level apostle card with almost unstoppable regeneration and repair abilities.
This card will absorb damage without limit. The higher the damage the holder suffers, the stronger the repair ability will be.
So far, the limit has not been reached.
And the Night King's divine card has never revealed its fatal weakness.
There are many posts about the King of Clubs on the forum, almost all of which appear with other high-level players.
He was once hit by the Grip of Judgment of the Great Demon King Spade, and was almost turned into a puddle of mud, but his terrifying regenerative ability still allowed him to survive.
Although that time, he almost couldn't recover.
This was also the only time the two men fought each other.
The King of Clubs has played against the King of Hearts more times, and the two are evenly matched.
Even though the King of Hearts possesses a divine card that can inhibit the growth of any thing or life form, it can only delay the Night King's repair ability to a limited extent.
The secret of the Night King's regeneration does not lie in the destruction of any organ in his body.
So far, this has been an unresolved topic.
"Do you think the Night King will take my ID card?" Yi Tu lowered his eyes.
Xu Heng said: "It's not impossible, and..."
"I forgot to tell you that the Night King has a very unique quirk."
When Xu Heng said this, a strange look appeared on his face.
Yitu: “Hmm?”
"Do you know why his team is called Lieqi?" Xu Heng looked into Yitu's eyes and said word by word:
"The Night King likes to collect all kinds of players that he thinks are special."
"Find them, tame them, and collect them."
“Like little animals.”
Yitu was stunned when he heard this.
How did Xu Heng know this? There wasn't a single post on the forum about the Night King's hobby.
"You..." Yitu tried to speak, but didn't know how to say it.
Unexpectedly, Xu Heng admitted it himself:
"It's just as you think. I was once one of the people he favored."
Yitu remained silent. This was probably the reason why Xu Heng was targeted so harshly in the card game.
"But I'm smart and I run fast."
Xu Hengdao didn't care much about his past, even though the Night King did show great interest in his Apostle Card and even extended an olive branch.
But after Xu Heng refused, the Night King did not insist on it for too long, but he was somewhat angry at Xu Heng for not knowing what was good for him.
"If you have the chance to meet the members of the Night King's team in the crossover competition, you will know what the situation is."
"They are all monsters."
Yitu frowned slightly when he heard this, "Joint competition? Has our team signed up for the autumn joint competition?"
Xu Heng smiled, "Yes, Gu Yongnian signed up long ago. I don't know what ranking he'll get this year. He still thinks it's not embarrassing enough."
Gambler Game will hold a team joint competition in March and September every year, and any team that meets the level requirements can sign up to participate.
The team captain who registers for the competition needs to pay the competition points for each official member. After entering the linkage competition, the better the individual performance, the higher the personal medal points, and the higher the team points.
The linkage competition will adopt an elimination system. If the teams are at the same level, the teams at the bottom will be eliminated one by one.
In this year's Spring Linkage Tournament, Nightingale only made it to the second round, but was still eliminated.
Teams that fail to meet the minimum requirements for the linkage competition will not only not receive any rewards, but will also have all their paid points deducted.
It would be fine if just some points were deducted, but the most embarrassing thing is that it is a huge loss of face.
When talking about this, Xu Heng gritted his teeth in anger.
"It would be embarrassing to go to the joint competition, bringing two or three burdens with him. I really don't know what Gu Yongnian was thinking."
Since the collaboration competition is a formal team competition, anyone who is a formal member of the team will be required to participate.
Therefore, not only Yi Tu will participate in this autumn competition, but also the weaker Ding Rong and Hu Zaozao will participate.
"When does the linkage competition start?" Yitu asked.
"September 23rd, the day of the Autumnal Equinox." Xu Heng looked into Yi Tu's eyes and said, "We still have more than half a month to prepare."
"I don't want to bring shame upon myself with the Queen of Hearts."
Yitu smiled, "What a coincidence, me too."
Xu Heng's words were no way of reminding him that his title as the Queen of Hearts had spread, and Nightingale was tied to the Queen of Hearts.
If he wants to avoid being embarrassed, then the Nightingale must also not be embarrassed.
Yitu lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, but Xu Heng suddenly said:
"I'm not saying this for Nightingale's sake."
"What?" Yitu looked up at him.
Xu Heng stood up and walked in front of him with a serious expression.
“This is your chance.”
Xu Heng didn't finish his words, but he knew the man understood what he meant.
What kind of person is a nightingale? Anyone with a little ambition should not stay in a stinking ditch and rot slowly.
After Xu Heng left, Yitu looked at his departing back with an unpredictable expression.
The joint competition was about to begin, and Xu Heng told him without hesitation that what Gu Yongnian said about visiting friends was actually just an attempt to win over other teams.
After all, it is a joint competition, and teams can cooperate with each other.
After the registration deadline for the linkage competition, Yitu asked Judith to open the game panel.
He looked down the list and found that except for some teams that were ranked very high and did not need to register, all the other teams that wanted to rank higher had registered.
What surprised Yi Tu the most was that the Demon Fang Team where Jiang Hanyu was was also among them.
You should know that the team that Spade King belongs to has always maintained the first ranking and rarely participates in team collaboration competitions unless there is a conflict of interest between teams.
To the point that they had to compete in the game, as the saying goes, revenge is personal.
Yi Tu didn't think too much about it. Considering the actual situation, it was almost impossible for him and Jiang Hanyu's team to meet.
Because they are not at the same level, they will not be arranged together at all.
This also avoids the possibility of the two people meeting each other, and at least there is no embarrassment.
However, just when Yitu was thinking carefully, a message popped up in front of him.
[Jiang Hanyu: What kind of crappy team is yours? Why is it ranked so low?]
Yitu's expression froze.
【Yitu:?】
What can I do for you? What can I do for you?
