Conrad took a deep breath as he observed the general surroundings.
"Yeah."
"There are many people," Conrad said, as others listened behind him.
"I cannot see the inside of the manor due to its nen barrier that blocks nen intelligence-gathering abilities."
Reginald then said.
"If we cannot know and gather any information on the inside."
"It is more than likely that they would be preparing for some sort of an ambush."
Conrad nodded.
"You are not wrong."
"If I were them, I would be trying to take us on with grouping."
"This means that each member of this attack team will have to fight two or more enemies at the same time."
"At this point, it is important for Group C to work on helping others to clear the noise.
Everybody nodded again, and then Conrad.
"Okay then."
"Go on!"
"Kill everything!" Conrad said, and then all the people vanished from their existing area, directly running towards the manor.
The battle has officially started.
Group C, Linsey, and Aviao went forward.
Behind them, Group A and Group B, Lina by herself followed closely.
In thirty seconds, the first clash happened.
"Enemies!" shouted out one of the guys wearing white robes that were tight-fitted, making him look like a mummy.
Linsey brandished two twin swords and then slashed left and right.
Just after four exchanges, the man was killed, beheaded.
"Good."
Conrad continued on the sides of the perimeter, not directly attacking the manor.
Instead, he used obelisks to watch everything that was happening outside of the manor.
On the courtyard and other small huts and buildings that spread around the perimeter.
"It was a quasi-member," Conrad thought.
With the shout of the man, many other people showed themselves.
Weirdly, they did not go out of the manor to fight the enemies, but instead, they stood still inside of the manor.
"Oh."
"They don't want to leave because they can tell that I am able to look inside of the manor." Conrad looked at everything from a range and said.
"It seems like, when I have used Obelisk to watch inside, the nen ability of the enemy that blocks me is able to understand that somebody is trying to peek in."
"It is a great ability." Conrad complimented and then focused.
Group A kept on surveying the outside area.
For about five minutes, they have decided to not enter but to keep on making a circle and find any enemies that are outside of the manor and kill them to bring down numbers as much as they can and stop the chance of a scissoring attack.
It would not be great if they were to enter the manor and start fighting the enemy and then new enemies appeared behind their back from outside, closing the escape route and attacking from both sides.
Fighting against two or more enemies is already hard to begin with; if they are attacking from the north and south, it becomes much harder to do.
Conrad stopped for a moment and then directly looked at the big side of the manor.
It was clearly the main hall or something valuable.
"Let's see if they are able to block the orbs." With a mental command, three orbs started flying towards the manor.
They flew up much into the air, overlooking the whole area, including the courtyard and mountainside manor, with ease.
The sensing capability of the Orbs is not the same as the Obelisk; it is much weaker and pretty dim in terms of information gathering.
But it was still something.
Conrad then commanded the orbs to go inside of the Manor.
He manipulated the orbs to get close to a big window and then made one of the orbs, the pulsing orb, hit and break it.
The long vertical glass was broken, and the pulsing orb entered.
A second later, before any information was gathered, he lost contact with the Pulsing Orb, and he felt it.
"Oh."
"Somebody is able to destroy nen-enhanced objects and creatures."
"This is great information."
Conrad directly wrote this new piece of information and sent it to all group members.
If one were able to use a high level of nen, they most likely would have the capability to destroy others' nen objects and creatures, especially if the enemy construct and nen creatures are not that strong.
But orbs were not put in this line at all.
They were filled with conditions and needed physical bodies; if one can destroy it, it means that they specialize in this or are most likely great Nen users that have a Nen ability that is capable of being used in range and is powerful.
"This also means that that window and the room it enters most likely have an official member or even an enforcer."
"A great place to start."
Conrad took a deep breath and then sent the message to Group A.
Adarte, Anisa, Reginald, Gotoh, and Canary took the message; at the same time, they looked at each other and nodded.
The target is "Window A"; it is clear that this room is the first stage.
The group continued and then started moving towards the target.
In ten seconds, they come to the broken window.
"Conrad said that there is a nen user that is able to hit and destroy nen constructs and nen beasts."
"It may mean that this enemy is dangerous and powerful. Most likely an official member; no quasi-members are capable of doing this."
Reginald said.
Adarte spoke.
"I should go."
"I am great at defense, and my ability works in these kinds of situations."
Anisa thought and then nodded.
She wanted to go, but she was not sure if she was able to take on such a powerful attack and have enough power to use her ability.
Not to mention she does not want to get harmed so much from the start for just taking care of one official.
If they do that, they would lose in the end due to the number difference.
