The Battle of Moonveil Stream.

I battled mysterious enemies alongside Dao in Moonveil Stream. After defeating a demonic guardian at a ritualistic statue and encountering invincible caged figures, we infiltrated a bandit hideout.

The mission took an unexpected turn when Dao suggested a ruthless tactic involving a majestic white horse to break the enemy formation.

After knocking the guard and opening the door, there came so many mysterious troopers. Both of us fought them together and taught them a good lesson as we cleared the entrance to the next area.

I found this ancient foundry stone where I activated a new teleport point. It was then that I got to know the name of this mysterious place, which was identified as Moonveil Stream.

We went ahead and I noticed there were some enemies trying to burn up some supplies. Dao jumped in immediately and started attacking them, so I had to follow his lead and help him take down the group.

I noticed an enemy was trying to unlock a glowing crest nearby. I took him down in stealth before he could finish, and then I successfully unlocked that crest for myself to gain its resources.

I had to push open a big gate without any help from Dao this time. Beyond it, I noticed a large statue that looked like it had lost its head, surrounded by strange figures trapped in cages.

After getting close to that statue, something demonic tried to attack me. It looked like a man, but I had to attack him for a long time to kill him, proving he was no common human.

After taking down that demonic being, I noticed a severed hand of the statue was on the ground. There was something like a corpse at the foot of the statue, making the whole scene look like a dark ritual.

I looked at those figures in the cages and realized they were alive. I tried to shoot them with fire arrows, but they were protected inside the cages and I could not land a hit.

I suddenly noticed Dao was not around me anymore, and I realized I had to climb even higher. I kept moving ahead alone, navigating the steep path to find a way back to my companion.

I had to open another crest while walking very close to those caged figures. I tried to attack them from this close side, but they still took no damage; instead, they reached out and tried to strike me.

I finally found Dao again and we moved together toward more enemies. After the fight, I blasted some wine barrels nearby, using the explosion to clear the path and disorient our attackers.

We found a ladder to get out of the cave, which led us directly to the secret hideout of the bandits. Dao mentioned we would be surrounded if we charged recklessly because the enemy formation was too strong.

Dao suggested I kill a white horse by the wall to cause a distraction. This confused my character, as I did not want to kill a poor animal, especially one that looked so cool with its long hair.

That's all for now.
