A perfectly good battle ended so haphazardly and bewilderingly due to Lin Bai's tricks and bluffs. The Players looked at each other with a surreal feeling.
"Is it over just like that?" Great Loe the Golden Immortal asked.
"What else do you want? For Shopkeeper Lin to turn them all into Puppets?" Crazy Man complained. "All the NPCs have become Shopkeeper Lin's Puppets! What the hell are we even playing for? The battlefield is supposed to be our stage, not Shopkeeper Lin's. We play for the thrill. And what about us?
"We flew on Levitation Talismans for a whole day and night, and our greatest thrill was chanting a few tongue twisters for Shopkeeper Lin.
"Trapped inside the Sky Dome, we didn't even get near an Evil Spirit; they were all obliterated by Shopkeeper Lin's lightning. How the hell are we any different from the spectators outside?"
The Players fell into silence.
