Inside the federal black-tech base, many who were watching the live stream through the light screen thought of Sky Shadow as an idiot. Ophelia couldn't believe that Sky Shadow even renounced a high-end mecha to select the Gun Rider. Does he know who he is up against? Mengdie, a being with prestige and power far surpassing his own. What courage drove him to make such a radical decision? Is it merely naive confidence or is it…
In fact, Angelina was also contemplating the same question. In her impression, Sky Shadow was successfully rigorous in his actions. Though sometimes his methods were crazy, it didn't deny that Sky Shadow was a perfectionist. But he even chose the Gun Rider when facing Mengdie. And even more pathetic, at this moment he had openly resorted to an oral attack.
Mu Tou considered himself quite familiar with Sky Shadow and knew that he wasn't the reckless type, but even he couldn't decipher this. "General, why did Sky Shadow…"
"You mean, why did Sky Shadow choose Gun Rider?" the Greedy Wolf clarified.
"Yes, yes..."
All eyes fell on General Greedy Wolf. This was Mu Tou's doubt, but isn't it also the mystery confusing everyone?
Greedy Wolf was about to answer, but his reply was abruptly interrupted by a crisp voice from outside the door. Roland entered at the right moment, saying, "Because Sky Shadow's ambitions are too great."
They all looked at each other, at a complete loss…
As for Roland, this very handsome young man is usually quiet, modest, and never argues with others. Who knew what caused him to unexpectedly learn to interrupt today?
However, when such a person speaks, it often carries weight. At least now, Angelina looked serious, "Roland, you said Sky Shadow's ambitions are too great?"
"Yes. Sky Shadow's original plan was not wrong. Winning over opponents with Gun Rider is an indirect proof of his own abilities. But his wit has been led astray. It's difficult to win this battle," Roland replied.
It seemed as if Sky Shadow originally had a great chance. Angelina was both confused and perplexed, "Didn't he originally have a small chance?"
At this point, Greedy Wolf started listening intriguingly. He wanted to see what made Roland different.
Roland, shaking his head with a smile, explained, "Rumours are not always true. From his performance, I speculate that Mengdie's mecha's power should be less than Sky Shadow's. However, Mengdie's aerial dominance surpasses Sky Shadow's, though not by much."
It was Ophelia who raised her voice, "You must be joking? Haven't you seen Mengdie's close combat prowess? Why do you say it won't exceed Sky Shadow by much?"
"Hehe, not everything we see is necessarily true," Roland added. "Perhaps only when you experience it yourself and find a solution will you realise that the problem is not really a problem."
Greedy Wolf, who had remained silent all this while, now became interested, "Roland, what do you think are Sky Shadow's chances of winning?"
"If he can see through the mystery, I think he should have a 20% chance of winning. If not, there is no chance of victory."
"Oh? And the Revenge Shadow Rider?"
Upon hearing Revenge Shadow Rider, a trace of a smile crossed Roland's handsome face. "Hehe. It's hard to say when it comes to that one, after all it's the magical Shadow Rider. I think he will have some chance of winning, if it's body technique combat, I can say for sure that even if it's Revenge Shadow Rider, the chances of winning will not be too high."
Puzzled by this, even General Greedy Wolf felt somewhat moved, "Roland, why do you say that?"
Roland explained, "I think, in the world, there should be no more than five people who can surpass Mengdie's body technique, general, have you ever heard of the five ancient hidden doors?"
"Ancient hidden doors?"
"Yes, these are reclusive sects that have been passed down from ancient times till today and possess great strength. They are Yanhuang Soul, Nangong Family, Tianyin Sect, Jade Clear Sect, and the Holy Hall – usually, troops are unformed like water, Mengdie always performs modern close combat techniques, her form is GaLe Technique, which is reportedly is a unique Body Technique that is difficult to master from Jade Clear Sect."
Greedy Wolf thought carefully, he did seem to have heard these hidden door rumors a long time ago, but he had considered the rumors as just rumors and did not take it seriously, knowing who Roland is and hearing it from him, Greedy Wolf began to take it seriously, "Roland, can you talk about their origins?"
Roland shook his head… "I don't know much about these mysterious sects. The Yanhuang Soul should be located in the federal area."
"Located in the federal area…?"
"Yes, as far as I know, the Yanhuang Soul located in the Federation belongs to the only neutral formation among the five hidden doors. The Tianyin Sect and Holy Hall tend to be good, while the Nangong Family and Jade Clear Sect lean towards evil. They were divided into good and evil in ancient times. In modern people's eyes, I think they should do whatever it takes to complete their tasks, right?"
"Roland, do these forces also love to use mechas?"
"I haven't heard about it. If they appear, I think it must be because of some task."
Chewing on the word 'task', Greedy Wolf remained silent for a long time, not able to figure out what task the few reclusive sects would be executing in a virtual game.
But then, Roland reminded Greedy Wolf in one sentence, "For instance, Revenge Shadow Rider... hehe, this is just my personal guess, but those hidden doors may not be as simple as they seem."
"Roland, are you sure that Mengdie's technique was the Jade Clear Sect's Wind Step?"
"I am sure."
Upon hearing this, Greedy Wolf didn't continue to ask. He was not clear about the purpose of the Jade Clearing Pavilion, but the words spoken by a special person like Roland were worth noting. What's more, the strength displayed by Mengdie was not as rumored, but her close body technique was very outstanding, which further confirmed Roland's words. What is worth mentioning is Roland's last words about Revenge Shadow Rider. He was not wrong. Not only did Revenge Shadow Rider help the Federation, but he also became a key focus for the world after the Electromagnetic Whip incident.
Soon after, Greedy Wolf invited Roland back to his room. The topic of discussion was not related to battle, he did not speak as a superior or a soldier, but rather as two people just chatting over tea. "Roland, I think you should know Revenge Shadow Rider quite well."
"Somewhat," Roland seemed very casual.
"Have you ever thought about his identity?"
"Of course I have thought about it."
"Then who do you think he is?"
"Hehe, doesn't the general already have an answer in mind? Why ask when you know the answer?"
Indeed, Greedy Wolf already had an answer in his heart, but he was always hesitating to confirm it, "But we can't find any on-site evidence."
"Well, that's why it's the magical Revenge Shadow Rider."
Greedy Wolf was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter… This Roland indeed is interesting.
