“WTF! He is right. I can not contact other teams either. What is happening? How is this possible?” Flower thief exclaimed after trying to contact the other five teams
“Don’t panic. Everything is going according to my calculations. Flower thief, the mission commences now. Take us to the VIP box no.1 at the fastest speed.” Ordering Flower thief, Grey Fur hurriedly messaged Madame Web, ‘Requesting immediate termination of Grinch. He is compromised’, seeing Grinch captured and being questioned by the Raining alchemist.
Seeing the Southern emperor enter her field card with 24 of his colleagues and the Raining alchemist busy with Grinch, Grey Fur decided to commence their part of the mission.
Grey Fur had gathered information on all the cards and rules of the Southern emperor and Raining alchemist while he waited for other teams to arrive. And when he witnessed the sudden non-stop rain covering the Sky blossom city. He knew the Raining Alchemist had almost activated his Positioning array to sniff them out.
Despite knowing this, Grey Fur did not warn his colleagues about the rain because he wanted to lower the enemy’s guard by letting them think that their plan was working. Yes, he used his colleagues as decoys. So that enemy would focus on these 25 Card emperors while leaving his team alone to execute the preliminary and original plan to assassinate Dalton Wyatt.
Taking the City hostage, the negotiations, the other 25 card emperors all served as a distraction. At the same time, Grey Fur and his team executed the original plan of assassinating the target using Flower’s origin card. Grey did not think twice before sacrificing the 25 card emperors because as long as he achieved the objective, madame web would not only forgive him but reward him handsomely.
The only thing out of Grey Fur’s calculation was the range of the Southern emperor’s unusual field card. According to the information he got, the scope of the field card was somewhere near 500 meters. But contrary to the information he got, the range of the Southern emperor’s Field card covered the entire city. This did not matter because the longer the southern emperor was gone, the better for them. It’s a pity that the other five teams will be sacrificed instead of just the 3rd team.
“Boss, we have reached the VIP box no.1 and have located the target. What now?” Having arrived at the destination, Flower thief asked for further instructions.
“Let us out. We will engage the three hostile card emperors. If you see an opening, take it and assassinate the boy. Then continue as planned.” Grey Fur ordered Flower thief as he prepared to ambush the unsuspecting enemy.
*Boom!* Just when the Flower thief was about to let his teammates out of the ocean mask, a massive explosion occurred in the VIP box.
…
“Wyatt, do not worry. I have modified the array of the VIP box so it can withstand the blow of a card Emperor. Now, will you please give me a little space?” Seeing me stick close to her, Luna assured me in annoyance.
“Good, that’s assuring.” I said sarcastically and did not leave Luna’s side. Fook, What is a lousy array going to do against the attack of 25 card emperors? Come to think of it, what is Luna going to do against 25 card emperors?
*sigh* Luna let out a sigh in frustration. She did not understand what her Cousin saw in this cowardly boy for her to be captivated by him.
“…” Hearing Luna’s sigh, I knew I could not trust them with my Life. Especially the two unknown card emperors, they could feel very suspicious vibes from them. My gut told me that they were not to be trusted and more incapable than Luna.
Realizing that I had to guard my own life, while I scanned the VIP box with my soul pupils regularly, I thought hard, trying to come up with a solution for my current predicament. After a good minute, an Idea came to my mind, but thanks to the presence of Luna and the other two card emperors, I could not act upon it because it involved me using my Calamity soul gem.
While I was contemplating whether to risk revealing my Calamity Soul gem to secure my Life, during my regular scan of the VIP box using my soul pupils, I saw a floating mask made up of water entering the VIP box. Seeing the water mask, all my alarms screamed bloody mary in my mind.
“Summon Cloud Lord
Summon Purple Thunder
Skill Detonate.” Without hesitation, I summoned my ego elementals and then blasted them. My opponents were Card emperors except for hoping that the energy from exploding two broken rune ego elementals would damage them. I had no other moves in my arsenal.
“Fook! Wyatt. Have you gone crazy?” Luna yelled in shock, seeing me detonate two broken runes in the middle of the room without warning.
“Enemy attack” The floating Water mask had high stealth. If not for my soul pupils, I would not have noticed it. It’s no surprise that Luna, or her modified array, did not detect the floating water mask. Alerting Luna and the other two card emperors about the enemy, I summoned my other ego elementals.
“Where, I do not see any?” The younger Card emperor yelled, unable to find the enemy I alerted them about.
“Idiot, they are using high-end stealth.” In the spar of the moment, I forgot the opposite party was a Card emperor and called him Idiot. Thankfully before the younger Card emperor could react to my words, the enemy launched their attack.
“Kill them all” out of nowhere, four-card Emperors appeared in the VIP box. And they seemed to focus on attacking everyone in the room except me. This puzzled me, but soon, I was enlightened when I saw the floating water mask head towards me at incredible speed. Before I could react, the water mask appeared right next to me, and a figure dashed out of it, aiming for my head…
*Boom*
“Wyatt!”
