Chapter 2269 - 844: It’s Just Some Obsessions

"People with management authority in other families have also been attacked." ’Hard Wind’ was a bit puzzled, "Where did they get so many people?

Are there really that many fools?"

"Surely someone else intends to fish in troubled waters, spending money to hire those who no longer want to play to cause chaos." ’Cunlü’ sneered, "Calculate it, it’s about time for the pampered young lords to unleash themselves.

The last one hadn’t even taken the stage before rushing in to play tricks—wasn’t that End of the World Romance?

We were just lucky. When we entered the game, there were two others around the same time as End of the World Romance who also wanted to play the game and become the boss: Young Master and Ink Brush.

The two prefer self-reliance and aren’t interested in using money to pressure people. They spend money on serious things... especially Young Master.

Actually, there are quite a few who want to stir things up, but that big Young Master is there! And he never hides his identity, those people probably don’t dare to make too much fuss.

So, those who came in at the same time as him, characters with less than stellar reputations, chose to crown themselves in other games.

Judging by the stages of these batches of young lords emerging, it’s about time for one or a few who have just walked out of the strictly managed mid-level academy to shine.

Heh~ Isn’t it their usual style to undermine the old boss before even coming in?

Damn, why do these families always like to give these guys money all at once before they go off to college?

What kind of logic forces them to have a major spending spree before they reach adulthood?"

"Young Master is still around! He just isn’t on all the time like before, he’s not completely gone from the game.

With these guys’ habits, they won’t go too far, After all... Young Master, who’s several years older, definitely has more money." ’Hard Wind’ pondered for a bit and then shook his head, "At most, they’ll be the next End of the World Romance, which isn’t much.

This is all Ink Brush’s work, it has nothing to do with us.

Let them go... Besides, do you really think Old Dog is completely unaware of being schemed against to this extent?"

"Who knows what kind of tricks he’s up to again?" ’Cunlü’ frowned, glancing down at the tablet, "All the families are here, you can ask those two rich... I remember it was Wenjian’s little rich girl who took it, right?

Because it looked especially nice."

She shook her head with a bit of sentiment: "Eh~ Look, all say I and Elder haven’t changed, how could that be~

If it were before, something so bling-bling, even gem ships that can be used as hair accessories!

The two of us would certainly fight over them.

But look now, not just me, even Elder hasn’t thought about spending so much money on things that are almost never used."

Her somber sigh only made ’Hard Wind’ take two steps back slightly.

He knows his wife well... that much obvious sarcasm definitely means the two Wenjian girls said something annoying.

Although ’Hard Wind’ never fears his wife’s spicy character, he also doesn’t want to get scolded because of others.

’Cunlü’ suddenly flipped the tablet: "Damn, putting on airs with me?

These are tricks I played until I got tired of playing!"

She sneered, her ten fingers swiftly moving across the floating tablet, almost producing sparks.

Then she suddenly paused and let out a cold laugh again, "Another one asking where I am?

She says she can’t send pictures, but can show me directly.

Damn, kids today are far more daring than we were back then.

Do they see everyone else as fools?

Do I eat rice for years for nothing?"

’Cunlü’ was getting a bit irritable: "What’s going on here?

Although some students in Wenjian aren’t very brainy, they aren’t usually this cheap!

Aye, Young Master said he doesn’t have much impression of which two, probably the ones with a lot of pocket money, the young ladies.

Plus, they’re not from his school, it seems they’re studying something... hmm? Why would the young ladies go into early education?"

’Hard Wind’ frowned in thought and softly said, "I remember these two entered Wenjian relatively early, otherwise they wouldn’t have so many military exploits."

In the Wenjian family, anyone who accumulates auction entry points definitely isn’t just passing the time.

At least they’ve participated in various tasks, including world wars.

Logically, people like this shouldn’t make such foolish choices.

He suddenly pulled out his tablet: "I feel asking Young Master is pointless.

Those few around him don’t work... despite coming from wealthy and powerful families, they all have their own circles.

Don’t judge Young Master, but in their class, Young Master is a promising child.

At least he has his own career and aspirations.

He and guys like End of the World Romance, even from the same class family background, definitely can’t play together. They could know each other because of many encounters over time.

There is someone who might know something."

"Who?" ’Cunlü’ asked with some curiosity, "You can’t mean to ask the current boss of Doomsday, can you?"

"Him?" ’Hard Wind’ chuckled, "Even if he knows, he wouldn’t tell me!

That guy’s just got a higher bottom line, but he’s not a good thing either.

I’m talking about the mayor of Hill Town, Old Cat.

"That guy is the kind who is widely connected and can talk to anyone."

"Because he’s between both sides?" ’Cunlü’ couldn’t help but laugh.

"Pretty much," ’Hard Wind’ nodded, "Besides, if it’s not something too taboo, he should tell it.

Ah, he replied.

I knew it, he must be watching the giant screen."

’Cunlü’ moved around to his back, half of her body leaning on him to look down.

"Hmm? Hmm..." ’Hard Wind’ sighed, "He probably anticipated it and is waiting for us to find him!

Such a long message."

’Cunlü’ looked at the tablet, a hint of sharpness slowly emerging in her eyes: "Truly foolish."

"That’s also a choice," ’Hard Wind’ turned his head to comfort her, "Some, like you, feel their life should be in their own hands; naturally, there are also those who believe happiness is in entrusting their lives to their families."

’Cunlü’s beautiful face was covered with frost: "They live off the family trust, don’t their brothers do the same?

Even if their brothers get a higher share of the trust, so what?

Could this kid possibly thwart their dreams of marrying a good husband in the future?

These two have at least gone to college, don’t they have that much assurance?

Playing games with people they’ve been fond of for so long!"

In the end, she couldn’t hold back: "What kind of fool thinks that playing games with a man will make him fancy her?

Even if we don’t mention personality and ability, shouldn’t it still be related to the face in reality?

Wait a minute, these tricks they’re playing, aren’t they wasting all those years of companionship before?"

’Hard Wind’ couldn’t help but laugh: "That’s their choice; why are you angry?

Go and tell the Young Master, these two can’t stay in the Alliance."

’Cunlü’ nodded, then suddenly sighed: "Although Paintbrush is really mad, at least she can communicate.

This kind... Really...

Where the hell is Old Dog?"

-----------------

’Snow Cloud Peak’ stood helplessly in the center of the tiny, one-meter-square island.

He actually prepared a lot of plans, but couldn’t handle having a ’Magic Sword’ by his side.

Of course, the strange luck of ’Magic Sword’ also left the enemies confused... They were indeed brought here by the Gem Ship to this odd underground space, but didn’t land in the giant pit the enemies had meticulously prepared.

Instead, they landed on a vertically towering rock pillar beside the pit.

The rocks in this world have peculiar properties, sometimes transforming due to special factors into metals that can’t be used at all... the kind you can’t even carve a notch into.

And, they greatly restrict magic.

Even an Alchemical Bomb can’t chip off a piece.

Especially the underworld.

’Snow Cloud Peak’ actually still had some countermeasures.

But, sitting on this almost magic-sealed pillar, he couldn’t even spark a flame.

He glanced at the two Knights squatting beside him, lost in thought, feeling really conflicted.

They couldn’t even jump down and revive... ’Magic Sword’ had already tried, and their revival point seemed stuck on this rock.

The enemies below... Even if they wanted to die and come directly at them, they couldn’t either.

Although the area for the Gem Ship’s revival point is small, it is still a revival point.

William would never allow his revival point to become a battlefield.

He sighed heavily, touching the few small stones in his pocket... Do they really have to use their ultimate move without even understanding their opponents before the battle?

What was all this effort for?

Besides, he really wanted to see if Ink Brush’s reaction this time could meet his standards.

"Old Dog," ’Perfect Bald,’ who had been in a spaced-out state, finally came to his senses, "Hard Wind called me, the one supporting them from behind should be some newly-minted college playboy.

Not even the kind from Academy Star."

"Mid-level Academy’s?" ’Snow Cloud Peak’ was taken aback, "Another End of the World Romance!

That makes sense, even this group is willing to accept them... Turns out, they haven’t been beaten enough and haven’t studied enough."

"This kind is perfect for Ink Brush to practice with, isn’t it?" ’Perfect Bald’ knew the kind of legacy-passing mindset Old Dog always had, "If he can’t even handle this, then stop trying.

The Proud Sky Alliance, the one in our hands, is the real Alliance. Why worry about a Proud Sky Alliance we aren’t playing with or is already dead?"

’Snow Cloud Peak’ chuckled: "Just consider me obsessed! I just don’t like seeing what’s in my hands trampled on just because of a change in generations."

"So, now, can you use your backup plan?" ’Perfect Bald’ said irritably, "I want to crush all those fools below!"
