Chapter 428: A Coincidental Encounter

The agitated and apprehensive man tugged at the reins and turned his head as he watched the pretty figure in front of him.

It's really Princess Alice!

At this moment, the man's mood was both excited and bitter.

It's really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it. These henchmen of the elven king left the elven royal court and went deep into human society, searching day and night, but they couldn't find even a trace of clues.

Unexpectedly, when they gave up the task and returned in vain, they found that the target they were looking for was on the way back to the Elven Court one step earlier than them.

That's too dramatic, isn't it?

The man was about to excitedly step forward and ask Princess Alice a proper question. Suddenly, I saw the humans around the princess, all of them were masters, and they were faintly placed in a defensive formation.

Could it be that Princess Alice has been kidnapped?

Alice turned her head to see the man, and her face was also surprised. This man is one of the elf king's henchmen, and he is naturally familiar with Her Royal Highness the princess.

Seeing his solemn and cautious look, the smart Alice immediately understood what was going on.

"Thirteen, don't worry, these are my friends, and they are going to the Elven Court to help us."

Then, she turned back to Franco and said, "Captain Franco, it's my own people. ”

At the end, she added, "Trustworthy." ”

Franco nodded and gestured, and Ram, the shield warrior at the back of the group, stepped to the side and moved out of the way.

In fact, with Anthony here, there is no need for the people of the Spirit Fox Mercenary Group to put up any defensive formation to protect Princess Alice.

Even if you don't count Anthony, that exit is a saint-level powerhouse, and the golden fighter is not enough for the black-clothed youth to stuff his teeth, and it is completely enough to ensure the safety of the entire team.

However, Franco felt that they were mercenaries after all, and in this case, the Spirit Fox Mercenary Group would be too nonexistent. So together with Ram and them, they still used it as a protection mission, and pulled out a defensive formation around Princess Alice during the march.

In this team, fortunately, there is also Princess Alice who can protect them. Needless to say, Anthony and the young man in black, even if it was Princess Arlina, it would not be their turn to protect.

Good thing there's Alice, well, good thing.

The elf man named Thirteen saw it, and then he put aside his doubts and hurriedly urged the horse to come over.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, where have you gone, we are looking for you so hard!"

Alice stuck out her tongue, a little embarrassed. She was hot-headed at the time, and in a moment of anger she ran out privately. Now she also understands that what she is doing is very inappropriate.

"I'm sorry!"

Knowing that mistakes can be changed, Alice, the princess, has no shelf.

This apologized cheerfully, and had a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, and Thirteen didn't say much, just a strong urging.

"Okay, then let's go back quickly, the Elf King and everyone are worried about death."

Although Alice said that these were all friends, but after all, they were humans, and Thirteen still kept an eye on it, and did not say much about the situation in the elven court.

He even secretly regretted that he shouldn't have blurted out the identity of Princess Alice. Who knows if these humans will have bad intentions when they hear that she is the princess of the elven race. At first glance, they are masters with good strength, and if they break out, they may not be able to deal with it.

This elven man named Thirteen didn't know yet, not only the identity of the princess, but even the situation in the elven court, and what Alice knew, all of which were revealed to Anthony and Pan, without hiding it at all.

It's not that Alice doesn't have the slightest sense of guard, she has a big personality, but in fact, her brain is not stupid at all. With a strength like Anthony, if he wanted to plot something against the elves, the elven court would not be able to resist it at all. Since he is here to help now, it is natural that the more in-depth and comprehensive the understanding of the situation, the better.

At least the whole continent knows that Anthony is at odds with the Holy See of Light, and they are incompatible.

Even if Anthony really had some unknown plans, Alice would rather cheapen him than let the Holy See of Light get what he wanted.

For the Holy See of Light, which has been suppressing the elven race and is eager to exterminate all foreign races, Alice's resentment is deep-rooted. If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have ignored the overall situation and sneaked out as soon as her mind was hot.

Princess Alice glanced at Anthony secretly and said with a smile: "We are also about to go back to the Elven Court, let's go together." ”

"Okay." The elf man named Thirteen naturally had no objection and immediately joined the team.

"Excuse me." He said to Franco.

Under normal circumstances, elves are elegant and courteous. Seeing Franco's gesture just now, Thirteen naturally thought that he was the leader of this small team.

Anthony was so happy, Franco and others didn't explain too much, and when Alice introduced him to everyone, she only said that Anthony's name was Long Aotian, and did not mention his official identity.

This is also what Anthony has explained before, don't reveal his identity for the time being.

Seeing that there was another elf in the team, Thirteen was even happier. Although Daniel and he don't know each other, they are compatriots after all, and one more person is more powerful, and they are always more trustworthy than these humans.

The group continued to move forward, heading in the direction of the Elven Royal Court. But it didn't take long for Thirteen to be a little impatient.

"Captain Franco, isn't the speed of our march a little too slow?"

"If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, Mr. Thirteen should understand this truth. If the horses are urged to run as hard as they can, it will not be long before the horses are gone. Seeing that Mr. Thirteen sat down, this horse is a thousand-in-a-mile horse, and now there are signs of losing strength. If you want to go full speed again, I am afraid that the gentleman will have no horses to ride. ”

This is reasonable, and his horse is indeed not in good shape, and Thirteen is not good at saying anything, so he retreats silently.

Half an hour later.

"Captain Franco, this, can we speed things up a bit?"

"We've been on the road for so long, and we're already tired, so let's stop and rest for a while."

After resting, continue on the road. Elf Man Thirteen waited for a while, and couldn't help but ask again.

"Captain Franco, you see that my horse has been resting for so long and has recovered, let's just go faster, it can support it."

Franco: "Oh? Oh, you have a point. But now it's getting late, and it's too dangerous to travel in the dark. Let's set up camp first, get a good night's sleep, recuperate, and get up tomorrow to continue our journey. ”

Thirteen: "......"

Just like that, ten people haven't come out yet, and they are not marching in large troops, so they are not afraid of people's jokes. And although the sun has set in the west, there is still some time before evening, and it is getting late now? Is it too dangerous to travel at night?

The elf named Thirteen now has to suspect that this Franco leader is either a fool, or has other plans and harbors evil intentions.

While everyone was setting up the camp, Thirteen quietly walked up to Alice and said in a low voice: "Your Royal Highness Princess, these human friends of yours, there is no problem, right?" ”

Considering the princess's face, he said it quite tactfully.

Alice blinked her big beautiful eyes and said, "Of course, what can be the problem. ”

Thirteen had no choice but to go straight.

"Didn't Her Highness the Princess notice that they seemed to be deliberately delaying time?"

The word "as if" can be removed. Thirteen silently added in his heart.

Alice had expected him to ask this question.

"Don't worry, no problem, listen to him. We just have to go along. ”

Thirteen: "But ......"

He didn't know that what Princess Alice was talking about was not Franco.
