章 158: A sudden mission

Before the sun rose, about 100 elite soldiers were gathering in the castle courtyard to form twenty-five elite squads. Each squad had a total of four members.

Their reason for gathering here, they would be sent to reclaim one of the fallen lands of the empire.

They were gathered in haste, so there were only a hundred of them in total. A very few numbers for the mission.

Everyone was wondering about the sudden summon. None of them received notification beforehand. That's why many of them were asking the person beside them.

"Hey, don't you think it is related to last night's incident?"

"Incident?"

"You don't know?"

"No!"

"Do you mean the act of assassination for the emperor's life?"

Another person interjected.

"Yes, yes!"

"I heard many of the guards lost their life."

"That's horrible."

Nod!

"How about the emperor?"

"I heard he was fine."

"That's a relief."
