"Good." The commander gave a final nod. With that said, Apollo and Tamora left the room and came out.
Outside, Tamora led Apollo down a narrow corridor lined with dim lanterns and faint sword engravings pulsing on the walls. "You really surprised the commander," she said quietly. "He doesn't trust people easily, especially outsiders."
Apollo gave a faint smile. "Then I'll have to earn it."
They then first take a tour of the outpost while Tamora starts to give him a brief overview of the current situation.
"The Crimson Sword domain has a total of 108 outposts like this one with similar distribution of strength that guard the domain from the abyss."
"Previously the situation wasn't this grave, but since a year ago the appearance of abyssal rifts seemed to be increasing, and stronger abyssal monsters started to appear one after another and destroy everything in their path."
