"Army Lord, Beta is dead. As you expected, he was no match for Zhou Heng."
Inside a luxurious castle standing in the sky, in a courtyard surrounded by flowers, Beidal Saqiesi, Army Lord of the Longevity Crusaders' Saqiesi division, brewed tea. After hearing the report from the person beside him, he gazed pensively at the clear sky in the distance. Sending Beta Saqiesi to the Seventh Chapter, "Majestic New Empire: Glory of the Sakas Empire," had not been solely about sending him to his death. He had prepared for two possibilities. First, if Beta Saqiesi managed to kill Zhou Heng, the envelope he had left him would display instructions to help their companions in the Seventh Chapter, "Majestic New Empire: Glory of the Sakas Empire," scheme for the Fated Black River and drag it out of the Seventh Chapter, "Majestic New Empire: Glory of the Sakas Empire," entirely, cutting off ordinary players' chances of obtaining Fated Crystals.

The other possibility was that Beta Saqiesi would be killed by Zhou Heng. As long as Zhou Heng opened the envelope, the recorded information would be transmitted back, giving him firsthand data on Zhou Heng's combat.
