The car continued to drive.
After negotiating a few more bends, a manor appeared in everyone’s view.
Under the pitch-black night sky, the entire manor was deathly silent, like a behemoth lurking on the ground, waiting for its prey.
The sporadic lights did not make people feel safe.
On the contrary, they made the chill run deeper.
There were teams of armed patrols.
One densely packed guard post after another.
Under the sparse light, they became even more distinct.
He knew nothing of ordinary infiltration,
But he would do it perfectly.
