Before Hikaru realized what was happening, the vision of the future disappeared. It took a long time for him to calm himself down.
Hikaru was horrified when he remembered how the shadow moved so quickly, from the moment the shadow appeared to how he was cut into three sections in a couple of seconds. He couldn't even see the shadow's face because he was wearing a black cloak that covered most of his body.
He immediately looked at the information about that shadow. In the description of the skill 'Cosmic Insight', he could see the names of the people appearing in the visions of the future he had seen.
Suddenly, a message popped up.
[Ding! Your level is not enough to see that person's information.]
"My level is not high enough."
[Master this means that the level of that person is at least 10 levels higher than yours.]
Hikaru felt scared. Although he was able to easily defeat Sherwin, someone more terrible than Sherwin appeared. He speculated that perhaps the other person was a player from another world.
However, what puzzled Hikaru was: why would that player follow and protect Sherwin?
Hikaru felt a headache, so he chose to see what the future would be if he met Sherwin.
[Ding! You cannot watch the same type of future event twice.]
"Heh?"
[Master, you can only watch each future event once. If you watch it more than once, then the system will view it as an error and destroy you.]
Hikaru sighed, accepting the harsh reality. Although it was possible for him to see the future, it was only one aspect of the future.
[Master, I think you should see Sherwin].
"I think so too. In the vision of the future, I heard him say that I was his ally. Thus, in the near future, Sherwin will certainly not threaten my life. "
[To be more specific, the person in the black robe will not murder you.]
Hikaru nodded, feeling extremely tired. Just as he figured out how to defeat Sherwin, another enemy appeared. He thought that if he killed Sherwin, the other guy would definitely kill him, and if he was capable of killing the man in the black robe, another stronger person would appear.
This loop would continue until Hikaru dies or he kills all his enemies. He felt a headache as he thought about this.
"So... I want to see my team's results in this event. "
[Ding! You need to pay 20,000,000 soul points]
"Accept."
Then, the environment around Hikaru changed. He stood in the air about 100 meters above the ground. Below was a battlefield.
Hikaru could clearly see the Skeleton Dragon had been smashed to pieces and scattered on the ground. Sherwin clutched his bleeding stomach and looked ahead. The two players in Hikaru's party were also lying on the ground not far away from Sherwin. However, they seemed to be dead.
In front of Sherwin was a group of about 15 other players. Yes, Hikaru thought he was mistaken, but actually in front of Sherwin were 15 other players.
Although it was difficult to understand, Hikaru still watched silently. Besides, he also collected information about those 15 players and also about Sherwin.
Suddenly, the vision changed again. At this moment, Hikaru saw his territory, and while not understanding what was going on, a man in a black robe appeared.
He swung his sword and slashed out a streak of light. That streak of light instantly destroyed the defense of his territory and split it into two. The remaining energy from the light split the ground easily, as though it was cake.
At that moment, Vuni appeared. She wore a white dress, and she had silver hair. There were two dragon wings on her back and two curved dragon horns on her head. Vuni flew in the air, looked at the man in black, and asked, "Who are you?"
The man in black frowned at Vuni and said, "I didn't expect to meet a member of a rare race who accepts being a slave to humans in this place. However, you have followed the wrong person. Because your master is a coward. And because of him, my pieces are in trouble. "
"So... you came here to vent your anger?" Vuni did not give in and asked in a challenging voice.
"No, I came to kill your master."
"An ant dares to kill my master?" As soon as Vuni said that she waved her hand. Countless iron chains appeared and wrapped around the man in the black robe.
"What the hell?" The man in the black robe was startled. He didn't think he would be caught so easily.
"Stupid!" Vuni scolded. She waved her hand in front of the man in the robe, and the chain immediately tore his body apart.
Hikaru let out a sigh. He was lucky because Vuni was extremely strong. Otherwise, he would surely have been killed by the black-robed man.
However, the vision did not end. In the surrounding space countless snake-like eyes suddenly appeared and were all looking at Vuni. A voice carrying a tremendous pressure that made Hikaru feel suffocated rang out.
"So, you're here, Vuni."
When Vuni heard that voice, she was not surprised. She looked towards the sky, her face clearly showing tension.
Then… .
The vision stopped. Hikaru returned to reality. Although he had returned to reality, his heart was still pounding like a drum. Not because he was afraid of the man in the black robe, but because the pressure from that voice made him feel despair.
After a while, Hikaru calmed down. He asked Rika: "Whose voice is that?"
[I don't know. Maybe that voice belongs to some powerful existence. If they could easily appear in Misty World, you shouldn't ask about them because they will easily notice you.]
Hikaru wouldn't ask about them, of course, because Rika had told him that some powerful people could find out when people asked about them
Hikaru nodded as if he understood. However, he felt that Vuni's identity was special.
[Master.] At that moment, Rika's voice rang out again.
"What's wrong?"
[As I said before, the monsters you summon are people who are dead or imprisoned. Vuni also has a past and her own enemies.]
Hikaru suddenly understood what Rika was trying to explain: "You mean Vuni is probably not a dead person. When I summoned her, was she being held captive by someone else? "
[yes. When Vuni used her full power, her enemies must have noticed and immediately appeared.]
Hikaru nodded, feeling that this explanation made sense. He remembered the first time he met Vuni, she appeared dressed in rags. like that of a prisoner.
This also explains why Vuni is an Ancient Fairy Dragon, whose stats are very high, but when she fought with Sherwin, she lost. Maybe she couldn't use her full strength to avoid detection by her enemies.
Returning to Hikaru's problem, he felt a little resentful. Why did Sherwin fail? Why did the man in the black robe take his anger out on him?
Hikaru looked at the profiles of the 15 players Sherwin had faced. They all seemed to be more ordinary than Hikaru imagined. Their stats were not high, and the one with the best talent was just SSR.
"Strange, then why was Sherwin defeated by those 15 players? Besides, doesn't each team have just five people?"
[Master, didn't you realize that the system's rules for this event have too many loopholes?]
"Hm? You mean...
[Right. The system is trying to purge as many players as possible. The Party Battle may seem to p unite people,but in reality, the players in the party can destroy each other.]
"You mean... there's a traitor in my group?" Hikaru suddenly remembered the visions he had seen. On the ground, there was only Sherwin and the corpses of Mossye and Marine: "So... is Arasun the traitor? But why? Wouldn't he also die if he betrayed them? "
[Master, in order to defeat a player, it is not always necessary to kill them. Another way is to destroy their territory. As such, they will become free players, at which point they can occupy another territory to continue being a landlord, or they can become slaves to another players.]
Hikaru frowned upon hearing this. He felt that this was a huge loophole in the event. He continued to ask: "So what about the other 15 players?"
[Maybe they have already contacted each other and made a clear plan. After that, they teamed up to destroy the surrounding players first.]
[At that time, Master felt danger, so he didn't help Sherwin. Maybe that's why the man in black came to you to vent his anger.]
"Then why didn't he help Sherwin? With his tremendous power, he could easily kill the other 15 players."
[Perhaps the person is afraid that the system will detect him if he appears during the event.]
Hikaru heard that and got angry. Why was it that when something happened to Sherwin, that guy came to kill me? He took a deep breath and tried to calm down.
"I want to see what will happen to Arasun after the event is over."
[Ding! You need to pay 1,000,000 soul points.]
"Accept!"
When Hikaru saw Arasun, he was a thin, lazy-faced man who was lying on the bed, holding a small marble in his hand. He mumbled: "Fortunately, in my solo with Sherwin, I found his weak point; otherwise, even betraying him would not have been enough to kill him."
"Solo? Weakness?" Hikaru wondered if Sherwin had ever fought with Arasun.
Perhaps this guy's talent is the ability to find the enemy's weak points. "
Arasun suddenly looked at the marble in his hand passionately and said: "Although I am someone else's slave, as long as I find the treasure, no one will despise me anymore."
The vision of the future disappeared, and at this point, Hikaru determined that Arasun was definitely the traitor.
….
Elsewhere, Arasun was sitting in his room, thinking about how to find Sherwin. According to him, Sherwin was the strongest in the group, and just finding out Sherwin's weakness was enough; he didn't have to care about the other members. However, finding Sherwin was not easy because their surroundings were covered by fog. Even though he knew where the players were due to being in the same group, he didn't know which route to take to get to their place
Arasun suddenly heard footsteps outside. He frowned and shouted: "Who?"
Outside, a young man's voice replied: "Aren't you looking for me?"
"Sherwin? No way!"
