A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1286

Next, they needed to think about the inside information. Not everyone can gain entrance to Ace; one must receive an invitation card issued by Ace and directions to a specific location.

Of course, not everyone who gets an invitation from Ace chooses to go. Some wealthy gamblers, however, are drawn by curiosity. In Robin's words, once you reach a certain level of wealth, life can seem devoid of meaning; only spiritual stimulation can bring joy. Conversely, when one is destitute, only the acquisition of endless riches can provide satisfaction.

As for how members of Siren Organization infiltrated Ace, it's because Ace knew that most members of Siren Organization came from prominent families. They had distributed invitation cards to many such individuals long ago, hoping to randomly locate members of Siren Organization. Mr. Penrod sent in those who had received an invitation card in batches to infiltrate Ace.

People like Bernard, Evan, and Caleb were specifically targeted by Ace. However, they didn't pay much attention to this prior to the mass killings. At that time, even Mr. Penrod and the rest of Siren Organization were unaware of Ace's true purpose. They only knew of an entertainment venue for the wealthy and gamblers called Area Opaca, codenamed Ace. It was only after Ace initiated large-scale killings that they realized Ace's true intent was targeting them.

After accepting an invitation, Ace would secretly observe the invitees at designated locations. Once Ace confirmed an invitee as trustworthy, they would be drugged unknowingly.

Evan shared this information with Robin despite his personal grudge because he, as a member of Siren Organization, was tasked with uncovering Ace's mastermind. After failing, he hoped that Robin, as the vice-president of the Premier Entrepreneurs' League, could do something with the information about Ace.

Finally, there's a difference in treatment between the wealthy gamblers and members of Siren Organization. The fate of wealthy gamblers who lost games would be determined by the door of life and death. However, if members of Siren Organization who infiltrated as gamblers were discovered, they would be taken for experimentation to be turned into Cyborgs. If successful, they would be held captive; if not, they would be dissected.
