The woman who had insulted Arthur laughed and said,
"Not only can I insult you, but I can also insult your delusional family, too! Do you really think we don't know the truth? Ivy isn't the type to push away her poor fiancé just because she got a rich one. She has worked from the very start of this base. I personally saw how Ivy worked herself to exhaustion... building this base and making it a safe haven for everyone! Instead of helping her get to higher levels and making sure this base continues to be a safe haven, people like Arthur are constantly trying to pull her down! Does he have no shame?"
Others joined in and pointed at Marcus, shouting,
"If you dare to look down on Ivy or slander her again, we will beat you and kill you! After all, in this apocalypse, killing isn't a big deal!"
Some even maliciously sized him up, causing Marcus's soul to tremble in fear. He never realized Ivy had such an impact on the entire base.
