Larson Basin was a peculiar region. Apart from a small plain at its very center, the rest of it was densely forested, making it a natural labyrinth.
This was precisely why Skyblade and his crew had avoided being completely surrounded all this time.
Ethan could already predict Blade Syndicate's plan. Their forces were likely scattered across the basin, stationed like a spiderweb, ready to catch any stray members of Renegade Alliance. If any squad or camp was discovered, reinforcements from all directions would rush to that point, creating the illusion of an inescapable siege.
Skyblade and his men were likely darting through the basin in panic, changing direction constantly to evade capture, falling deeper into Blade Syndicate's trap.
It was a clever tactic, send small teams to stall the Renegades, then overwhelm them as more reinforcements arrived. But the basin was vast, and while Blade Syndicate had over 1,500 players deployed, spreading them out had thinned their defenses.
