Chapter 55: Scaling the Wall

"All you need to do is follow my orders. In a month, we'll set off! Su Muli, bring more hands," Yi Si commanded.

The capital of Liuli Country featured beautiful architectural styles; the cityscape was as bustling with traffic as any major city.

The road to the Military Department was a narrow concrete one.

The houses they lived in were also made of simple materials, temporary modular homes.

Around the base were areas even deeper in the mountains and forests than those around the Z department.
