Chapter 30 Tactics
Chapter 30 Tactics
Shu Hua had only asked the question casually, but then she saw the comments section discussing the ranking system.
Then it dawned on me—oh, she was still playing PvP.
Well, she couldn't let everyone think she was neglecting her duties, so she casually said, "Well, let's check the enemy situation first."
We don't necessarily have to be number one.
Thinking about it this way, it's such a hassle to have 10 people working on each score change.
Let's skip this round, it seems like too much trouble.
The player in last place can still determine the strategy for the next round and gain the initiative.
Okay, everyone listen to my command, we're stopping the fight.
Try to get last place!
This is good enough; it's a score that's not embarrassing enough.
I'm not slacking off, I just feel that if we continue playing, I won't be able to give instructions and relying solely on the comments section might lead to chaos.
In particular, isn't the "stealing tower" tactic popular in PvP?
This isn't something that can be done by one person alone; we don't have an advantage in that area.
If we end up losing because of a stealth attack, everyone will be unhappy, right?
To avoid being upset about this later, we might as well cut our losses now.
This is also a tactic, not a strategy. We are laying the groundwork for the final game, for the sake of the overall score.
The second-place finisher won't be penalized this time, and I think if we can get two first-place finishes...
In terms of overall score, they shouldn't fall out of the top two.
What do you think?
I personally feel that this is the most effortless way to do things.
We already have at least 1 points, so we won't lose face. If the other two teams don't work hard, we'll have an advantage in points.
If the latter two teams step up their game, we can take the initiative in the next round.
Wow, you guys are amazing! How did you manage to gather 10 people so quickly?
Awesome!
1 points isn't low at all!
Shu Hua originally only intended to say a few words casually, somewhat like saying whatever came to mind from her dream.
But as they talked, an idea suddenly came to them.
The more I talked about it, the more convinced I became.
[Wait, what did I just hear? Was that Hua Zai directing a PvP battle?! Was that really him?!]
[Other streamers: Go go go! First place! My streamer: Go go go! Last place! Hua Zai, you're amazing!]
However, I must say, it actually makes a lot of sense.
[The Cat Tactical Command Center is officially established! Command Center address: Huazai's beanbag chair! Commander: The just-woke-up milky white cat!]
I will always support Commander Cat!
[Since we were going to get last place, why didn't we just not rank up at all? (whispering)]
I agree. If they wanted to come in last place, they should have said so from the beginning. Now that they've already scored enough points, they're not pushing anymore. It just feels...
[The haters have improved; their rhetoric is quite good. I almost believed them.]
First of all, the fans' desire to top the charts was voluntary; the artist had no say in the matter from the beginning.
Now that you mention it, I suddenly feel sorry for the character, hahaha!
[Hua Zai: Although it was my match, it has nothing to do with me (shrugs)]
Besides, Huazai is just expressing an opinion; he's not forcing us to agree.
My wife even gave us her approval. This point in our relationship is important; at least we're not ashamed.
[Exactly, those haters are truly ruthless; they actually want us to lose without a fight.]
Even if we come in last place, it depends on what kind of last place it is. Our previous efforts in the rankings weren't in vain.
All I know is that my wife praised us for being awesome (with roses)
[Life is but a dream: The little streamer makes a good point. We're not in a good position at the top of the leaderboard, but we're in a good position now, able to attack or defend as needed.]
[I agree with Meng Zong's comment. Those who top the charts have worked hard. Now let's enjoy the artwork dancing! (doge)]
[You'd better stay awake tonight, I'm afraid you'll get assassinated by Hua Zai (winking)]
Shu Hua also saw the provocative words. Although she knew it was deliberately trying to cause trouble, she also felt that there was some truth to it, so she explained it further.
"Yes, I just thought of that too."
It might be a bit late to say this, but...
We're competing, and even if we're aiming for last place, we want to come in last with dignity.
So, I think it's really amazing that you guys gave me 1 points before.
That's very impressive; everyone else will probably be surprised.
People probably think I can only compete on the overall leaderboard, and I probably can't even fill the top ten spots, let alone score any points.
Hehe, they'll definitely be shocked when they see the scores later.
Shu Hua's sly and smug words made her fans, who already didn't think she was wrong, even happier.
This made the fans who were slightly affected by the haters feel relieved.
Originally, the fans' efforts to rank up were spontaneous, which everyone knew.
If we're talking about who's to blame, it's really not fair to blame Shu Hua.
At most, one could criticize her for being unreliable and careless.
But now that she's said this, she seems quite proud of the contributions she's made to her fans.
What more can I say? I can only praise how cute the baby is.
What fans fear most is not spending money, but spending money and not being valued, or even being criticized.
[Kid, since we're not going to participate in the rankings anymore, what should we do? Sitting around like this is so boring!]
[+1! How about we go 'spy' on the enemy? Let's see what the neighbors are up to!]
[Not bad, not bad. Let's see how close we are to last place. Are we secure?]
Seeing that her fans had no objections, Shu Hua became resentful again, put on a stern face, and said, "Just now, I saw someone wanting to see me dance."
There are always treacherous subjects trying to harm me. Hmph, drag them out of here!
But it's also good for gathering intelligence; I can even turn on my microphone. Whose orders should we take?
[Speaking of which, I hope Huazai didn't hurt himself. It's only been a few minutes, let's take a break.]
[That's true. Even though the sofa is soft, once you've sunk into it, it's best to rest for a bit.]
I'm not used to you guys being so gentle all of a sudden.
[+1, is there some kind of joke that I missed? (scratching head)]
[Life is but a dream: Little host, sit down and rest for a bit~ Don't eavesdrop, you probably won't hear anything anyway~]
[Hmm, by the time it reached Mr. Meng, the flavor was somewhat right, but there's still something strange about it.]
Putting aside the comments section, even Shu Hua wasn't used to being treated so gently all of a sudden. She scratched her cheek and unconsciously took a screenshot of her face.
If she couldn't figure it out, she stopped thinking about it.
Shu Hua is the type of person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force. Since everyone is showing her such concern, she naturally won't be ungrateful.
"Okay, then I'll sit down and rest for a bit."
"Brother Meng, what nonsense are you talking about? I understand you!"
【Life is but a dream: Okay, you understand. I was just worried you'd get tired. Be good~】
[Mr. Dream spoils me so much!]
[No, I'm really not used to this sudden shift to sweet and romantic themes!]
Which episode did I miss? Can someone please tell me?
At this moment, someone in Shu Hua's fan group (all of whom are casual fans) finally explained why the style of the comments section had suddenly changed.
It turns out that some people had already gone to other live streams to find out after Shu Hua said she was no longer trying to improve her score.
It was discovered that Zhuying's live stream was subtly belittling Shuhua.
In Tao Tao's live stream, the atmosphere among the big brothers was also unusual; that big brother Xinghai had quite a few opinions about Shu Hua.
Even Xue Nuo has a touch of tea-like charm, subtly reminiscent of Shu Hua.
Based on Shu Hua's personality, if she were eavesdropping on a live stream, it would likely be one of the three mentioned above.
They didn't want Shu Hua to be affected by negative comments, so they changed their approach to persuade her to give up eavesdropping.
Although they knew that even if Shu Hua heard it, she probably wouldn't take it too seriously.
But in the end, it just affects my mood. Why bother with something so unnecessary?
Of course, it's true that some comments are warning that Shu Hua might feel uncomfortable.
After all, his head hit the sofa directly; who knows if he'll feel uncomfortable?

[Xue Nuo's Growth Diary Livestream]
In Xue Nuo's live stream, the background music was soft and soothing, which complemented her deliberately softened voice.
"We are currently in third place, and the gap between us and Yan Yingjie's family in second place is very small. We can make another push so that everyone can get another 'Lucky Bag' (5000 Yin Coins)."
Let's aim for second place first, then take a break.
Let's see how Yan Ying's family reacts. If they follow suit, then we'll follow suit too.
Let's not widen the gap yet, and see if we can make Yan Ying's family lower their guard.
Then, for those of you on the leaderboard, when we steal the tower in the last 30 seconds, make sure you all have one "Whispers of the Stars" (20000 Sound Coins). That should be enough.
……
【"Snow Top Coffee" is giving away 5 "Lucky Bags" (5000 Audio Coins each) in the live stream "Xue Nuo's Growth Diary"】

……
As soon as Xue Nuo finished speaking about chasing the wind, the ten people on the top ten list started giving gifts one after another, completely following Xue Nuo's instructions.
The top three winners, though it wasn't necessary, seemed to be doing so intentionally to respond, and also sent out lucky bags.
Fans who witnessed this scene all commented on how adorable the baby was.
After directing the ranking campaign, Xue Nuo's voice suddenly changed subtly, drifting out with a hint of "unintentional" sentiment, as if in casual conversation.
"Speaking of which, I'm really a little envious of Sister Shuhua. I just saw her dancing and having fun."
There's no need to worry about the rankings.
I'm so envious of her being able to win effortlessly, unlike us who have to calculate the point difference and keep our brains working.
I feel like my brain is about to stop working.
It's good to have someone flattering you.
This kind of treatment is probably even better than what Sister Tao Tao receives.
"Sister Zhuying, I misspoke earlier. Compared to Sister Taotao, Sister Shuhua is definitely luckier."
As if suddenly realizing her slip of the tongue, she abruptly stopped speaking, then adopted a flustered and regretful tone, quickly trying to cover it up:
"Oh dear! Did I...did I say something wrong?"
I'm so bad at talking! Please don't mind me, and don't spread rumors! Just pretend I didn't say anything!
I must have been too stressed watching the rankings and my mind just suddenly went blank, so I just blurted out this.
Let's take another look at Yan Ying's score on the leaderboard.
She quickly steered the conversation back to the chart-topping rhythm, as if what she had just said was simply a spontaneous thought that came to mind when she suddenly relaxed.
Especially with her innocent-looking face, it's easy to believe her; she's just young and quick-tongued, and there's no malice in her words.
It's okay, it's okay. We all know Nuobao, he just speaks too quickly, it's normal.
[That's right, Nuobao isn't afraid, it's just a few words.]
[That's right, and besides, not a single word Nuobao said is wrong.]
We still need to be mindful of social niceties, but Nuobao, don't take it to heart. We all know you didn't mean it.
[Nuonuo is right, at least Taotao campaigned seriously, but that Shu Hua guy is just lucky.]
I feel sorry for Nuonuo, she has to work hard on her own, unlike some people who are "lucky" (sadistic).
Hearing Nuobao say that, it's true. Zhuying has approached the wrong person; she should have looked for that "Crown Princess."
[Wait a minute, something's not right here. Why are they suddenly mentioning Shu Hua?]
[No, it's fine for streamers to participate in rankings, why criticize others? I can practically smell the tea through the screen~]
[Winning by doing nothing], [Good luck], [Can't compare]... Key elements to identify! The classic three-part combo!
[Hilarious! A perfect "no malice intended" ending. Shall we get a tea ceremony master's graduation certificate?]
Xue Nuo looked at the rapidly scrolling comments, her face still showing the innocence and panic of someone who had "accidentally said the wrong thing," and said, "Nuonuo really didn't mean it that way..."
But inside, she was completely calm; she was doing it on purpose.
I had only heard of Shuhua before, but I didn't know much about it.
She did fight with Tao Tao once, and in her opinion, Tao Tao's family was already very powerful.
Unexpectedly, I lost to Shu Hua on the overall leaderboard.
Xue Nuo then realized that she needed to tie herself to Shu Hua, no matter what reason she used.
Hanging out with people who are wealthy will inevitably boost your own family's economy.
As for "tea"? What does that matter? It's not a bad thing that it gets discussed.
There are plenty of tea masters on the music platform, and they still attract a lot of viewers.
Do the audience really not understand? Of course not, they just don't care.
People watch live streams to have a good time, not to become analysts.
Each sentence needs to be analyzed to understand its meaning.
