“It is not very efficient to play like this,” Lu Li said.

“I think this is okay. It feels cool – unless you have a better way of playing?” Her Tears didn’t think this was slow. In fact, this was much faster than when he was playing alone.

“The first option is to exploit a small bug, and the second is to split the team,” Lu said, offering two choices.

Lu Li thought that Her Tears would jump at the mention of a bug. After all, a bug generally produced results that had never been seen before. But unexpectedly, Her Tears responded calmly by saying, “Let’s not use the bug. We shouldn’t trouble ourselves in the battlefield, and we should also keep it a fair fight.”

Lu Li didn’t really mind either way.

The so called Arathi bug was actually quite simple. There was an area in the Alliance base where you could force your way out during the one-minute preparation time. In that time, you could gain a significant amount of points and it would take a very strong opposing team to pull off a

The Alliance players in the Arathi battlefield who exploited this bug were called jumpers. From the Horde’s point of view, the Alliance players could somehow jump to the flag before they could reach them.

However, if they didn’t use the bug, then the number of players needed to be changed. Currently, the team of fifteen players was a bit much. The System would try to match opponents of the same size. Even if they were weaker than Lu Li’s team, it could be very difficult if they were well coordinated.

As for the number of players for each new group? It was simple – the optimal number was four players per group.

If they were in groups of five, they might get matched together. If they wanted to avoid this, it was best to be in groups of four.

The final teams were determined to be Her Tears, Lu Li, March Rain and Moonlight. This was quite a strong team to fight newbies with. The other teams were also quite strong, but there were some players who didn’t want to continue playing on the battlefield and chose to quit and farm instead. These players were Lonesome Flower and Sakura Memories.

With the team now organized in groups of four, Lu Li gave the party leader to Her Tears and waited for the match to start while looking through the Exchange Hall.

In fact, he didn’t have much time to see anything. By the time he opened the window, he was prompted to enter the battlefield. With fewer players, the matching was faster. After entering the match, the opposing team wasn’t nearly as skilled because they were a random team as well.

Arthur was a streamer, a career that had long since been established. However, this Arthur wasn’t doing very well. It was a very competitive industry, he wasn’t a woman and nor did he act cute. What’s more, he only ever streamed the battlefields. Instance Dungeons, Arenas or any other battle usually gathered much more attention.

Today, he was up to his sixth match. The five previous ones had all gone badly; he and his teammates were just being farmed as they revived.

If you looked at the chat, you could see the barrage of messages to get a sense of the situation.

“Oh, Arthur, this is going badly…”

“Arthur, you should get your cousin to carry you again. I’ve never seen such an embarrassing streamer before.”

“Just close the stream and go home. Are you even a gamer? You seemed like you could do it before…”

“Haha, you Alliance pigs are so stupid. We Horde players love seeing weaklings like you, so we can slaughter them.”

“Not this again. You haven’t even run into a full team of 15 yet. Dammit, some guy next to Arthur just ran out without their equipment. This is very grim.”

Lu Li thought it was quite grim too. This man wasn’t completely naked, as Dawn wouldn’t let you do that, so he was just running around in his underwear in the desert yelling, “Brothers, you probably know what I’m doing already. Call me daddy, or I’ll kill myself.”

“…”

The Alliance players were speechless.

Every game had its fair share of eccentric characters. These people existed in real life, but only manifested their strangeness in games.

There were some players that did this for money. They would try to force others to pay them by holding the match hostage. Most players could pay a few silver coins for this player to leave, but the worst kind was someone who did this for no reason.

If someone killed themselves, it wouldn’t have a direct impact, but it did mean that the Alliance’s side had less to work with.

In addition, with a teammate always dying, it was a blow to their morale.

Were they really going to have to call him daddy?

“Buddy, I am streaming. Please give me a break!” Arthur cried out. He really wanted to just call him daddy, but he knew that if he did that, he would lose his viewers. He only had 500-600 viewers left, and he would probably be left with fewer than 100.

“Haha, you’re streaming? That’s great,” this guy laughed, seeming to get even more excited.

“I’m not going to call you anything.”

Once they heard that this was being streamed, everyone became even more anxious. If you lost a match in front of a dozen players, who cares? But who knew how many people was watching that stream. There could be 100,000 people and some of them could be friends in real life.

“Should we split up or go together?” Her Tears asked, not even bothering with this person.

“Let’s go together to the Gold Mines first. We’ll kill them and then heard onto the Farms,” Lu Li said as he summoned his Headless Paladin’s Steed and rushed out almost immediately.

The other players were stunned.

They didn’t know who this player was, but they were stunned because of the Headless Paladin’s Steed.

This mount could only be obtained through the Halloween events and was a rare combat drop. There were no more than 100 produced in a sea of millions of players.

They had not expected to see the Headless Paladin in this place.

Some of them were quite frustrated because they had to run on foot.

When they saw Lu Li’s three friends also summon their mounts, they became even more restless.

March Rain and Her Tears were both riding mounts from their own races, but these were mounts that they had seen walk through the street before. The effect of finding out Moonlight was there was not much different from Lu Li. He had acquired the first place on the Warsong Canyon’s Glory Rankings.

In such a random group of players, the gap between the players was immediately obvious.

“Moonlight!”

“Dammit, it’s Great God Moonlight!’

In the minds of the battlefield players, Moonlight and Blood Dagger were the top players. Although Moonlight had not fought in a battlefield for a long time, his reputation was still well known.
