Chapter 82 Why aren’t the players from the British Empire speaking?
"Hello, Charles."
The moment Lin Jiu responded, Charles felt his heartbeat quicken a lot.
"Why do you call me an angel?"
There is no doubt that Lin Jiu is interested in Charles.
Charles wasn't surprised to hear this question. He smiled and explained, "Can you understand this as my nickname for you? Of course, if you don't like it, I can change it."
Charles's enthusiasm is very similar to the stereotype of Westerners on the Internet.
"As you wish, of course..." Lin Jiu paused. He looked at Charles, tilted his head slightly, and smiled, "It's better to call friends by their names, don't you think, Charles?"
Charles paused for a moment when he heard this.
"certainly!"
Lin Jiu smiled and said nothing more.
No one noticed that the focus in his eyes was temporarily lost.
[He seems to have developed faith in you. Rather than calling him a fan, perhaps the term "believer" would be more appropriate.]
The moment Lin Jiu saw Charles, a prompt popped up.
The word "believer" instantly caught Lin Jiu's attention.
At this time, Ivan slowly walked over.
During the conversation between Lin Jiu and Charles, his heart calmed down a lot.
Eugene followed behind Ivan. When he saw Charles and Lin Jiu talking, he took the initiative to find Ivan.
Seeing this, Charles quietly stepped aside to make room for conversation.
The game hasn't started yet, and he doesn't plan to use up all his preparation time talking to Lin Jiu.
Ivan and Eugene nodded politely, as both a greeting and a thank you.
Charles returned a polite smile.
The representative players of the four major countries are in the same frame. If Hicks is here, it can be called perfect.
"Hello, I'm Ivan Kolifensky Ivanov."
Ivan smiled and held out his hand.
"Hello, Ivan, nice to meet you." Lin Jiu smiled and shook hands back.
Then he looked at Eugene who was standing next to Ivan.
When the latter saw him looking at him, he just stretched out his hand and said his name lightly.
Unlike Ivan, who has a cheerful personality, Eugene is obviously much more restrained, which is in line with his cautious style of doing things.
"What a surprise! I thought we wouldn't meet until after this game was over." Ivan laughed. "Although... well, I don't mean to create negativity, but I really wasn't sure if I'd be able to see you alive, so this surprise is really a pleasant surprise."
Eugene nodded silently.
In fact, almost all players have this idea.
"Haha, after seeing you, I'm not even afraid of those damn weird things anymore."
Ivan was telling the truth. Lin Jiu made people feel safe just by standing there.
This was clearly their first time meeting and their first time participating in a multiplayer dungeon.
"Really? I'm very happy to make you feel this way." Lin Jiu said with a smile.
"Hey, I'm the one who should say thank you."
While the few of them had a brief exchange, they gained a preliminary understanding of each other's personalities.
Lin Jiu's current state is the same as he appears. He is friendly to others and always has a smile on his face that makes people not wary. He speaks softly, and it is difficult to associate him with the man who beat up the weird guy.
Ivan is a typical extrovert with a familiar manner. His voice, smile and conversation give people a very refreshing feeling. Perhaps because of his bad temper, he speaks directly and does not express anything in a euphemistic way.
Eugene is the opposite of Ivan. He doesn't like to talk much and his voice is a little low, but he is not introverted. He is just taciturn and always speaks with a sharp tone.
Charles spoke very little. He always kept a polite smile while standing aside, and did not give people a sense of hypocrisy. His voice and tone when speaking were also very comfortable. He was obviously a person who was good at observation and caring about other people's emotions. His eyes would also follow the person who was speaking, giving people a very focused feeling.
The four of them were having a pleasant conversation, giving people the illusion that they were not in a dangerous world of ghost stories.
The other players standing by just watched, with no chance to join in at all.
But fortunately they have not been forgotten.
When Lin Jiu took the initiative to call them to his side, these players looked like they were about to cry.
"Look there."
Eugene pointed to a spot near the entrance of the supermarket.
Looking in the direction he pointed, I could see an electronic watch hanging there.
There's a clear countdown above.
Five minutes left.
"Looks like it's time for the players to prepare," Charles said.
Eugene nodded. "Maybe it's because this is the first multiplayer game, the game system is very considerate of the players in this regard."
At the end, Eugene sneered.
Everyone present knew what Eugene was referring to.
Even Ivan, who was a little slow in this area, could hear it.
"Then let's hurry up and discuss what to do next." Charles put away his smile and looked serious. "Multiplayer dungeons are also divided into different types. It doesn't look like a simple cooperative dungeon."
"As for the work copies, they will probably be assigned to different positions."
At this time, the only female player among the players spoke.
It's Yuka Kamatsu from the Land of Sakura.
Lin Jiu glanced at her, then nodded, agreeing with Kamatsu Yuka's words.
"This will most likely limit players from helping each other." Lin Jiu said, touching his chin.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of several players changed instantly.
"Not surprising," Charles shrugged.
As a novice player, his mentality was too good, which made Ivan and Eugene couldn't help but look at him a little more.
Apart from Ivan, Charles is probably the most special player.
It’s okay to be a player without hesitation, but I don’t feel nervous at all after becoming a player.
Inexplicably, he is a bit similar to the original Lin Jiu.
He looks like a big boss at first glance.
Charles noticed the other people's gazes. He looked at them, puzzled:
"Don't you know?"
"What?" Ivan asked subconsciously.
Charles raised his eyebrows and said, "Players will inherit the [Legacy] of the previous player. This mechanism is friendly to some new players who come later."
This is new information.
Several players looked at each other, but Lin Jiu didn't react much.
At the same time, the real-life ghost story research department also took note of this new information.
"Still have to be careful," Eugene said.
Ivan nodded, "The difficulty of the dungeon is increasing."
Charles didn't feel overconfident just because he inherited Jack's legacy. Sensing the worry in Ivan and Eugene's words, he said, "I know where this is."
Eugene and Ivan nodded in relief.
Although they had just met, it was always reassuring to know that their companions were still alive and around in a multiplayer dungeon.
Lin Jiu said at this time: "When it's dangerous, I will help, if possible."
