The Hidden Ambitions of Elder Lawrence
Due to the lack of understanding about the overall situation, the ordinary members of the Night Blades hiding in Shadow City did not take immediate action. They intended to prioritize gathering more intelligence. Once they collected sufficient information, they would decide on their next steps.
While everyone was busy with their own tasks, the reinforcements sent from the Night Blades headquarters at the edge of Shadow City were quite relaxed. They were originally supposed to act alongside Elder Howard and Elder Kent. However, after the two elders engaged in battle with Irving, they were unable to issue any further commands.
Now, the highest-ranking individual among them was Elder Lawrence, who lay in a coma. However, Lawrence's current condition made it impossible for him to give orders. As a result, the squad leaders among the reinforcements began to argue, just like their counterparts in Shadow City.
