The Witches Want Snacks

Resting Area.
As soon as Lan Qingyou mentioned this place, Alisa immediately realized what she was thinking.
“Is there something wrong with that? Now that the Transparent Person has left, the space in the Resting Area will likely be closed off. It would be a total waste to just leave all that gourmet food sitting there.”
“Especially those Blue Star snacks. The girls are really craving them.”
Faced with Alisa's question, Lan Qingyou remained very calm.
In fact, just yesterday, the members of the Witch Group were expressing their envy in the chat over Lan Qingyou being able to eat those snacks.
You see, snacks possess a massive amount of killing power when it comes to girls.
Ever since the Shackle Chests disappeared, everyone’s snack supply had basically been cut off.
Although there were plenty of 'snacks' like the ones Gu Xiaobei ate, not everyone had the stomach for them.
Even if dealing with little bugs was common for witches, brewing them into a potion and putting them into one's mouth while they still looked like bugs were two completely different concepts.
Nearly a year had passed, and just as everyone was about to forget such things, 'it' had arrived.
Not only did it come, but it even displayed all those snacks in front of the camera like it was showing off.
This caused many people who saw the scene to experience something akin to withdrawal symptoms.
This wasn't just limited to the witches; others felt the same way.
So last night... or at least before she went to bed, Lan Qingyou had been pestered to no end by those girls.
Now that she had the chance, she naturally intended to loot everything, if only so they would stop bothering her.
“That's not a problem, but didn't you put mushroom spores in all that wine?” Alisa asked doubtfully as she opened the portal to the Resting Area.
“Oh, that. That was just some nonsense to scare Xin Tianle, to make him believe he had been poisoned so I could create the conditions to actually poison him.”
“No matter how capable I am, I couldn't have actually predicted that he would drink the wine. After all, it was a major semi-finals match.” Lan Qingyou shrugged as she explained.
“Oh? Is that so?”
“Of course.”
“Fine, let's go with that.”
With that, Alisa gave Lan Qingyou a meaningful look before stepping into the portal.
In her view, not a single word out of Lan Qingyou's mouth was the truth—or rather, every word felt like she was digging a pit for someone.
So!
As long as she didn't believe a word the other woman said, she wouldn't fall into any pits.
This was the biggest lesson she had learned from this competition.
“Ursula, you go back first. I'll head back after I finish tidying up.”
“No need. I'll go with the Clan Leader; it'll be faster with two people.”
Although Ursula wasn't a member of the Witch Group, she was well aware of the snack situation.
After all, even at the tea party, many people were talking about it.
Now that the Clan Leader had secured this benefit for everyone, she naturally had to stay and lend a hand.
“Clan Leader, are we going back now?”
With Ursula joining in, the two of them quickly swept up all the food, drinks, and snacks in the Resting Area.
They didn't even spare the flowing chocolate fountain.
“Yeah, let's head back. I wonder how chaotic it is outside right now.”
Since they had been busy working right after the match, neither of them had checked the messages on their cards yet.
But since they had already won, there was bound to be a celebration outside.
So Lan Qingyou had no intention of taking out her card, and seeing that she wasn't looking, Ursula didn't look either.
However, when Lan Qingyou and her companion returned to the Tree Hollow teleportation circle, they found it crowded with people...
Diana, Susie, Margaret, and all the other cadre-level members were there.
“Hahaha, are you all here to welcome us? So many people!”
When she saw the crowd, Lan Qingyou wasn't even startled; after all, it was to be expected.
But after making the joke, she noticed that everyone's expressions seemed a bit off.
These looks of slight anger and confusion were definitely not the faces of people there to celebrate.
“What happened?” Lan Qingyou asked, keenly noticing that something was wrong.
In response, Diana, without saying a word, simply handed her card to Lan Qingyou.
Lan Qingyou looked and saw a pinned message on the world channel.
And the message was the very one discussing the Supreme Council's claim that the Witch race had gained four thousand attribute points.
“Pfft...”
After reading it, Lan Qingyou couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.
Diana and the others reacted the same way upon seeing Lan Qingyou's response.
“Hahaha, these people are too much! To think... they'd actually believe such unrealistic rumors...”
“Heh, you're telling me.”
“I almost died laughing when I saw those messages.”
“I thought everyone who survived until now wasn't a fool, but it seems I was too naive.”
The group of managers from the Abandoned Land stood before the Tree Hollow teleportation circle, laughing their heads off.
They were laughing, of course, at those who believed such baseless rumors.
Setting aside the fact that those attribute points would normally take hundreds of levels to obtain, the mere fact that people believed it just because someone invoked the name of the Supreme Council showed that those idiots didn't use their brains.
If that were really the case, the first ones to jump out would be the Supreme Council itself, not someone spreading rumors.
It seemed she had overestimated those people.
After laughing for a while and realizing that Diana and the others' previous expressions were purely because they couldn't keep a straight face, everyone dispersed to go about their business.
Of course.
Before that, they still took everything they had looted from the Resting Area back with them.
As for the witches of the Witch Group, Lan Qingyou would be the one to distribute the goods.
Er... actually, there wasn't much to distribute.
Because the items had been stored directly into the group storage during the looting, Lan Qingyou only needed to send them a notification.
Of course.
Even just a notification was a huge surprise for the witches.
Dream Witch: “Wow, you really got them! Boss, I love you!”
Moonlight Witch: “It's been so long since I've had something as exciting as popping candy.”
Flame Witch: “I never eat that stuff. These spicy strips from the East are more to my taste.”
Thorn Witch: “We should eat them sparingly, or else we'll all be acting like addicts again when they're gone.”
Steel Witch: “Carpe diem is the true meaning of life. Those future problems aren't for us to worry about.”
Although the other witches didn't have Lan Qingyou's undying attribute, they were still a long-lived race that could live for hundreds of years.
So there were quite a few witches who, like the Steel Witch, intended to enjoy their lives to the fullest.
Lan Qingyou naturally wouldn't stop them.
After all, everyone has their own life to live.
Even if some witches chose to migrate their shelters here and then leave to travel, Lan Qingyou wouldn't interfere.
“Ah...”
Lan Qingyou, who had just finished bathing and was lying down, was about to browse the group chat when she suddenly realized a very serious problem.
“Crap! I forgot to bring the chaise longue!”
