Without a word to his faction leader, his figure flickered and vanished from the game instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the hell-difficulty quest had been completed successfully and he'd gained considerable power, he couldn't shake this uncomfortable feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, given Sun's overwhelming presence, he'd somehow ended up playing the \"bride\" role in that ceremony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it! Leaving! No words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun had no comment for such weakness. In his view, why refuse free power that cost nothing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's not like they actually had to do anything—why the mental block?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pathetic teammate. Look at those two—they cooperated perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Xie Antong's words, Sun glanced downward and shook his head disdainfully:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why bother with these trash? Just a bunch of kowtowing insects who entrust their fates to others, begging for protection.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then his gaze shifted to Lu Ce, eyes narrowing slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noticing his attention, Lu Ce tilted his mask slightly in that direction, hefting his axe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His question was simple:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fight?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch.\" Sun cracked his neck with soft pops, but made no move to charge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Would you do something with no benefits, only risks?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh?\" The golden greataxe rested lightly on the ground, splitting stone like tofu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No benefits indeed.

Whether a perfect clear was possible didn't matter—he could exchange massive points if needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hah! That was a good fight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looking forward to meeting next game.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce didn't respond, simply hurling his axe to create an explosive crater—but Sun had already vanished, having logged out hastily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce strolled over to retrieve his weapon, fingers lightly tracing the stone-cleaving edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Arrogance's exclusive armament—other masks couldn't unleash the so-called \"Broken Divine Weapon's\" full might.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strangely, he actually felt unsatisfied with the fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was Arrogance... actually a battle junkie?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After brief consideration, he turned to survey the ruins behind him—specifically the tallest remaining monolith amidst the wreckage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a light step, he ascended to the pinnacle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding his Extreme Path Battle-Axe aloft, he channeled Arrogance's power through the weapon. Sunlight glinted off the golden blade with dazzling intensity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even under the blazing sun, the axe's radiance dominated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every remaining confused soul below wearing large masks now looked upward toward the summit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chaos spreads like plague, but sudden silence can be equally contagious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within breaths, tens of thousands below froze mid-action, standing motionless as if awaiting revelation, gazing devoutly mountainward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Observing this abruptly reverent crowd, the Arrogance mask's expression flickered with disappointment and disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet ultimately, he spoke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ceremony concluded!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Complete... success!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two brief sentences.
