Chapter 232
Meanwhile, at the exact same moment—
At the hospital, Momo and Taro were once again locked in a tense standoff, something that hadn’t happened in a while.
“We need to keep all the doctors and nurses concentrated at the central point during the Wide-Area Faction War,” Momo insisted.
“Director, if we do that, we’ll be slow to respond to medical needs in the East and West. For now, it’s better to keep things split between those two areas,” Taro countered.
The reason for their argument was the upcoming Wide-Area Faction Wars scheduled for Day 3—the midpoint of Week 2—and the final Day 6.
Unlike the standard faction battles, which involved attacking or defending one zone from each side, the Wide-Area Faction War was different.
During this limited-time event, any and all zones captured during the match would permanently belong to the side that took them.
Essentially, it was a giant timed land-grab contest.
And the structure of it made it wildly different from normal faction battles.
It allowed for deep infiltration into enemy territory—into zones that couldn’t normally be defended—causing total chaos in the rearguard.
In this event, there was a specific debuff: any equipment below S-tier would be destroyed upon incapacitation.
Even with that risk, capturing a zone deep inside enemy lines meant it could later serve as a launch point for an assault on their stronghold in the next battle.
