The Northern Gate was the most fortified gate of Bluenight City. It was necessary in order to withstand the attacks of any wilds beasts that strayed from the forests to the north of Bluenight City.
For the same reason, the number of guards on duty at the Northern Gate was always more than those at the other gates.
Well, almost always… with the exception being today.
When Lu Tianzi and Nanlan Qianxue arrived before the Northern Gate, Lu Tianzi was appalled to see that not a single guard was on duty. As if that was not enough, the group that was supposed to have gathered here to go on the Beast Hunt together was nowhere to be seen either.
This meant that his initial plan of using the eyes of the masses as a form of deterrence had failed miserably.
