Jiang Hua waited for nearly two hours before she saw the avatar of the great god Gu light up, and her heart began to pound with nervousness.
Jiang Hua quickly typed out a line of text on the computer.
[Chat] [Di Ruhua]: Hey! Great God!
[Chat] [YiGu]: What's up?
[Chat] [Di Ruhua]: Actually...it's nothing much, I just wanted to ask you, do you ever feel lonely fighting monsters alone...?
[Chat] [A Glance]: Not Lonely
[Chat] [Di Ruhua]: Will it be particularly difficult to beat a certain level?
[Chat] [A Glance]: Not strenuous
[Chat] [Di Ruhua]: ...
[Chat] [YiGu]: What's wrong?
[Chat] [A Glance]: Are you lonely or unable to complete the game?
[Chat] [Di Ruhua]:………
[Chat] [Di Ruhua]: I... well, I guess... so, great master, would you like to team up with me to fight some monsters?
[Chat] [A Glance]: Are you alone?
[Chat] [Di Ruhua]: No, no, no, there are also people from my guild. It's much more lively when everyone plays together, hahaha
Jiang Hua smiled awkwardly, her heart pounding with anxiety. After a few minutes, she thought, "Hey? Why isn't he replying? Does he think I'm stupid and won't play with me? No, my skills aren't bad... Why isn't he replying? Does this pro player have to be so aloof?" Jiang Hua was practically putting on a dramatic show for herself in her mind, as if she were a little white flower swaying in the wind and rain, and the pro player was the warm, unattainable bed she longed for.
Five more minutes passed, and Jiang Hua sighed... This... counts as a failed invitation, right?
[Chat] [Yi Gu]: I had something to do just now, let's team up now.
The expert's words rekindled Jiang Hua's confidence.
[Chat] [Di Ruhua]: Okay!!! (Stars twinkling)
Ahhhhhh! The genius agreed! The genius is so kind! Jiang Hua almost wanted to hug and kiss her computer.
[Gang] [Di Ruhua]: Friends! Come quick! We've got a pro player in our party!!
The gang's chat channel immediately exploded.
[Gang] [Silent Reading]: Gang Leader! You're amazing! You actually managed to get a date!
[Gang] [Emperor's Little Dwarf]: Our guild leader is truly irresistible! It seems our 'Beautiful Country' guild really has a chance to get 'Alice's Miracle'.
[Gang] [The Emperor of the Dwarf]: Sure, maybe my wife and I can even get a couple's scepter!
[Gang] [First Dream of Spring and Summer]: Reject this dog food!
[Gang] [Silent Reading]: After thinking about it, I realized that Master Gu isn't aloof at all. I should have invited him earlier, hehe.
After reading the comments from the gang members and observing their fawning manner, Jiang Hua sighed and wondered: Was I just being quite shameless?
Hmm... whatever, as long as the goal is achieved.
[Gang] [Di Ruhua]: Let's hurry up and form a team before Yi Gu changes his mind!
[Gang] (in unison): Yes!
[Team] [Emperor's Little Dwarf]: Great God, Great God, we're here!
[Team] [Silent Reading]: Master Yi Gu, which one should we attack?
[Team] [The Little Emperor]: How about we fight the Fire Ape level? It's always hard to withstand its ultimate attack at the end.
[Team] [Emperor's Little Dwarf]: But Monkey King is a bit tough to beat...
[Team] [Yi Gu]: Di Ruhua, what do you think?
The Fiery Ape is the final boss in the volcanic lava cave. Getting into the cave is incredibly difficult; countless fiery apes attack the player along the way, and the level resets every ten minutes. The more times it resets, the higher the apes' health becomes, meaning it gets even harder. This also means players shouldn't take too long to complete the level, as this increases the difficulty. However, the most insane boss is the Fiery Ape, the final boss of the volcanic cave. Not only does it have a huge amount of health, but when it's down to only 500 HP, it unleashes its ultimate attack, relentlessly targeting the player with the highest combat power. So, if the strongest member of the team is killed, how can the rest of the team possibly defeat the berserk Fiery Ape?
Jiang Hua silently thought to herself: Why are you asking me? Hmm, the Fiery Ape is indeed a bit difficult to defeat. It's good that it's challenging, it's good to see how the pros play.
[Team] [First Dream Spring and Summer]: Xiao Hua, what's wrong?
[Party] [Di Ruhua]: Nothing, I was just thinking about something. Let's fight the Fiery Ape then!
[Team] [Yi Gu]: Okay, everyone follow me, remember to turn on voice chat.
Everyone quickly turned on their voice chat. Since they had all played games together before, they remembered each other's voices, so it wasn't too awkward or distant. But Jiang Hua felt that Gu Yi's voice sounded strange, and she couldn't help but associate it with Gu Yiming.
"No, no, I already asked Gu Yiming last time. With his icy face, why would he bother to lie to me? I'm just overthinking it." Jiang Hua shook her head, trying to focus on the game and not think about those messy things.
The volcanic lava where the Fire Apes live is extremely hot. If a player character were to walk in like that, they would definitely be burned by the flames.
[Team] [Emperor's Little Dwarf]: Everyone, please gather together. I'll have my Ice Crack Bird give everyone a Ice Temperature Blessing, otherwise we'll keep losing health in this high temperature.
