The four Players from Central Base arrived and, dispensing with pleasantries, immediately entered mission mode.
To Seraphina Sullivan’s surprise, the leader of this support team was Gordon Chandler—the one whose Talent was [Camera] and who looked to have no combat ability whatsoever.
"Captain Brooks! If everyone is ready, let’s move out."
Gordon Chandler’s tone was crisp, reflecting his swift and decisive manner.
From the intel provided by Vorlag City’s leadership, he already understood the Monster Rabbit’s terrifying destructive power.
He knew time was of the essence—every minute of delay could introduce more uncertainties.
He was worried that this unknown type of monster might have the ability to spread.
If it were allowed to spread throughout Arkadia, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Justin Brooks understood the gravity of the situation and wasted no time.
"Alright! All units, proceed according to the plan. Move out!"
The massive contingent began to move, with the Players boarding armored transport vehicles specially modified to withstand the extreme cold and a certain degree of impact.
The vehicles were spacious inside, but the atmosphere remained heavy.
Heath Summers’s appearance caused quite a stir among the Players, and whispers echoed through the cabin.
"Look! It’s really Heath Summers! I can’t believe Central Base even sent her!"
"With her here, maybe she can even do something about this god-awful weather?"
"You’re dreaming. She’s human, not a God! I heard changing the weather on a large scale is incredibly draining, and besides, the root cause of this extreme cold disaster might not even be a normal meteorological problem."
"Fair point. Still, having her here makes me feel a lot safer."
Dexter Luther also remarked in a low voice to his teammate, "I never expected the ’Child of Weather’ herself to come to the front lines. I just wonder... how strong are the other three Players?"
Dexter Luther’s gaze lingered for a few extra seconds on Brandon Barton, who was cradling a long saber with his eyes closed in meditation.
Seraphina Sullivan’s gaze also fell upon Brandon Barton.
He sat alone in a corner, cradling an ancient-looking long saber. His eyes were partially closed, his breathing deep and steady, as if he were completely cut off from the surrounding clamor.
His entire being was like a piece of tempered cold iron, conserving every ounce of his Power for the battle to come.
Meanwhile, Victor Sharp seemed extremely anxious. He deliberately stayed far away from Heath Summers, practically pressing himself against the wall of the vehicle as he squeezed in beside the two male leaders, Justin Brooks and Gordon Chandler. His eyes darted about evasively; clearly, his [Gynophobia] was kicking in.
In stark contrast to the quiet focus and nervous tension of the two men was Heath Summers, the youngest member of the team.
After boarding, she looked left and right with wide-eyed curiosity.
She gave the other Players in the vehicle an undisguised, probing look, paying special attention to the other women.
After all, Heath Summers was only a girl of junior high school age.
She possessed an incredibly powerful Talent, but after becoming a Player, she had been kept under the state’s strict protection. This experience left her with a sense of novelty and curiosity about the "outside" world and its people.
Female Players were rare to begin with, and in the entire armored vehicle, there were only four: Heath Summers, Seraphina Sullivan, Crystal Lynn, and the more recent addition, Chloe Lewis.
Soon, Heath Summers’s bright eyes found and locked onto the trio of Seraphina Sullivan, Crystal Lynn, and Chloe Lewis sitting on the other side of the cabin.
She blinked, apparently taking a keen interest in this small, all-female group.
The vehicle rumbled and jolted forward on a road buried under a thick layer of snow.
"Once we’ve linked up, we can use their latest intel to immediately initiate our attack deployment."
