The Inevitable Path Dependence
As Irving and the others took action, Elder Howard quickly arrived at the secret base of the Night Blades located on the outskirts of the City of Warding. Although Elder Howard had never been here before, he possessed all the information regarding this secret base.
Before taking action, Elder Howard had made sure to familiarize himself with all the intelligence related to the Night Blades around the City of Warding. Initially, Elder Howard had planned to use the secret base on the outskirts of the City of Warding as a hideout. However, after the events that had transpired, he felt it was unnecessary to do so.
"Although my previous operation failed, I have successfully gathered intel on Irving and his group," he stated.
Inside the secret base, numerous members of the Night Blades were listening attentively to Elder Howard's instructions.
