The tolling bells still echoed in his ears.
Although Qin Ran already knew this was Boyle's prank, that did not make it any easier for him to accept the scene before him.
Instead, he felt even more embarrassed.
Revenge!
Revenge for what happened when we faced the threat of the Beast of Desire!
Qin Ran looked at Boyle, who ignored his glare and winked at him instead.
Seeing the smile on Boyle's lips, Qin Ran immediately realized what was going on.
Instinctively, Qin Ran wanted to retaliate.
But before he could speak,
lines of information began appearing on his retinas.
[Main quest completion confirmed!] [The player will leave the special instance in five minutes...] [Please take whatever items you can carry as your carried-out items!] (Note: any items exceeding your carrying capacity will automatically be classified as items that cannot be taken out of the instance!)
"Damn it!"
Qin Ran frowned.
At that moment, he really wanted to ask the system just how it had reached this supposed "confirmation."
The main quest was to reestablish the rules of the West Coast's Mystery Side within three months.
Yet he had only just eliminated the Shepherds of the Dead and certain members of the East Coast's and West Coast's Mystery Sides. He had not actually defined any rules.
Could it be...
"I uphold Lei's ideals..."
Qin Ran suddenly recalled those words he had spoken after his first battle with the East Coast's Mystery Side at the West Coast docks.
If the system had based its judgment on that statement, it made perfect sense.
But this completely disrupted Qin Ran's plans. Originally, he should have had plenty of time to "complete" the main quest and prepare to leave.
He might even have gained something special!
But now...
"Damn it all!"
