When everyone emerged from the game pod, they were still in a daze.

After a month of intense stress, all I got was the phrase "game over," leaving me feeling incredibly dissatisfied.

But thinking about it carefully, isn't their goal just to end the game in the end?

But the game didn't end as they imagined.

The moment the door to the Sixth Legion's game training room opened, a splash of rose-red light pierced the sky, a stunning sight that drew the attention of everyone inside.

This is a sunrise unique to the Sixth Army Corps.

The pink sun, after a night of immersion, burst through the ground, bringing a stunning sunrise that made everyone realize, in a daze, that they had only been playing games all night.

"It felt like a long time had passed."

"Who says it isn't? It's been so long, and then the ending..."

Some students get very frustrated when they hear about games ending in a bad way.

Who puts in serious effort and hard work just for those things in the end?

Even though the reward for clearing the level is fifty points per person, it still doesn't make people very happy.

"I'm starving! We ate our fill in the game, but we haven't eaten all night outside!"

Just as everyone was expressing their dissatisfaction with the game's ending, they were suddenly led astray by some honest players.

"Indeed, now that you mention it, I'm hungry too."

"Oh, yes, I want to eat something good too. But I'm not hungry, it's just that the water and food in the game make me wonder if there's something wrong with my sense of taste."

"Aren't there boxed lunches?"

"Then there won't be that many points?"

"Am I the only one who hasn't encountered this?"

Not all players encounter Mingmei, and not everyone is willing to spend points to buy Mingmei's lunchbox.

As more people started talking about boxed lunches, I suddenly felt a lot of gazes falling on me while I was enjoying the bright sunrise.

Bright and beautiful: ? ? ?

"Meimei!"

At this moment, Lu Xiaoyao immediately came over, looked at Mingmei, and asked curiously, "That..."

"What?"

"How does it feel to play the mysterious merchant using this bug?"

Even now, Lu Xiaoyao still remembers Mingmei becoming a mysterious merchant in the game due to a bug. She thinks about how many times she's been saved by a boxed lunch before, and now she's curious about what it's like for Mingmei to play the mysterious merchant.

"fine."

Bright and cheerful answer was rather unoriginal, which naturally earned Lu Xiaoyao a look of disappointment.

"that's all?"

"Yeah, it's not like I made it myself, so what's the point? I have to spend points to eat it myself. And I have to carry the lunchbox around everywhere..."

Mingmei spoke in a flat tone, as if she had been tricked badly and didn't want to say more, which startled Lu Xiaoyao so much that she didn't ask any further questions.

"Alright, go ask if they have breakfast. We'll eat first and then see what other plans we have."

Mingmei patted Lu Xiaoyao on the shoulder, diverting his curiosity elsewhere, "I wonder how good the food is in the Sixth Legion. I've never eaten here before."

"Oh yeah, I don't know if we have any (Lu Xiaoyao reciting dish names)."

"Shall we go?"

At this moment, Mu Chen also walked to Mingmei's side. Mingmei gestured with her lips to indicate that Lu Xiaoyao was still talking, and she did not interrupt her.

Mu Chen didn't indulge her. He took Mingmei's hand and said to Lu Xiaoyao, "Let's go."

"Okay, boss!"

Subconsciously, Lu Xiaoyao made a choice instantly.

...

One by one, the group walked out of the training room, stood under the corridor, looked at the rising sun, and breathed a sigh of relief, as if this could sweep away all their frustrations.

It was just a coincidence that Mingmei turned her head slightly to look at Mu Chen and saw that Mu Chen was also looking in the same direction. She followed his gaze and saw a group of students who looked disheveled.

Soon, others also noticed the commotion.

"It doesn't seem to be from our school."

"Nonsense, our school is all here and doing fine, of course it's not from our school."

At this moment, a sense of superiority and honor from the school suddenly rose among the people around Mingmei. None of them from the Central Military Academy had been injured this time; everyone was standing here safely.

The group over there, with their uniforms torn to shreds, looked quite pitiful.

"Big brother, what's going on over there?"

There were senior guards standing guard at the entrance of the training room. Some people on Mingmei's side were curious, so they politely walked to the side and quietly asked them for information.

"It's nothing, we were just robbed by space pirates."

The term "space pirate" is now very familiar to players of the Central Military Academy.

There was a high level of space pirates in the game just now.

"How come there are space pirates here...?"

Some players felt they were almost developing Space Pirate PTSD and couldn't help but complain in their hearts, "Why is it everywhere?!"

"Are you stupid? These space pirates are not the same as the space pirates in the game!"

Suddenly, someone spoke up to remind the student who had just been complaining.

Lu Xiaoyao stood beside Mingmei, watching Mingmei stand there for a moment, her gaze sweeping over the group of disheveled students who walked past them, and then glancing out of the corner of her eye at the players chatting behind them.

Lu Xiaoyao was the type who couldn't hide her feelings. She also sensed that something was wrong. Seeing that Mingmei wasn't uninterested, she whispered to Mingmei in hushed tones.

"Meimei, do you think... what they're doing... could it be..."

For some reason, even though Lu Xiaoyao didn't say anything, Mingmei still managed to interpret his meaning from Lu Xiaoyao's expressive facial features.
