Chapter 1120: Chapter 1120: Spin-off – Live Streaming World 89

Before dinner, Ada and Natasha returned, bringing news with them.

—-Ada exchanged two strategies for two million points, while Natasha learned another one through her friends’ inquiries.

Accordingly, out of 34 copies, 3 can be safely passed through.

There remain 31 unknown dangers.

At the dining table, Ada said frustratedly, “The other party had four strategies that we needed. I intended to buy them all, but midway through, his companion arrived, recognized me, and said the strategies couldn’t be provided to the thieves of the NB Team, damn it all!”

Natasha sighed and added, “Elsa did the same. She’s in the Wilderness Team. The team leader instructed that no one is to leak any strategies of the team, not through exchange nor high-paying sales, clearly to guard against us. But she did tell me about the situation in Death Mine.

There’s a lot of cover in the mine, and ordinary grenades are ineffective. It’s best to prepare a large amount of smoke grenades before heading there; the monsters hate them. Also, remember to bring lighting equipment.”

Natasha looked at Yuri, “For our next move, we can head to Death Mine and take it one by one.”

Yuri nodded his head, “Scores have just been released, and it’s normal to arouse others’ precautions. Let’s rest for a few days and reassess the situation after that.”

“Alright then…” Ada exhaled deeply with frustration, adding, “Let’s rest for a few days, seeing as our record is definitely unbeatable at the moment.”

Yuri reminded him, “Even though the Queen’s Nest record won’t be surpassed, if other copies’ records get broken during this period, our slot for the year could still be taken. We can’t be careless, and we should check the record rankings at the service station at least once daily.”

Over a hundred copies equate to over a hundred records.

Of course, records aren’t easily broken since each one is near its limit. It’s like in the Olympics, with many events like sprints, long-distance running, high jump, swimming, etc., yet only a handful of athletes break records each year.

Shen Mo spoke indifferently, “It seems that People’s Team broke records earlier than us without encountering any issue in trading strategies.”

“That’s because back then, there was still hope in breaking the score,” Ada laughed scornfully, “After we hit 999 points, hardly anyone goes to the Queen’s Nest anymore; a bunch of cowards with no skill for high scores, just playing dirty tricks.”

Yuri detected the insinuation and slightly frowned, whispering, “This incident might not necessarily be the People’s Team’s doing. Don’t publicize it yet, wait a few more days… whoever it is will eventually slip up.”

Ada glanced at him, seemingly wanting to say something, but in the end, he remained silent.

After chatting for a while, the dinner tasted bland and joyless.

Bai Youwei remained silent throughout, like an obedient and quiet doll, while also aloof and completely detached. After filling up, she got ready to head back to her room for rest.

Shen Mo was about to leave with her when Ada called out to him.

“How about going out for a smoke?” Ada offered a cigarette to him, his eyes carrying deep meaning.

Shen Mo paused for two seconds, accepted the cigarette, and turned his head to Bai Youwei, saying, “You go back to the room first.”

Bai Youwei glanced at Shen Mo, then at Ada, her bright eyes slightly curved up with a hint of mischief, “Oh~ then you guys should stay outside a bit longer after smoking, so the smell doesn’t linger.”

If there are things to discuss, then discuss them a bit longer.

…

Shen Mo and Ada went to the yard; by now, dusk had fallen, the setting sun was dim and yellow, and the sky displayed a tainted blue-purple hue.

Ada lit up a cigarette, and white smoke curled under the lights.

He smoked silently, not speaking immediately, as if he invited Shen Mo out just for the sake of smoking.

Shen Mo was also silent, lighting his cigarette, and vaguely sensing something. He turned his head towards the upstairs window and noticed Bai Youwei peeking out.

He couldn’t help but smile.

Ada saw it too and said with a laugh, “Your wife really cares about you~”
