If it were a vast world, this task would be impossible to complete.

The Academy is suggesting through this task that what we are currently in is not a complete world. It is likely just a part of the whole, perhaps a very very small part.”  ^y

Having said that, Betty’s face flushed, her head hung low, and her cheeks were almost rubbing against Justice’s.

Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap…

Link was the first to applaud, clapping very hard in approval of Betty’s argument.

The five brothers immediately followed suit.

Applause rang out, a huge encouragement for Betty Maggie when it reached her ears.

She slowly raised her head.

Then, amidst the applause, she straightened herself and sat up straight her head held high.

Other than somewhat red eyes,

Her demeanor visibly changed, exuding much more confidence than before.

Some words can warm you for even three winters.

The encouragement and praise of the people around are the best medicine for those who are trying to step out of their comfort zone and make changes, such as those with social phobia.

While it might not work instantly, it does have some positive effects.

It’s a good start.

After a while, the applause ceased.

“So far, our discussion has been very fruitful, and we’ve achieved several results,”

Link summarized, “First, we should draw a map of the ‘World¹, defining the scope of the ‘World’;

Second, based on this, we should define the standards for preserving or destroying this world;

What else, everyone, think harder, don’t limit your thinking, let’s be a bit more imaginative.”

Among the Social Phobia Trio, Mitte Valente, the tallest but the most reserved, said, “We can start from an ecological perspective. Sub-tasks 2,3,4, 5, 6, and 7 are all about ecology, especially task 7.”

“Hmm, well said.”

Link confirmed first, then gave guidance, “Can you expand on how to proceed?”

Mitte Valente, upon affirmation, breathed a sigh of relief, couldn’t help but raised his voice, and continued to present his ideas, “The Academy asks us to provide a sustainable development strategy, which suggests that the food chain in this world is broken and that we need to re-establish a stable and practical food chain.

We should, therefore, first analyze all collected water and soil samples, as well as plant and animal specimens.

Then try to establish an ecological chain that accommodates as many existing plants, animals, and microorganisms as possible.”

“Good! Well said!”

Link, turned into a praise-crazy, didn’t skimp on his appreciation and kept lauding, “You’ve made some very good points and provided some practical means.”

Link then looked around at everyone, especially lingering on Jasmine’s face for a second, asking, “So, what are we going to do next?”

Jasmine understood the hint and quickly took over the conversation: “Research and experiments.”

“Yes, research and experiments.”

Link gave Jasmine a “great partner, what a tacit understanding” look, and continued, “Next, we need to research all the samples and specimens we’ve collected along the way and find a suitable location to build a sustainable ecosystem.”

After a pause, Link looked around at everyone’s expectant faces and said seriously:

“But now…

Everyone, go rest.”

Jasmine had thought that Link had paused on purpose to announce some important information, and yet…

Such an abrupt transition?

She grunted, rolled her eyes at Link, and was the first to rise and head to her tent for rest in her sleeping bag.

Indeed, it was quite late and everyone needed a good sleep.

The four brothers and the Social Phobia Trio also went to rest once they saw Jasmine’s action.

Dalton, who had been triggering stealth buffs for quite a while, stayed; he was m charge of the first night watch.

Link sat still, continuing to stare at the real-time reconnaissance screen.

“Boss, you should go rest too,”

Seeing Link hasn’t moved for a long time, Dalton urged, “I’ll take over the watch.”

“Hmm.”

Link nodded, stood up, and left.

After quickly setting up his tent, Link crawled into his sleeping bag, closed his eyes, but didn’t rush to sleep.

Instead, in his Hall of Memories, he replayed the reconnaissance footage of two reconnaissance puppets that he had strategically placed to monitor the every move of the Social Phobia Trio.

Link intended to unite all the available forces long ago,

He also communicated with the five brothers through Qi, trying to attract these three newcomers who had no connection with any Apprentice Organization during the two-zone competition.

However, the appearance of the Social Phobia Trio before Link was too coincidental,

The process of agreeing to join the team was too easy,

Even though there was Digee Finley acting as a bridge for communication.

Link could not get a read on the three in social phobia in a short time and it was not suitable to test them, so he could only observe them covertly as a feasible method.

If someone in the trio has ulterior motives, or has secret connections with others or organizations, it will be impossible to cover it up completely.

Once they act, they will definitely show their true colors.

What reassured Link a bit was that no one from the Social Phobia Trio made any unusual moves.

That was good enough.

Link didn’t want to always gather problem people around him, like Andriya Norman.

After the replay ended, Link entered Deep Meditation and went to sleep.

The next day.

There was no daylight in the tunnel, but Link’s biological clock woke him up on time.
