Snowy night, two kilometers north of Xia City, at the mountain wall.
A team of about twenty people, keeping their heads down against the severe cold, continuously climbing up the slope.
"Commander, why did we come here instead of going on a hunting expedition?"
Chen Shang, holding a Barrier Blade and carrying a Strong Bow, looked at his father, Chen Ying, the leader, full of puzzlement in his eyes as he asked.
Although Chen Ying was his father, he was also the captain of the Iron Eagle Squad. When going out with the Hunting Team, he still had to be addressed as the captain—this was the rule.
"Let's stop for a moment, we're almost at the top of the slope, take a rest!"
Chen Ying turned around, looked at the team members who were full of confusion like Chen Shang, and halted the team, then after a moment of silence, he slowly spoke up:
"You all should be aware of the Rodent Tide event before the First Year, right?"
