Jian Yiling used her actions to tell Zhai Yunsheng and Yu Xi that she agreed to join them.

After she sat down, she turned around and asked, “Which game?”

Yu Xi was speechless. “...”

She agreed to join them without knowing what game they were playing?!

“We’re playing a game called Zerg Invasion. The game is a little violent. Please be mentally prepared,” Yu Xi warned Jian Yiling. He paused for a moment before he convinced himself that the warning wasn’t enough, “If you want, you can turn off your computer once you enter the game. Don’t wear the headphones either, the sound effects are pretty scary.”

The sound effects were especially terrifying when the Zerg was approaching. The effects were realistic and not to be taken as a joke!

Jian Yiling didn’t reply to Yu Xi. She opened the game and clicked the ‘Register’ button.

The last time that she had played this game, she had used Qin Chuan’s account. She hadn’t registered for her own account back then.

When Yu Xi saw Jian Yiling register for an account, his worries deepened.

If Yiling hadn’t played this game before, she would have no idea of how scary this game would be...

If she got scared, how would he explain to Grandma Jian?

Yu Xi suddenly began regretting the decision to bring Jian Yiling over. He shouldn’t have agreed to Zhai Yunsheng’s request just because he wanted to gain elo!

When she reached the section of entering an ID, Jian Yiling paused for a moment.

Then she randomly typed a string of letters onto the keyboard.

She didn’t pay attention to the name at all.

However, before Jian Yiling clicked confirm, Yu Xi stopped her.

“Yiling, write an ID that you can remember. It’ll be more convenient for us to add you as a friend as well.”

Jian Yiling paused for a moment as she took in Yu Xi’s suggestion.

She thereby changed her ID to J10.

Hmmm.. The username was so simple.

Then, Yu Xi glanced over at Zhai Yunsheng’s account. Zhai Yunsheng had just entered his ID, ZYS.

Following which, Yu Xi took a look at his own ID: Gang Leader of Ace Shooters.

Emmm... Was it time for him to consider changing his ID?

After players registered, players could pick a character model. There were all sorts of models to choose from. They ranged from female to male to middle-aged men, and even lolitas.

Jian Yiling was about to randomly choose a middle-aged man as her character model.

Once again, Yu Xi stopped her in her tracks. He was about to snatch Jian Yiling’s mouse away.

“Yiling, why don’t you pick a character that fits your image a little better? In the game, I don’t want to call a middle-aged man younger sister. It would feel quite weird...”

Whilst Yu Xi attempted to persuade Jian Yiling, Zhai Yunsheng reached over with his hand and picked the lolita character model for her. Then, he quickly pressed the confirm button.

By the time Jian Yiling turned her head around to look at Zhai Yunsheng, his gaze had returned to his computer.

After Jian Yiling finished registering, she immediately received friend requests from the two people beside her.

Once she accepted their request, she got dragged into their lobby.

This game could be played as a team. When Jian Yiling had played previously, she had played in the single-player mode.

In the multiplayer mode, the minimum number of players in a team was two and the maximum was four.

As of now, the ranks of this game from highest to lowest respectively was: Challenger, Grandmaster, Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze.

Jian Yiling took a glance at Zhai Yunsheng’s rank. His rank was Challenger, the highest in the game.

Yu Xi’s rank was Platinum. And of course, her newly created account was undoubtedly the lowest rank, Bronze.

Before the game started, Yu Xi once again reminded Jian Yiling, “Yiling, if you get scared, just turn off your computer. Don’t worry, Master Sheng is amazing at this game. He’ll carry us!”
