"Then why are they dealing with the Chancellor?" Qi Dafei asked the confusion in his heart one by one.

"The Chancellor of the Exchequer is in charge of the country's money and food, think about it, how many important positions is this?" Captain Lee explained.

Finance is often the top priority of a country or a federation, even if it is an army, if there is no financial support, those armies will not have much lasting combat effectiveness.

It seems that the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Chancellor of Magic are at odds with each other to the point where either you die or I die, but judging from the current situation, the King and the Chancellor of the Exchequer are already in a united front, but they are still forced by the Chancellor of Magic to retreat to the palace.

"The king's current situation is so dangerous, why don't you go to the royal city to help retreat the enemy?" Qi Dafei continued to ask.

"It's not that we don't want to, it's just that the royal city, except for the royal palace, is now under the control of the Minister of Magic, and the king is still inside, so the people loyal to the king will inevitably throw a mouse." Captain Li sighed and continued: "It's just that the golden scepter is still in the king's hand at the moment, this is something that has been owned by kings in the past, and it symbolizes royal power, so at present, the Minister of Magic has not made any big moves, and the two sides have been stalemate." ”

"How long has it been?" Qi Dafei asked.

"It's only three days." Captain Li smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly, and it was almost to the point where everyone knew about it." ”

"In fact, everyone is hearsay, although it is basically true, but no one dares to believe it." Qi Da Fei Dao.

"Well, so you have to keep this news secret at all, and don't spread it, so as not to have a bad impact on other people." Captain Li said earnestly.

"Don't worry, Captain Li, I'm ruthless." Qi Dafei said with a package ticket.

Although Qi Dafei said so, he would definitely tell the truth to these people in Nanshannan, and as for whether they could keep this secret, Qi Dafei could only say that he did his best.

After Qi Dafei and the others finished talking about this, they didn't speak again, and they both fell into silence.

"The ......"

"Big Fly, ......"

After a moment of silence, he spoke at the same time.

"Hehe, Captain Li, let's talk first." Qi Dafei touched his head embarrassedly.

"That's the case, you're a player, I don't know if you're not interested in going to the royal city?" Captain Li smiled slightly and asked first.

"Oh? Is there any task? Qi Dafei immediately came to his senses, in the last city lord's incident, his reward was in vain, but Captain Li promised last time that he would give some compensation in the next mission.

"That's right, although the Minister of Magic launched this is the 'Qingjun Side' incident, but all the functions of the Federation are still in a state of operation, but it is no longer convenient for the people of our city defense camp to enter the royal city, so I consider whether it is possible for the player to escort the city lord over." Captain Lee explained.

"That must be unwanted!" Qi Dafei sat up straight happily, "However, with our ability, it is estimated that it will be several months before we arrive in Wang Cheng." ”

"And ......" Qi Dafei paused and continued: "There is still a certain risk in this kind of thing, and the whole process is left to us players to deal with, isn't it a little hasty." ”

Captain Li nodded after hearing this, and said: "I also thought about this matter just now, we will at least send a team leader to follow, but this problem of rushing is ......, well, it is indeed more troublesome, Phoenix City is still too far away from the royal city." ”

Speaking of the problem of hurrying, Qi Dafei didn't think about it at first, and then suddenly remembered the matter of going back and forth from Phoenix City to Xinghua Village.

"By the way, Feiyun Trade Group!" Qi Dafei patted his thigh and said, "If there is a carriage, the speed of the journey can be increased by at least several times." ”

"You mean...... Hire their fleet? Captain Li asked.

"That's not true, you can rent some carriages." Qi Dafei said, "Hey, by the way, don't you have horses in your city defense camp?" ”

"This is really not true, we are only responsible for the defense of the city, and we are not cavalry, and we don't have horses." Captain Li said helplessly, "And horses are very scarce, and they can't be equipped in ordinary cities." ”

Qi Dafei asked when he heard this, and then he remembered that there really aren't many horses in this game world, if you want to have so many in real life, not to mention one horse per person, at least every big bank will be equipped with a lot of horses.

"Then we'll have to see if we can rent a carriage." Qi Da Fei Dao.

"How much do you think you need?" Captain Li asked.

"I can't go alone, at least there is a small team, plus the deputy captain and the prisoners, at least three." Qi Dafei counted.

The carriage in this game world is not the kind of sedan car with a box in ancient China, because there is basically no rainy weather in this world, so the carriage is dragged behind a large board car, so as to drag more people or goods to a greater extent.

And in the game world, horses will not starve to death, let alone die of exhaustion, so their combat effectiveness is simply more than a dozen streets away from horses in reality.

"Okay, that's it, I'll arrange the horses, you can bring as many people as you want, anyway, it's just three carriages, and in addition, I will only release the task to you." Captain Lee decided.

"Do you accept the assignment 'escort important prisoners'?"

As soon as Captain Li's words fell, a task collection prompt also appeared in front of Qi Dafei's eyes, and he chose to accept it without hesitation.

"Please escort the prisoner to the Ministry of Justice in Wangcheng within forty-five days, mission reward: unknown."

It's another task with an unknown reward, Qi Dafei is already starting to see it, anyway, he knows that the reward of this task will not be bad.

"Captain Li, I don't know when we're leaving?" Qi Dafei asked again.

"Without further ado, in an hour, meet at the east gate of the city, this mission must be kept as secret as possible, you know?" Captain Li said softly.

Qi Dafei nodded and said that he understood, it was impossible for this mission not to reveal anything about it, he would definitely not be able to complete it by himself, and he would definitely have to ask Nanshannan and them for help.

And the reason why Qi Dafei dared to come down without Nanshannan's consent was that he knew that Nanshannan would definitely be willing to go on this trip, and he was already ready to move when he was not sure whether the situation was true before, and if he was told that there was indeed something to do this time, and the people from the city defense battalion were with him, he would definitely agree to go without hesitation.

Moreover, this mission is not at all in conflict with fighting the Crow Temple, the design of the Crow Temple is too good for the player, you can enter anytime and anywhere, there is no restriction at all, and it is probably one of the willingness of the key to be so difficult to beat.
