Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master
Chapter 559 The Countermeasures
"Taking Smith down is a message, a warning and wake up call for all of us… Don't forget, Smith wasn't weak. He was a dark gold master who I personally trained. So taking him out like this isn't an easy feat."
"What do you have in mind, boss?" Ibra asked, and William didn't joke with him this time. In such a dark moment, William was the only one who could guide them through all the traps and schemes they'd face.
"If they knew us this well, then they had to prepare three things…" William raised three fingers in the air before adding, "a grand army of dark masters, all with spirits, elements, and techniques that counter and negate all of our strong points… But that alone isn't enough. You saw what happened to these turtles when they thought they got the upper hand."
William winked, returning to his carefree attitude, "so they'll prepare a swarm of monsters to drown us with, and keep us busy dealing with them. These monsters are going to act like fodders, distractions for us, while the grand army of dark masters will hunt us one by one in the middle of all this chaos."
"This…"
"We fear no monsters!"
William raised his hand to stop everyone before adding, "it's not just monsters that we have to worry about. In fact, the enemies who are lurking in darkness, lying in wait for us, are the main problem."
"We can scatter detection arrays around," Berry said, before turning to Thomas as everyone else did, "and… We got our trouble lord to deal with this problem, right?"
"Not enough," William shook his head, "we need to use tactics to deal with this situation. After all, there is another factor that they have to prepare to take us down."
"Which is?" They returned to look at his three fingers raised in the air. He spoke about two things, missing the third one out.
"They have to set up a sealing array, one that will prevent us from leaving by any means possible…" William had seen this deep into the enemies' grand scheme. It was expected, per his vast and rich battle experience, he could think of different scenarios about any situation.
William was sure such a grand scheme wouldn't appear out of thin air. They must have prepared and planned for this for a long time, even from the end of that grand war.
And that meant they spent tons of time, effort, and wealth to set such trap. The last thing anyone in their shoes would love to see was for their targets to walk freely away from all this, escape to a safe place, away from the place they sat their deadly trap at.
So they needed to fill that area with sealing arrays. William even expected them to go all out and use such rare and extremely powerful formations that would render any spirit master with a space element useless.
Of course, none of his vices realised all this. They just got what he told them, and he didn't bother with that. They were still young and accompanying him in such a long journey would let them mature up quite fast.
"If they are going to do that… Can't we use a countermeasure or something? Prepare an array to negate this trap."
"It's not that easy," William looked at Lang, before adding, "we need first to know the nature of this array before thinking about how to counter it."
"This…" Everyone exchanged silent gazes with each other. William's words were clear, they got to fall first for this trap before they'd think about doing anything else.
But if they already fell into that trap, getting affected by the sealing arrays there, then didn't it mean they were gambling with everything here? "What if… What if we didn't have a way to crack this array?" Ibra said what everyone else had in mind and didn't dare to say it out loud.
"Well… We'll die," William said as if this was something easy or trivial.
"But… You surely have a plan, right?" Sara looked at William as if she was seeing him for the first time, "or else you won't gather us to speak about any of this!"
"Of course," William smiled, an evil grin actually appeared on his face, "but to do it, we need to start organising ourselves, preparing lots of things right now."
"Like what?" John asked, "you just say the word and we'll execute it."
"The first and foremost important thing is the grenades. Inform Sith, let him prepare Oliver and his friends, be ready to deploy the grenades at any given notice."
The first thing William asked them to do was to notify Sith and his old team, or who remained of them. William got Sith's team just as he desired. Panther didn't even realise how big such a loss was by throwing away such a capable team.
William didn't just stop there. Sith got only one spirit master with the ability and knowledge to make grenades and build mines. The rest fell in the old hectic run from the Nightmare monster.
And so, William asked this fellow to go and recruit more people like him. He didn't just promise them a huge amount of wealth, but also lots of techniques and tricks they could use in building much fiercer and deadlier grenades and landmine traps.
Like this, five joined his team formally, while around five hundred joined the second profession department. After all, most of them saw in themselves just tools to build such deadly war supplies, not seeing in themselves what it took to do it themselves at the various battlefields.
William didn't care about that. He only cared about their grenades. So he let those who wanted to live in peace to join his secondary profession department, taking in just five.
They volunteered to join his Dark Tails team. In fact, they came to join his guild normal teams. But William wouldn't commit the same mistake as Panther.
