I materialized a sci-fi fortress in a magical world.

"Drink!"

In order to rescue the people, Grand Duke Andersai mustered all his fighting spirit, wielding a large war hammer that he was not very good at, and hammering the entrance to the secret realm again and again.

Even though he had exhausted all his fighting spirit and was panting heavily like everyone else around him, the archway didn't budge an inch.

"Hoo~ Hoo~ Your Highness, Great Witch, how much longer until your arrival?"

The Grand Duke, panting heavily, asked about the witch's hat floating in the air.

"Stop rushing me, I'm on my way. Do you know how far it is for me to come here? Honestly, of all times, something had to go wrong..."

An annoyed voice came from inside the witch's hat, and then asked:

"What about those two old guys from the other schools of thought?"

"We've already notified them, and they're on their way, but they're farther away than you, so it will take them at least 3 days."

As the two important figures were talking, a sudden exclamation came from the entrance to the secret realm:

"Why is the crystal ball cracked?"

"Look at the gate! It's shaking!"

"Did we succeed?"

Amidst the gasps of the crowd, the crystal ball monitoring the interior of the secret realm shattered into dust, and cracks quickly appeared on the stone archway. The entire gate shook faster and faster until it completely collapsed, scattering into a pile of small pebbles.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen dark cracks suddenly appeared in mid-air, more than two meters above the ground, like several gaps being torn open on a canvas, from which figures fell out with a thud.

"They're out! We did it!"

The nobles outside erupted in cheers and rushed forward, searching for their own sons.

Royo's figure appeared at the very end, still holding the unconscious Lemir in his arms, and landed steadily on the ground.

Of everyone present, he was the only one who remained conscious; the others were still unconscious and looked unwell, but they were all still alive, including the one who had bought a lot of time in the arena.

The scene was somewhat chaotic, and no one paid any attention to Luo Yue for the time being. He thought he would take his senior to rest first, but just as he was about to leave, he was blocked by a large, flying witch's hat.

"what?"

Luo Yue was immediately struck by the iconic purple lily on the witch's hat and paused in surprise.

A wisp of spiritual energy then emanated from the witch's hat, groping him all over, lingering for a moment on the emblem on his chest, before a very young and pleasant female voice rang out:

"What an interesting little fellow. Come with me, I have some questions for you."

"Um...excuse me, you wouldn't happen to be...?"

"That's right, just like you thought. I'm Purple Lily, your big sister."

"It really is..."

Luo Yue was also taken aback, never expecting to meet this legendary great witch in this way.

Although he had been with the Purple Lily School for many years and had even been to its headquarters, Luo Yue had never met this great witch, let alone spoken to her.

It wasn't just him; most people in the school had never seen this mysterious great witch. At most, they had only seen this witch's hat, and their understanding of her appearance was limited to guessing and imagining.

Some say she must be an unparalleled beauty, young and pretty; others say she is an elderly woman, wrinkled, hiding in a black robe all day long.

Luo Yue had initially leaned towards the latter, but the other person's voice sounded so young that she suddenly became more inclined towards the former.

But no matter what, shouldn't she be a highly respected senior figure? Why is she even referring to herself as "Big Sister"?

However, this title also subtly bridged the gap between top figures and nobodies, making Luo Yue feel a bit more familiar with this leader of the school.

........................

After being led away by the witch's hat, Royo went to the Lily School's residence here, a comfortable and luxurious manor.

Soon, the other members of the school arrived one after another, and they even carried McVeigh, who was still unconscious, back on a stretcher.

Luo Yue first settled the senior in his arms, then waited for the witch's hat to examine her and give its diagnosis:

"It's nothing serious, I just accidentally fell into the [Void]. Take some calming medicine and get some rest."

Royo breathed a sigh of relief, then heard the witch's hat continue:

"Alright, little one, leave this to them. Now it's your turn. Tell them what happened inside, and don't lie!"

Royo then recounted what had happened in the secret realm and answered several questions from the Witch Hat and the other mages of the school.

Throughout the entire process, the wisp of spiritual power from the Great Witch lingered around him, carefully monitoring his heartbeat and breathing to determine whether he was lying.

In front of a seventh-tier expert, Luo Yue dared not play any tricks and told the truth, even revealing that he had achieved a 30-game winning streak and had used the secret realm rules to trick two people from another school.

But there are definitely some things left out, such as summoning mechs, manually creating the "magic fountain," and crushing the entire theater—these are all "small details."

"So, to summarize, the Night Banquet suddenly went out of control. The Lord of the Night Banquet wanted to kill all of you in the Endless Arena, but fortunately, you led the others in a fight and destroyed the Secret Realm Core, allowing you to escape, right?"

The voice of the Great Witch came from the witch's hat, personally summarizing for Royo, and then continued:

"I know you're still hiding something, but that's alright. Our school of thought has always been open and inclusive, respecting everyone's privacy..."

But there are two questions you must clarify: how can you, with your second and third tiers, possibly shake the Lord of the Night Banquet?

And why is everyone else still unconscious, while you remain conscious?

As she spoke, her tone became serious, suddenly revealing the majesty of a seventh-tier expert, causing Luo Yue's heart to skip a beat. She quickly replied:

"It is like this, in that place you call the Void, I received the protection and help of a mysterious being, who took action to eliminate the Lord of the Night Banquet;

As for why I didn't faint... I'm not quite sure either. Maybe I have a special talent for it?

Upon hearing this explanation, the other monks around fell silent, their eyes filled with deep doubt, clearly not believing the explanation.

The witch's hat also fell silent, seemingly trying to figure out whether Royo was lying.

Several minutes later, the Great Witch's voice finally came again:

Tell me about that mysterious being.

"This... I'm sorry, I can't explain it clearly, I don't know how to describe that being."

Luo Yue spread his hands, his face showing a natural look of confusion.
