After a flurry of activity, the broke-down locomotive was successfully connected to Section Two’s vehicle.

Noland Lee officially set off on the road to the Narrow Pass.

He released the handbrake and switched to neutral so that the locomotive under him was being towed by Section Two’s locomotive, while scanning the approaching imperial Narrow Pass with a squint.

It was a military fortress built into the mountainside.

The elevation of the military fortress was about 300 meters.

Its main structure was inside the mountain, predominantly consisting of tunnels and underground bunkers that never saw daylight.

Parts of the fortress protruded out of the mountain body, hanging like a bas-relief on the smooth cliff.

To enter the fortress trom the ground level, one must take the elevator.

With the backing of someone from Division Intelligence Unit Two, the guards at the narrow pass barely inspected Noland Lee and let the entire convoy pass.

Noland Lee and his steam locomotive beneath him steadily ascended along with the elevator platform.

Watching the receding ground beneath his feet, Noland Lee sighed with relief.

When the elevator platform ascended to its highest position, it docked on the ground floor of the military fortress.

Noland Lee’s steam locomotive was pulled off the elevator platform by Section

r

Two and parked in a nearby shed.

“Thank you once again, Chief Officer,”

Noland Lee saluted and watched the warm-hearted Military Intelligence Section Two investigator leave.

He lifted Ker from the co-pilot’s seat, draped him over his shoulder, and dragged him towards the vehicle escorting criminal soldiers.

The guards of the convoy were counting the criminal soldiers in the vehicle along with the soldiers at the narrow pass.

The captain of the convoy saw Noland Lee, waving his hand and shouting:

“Isa! Ker! You’re here.’

“Captain, you guys are just too unkind! You left me and Ker on the road. If we hadn’t met a kind-hearted investigator from Military Intelligence Section Two, we might still be eating dust on the road…”

Noland Lee mimicked Isa’s tone and grumbled incessantly.

While speaking, he carefully observed the captain standing in front of him.

Seeing that he didn’t realize that he was an imposter, Noland Lee’s tension eased considerably.

“It was all for completing the delivery task on time, Isa. Now enough of the complaints. Has Ker woken up?…Still unconscious, huh? Well then, he’ll have to be taken to the medical department.”

The captain spoke to a soldier at the narrow pass for a moment.

The soldier called over two team members to carry the unconscious Ker into the medical department.

Without the burden of Ker, Noland felt much lighter.

“Isa, don’t stand idle. Help the guards at the narrow pass escort the criminal soldiers into the prison cell.”

The captain handed a remote control to Noland Lee, urging him:

“Hurry up, don’t make a mistake. These criminal soldiers are urgently needed by the garrison at the narrow pass, you mustn’t let them escape along the way.”

Noland Lee looked at the remote control in his hand and blinked.

What a turn of fortune.

He also had a day when he could control an electric shock collar with a remote control…

Noland Lee recalled Isa’s habit of escorting criminal soldiers. He took out the metal stick around his waist, banging on the iron cage while shouting:

“Losers, listen up. We’re here at your graveyard. Now, I’m going to take you to the shithole. Anyone who dares make trouble, I’ll shock you until bitter water comes out.”

A few criminal soldiers glared at him fiercely.

Noland Lee didn’t say a word more, directly pressing the remote control against them.

Zizzz.

The current surged.

Those criminal soldiers fell to the ground, convulsing and begging for mercy.

The other criminal soldiers also became much honest.

Halfway, a courier soldier rushed over and spoke to the soldiers in the team:

“Guys, here are the latest instructions from above, we are to cooperate with

Division Intelligence Unit Two in arresting a Death Notice Spy…”

There was a slight stir in Noland Lee’s heart as he listened in.

Could it be that the Section Two convoy he encountered earlier was here to capture the Death Notice Spy?

The courier soldier continued to speak:

“According to orders from above, Bunkers No.l to No.15 are under wartime alert and cannot be entered by anyone other than the bunker guards. Bunker No.16 is as usual. If you are transporting criminal soldiers to the front lines, go through Bunker No.16, the other bunkers are not accessible.”

“Alright, we got it, thanks mate.”

The courier soldier dashed away and ran towards the convoy escorting the criminal soldiers, bringing the news to the guards at the narrow pass who were watching the criminal soldiers.

From the higher command, Noland Lee smelled the scent of a trap.

The exorbitantly luxurious royalty of the ancient Tatis Dynasty built many heavily fortified tombs in the Blade Mountain Range, hoping to rest here undisturbed by the outside world forever.

The Blade Mountain Range was always shrouded in gusty winds, so neither the undead of the Undead Cult nor the Imperial Army could fight on the surface. Both sides unanimously chose to fight within the massive tomb clusters inside the mountain.

To defend their positions and seize the tombs, the Undead Cult invested in spirit pivots, while the empire built bunkers within the tombs.

Noland Lee’s original plan was:

He would blend in with the battle teams in the bunker, seize the opportunity to leave the battlefield, reach the surface through the corridor of the underground tomb, and then move to the northern side of the mountain range against the gusty wind.

If it weren’t for the current instruction, he could’ve chosen any bunker from

No.l to No.16.

Now, only Bunker No.16 was a viable option.

Isn’t this a strategy of “leave one side open for retreating”?

Perhaps Bunker No.16 is a trap already set for the Death Notice Spy to jump into.

“What a bad luck…l happened to run into Division Intelligence Unit Two capturing a spy, and my escape route was sealed…”

While maintaining a calm exterior, Noland Lee was churning with thoughts inside..
