Outside Balas City, inside a dilapidated church, the base of the altar slowly moved aside, revealing a narrow secret passage.
The first thing to emerge was the muzzle of an MP40 submachine gun, followed by a Prosen dressed in Paratrooper Hunters' military gear who crawled out of the passage and quickly took cover behind the stone benches in the church, adopting a guard stance.
Then a few more Hunters came out and occupied the most defensible positions near the exit.
It was only then that the Prosen Ambassador Schmidt crawled out of the tunnel, patted the dust off his cap solemnly, and put it on his head.
King of Tutka peeked out from behind Schmidt, trying to crawl out of the tunnel, but was stuck due to his overly corpulent body.
He struggled a few times, only to remain immovably wedged in.
