They walked and took breaks along the way until they arrived at the lake by evening.
However, when they reached the lake, others had already been there.
Those at the lake had clearly spotted them first, and although they maintained their original postures of standing or sitting, their hands were already resting on the holsters at their waists.
Liu Hang and the members of the mercenary team were also startled and became vigilant.
Qu Tong stood at the back of the group, and she recognized the attire of the five people by the lake at a glance, the black combat uniforms of the soldiers from the six major legions.
Liu Hang and the others recognized them too and laid down their weapons, calling out, "Are you soldiers from the border area? We are students from the First Military Academy here on a mission, accompanied by these mercenaries."
"The Skywolf Legion is here on a task."
