"This is how I fight." Hana raised the bag that contained multiple drones. The moment she activated it, all these drones started soaring into the air and moving in all kinds of formation.
The smaller drones had a few holes in them, while the bigger drones were much easier to spot but also had a bigger gun.
"So, by combining the drones and using them in a certain formation, you’re able to surround them." Clovis frowned. This was the first time he had seen such a fighting style.
It was definitely deadly. Even he didn’t know how to defeat this formation. With the number of drones, it was clear that he had to move as quickly as possible, avoiding all the bullets. But the moment his movement was interrupted, the drones would get into the position and surround him.
The other way would be to destroy the drones with his short sword or pistol. But the drones had an advanced AI that could read attack patterns.
Without enough speed, he would have a hard time destroying them.
"So, we can do this…" Melody tried typing a few things, testing the drones herself. The drones began to move in an unpredictable way.
"Do you want to try it on someone? Of course, no shoot." Hana smirked. Considering Melody was an operator, she should be exceptional in this field. She wanted to see whether she was good or not with the drones she used for the first time.
"Ehm…" Melody looked hesitant because she didn’t have the money to replace the drones if they crashed into each other.
"It’s fine. The information alone makes me not mind even if you destroy all these drones." Hana chuckled.
"Why don’t you try it?" Clovis nodded. Since the owner had said so, it would be a waste if they didn’t take the opportunity.
"Clovis. Do you mind?" Melody nodded. Clovis had the best reaction speed, so he would be the hardest to trick.
"Sure." Clovis waved his fingers. "I will stand here and see if I can destroy all the drones or not."
After watching how Hana operated the drones, Melody began to move the drones.
Clovis lowered his hands as though he were gripping his long sword and pistol.
Once Melody started to get used to the drones’ movements, she raised three of her fingers. "I will try it. Three… two… one…"
The drones sped up and moved toward Clovis. The latter looked like he was clenching his fists, ready to slash the drones.
But right before it reached Clovis’s attack range, the drones spread out.
In an instant, Clovis imagined himself raising his left hand and shooting one of the drones.
To his surprise, Melody changed the patterns of the drones, avoiding Clovis before he shot. After that, several of them moved closer, entering his range.
Clovis had to choose which one he would strike first, but that was when the rest of the drones released the laser as though they were ready to kill him.
Clovis leaped to the side and slashed one of the drones, but that was actually a trap. Melody actually aimed the laser toward his eyes, which caused his vision to be blurry for a split second.
After Clovis cut down one of the drones, he suddenly stopped when he noticed he had been surrounded. There were at least four drones who had been waiting for him in this spot as though they knew Clovis would be here.
"!!!" Clovis raised his eyebrows before asking, "Did you intentionally lower the speed of the drones?"
Kanaria and Jay were confused because they didn’t know what Clovis was talking about.
However, Melody and Hana were actually able to imagine the clash between Clovis and the drones. It was magnificent.

Melody placed a trap for Clovis and checkmated him the moment he took the bait.
Melody nodded her head. "Yes. The biggest advantage of these drones is their number. By manipulating each drone’s speed, you can create the illusion that you are one step ahead of the drones, while in reality, you’ve been trapped."
Hana rubbed her cheek multiple times as her gaze lost its focus as though she had fallen into deep thought.
As soon as she finished her thought, she couldn’t help but say, "That’s an interesting way to play with the drones."
"Well, it’s only possible because the AI is very advanced. If I can create several models, it can create different combinations of attack patterns."
"My engineers said the same thing." Hana nodded in agreement. "It seems that I’ve underestimated you."
"Well, I can only do this because of my good senses."
Clovis clicked his tongue. After hearing those words, Clovis couldn’t help but look down. The ground was uneven, so he subconsciously lowered his speed as well. This made the drones look much faster.
"Well, my affinity is not the Brain, so I don’t have those good senses." Hana shook her head helplessly. "But your control over the drones is interesting, especially with the fact that this is your first time operating them. If he disbands the group, you can work under me."
Melody smiled. Even though she was happy that Hana valued her that highly, she had made her decision to remain in the Libation Fiesta. "As an operator, I’m thankful for your assessment, but I’ll have to reject it."
Hana shrugged. "Do you want to buy the drones? I’m sure that you can put it to good use."
"As much as I would like to have them, I don’t think I have the money to buy one. In addition, I don’t think this city has the ability to restock the parts the drones use." Melody shook her head.
"The first problem is easy. I can just use the money from future sales to buy the drones. Then again, they are indeed expensive. The smaller ones cost about two million dollars. As for the second one… yeah, you can probably visit my city after this. You’re going to leave the city in a few months, right?" Hana turned to Clovis.
"Come to my city, okay?"
"We’ll see." Clovis shrugged. Now that they had reached an agreement, Hana began to use all opportunities to invite them.
