There were nearly a hundred people wearing the same gray-black robes, quietly gathering in the middle of the sand dunes.
Their faces were hidden under their hoods and it was impossible to recognize their faces.
Obviously, if they were in private, they would most likely not know each other's identities.
Therefore, even if someone is caught, they won’t be able to give out the others!
There are several huge rocks scattered around the sand dunes, with many snake-shaped symbols engraved on the surface of the rocks, emitting a slight magical power.
