Chapter 561: New Member


Translator: Lonelytree


At 1 am on the 13th of June. Feng Bujue entered Xiao Tan’s conference on time. Like usual, he was the last to arrive of the four (because he was too on time). Currently, this place had become a location similar to the headquarters of superheroes…


The walls had been upgraded into very high tech metallic wall with dark colors, and each walls had decoration of green and blue electric circuit. There were two embedded lights on the ceiling. The original narrow conference table had now been upgraded to an oval table suitable for 6 people. The table had a trumpet shape with a wide top, a narrow middle before flaring out at the bottom which was joined into the floor. Overall, it looked less like a table but more like a work of art. On the other side of the room, there was a set of lavish sofa that could be separated into three different individual seating. There was also a coffee table and at the corner, there was even a fridge…


Other than that, on one wall of the conference room, there was a super big screen, it could be used to play movies (yes, as long as you have bought it, Dream Inc. provided streaming service inside the game. Of course, due to copyright, you have to pay for the movies) or to connect to the projection function of the conference table and one could operate it via touch screen.


“Wow~” Brother Jue was stunned when he entered the room. He thought he had entered the wrong room but one second later, he came to the realization, “Nice decoration.”


“You’re not wrong there… you will never imagine how impressive the furniture store inside this game is.” Xiao Tan who sat on the sofa mumbled bitterly, “Even Ikea in real life is not as big as the place here. Just the ‘catalogue’ at the place was more than 10 pages long, me and Soulie have spent a whole night there before we come up with this decorative style…”


“Hah… is it..” Feng Bujue replied with a smile. “But…” He walked to the sofa and plopped himself down on it and stretched lazily. “Ah~ But at least the sacrifice is worth it.”


“What sacrifice? You have not paid a penny nor have you worked to help with the decoration…” Ruoyu who sat at the side coldly, “What have you sacrificed?”


“Qie.” Feng Bujue huffed back, “That’s the pot calling the kettle back.”


“Actually on the day of purchase, I was tagging along with them.” Ruoyu countered, “But five minutes later, I felt like such a lightbulb so I left to farm some scenarios.”


“Oh…” Feng Bujue turned his head to look at Xiao Tan and Laughing Soul, “The two could not help feeding dogfood in public?”



“Of course not.” Xiao Tan scratched the back of his head and acted dumb. Laughing Soul though chuckled wickedly. “Even if we did, the dogfood won’t be delicious as yours and cousin in real life!” She giggled. “That night… her old schoolmates must be out of their mind, right?”


“You two, rich peoples finally found each other…” Feng Bujue said jokingly, “But you don’t allow we two weirdoes to show off our love once in a while?”


“Who finally found him?” Laughing Soul turned her face around and said derisively.


“And what is this love between us?” Ruyuo narrowed her eyes and shot a sharp gaze at Brother Jue.


“Fine, fine…” Feng Bujue shrugged. “I’ll stop joking. Let’s talk about something serious…” he paused for a second. “A few days ago, I have successfully cleared a team scenario on Nightmare Mode.”


“He… he he…” Xiao Tan laughed drily twice. “In other words, we will have to follow you to enter a Nightmare Mode tonight?”


“That’s right, with a superstar player like myself leading you.” Feng Bujue said with his nose raised up high. “What is there to be worried about?’


“If you continue with this ostentatious gloating, you better be prepared to be killed.” Ruoyu warned with a series tone and icy gaze.


“We are in the same time, you can’t kill me with the system in place…” Brother Jue countered.


“I never did say I will kill you in game.” She added calmly.


“Hmmm.” Feng Bujue instantly took on a serious expression. “Please forgive me!”


“What! The apology came so quickly!” Xiao Tan’s mockery came as quickly too.


Creak—


While they were chatting, the door of the conference room opened again. A thin figure in a dark western coat and a black bowler hat walked into the room.


“Eh? You’re all here.” An Yueqin waved at everyone with a smile. She wore a pair of bright red gloves, complimenting the red tie on her collar.


“Madam editor, why are you dressed up like this?” Feng Bujue asked confusedly.


“He he… This is Doctor Jackal, handsome right?” She used a finger to tip her bowler hat.


“He is supposed to be wearing a fedora hat and the rim is at least twice as large as yours.” Brother Jue replied. “And he is wearing black tie and white gloves.”


“Qie… and who are you to critique me with your lousy cosplay of the Joker?” An Yueqin countered back. “If you are that insistent on authenticity, go and dye your hair green, soak your face in chemical and cut open your cheeks with a knife.”


Feng Bujue shrugged. “Well~ You’re right, of all of us, only someone who wore the Recon Corps uniform is the closest to the original character.”


“I only randomly chose a set of clothes that has the correct thickness, enough storage and allow for dexterity.” Ruoyu added, “Compared to someone like you who had to complete a set of clothing just for the sake of cosplaying, there is a difference in essence.”


“Well said.” An Yueqin added and turned to Brother Jue. “You have not a low income, do you need to be so stingy in a game? Why can’t just use some money and buy an actual Joker outfit?”


“He is not only not spending money in game, he even earned several hundred RMB from this game in May…” Ruoyu added.


“Ah?” An Yueqin widened her eyes in response. “Bujue, are you trying to switch career lane? Why didn’t you tell me?”


“This back and forth between you two is more than enough, it’s about time to stop….” Feng Bujue dragged out his voice and said with plain displeasure. “And young lady, what level are you? Why aren’t you training your level? Who told you to come meddle in the meeting of the guild’s higher ups?”


“High your head.” Ruoyu shut him down. “It was me who called her here. Qinqin is a new player, we have to help her, right? There are quite a lot of unused skill cards and equipment in the guild storage, wouldn’t they be perfect for her.”


“That’s right.” An Yueqin said, “Also…” She turned to Brother Jue. “Can you stop with the Madam Editor and young lady, do you call everyone like that in game?”


“Fine…” Feng Bujue said weakly. “When there are outsiders, I will normally refer to the people here as Passing Rain, Xiao Tan and Laughing Soul. Your ign is Singing Moon Whirling Shadow, do you want me to call you that?”


“That is such a mouthful.” An Yueqin commented.


“Then how about Moon Shadow?” Feng Bujue suggested.


“Hmm… Okay.” An Yueqin thought about it before she agreed. She knew… if she said no, Feng Bujue would start with his nonsense, names like ‘moon baby’ might come out from his mouth.


“Then does that mean that I can also call you Qinqin when there are only the few of us?” Feng Bujue asked again.


“You dare?” An Yueqin instantly slammed her palm on the table.


“Leader, did you forget that you are talking to your boss?” Laughing Soul giggled at the side.


“Fine, fine… Madam Editor.” Feng Bujue sighed, “Only your girlfriend can call you Qinqin, I get it now.”


“hmph…” Ruoyu heard the sarcasm in Brother Jue’s voice and huffed coldly, “Is that envy and jealousy I smell?”


“That’s right, only Sister Yu can call me that, you cannot.” An Yueqin added.


“Aiz…” Feng Bujue held his forehead in one hand. “I am the leader of this guild but I have no respect at all…” Actually… he did not even have dignity, much less respect.


“Then what about me?” Xiao Tan then raised his finger to point at himself.


“Call her Big Sister Qin.” Laughing Soul answered for him.


“But I am older than her.” Xiao Tan replied.


“Oh? Then what do you wish to call her~” Laughing Soul suddenly took on a very soft voice and asked Xiao Tan with a vicious glow in her eyes.


“Erm…” The astute Xiao Tan surrendered in 0.5 seconds. “Actually I am just a primary school student, everyone is my big sister.”



The group chatted for a while and even finished a movie. They ate some snacks in the fridge (Since they already bought them, why waste) before they started to prepare. Brother Jue won 4 skill cards from the Tournament of the Best, two of the sleuthing ones he had given to Xiao Tan and Soulie, the other two of Medic mastery were still sitting in the storage. Now he could hand them over with some equipment to An Yueqin. From her Doctor Jackal apparel, it was clear that An Yueqin was going to go on the medic plus fighting route. Even though she was not even level 10 yet, but the learning requirement for the two medic skill was not that high, she could probably use them until level 20.


Other than that, during this time, Underworld Frontline had accumulated some other items. Some of them were not bad, but they were not suitable for the original guild members and it was a waste to sell them. Now with An Yueqin’s entry, it solved this problem. Soon Miss An was all equipped and went to queue up on her own. She took all the skill and equipment that she could and would soon use. After all, for a whale like her, storage and inventory slot was not a problem.


After An Yueqin left, Feng Bujue looked at Ruoyu maliciously and then he chided. “Your friend sure is lucky, when I was a newbie, no one gave me free skill card and item.”


“Oh, you wish to start again?” Ruoyu answered expressionlessly. “Be it in game or in real life, if you need someone to chop you down to level 1, I am always ready to help…”


“Ha ha…” Feng Bujue laughed but did not answer. At that moment, a strange glint crossed his eyes. He thought. [I won’t allow that to happen… be it in life or in game… there are many things that I need to do…]



The four formed a group and returned to log in lobby and readied to queue up. After trading information with his teammates, Feng Bujue decided to queue up for a normal difficulty team scenario first. After all, the night was still young, there was no need to start with a nightmare scenario. This normal scenario would be treated as a warm up.
