The more Zaos and the others approached, the more they understood the might of those mountains around the Northern base. Not only were they covered in snow, but it was also possible to see several parts covered in a thick layer of ice. It wasn't normal ice since the temperature wasn't that low…
Everyone thought they would have to climb the ice mountains as a final test, but much to their surprise, Elius guided them through a well-hidden cave. It was obvious that it had been man-made since the place was strangely illuminated, and the cave was actually a tunnel that crossed a five kilometers long mountain.
"Sir, is it wise to cross this path with so many people at the same time?" Zaos asked. "I imagine this place was built to prevent enemies from invading, but by letting so many people use this path, I believe we will leave many traces behind and even be seen from quite a distance."
