Chapter 1502: Chapter 460: The Correct Way to Unfold Hidden Plot_2 Chapter 1502: Chapter 460: The Correct Way to Unfold Hidden Plot_2 Sack had no trouble catching on to what the Simon Family ant.
These guys wanted to monopolize this storyline branch.
This had happened in previous examinations too, where so powerful families utilized their influence to monopolize resources and information within the Trial Space and received exceedingly high evaluations.
But this, in turn, resulted in very poor assessnt scores for the other trialists.
So story missions were not shareable, and anyone with a clear mind knew the village chief was surely a key storyline character. Being preempted could an losing this clue entirely.
And Duke Landon and Duke Simon’s Mansion were still sworn enemies.
eting in the sa Trial Space ant that whoever took the initiative could lead to a better examination score.
Therefore, there could be no compromise now.
Young Master Sack hardly glanced at the Knight, angrily shouting, “Get out of the way! Don’t block !”
As soon as these words ca out, both sides instantly beca tense with confrontation.
Simon House had already gathered three teams, nearly twenty people in total.
The Landon Family was visibly at a disadvantage in numbers.
Neither side willing to give in, they were about to co to blows.
At that mont, a young noble with green hair stepped forward, snickering, “Yo, what’s going on here…”
The person was none other than Young Master Ferren, whom they had seen previously at the Black Market in Giant Spirit City.
The knights wouldn’t dare to attack Sack, but Ferren wasn’t afraid at all. He looked at the belated Sack and didn’t conceal his mockery, “What? Sack, have you forgotten the Trial rules of the academy? We found this clue first, are you thinking of robbing us openly?”
Previously at the Black Market, Leonard Churchill and his group decisively eliminated the key figure “Scarface,” causing significant losses to the Simon Family.
Although everyone knew it was done by the Landon Family.
However, Leonard Churchill and his group were so decisive and thorough that they left no opportunity for a coback.
With the accumulated grievances till now, how could Ferren miss the opportunity to suppress his family’s enemy upon seeing Sack in a tough spot?
“Hmpf! Let’s go!”
Seeing that it was Ferren, Sack snorted coldly and walked away without looking back.
If it were just a group of Simon House knights, he could have relied on his dukedom to pressure the others into giving up the storyline clue.
But with Ferren there, there was no chance.
The mbers of the Landon Family also turned and left.
Mocking laughter from Young Master Ferren followed them, “Yo, Sack, wait up… don’t leave. We’ll share the information with you once we’re done.”
…
Sack’s expression grew incredibly grim.
This trial had been unsatisfactory; it seed like nothing had gone smoothly since their arrival.
Not only had they suffered an attack, risking the loss of an elite guard, but now the storyline clue was cut off, which essentially ant they couldn’t expect a good score.
It wasn’t just him; everyone in the team looked displeased.
Except for Leonard.
…
Leonard was unnoticeably quiet throughout the whole situation.
When they first entered the village and saw the notice board being torn down, he had already anticipated this scenario.
Their two small squads had been attacked earlier in the forest, and their healing delay had cost them so ti, so arriving late was normal.
For a slightly bolder family, monopolizing the storyline clue was inevitable.
Now that Simon House had monopolized the main storyline, normally, it would be nearly impossible for others to surpass them in the assessnt.
But… that was under normal circumstances.
The very nature of the Alternate Dinsion was to encourage adventuring.
The main storyline was just the conventional difficulty, guiding adventurers to so extent, like a newbie guide;
The really valuable items were in “veteran mode,” relying on hidden storylines.
Leonard had previously obtained things like the Spell Clay Pot, Xismark Holy Grail, and Power Stone Golden Sphere in low-level Alternate Dinsions, which were Supre treasures.
It wasn’t that the low-level Alternate Dinsions lacked valuable items; it was whether you were eligible to trigger those hidden high-difficulty storylines.
So having the main route cut off didn’t bother Leonard.
He closely observed everything in the village, countless prior exploration experiences told him hidden storylines were often concealed in inconspicuous places.
As the Landon Family mbers walked, they discussed.
“Simon House has monopolized the main storyline, should we head to another village?”
“It’s probably too late. There are several strong teams in this Alternate Dinsion. The team from the Red Dragon Royal Family is not far… our situation would likely be similar if we go there.”
“Now this is problematic, without the main storyline information, should we just go directly to Black Crow Castle?”
…
The suggestion to head directly to Black Crow Castle was raised again.
Even Young Master Sack seed tempted.
With the main line cut off and having already lost the lead, this seed the only way they could potentially turn defeat into victory during the assessnt.
Although everyone knew the risks, seeing Young Master Sack’s desire to survive, no one had a better plan, nor did anyone dare to dissuade him.
However, seeing this, Leonard finally spoke up, “Young Master, I think this space exploration isn’t that simple. The monster in the forest earlier, along with the Red Dragon Royal Family’s assembly signal, both suggest this trial carries unknown risks…”
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to go to Black Crow Castle, but he noticed the village’s tall wooden fence that seed to guard against so large beasts, or perhaps monsters…
Although uncertain of what it was, the environnt outside the village was definitely dangerous.
Venturing out without any information posed a high risk.
Earlier, a bandit leader had nearly reduced their numbers; in this dium-sized Trial Space for five hundred people, not having hundreds of bandits wouldn’t make sense.
Moreover, Leonard had sensed that so many strong teams being in the sa Alternate Dinsion at once was no coincidence.
