Lulu's words were like a bomb.
The water remained calm for a few seconds before exploding with a loud bang.
"What did that werewolf say—'She's back? Linda's back from the closed Mythic+ dungeon?'"
"I've heard that there's no chance of survival in the sealed Great Mystic Realm, how could anyone have returned?"
"And to become a Star Rank?"
Everyone was a little confused.
“Miss, you seem very happy.”
A minotaur, as tall as an iron tower and dressed in a black suit, spoke respectfully.
"Of course, I am the leader of the Phoenix Flower Fan Club."
The girl chuckled softly, staring at Lulu's retreating figure, a playful glint in her eyes.
She wore a gothic black dress, her long black hair was straight and elegant, her face was slightly pale, and her right eye seemed to be injured, covered by a white eye patch. She wore black lace gloves and held a parasol, which was lightly draped over her shoulder.
"Miss, the sun will be at its strongest soon. Let me take you back to your room to rest."
"That's what the minotaur said."
Since traveling to White Dove City a few months ago, this young lady has decided to settle here for a while and has even set up a bizarre fan club called Phoenix Flower, which is really hard to understand.
But now, he vaguely understands something.
That Linda actually managed to return alive from the sealed secret realm and even break through to the Star Rank...
Such achievements are not something every top adventure team in the capital can accomplish.
The girl in the black dress carefully peeked her head out from under the parasol, looked at the sunlight, and said, "Yes, it's time to go back. Thank you for your help."
The minotaur took a wheelchair from his spatial ring and pushed the girl in the black dress away.
...
Let's go back to last night.
After finishing her millet porridge, Linda held the recording stone Lulu handed her. Upon hearing the strange request, her eyes widened in confusion.
"This dean is a mature adult."
"—The teacher is the dean's future husband!"
"—The teacher is cruel and evil, a big bad guy!"
I understand.
Linda understood completely.
"Good, all my careful nurturing has paid off! Bai Luo is indeed an outstanding child, now he's the dean of Qingkong University. Luanweihua's good days are about to begin!"
Linda slapped the bed and sat up straight, her fatigue vanishing.
The addition of members at the Light Rank significantly enhances the Phoenix Tail Flower Squad.
But Lulu's next sentence was like a bucket of ice water being poured over her head.
"Captain, you seemed to have promised Bai Luo that we would retire together and live ordinary lives? Why didn't Monica, Tasia, or the others know this?"
"Is it only those 'five-star characters' you once mentioned who know about this?"
"Those of us with weaker talents probably don't even deserve to know, right?"
Lulu smiled gently, took a handkerchief, and wiped the rice grains from Linda's mouth after she finished drinking the millet porridge.
"Cough cough cough, back then I was blinded by power, let's not talk about it."
Even though he was currently a level higher than Lulu, Linda felt a chill run down his spine as he felt the handkerchief gently wiping his mouth. There was no smile in Lulu's eyes; it was as if she would open her sharp little mouth and bite his head at any moment.
Linda may be tough, but she can't withstand the continuous damage.
He coughed twice awkwardly.
But then I thought about it again.
This...something's not right!
He had indeed promised Bai Luo that he would retire.
The prerequisite is that you have cleared the World Tree, defeated the Demon King, and achieved peace on the continent.
Recalling what Bai Luo said, he "agreed" to retire directly.
How is that possible?
Linda really likes the character Bai Luo.
But they wouldn't abandon all the other team members for the sake of Bai Luo.
“I never agreed to her,” Linda said.
"No?" Lulu was taken aback.
"Something must have gone wrong."
Linda rested her chin on her hand, carefully recalling her early gaming experiences.
A flash of inspiration struck me.
Could it be... because of that power outage?
Just before he clicked the option, the rental room suddenly went dark.
The screen was completely black.
Upon logging back into the game, the storyline disappeared and was automatically skipped.
Bai Luo's favorability rating increased from 80 to 90.
Perhaps for this reason, Bai Luo only heard the first half of the option.
The sentence that begins with "but" ends because the rental house lost power.
"This is truly... a huge blunder."
Linda was both amused and exasperated.
"What are you planning to do?" Lulu asked worriedly.
"I can't let Bai Luo know my identity in the short term. She seems easy to talk to, but she's actually the kind of person who's very stubborn. I'm worried that I'll be forced to marry her in Cangqing City, which would be bad."
Linda sighed, "At least wait until all the members of the Phoenix Tail Flower are at the Moon Rank, or until there is a black... cough cough, anyway, first tell Bai Luo that I will go to find her in three years and keep her in check, and we'll talk about the rest later."
Without the Dark Shadow trial card in hand, Linda started trembling at the thought of the consequences if the veteran team members found out that her strength was not what it used to be.
To satisfy players' various fantasies, the game "Secret Realm Continent" features many beautiful female team members with distinct personalities.
Among them are yanderes, entertainers, and ambitious individuals who want to ride roughshod over the captain... If Linda doesn't have the strength to protect herself and goes to meet those team members with a smile, her fate will be far more terrible than being eaten by monsters.
Let's go back to the present.
After a night of rest and recuperation, Linda's dizziness from traversing the [Void Space] completely disappeared.
After breakfast, he was full of energy and purified Tasia.
