Lightning Mercenary Corps and Flame Mercenary Corps first reported to the general, finding an excuse that they had lost contact with the main force due to unfamiliarity with the environment and excessively fierce combat, while also concealing the identity of the Hunter's Guild and Gu Fan's group.
The general did not seem suspicious and allowed both the Lightning and Flame mercenary corps to rest properly because the sound of crossfire outside was fiercer than ever before, indicating that it would be difficult for the night to be calm.
Gu Fan walked around the camp, saw that the perimeter positions were always well-guarded and manned with shooters, and immediately abandoned the idea of leaving directly; leaving would certainly attract attention, which contradicted the need to stay inconspicuous.
Some people pointed at Gu Fan's group, feeling that they did not resemble mercenaries at all and even speculated that Gu Fan was just a rookie.
