The courtyard was filled with these Bain Knights, blocking every exit below and beginning to encircle in this direction, with the knights moving in teams of at least five, and sometimes several teams acting together.
Of course, when the pursuit was too close, Fang Hong would sometimes take advantage of the informational advantage to hide nearby temporarily and let the knights pass first. Thanks to the Clockwork Fairy scouting ahead, he could always anticipate the enemy's moves. The opponents seemed to lack a Combat Artisan — but even if they had one, he wasn't worried.
About halfway through the Central Court, he once again hid in the shadows, observing through the Clockwork Fairy's vision, the Desert Knights wrapped in turbans and cloaked in robes. The opponents' arms bore blue wolf eagle tattoos, with the leader having a scorpion tattoo on his left arm. Each team of knights had at least one such Scorpion Knight.
