Chapter 980: Eavesdropping on Storms! Vital Clues!

```

The night was deep.

In the southwest frontier, mountains were continuous.

A mountain rain was approaching, drenching the vast forest swiftly.

Rain fell from the sky, pouring down like a deluge upon the branches, making a loud rustling sound.

A highly concealed cave entrance.

In the darkness, two dark and lean men were whispering softly.

"The smuggler messaged back, there's no way out for now. Patrols have increased, and they've added drone surveillance. The security is much tighter, crossing the Continental Line is too risky!"

"Damn it! Have they gone mad? With these wild mountains, do they really need such a big fuss? When the Sakuragi Hana virus outbreak was at its worst, I didn't see this level of lockdown!"

"How should I know? Fuck, wasn't this route stable before? What's making it so unreliable now? It's freaking weird!"

"Wait for the smuggler's message! Charging through now would be like walking into a trap."
