: Slingshot and Harmony
Translator: Lonelytree
At June 20th, 00: 05 am, Feng Bujue entered the game in sleeping mode, he…
Hmm? What did you say? The continuation from the previous chapter? Oh~ About that… we will talk about what happened on the night of 19th June later, we shall skip over it for now. Let us turn our gaze back to the game and talk about Feng Bujue… that’s enough, put down your middle finger, adjust your expression and start reading.

Back to the topic at hand…
After Feng Bujue entered the log in lobby, the first thing he did was still to clear his mail. During this period, the daily strange/harassment/unknown mails that he received had stabilized at around 20 to 30 mails. From the looks of it, it would not change any time soon and for that, Feng Bujue was thankful…
The other thing worth mentioning was there were many new names in his friend list. This could not be helped… in this game where a group could be randomly paired up, an expansion of social circle was inevitable. Take a simple example, Feng Bujue knew Long Aomin and Seven Kills, so when he played with the two of them, he had a chance to run into other members of Blade Edge… after queuing for two scenarios, out of politeness they would send a friend request and bound by the same convention, it would be rude for Brother Jue to reject. The same could be said for Flashes of Sword, Xu Huai Shang, Zen Dream, Shiva, Ambitionist and so on…
!!
Even though some of them did not add Brother Jue as friend, they could still contact Feng Bujue through various channels… after the group of ‘top players’ was only so big, at most there were only 50 of them, they wouldn’t need to look far to find each other. Therefore… Feng Bujue’s friendlist continued to grow just like that. Without even planning for it, the ID in his social tab grew more numerous and almost all of them were the top players… no different from the game’s ranking (of course, there were also people like Atobe among them).
Who would have thought… a weirdo with social ineptitude would become the player with the best connection in Thriller Paradise. He knew a bunch of celebrity players, the leaders of the two largest Anomaly organizations and was familiar with various top presence inside the main universe… Their standing to each other aside, to be able to reach this point was a testament to Brother Jue’s ability…
…
“Ah… I’ve been busying levelling up lately that I have not gotten any time to relax.” After dealing with all the mails, Feng Bujue stretched lazily before the screen. He mumbled, “Since I am alone, I might take some time out for fun.” Brother Jue made to meet his friends at 1 am. He got online 55 minutes earlier because he wanted to queue up for a solo scenario for once.
One had to admit that human was a contradictory question. When one was small, one could not wait to grow up; when one was grown, one could not let go of childhood. When one was studying, one wished to work; when one entered the work field, one would miss the school days. When one was single, one yearned for marriage; but when one tied the knot, one desired the freedom of being single…
On this point, Feng Bujue was no exception. The problem was… when he was playing solo nightmare mode, he wanted to get carried in normal team mode, but after playing too many normal team mode, he felt solo nightmare mode was more fun.
“Hmm… Just as well that yakyuken is almost level 4 already.” As Feng Bujue made the control on the touch screen, he went over the things that he could have dealt with while he was in the scenario. “I am still lacking 2 cards to complete the 12 zodiac set…” One could get limited information from his mumbling so let us get an overview of Brother Jue’s latest status more objectively:

So now let us do a brief conclusion…
