The caravan had just entered the final stretch of Blackridge Pass when Hayden's Ocularis Lens picked up movement along the rocky cliffs above.
His enhanced vision zoomed in immediately, revealing figures in mismatched armor…
"Hmm?" Hayden felt something off as he noticed that their positions or formations were too tight for common thugs.
Still, he had to inform Silas.
"Bandits…" Hayden said as his hand gripped his sword tightly.
Although Silas hadn't seen the bandits yet, he knew that Hayden wouldn't say this just to joke around… He immediately ordered the caravan to stop and called the mercenaries forward, except for those guarding the injured.
Soon, Farah started walking beside the lead wagon and looked at the bandits…
"Look at their stance—they're holding formation…" Hayden said to Farah and the latter nodded. It was as if she knew about these bandits who were seemingly too disciplined to be some random warriors or thugs.
