“Stick Brother, Brother Meow, and Tepar were all ambitious and set on striving for first place, while Lumina couldn’t bear to keep loafing around forever.

But they never expected that with all their careful preparations, these contenders would end up simply as runners-up.

Instead, it’s the young people—who have zero enthusiasm for this sort of thing—who’ve claimed a sweeping victory.

Ah, could this be the ‘power of love’?”

“They’re different from us; when they play games, they’re serious and focus on what’s happening.

They don’t get distracted by irrelevant things, unlike us…

Sigh, we’ve been pondering over the so-called ‘truth between reality and illusion’ recently, and just can’t immerse ourselves in it anymore.”

Sister Pomegranate also seemed disheartened.

She sat on a stone nearby, rested her chin on her hand, and said to her companions:

“I used to be one of them, but I followed Lumina and ended up on our side, missing my chance to reach the hall of fame.

It’s all your faults, darlings.

Why couldn’t you try a little harder?”

“Go on, we did use our brains, okay?”

Little Wei Ming also felt indignant, leaning on her Iron Hammer Guard and complaining:

“I’ve said it before, when you’re in Transylvania, don’t worry about all that nonsense.

What’s the use of thinking so much?

You can’t resolve it, right?

Isn’t that just a pure waste of energy?

Better to throw yourself into enjoying life, happiness is what counts, who cares about what’s real and what’s not?”

“Ah yes, yes, you’re absolutely right, can we leave it now?”

“Madam Shui” reached out and pressed down on Little Wei Ming’s head, letting out a sigh:

“If everyone thought as simply as you do, the world wouldn’t have so many conflicts.

But I admit you’re right, the issues we’re contemplating are indeed beyond our resolution.

So, worrying about them is nothing more than a waste of time.

Anyway, even if we were given the chance to quit, nobody would actually leave just like that.

So, I suggest that we should still invest ourselves a bit.

We should wander this land in pursuit of leisurely pleasures and not with any particular aim, letting the truth reveal itself naturally.”

The others nodded in agreement.

Lately, the vague information they’d been getting had been causing them great irritation, especially for Sister Pomegranate.

Now that Madam Shui brought up the subject, they all silently made a pact.

No longer would they search for evidence of reality versus illusion, at least they wouldn’t let it cause worry and anxiety on the surface.

Meng HaHa watched this scene and shook her head with a smirk.

With these folks’ smarts, expecting them not to overthink things was simply impossible…

Intelligent people process thoughts quickly, and sometimes their rampant ideas can’t even be controlled by themselves.

Sigh, knowing too much is often not a good thing; this is probably the so-called ‘curse of knowledge.’

The ladies quickly acknowledged their defeat, but Stick Brother’s team wasn’t ready to concede just yet.

The surviving Tiger Leopard Cavalry Brothers adamantly believed that the developers had made a wrong call.

They didn’t deny the vital role the students played in the battle today, but those students had been wiped out at the beginning of the raid and hadn’t participated in the subsequent attacks.

The rest of the raid was completed by other guilds, and even if the students had done most of the work, it seemed unreasonable not to select a few survivors for the hall of fame in such situations, right?

They complained loudly and even gathered a bunch to vent fiercely in the forums.

But before they could act, they were stopped by Stick Brother.

“Don’t make a damn fool of yourselves!

Get back here and finish sorting the loot!

Before dusk, we still have to get back to our base to oversee the construction of the defense line.”

Stick Brother leaned on his weapon, standing there weakly.

His weakness stemmed not only from his recent lengthy kite-flying of the BOSS under the sunlight but also from Melia, the Vampire Miss, who had just “refilled his magic” once again.

She claimed it was because she had made herself weak by continuously casting speed spells on Stick Brother, so this weakness had to be doubly replenished by him or some nonsense like that—Stick Brother thought that vampire girl was just trying to trouble him on purpose!

“Stick Brother!

We’re expressing our indignation for you!

Not even appreciating our good intentions, and what do you mean by making a fool of ourselves?”

Hearing Stick Brother’s scolding, the Scout Captain of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry named Dou immediately retorted unhappily:

“Are we wrong then?

The students did play a major role; without their genius plan, we couldn’t have breached the Wizard Tower, but including the final Gold BOSS, it was us who defeated it.

Doesn’t that difficulty merit a place in the hall of fame?”

“And so, what do you think that hero title represents?”

Stick Brother almost laughed from anger, sitting on a rock and panting, he snorted and said:

“Do you really think you can be called ‘heroes’ simply by beating an instance?

Before, we didn’t know the arrangement of the last two BOSSes of this team raid, but now that we’ve finished it, you know too.

Let’s not even mention Lame Claw’s terrain battle, you’ve all seen for yourselves the strength of that ‘Profaned King of Bone Biter’ at the end.

I’ll ask you, if it wasn’t for the students luring the giant serpent to fight the King of Bone Biter, causing both to suffer heavy losses, could we have completed this instance in the next eight days with just our current strength?

Absolutely not!

Get it!

The developers never intended for us to complete this raid on our own.

That final Gold BOSS is proof—they set the difficulty to an impossible level for players at this stage to deal with!”
