The No.1 Escort Agency accepted a unique escort task: transporting Simon Durant, a notorious traitor, to the capital to be beheaded. As the formidable foe Shadow sect announced they would rob the escort, the trip was fraught with deadly peril. The escorts pledged their lives to safeguard the mission and were determined to rid the people of this evil. Chief Escort Gavin Roland discerned that the menial worker Nonus was in fact a retired Swordmaster; he earnestly persuaded Nonus to secretly guard the escort, and they finally defeated the Shadow sect.
