Chapter 904: Self-Inflicted Trouble

Because the other team was fully staffed, and the Ancient Battlefield did not allow the team to be converted into a team mode that could accommodate more people, they did not invite Chen Ming to form a team.

"It's not that I don't consider you one of my own, buddy."

Although the wheat-colored thief girl who led the group spoke carelessly, her expression was quite sincere.

She was really afraid that Chen Ming would misunderstand that she had some opinion about him by not sending a friend request.

Feeling this incomparably pure kindness again, Chen Ming felt warm in his heart. He smiled and waved his hand, "I know, I know..."

After talking all the way, Chen Ming had learned that they were indeed college students.

And they were from the same school.

Different grades, different departments, organized into a small club.

The wheat-colored, heroic, carefree girl who led the group had an ID that matched her appearance very well. It was called [Wheat Ear]. She could be said to be quite talkative and chatted with Chen Ming all the way.

Not only her.

None of the college students around were idle either.

At first, everyone was indignant for Chen Ming and complained about those foreigners that Chen Ming had made up. Their sincere appearance made Chen Ming feel guilty.

But fortunately, not long after, everyone's topic shifted to Scar King.

The ultimate purpose of everyone's trip.

"We must make a fortune no matter what, otherwise, the source energy will not be enough!"

"Indeed, this time we went to the deepest point and spent too much source energy. If we can't make a fortune from Scar King, we can only be slaves here to mine."

"And the ores we dug out cannot be kept until we take them out and hand them in to Biehe City to exchange for rewards... They must be used directly in the ancient battlefield and exchanged for source energy to prolong our lives!"

This is actually not just the trouble they encountered.

All players who enter the Ancient Battlefield will feel stretched because of the source energy. Once the source energy is insufficient, they will be rejected by the Ancient Battlefield and teleported out... People like Chen Ming who are not ambiguous at all and can smash out source energy in large quantities are really rare even if you look at the entire history of the Ancient Battlefield exploration.

"Thanks to Zarya and the group of players for giving me the opening gift package." Chen Ming could only thank her silently in his heart.

And when it comes to this, it is natural to discuss the attributes of Scar King.

Everyone heard it from various channels.

Naturally, the understanding of Scar King's attributes is not deep enough.

If it were an ordinary team, Chen Ming would definitely try to be a small transparent person as much as possible after sneaking in, and try not to participate in the discussion, but the red city of these students made Chen Ming not want to hide it.

"I know Scar King's attributes better."

"After all, when the foreign coalition wanted to trick us into joining, they still produced a lot of evidence... For example, these two high-definition screenshots."

As he spoke, Chen Ming posted the screenshots.

Those are the attributes of Scar King and the remains of the Ancient Red Dragon.

These are the information that Chen Ming found through the game's built-in automatic recording and saving system. When the attributes of these two bosses were revealed, the group of players fell silent.

Chen Ming thought they were scared.

They were about to back off.

But who would have thought that after a brief silence, they all spoke up.

"This attribute is so awesome!"

"Damn, is this the Ancient Red Dragon?! It looks so cool, much cooler than the ones in the screenshots!"

"I was originally worried that I would lose money if I didn't get anything on this trip, but now it seems that I was overthinking... Just taking a look at these two bosses is worth it!"

"Anyway, the source energy is distributed for free by the NPC of Beihe City, so we will make a lot of money just by taking a look, no loss, no loss!"

Hearing their extremely excited tone, Chen Ming was a little confused for a while.

This...

It's really hard for me to keep up with their thinking.

We chatted and walked all the way.

As the surroundings gradually became lifeless, the ores that were occasionally seen had completely disappeared. Chen Ming, who was very familiar with the situation here, cheered up, "We are almost there."

For Chen Ming's familiarity with the road, Mai Sui'er and other players did not find it strange at all. Instead, they thought that as a senior who had explored the road once, it was normal for him to have such an understanding.

So everyone stopped joking and picked up their weapons to cheer up.

As they gradually went deeper.

Suddenly.

A group of players appeared in front.

There were about 40 to 50 people.

Obviously, several teams had been entangled.

Seeing Chen Ming and his group approaching, the blond and blue-eyed man in the lead waved to everyone, "Everyone!"

This man was not handsome, but he was quite decent, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looked like the enthusiastic stupid muscle man who often appeared in American TV series, and he had a special affinity.

"You are here to fight Scar King, too?"

"How about we form a team together?"

"That guy is very powerful. It is difficult for our scattered teams to deal with him. Only by uniting together can we have a chance to compete with him... You see, there are already five teams united here."

"You are the Chinese team, right?"

"Does your team have Pearl Jade White Jade Soup? Haha, just kidding! If the Chinese God of War is here, we will have to cling to your thighs."

The words he used to recruit people did not seem deliberate at all, but were quite natural and especially friendly.

Plus the last joke.

He accurately grasped the psychology of many Chinese players - the foreign players who were slaughtered by Pearl Jade White Jade Soup are hostile to us.

He cleverly resolved such hostility with just a joke.

If it were before, Mai Sui'er and other players would definitely believe it.

But at this moment...

They all turned their heads to look at Chen Ming.

Their eyes were full of playfulness.

Mai Sui'er lowered her voice and said with a hint of anger, "Good guy, this group of people are still swindling!"

"Good brother, don't be afraid, although they have a lot of people, but they don't know that we already know their details."

"It seems that they are calculating us, but in fact we are calculating them!"

"The enemy is in the open, we are in the dark, their numerical advantage is not to be feared."

"With your current dress, they will definitely not recognize you..."

"Don't worry, just wait and see how the sisters will avenge you!"

These words made Chen Ming stunned.

It's not that the younger sister who is a few years younger than me took advantage of me by claiming to be my sister.

The most important thing is...

What he said before was just a casual remark!

There are no foreigners who have united to stab me in the back.

I really don't know whether these guys are good or bad...

Chen Ming subconsciously wanted to find a reason to stop them.

But before he could make up a new excuse, this group of honest college students had already shown a serious look and rushed towards them.

Passing by Chen Ming, several people cast various glances at him.

They looked indignant.

It was as if they were the ones who were stabbed in the back, not Chen Ming...

Fuck, you are too sincere!

"The ones I met before... were not them!"

In a hurry, Chen Ming could only explain this.

But Mai Sui'er only said, "Although they are not the same group of people, they don't look like good people either."

Good guy, they have already determined from the bottom of their hearts that the group in front is not right.

Chen Ming was speechless now, not knowing what to do.

But the situation had come to this point, and he could not think too much, he could only bite the bullet and follow.

He had done something wrong...

He had to pay for it himself!
