Chapter 61 Book 2 The Talagan Bandits
A few months ago…
The Talagan bandits are a small group of bandits that have been plaguing the border villages in Qinglan Estate. They have been in operation for 5 years now and have been a scourge to the people in these villages.
Though they are bandits they also act as mercenaries from time to time.
At this time, the Talagan Bandits have a new mission.
Liming Village…
The first rays of dawn crept over the horizon, casting a soft, golden glow over the peaceful village of Liming. Farmers prepared for the day, unaware of the looming danger hidden in the surrounding woods. The Talagan bandits, infamous for their brutal raids, crouched in silence like predators ready to pounce. Their black-and-red flag, adorned with a grim symbol of a bear-like skull pierced by an arrow, fluttered faintly in the early morning breeze.
