Late night.
The bright moonlight is obscured by dark clouds.
The whole world is plunged into darkness.
Border of Viscount Bai Lu, Jian Mountain Village.
This is not a military stronghold, nor are there any mineral resources.
Yet at this moment, it is guarded by over a hundred soldiers.
They were once under Viscount Bai Lu, but have now surrendered to Luo De, following his orders to station here.
For just a week ago, an underground passage was discovered beneath the ruins of a chapel at the edge of this village.
Thus, Jian Mountain Village transformed from an insignificant remote place into a restricted area, with two five-man patrol teams even outside the village.
At the foot of a hill not far from Jian Mountain Village, eight figures appeared silently like specters.
They wore exquisite armor, cloaked in black robes, their eyes fixed intently on the flickering lights of the village.
"This is our only chance; there can be no mistakes."
