Mistaking a horror game for a romance novel, he unexpectedly became a legend.

After the "King of Terror" competition ended, Song Yi's team jumped directly from outside the top 400 to 32nd place in the team rankings. This ranking was not particularly outstanding among the teams, but the triple-digit jump in rankings made many players suspect that the team was using cheats.

"Holy crap, this team is amazing."

"How did they manage to have fewer than ten team members?"

"Don't you know? One of their members is Lu Xiao, the former chief of the Kunpeng team."

"Wow, that's amazing! Their team still has a lot of open spots, I want to sign up and join the team."

"I've sent out hundreds of resumes in one day but haven't gotten in. I don't know what their hiring criteria are."

Since the game ended, Song Yi has received tens of thousands of applications, and "Ah, right, right team" has become quite popular.

Song Yi has enough recruitment slots, but he is not in a hurry to use them. The team recruits new members to expand its strength, recruiting potential players with low levels or recruiting experienced players with high levels. This way, the experienced players can mentor the new players, and most importantly, it can earn points for the team.

Coincidentally, Song Yi's team had no shortage of points. With Lu Xiao on their side, they could buy whatever they wanted. Although Song Yi himself spent a lot of points, he also earned a lot.

Xiao Bai and Zhao Xin are both simple-minded and quite capable, and Song Yi is very satisfied with them.

Teammates are such important people that you must carefully select them. You must choose those you can rely on, not those who will push you out to take the fall when danger comes.

It turns out that many members of the Kunpeng team have also approached Xiaobai. Since Lu Xiao left the Kunpeng team, the team's performance has been poor, and its ranking has been dropping. After losing Su Lie and several other members, the Kunpeng team has nothing left to offer.

Team leader Jiang Chong's leadership is average. Their team members submit more points than other teams, but without Lu Xiao helping them level up, they can't gain an advantage, so naturally they don't want to submit as many points.

The most important reason people join the team is to get help. The Kunpeng team has nothing left to offer them, so they want to use connections to switch teams.

Xiao Bai sneered at his former teammates who had been contacting him frequently recently. Now they know to beg for help. Back when he was being bullied and asked them to help save Lu Xiao, these people didn't care about him at all. Now they want to join his team? No way.

Song Yi could have taken a break, but since he was currently the lowest-ranked player in the team, he felt bad as the team leader. The next day, after checking with the company and finding nothing unusual, he went back into the game.

Inside the base, Song Yi thought he would be the first to return, but to his surprise, Lu Xiao and Zhao Xin were already there!

Song Yi: "What are you all doing here?"

The three of them had just come in. Zhao Xin was still chewing on some instant noodles. These snacks were bought by Song Yi at the supermarket and brought to the base.

Zhao Xin's eyes lit up with surprise: "Boss, you're here too."

"Our planet's civilization is relatively underdeveloped, and it's not as comfortable as being in a game. Our base is several times better than my home."

Xiao Bai: "I don't have any friends on my planet, so it's the same wherever I am."

Song Yi looked at Lu Xiao: "Then what are you doing here too?"

Lu Xiao: "Uh, they asked me to come and play CS."

After Lu Xiao spoke, everyone in the base stared at each other in disbelief.

Song Yi's gaze swept directly at Lu Xiao like an X-ray.

"Why didn't you call me? Do you have a problem with me being the team leader?"

Song Yi had no doubts about the three people's character, but their behavior of playing games behind his back was going too far.

Zhao Xin quickly explained, "No, boss, please don't misunderstand. It's just that we're using the live-action CS mode provided by the horror game, which is only free for players level 40 and above. The reason we're not including you is because your level is too low."

Song Yi; Zhao Xin, thank you so much.

Lu Xiao broke out in a sweat. Zhao Xin, that big idiot, would have been better off not saying anything at all.

Lu Xiao felt guilty, like he'd been caught doing something wrong: "Actually, there are many games below level 40. Why don't we play together?"

Song Yi snorted coldly and turned to leave. Lu Xiao quickly chased after him.

"Song Yi, don't be angry, where are you going?"

Song Yi: "Go upgrade."

It's just a low level 40, he can take it down in one game.

After leaving the base, Song Yi went to the bulletin board in the lobby, where there was some information about game activities. After looking at it for a minute and finding nothing special, Song Yi prepared to enter the game when Lu Xiao suddenly appeared beside him.

Lu Xiao: "Song Yi, I'm here."

Song Yi looked at Lu Xiao with suspicion: "What are you doing? Why aren't you playing a game that only people above level 40 can play? What are you doing here?"

Lu Xiao quickly shook his head: "I don't want to play anymore, let's enter the game together."

Lu Xiao couldn't continue playing this game. He didn't know why, but he felt that playing it would be letting Song Yi down.

Song Yi: "That's so embarrassing."

Song Yi's gaze was meaningful, making Lu Xiao feel uneasy.

"I don't like playing CS, I just like working, and I'm willing to fight for the team's honor."

Song Yi snorted again. Lu Xiao was now level 95. His leveling speed was slower than a tortoise's growth. He didn't care about that, but it was really good to be able to level up with his teammates.

Song Yi isn't stupid; why wouldn't he use a way to level up quickly?

Song Yi stretched out his arm, and Lu Xiao eagerly followed suit to bind the two of them together, so that they could enter the game together once it started.

After the binding was successful, Lu Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After Song Yi clicked the start button for the game, a flash of light appeared, and both Song Yi and Lu Xiao disappeared from their original spot.

Song Yi is currently level 38, while Lu Xiao's level was compressed from 95 to 38 the moment he entered the game, increasing the game difficulty by 30%.

Song Yi and Lu Xiao opened their eyes again, both of them wearing green military uniforms.

Song Yi: "Is this the army?"

Lu Xiao: "These military uniforms look a bit different from ours."

At this moment, only Lu Xiao and Song Yi were in the room. Song Yi looked around at the surroundings. There was a row of neat beds on the 20-centimeter-high tatami mat.

Song Yi and Lu Xiao exchanged a glance; this scene was very familiar.

The system's voice rang in their ears.

[Game ID 1911.]

Difficulty: SS.

Number of players: 12.

Clearance condition: Survive for 7 days.

Before the background could be explained, a soldier suddenly entered the room, saw Song Yi and Lu Xiao standing there, and rushed over.

"*********, damn it."

Song Yi and Lu Xiao were stunned for a moment because of the language barrier, but when the person uttered the last sentence, Song Yi and Lu Xiao tacitly kicked the person opposite them.
