Chapter 246: The Risk-Taking Irving



With a very anxious tone, Benjamin asked the members of the Angel Guild, "Where are Irving and Aron right now? I need to find them immediately!"

"Who are you? I don\'t know you, so I can\'t tell you Mr. Irving\'s or Captain Aron\'s whereabouts," one of the Angel Guild members replied, remaining quite cautious. He merely sized up Benjamin without revealing the location of Irving and Aron.

Benjamin felt a bit more anxious. "I\'m here to help them. Are you a new member of the Angel Guild? Don\'t you recognize me? I\'m the manager of the security department at Ocean Group! I\'m also the president of the Ocean Group Guild!"

Although Benjamin\'s expression remained unchanged, his tone clearly conveyed his urgency.

Despite Benjamin\'s declaration, the Angel Guild member still did not answer his question.

"I can\'t verify your true identity. However, there\'s no need for you to panic; I will take you to our elder of the Angel Guild right away."

Under the guidance of the Angel Guild member, Benjamin quickly found Anna.

Upon seeing Benjamin, Anna\'s expression changed significantly. Although Irving and Aron had not shared much information with Anna, she immediately sensed that something was off regarding their situation after meeting Benjamin.

"Did Irving send you here?" Anna asked Benjamin directly.

Benjamin nodded. "I need to find Irving and Aron right now! You must know where they are, right?"

In response to Benjamin\'s inquiry, Anna replied straightforwardly, "I can quickly locate Aron, but I have one condition: I must accompany you!"

Anna\'s response made Benjamin hesitate slightly. When he received Irving\'s plea for help, Irving had specifically requested that Benjamin come alone. He was concerned that having Anna join him might disrupt Irving\'s plans.

While Benjamin was still pondering, Anna directly called Aron. "Benjamin is here with me, and I want to head to where you are together. What do you think?"

Anna knew that Aron and Irving were in the same location, so if Aron agreed to her idea, it would also mean that Irving was on board as well.

On the other end of the phone, Aron immediately gave a positive response.

"You can come with Benjamin! After all, having an extra person means more strength! Plus, I believe your abilities are sufficient to handle the threat from the Night Blades!"

After receiving Aron\'s response, Anna smiled at Benjamin. "Let\'s get going quickly! We can\'t waste any more time!"

Thus, Anna and Benjamin made their way to where Aron and Irving were situated around the castle.

At that moment, Aron and Irving were observing a trap set by the Night Blades. Although the trap was not particularly complex, it contained powerful dark forces.

Irving and his team did not need to worry about the threat posed by these dark forces, but others who were not as strong would certainly fall victim to them.

"How\'s it going? Have you managed to neutralize some of the Night Blades\' threats?" Benjamin hurriedly asked the two upon seeing them.

Irving remained silent, while Aron shook his head gravely.

"What\'s wrong? This trap doesn\'t seem very complicated. Do you really need to observe it for so long?" Anna asked, a bit puzzled.

In Anna\'s view, the trap in front of Aron and Irving should have been easy to clear. They didn\'t need to spend so much time studying it. The most important thing right now was to find the members of the Night Blades. As long as they could eliminate the Night Blades, the crisis they faced would be resolved.

Upon hearing Anna\'s words, Irving turned his head, a wry smile on his face. "A trap may indeed be easy to clear, but there are a lot of similar traps around the castle. And these similar traps have some structural differences.

This has made it impossible for us to clear them quickly. Moreover, these traps are located along the transportation routes for materials, which means our speed in building defense infrastructure around the castle has been severely impacted."

Irving\'s explanation made Anna and Benjamin finally understand why he was so worried.

"What do you think we should do? We can\'t clear one trap at a time, can we? I assume you must have a plan in mind; otherwise, you wouldn\'t have called me over," Benjamin asked Irving in a very calm tone.

Irving nodded. "I do have a plan in mind. However, it carries a bit of risk. So I want to proceed only after I have your agreement."

After Irving said this, Anna, Aron, and Benjamin immediately responded.

"As members of the Angel Guild, Aron and I won\'t oppose it. Our duty as the Angel Guild is to fight against the Night Blades. Even if we encounter danger, we will not back down," Anna stated firmly, with Aron nodding heavily in agreement.

Benjamin then chimed in, "We have already faced many dangers before, so dangerous situations have become commonplace for us. Moreover, the safety of the castle is crucial for all of us, so I will definitely give it my all."

With the three of them giving their affirmative responses, Irving proceeded to outline his plan.

"My plan is actually quite straightforward. I will willingly step into a more complex trap, and the members of the Night Blades will surely take that opportunity to launch an attack on me. All you need to do is to attack the Night Blades members as soon as you spot them.

If you think that attacking the Night Blades directly might not yield much information, then you can just follow them in secret. I can also pretend to be under their control."

Irving\'s plan indeed posed significant risks, most of which would fall squarely on him. After hearing this, Benjamin, Aron, and Anna all felt that Irving should not put himself in such a dangerous position.

"If your intention is simply to step into the trap and pretend to be caught, then the risks might not be too severe. However, if you actually get captured by the Night Blades, I believe they will do everything in their power to kill you quickly. At that point, the risks would be far too great.

I think we should launch an attack on the Night Blades the moment they appear. As long as we can eliminate the Night Blades members, they won\'t be able to stop us from constructing the defense infrastructure," Benjamin calmly analyzed the risks that Irving might encounter in his plan. He felt the risks were excessively high and hoped Irving would consider a safer strategy.

Although Anna and Aron did not speak up, they both agreed with Benjamin\'s perspective.

After hearing Benjamin\'s words, Irving replied with a hint of exasperation in his tone. "I know you all mean well. But the situation is very urgent. I need to take some risks to ensure our plans succeed.

And I\'m willing to take those risks. Don\'t forget, our previous operations were successful because I dared to put myself in danger! Plus, I have great confidence in my abilities! Even if I were to be captured by the Night Blades, I believe I could break free at a critical moment."

After firmly stating his position, Irving locked eyes with the three of them. "You need to give me an answer right away because I\'m about to put my plan into action."

Irving did not intend to give the others more time to think, as he felt their window of opportunity was closing fast.

Aron and Anna hesitated slightly. They wanted to support Irving\'s idea, but felt they shouldn\'t be the first to voice their agreement. After all, there had been some conflicts between the Angel Guild and Irving before, and they worried that endorsing Irving\'s dangerous plan might lead him to harbor negative thoughts.

In the midst of Aron and Anna\'s silence, Benjamin stepped forward. "Since you\'ve made your decision, I will definitely support you!"

Benjamin had great trust in Irving. He believed that Irving\'s plans had rarely gone awry. After receiving Benjamin\'s confirmation, Irving turned his gaze to Aron and Anna.

Now that Benjamin had voiced his support, Aron and Anna felt they could no longer remain silent.

"We also agree with your plan!"

With the affirmation from all three, a smile spread across Irving\'s face. "Let\'s get started immediately! I believe our plan is foolproof! Anna will accompany me, while Aron and Benjamin will move around the perimeter!"

Under Irving\'s command, the four of them sprang into action. The reason Irving wanted to work with Anna was to prevent the Night Blades from growing suspicious of what was about to happen. If Irving teamed up with Benjamin or Aron, they could provide substantial help if he ran into danger.

Since Anna\'s strength was not on par with Benjamin and Aron, she wouldn\'t be able to assist Irving in escaping a dangerous situation.

As Irving and the others took action, members of the Night Blades were also preparing for their next move. Elders Howard and Kent had devised a particularly nefarious plan. They intended to place James and Nick into a trap. This way, if Irving wanted to rescue them, he would have to risk stepping into the trap himself.
