Anna's plan was sound. Unfortunately, the moment she established a preliminary resonance, the King of Negativity sensed it. He snorted coldly. "Leader Anna, you really are like a protagonist. Even in a situation like this, you can still resonate with those lowly soldiers?"
Another unexpected complication?
