Guide on How to Fail at Online Dating

Chapter 6 - God of War Gege! Help me aahhhhhhh——

After turning off the friends function, the whole game interface was much more peaceful now.

Xiang Huaizhi flew to the storage envoy and stuffed all the Golden Finch Feathers he had just collected inside.

A head suddenly popped up from the opposite bed. “Slag guy, how many feathers did you collect?”

After hearing this address, Xiang Huaizhi didn’t even turn around. “Why, do you want to go take a stroll along the rebirth checkpoint?”

Lu Hang immediately stopped. “Tsk, why can’t you take a joke. Quick, back to the point, how many feathers have you collected?”

“It’s enough now.” Xiang Huaizhi said, “Collect your own items in the future.”

“Isn’t it because my trades are restricted by the system because I logged in while abroad… I have to go through this every time I come back from a long vacation, it’s not like you don’t know.” Lu Hang logged into his account while talking and only sensed that something was off halfway through the conversation. “Wait, I only asked you to help me collect the feathers ten minutes ago, how could you have harvested enough so quickly?! How much did you pay?”

Xiang Huaizhi, “One hundred gold.”

Lu Hang was so angry he vomited blood. “For something sold at 70 gold in Chambers of Commerce everywhere! You bought it for a hundred gold?!”

“Everywhere? Go and take a look at the Chamber of Commerce. If you can find a hundred of them, I’ll give you my character.”

“It only takes one hundred of them to make an artifact once!”

Xiang Huaizhi raised an eyebrow. “Once? Do you think the game is owned by your family? You may not even get one decent one even after forging ten.”

Lu Hang’s right eyelid twitched. “… so how many did you collect exactly?

“Didn’t count”

Didn’t count, so there must be at least enough to fill one storage.

Lu Hang sucked in a breath of cold air, calmly picked up his cell phone, and looked at the balance in his bank card.

“Don’t worry, these can be considered to be collected by me. I’ll sell you seventy-one of them.” Xiang Huaizhi said lightly

Lu Hang clenched his fist. “Fuck, I’m never calling you a slag guy again! You’re my Ge, you’ll always be my Ge.”

Xiang Huaizhi laughed when he heard that. “Get lost.”

Lu Hang, “Oh right, I forgot to interview you. How does it feel being a slag guy?”

“Pretty good.”

“…”

Lu Hang stared at him in disbelief, and Xiang Huaizhi was too lazy to explain.

He wasn’t talking nonsense, it really did feel pretty good. During this period, there were no PK teams trying to contact him, nor were there any guilds trying to recruit him. There were even fewer girls adding him as a friend nowadays.

【Your friend Long Road Ahead has come online.】(Long Road Ahead = lu yao yao, same lu as Lu Hang)

“Ai! The restriction from my remote login has been lifted! I can form a party now!” After logging in, Lu Hang shouted at the opposite bed, “Come quick, I’ll bring you along to do quests. There just so happens to be an activity on right now.”

During an activity period, players would get double the experience. Xiang Huaizhi uttered an un and accepted Lu Hang’s party invitation.

Aside from special activities and high-level quests that a lot of people participated in, common activities, PK, and other conventional ways of playing mostly required a five-man party. Xiang Huaizhi opened up his party tab and saw that aside from him and Lu Hang, the other three players were all girls.

[Yearning For has joined the party.]

[Party] Darling Luoluo: …

[Party] Love is For You to Eat: [dizzy]

[Party] Ji Xiaonian: Uh.

[Party] Long Road Ahead: What’s wrong?

Party] Love is For You to Eat: Nothing. Lulu, is this your friend?

[Party] Long Road Ahead: Yeah, my good bro, do you know guys know Yearning For? His name is even on the ranking list.

[Party] Ji Xiaonian: … Even if I didn’t know him before, I would’ve come to know him these past two days [shuts up]

The roaring laughter of Lu Hang came from the side. “Hahaha, Old Xiang, why do I feel like you’re even more popular in the server now after everything you went through?”

Xiang Huaizhi couldn’t be bothered with him. He opened up his inventory and checked the potions he was carrying.

“Cough cough.” Lu Hang connected his earphones, coughed softly twice, then deliberately lowered his voice and asked, “Can you guys hear me?”

In order to facilitate communication, Nine Chivalrous Heroes had a built-in voice system.

Xiang Huaizhi was so shocked by the unexpected low pitch voice of a man that goosebumps popped up all over his body.

He frowned slightly and took off one side of his earphones.

“Ah… I can hear you.”

“We’re going to hunt in the new activity? Is it difficult? ”

“What if we can’t kill anything?”

Upon hearing the voices of girls, Lu Hang felt like he was injected with chicken blood. “It’s okay. With me around, I won’t let you guys die. Kill all the small mobs you want at the start, and when we arrive at the boss, just hide behind me.”

Before the girls could answer, Xiang Huaizhi said, “Lu Hang, turn off your mic first.”

Lu Hang said, “It’s okay, I’m using a keydown voice option, they can’t hear you.”

“Who are all these people you called over?” Xiang Huaizhi opened up their information, and two of them didn’t even have maxed out levels. And the most important thing was, “Three healers? Did you not drink enough when you were a kid?”

“Aiya, I’ve checked the activity beforehand, it’s not difficult.” Lu Hang said, “Can’t help it, I have to take my wife along ah, just treat it as helping your bro.”

Xiang Huaizhi paused. “Which one is your wife?”

Lu Hang calmly said, “Not sure yet.”

Xiang Huaizhi, “…”

——

Nine Chivalrous Heroes would have activities corresponding to different festivals, and they all had different playthroughs. The only common point between them was that they gave out more experience and rewards.

While other players were doing the activity, a little fairy fox who had been afk-ing a long time in the main city suddenly moved.

The little fairy fox quickly kept his stall, swished onto his mount, and spurred his horse to the relay station, then set out for the wild map.

Jing Huan had nearly been stifled to death.

Not because he was eager to gain experience; he had played Nine Chivalrous Heroes for so long from beginning to end and had never been a fan of afk-ing while doing quests.

He wanted to dig up the treasure map that he had “snatched” that day.

Chivalrous Thief Treasure Map was a special item that had a very low drop rate. In any case, an unlucky guy like him didn’t get one even after hunting for it for more than half a month.

According to its introduction on the official site, many unexpected items could be dug out of the Chivalrous Thief Treasure Map. Jing Huan had seen people dig out worthless steamed buns that added HP, and had also seen people dig out precious materials that couldn’t be found even with 10,000 gold. It is precisely because of this uncertainty that made people feel both nervous and excited about its possibilities.

Meanwhile, in the chat room of the guild Idle Pavilion——

[Guild] Blood, Shadow: Report! My alt saw Xiao Tianjing by the Xiliang River!

[Guild] Affectionate In Silence: Fuck, that swindler always leaves the city only when we’re doing activities.

[Guild] Chunxiao: I’m still fighting and can’t go over. Can anyone in the guild go there?

[Guild] Immortal Mengmeng: I’ll go. Is there anyone who’ll go with me? I’ll be a little scared if I go alone [taps fingers together]

[Guild] Affectionate In Silence: Xianxian, it’s okay. That character is empty, you can just kill her as you please. (Immortal = xian)

[Guild] Immortal Mengmeng: I know… It’s just my first time killing someone so I can’t help but feel a little scared. [pitiful] If it wasn’t because I hate people who deceive other people’s feelings the most, I wouldn’t even want to involve myself in this.

[Guild] Affectionate In Silence: Haha, go ahead then, you can vent your frustration by doing so too.

Immortal Mengmeng quickly formed a party of five and flew to the bank of Xiliang River.

When they arrived, they saw Xiao Tianjing’s character holding a shovel… and digging into soil.

“She’s digging for a treasure map!” Someone in the party said, “Interrupt her, quickly! After we kill her, we might even be able to get the treasure map!”

As a result, Jing Huan was halfway through digging when he was interrupted by an attack skill.

He frowned, annoyed. He didn’t even clearly see who had come before he immediately threw out a substitute and tried to escape.

The reason why he switched sects was not only because operating a Fairy Fox Cave was more interesting, but also because this sect was really good at escaping – not only was it fast, but it also had a variety of diversionary skills, and it had first-rate escape skills, such that the most commonly used tactic of Fairy Fox Caves in the arena was to screw their teammates over.

The people behind him reacted a little slower than he did. He was almost out of the map before they thought of chasing him.

Jing Huan saw that he was about to enter the safe area, but he suddenly heard them speaking behind him. “It’s okay Xianxian, even though we didn’t kill her this time, I’ll accompany you in blocking her again next time. We’ll kill her until you feel better.”

Looks like they forgot to change the broadcasting range of their voices to be within their party.

In the game, the adult woman with a fox’s tail swaying behind her paused and suddenly stopped running.

Jing Huan turned around, and sure enough, there was a Loli standing amongst the team chasing him. Its game ID was “Immortal Mengmeng”.

“Haha, she actually turned back, is she lagging?”

“Fuck, how is she so good at running…”

“Who cares? It’s even better if she disconnects, she can’t manually return to the rebirth checkpoint if she disconnects. We can wait for her to revive and continue killing her that way.” The tamer in the team immediately pulled out a summoning beast and said, “Quick, warlock, seal her first.”

The warlock immediately threw out the sealing talisman, but who would’ve thought that the talismen was still arcing in the sky when the other party jumped up first and summoned a Nine-Tailed Immortal Fox.

The mage in the team laughed. “What’s the meaning of this? She wants to fight back?”

“Who did she swindle this Nine-Tailed Immortal Fox from?”

At this time, Immortal Mengmeng suddenly turned on her mic. “Xiao Tianjing, stand still and just let us kill you once. I won’t guard your corpse. But don’t swindle others anymore, it’s really shameful for us women.”

Teammate:, “Haha, Xianxian, isn’t the way you’re talking too cute?”

“Don’t laugh~” Immortal Mengmeng shyly said, “I’m seriously trying to persuade her.”

As soon as finished speaking, Xiao Tianjing moved again.

She had only casted for half a second before a Seal Cobweb leaped out of her palm and flew straight at them. The warlock and magician standing in front reflexively dodged it.

The cobweb went straight past the two of them and flew behind them — hitting the healer monk in their party.

The monk was stunned, and before he could deal with it, Xiao Tianjing had disappeared in an instant.

“She used stealth teleport! Move, quick!” The warlock in the team reacted and shouted.

But he still warned them too late.

Immortal Mengmeng had still been slowly throwing buffs at her teammates just a few seconds ago, but in the twinkling of an eye, her body was entangled in cobwebs.

She was stunned. “What is this?!”

“Crap, break free, quick, spam your left-click! This is a debuff that can seal and reduce your character attributes…” The warlock was absolutely shocked.

This person actually managed to cast instant cobwebs in succession and even managed to entangle Immortal Mengmeng in so many layers of cobwebs within just a few seconds?!

Immortal Mengmeng became anxious. “I can’t break free…”

Just then, at the command of its master, the Nine-Tailed Immortal Fox spat out flames at where Immortal Mengmeng stood.

Immortal Mengmeng herself was not well equipped, and she was wrapped up in so many layers of debuff that those flames burned up all the HP she had left.

[System announcement: Player Immortal Mengmeng was inadvertently killed by the other party during a compulsory PK and lost the Jasper Ribbon.]

Right when the announcement popped up, Xiao Tianjing turned tail and ran again. Only then did several people realize something — that person had never thought of fighting back from beginning to end! She just wanted to get rid of one of their teammates!

Several people recovered from the shock,and couldn’t help but curse one after another, then broke into a run and gave chase!

“What the fuck.” At the other end of the map, Lu Hang opened his eyes wide and exclaimed, “Old Xiang, did you see how she played just now?”

Xiang Huaizhi did not say a word.

They had finished their quest long ago and were now taking turns in the wild map. They had clearly seen the counterattack just now

That Fairy Fox Cave had indeed played very well.

But…was there anyone who could tell him why that Fairy Fox Cave was called Xiao Tianjing?

Lu Hang was still talking, “Tsktsktsk, she cast so many layers of cobwebs, even the number one Fairy Fox in Watercolour server may not be able to do that, right?”

“As long as his opponent isn’t me, he can do it.” Xiang Huaizhi looked away. “Do you still want to do the quest or not?”

“Yeah. Ai, no, don’t you want to continue watching?’

“Don’t want to.”

All right then.

Lu Hang clicked lightly and was about to leave the wild map when he saw the Fairy Fox in front of them suddenly turn around and rush straight towards them in order to avoid the skill of the warlock.

“Yi! She’s coming over here!” Lu Hang squinted and moved closer to the screen. “Wait a minute, Xiao Tianjing… Why does this name sound a little familiar?

The girl in the party reminded him, “It’s the female swindler that Idle Pavilion is hunting down.”

A sudden realisation dawned upon Lu Hang. “Oh yeah! It’s her! Eh…are female cheaters so skilful nowadays?”

Looking at the little fairy fox flying towards them, Xiang Huaizhi suddenly recalled the wild monster kill that had been snatched that day and felt a little uneasy. “Are we leaving or not?”

Lu Hang, “We are, we’ll leave right now, why are you in such a hurry…”

“Ah.” An unfamiliar female voice suddenly slipped into their earphones.

It wasn’t an overly cloying voice, and it sounded quite clear and crisp, which made people feel comfortable upon hearing it for some reason.

At this moment, that voice was filled with surprise and excitement.

“Gege——”

Lu Hang was stunned. It took him a long time to realise that the voice came from Xiao Tianjing.

Lu Hang, “… Who is she calling?”

Xiang Huaizhi, “I don’t know.”

As soon as he spoke, he saw Xiao Tianjing suddenly turn around in mid air, and pounce straight at Yearning For with the little white fox beside her——

“God of War Gege! Help me aahhhhhhh——”

Xiang Huaizhi, the only one in the server who had the God of War title, “…”
