When the other four arrived at the scene, what they saw was Little Sweet Chris rushing toward Hopeful Heart.

That cry of “gege” almost made William Turner’s heart go numb. “Are you sure you don’t know her?”

In the game, after joining a team, there are two options: one is for your character to follow the team leader automatically, requiring no operation; the other is to control your own character, but you can only move within a limited range.

Henry Clark pressed the hotkey to cancel following, took a step back, and dodged the person falling from the sky. “I don’t know her.”

Chris Brooks never expected Henry Clark to catch him, so in the last few seconds before landing, he used a jump to step on the nearby cliff, landing unscathed right in front of Hopeful Heart.

He glanced roughly at the team Hopeful Heart was in. Hmm, three healers.

To flirt with girls, he even gave up monster-killing efficiency. Truly a scumbag’s style.

Chris Brooks grumbled inwardly, while controlling his character to dawdle and hide behind Hopeful Heart, sounding very aggrieved: “God of War gege… someone is trying to kill me.”

The people from Xianren Pavilion happened to hear this and quickly exchanged messages in the team chat.

“Hopeful Heart? Why is he in the wild map?”

“Haven’t you seen the three girls in his team? Probably flirting, tsk, Fairy is really pitiful.” The warlock paused. “But… this Little Sweet Chris’s voice is really nice.”

“Nonsense, otherwise how do you think that big shot in the guild got tripped up?! But what’s her relationship with Hopeful Heart?”

“No idea. So what do we do now? If Hopeful Heart steps in, we probably can’t beat him…”

Because there’s a penalty for being killed in retaliation, everyone in the team hesitated, standing still and not making a move.

“…Don’t rush, let me ask.” The warlock said, then switched the channel to current.

“Hey… Hopeful Heart.” He swallowed the words “God Xiang.” “Do you know her? She just blew up Fairy’s gear.”

Henry Clark frowned.

[Current]Hopeful Heart: Who is Fairy.

Everyone: “……”

Everyone present except William Turner immediately stood still, and the long silence seemed to say just two words—“scumbag.”

[Current]Little Sweet Chris: It was Fairy Grace who tried to kill me first. Was it wrong for me to defend myself and kill her in return? [question]

[Current]Little Sweet Chris: God of War gege QAQ, they just want to blow up the treasure map you gave me. So mean.

[Current]Little Sweet Chris: I won’t let them get their way!

Everyone fell silent again.

William Turner couldn’t hold it in anymore, laughing so hard he bent over: “You even gave her a token of affection, and you still say you don’t know her?!”

Henry Clark corrected him with a dark face: “I didn’t give it.”

He snatched it, using a skill with 79 damage, right under his nose.

The people from Xianren Pavilion spoke up again: “Hopeful Heart, does this mean you’re getting involved?”

[Current]Hopeful Heart: No.

[Current]Little Sweet Chris: See?! My gege means you all better scram now! He might consider not killing you! [angry]

[Current]Hopeful Heart: ?

[Current]Little Sweet Chris: Gege sent a question mark. If you don’t run now, you’ll lose your gear! [pounding table]

The warlock was the leader of this hunting party. He was already shaken by Fairy Grace losing her gear, and now he was even more hesitant.

“…Fine, just you wait.”

After saying this, he used his sect skill to chant in place for half a second, then quickly led the team away from the scene.

Henry Clark, who was just about to type: “……”

With that little courage, you dare to hunt others?

In the game, the little fox fairy was jumping around him, even using an in-game emote to blow him a kiss.

[Current]Little Sweet Chris: Thank you, gege, I was so scared I almost died [crying]

Henry Clark wanted to say something, but stopped halfway through typing.

Forget it, why bother getting tangled up with a female scammer.

Instead, William Turner got interested.

[Current]Long Road: What are you scared of? With your skills, they can’t catch you anyway.

[Current]Little Sweet Chris: I was just so scared I performed super well QAQ. Luckily God of War gege was here.

[Current]Long Road: That treasure map, did Lao Xiang really give it to you? Isn’t that thing bound?

Henry Clark frowned: “Why do you talk so much? Are we running the dungeon or not?”

“Aiya, I’m just asking a couple of questions.” William Turner said, “Don’t you think this girl is really interesting?”

“No.”

[Current]Little Sweet Chris: Mm-hmm, I was planning to dig up something good and give it to God of War gege, but halfway through, the Xianren Pavilion people showed up QvQ

William Turner slapped his thigh: “Nice one, Old Clark! The girl is totally devoted to you!”

Henry Clark sneered: “Yeah? Why don’t you date her? The kind where your account gets stolen.”

Henry Clark didn’t care about gossip. He usually didn’t even look at the world chat. He only knew about the female scammer because William Turner told him.
