"I've heard the weather in the Land of Lawlessness is quite nice."
"Yeah, the Ethereal Emblem is getting cold enough to snow."
"Everyone, please gather here if you've packed your bags. We're leaving in 30 minutes."
Members of the Extreme Association and the Fantasy Association gathered by the Teleportation Gate.
Just then, from afar, a tank seemed to be slowly approaching.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Fratiss hauling ingredients towards Chloe.
"Is this all?"
Chloe looked at the little foodie, who had a thin layer of sweat on her face, and asked with some doubt.
Given his understanding of the foodie, she should be able to bring more.
Fratiss smiled awkwardly and said:
"I brought some myself too; there's no need to trouble senior with more."
"You've already troubled me, why not go all the way?"
"Then, I'll go get some more."
"Go ahead."
Chloe sorted and packed the luggage Fratiss brought.
Turning around, the foodie had already dashed away out of sight.
As he was packing, he suddenly heard faint footsteps behind him.
He immediately recognized the sound; it was Lilith's steps.
The clear and rhythmic sound of high heels approached, followed by a warm body pressing against his back.
"Huh?"
"Huh, what? You knew I was coming, right?"
Lilith laughed playfully, flipping onto Chloe's lap.
She looked intently at her lover, her gaze sweeping over the bags.
After a moment, she squinted.
Such luggage, mostly food, only one person in the group would pack like this.
"Helping your sister pack, such a good brother," Lilith rubbed her finger on the Space Ring, and a pile of luggage appeared before him, "How about you pack mine too? You'll get a reward."
Chloe hugged Lilith and said with a smile:
"Isn't the reward happening now?"
Lilith lifted his chin with her hand and said:
"You can have more rewards."
Chloe didn't hesitate, directly kissed her collarbone,
Lilith softly hummed and purposely rubbed against him.
Soon, Chloe reacted.
"Want to try? Nope, we're still outside!"
Chloe raised an eyebrow.
Lilith had gotten increasingly bold lately.
She gently pushed him and said:
"Someone's coming."
"I know."
Lilith huffed lightly, then shifted to sit beside him.
Suddenly Fufu poked her head out:
"Junior, help me pack some stuff."
Then, behind Fufu's hair, Nini also peeked out:
"Xiaoke Xiaoke, help me pack things."
Fufu looked at the pile Lilith had stacked in front of her, and her direct gaze made Chloe's scalp tingle.
She approached and poked Lilith's cheek, saying:
"President, don't bully our cute junior."
Lilith rolled her eyes; who was bullying whom?
A string of rapid footsteps followed.
Rephya ran over excitedly.
"Senior, help me pack some things!"
"Huh?"
Chloe was a bit confused.
What?
What's going on today?
Why is everyone coming to me for packing?
Seeing two senior sisters already surrounding Chloe, Rephya widened her eyes.
The clever Xiaolu immediately understood that Chloe senior seemed to be on the brink of an Asura Field.
No way!
It's said when the Asura Field starts, the male lead gets pierced thrice, sliced six times, then carried off by girls across the sea.
Rephya absolutely wouldn't allow such a thing to happen.
So...
"Senior, senior, I've prepared a bit too much weaponry, can you help me pack some of it?"
"Uh... okay..."
Chloe coughed, annoyed, glancing at Xiaolu.
Then he saw Xiaolu's mischievous eyes staring at him.
Alright.
A look of "I'm bored, I want to see rivers of blood" on her face.
Aisha was checking her battle attire and, upon arriving, was stunned by the variety of luggage.
"What, what are you all doing?"
She looked puzzled at the chaotic scene.
Xiaolu, never missing a chance for drama, waved her hand, saying:
"Aisha Aisha, don't you have stuff that doesn't fit? Give it to senior to help pack."
Aisha originally wanted to refuse.
But seeing so many things needing packing, she brightened up and hesitantly approached, saying:
"Senior, can I pack too?"
What could Chloe say?
"Sure, of course, you can."
One must swallow one's pride along with broken teeth.
Because the crowd was too large.
They had to rent a Magic Energy Vehicle.
On the vehicle, perhaps on a whim, Lilith confusedly and deliberately napped beside Chloe.
Her delicate head nodded drowsily, supported by Chloe onto his shoulder.
Before anyone could notice, Chloe showcased his rapid sleep technique.
Making sure he was completely asleep.
Excitedly, Laura watched a few association freshmen.
"Did you prepare mage robes for this trip?"
A senior sister from fourth year, looking bewildered:
"What battle robe? Wearing robes during a fight is such a hassle."
"Who told you it's for fighting? Well, actually it is kind of used for that too."
Laura thought for a moment and gave a strange reply.
The senior from fourth year, having lived a few more years, immediately got Laura's point:
"We're heading to the Abyss of Woe, not Love Paradise, what's the point of bringing that stuff?"
The senior said seriously:
"Besides, women dress up for those who admire them. Do I have anyone admiring me?"
Laura laughed loudly and said:
"Why don't you just admit you've been single forever!"
"It's not about being single. The point is we'll be out for months; it'll be tiring. Is there really anyone who brought something like that?"
Upon hearing this, Miseria showed a blushing and guilty expression.
—The vice president with admirers felt awkward.
Rephya silently turned her head away.
—Xiaolu with admirers seemed eager to be devoured.
The perceptive senior was stunned as she looked at the two:
"Why are you both suddenly shy?"
"Who's shy? Stop talking nonsense."
"Exactly, senior, it's just too hot in the vehicle."
"Oh, I believe you, sure!"
The senior turned her gaze to Fufu:
"Fufu, I know you, you definitely wouldn't bring something like that..."
"I did."
"..."
"I have someone I want to show it to, bringing it is normal!"
Fufu declared her ownership with a cheerful smile.
From behind her neck, Nini suddenly popped her head out:
"I brought it too."
The senior was shocked:
"Wait, Master Nini, are you joking?"
Nini looked confused:
"Why would I joke? I never joke. I want to show it to Xiaoke!"
The senior gazed in a state of collapse at "Xiaoke".
Xiaoke leaned against the chair, soundly asleep.
He wouldn't wake up until they reached their destination.
She looked over at the sleeping Lilith.
"No matter what, at least Lilith surely won't..."
"She did."
Fufu flashed a meaningful smile:
"I noticed before coming here, Lilith senior had already prepared ahead of time."
"I declare, in this Maze, none of you are allowed to act in pairs!"
Having suffered multiple blows, the senior's mental state finally crumbled.
She finally turned her despairing gaze to the initiator of the discussion.
"Laura, I know you wouldn't betray the Association, right?"
Laura laughed heartily, saying:
"I did too. I often wear hot pants, as you know, I'm best at Flame Magic."
It's well known that Flame Magic has a high temperature.
Mages proficient in Flame Magic often dressed quite hotly as they tended to sweat from the heat.
Some extremely indulgent ones even went straight for a combo of a mini skirt and bikini.
It's hard to say whether Flame Magic led them to dress this way, or they were naturally inclined, conveniently using Flame Magic as an excuse.
Fortunately, at least now, she glanced at Laura, noticing that compared to other mages who excelled in Flame Magic, her attire was relatively conservative.
[Fake, it's clear there's no appearance of interest in showing off to the opposite sex during this outing]
[She definitely has nothing, impossible, absolutely impossible]
However, Laura seemed intent on striking at her confidence, cheerfully pulling out a sizzling little undergarment from the space pouch.
"Some floors require mages for reconnaissance. I can't be wearing a mage robe underwater; just in case, it's good to be prepared."
—That was a lie.
Laura had specific clothing for going underwater; the reason she prepared this was because she heard there's a floor in the Abyss of Woe quite suitable for soaking in hot springs.
So she planned to form a girls' group to enjoy a good soak.
Alas.
She seemed to have really tricked that fourth-year senior.
Her expression twisted as she said:
"Wearing it will still give you a tummy! You smoke and drink daily!"
Laura blinked and looked around, confirming that the only guy around was still asleep. She lifted the hem of her shirt, patted her tummy, and said:
"Hey, say something!"
"Impossible, you were drinking with me, yet you're completely fine."
The senior looked down at her recently more noticeable tummy and suddenly felt very aggrieved.
Laura said nothing.
What could she say?
It's not like she could explain her ancestors, as Children of the Sun Chaser, mastered the method of using sunlight to burn fat in exchange for magic power.
She even wished her flesh would grow faster.
Whenever she wanted to gather some magic power reserves, she couldn't gather enough.
So at crucial moments, she could only... burn snow fat, which was very annoying.
"Boohoo, Lilith, please ban them from Maze activities, I don't want to be fed dog food!"
"So noisy!"
Originally, Lilith had already fallen asleep, but was forcibly awakened.
Having just finished eating snacks, Fratiss tilted her head and said:
"Can't we dress a bit hotter?"
Everyone was utterly shocked.
Fratiss, do you know what you're saying?
The most innocent foodie among them suddenly uttered such a thing.
Fratiss, unclear about the situation, glanced at everyone, then oddly said:
"Those battle robes you mention have small coverage. When I wear armor, I always buy similar clothes as the base layer, making it easier to control the full body armor."
She even said seriously:
"It's very comfortable."
"..."
"Ah?!"*N
But the lively mess of playful banter came to an end there.
Because, next, they were heading to the continent's most notorious special area.
