Although the eldest prince is trapped in Boulder City, he has not been idle, and he has passed on some messages through his boss David, the most important of which is to send it to Count Richard. The Richard family has been loyal to Yuss for generations, especially when Count Richard was young, he stayed in the imperial capital with his father for a while, and he and the eldest prince had a similar temper and became good friends who talked about everything. So when asking for help from outside, the first thing the eldest prince thought of was the young man's partner, and there was another advantage to getting Richard's support, that is, the fiefdom of the Richard family was between Valen Pass and Nice City in the north of the continent, and it would be very convenient to unite the Northern Legion to start an incident, but the eldest prince waited left and right and waited for a reply. Just when he thought that Count Richard must have forgotten their boyish friendship, Famakos suddenly brought good news, how could he not be excited?

"Show me!"

The Grand Prince jumped up from his seat and snatched the letter from Count Richard from Falmar Ques's hand.

"Great!"

After reading the letter, the eldest prince patted his thigh excitedly, completely ignoring his royal demeanor.

"What did the Count say?"

Fama Quex asked calmly.

"The Count has contacted some of the officers of the Northern Legion, and they have expressed their willingness to support me. ”

"Is this news true? The Northern Legion is now in the hands of Moros, and Moros is Campbell's man, and the Campbell family is now in a hot relationship with the Phelps family, can they help His Highness?"

Although Fama Quex has been living in the West Street bar for a while, the owner David has been his friend for many years, and he still has a lot of information through David, so he knows that today's Northern Army is no longer the original Northern Army, even if the eldest prince goes now, the biggest possibility is that he will be arrested by the other party and sent back to the imperial capital to ask for credit.

"Archmage, I hope you understand that the Northern Legion is our only chance, so no matter how risky it is, let's give it a try. Moreover, Count Richard contacted the middle-level officers of the Northern Legion, these people were all promoted by Bernard and loyal to the Juss family, and now I heard that Blake had defected to the Holy See, and these soldiers who had been fighting in the border all the year round were very dissatisfied, so it was easy to win them over. ”

"Even if it is as expected by His Highness, I am afraid that the middle-level officers of the Northern Army alone will not be able to achieve great things. ”

"There are fewer people. But I am confident that when the time comes, if I raise my arms, the nobles who are still loyal to my father will be gathered. ”

The eldest prince's eyes sparkled, and he was obviously full of confidence in his appeal.

"Your Royal Highness, is the throne really that important? Your father has been in power diligently for more than ten years, and what is the final result, I advise Your Highness to abandon the idea of fighting for power and seize the throne, find a paradise to live in seclusion, and spend this life freely. ”

"Archmage, what do you mean by this? As the rightful heir to the imperial power of the Yus Empire, can't I even take back the throne that belongs to me? And my father's death, shouldn't I, as a son, avenge him? And the magic academy that you have worked so hard to build, is it possible that hope will be ruined, and there is no hope for the future of magic?"

The eldest prince asked a series of rhetorical questions, and his tone was aggressive.

"The hope of magic is long gone. ”

Fama Quex shook his head, looked north with his eyes, and smiled.

"Archmage, you promised my father that you would take me to the Northern Legion, and if you can't speak, won't you be able to speak?"

Seeing the old magician's indifferent look, the eldest prince was a little anxious, he always thought that the reason why the old magician stayed here and didn't leave was because he was reluctant to build the magic academy he had built single-handedly, but now it seems that he has a very light view of everything.

"I'm still going to keep my promise to Vettels. However, Your Highness, I am only responsible for sending you north, and I will leave once I reach my destination. ”

Fama Quex sighed, still sad about the murder of Vettels' old friend.

"As long as the Archmage sends me to Earl Richard's domain, you are free to do whatever you want. ”

Although the eldest prince was reluctant to give the powerful assistance of the old magician, he could only retreat when he saw his resolute attitude.

"Okay, then, let me make good on my last promise to my old friend. ”

The old magician nodded, and accepted the Great Prince's proposal.

"Then let's go out and see what Earl Richard's men can do to get us out of Boulder City. ”

The eldest prince was in front of the old magician, and the two of them climbed the steps to meet the envoy sent by Count Richard. When the envoy saw the Grand Prince, he immediately knelt down on one knee to express his loyalty on behalf of himself and Earl Richard. The eldest prince inquired and learned that after more than half a year of hard work, Earl Richard has successfully won the trust of Prime Minister Phelps, and his family came to the imperial capital this time to be responsible for a batch of furs, which were originally transported by them from the north, and saw that winter was approaching and was processed into finished products by the Phelps family and then shipped back to the north for sale, so that again, although the cost on the road has increased a lot, but the value of the leather goods has increased tenfold, of course, the majority of the profits belong to the Phelps family。

There were more than thirty wagons in the whole convoy of furs, and the eldest prince and the old magician were arranged in a carriage full of furs, and when they passed through the city gate, they saw that the goods in the carriage were stamped with the seal of the Phelps family, and the guards only opened the carriage and took a brief look at it before letting it go.

When the carriage drove out of the city gate and gradually moved away, the eldest prince hid in the carriage and secretly swore that sooner or later he would kill and return here. A few years later, his oath came true, and he really led his troops to the bottom of Boulder City, but he would never have imagined that it was no longer him who would eventually enter Boulder City.

The journey was very smooth, and after passing Zhuma Town and further north, the inspection was much more relaxed. The Grand Prince and Fama Quex were also able to free themselves from the carriage and change into the robes of ordinary merchants to act with the group. Of course, in the entire team, except for Richard's envoy, no one else knew the true identity of the eldest prince.

At the beginning of October, the carriage came outside the city of Nice, where the Count, Count Longley, was a loyal lackey of the prime minister, Phelps, and all those who passed through the city from north to south were to be strictly examined. The convoy that had already arrived at the gate of the city saw that the situation was not good, and decided to choose to go around the city, although this would waste some time and could not be replenished, but it could ensure the safety of the eldest prince. However, they did not expect that their actions around the city would be targeted by a griffon knight passing by. It stands to reason that the city of Nice should be a good place to wholesale leather goods, but this caravan is not able to get around, and I am afraid that something is wrong

This griffin knight is based in the city of Nice, and a team of papal masters is responsible for searching for the traces of the Great Prince, but nothing has been found for most of the year. For the sake of merit, he does not want to let go of any opportunity now.

Early in the morning of the third day, when the convoy of leather goods had successfully bypassed the city of Nice and returned to the official road, a procession suddenly appeared ahead and stopped them.
