With everything prepared, the night had almost plunged into complete darkness. To better conceal his camouflage, Su Chaoyang donned a plant-colored Ghillie suit over his combat gear, serving both as a perfect disguise and a raincoat.
Taking advantage of the darkness, he stealthily infiltrated the woods along the Xiaolong River. Following the intelligence provided by a "prisoner", Su Chaoyang quietly approached a courtyard that displayed distinct local architectural style atop a hill.
As the rain began to ease and the night descended into a murky haze, Su Chaoyang shrugged off his cumbersome Ghillie suit, deftly sneaked into a concealed corner, and silently knocked out the nearest guard unnoticed.
Unfolding the guard's palm, he saw a Python Totem tattooed on his wrist, confirming he had come to the right place.
