Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 175: Faction Rankings: 1_2


The two looked at Sword Star, thinking that with Sword Star's temperament, he would surely have a few words to say.

Who knew Sword Star would actually breathe a sigh of relief and say, "You came at the right time, with only me here, I was really worried about any slip-up."

At first, the two were surprised that Sword Star voluntarily conceded, but the next moment they realized something was wrong. What did he mean by only him being here?

So this kid never saw them as people from the start, huh?

Wu Chang looked at the three as if they were high on adrenaline, first in confusion but quickly figured it out.

Had the players who joined his faction all received a system prompt?

Thinking this way, everything started to make sense.

These experienced players must have participated in more than one competitive scenario and knew that once they captured the top spot, they would face attacks from the old factions.

If their faction won, it would provide a 25% completion rate for the scenario, its value equivalent to a main quest, and no player would give up such an easy reward.

Under everyone's escort, Wu Chang arrived at the captain's room, where Shadow was already waiting at the door.

Since preparing to take action tonight, Wu Chang had arranged Shadow near the captain's room to prevent Jiang Junsu's associates from coming to destroy evidence or players from the crew faction from swooping in to take advantage.

Wu Chang asked, "Has anyone come by?"

Shadow said, "A suspicious guy showed up nearby, felt something was off and didn't dare come closer. But I've marked him, so finding him later will be easy."

Sword Star used the room card taken from Jiang Junsu's body to open the door; they walked into the room looking for suspicious clues.

With high levels of Inspiration, Wu Chang quickly found a palm-sized encrypted communicator under the desk compartment.

Once out of the hidden sea area, pressing the distress button allows the other side of the communicator to lock onto his coordinates and dispatch a ship to rescue at top speed.

Cui Chengze once mentioned that after completing the sacrificial offering on the Louis, a speedboat would appear to take away the captain and New Cosmos Sect's top members.

Seems like this encrypted communicator is used for calling the speedboat, as an Item.

For most players, obtaining this encrypted communicator is equivalent to being 80% through the game.

What remains is just to endure until the thirtieth day inside the Shipwreck Belt, when Star Jump leaves the belt, find a way to call the speedboat during the sacrifice, and then hijack the speedboat to successfully escape Star Jump and the Shipwreck Belt.

Doing it this way, even if scenario completion is slightly lower, leaving the scenario alive will not be difficult.

He hesitated for a moment, but chose not to hide the encrypted communicator, instead preparing to give his team some motivation.

He deliberately made a noise as if opening a secret compartment at the desk, then took out the encrypted communicator in front of Sword Star and the others.

Shadow, who was adept at intelligence gathering, knew more than others it seemed, and recognized the origin of the encrypted communicator, exclaiming, "What is this?"

Wu Chang, unperturbed, said, "It's what can get us out of here."

With these words, everyone, including Cyan Dragon and White Tiger, started breathing rapidly.

Wu Chang pocketed the encrypted communicator in front of everyone, saying, "We'll talk when we get back."

The few people nodded heavily and began to search the room for clues more diligently.

Escaping the Shipwreck Belt means leaving alive, nothing could be more exciting than that.

Especially Sword Star and the others, who felt as if they had struck it lucky.

As expected, their mentor, with the faction established just three days, had suddenly claimed the top faction, and now also stumbled upon the key Item to clear the scenario.

Not only that, upon reflection, they as players, only needed to run errands, dress as maids to cheer, and everything was taken care of.

What does full-auto clearing mean?

This, in their eyes, is their mentor; in the eyes of players from other factions, it would probably be called 'hacking.'

Have to say, to be appointed as the Star Jump's captain by the navy, Jiang Junsu was indeed cautious enough.

Aside from the necessary items, there weren't more excessive clues in the room.

After a while more searching, except for the encrypted communicator, they found only Star Jump's highest authority card and some simple luggage.

They proceeded to search First Mate Li Yuanzhi's room, and Shadow managed to find some unusual clues.

It was a paper notebook, marked with 'burn after reading,' but obviously, the cunning Li Yuanzhi found a way to preserve it.

Opening the notebook, it recorded everything about Wu Chang, more precisely about Li Zaisi's intelligence.

It included analysis of his character, preferences for meals and smoking, and drinking habits, even his sexual preferences recorded in detail.

Every two or three pages, there would be a few attached photographs, mostly candid shots depicting him entering various venues.

Looking at the first few pages, Wu Chang felt nothing, but towards the last pages profiling Li Zaisi's sexual preferences, it included photos of celebrities and girl group members he sought after, mixed with quite a few bed photos.

With a snap, Wu Chang closed the notebook, glancing around. Sword Star and the others hurriedly shifted their gaze, pretending to study the ceiling, the gaps in the floor, or admire the cabin's decor.

Now, come on, guys, this is outrageous.

How could these photos be taken? Did you not check for cameras when booking a room, or did you also go for computer repairs?
