Chapter 462: Chapter 239: Shuixi Middle School

Maya believed that Sunlight had no idea he held a fondness for Shana, an inclination for closeness. It was also because he hadn’t thought that much about it, therefore, there was no restraint to control himself. Maya thought that Stone was half right, Sunlight indeed had certain feelings for Shana. But Maya didn’t believe that Sunlight would develop a deeper relationship with Shana. The biggest reason, of course, was Starlight; both Sunlight and Shana would hit the brakes when they realized something was amiss. After all, humans are rational animals.

Secondly, Sunlight wasn’t Shana’s type. Who was Shana’s type? Strictly speaking, Lin Wu was half suitable, as Lin Wu was someone Shana didn’t mind flirting with and dating. To say that Shana liked Lin Wu wouldn’t be entirely true; with Shana’s personality, if she really liked someone, she would definitely fight for it.

As for Lin Wu...

Maya turned her head to look at Lin Wu, Lin Wu was performing a duet with Little Wai. Lin Wu sang a line, and Little Wai responded with two barks, doing so beside every person who was working, annoying everyone to the point smoke seemed to rise from their heads as they threw mud at him. Facing such a Juvenile Ghost, Maya could only sigh.

"Others laugh at me for being too crazy."

"Woof woof."

"I laugh at others for not seeing through."

"Woof woof."

"I can take no more."

"That’s it." Snow Egg and Peanut, with mud in both hands, flanked Lin Wu from the left and the right. Lin Wu dropped his chair and sprinted off, relying on his Agility to make a quick escape.

Seeing this scene, Sunlight said, "I didn’t expect Lin Wu with his bad temper to actually be quite popular at the base."

Shana smiled, "We all get along well. If we go into details, the relationship between Lin Wu and Snow Egg should be considered relatively poor. But a bad relationship is still a relationship."

Sunlight was a bit puzzled, "As far as I know, he didn’t have many friends in university."

Shana said, "The biggest reason is his contribution; as the focus of a class, a community, he doesn’t need to deliberately make friends with others—others will make friends with him. You seem to have quite the misunderstanding with him."

Sunlight said, "I had a private detective investigate him, and at the time, I was quite satisfied with the conclusions of the report. I didn’t expect him to dump my sister. This is intolerable. We are the Fortress family, 5%, and he, a penniless 95%, dared to dump my sister... "

Shana asked, "What if it wasn’t your sister? Suppose you were Lin Wu’s good friend, how would you view this matter?"

Sunlight thought for a moment, laughed at himself, and said, "I would advise Lin Wu to break up with my sister. What’s the point of dating when you can play games together in the dorm? Now that you mention it, upon reflecting, I realize my sister was indeed putting on too much pressure. If Lin Wu was a scoundrel, he would definitely pander to my sister and ingratiate himself with her. If Lin Wu didn’t want to ingratiate himself, then a breakup with my sister was inevitable."

Shana, struggling to hold back laughter, asked, "But even without a reason, you can’t tolerate it."

Sunlight firmly replied, "I can’t tolerate it."

Shana said, "You have a good mindset. As the leader of a large base, being sent to an unfamiliar place by death, you don’t take it to heart at all."

Sunlight said, "I’ve already accepted the reality. Besides, as a Fortress employee, you should know that we don’t care much about gaming points." When they get to Earth, they could directly take over the enterprises of Fortress Company. Fortress Company already had established rules and regulations; the incompetent wouldn’t get anywhere, and even if they did make it to the top, they’d be quickly eliminated. So it’s better to think about how to manage Fortress Company’s resources after arriving on Earth than to worry about gaming points.

If you really don’t want to stay on Earth, you can take a shuttle back to Blue Star, and just settle the matter with a fine afterwards. The difference between a shuttle and a starship is similar to that between a private plane and a public bus.

Shana asked, "It sounds like you’re planning to leave Hardcore Mode?"

Sunlight nodded, "I am considering it. What about you?"

Shana shook her head, "None of us have ever considered this question. Perhaps it’s because the atmosphere at the base has always been optimistic."

At that moment, outside the instance, Starlight was chopping wood in the parking lot with her tools, and Dashuang brought her some refreshments. The two sat down and started chatting. Starlight was concerned about whether Shadow was harmonious because its members were outstanding, because Stone led well, or for some other reason.

Unable to answer this question, Dashuang had joined Shadow when it was already very strong. During the time she joined Shadow, she frequently saw Lin Wu and Maya carrying weapons and ammunition to the base. All her possessions from her original base combined might not be enough to trade for even one of those assault rifles.

When asked who was the core of Shadow, Dashuang didn’t hesitate to name two people: Maya and Lin Wu. Lin Wu was because of his large contributions and strength. Dashuang thought that Maya was truly the core of the entire base. Rather than saying she obeyed Stone’s commands, it was more like Stone was accommodating her work.

Little Knife, who came out to deliver goods, had a different opinion. When asked whose absence would lead the base downhill, Little Knife named two people: Lin Wu and Stone. Little Knife believed Lin Wu had strong exploration abilities, which were the main reason for the base’s continuous growth in strength. Stone seemed hands-off, but in reality, all decisions of the base required his consent.

Peanut’s opinion was Maya.

With Starlight’s deepening understanding, she had a grasp of the concept of Shadow. To sum it up, Lin Wu, Maya, and Stone contributed the most to the base. Among them, Maya was an indispensable core. Such a person, naturally, was someone Starlight wanted to become friends with.

Would Sunlight like such a capable partner? This is love, when you love someone, even their defecation carries a uniquely charming scent. When you don’t love them, you don’t spare them a second glance.
