The Martial Unity

This meant that Rui had underestimated the kind of information that Chairman Deacon was able to gather. Of course, this wasn't a particularly deep fault on his end, but due to a lack of understanding of how deep the intelligence-gathering capabilities of Deacon industries were. He remembered feeling somewhat similarly about Guildmaster Bradt Patrick, who had also exceeded his expectations. Perhaps he needed to reevaluate how he evaluated other normal human beings.

('At least I can be more careful from here on out,') Rui mused to himself. It was a miscalculation, but fortunately, it was the more benign kind rather than the damning kind. However, now that he saw that Chairman Deacon had access to this kind of information, he could more or less figure out how he had come about such information.

('He must have extensively gathered the descriptive accounts of Martial Squires who have been to the twelfth floor, in a combination with his own personal Martial Squires who must have done some basic scouting and surveillance in the dungeon.') Rui figured.

However, he was once more in a predicament where he could not drastically cause any change in patterns without causing Chairman Deacon to grow suspicious about it.

He would need to purposely fall for their traps to at least a minor extent, meaning he would need to abide by their predictions. He would need to ensure that he didn't get an image of him taken, and certainly ensure that he didn't get captured, that would be game over without any shred of a doubt.

Each of them had been instructed to ensure that they did not surveil overlapping areas with their peers in the Shionel Dungeon. In this case, they had to move away and ensure that there were no redundancies in the areas in which they were surveilling. They had to keep their recorders on standby and capture the images of all the Martial Squires who appeared in their vicinity and observe their harvesting. The Voider undoubtedly possessed
