Chapter 478 – A Good Lesson
“Let me give you a good lesson . ”
Deception was planning on figuring the gap between them himself, but hearing the other side speak, it seemed like he was going to directly tell him where it was . Deception suddenly felt unwilling now . He recognized that Lord Grim might be more skilled than him, but it didn’t mean he was willing to take his advice . Even more so, this guy was acting as if that was the way it should be . There wasn’t the slightest bit of modesty in his words .
If this wasn’t the only direction he could go, Deception would have split up with him a long time ago .
“No matter the circumstance, carefully observe the situation . Gathering valuable information should be the first thing you do . ” Ye Xiu said .
“No sh*t . ” Deception wasn’t going to take his advice .
“You already know this?”
“Hmph……” Deception felt like this question was too stupid . He was too lazy to reply . How could he not know this? Whenever he went scrap picking, the first thing he would do was understand the situation clearly before moving . He wasn’t like other scrap pickers, who just blindly charged in without any plan .
“No . You don’t know this . You don’t even know which buildings have windows . ” Ye Xiu said .
“That… . . ” Deception stared dumbly . He didn’t think he would go there . There was nothing he could say either . He really hadn’t known about it .
“Isn’t it very useful to know which buildings have windows?” Ye Xiu asked .
“Yes…… . ”
“But you don’t know . ”
“……”
“Information is very important!” Ye Xiu instructed .
“Everything was all very sudden . I didn’t have time to prepare . ” Deception made an excuse .
“You just have to open up a map on the internet . If you don’t how to even do this, then it means that you’re not regarding information as important enough . ”
“I’m used to playing on full screen……” Deception himself didn’t think this was a good reason .
“Ha ha . ” Ye Xiu laughed, but didn’t say anything . Deception’s ninja blade slid out slightly from its sheath, but Deception was able to stop himself .
“Right now, we need to escape from these guys . ” Ye Xiu said .
“No really?” Deception had calmed down a lot . This time, these two words were just said as a sarcastic reply to the statement . There wasn’t any energy behind it .
“The first thing we need to do is escape from their line of sight . ” Ye Xiu said .
“Obviously . ”
“Do you know why we have to do this?” Ye Xiu asked .
“So they can’t see us . ” Deception said .
“Are you an elementary school kid? Can’t your answer have a little more depth to it?” Ye Xiu said .
“And your question has so much depth to it . ” Deception remarked sarcastically .
“Our goal is to not let them find us . Not letting them see us is simply to create a space which we can use to accomplish this . ” Ye Xiu said .
“Ha ha, how deep . ” Deception sneered .
“Then do you know where we can find such a space in our situation?” Ye Xiu asked .
“Uh?” This question was a bit sudden . Deception had no idea .
“The answer is intersections!” Ye Xiu answered .
“F*ck!” Deception felt like he had been tricked . Once they turned around the corner, their pursuers wouldn’t be able to see them . It was such a simple matter, but he just had to make the question so unnecessarily complicated, saying stuff like space……
“It sounds like you don’t understand what I mean . ” Ye Xiu sighed, “What I mean is at the intersection, when our pursuers lose sight of us, they’ll scatter . At a two way intersection, they’ll split into two . If it’s a three way intersection, they’ll split into three . By doing this, we peel away our pursuers layer by layer . ”
“Oh?” Deception stared blankly . By finding more intersections and making more turns, it would be easier to shed off pursuers . Deception knew about this concept, but he had never thought of why it made it easier to escape . It wasn’t a difficult concept to understand, but only after understanding it was it possible to deduce many things from just this .
The intersections was just an example of space . The point of space was to make their pursuers lose sight of them in order to force them into having several options .
“Understand this . You have to plan when you’re escaping too . You have to make it your goal to shed off pursuers . Do you have a plan?” Ye Xiu continued .
“I do……”
“Tell me your plan . ” Ye Xiu said .
“Head north and jump into the river . ” Deception said with difficulty . His plan was just a general direction . It wasn’t the type of detailed plan Ye Xiu was talking about . But he had to prove that he had a plan!
“Your plan isn’t bad . ” Ye Xiu replied in a dull tone .
“Okay, from this intersection onwards, follow me closely!” Ye Xiu said as he made a left turn at the intersection ahead .
Deception didn’t say anything . The guy talked about a bunch of theory, but would it even work? If the people behind them were their only pursuers, then Deception wouldn’t need to know this theory . He would just run around in circles a few times and completely escape from them . The problem was that the people behind them were not their only pursuers . There were others elsewhere . After the pursuers behind them told them of their location, more people would gather around to their location . They might shed off a few pursuers, but more would come to fill up the gap endlessly . This was why Deception hadn’t been able to break through the encirclement .
Right now he wouldn’t say anything . He was going to see if this guy’s theory would actually work in practice .
Left turn?
There wasn’t anything special about that . He knew how to make a left turn too .
Deception followed along and made a left turn .
“Go in . ”
Right after making a left, Lord Grim immediately went into a building on the side .
This building had windows . They went through the window and out onto another street .
This building had windows . They went through the window and out onto another street .
Deception admitted he didn’t know there was a window there, but the other side was relying on an online map to know this . If he had an online map opened up, he could make the same decision too .
After going through the window, they flipped onto a tall wall .
Wilderness Town wasn’t just a town with proper streets everywhere . There were small alleyways too . And with the word town in its name, it was obviously not as elaborate as a big city . In reality, most of this leveling area was in the wilderness . The town was just a small corner of the map . It was because of this that the three guilds were focused on this place . As time went on, more and more backup would arrive and escaping would become even more difficult .
Deception just followed behind Lord Grim and didn’t talk, quietly experiencing their route .
It wasn’t over a wide area, but there were a lot of twists to it . In addition, they weren’t running their fastest the entire time . In some places, Lord Grim would stop and wait .
The other side didn’t say anything, so Deception wouldn’t ask . But he was already able to tell that Lord Grim wasn’t simply running around in circles to hide from their pursuers behind them . He was hiding from every single one of their pursuers . It was as if he knew where their enemies were .
Is that even possible? Deception was amazed .
It wasn’t that Lord Grim never encountered any enemies . However, they had never fallen into a trip like Deception had fell into several times before . During these three minutes, they hadn’t fought with anyone . As soon as the enemy saw them, they would immediately choose a different route, flipping over walls, going through windows, running through alleys . Their seemingly random route had goals to it . There were always options to choose from whenever an unexpected event occurred .
The concept of space wasn’t just to create choices for the enemies . It was also leave choices for themselves .
Deception was beginning to understand .
However, in order to do this, having a good grasp of the terrain was crucial . This was information Deception hadn’t thought was important before .
“What do you think?” Ye Xiu suddenly spoke .
“Meh . ” Deception was still very stiff with his words .
“But you’re at least safe now . ” Ye Xiu said .
“Is that a joke? We still haven’t escaped our enemy’s encirclement . We’re still in it . ” Deception said .
“Oh? You’ve been paying attention to our pathing?” Ye Xiu asked .
“……”
“Have you already noticed that you’re already out of combat?” Ye Xiu asked .
“Ah?” Deception was surprised . He just realized that he was out of combat . He could simply log off and he’d be safe .
“Ah?” Deception was surprised . He just realized that he was out of combat . He could simply log off and he’d be safe .
“You can log off now . ” Ye Xiu said .
“And you?”
“Me? I haven’t thought of leaving! I still need to continue scrap picking!” Ye Xiu said .
“……”
“You’re still not going to log off?” Ye Xiu glanced at Deception, “Are you perhaps interested in scrap picking too?”
“That’s my strength!” This was something Deception was confident in . If he said he was the number two scrap picker, no one would dare call themselves number one .
“You’re still green . ” Ye Xiu disapproved .
“……”
“It looks like I need to give you another lesson . ” Ye Xiu said .
Deception was about to explode from anger . Someone actually dared to give him a lesson in scrap picking . He thought it was too hilarious .
“That’s not called scrap picking . What you’re doing is called PKing . ” Deception corrected Ye Xiu .
“Ha ha, in reality, it’s hard to avoid thinking of PKing to get items as a scrap picker . It just depends on if you have the ability to or not, which is why you can only sit and wait for an opportunity, am I right?” Ye Xiu said .
“Of course you’re not right! To put it simply, scrap picking is a way to obtain lots of equipment quickly . If you go PKing one by one, how could that be more rewarding than scrap picking?” Deception said .
“Not as rewarding as scrap picking? If I go to a leveling area and kill whoever I see . In one day, do you think I’ll get more equipment from PKing or do you think you would get more equipment from scrap picking?” Ye Xiu asked .
“You…… PKing all day, you’re a demon!” Deception said . He realized that with his comparison, scrap picking wasn’t as rewarding as PKing . Scrap picking required waiting for an opportunity to appear . For PKing, you create your own opportunities . It was very easy to create one too . You just had to attack a person…… .
“Scrap picking isn’t any better . PKing requires some skill at least . ” Ye Xiu said .
“No, that’s not right…… . ” Deception argued, but he couldn’t say what was wrong .
“What’s wrong? Scrap picking is probably even more immoral than PKing . If nothing else, it’s because scrap picking is more passive . But in reality, from a wishful thinking perspective, your scrap picking is also a type of active playing, no? Your end goal is equipment, so what’s the difference with PKing to get it?” Ye Xiu said, “Rather than being a dirty scrap picker, it’s better to just jump out and kill everyone . ”
