"Mind if I drive for a bit?"

Considering that the roads ahead might not be as easy to navigate, and more challenging sections would naturally require drivers with more experience, it only made sense to let the most skilled veteran driver take a break and cover a stretch for him.

The straight-line distance from the military camp to the target base was a whopping 613 kilometers. The actual distance would depend on the route taken, and without satellite navigation, no one knew what the wilderness ahead was like. But the estimate was that it would take between 14 to 24 hours to arrive.

No one had the energy to remain in peak condition for such a long period to face all potential emergencies, so adequate rest was vitally important.

Good steel should be used on the blade's edge, and this detail was meticulously planned for beforehand.

The arrangement made sense, and the veteran driver who had led everyone through the Blood Raven Forest nodded and gently pressed on the brake.
