"Current quest completed. All main quests have been completed.
"You have completed the scenario. Automatic teleportation in 180 seconds."
As the last member of Golden Warhammer dissolved into white light, the system announcement rang in the ears of the four members of Underworld Frontline.
"Look, it's been exactly two hours." Feng Bujue turned around and smiled at the empty space.
Sam Montier, who stood to the side, saw this and asked, "Who are you talking to?"
"Ha … Nothing, just talking to myself." Feng Bujue answered casually and changed the topic. "Alright, it's time for me to leave. The next time we meet … I hope you've dealt with your two old friends from Phantom Church. Before Ragnarok, I'll try to meet one of you again. "
"I can't promise …" Sam Montier replied darkly, "… their attitude toward this matter."
"It's fine." Feng Bujue said. "I believe … as long as their intelligence and ambition are on par with yours, they have no reason to reject my suggestion. Of course … if there's a need, I'll show them what I can do. "
"Okay then …" Sam Montier's expression turned complicated. "Until next time."
"Until we meet again," Feng Bujue replied, morphed into white light, and teleported away.
…
"The scenario has been completed. Calculating reward.
"Obtained Game Coins: 60000
"Obtained Equipment: None
"Completed Missions: 1/1
"Completed Special and Hidden Missions: 0. Unlocked World-building: None
"Obtained Skill Points: 782
"Additional Game Coins from Skill Points: 78200
"Scenario Cleared Reward: Preliminary Round Points + 3
"Calculation complete. Please continue."
When he returned to the log-in lobby, a short checklist appeared on the touch screen.
Since Feng Bujue's level had been maxed out, the EXP reward was naturally gone. In terms of items, Brother Jue did not get any. Other than that, the competition mode only retained the 'forced disconnection when the Terror Points were too high' mechanism, but it did not activate the Terror Points reward system, so the related items had been removed.
"Okay, we've won the first battle." Brother Jue looked at the screen and said in a relaxed tone.
Then, he used the social tab to confirm that Xiao Tan and the rest had left the scenario. After waiting for about a minute, Brother Jue sent a request to enter the conference room. Soon, Xiao Tan clicked confirm.
"Hi, did you guys have fun?" The moment he stepped into the meeting room, Feng Bujue put on a smug expression and told his teammates in a smug tone.
"We spent more than an hour looking for equipment and half an hour clearing monsters." Spirity summed up what they had done in the first match with a single sentence.
"But … overall, we are still quite happy. After all, we won," Hua Qian said.
"That's right. Hunting monsters for equipment is much easier than fighting people," Xiao Tan replied with a shrug.
Feng Bujue smiled at his teammates before his eyes fell on Ruo Yu. "Are you satisfied?"
"Haha." Ruo Yu uttered these two syllables expressionlessly.
Seeing her expression, Brother Jue's smile deepened, but he knew when to stop, so he did not say anything more. Instead, he said, "Then … shall we take a short break to prepare for the second round?"
"Sigh …" Hearing that, Ruo Yu sighed. "I think you should just watch the second match. I have to admit … having you fight is a waste of resources. "
"It's good that you understand." Feng Bujue lay down on the sofa and used his hands as a pillow. "I told you … we are very strong. Other than a few extremely strong teams, most teams won't be able to pose much of a threat to us. Currently, the four of you are not at max level yet, so there is still room for improvement. Furthermore, the preliminaries are based on points. Even if you lose one or two matches, you won't be eliminated immediately. So … before the semi-finals, I think it's better for me to watch. "
Hearing Brother Jue's comment, Xiao Ling could not help but raise her eyebrows and tease him. "Ah … You look like you are invincible …"
"He looks like he's saying, 'This level of battle is too boring for me to fight' …" Hua Jian added.
"Even though I sound arrogant …" Feng Bujue looked at his teammates and shrugged. "But it's the truth, isn't it?"
"Erm … right, Brother Jue." Xiao Tan seemed to have remembered something. He looked at Brother Jue and said, "Do you remember the scenario where we first met Brother Long? The monsters in the scenario … "
"They're all Sam Montier's Phantom Demons." Feng Bujue knew what he was going to say, so he said, "I was just about to tell you guys what I did in the scenario earlier. Listen to me …"
…
At the same time, inside a luxurious office at the Dream Company's headquarters.
A demon by the name of Woody was sitting in the executive chair behind the desk. He held a glass of iced alpaca milk and sipped it gently.
"We did win." Vincent's voice came from the side of the room.
Even though he wasn't in the room a second ago, Woody wasn't surprised by his appearance.
"Heh heh heh … Isn't that a matter of course?" Wu Di was still smiling wretchedly.
"Now that Feng Bujue has dragged the Phantom Demon Church into the game …" Vincent said as he walked toward the desk. "… This will probably affect the development of Ragnarok, right?"
"Hehehe … The ending of Ragnarok is destined. Be it him or anyone else, nothing can change it," Woody replied with a smile. "Of course … Feng Bujue knows that. So … his plan isn't focused on the 'process' or 'ending' of Ragnarok but after the 'ending'. "
"Skipping the unchangeable fact and focusing on the 'third phase'?" Vincent asked in a low voice.
"Humph … If it were you or me … we'd do the same." Woody's face darkened.
At this point, Vincent walked to the front of a sofa and sat opposite Woody. "It seems that in terms of 'intelligence,' he has gained your approval."
"Hehehe … Don't joke around. He's a masterpiece made with 'that person's' genes. In terms of 'intelligence,' we don't have to worry about it from the beginning," Woody replied with a smile. "I think he's lagging behind in other aspects."
"Heh … So, you and Simon 'put on that show'?" Vincent laughed as well.
"Hehehe … I really can't hide anything from you …" Woody laughed even more wickedly as he happily took a sip of the cloudy white liquid in his hand.
"Well said … But your plan is killing two birds with one stone," Vincent said. "You and Simon rehearsed your lines in advance and chose to 'perform' in a script where time and space intersects. Everyone knows that … in that kind of environment, there will be more or less some spies from various forces lurking. So, after this good show of 'killing one to warn the others', the news that 'even Woody's violation of the rules has been wiped out by the referee' will soon spread. "
"Hehehe … In this way …" Woody continued Vincent's words and continued, "Simon's work will progress more easily, and I … will get a 'broken and rebuilt' Feng Bujue."
"The so-called win-win situation …" Vincent smiled. "No wonder Simon agreed to act with you." His smile suddenly turned cold. "But … in your conversation, you inexplicably dragged me into it. What kind of mentality is that?"
"Hehehe …" Woody laughed a few times, drank another mouthful of alpaca milk, and said again, "It's very simple … to increase the credibility."
"Understood." Vincent quickly returned to his breezy demeanor. "I'll take this as a compliment from you." After saying this, he adjusted his sitting posture and asked, "Well … Since we have already talked about 'that person', then I'll ask, when are you going to tell him the origin of 'Feng Bujue'?"
"Of course …" Woody tilted his head. "When I think it's time to tell him …"
When he said this sentence, his tone and expression were extremely annoying, and his answer … was equivalent to not answering at all.
"Hahaha …" Vincent seemed to have heard a very funny joke and immediately laughed out loud. "Okay … Then I might as well guess …" He paused for half a second. "When his' real ability 'awakens?"
"Hehehehe …" Woody smiled but did not say anything.
"Hehehe …" Vincent looked at him and also smiled but did not say anything.
These two wily old foxes, who were overflowing with intelligence, would often laugh and gloss over a question that they had a tacit understanding of. This was because … they were too smart. Therefore, they needed to be muddle-headed from time to time.
"Alright, you don't have to worry about this matter." After laughing for a while, Woody spoke again. "He's the person I'm betting on, so I'll protect him."
"I just feel that you are meddling too much, so I wanted to give you a piece of advice …" Vincent adjusted his expression and said solemnly, "With Feng Bujue's intelligence and the help of the Dun Jia Heavenly Book, it won't take long for him to realize that his psionic power is just a facade. Getting Simon to help him break through that 'barrier' is indeed a shortcut, but is it really good for him? " His eyes changed slightly. "If he were to obtain a powerful power that he cannot control in a short period of time, maybe …"
"… You will lead yourself to 'destruction'." Woody interrupted Vincent and finished the last part of the sentence that Vincent was about to say.
At this moment, a white light flashed on Woody's spectacles. "I … know all of this, but …" He suddenly laughed again. "Hehehe … The illogical high risk and high reward … is where the charm of gambling lies."
