"Use spatial Defense Artifacts or place-based ones!" a Player called out, reminding the others. Then he shouted, "They're using Players for their amusement! The people of Flower City are way too brazen!"
Players might not interfere with ordinary people's lives and deaths, but no normal person could stomach this kind of killing for entertainment. Besides, they were targets of this cruel game too!
After a brief moment of chaos, some Players attacked the barrier dividing the ground, while others shot straight into the air, intent on killing the long-haired young man and his companions.
But a dense swarm of aircraft greeted them first. The upgraded firearms had incredible speed and stopping power, and some were even equipped with homing micro-missiles. They were nothing like the outdated weapons in the backward Sub-districts, which could barely hurt a High-level Player.

Some tried to launch a stealthy attack, but their opponents were members of core families in Flower City, with plenty of Players protecting them—not to mention Carroll Field. The Defense Barrier generated by his robot alone could block every Player's attack. Meanwhile, fireworks kept flaring and fading, and the head-flowers on the street rose and fell in waves!
