Chapter 48: Follow-up

"Boss, add me as a friend, ok?" Guan Ling pulled out his phone, "I really don't want to continue staying with Di Kuang and his gang. Can I join you guys?"

Xing Ye shook his head, "Not now. I still don't trust you."

Guan Ling almost went and directly hugged Xing Ye's golden thigh. "Trust is formed with time. As long as we spend more time together, we'll be able to understand one another. Look at how obedient I am, when Di Kuang wanted me to find QR codes for him, I gave him both of the ones I found and didn't try to hide any for myself. I'm way better than him!"

The last sentence was directed at Mr. Ding. Ding Chengshuang's character really was despicable. All he ever did was try to save his own skin.

"I thought it wasn't possible for following fate and opposing fate players to team up? Even if you guys have some kind of special prop, I don't want to team up with you, and that will still hold true in future worlds." Xing Ye said.

Guan Ling scratched his head, "But I want to team up with you. You're an opposing fate player while I'm a following fate player. If we look at the probability based on luck..."

They'll definitely run into each other again in the next world!

Mr. Ding also snickered and looked at Xing Ye, "Then, I-"

Xing Ye looked at him coldly, "You can pray for us to be in the same world, but I'll kill you on sight to take back my points."

Mr. Ding hastily waved his hands, "Nononono, I meant to pray for your success in the next world!"

With that, he turned away and ran, afraid Xing Ye would really kill him.

Cao Qian looked at Guan Ling and Mr. Ding before suddenly speaking, "Di Kuang's group wasn't very strong or coordinated. Our luck actually isn't that bad."

"Wrong. It's not their luck that's good, it's our luck that's bad." Xing Ye said.

"Why?" A doubtful light appeared in Cao Qian's eyes, "We're impromptu teammates that both just finished the novice world, yet even we managed to beat them. Their strength... huh?"

Halfway through her words, Cao Qian stopped, realizing where the problem was.

Seeing Xing Ye's encouraging stare that was just like a "kind" teacher looking at a high school student, Cao Qian answered the question like she was in class. "In fact, Di Kuang's group has very good luck. After all, there's three following fate players, so the system will definitely match them up against relatively easy opponents.

"They're a group of four and were matched up against three players without any teammates. You and I are both newbie players, with zero props or QR codes and only the starting points. Mr. Ding is a player that went through three game worlds and is a natural traitor. Generally speaking, the three of us should've been a mess. Di Kuang's group could've easily overpowered us and take our points."

Xing Ye nodded with satisfaction when he saw Cao Qian could finally analyze problems from the system's angle and added, "Under normal circumstances, the three of us would be forced to team up. As the climax draws near, Mr. Ding would betray us. With both of us having nothing, we would be easily beaten by Di Kuang's group and be forced back to the novice world the next game. After all, their strength was absolutely enough to crush us."

It actually was like that, but the system didn't expect Mr. Ding to betray both sides. Although he was weak and had a poor character, his ability to survive was truly strong. It was obvious just from his starting skills. After failing Xing Ye's test and leaving the group, Mr. Ding immediately clung onto Di Kuang's group, successfully becoming a ticking time bomb and giving Xing Ye vital information. Even knowing Xing Ye's animosity towards him, right after betraying Di Kuang, he was shameless enough to barter a QR code he had found for a mission prop from Xing Ye, winning 2000 points and the final 100 quest points. His survival skills were even stronger than a cockroach's. It was disgusting, but something you just couldn't exterminate.
