The screen was flooded with comments, but Li Ji was enjoying himself. After all, nothing is more gratifying than sharing what you like with others and getting their approval.
Especially when this operator can only be summoned by him alone.
This is a kind of happiness that takes the desire to share and possess to the extreme.
With this joy in mind, Li Ji also entrusted the selection of the map to Qingye.
It's not that Li Ji didn't want to choose, but some people had already questioned him yesterday, saying that he deliberately tricked Jiu Guo by choosing the picture last time, and that if he was so capable, he should let someone else choose.
Li Ji naturally wouldn't mind slapping Hei Zi in the face.
Therefore, he decided to give the right to select images to Kiyono this time.
In the early stages of Arknights, there's practically no way to withstand the "death round" (a game mode where characters are killed in battle), so regardless of the map chosen, Silent Texas is always a force to be reckoned with.
This also reflects Li Ji's small bit of confidence.
"Boss Qingye doesn't know which of my maps you want to see me directing."
"You think I can choose?" Qingye chuckled, his appreciation for Li Ji growing even stronger. "Then I'll gladly accept your offer."
"Of course I wouldn't lie to Mr. Kiyono."
"Alright, we were trying to clear the weapon material stage this afternoon, why don't you give this a try?"
Qingye picked up a handful of loose scraps of paper. "These are records of our failures. I hope we can be lucky enough to see the short-range magic damage dealer on the streamer's team help us solve them."
Looking at the map that Kiyono had chosen, Li Ji also gained some insight.
The weapon illustrations in this world are from the SK-5's fortress clearing mission in Arknights.
As a map where enemies have high defense, it really tests the operators' damage output capabilities.
Otherwise, it will cause monsters to pile up, and there won't be enough blocking positions, leading to monsters leaking out and putting a lot of pressure on healing.
As for why it's called the Weapon Material Stage.
This is because in the game, SK-5 offers two types of rewards for completing levels—furniture parts and carbon.
Furniture parts are not produced in this world.
Carbon, on the other hand, is the raw material used to make weapons in this world.
Unlike Arknights, weapons in this world need to be crafted.
After all, these are living, breathing people. It's not like a weapon that can't be broken just appears out of thin air because of a single plot point by the author or screenwriter.
Therefore, the SK-5, as the sole source of weapon materials, is one of the essential rifts to conquer in this world.
And it must be said that Kiyono is actually quite kind.
This map is indeed a contest of short-range spell burst damage and high-defense enemies in rotation. If you have an operator like Eyjafjalla with the ability to ignite, clearing the map will definitely be much easier.
Li Ji naturally wouldn't refuse Qingye's kindness and readily agreed to Qingye's request for a picture.
"Let's put the command matter aside for now, but if we're talking about how to clear the game... Mr. Kiyono might want to take a look out the window."
Li Ji paused for a moment, then immediately began the battle, his voice abruptly ceasing at that moment.
When the simulation begins, the microphone connection will be automatically disconnected, and Li Ji will be automatically added to the team's command microphone.
Kiyono took off her headphones and looked out the window.
The sky seemed to be shrouded in a thick gray curtain, and the continuous rain immersed the whole world in a damp and chilly atmosphere.
The sea breeze, carrying a fine drizzle, drifted from the sky, landing on the windowsill and the waves rolling in the wind, splashing up tiny droplets.
Kiyono read aloud softly:
"The waves surged, and the rain showers continued."
Chapter 19: Quiet, I'm thinking.
The members of the White Night Hymn team waited quietly for the sandbox map to load, but their eyes couldn't help but drift towards Texas on the side.
They also suppressed their curiosity and tried to look away.
Unfortunately, she was just too beautiful, and even disregarding her appearance, her aura was absolutely captivating.
This is wartime, and this kind of mafia heiress style is simply unique on the battlefield.
But one person thought differently...
"Tch, the more a young lady-like someone is, the more dangerous they are." Lie Zhu glanced sideways at Texas's figure, secretly thinking, "What warlock would wear clothes like that to the battlefield?"
He was filled with resentment and discontent.
Why were there so few comments when they appeared in the live stream, even though Yan Guo news didn't even allow them to appear?
But in this live stream room, there were only a few small comments.
The cosplayer dressed as a beast-eared girl, who is suspected to be a yakuza heiress, has received so many comments.
It's hard to imagine that this is a live broadcast room for learning technology, rather than some kind of fan meeting.
Was Kiyono really fooled?
While Liezhu was still internally criticizing him, the sand table map was completed.
Li Ji took the lead and sent the vanguard down, and the other team members followed suit, taking out their weapons and standing by.
Following the principle of taking one last look, Lie Zhu looked at the 'young lady'.
He thought to himself that if it weren't for Boss Qingye watching outside, he would definitely have made a few sarcastic remarks about this supposedly professional cosplayer.
But that one glance was something he never expected to happen.
Suddenly, two silver-white scabbards appeared behind the 'sorceress' young lady. With a gentle wave of her arm, she drew out an exquisite longsword that looked like a work of art!
Below the slender hilt is a guard composed of wolf claws and a wolf's head, with the silver-plated wolf claws extending all the way to the spine of the sword, and then down to the blood-red blade.
It's hard to imagine that a girl who is only 1.6 meters tall would use a longsword that is almost as tall as her.
But what puzzled Hunter Candle the most was...
"Wait a minute, isn't she a warlock?"
What sorcerer would pull out two one-handed longswords?!
Not only were the hunters puzzled, but the audience also noticed something was amiss.
"Wasn't it supposed to be a short-axis spellcaster? Why is the spellcaster pulling out a sword? Are you a melee mage?"
"Whether you've played World of Warcraft or not, mages and warlocks can use one-handed swords!"
"But... have you ever seen a mage who wields a one-handed sword in both hands?"
"Holy crap, I'm not kidding, but isn't that the Ringed City Straight Sword from Dark Souls? No wonder she's a mafia princess, she should be wielding a weapon like that!"
"The wet scythe requests to join the battle!"
……
Texas seemed to notice the gazes of her teammates, tilted her head slightly, and asked in a puzzled tone, "Hmm? Is there something you're wondering about?"
The members of White Night Hymn first looked at Texas, then exchanged glances, and then opened their team information.
Only then did they notice that the queue displayed...
The operator class of Silent Texas is... Special Forces!
Special forces?!
No, man.
Who would be so kind as to use a special unit as a magic-based DPS?
The Executioner's damage isn't even enough to be a short-range spell DPS in this dungeon, is it?
But the battle has already begun, and there are still Qingye supervising the battle outside.
Several people, full of questions, even hoped that Kiyono would stop the simulation as soon as he saw this absurd profession.
Unfortunately, the fact that Silent Texas is a special agent is only known to their internal team.
Because Li Ji was the main source of the live stream footage.
If he doesn't open the panel to check the team status, viewers of the live stream won't even know she's a special forces member!
As for why he didn't open the sandbox simulation panel...
Of course, it's because Li Ji was using... the Arknights system.
The audience cannot see it.
From their perspective, Li Ji is now a god who can remember everything. He only needs to look at the information at the start of the game to remember the redeployment and professions.
Therefore, when deploying operators, only those familiar with the operator, or those who have demonstrated their abilities, can give the audience a general idea of what the operator does.
Texas wouldn't be wearing a sign that says "I am a special forces soldier".
"What are you standing there for? Go up there!"
Li Ji looked at his teammates who were standing there in a daze and shouted a reminder through the microphone once again.
At this moment, the operator with the Lord template realized it was his turn to go into battle. Without any hesitation, he quickly stepped onto the grid and began to deal damage.
