Chapter 404: 404: Gathering People
The three she recognized were Yu Yaqing, Yan Qingwen, and Lun Ang.
Of the two she didn’t know, one was dark and strong like charcoal, while the other was pale, fat, and bald.
Since she knew the first three, there was no need for introductions. Shen Mo introduced to them the latter two:
“This one is Robin, a student from the sports academy, proficient in weightlifting, discus throwing, and sprinting.
This one is Zhao Mingdeng, a salesperson and also a webmaster of a gaming site, specializing in designing game guides.
If we can gather enough people by tomorrow, we will enter the game the day after. If we cannot gather enough people, we will withdraw tomorrow evening.”
Tan Xiao asked in confusion: “Haven’t we gathered enough people already? Five people here, plus the five of us makes exactly ten. We can enter the game.”
“We’re still two short.” Shen Mo said calmly, “According to the information on the 21st game, the biggest challenge in the game is a puppet cat that is exceptionally fast. That’s why I am bringing people with agile physical responses. Teacher Chang and Xiaoxin will stay behind.”
Pan Xiaoxin blinked and then uttered an “oh”, calmly accepting this arrangement.
It was perfectly normal for Shen Mo not to let him go as he was young and would be at a disadvantage in the game. The 21st game was also quite perilous.
However, Teacher Chang’s expression was somewhat gloomy, and he silently sighed.
Yan Qingwen lightly joked: “Zhu Shu also wanted to go, but unfortunately, Shen Mo didn’t want her.”
Yu Yaqing followed with a chuckle: “Actually, Zhu Shu has gone through two mazes. Her physical ability is quite impressive, she just lacks experience because she hasn’t practiced before.”
“This is just a lack of game operation awareness. It’s natural. Most people are like this.” The chubby man said matter-of-factly. “Some people will just blindly attack when they see monsters. But some people will time the cooldown, and consciously plan the order and combination of each ultimate move. This is awareness, awareness~”
Tan Xiao frowned at the fat man, then looked back at Shen Mo, unable to resist asking: “Hey, Mo, didn’t you say… you’re only bringing nimble people?”
“Hey, don’t underestimate people!” The fat man felt his own belly and performed a hula hoop move. “I may be fat, but I’m quite agile.”
The flesh on his belly moved up and down, shaking rapidly.
The athlete next to him glanced at him in annoyance, then turned to Bai Youwei, and said: “I’ll say this in advance, I didn’t know you guys were bringing disabled people. If anything happens to her in the game, I won’t rescue her. Inside the game, it’s life or death, and I will only take care of myself. Don’t blame me afterwards for not giving face.”
“No worries about that.” Yan Qingwen lightly tapped the young man’s shoulder and teased, “Even if you wanted to save her, you probably couldn’t get there in time. So, relax.”
Yu Yaqing couldn’t help but want to laugh. Seeing a fuming Bai Youwei, and feeling that his laughter was inappropriate, he awkwardly hid it with his hand.
Shen Mo said: “Since we all are going into the game together, we only have one goal: to clear the stage. As for other things, you can do what you wish, and there is no need for any burden.”
Bai Youwei frowned at him: “We’re still short by two. How are you planning to solve this?”
The game requires at least ten participants to start, and even one less is not acceptable.
Chang Weicai hesitantly spoke up: “Actually… I can…”
Shen Mo cut him off: “Teacher Chang, game 21 demands not only physical ability but also the familiarity with a complex game environment. It would be better if you stayed here and wait for the news with Xiaoxin.”
Teacher Chang: “Ah…”
Bai Youwei thought for a bit, then looked at Yan Qingwen: “How is Su Man’s injury?”
Yan Qingwen slowly shook his head, “You should know what kind of personality she has. If she could come, she would have been here by now.”
“No rush.” Shen Mo said quietly, “There’s still a day left tomorrow; we’ll wait some more.”
