Chapter 581 - Storm City's Number Two Expert, Zhao Yun!
Chapter 581: Storm City’s Number Two Expert, Zhao Yun!
“Hello gorgeous lady, hello little girl…” Half an hour later, in a room on the warship, Feng Luo looked helpless as he watched the young Earth Manipulator making friendly greetings to Phoenix and Digital Cat.
This fellow’s ability of being so naturally friendly was beyond his expectation.
Other than previously chatting for a bit when they were waiting for rescue in the sea for a period of time after being knocked into the sea by the giant Sea Serpent, the two did not do anything else.
In the end, this fellow had changed from calling him “brother” to “Old Feng” in just this period of time chatting.
“Old Feng, who’s this guy? Feels a bit familiar.” In the room, another person who addressed him as “Old Feng” expressed his dissatisfaction at the exclusive title being snatched away.
Big Pineapple looked guarded as he stared at the Earth Manipulator with a handsome gigolo face, clearly contrasting to his own appearance and vibe.
“Zhao Yun…y’all should hear this name.” Feng Luo introduced him to the few people in the room.
Yes, Zhao Yun!
When Feng Luo first knew of this fellow’s name, he had to admit that he felt that it was strange.
Although Zhao Yun was far from “Zhao Yun,” most Chinese players would probably have a good feeling with this name.
Could it be a reason why the approval between the two of them had improved so unscientifically?
“Zhao Yun, one of Storm City’s top 10 star players, nicknamed ‘Shell God.’ His Talent is an S-Grade Talent related to the ‘Energy Formation.’ He had previously dominated the star player ability ranking for 14 days and half an hour. Due to having been effortlessly beaten by Sword Ki Long River three days ago in the arena active invitation battle, he has fallen to second place on the ability ranking now, facing the threat of being overtaken by the third place in the near future…” Zhao Yun greeted mockingly, while Digital Cat had a cold face as she quickly stated some information.
Feng Luo knew that this reaction should have been triggered by that greeting of “little girl.”
Although Digital Cat was no older than 17, her psyche and thought processing were very matured; she did not like being given such a title as “little girl” by a stranger.
“Cough, cough…little girl, I suppose what you said was too biased. What do you mean effortlessly beaten? Clearly my ability and that brat’s are on par, and my ability is practically better than his. It was just that he hid a trump card, hm…actually I was too careless then… Storm City’s number two expert.” Zhao Yun touched his nose, his face quickly becoming slightly awkward.
However, as he said this, his eyes glancing at Digital Cat was a little surprised.
Although this information definitely could be searched up on the forum, Digital Cat did not check the forum as she said this but had remembered it by heart.
“Shell God? Hm, this nickname is rather…chic, is there any origin?” Phoenix on the other hand was a little shocked at the nickname of ‘Shell God.’
She was not actually a Storm City player; because of little Sally’s mission, she had been staying in Storm City these days.
With the Nine Star Guild’s activity this time, she had rather stayed put, and so had moved to Storm City. She was not familiar with the “Storm City’s top 10 star players” and what-not.
“Cough, cough…well…” Zhao Yun coughed again and looked speechless.
As Storm City’s best star player, although it was all high-end players on this warship, he sensed that he should have gotten a few unexpected surprises and looks upon revealing his ID.
After all, he was an ability ranking player, not those fakes on the popularity ranking; the more one was an expert, the better one’s ability was.
He had not thought that the reactions of a gorgeous lady and a beautiful little girl in this room would have been different from what he had expected.
Who knew why one of them was cold-faced and the other had asked a question that had made him go crazy.
Why was Shell God called “Shell God?”
Zhao Yun was crying inside.
Everyone was called Cold Edge, Shadow, Sword God, Snipe King and what not…why was his nickname so wrecked?
“Hm, my nickname and what not…gorgeous lady, you haven’t told me your name.” As Zhao Yun spoke halfway, he abruptly switched the topic.
“Phoenix.”
“Ah, so you’re the gorgeous lady Phoenix who has Storm City’s first Quasi-Boss pet? I’ve heard that your pet is a very…”
…
A few minutes later, after being praised a bit by this Storm City’s number two expert Zhao Yun, Big Pineapple was about to address him as “Old Zhao” already.
Even Phoenix almost let down her guard in front of strangers.
Of course, it was except Digital Cat who had been immersed in repairing “Arnold.”
“You have a message!” Just then, Feng Luo’s Communicator rang.
“General Red, what’s up?” Feng Luo picked up.
“Mister Feng, there’s something I’d like to discuss with y’all. For this reclamation, once in the ruins, how about we move together?” Red Queen’s voice sounded.
“Move together…” Feng Luo’s heart lurched.
In this ruins reclamation, although there was a total of 500 people, not everyone was grouped together.
Especially that the casual players would be individually split into groups.
What Red Queen meant was that since everyone knew one another, why not group together. This way, it would be easier to cooperate than being grouped with people they did not know well, and they would be able to be more trusting towards one another.
“Well…hold on, I’ll ask the others for their opinion.” Feng Luo was agreeable to Red Queen’s idea.
After all, the abilities of Red Queen and her people were not poor, and Feng Luo was very familiar with their combat style, as everyone had cooperated before.
However, there were some decisions that Feng Luo would never directly make for Phoenix and the others.
“General Red’s side is preparing to form a group with us once the reclamation starts, and would like to hear from us…” Thus, Feng Luo first set the Communicator to hidden mode, then turned to speak to the people in the room.
“Form a group? If they grouped with us, then there’d be two Snipers, two Manipulators, two Light Armored Warriors, one Medic, one Scout and one Heavy Armored Warrior…the dynamics work, I don’t object.” Digital Cat looked up and said after pondering for a few seconds.
“From the battle just now, their people’s performance was not bad, I think we can consider…” Phoenix nodded.
“Hey, if we’re really together, then wouldn’t more than half the team be all little girls…” Big Pineapple looked like his focus was completely different, with a face of joy.
“Really?…Old Feng, what about adding me!” Zhao Yun’s face lit up.
“Why, you haven’t gotten a team?” Feng Luo looked towards Zhao Yun, surprised.
“I’m a casual player, not a guild player, of course I’d have no team. There’s quite some people who want to rope me in, but…you know, I’m not good with just anyone, and I don’t like to entertain others either…” Zhao Yun looked troubled.
As one whose ability was at the top end and who was a non-guild player, there were many people who would invite him.
As there were too many invites, he did not know which team of guild players to join.
He would not like to join typical teams of casual players, although they were also casual players, his familiarity with the casual players on this warship was not up to that with some guild players.
Furthermore, if teams were completely put together with casual players, the cooperation and trust within would definitely be a problem.
Of course, expressing that he wanted to join Feng Luo and the others, Zhao Yun’s consideration was of course not without motives.
An important reason was that he was satisfied with the abilities of the three of them, Feng Luo, Big Pineapple, and Phoenix.
Although it was all Storm City’s top players participating in the reclamation this time, abilities could still be differentiated into good and poor.
Just like how the performance of Feng Luo and the others in the arena previously would have been ranked at the top 100 on this warship based on overall ability.
If considering Phoenix’s Quasi-Boss pet and Feng Luo’s rad damage from before, this team’s ability was not inferior to the teams of guild players.
