''Let me check. '' As one of the men said and walked over to investigate, he realized that what he thought was a puddle of snow was actually made of fur, and that gray thing is a number written 1.

''It's a mob! '' The man yelled and jumped backward. But it was a little late. His shoulder was pierced by the snow rabbit's long, sharp horn as it shot through the snow like a rocket.

''Aghh... '' In pain from his injured arm, the man cried out. The horn would have pierced his chest rather than his arm if he had been a little slower in moving to avoid it.

''Wind Cleave. ''

The other man immediately shouted, raising the short wand in his hand, and the green wind disk flew from the tip of the wand and slammed into the rabbit stuck in the man's shoulder, knocking it off.

The injured man must have been affected by the skill's blow as well, because he fell backward and landed between Helen's breasts, which felt like a pillow.

''Oh my, are you alright? '' The man felt a heavenly sensation in the back of his head as he looked up at Helen's concerned expression, and then he thanked the man who used the skill and the rabbit who pierced his shoulder in his heart.

''I believe you also suffered a head injury; this could be serious. You need to be treated as soon as possible. '' The team's healer said quickly, staring at the red-faced man with blood streaming from his nose.

''Life Sense. '' Healer man said,

*BONK*

angrily hitting the wounded man on the head with the knob of his long staff.

'Is this the real meaning of "knocking some sense into someone's head?'' ' After he recovered from the blow to his head and realized he was still in the middle of the match, the injured man stood up. His shoulder wound had already started to heal.

One of the team's men took the dead snow rabbit's body and showed it to his teammates, saying. ''These things seem to have very good camouflage abilities. We must be careful. ''

''True, my investigative-type skill can't pinpoint them either. '' Helen added with a gloomy expression.

When one of the men saw Helen's sad state, he immediately said. ''Don't worry, I believe this map is extremely difficult. Even though the enemy team has not earned any points, we have got one.'''

''Mhm, I think you are right. '' Helen said with a smile to the man. The other members of the team nodded in agreement as well.



The team regained their courage and was about to continue when they were interrupted by a system message.

*Ding*

[Your team gained 1 point.]

[Since you made no contributions to the battle, you won't gain any shared experience.]

''What the hell?! ''

''Huh? Where did this point come from? ''

''Don't tell me? It can't be right? ''

Helen stared at the system message as the men expressed their surprise among themselves.

''Is he still alive in this cold, despite the fact that he's naked?  Although he is weak physically, his willpower must be formidable. On top of that, his luck is very good, as he discovered and killed an already dying mob. ''

Helen immediately made her deduction. Just as Seraher and her team did in the previous match, Helen and her team are making the same mistake, believing Raydon was simply lucky.

''At the very least, he contributed to the team by earning one point.''  After quickly and carefully dismantling the snow rabbit they had killed and handing it to Helen, one of the men said.

The other two men saw this, but they kept quiet about it. Even their faces conveyed jealousy, as if they regretted not having thought of the idea themselves.

''All right, let's find the next mob… '' The sound of another system message interrupted the healer man as he was speaking.

[Your team gained 1 point.]

[Since you made no contributions to the battle, you won't gain any shared experience.]

''What the fuck is going on here? '' The injured man couldn't help but curse.

''He is still just lucky right? '' Other one spoke, his face completely fell with another system message.

[Your team gained 1 point.]

[Since you made no contributions to the battle, you won't gain any shared experience.]

A deep silence fell upon everyone. They were now certain that it wasn't luck. Because the system messages came one after another and did not even give them a chance to think, they were at a loss for words to describe the situation.





[Your team gained 1 point.]

[Since you made no contributions to the battle, you won't gain any shared experience.]



[Your team gained 1 point.]



[Your team gain…

Thus, the system message was heard 7 more times.

''B-But h-he is just level 1. '' In a trembling voice, the healer man said. He had never seen anything like this before, and the person in question was a level 1 item holder with no items on top of that.

Others were too taken aback to respond to the man. Helen's face in particular looked pale.

'What have I done? ' It was all she could think about. The person she dismissed as useless and refused to accept into the team with harsh words was, in fact, the strongest of them all, including herself.

'I missed the real treasure because I was dealing with these insignificant things.' Helen looked at her teammates, who were still in disbelief as they continued to stare at the system message, feeling as though she had wasted all her money on the wrong horse.

''Come to yourselves now. We're wasting our time,'' Helen yelled furiously. Her previous loving and sweet self was completely gone.

The men also nodded in agreement while still in shock, paying little attention to Helen's behavior.

They departed once more in search of the next mob with sour faces. They walked around aimlessly for a while, found a few snow rabbits, and killed them, but they couldn't even rejoice in this because Raydon also added three more team points during this time.
