Chapter 672: Two Options

<Good morning, big brother. I slept really well.>

<It’s the afternoon.>

<Good afternoon, big brother. Did you sleep well?>

<No, but I got an amazing massage.>

<Huh?>

Kaiden did not respond, merely smiling as he began getting interrogated in his head.

Renoa appeared from behind a supply tent with a clipboard and a blush that arrived before she did. "Your armor’s been inspected and repaired. Though some pieces couldn’t be saved... We brought you new ones where replacements were needed."

"Thank you, Renoa."

She opened her mouth, closed it, made a note on her clipboard, and retreated at speed.

The gang got dressed in their armor, then Kaiden pulled up the competition standings on his projection artifact.

New Dawn: 101,880.

Iron Halo: 91,900.

Ashbound: 89,410.

Silver Talon: 69,640.

Runewoven: 65,590.

They were closing on Silver Talon. The trajectory was good. Though the gap to first was big.

Luna was reading over his shoulder. She did the math and did not like it.

"That’s bullshit."

Kaiden glanced at her.

"We killed a level 79 monster. 79! 28 levels above us." Luna’s hands were on her hips, Storm crackling in her hair.

"And we got 250 points for it. 250! You know what a level 51 Ridgehowler gives? 50."

She pulled up her own artifact and started swiping through the logs with the furious efficiency of a woman building a court case.

"We could farm ten Ridgehowlers in the time it took us to find and kill that Borer Queen and then recover from the fight. Maybe even twenty! Twenty kills at 50 points each is a 1000 points, all the while facing much smaller risks." She threw her hands up. "Instead, we went all out against something that could’ve wiped us, and the Association handed us a whopping 250. A quarter of what safe farming would’ve earned in the same window!"

Aria nodded, her expression thoughtful. "Those are the rules that have been announced since the competition began... 50 points for monsters between levels 51-75 and 250 points for monsters between levels 76-99. But you’re right... The risk-to-reward ratio for anything above seventy-five doesn’t make sense for us. We’d need to chain multiple kills at that tier to justify the danger, and we barely survived one."

Nyx spoke up.
