Chapter 178: Boss! Killing Silently (Extra Chapter for Monthly Votes)
On the floating light screen at the top, Shao Ling's attribute panel is displayed—
[Name: Shao Ling]
[Level: lv2]
[Strength: 200/200]
[Agility: 200/200]
[Armor: 201/200]
[Charm: 201/200]
If Wen Nan remembers correctly, during the last experience settlement phase on the trial map, Shao Ling received a hundred points, which he evenly distributed across the four attributes.
This brother seems to have some kind of compulsive disorder. After completing the second junior instance, his total experience reached over eight hundred points, yet he still chose to distribute them evenly across the four attributes.
If he had put all eight hundred points into one attribute, he would have already surpassed lv3, perhaps even reaching lv4.
Players pursuing such extreme balance are already very rare. Many players might criticize this method: putting points into everything equals having nothing, the most wasteful way to allocate points.
However...
Wen Nan's gaze briefly shifts from the light screen in front of him to two muscular men behind Shao Ling.
It seems that those two men are so intent on following Shao Ling because of his 201 charm value.
This charm value is the highest Wen Nan has seen so far, besides his own.
Of course, Wen Nan's charm value far surpasses Shao Ling's two hundred points, but Wen Nan pursues the masculine beauty of strength, completely opposite to Shao Ling's charm as a crossdresser—
Men would appreciate Ronnie, as spectators, admire his physique, but no straight man would want to engage further with Ronnie's body.
However, if it's a crossdresser, it's a different matter.
For example, if one day it was revealed that Lin Yichen is a man, but there's a chance to develop a relationship, Wen Nan suspects that many male players would still choose... to pursue a man?
Similarly, Shao Ling's 201 charm value, coupled with his trait as a crossdresser, easily attracts two loyal followers in this all-male player game world.
Speaking of which, players like Shao Ling, who unintentionally improved his charm value due to pursuing extreme balance, are different from the meticulous players like Gu Jinxing who intentionally increase their charm.
This is considered an unexpected joy.
Of course, this "joy" is clearly a happy event for the Wenna Guild, but Wen Nan is unsure if Shao Ling considers having two male player followers a joy.
Anyway, Wen Nan benefits from this situation like a fisherman.
Thinking of this, Wen Nan swipes the floating light screen in front of him, looking at the introduction panel of the two "Gate Gods" brought by Shao Ling, and is genuinely surprised—
[Name: Luo Wei]
[Level: lv4]
[Strength: 1008/1000]
[Agility: 68/1000]
[Armor: 36/1000]
[Charm: 2/1000]
…
[Name: Liang Yiming]
[Level: lv5]
[Strength: 123/2000]
[Agility: 2002/2000]
[Armor: 36/2000]
[Charm: 3/2000]
Beneath Liang Yiming's attribute values, there's an introduction to a talent skill tree—
[Skill: Eye of Map Detection]
[Category: Magic Series]
[Level: 1]
These two players' levels are higher than those of the Wenna Guild, and even most players in this entire game hall.
This game hall is a transition hall for players leaving the junior instance, preparing to enter the first intermediate instance.
Players here have experienced only one trial map and one to two junior instances.
Achieving lv4 in such a short time, even reaching the bronze tier, makes them the elites among this new batch of players.
With their achievements, they could easily join the six major guilds, right?
Thinking this, Wen Nan turns to look at the two of them and indeed sees a corner of a guild invitation letter peeking out of their pockets.
Wen Nan recognizes the invitation at a glance because he once received one himself—it's an invitation from the [Feng Shui Huan] Guild.
Thinking this, Wen Nan can't help but raise an eyebrow.
He himself refused the [Feng Shui Huan]'s invitation and went independent, and now he plans to bring in two more players invited by [Feng Shui Huan] into the guild...
This almost feels like deliberately challenging the large guild.
But Wen Nan doesn't mind much. Recruitment is a fundamental aspect of a guild, and these two players clearly stated that they see more development potential in the Wenna Guild than in the six major guilds.
With such strong determination to join, how could he, as the guild leader, refuse?
Wen Nan waved his hand and sent the guild entry contract to the systems of the three people.
There's only just over two hours left before entering the next instance, and time is pressing. They still have to complete a recruitment task for seven more members, so they must race against time.
Gathering both new and old members, Wen Nan quickly assigned the recruitment and promotion tasks. Everyone had their roles: some posted recruitment ads online, others propped up billboards around the office, and some even took a stack of digital flyers out, ready to ask everyone: Have you heard of Wenna?
Once everyone started working busily, the small living room finally emptied. Wen Nan sat in a two-person sofa that could only accommodate one, checked the countdown—
Less than two hours remaining.
Honestly, he already doesn't have much hope.
It seems they'll have to wait until entering the next map and recruit members in the instance.
