Ironclad Group Chat: Red and Black Lists Engraved with Heroic Epics

[Golden Sands: Then Mr. Sunday would kick me out, bag and all, and in the process, send the King of Amber bouncing and bouncing onto my head.]

As a gambler, the most important thing is to know your own limitations.

Firefly was able to blend in using her mecha disguise, but what about him? Did he rely on that "Golden Sands of Deception" suit? Judging by that color scheme, only an idiot or a colorblind person would fail to recognize him!

Within the light screen, the firefly seemed to understand something, instantly grasping the situation: "So that's how it is, using synesthetic dreams. But it seems I haven't been able to enter the real Pinocchio?"

Silver Wolf casually replied, "Anyway, this scenery has nothing to do with a 'sweet dream,' it's probably some kind of... 'buffer zone.'"

"What you just saw was most likely a mirage."

"I see..." Liu Ying's expression fell. "Then the plan to raid the hotel won't work either."

[Fireworks: Sigh... What a pity, we can't raid the Daydream Hotel and let everyone experience Sam's fiery passion.]

[Bluebird: It's not like fire... it is fire! What are you all disappointed about?]

[Daydream Hotel tenants: Are you guys even polite?]

[Star: Yingbao, stop thinking about recklessly!]

Silver Wolf nodded, saying leisurely, "That's right. At most, you can only ambush me now."

[Star: Is it really possible?]

Silver Wolf: No!

Liu Ying's eyes sparkled: "But this also means that I haven't been exposed yet, and I'm only one step away from the [Twelfth Hour]?"

Silver Wolf greatly admired this about her: "You always manage to find some good news even in a pile of bad things."

Liu Ying smiled faintly: "At least, the current situation has become much clearer."

"I'll go look around elsewhere first; maybe I can find a suitable entrance for [smuggling] across the border."

Silver Wolf, hands on her hips, also got busy: "Okay, you find the way first. I'll go contact that temporary helper."

The firefly searched around the strangely styled and chaotic building, but after spending a lot of time, it couldn't find a breakthrough. However, it could vaguely hear some piercing sounds.

At first, Silver Wolf tried to comfort her, saying it might just be background noise from her memories, but before she had gone far, the increasingly clear sound made Firefly's expression turn serious.

"No... I can't be mistaken about that voice..."

It was the roar of the insect swarm!

She decisively put aside the matter of finding a breakthrough and charged forward, following the sound of insects.

After pushing open a secluded door in the corridor, several real hibernating insects were right in front of me.

"As expected. But why...?"

"Shouldn't we take cover first?"

Liu Ying crossed her arms, her eyebrows furrowed, her expression sharp as a sword: "No need, I know them too well."

[Qingque: No, is it instant battle face activation?]

[Star: I avoid his sharp edge? My sword has not been at a disadvantage either!]

[Phantom image: Firefly Cat says—I've known them for half my life, our friendship is heartfelt, I'd recognize them even if they turned to ashes.]

Silver Wolf pondered for a moment: "It might not be true [breeding]. Remember? This star system also experienced a large-scale insect plague a long time ago."

Liu Ying frowned slightly: "You mean, this is just a phantom of the past?"

Even phantoms are killed without hesitation.

"That would be best." Silver Wolf carefully chose his words. "It could also be similar to a meme, a fear rooted in the hearts of the Asdnani, like a nightmare."

Liu Ying once again captured an important piece of information: "So, this dream realm is indeed not under the control of the family."

[Yao Guang: That's right. Who would have thought that this dream was actually under the control of order at a time like this?]

[Star: So this isn't a connection point at all? The firefly went straight in and invaded the original dream?!]

I don't know whether to call this luck too bad or too good.

[Black Tower: It seems that's the case now.]

[Star: Little black cat, was this also part of your calculations?]

After some analysis, Silver Wolf's previous dismissive attitude towards the swarm began to waver: "Maybe you're right. Let's continue searching along this path. As for what they actually are..."

Firefly acted faster than she spoke. Before Silver Wolf could make a decision, the summoning device in her hand flickered with a gentle, cyan flame: "Let me try and I'll find out!"

The pure white mecha flew out from the exploding flames, and its opening flying kick was completely merciless, without even a hint of probing, blasting the nearest True Stinger into ashes in one blow.

The remaining insects were chopped into pieces like melons and vegetables by the firefly's merciless lightsaber attacks, and then not even a trace remained in the flames.

Retracting the mecha, she muttered to herself, "Too weak, completely different from reality."

Outside the light screen, the ordinary audience watched her charge around with wild and unrestrained fighting style, and they were all dumbfounded.

No, where did that gentle, sweet girl who seemed to have trouble even unscrewing a bottle cap go?

Who is that hero piloting the white mecha?!

Could it be... that it's just one person?

This is no gentle, docile kitten at all; it's clearly a top-tier tigress who's sheathed her claws, flapping her ears and acting cute!

"As expected of the savior, how did she manage to make such a terrifying woman so obedient?"

[Star: Haha, high damage with the left hand, high damage with the right foot!]

[Qingque: Hey sis, is this your usual fighting style?]

[Silver Wolf: That's not all, there's also a bit of weird and chuunibyou stuff to add on...]

[Firefly: Ahhhhh!!! Silver Wolf, you, you, you weren't hurt just now, were you?]

[Silver Wolf: Hiss~~ If we don't count your yell, then there isn't one.]

"I'm sorry..." Firefly said timidly, pointing at her fingers.

Inside the Daydream Hotel, Silver Wolf slapped his ears with his two little hands, trying to soothe his eardrums from the ultra-high-frequency sound waves. His eyes, however, stared speechlessly at Firefly beside him, who finally had a chance to "move around."

Is it really necessary? There are stars watching in the group chat, and you're just that shy?

Then why did you shout those lines so enthusiastically in the first place?

She pouted and said, "He was shouting more enthusiastically than anyone else when he was wearing the metal sheet..."

Liu Ying pursed her lips and looked away awkwardly.

That's covered with sheet metal, isn't it...?

Within the light screen, Firefly gazed at the pristine floor, her emotions a complex mix: "The remains have vanished. Was it truly just an illusion formed from memory matter?"

Silver Wolf had confirmed most of it, but he was also somewhat amused and exasperated by their plan: "It's a done deal. No wonder the abandoned Dream Pool is worthless. Without family protection, ordinary people who dare to come here rashly will have a hard time."

"We should be careful later; not all phantoms are friendly."

Firefly nodded: "I will."

[Fireworks: I don't believe it.]

Given Liu Ying's state just now, the fact that she didn't go berserk when she saw the insects is already a sign that she's maintaining her image.

[Star: Hey~ that's not right. I, Firefly, seriously and diligently killed every single bug. How is that not being careful?]

[March 7th: Those are insects, shouldn't we be careful?]

[Fireworks: The insect says—the huge, terrifying upright ape, Firefly, is no pushover!]
