Chapter 1856: Chapter 1701: Escape Game 53

It seems like if we want to team up in the game, we have to follow the method Miao Shuangshuang and Xiao Zhongjing used before, trying to stay close and enter the game at the same time.

Miao Shuangshuang simply sent messages to Chen Fei and Lin Yu, along with her address, inviting them to visit her if convenient; otherwise, she could wait for Xiao Zhongjing to arrive and they could go see them together.

After sending the messages, Miao Shuangshuang surfed the forum while waiting for messages from Chen Fei and Lin Yu. Fortunately, it didn’t take long before they replied, saying they would come to see her soon.

However, since Chen Fei and Lin Yu were in different cities and had some matters to handle, it would take about three to four days for them to reach Miao Shuangshuang. She wasn’t in a hurry though.

She chatted briefly with Chen Fei and Lin Yu, then browsed the forum. There were a lot of people chatting on the forum, but no useful information was shared since players wouldn’t reveal their level-passing experiences.

However, there were recordings of skilled players passing levels available for exchange with survival days. Miao Shuangshuang noticed that each video required nearly a hundred days of survival to access.

Miao Shuangshuang wasn’t going to waste her hard-earned survival days on this, so she wasn’t interested and exited.

Instead of browsing the forum, she decided to go out for some fun and relaxation, but before she could do so, she received a call from Chi Qing.

Chi Qing sounded a bit tired on the phone: "Sister Shuangshuang, I finally cleared my third game. I just saw your message. Where are you? I’ll come to find you."

Miao Shuangshuang replied with her information: "Was this game exhausting? You sound tired."

On the other end, Chi Qing spoke with a bit of frustration: "It’s nothing, just encountered a dumbass who dragged us down, failing himself and almost taking everyone down with him. It was close."

Miao Shuangshuang raised an eyebrow, sympathizing: "That’s really unfortunate for you."

Such situations must indeed be guarded against. Some people have poor stress resistance and malicious intentions, those who can’t survive may want to drag others down with them.

With this thought, Miao Shuangshuang became even more determined to find a qualified team to play the game with, ensuring they always cleared levels together.

Chi Qing also felt incredibly unlucky. Although he scored well in this game, he wasn’t able to feel happy at all, only exhausted physically and mentally.

"Sister Shuangshuang, send me your location, and I’ll come to you."

Miao Shuangshuang sent over her location. After Chi Qing saw it, he felt much better: "Sis, you’re not far from me, wait for me, I’ll be there in three hours."

Three hours later, Chi Qing indeed arrived, extravagantly spending money on a taxi that took him across two cities.

Chi Qing’s appearance hadn’t changed much, but his demeanor did, looking less innocent, more mature, like an adult despite his youthful face.

Upon seeing Miao Shuangshuang, Chi Qing cheerfully smiled, shattering the mature impression, remaining the same innocent big boy.

"Sister Shuangshuang, I missed you! I almost didn’t make it back, dealing with unreliable people this time," Chi Qing said with a lingering fear on his face.

Miao Shuangshuang offered sympathetic words of comfort, then took Chi Qing out to eat, as he had quite a long journey, arriving just in time for dinner.

That evening, the news of Xiao Zhongjing leaving the entertainment industry exploded online. As a top trending star, her fans were most obsessive and passionate.

The fans couldn’t accept Xiao Zhongjing’s exit; some desperately tried to retain her, others lashed out at her company, believing it must have wronged her, causing her departure.

Among them were fanatic fans who threatened to commit suicide if Xiao Zhongjing dared to leave. Fans tried numerous tactics hoping she’d change her mind and stay.

However, Xiao Zhongjing was steadfast like a rock, determined to withdraw, quickly cutting all ties with anything related to the entertainment industry.

When Xiao Zhongjing finally finished handling everything and felt at ease to find Miao Shuangshuang, Lin Yu, Chen Fei, Xu Qiangzhong, and Chi Qing had already gathered.

In the following days, Miao Shuangshuang focused on training everyone. Though they couldn’t, like her, develop Inner Strength with Main God Power to cheat.

But after physical enhancement, it was still possible to boost combat ability to the personal limit. Surprisingly, Xiao Zhongjing had the best aptitude for martial arts among them.

However, the fastest progress was made by Chen Fei and Lin Yu, as they were veteran players with the strongest body enhancements, making their movements more agile and progress faster.

Originally, Miao Shuangshuang planned to take a twenty-day break with the survival days, but due to everyone’s enthusiasm for martial arts, they continued until just before the next mission.

Chi Qing, Miao Shuangshuang, Xiao Zhongjing, Xu Qiangzhong entered the game at the same time, while Lin Yu and Chen Fei, being veteran players, had a year of rest and weren’t yet due to reenter.

However, they decided to try joining everyone in the game, despite Miao Shuangshuang and Xiao Zhongjing succeeding once through close proximity.

But Miao Shuangshuang couldn’t be sure if this method was foolproof, as the previous success might have been coincidental.

After all, if just being close in proximity allowed entry into the same game, there’d be no need for the team feature in the game.

If acquaintances could simply meet in real life and then team up, there wouldn’t be a need for such cumbersome team formation in the game.

Though team formation offered significant convenience by letting players, even if miles apart in the real world, enter the same game field together, this convenience wasn’t too crucial.

Considering that game players generally had no shortage of money, resting most of the time without daring to do much, gathering together seemed quite simple, making this team-up convenience somewhat redundant.

To test precisely whether proximity indeed allowed entrance into the same game, Miao Shuangshuang even booked a presidential suite and laid out a large floor bed inside.

They laid all the blankets from the room on the floor, then wore outfits suitable for spring, summer, autumn, and winter, lying head to head in a circle on the floor bed.

Everyone closed their eyes together and chose to enter the game.
