"What are Mutated Ones?"
Kang Ding looked utterly bewildered.
In the Dust Road World, wandering believers were nothing more than a minor nuisance.
Only border guards like him kept abreast of information from all sides and could react immediately.

Linsey and Alvitte.
They really intended to go to the heart of the world war—the City
