Chapter 944 AS174: It's you, Tetris!
Yu Xunge quickly found something resembling a game joystick that she had found next to the bookshelf while gathering information earlier. She turned it left and right, and the falling block moved left and right accordingly.
Next to the joystick is a small square button shaped like a book. Every time she presses it, the square rotates 90 degrees clockwise.
At this time, a few players who knew about the game, like Yu Xunge, were trying it out, while those who had never played the game before were all focused on observing these players who seemed to know how to play.
Yu Xunge explained her guess and how to play the game to several teammates in the team channel.
But these were all just speculations, and neither of them rushed to participate.
Once it's confirmed that arranging blocks in a row will indeed eliminate them, the gameplay becomes quite clear.
The special design of the game arena meant that Yu Xunge and the other teams who knew how to play could not hide their every move from the other apprentices.
The game wasn't difficult to play. The moment they figured out how to play, the other apprentices who had been observing them also understood.
All the apprentices' eyes were fixed on the bouncing book monsters below.
As it stands, this game seems to work as it is, but the block above the book monster's head is definitely useful.
Just then, a gray, brick-like square strip suddenly appeared in the middle of all the bookshelves, and it was fixed there like a bookshelf.
The gray square that appeared in the middle of Yu Xunge's bookshelf was a "Γ".
It blocked the middle, precisely blocking another "convex" shaped block "┻" that had fallen halfway. Even though Yu Xunge quickly pushed the joystick to the left, he couldn't move the falling "convex" shaped block.
The gray square appeared too suddenly.
Now all the apprentices understood the purpose of the blocks above the monsters' heads below; 99.99% of them were there to eliminate these gray bricks!
Yu Xunge manipulated the joystick to make the blocks falling from the bookshelf avoid the stone in the middle, and said, "I don't know how often these gray bricks appear. Let's split into three groups. Two people go down to break the blocks. If new ones appear later, two more people will go down. Leave one person here to control the blocks and keep an eye out for any unexpected changes."
Queque said, "Okay."
The group consisted of people with decisive and efficient personalities. After a few hand gestures, they quickly agreed on the group assignments.
The Grapefruit and Crab Clan, the Song Seeker and Missing Clan, and the Rhythm Group, which can summon undead pets, are temporarily a solo group.
Then adjust flexibly according to the speed at which the blocks are hit.
After making the decision, Crab and Grapefruit went down to fight the monsters.
Yu Xunge, Queque, and Yu Lu silently looked at the water-like little crabs and sprouting peas floating by the bookshelf and sneered in unison.
Queque shook her head: "It's truly disheartening, a disgrace to the Twilight Library and the Island of Exiles."
Xun Ge sighed: "Completely lacking in vision, and they're still acting like senior students and crabs."
Summary of the rhetoric: "If one's actions lack magnanimity, this is how the future will be."
The three of them gave each other a scathing critique and a barrage of criticism, then, feeling satisfied, they exchanged a relieved look.
What is a team? This is what a team is!
After observing the rhythm and manipulating several blocks to confirm that he truly understood the game's mechanics and was quick-witted, Yu Xunge felt temporarily relieved.
They stood on the edge of the stands, looking down at the battlefield below.
The performance area was in chaos, with apprentices from all teams going down to fight monsters.
But the monsters below seem difficult to defeat; several minutes have passed and no one has taken them down yet.
Moreover, the number of monsters is at a very delicate level; it's not few, but not enough for apprentices to share.
There are more than 3,500 bookshelves in the stands, but the number of books in the performance area below is estimated to be less than 3,000.
This resulted in some apprentices wandering around the arena, waiting for an opportunity to steal monsters.
After all, no one can say for sure whether the block will belong to the apprentice who lands the final blow or to the team that deals the most damage.
Just as they had feared, five minutes later, a new gray wall tile suddenly appeared in an empty space on the bookshelf.
This time it's "丨".
Yu Xunge and Queque immediately jumped off the stands and rushed to the performance area to find the book monster with vertical stripes on its head.
Yu Lu, standing by the game joystick, grinned as he looked at the extra humanoid shadow and a magical elemental sprite...
It's chilling, truly chilling.
...
When they left the field, book monsters were already dying one after another, and Crab and Grapefruit had just defeated one of them.
They immediately shared the information in the team group chat.
[Crab]: The block belongs to the player who landed the final blow.
Yu Xunge and Queque turned around and rushed towards the book monster that was closest to them and had been reduced to low health by the other apprentices.
As soon as I started playing Yu Xun Ge, I knew why he was so difficult to beat.
These monsters, the size of ordinary books, are not only highly agile and have thick health bars, but they also switch to new traits every 10 seconds.
Sometimes it's maximum resistance to lightning, sometimes it's immunity to physical damage, and sometimes it's complete immunity to magical damage.
Occasionally, it will also have the annoying feature of "taking damage will turn into double healing".
But what bothers Yu Xunge the most is why her [Nemesis] hasn't been triggered yet?
It was triggered in the same game when I was learning the skill in the game's waiting area.
She clearly saw Maple Syrup fighting monsters below the stands while she was watching the match from the stands.
She frowned and glanced around, then, through hundreds of apprentices and flying books, her eyes met those of Maple Syrup, who was also looking at her.
At that very moment, the effect of [Nemesis] was triggered!
Ah... so it's not just about being nearby, you also need to make eye contact for it to work, why didn't you say so earlier?
The significance of such a rivalry is self-evident.
The two looked away.
As Yu Xunge charged forward with his dagger, he also used his newly acquired skill – [The Wind Doesn't Speak].
The battlefield is never short of wind.
The wind from wielding weapons, the wind generated by skill strikes, the wind stirred up by apprentices' movements, the wind from pages fluttering in the wind...
After it was born, these wisps of wind drew invisible arcs in the air, turned, and blew towards Yu Xunge.
It brought her one buff after another.
Strength +5%, Healing Skill Effect +2%, Magic Damage +3%, Movement Speed +2%, Skill Cooldown Reduction +2%, Luck +0.3, Critical Strike Damage +1%, Lifesteal +1%, Defense +200...
Although all of them have been reduced, there are still a total of 500 buffs, and when stacked up, the effect is extremely amazing.
This is far superior to the buff she received after 24 hours of simply idling around after activating the "Waste Guide," since her SS-level "Waste Guide" can only activate 10 buffs, and the same type cannot be stacked.
This skill is really good, and unlike the Crab, it doesn't make a wind chime sound every time it's used.
But the world is not lacking in perceptive people, especially those like Queque, who are born into a world of celestial phenomena.
She grinned, showing her fangs, and asked, "What did you take from me?"
Yu Xunge answered seriously, "Happiness."
Queque: "...How dare you say I'm not popular with people when you have such an annoying personality? Do you really have any friends? Oh, sorry, I almost forgot, you don't."
The fat goose, who was chasing the book monster, happened to hear this and immediately shouted, "Mist Blade started this chaos and then abandoned it!"
The motorcycle repeats: "The fog blade started with chaos and was ultimately abandoned!"
In the brief moment between Yu Xunge's spinning attack, he stabbed the fat goose with his dagger and kicked the motorcycle: "Get lost!"
