However when he sensed 5 more people surrounding him , with every single One of them being in a comparable level range like himself , he understood that these people were here for the same reason he was.
As the only people who could near level 190's at this stage of the game could only be the top rankers.
Although shadow was a mysterious and unsociable person , as his face was new to these other rankers, however to him the other 5 players , except the ranker who tapped on his shoulder were all familiar.

Rank 2 - Roygar the pyscho , there guild leader of the only guild inside the darkfaction that had gotten the lawless dark faction players beg for some civil security as his guild called ' Black bandits ' , was the most infamous open crime organization in the dark territory.
Looting , pillaging , murder , were the warmup routine of the members from his guild , as erratic and psycho was the only words that could be said to describe this one of a kind guild leader of that guild.
Infamous to have bitten the nose off a dungeon boss , he was seen grotesquely chewing on it as he stabbed his sword in the hole created by him biting off the monsters nose.
A dark knight by profession he was at level 193 at the moment , only behind Shadow by 3 levels.
Adding shadow into the mix , there were 6 of the top 10 rankers gathered in one place and a mystery man that shadow did not know about , however at level 189 was sure to be a ranker as well.
While shadow did not know the reason why these people were together and here , he wanted to know how the man sneaked up on him without him ever finding out , as he said " Shadow , rank1 , you are?".
Shadow extended his hand towards the man who startled him , as the man said " Lorenzo , rank 6 ". As he shook his hand with a smile .
Rank -6 , Lorenzo Gaffa , dark ninja , The stealthiest assassin with his own mercenary organization of talented assasins highly reputed to finish Any mission with a 100% success rate .
A master of one hit kills , he was known as the one punch man of the dark world . However it was rumored that he used a special mask that altered his appearance every single day , making it impossible to ever know what his true face was.
Lorenzo said " It's a pleasure to meet the famous shadow , as you can see i am gathering the 10 of us to complete this mission , as i think that the chances of us succeeding in the mission and subsequently getting out of the light faction territory is incrementally higher If we all work together to take this foe down .
While the promised rewards are astronomical , splitting the job will actually be more beneficial to us in my opinion as even when split 10 ways , the reward offered is significant
Soo are you in or are you out?".
Shadow was surprised by this invitation as a million questions popped in his mind , with some of them being
1) why is the 6th guy acting like the leader here? And why is everyone else Okay with it?
2) Can i really trust what he is saying?
3)How did you all find me?
However he voiced none of those questions as he said " Alright I'm in ".
Having been scouting Rudra for a while now , shadow knew that his chances to win against someone like Rudra one on one were less than 5% .
Hence not having enough confidence to complete the mission alone he decided to band up with the others . As although he was on alert and wary of the others , since 6 unrelated people were in this scheme then the Lorenzo guy must have some merit .
Hence the alliance of 6 expanded to 7 , as the number one ranker joined the cause of taking down Rudra as a team.
While he was busy fighting in leisure taking down a large city with his guild and the Russian mafia , an unknown threat got bigger and bigger for him to face .
While Lorenzo was off to rope in the other 3 members into the alliance . The others shared information about the mission , and what they felt about approaching the target.
Shadow being the quite one , just observed as he could feel the overbearing attitude of everyone around him. As the top rankers all collaborated to take down one single man . However for some reason it got his blood pumping as he eagerly looked forward to it!
