"Call for backup!" Chinedu barked at the teammate who'd raised the alarm. "Now! Get Mariana's squad here, get the Association, get anyone!"
Why did he not call the veterans for help?
Because that would be breaking the rules of the competition. If the guild brought its strongest members to carry the rookie track, then the best strategy would be to let your veterans fight the battles for the rookies and let them do the finishing blow, making the guild easily win the rookie track.
That's why Chinedu called for either Mariana or the Association, not Magnus and the New Dawn leadership.
The man with the comms artifact was already screaming into his gadget.
