"A new guild?"
"A new guild wants to join the Clearers?"
"Is that for real?"
When Rozen's declaration spread throughout the Raid Strategy Meeting and reached everyone's ears, every top-tier player in the room was surprised and began to discuss Rozen's declaration among themselves.
Even Kirito, Aikir, and Klein were no exception.
"Someone wants to join at this time?"
"And it's a new guild?"
"Is there no problem?"
Kirito, Aikir, and Klein spoke one after another.
Of course, Zahad didn't miss this opportunity.
"With all due respect, Guild Leader Rozen." Zahad frowned and said: "Although the Clearers lost a lot of combat power due to the disintegration of Aincrad Liberation Squad, not everyone can join the Clearers, right?"
The meaning behind Zahad's words was very obvious.
"If we let a guild that doesn't meet the standard join us just because we don't have enough combat power, it will only drag us down."
Zahad didn't hesitate to say such a thing. He didn't even realize that he just proposed to recruit Players from the lower levels as combat power.
Of course, the two shouldn't be confused.
Zahad's idea of recruiting Players from the lower levels as combat power was just to make up for the number of Players. It didn't mean that he wanted those Players to join the Clearers.
Recruiting Players for a while and joining them for a long time were two different things.
At least, that was what Zahad thought.
In response, Rozen just shrugged.
"I think strength is one thing, but the most important thing is character. If you're strong enough, but you always do things that give us a headache, even if you're still in the Clearers, you should find a chance to get rid of them in the future. Don't you think so?"
Rozen looked at Zahad and said that with a smile.
"What did you say …!?"
Rozen's indirect scolding finally angered Zahad, and he immediately wanted to step forward.
But this time, Rozen didn't let Zahad make a move.
"Let's figure out where we stand."
The smile on Rozen's face immediately vanished, and he cast a sharp gaze at Zahad.
"Although I don't want Red Wings to become a radical guild that attacks Players, I'm sure Divine Dragon Alliance has plenty of Orange Players. Do you really want me to reorganize it?"
The words that were filled with aggression were like sharp needles that pierced through Zahad's ankle, stopping him in his tracks.
Zahad's face contorted, but he couldn't say a word.
After all, Rozen's Red Wings was the strongest guild in the game.
If the other party really didn't care about anything, then Divine Dragon Alliance would definitely be in big trouble.
"Do you understand?" Rozen curled his lips and said, "If you understand, then shut up."
Zahad clenched his fists tightly. He could feel the piercing gazes of the players around him, and his heart was filled with rage.
For an ambitious person like Zahad, being scolded by Rozen in public was absolutely uncomfortable.
However, Zahad really didn't dare to do anything to Rozen. Otherwise, the Clearers would lose a leader who could maintain a perfect record, and the Clearers would definitely target Divine Dragon Alliance.
Zahad dared to provoke Red Wings, but he didn't dare to provoke the Clearers.
"I understand …" Zahad could only suppress his anger and said coldly, "I hope Guild Leader Rozen won't make the wrong decision."
After saying that, Zahad retreated, and together with the Divine Dragon Alliance's players, he was reduced to a bystander with an ugly expression.
Rozen retracted his gaze and looked at everyone again.
"I only learned about this yesterday. Of course, I won't just let anyone join us. Let Argo explain the details."
Rozen's words attracted everyone's attention to Argo.
Argo coughed in front of everyone, and then said.
"This is the information I brought to Guild Leader Rozen. At the same time, the guild that I'm about to join asked me to ask Guild Leader Rozen's opinion on joining, and in the end, I got Guild Leader Rozen's approval."
In public, Argo didn't dare to refer to Rozen as Rozen, and it was rare for him to speak in a serious manner.
"The guild that requested to join is a newly established guild with only seventeen members, but each member's level is higher than the Clearers' average Level 40. They're also very strong, and their equipment won't lose to Top Players. According to my investigation, this guild has the ability to join the Clearers. Although it's not as strong as Red Wings, and the number of members is less than Divine Dragon Alliance, it's not any weaker than Fuurinkazan."
At this point, Argo spoke up.
"This is especially true for the guild leader and vice-leader. They're definitely stronger than most of the Clearers. Although this is only my personal opinion, I think that they should be among the top five Clearers. Maybe even the top three Clearers wouldn't be a problem."
Top three!
Argo's words caused the Clearers to suck in a breath of cold air.
"That's really …"
"Really?"
Kirito, Aikir, and Klein also looked at each other.
"Top three?"
Rozen raised an eyebrow.
Argo didn't tell him about this yesterday.
Rather, Argo only told him about the guild's ability, and Rozen didn't ask for detailed information about each and every member of that guild.
Therefore, Rozen didn't expect Argo to have such a high evaluation of that guild.
Only Zahad had a look of complete disbelief as he spoke.
"Then I really want to know what the name of that guild is."
That was also the question on everyone's mind, right?
Argo didn't keep him in suspense and answered directly.
"Knights of the Blood."
Argo said so.
"That guild is called Knights of the Blood."
After saying that, Argo turned around and looked at the entrance of the venue.
"Look, they're coming."
His words made all the players in the area turn their gazes to the front.
In the next second, everyone saw it.
"Pa — Pa — Pa — Pa —"
It was the rhythmic sound of footsteps.
At the entrance of the venue, a group of players marched in an orderly fashion towards them.
A group of players dressed in alternating red and white Knight uniforms and equipment of the same color. The weapons in their hands also shone with dazzling arcs of light, radiating an extraordinary aura.
There were only a dozen or so players, but they gave off the feeling of a magnificent army, filling the air with a solemn atmosphere.
Looking at this group of players, the Clearers couldn't help but hold their breath in shock.
The reason why he was shocked was not just because of the other party's astonishing aura.
There was another reason.
That was the appearance of the leader of this group of players.
"This …"
Aikir was dumbfounded.
"… No way, right?"
Klein was dumbfounded.
"Huh?"
Kirito was dumbfounded.
"Wh … what …!?"
Zahad was shocked.
Even Rozen was stunned at this moment.
"A woman?"
Yes.
The person in the lead was a female player.
