Reflecting the scenery of this poem, it is like the scenery in the eyes of Yuan Feiwu.

In the wilderness, you can see a fortress in the distance, flanked by thick walls that stretch between two cliffs.

The sun here seems to have set early, and it is only in the afternoon, but the sun has already set in the west, exuding a golden afterglow.

In fact, it's not that the sun sets early, it's just that there are no buildings around to block the view, making it easy to use the broad horizon as a reference, as long as the sun is setting in the west, it's like seeing a sunset.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, we have arrived. ”

Kelsen knocked lightly on the carriage door and looked inside.

"Okay, let's get out of the car!" Athena replied briskly.

The car door was pushed open violently all at once, and it would be pushed like this, and Kelsen didn't have to look to know that it was Ophelia.

Sure enough, a figure with bright red hair like a flame jumped out of the carriage first, stretching its limbs and taking a deep breath of the air outside the carriage.

It's a fixture when she gets out of the car, and Kelsen, who has been with them for almost a week, already knows some of their habits very well.

"It's dusk so soon?"

Ophelia wondered when she noticed that the wilderness was dyed golden yellow by the sun.

"No, it's only about four o'clock in the afternoon, and it's about two hours before dusk. Kelsen laughed, "The dusk here, the sunset is bright red, and the whole fortress is red. ”

"Oh, isn't it the same as the sunset over the city of Eternal, but it should look even more spectacular here. Athena and Gavin then got out of the carriage and exclaimed.

Athena had never seen the beauty of the border and was fascinated by this particular view.

"Eun!" Ophelia's mind imagined for a moment, turned her head to look at the sun on the right back, and said with a yearning expression, "Hey, although there is no way to do it, but give you a chance to watch the sunset with me!"

"Next time. ”

Yuan Feiwu smiled and pulled the door again to beckon Athena and the others to get into the car, because he felt a team of people approaching that was different from ordinary people.

Kelsen frowned, he didn't expect the other party to arrive on time, and he thought he was going to rest here for a while.

"Keep going!"

At the sound of the order, the princess's carriage set off again. Even if Ophelia is not happy, she has to get in the car and go.

In the middle of the fortress is a large gate, which opens early in the morning in peacetime. A dirt road that had been trodden out led to the border gate of Tost, not far away, where many people and wagons were carrying goods.

There is also a city gate on the border of Tost, which is different from that of Northway. However, the city gates were guarded by several soldiers to check for suspicious or wanted persons.

Kelsen escorted the carriage to the city gates, just in front of an oncoming group of more than a dozen people. They were dressed in plain clothes, and they exuded the same vindictive spirit as the Imperial Praetorian Guards, telling each other in a high-profile manner that they were coming.

"Defoe, Deputy Captain of the Ringguard, has come to greet Princess Athena of Northway. ”

The other party walked out, with a black beard on his face, a strong figure without a trace of fat, and introduced himself to Kelsen.

The military establishment of the Tost Empire was different from that of the Gnosvian Empire, and all military power was concentrated in the hands of the king, and then the division of labor was carried out. This part of the legion responsible for the security of the royal family is called Hibiki Guard, which means guards who respond to the orders of the royal family at any time.

"Okay, the princess will be handed over to you. Kelsen said.

The coachman of the carriage quickly changed people, and then slowly moved forward.

The escorts of the two countries quietly changed positions as they marched, and the Imperial Janissaries of Northway slowed down, allowing the ringing guards of Tost to wrap the carriage in. The guards on both sides showed great tactical literacy, did not panic at all, and the change of formation was over by the time the carriage reached the Tost gate.

Defoe and Kelsen both secretly praised each other's performance in their hearts, this is not a cooperation that ordinary soldiers can do, it takes years of practice and cooperation to achieve this tacit understanding and proficiency.

"Your Royal Highness, we are waiting for you at the border. Garvin Guard, the safety of the princess and the others is up to you. Kelsen knocked on the carriage window and said to the princess and the others.

As he spoke, his eyes looked towards Yuan Feiwu, who seemed to sense his gaze, turned his head, smiled and nodded at him.

Seeing Yuan Feiwu's statement, Kelsen really put his mind at ease.

The princess's most trusted person on this trip was this boy who came out of nowhere, and if he had told him this before he left, he would have thought that the person who said it was crazy.

"Excuse me, let us know in advance when the princess returns, and we'll stop at the border fortress. Kelsen said to Defoe.

"Rest assured. Defoe replied.

"Let's go!"

Kelsen turned his horse's head and led the royal guards back to the Norsway Fortress, where the leader of the border guards had prepared a place for himself.

Before the window of the carriage could be closed, Defoe approached and glanced inside to make sure who was inside, and Rao couldn't help but be amazed by a man as rock-hearted as he was. Especially a black-haired girl, so beautiful that his mind was a little wandering.

"Hello Your Highness the Princess, in Lower Defoe, I will protect Her Royal Highness the Princess to the Tost Palace, and the journey will be about three days. ”

"Okay, trouble General Defoe. Athena said.

When the carriage windows closed again, a triumphant smile appeared on Defoe's lips.

"Speed, speed!"

Defoe himself stayed at the end of the procession, urging the group to speed up, and everyone quickly held their breath to speed up, much faster than at the beginning, but quieter than when they came.

Before approaching the first city, the team suddenly turned around and quietly walked towards the barren mountain in the distance.

A few merchants who seemed to be resting nearby, opened their eyes to look back and forth, and after making sure that there was no one around, they hurriedly stepped forward to wipe the traces left on the ground after the procession marched. and then immediately scattered.

In the evening, night falls silently.

A group of men and horses came to the border fortress of Tost, and the leader was dressed in a blue dress, with a dignified appearance, riding a horse with exquisite harness, and slowly stopped at the gate of the fortress.

The gate of the fortress is not far from the city gate, and this is the time to close the city gate, and the general on duty in the border fortress is there to supervise the last part of the civilians who have cleared the customs, preparing to close the city gate.

At this time, someone suddenly came to report that the prince had come to the fortress, and the general was so startled that he ran and jumped back to the fortress, not knowing what the prince had driven to the fortress. but

It must not be a good thing to come to a distant and remote border so late!

"My subordinates see Prince Eddie Thost! Just now, my subordinates were on duty and couldn't receive them in time when the border gate was closed, please atone for your sins!"

"No courtesy. With a wave of his hand, Eddie let the general stand up, "Hasn't Her Royal Highness the Princess of Northway arrived yet?

"Ahh

The general knelt down again, whether this kind of thing was between the prince and Defoe or not, he was right to admit his mistake first.

"Defoe, no, that guy took a week off a few days ago. Edillo thought about it, and had some bad premonitions in his heart, "Oops! Could it be that Defoe has rebelled?"

"So Defoe shouldn't have taken the princess? The general said in a cold sweat.

The princess was picked up from his eyes, and if something happened, he couldn't run away first.

"Of course I don't notice! Divide a wave of people to help find someone, we didn't meet when we came, we should be hiding somewhere nearby and haven't gone far!"

Eddie also knew that something was wrong, something happened to the princess, and a big war would definitely break out between the two countries!

But the current Tost Empire can't go through war!(To be continued.) )
