Half an hour later, in an office within Carn Heavy Industries.
A middle-aged man dressed in a magician’s robe flicked an envelope: "Indeed, it’s the Rodale Family’s emblem, and there’s no magic with any effect found. Moreover, every letter inside was cut from newspapers or books, so the magic is untraceable."
"As expected from a once-great family. And as the only heir to the family, he’s much more difficult to deal with than those newcors."
"Is Luca trying to form so kind of partnership with us during the Seven Kings War?"
"Both of our Contractor identities have been exposed. Compared to his one-man-family size, we are too conspicuous and the easiest to find among the seven parties. If he wants to cooperate, he can only find us."
"He didn’t co personally but targeted our employees? Very cautious of him."
"You and I both know, if he dared to co personally, we wouldn’t have a calm conversation with him." The magician who first spoke put the envelope on the office desk, making a certain collision sound: "We’re all opponents, wishing that the other side would choke from drinking water. The mont we et is to fight each other. But you also know that since the sixth-generation Heroic Spirits, although they’re weaker in terms of combat power, they have more bizarre abilities. This ti, either the Berserker Rank or Assassin Rank can perceive other Heroic Spirits or Contractors."
"So, when summoning the Knight Rank, we were caught off guard. If it weren’t for our Knight Rank’s ability to protect the Contractor and fight at the sa ti, we would have lost the Seven Kings War long ago."
"That’s right, and Luca’s Archer Heroic Spirit can counter the opponents during sieges." The magician took out a piece of tal from the envelope, which was a part of the triangular helt of the Berserker heroic spirit, and there were still traces of blood on it.
"Are the knights going to et the archers alone? If it’s a trap..."
"Yes, it could be an agreent with Berserker Rank or Assassin Rank Heroic Spirit to ambush our heroic spirits. After all, when our people arrived at the Rodale Family’s old mansion, they only saw the destroyed courtyard and didn’t know what had happened."
"So, this piece of iron from the opponent’s Berserker Heroic Spirit’s helt is just part of an act?"
"The alliance of three heroic spirits? The Archer disguising cooperation as an excuse to backstab?"
"Calm down, everyone. Ghost Rider, what do you think?"
"Actually, there’s not much to say. Since the opponent only asks , a heroic spirit, to go, it ans the Contractor can always activate the Mark of the King to call back. Presumably, the other party also does this to ensure their own safety. This is the precondition for both sides to communicate and cooperate." The man in the room who hadn’t spoken so far finally spoke, wearing tight leather clothes and a motorcycle helt.
He was the Knight Rank Heroic Spirit of this Seven Kings War, [Ghost Rider·Arrow in the Knee].
He picked up the iron sheet and looked at it, seeing an [Evolution Ga] note appear in his consciousness.
Making sure this was indeed a piece of [Equipnt].
So he told the others: "Facing all three heroic spirits, defeat is inevitable, but with my abilities, I can hold out for so ti. As soon as sothing seems wrong, imdiately pull back."
"Don’t think about ambushing there in advance. Their Contractor must be hiding in a safe place, rashly revealing hostility might backfire." Arrow in the Knee knocked on his helt and said, "The Carn Family is big and influential. I’m sure none of you want to face a spirit seeking revenge, do you?"
The magicians nodded slightly. Although they didn’t have the habit of recording the Seven Kings War,
As the last winning family, they still had so understanding of the event.
So heroic spirits are extrely upright and even disdain to carry out actions contrary to their principles, leaving their helpless Contractors to forcibly use the Mark of the King as a last resort.
So heroic spirits are utterly evil, and the acts of killing they committed to win make even the less humane magicians feel terrified.
In order to poison the Contractor effectively, so even dared to spread a dangerous virus called the ’T-Virus’ in the city, causing hundreds of casualties. Magicians across the city found themselves facing various threats.
Of course, this also led to the death of that particular spirit at the hands of several other spirits.
So, if we really corner the opponent this ti, they might directly target the high-ranking people or employees of Carn Heavy Industries, which would make losses too huge.
"Upright people, of course, are easy to deal with, but those here... the spirits should not all be counted among them." Arrow in the Knee replied.
No matter what role the opponents play in reality, reliable parents, filial children, lively students,
In the task, they all have only one identity, and that is [Player].
Especially for this ti’s task, the requirents are stringent, and those who can co here are not easy-going characters.
In other tasks, the teammates or opponents they encountered were strong in strategy, analysis, or personal combat power.
But in this task, all the opponents are so strong that they are suffocating.
From the confrontation with Berserker and Assassin [Players] two days ago, Arrow in the Knee recognized this fact.
"I wonder what kind of monsters the last two are. Let et this third-ranked one first." Arrow in the Knee glanced at the magicians discussing strategy beside him, thinking, "Just right, I also have the idea of contacting other players."
"However, the other side’s intention is to et in Central Park. There are too many people and it’s too ssy; is it suitable to et?" A magician wondered.
"That... shouldn’t be a problem." Arrow in the Knee thought, there was a thod for [Player] to recognize each other.
Five hours later.
As dusk fell, Arrow in the Knee, dressed in ordinary clothes, sat on a bench in Central Park, scanning the entire park.
Seeing no one with any strange movents, he lit up his [Player Naplate].
[Ghost Rider·Arrow in the Knee]
This was the most reliable thod for [Player] to confirm each other’s identity, a naplate that can only be seen by [Players]. This effectively avoided the risk of teammates being replaced by so strange things.
In other tasks, [Players] were sotis so cautious that they didn’t even want to reveal their teammates’ identities, fearing that the opponent would calculate their abilities through their Title.
But in this task, [Evolution Ga] had already told everyone’s naplates, so there was no need to hide.
This was the thod to find [Player] in the crowd.
However, after shining the naplate for five minutes, he didn’t see any [Player Naplate] appearing on anyone’s head.
Just as Arrow in the Knee wondered if he had been left out, a snack cart pulled up next to him and asked, "Do you want a hot dog?"
"...The players in this task are really diverse."
