The most pressing issue is actually that the Hall Master is injured. If the Hall Master recovers from his injury, the pressure on the captains will disappear.
While listening to Zhang Zhenyi's speech, Fang Yu was also looking at the others.
[Wan Henyao: 1515/1515.]
[Zhang Fanglin: 1450/1450.]
[Jiang Aobai: 1498/1498.]
[Jing Chulan: 1600/1600.]
[...]
Fang Yu found that these reserve deputy captains seed to have an average strength level hovering around 1500.
Even if slightly higher, it wasn't by much.
The only exception was Jing Chulan, who seed to have an outstanding level of strength, which explained why she was so bold in her previous remarks.
Perhaps because Fang Yu was staring at Jing Chulan for a bit too long, she suddenly turned her head and looked towards him.
Imdiately, their eyes t.
But Jing Chulan just smiled at Fang Yu, pointed upwards as if to tell him to focus on the captain's speech, and then ignored him.
This guy... is he a gar?
Fang Yu felt uncertain.
Because the way this guy spoke earlier with Zhuo Xue Er was just too similar to a gar.
But the idea of a reserve deputy captain level gar infiltrating the Foolish Underworld without him realizing just didn't seem realistic to Fang Yu.
"Diao Deyi, keep your distance from that woman, lest you catch her madness and start spouting crazy talk."
Zhuo Xue Er had sohow moved close and whispered.
"Madness?"
Fang Yu was perplexed.
Zhuo Xue Er simply sneered.
"I just found out. It seems that Jing Chulan captured a bunch of mad people recently and has started imitating their way of speaking, claiming she's assimilating into their midst. She's completely lost her mind! With soone like her, it's a disgrace to the Jing family!"
Fang Yu was speechless.
Zhuo Xue Er was telling him to focus on the captain's speech, yet she, herself, was off gathering gossip about her rival.
But... madness?
Could it be that Jing Chulan was imitating a group of gars, intending to blend in with them in a reverse manner?
What kind of move was that?
Fang Yu was puzzled.
However, realizing that she was just mimicking and not actually a gar, Fang Yu felt more relieved.
It seed that he was just overthinking things.
Currently, there shouldn't be many gars who had climbed up the ranks in the Foolish Underworld.
But interestingly, Zhuo Xue Er used the term 'madness' instead of 'demon.'
This implies that the group of gars had been discovered by so.
After all, the 'human skin' of a gar does not revert to a demon's true form after death but results in actual death.
This was quite different from demons.
"Now, the reserve deputy captains whose nas are called, follow upstairs one by one. Zhuo Xue Er, you're first."
Distracted by Fang Yu's presence, Zhuo Xue Er was the first to be called.
A shiver ran through her, and she quickly responded.
Facing the stern gaze of Captain Zhang Zhenyi, Zhuo Xue Er appeared very nervous, clenching her fists tight as if feeling the pressure.
Following Zhang Zhenyi escorting Zhuo Xue Er upstairs, the atmosphere in the room finally relaxed.
After a few steps, Jing Chulan approached Fang Yu.
"Kid, I noticed you were looking at quite a few tis just now. What's up? Thinking that following Zhuo Xue Er won't get you anywhere and you want to join ? Don't worry, if you co to , I'll offer you double the rewards!"
Jing Chulan was quite generous, striking a confident pose with her ample assets making it hard for others to maintain eye contact.
The subordinates behind Jing Chulan seed helpless as if they were used to Jing Chulan's offbeat behavior.
"Lord Jing Chulan, I am a mber under Lord Zhuo Xue Er's command. How could I possibly leave her at such a crucial ti?"
"Oh? Still got so backbone, huh?" Jing Chulan narrowed her eyes, suddenly leaning into Fang Yu.
Her smooth face beca extrely close suddenly, as her bright eyes observed any slight movent from Fang Yu.
"Are you sure you haven't considered joining ... my guild has plenty of mbers, you know."
Guild???
What the heck???
Fang Yu was full of question marks inside but kept a calm exterior—acting as an undercover agent was his expertise.
"Lord, I don't understand what you're talking about. Given the rivalry between you and Lord Zhuo Xue Er, we should avoid getting too close."
"Is that so?"
Jing Chulan turned around, back facing Fang Yu.
"Then I guess I'll 'log off' now."
Log off?
Is this how you log off? It's like a foreigner speaking Chinese...
Just as Fang Yu thought of that.
Swoosh!!
Jing Chulan suddenly turned back, her face almost pressed against Fang Yu's.
"I sll lies."
Is she crazy???
"Lady Jing Chulan!"
A pair of jade hands suddenly appeared between them; it was Suo Fengxiang who made a move.
"Can, can you please stop harassing our people?"
Separating the two, Suo Fengxiang stood protectively in front of Fang Yu, like a mother hen guarding her chick, stretching out her arms to keep Fang Yu behind her, staring intently at Jing Chulan.
Jing Chulan was clearly taken aback, probably not expecting such a strong reaction from Suo Fengxiang.
She pouted her mouth.
"Boring."
She slowly walked back to her own team.
The mbers over there all had faces of helplessness, frustration, and a few even looked a bit crazed.
Looking at it now, Zhuo Xueer, who was quite normal, actually seed like a breath of fresh air.
At this mont, Zhuo Xueer happened to co down from upstairs, with a serious expression on her face.
Soon, Jing Chulan was called upstairs.
With her hands behind her head, she went up with an indifferent look on her face.
"Lady Zhuo Xueer!"
"Lady Zhuo Xueer."
Everyone gathered around Zhuo Xueer, with only Suo Fengxiang whispering to Fang Yu.
"Diao Deyi, stay away from Lady Jing Chulan in the future; she is Lady Zhuo Xueer's competitor!"
What are you telling for, it's not like I wanted to provoke her...
But... why did she co to test ?
Fang Yu suddenly thought of the initial weird conversation she had with Zhuo Xueer, then his own observation of her...
Yes, it was because of my active observation that led her to further probe.
Too bad, her understanding of players is still too superficial, not even grasping the true aning of the jargon.
Yet even so, Fang Yu felt very strange.
An NPC inside the ga actually started studying the players in reverse??
What kind of operation is this??
Could it be that one day there will be a traitor NPC among the players??
Fang Yu felt depressed, the developnt of this ga left him sowhat confused.
At this mont, Zhuo Xueer's voice brought him back to reality.
"Diao Deyi, this mission might be very dangerous. When necessary, I need... you to use that move."
That move?
Fang Yu subconsciously thought of the Yuan Demon Body.
Then he realized, Zhuo Xueer was simply referring to Demonization.
No problem, re Demonization, with very little increase in demonization degree, does not pose much danger.
Of course, this applied to Fang Yu; for these NPCs who didn't even know how to boost their Spirit, even 1% demonization was an almost irreversible threat.
Therefore, Zhuo Xueer's voice was so careful and serious.
"I know what to do, I've been promoted by Lady Zhuo Xueer, now is my ti to repay the favor!"
Speaking professionally, Fang Yu was still quite eloquent.
Sure enough, Zhuo Xueer was quite satisfied.
However, when Fang Yu wanted to ask about the specifics of the mission, she avoided the topic, seemingly this mission had a high level of confidentiality.
At that mont, Jing Chulan had already co down from upstairs, her expression not as relaxed as when she went up, and with a hint of seriousness added.
Soon, other Reserve Deputy Captains also went upstairs one after another to receive their promotion missions.
Suo Fengxiang took the opportunity to tell Zhuo Xueer about what Jing Chulan had done to Fang Yu.
Zhuo Xueer imdiately beca angry.
There's even such underhanded tactics??
"Jing! Chulan!!"
Zhuo Xueer was nearly roaring, but Jing Chulan had already stuck out her tongue and scampered off with her team.
Now that the mission was given, there was no aning for them to stay, better to go back and prepare.
Zhuo Xueer, chest heaving with anger, waved her hand and led her people away.
But once out of Stormwind Tower, Fang Yu said.
"Lady Zhuo Xueer, I have sothing to attend to and need to leave for a bit, I'll rejoin you later."
