Night.
Under the Purple Moon, the Outer City District was engulfed in darkness and silence.
In contrast with the distant Inner City District, this place seemed more like a stagnant pool of water at the moment.
Separated by a wide river, one could vaguely see many tall buildings in the Inner City District in the distance.
Their lights were brilliant, like stars in the night sky.
Reflected on the ink-black river were rivers of stars, the all-night revelry of the wealthy.
If one looked long enough, it seemed as if one could hear the clinking of wine glasses and loud laughter coming from over there.
Chen Lun had been standing behind a tree by the river for quite some time, observing a grand bridge through the railing.
The bridge was manned with checkpoints, five people per team, with several teams on rotation.
"By crossing this bridge, one can enter the Inner City District from the Outer City District..."
Chen Lun thought to himself.
