There were looks of doubt on the faces of the other people when they heard this.
The only reason that they didn’t outright reject this idea was because of who was saying it.
These two were the leaders of the Luminous Knights Team and the Dark Knights Team, as well as powerful summoners in their own right. So even if people had their doubts, they didn’t say them out loud.
It was just that it didn’t seem like these two cared about what the other people said.
Instead, they turned to look at the top contenders and our team.
I still didn’t understand why they looked at our team in this special way…
But there wasn’t time to figure that out.
After looking at us like this for a bit, the leader of the Luminous Knights Team suddenly said, "It seems that these crystals aren’t normal either. They seem like they’re quite hard to destroy since they are imbued with powerful mana. Unless we have special items that have the destruction attribute attached to them, we won’t be able to destroy them that easily."
It finally made sense why he was looking at us…well why he was looking at the top contenders.
The other teams certainly wouldn’t have something like this, but there was a chance that the top contenders would have a magic item imbued with the destruction attribute.
Only no one said anything after hearing what the leader of the Luminous Knights Team said.
It wasn’t just that, they also looked at each other as if they were seeing how the others would react to this.

In the end, it was the Shining Bolts Team that suddenly spoke.
The leader of the Shining Bolts Team said, "We have one, so we can take one of the crystals."
Everyone narrowed their eyes to look at them.
Even though they were the only ones that volunteered, even though they were the only ones that seemed sincere about cooperating, it didn’t seem like anyone actually trusted them.
That was because no one actually trusted them.
Everyone knew that the only reason that they volunteered in the first place was because they had some kind of ulterior motive. So they just looked at them as if they were trying to figure out what their plan was.
Only the Shining Bolts Team just had a calm look on their faces the entire time.
After a long silence, Huang Tuo finally said, "I have one too."
And right after that, Leaf said, "Me too."
The leaders of the Luminous Knights Team and the Dark Knights Team both gave nods of acknowledgement before saying, "We have one as well."
With that, it seemed like everything had been set.
I told them that I had seen a total of five crystals and since all five of them had these destruction attributed magic items, it seemed that this would be enough to take care of all five crystals.
Now it was just…
"We’ll destroy them at the same time and then convene where the portal appears. Whoever reaches the portal first gets to attack the boss first, but they won’t get exclusive rights. They just get whatever time they have with the boss before everyone else arrives."
The leader of the Luminous Knights Team once again set the rules for everyone.
Though it seemed like he was taking charge and taking charge of everyone, something that these top contenders should have hated, they didn’t actually say anything to go against his plan.
That was because his plan was actually reasonable.
In this situation, it was actually the best plan that they could come up with.
Though the leader of the Shining Bolts Team did ask, "How will we find the portal?"
The leader of the Luminous Knights Team calmly replied, "You’ll be able to feel it since it releases a unique mana fluctuation. It won’t be hard to find it the moment that it appears."
Then the leader of the Dark Knights Team added, "It’ll most likely appear right in the center of all five crystals. Though it’s not a guarantee, that’s what I’ve found based on experience."
The eyes of some of the other teams lit up when they heard this before they started sneaking away.
The look in their eyes and the way that they left this place, it was clear that they didn’t have any good intentions. Only it didn’t seem like any of the top contender teams cared at all about these people.
With the way that they ignored them, it was as if they didn’t think that they would be able to pose any threat at all.
It was just the natural arrogance that they had, but it was also a testament of the strength that they had.
As someone that had seen the strength that they possessed, I had to admit that they were qualified to act this way.
A short silence lasted for a bit, but seeing that no one else had any other questions, the leader of the Luminous Knights Team said, "Since that’s the case, we should all find our crystal and prepare to destroy it."
With a wave of his hand, one of his team members went over to the different top contender teams and handed out a piece of paper.
As they looked at him with surprised and confused looks, the leader of the Luminous Knights Team explained, "This is a way of communicating. What you do to this paper will be reflected on the other pieces of paper regardless of how far we are. Once you find your crystal, burn a hole so we know that you’ve found it. Once all five holes appear, destroy the crystal in thirty seconds."
Everyone nodded in agreement to this.
Then before leaving the leader of the Luminous Knights Team looked in our direction to say, "You can have this crystal since you’re the ones that found it in the first place."
Leaf was the one that nodded in agreement, but I could tell that he was looking at me when he said this.
Just why was he so interested in me?
