59 Farewells (1/2)
(XD) ”What? The Vespers have actually decided to contract those three? This will be an extremely troublesome hurdle.” Xu Da commented. Baron had returned back to his HQ and had just delivered the bad news to Xu Da and the rest.
(BM) ”Unfortunately this is the reality of the situation. The only thing we can do is get as much about the three of these aerial masters and try to find a weakness that we can exploit when the faction selection tournament.”
(YF) ”These three are fairly well known within the Chinese community so getting information about them shouldn't be too difficult. What I'm more concerned about is whether or not we can even beat them.” Yue Fei said with a stern face.
(HX) ”No need to worry about that just yet. I think I may have a plan to destabilize their relationship with some help from another community.” Han Xin said wickedly.
(BM) ”What might this plan of yours be?”
(HX) ”This plan will involve a few tactics that are deemed unsavory by a strategists standard. However, we need the highest possible chance to win this tournament.”
(BC) ”Just skip to the part where you tell us your plan please.” Ban Chao said a bit impatiently.
(HX) ”Well, throughout my travels throughout the other communities, I have actually stopped by the Australian community where one of the trio is from.”
(BM) ”William Bridges? He should be the one that has been here on planet 4 for the shortest amount of time out of all three of them. What are you planning on doing then?”
(HX) ”If I bring a few fairly high ranking members of our community then I believe that I can actually make this Australian fellow be unable to participate in the upcoming tournament. Though I must admit that I am not too confident in my chances.”
(BM) ”You will be manipulating things from the shadows? Isn't that exactly what got you and your clan executed when you were back on Earth? I'm surprised that you would even consider this type of action.”
(HX) ”It's because our chances are low that I would even consider such a cowardly move. Though this kind of situation is quite common here on Planet 4.”
(MT) ”If I may just add, I think that this is actually the best way to go about this situation. Me and Meng Yi may be semi masters in this field. However, we have gone up against a few masters ourselves and the outcome was that we were completely outclassed in terms of blueprints and tactics.” Meng Tian said with a pained expression on his face.
(MY) ”My brother is correct. We must resort to these measures if we are to have any chance of winning the tournament now. Perhaps with these new blueprints we have shrunk down the gap, but we aren't anywhere near close to bridging it. We will need to do our utmost best in our practices to do that. I know for a fact that most of the aerial masters residing within the Chinese community have become lazy and have stopped training since it has been a long time since there was anyone that was able to challenge their position.” Meng Yi chimed out.
(BM) ”Have you ever faced any of these three?”
(MY) ”Not these three specifically but we have seen them battle before. They are no less amazing in their incredible execution and timing of attacks in conjunction with each other. Perhaps even better than me and my brother.”
(BM) ”That is quite distressing to hear. Han Xin, you said you needed to bring a few people with you?”
(HX) ”Yes, I can influence a bit of the Australian scene since they are relatively new to Planet 4 in general. I'm thinking of bringing Xu Da and Ban Chao with me. The three of us are after all unlikely going to participate in the tournament after all. You only need 5 for that and the three of us are the worst three in this regard.”
(BM) ”I see so you had already thought that far ahead. Are the two of you alright with this?”
