Encounter a pack of wolves

Finally, the last rays of the sun vanished from the horizon.

All personnel got up and began to make the final preparations on their mounts. Because after entering the canyon, they will no longer rest.

The carriage has lit a dead wind lamp,

"Wei'er, go out for a walk with me!"

"But now that it's nightfall, everyone is ready to get up, Your Highness the Princess. ”

"It's okay! I don't think they mind if I'm a public director!"

Layla's smile is so sweet that it's impossible to refuse.

"A little while, then!" Vile said in a semi-commanding tone.

"Well, just a small box of people. ”

Layla stepped out of the carriage first. The night sky is full of stars, and the moon is close to the full moon as if to tell people that it is the middle of the month.

"Princess, be careful of the cold. ”

As Layla's personal maid, Vile had a hint of reproach in her tone. As he spoke, he draped the cloak that had been turned out of the trunk of the carriage over the princess.

Layla and Vere grew up together, and they are nominally master servants. But their relationship goes beyond servants, and Vielle, who is a few years older than Layla, is more like an older sister.

[Alpha 04 calls, what's going on?] In the distance, Elpa's voice can be heard on Herara's radio.

Since Elpa was in charge of pathfinding, she didn't know what was going on in the carriage.

Herara looked at the princess who was a little like a little girl next to the carriage, and pressed the vibrating walkie-talkie around her neck,

[Our princess is making the final preparations for the trip.] ]

[hmm???]

Looking at the dancing princess, Herara said to herself, "Probably, that's what happened!"

[Would you like me to remind me?]

Elpa, on the other side of the radio, was silent for a moment.

[Forget it!Notify the people in charge of the break, so that they can be alert in the middle of the night!]

[Understand!]

Hera replied with her right hand in a salute, though Elpa couldn't see it.

Layla's snowball fight is finally coming to an end, in fact, because it's just her and Vile playing it. After a long time, I always feel tired.

Except for the two guards who followed him, the other security fighters had never seen this place from beginning to end. Everyone is serious in their own area of responsibility.

"Alright, let's go back!" Layla gasped.

"Hmm!"

Both of their faces were red from the cold, but the smiles on their faces were heartfelt. At least, Vile hadn't seen a princess so happy in a long time.

Seeing the princess get into the carriage, Herara hurriedly exchanged information with the front and rear wings.

The convoy began to slowly accelerate into the canyon. Because the horse's hooves and wheels were wrapped in animal skins, they pressed into the snow almost silently.

This canyon in the Brix Mountains, although it is called a canyon, is not narrow, and it is no problem to have two carriages in parallel.

Very few people walk here for several reasons.

One is that there will be an avalanche if the sound is too loud here.

Second, this is the lair of the snow wolf. As the native inhabitants of the snowy fields, this creature has lived in this area for centuries.

Third, the canyon detour is too long, stretching for nearly 200 kilometers before and after.

All in all, there are too many people to live, and fewer people are easy to let the snow wolf be wiped out.

At this moment, the convoy has entered the center of the canyon.

Suddenly, the voice of the person in charge of the aftermath came over the radio.

[Watch out for the wolves!]

This is definitely not good news for the convoy, which is already halfway there. Exiting the canyon or continuing on is not a good option.

[Whew... Herara asks your men to follow the carriage and keep going, keeping the speed of the vehicle. ]

[Got it.] ]

Because of the urgency of the situation, Elpa no longer cares about the rules of radio calls.

After the call, Elpa made a few tactical gestures to his left and right flanks. Four of the team immediately slowed down, then broke away from the striker and followed Elpa to the back of the convoy.

Since they were riding a wolf, they caught off with the carriage and startled Vile and the two chief guards.

Vile was excited. It was the first time she had seen such a legendary creature of the empire.

"Look, look. Princess, it's a wolf!"

Has Vile started to pay for herself, but luckily there were only two people in the car.

Layla held her forehead with a black line on her face, and screamed that her head hurt.

The two chief guards cursed secretly,

"Why are they here?"

The appearance of the wolf means that the elite of the Bricks soldiers are also here. This situation is not something that the two of them don't want to see.

Although the faces of the two people could not be seen clearly in the dark night, it was certain that the two of them were absolutely depressed at the moment.

The two of them shouted at the same time, originally just trying to consume the number of accompanying guards. Unexpectedly, these people also participated in the escort work.

The two of them regretted a little at this time, and each spoke. "I knew they were there, so I wouldn't have done it. ”

Shortly after passing through the convoy, Elpa and the others finally met with the broken team.

There are only a few team members after the break.

At this point, these people had stopped. One of them was crouching on the ground, surveying something.

"What's the situation?"

Seeing the captain coming in person, the people on the ground immediately stood up and ran over.

"This was found on the ground. As he spoke, he handed Elpa, the cloth in his hand.

"What is this?"

"It's venison jerky!"

Elpa opened it and looked at it, it was indeed venison, and it was covered with fat.

Elpa placed the piece of venison next to his nose and sniffed it gently.

"This is the fat of the light rodger. "Who keeps the grease for the fleet?"

The crowd shook their heads, as the front and rear guards were out of sight of the convoy, and they were unable to provide any useful information at the moment.

Elpa thought about it, let's settle the wolf pack first.

"Who first spotted the wolves? ”

"Report to the captain, it's me!" replied an elite soldier.

From his stature, you can tell that this is a ranger veteran. After receiving Elpa's approval, the soldier continued,

"As soon as I entered the canyon, I spotted this pack of snow wolves. ”

One of the team leaders in charge of the guard task took over and continued,

"When I got the report, I thought it was just a chance encounter with them. So I didn't take it to heart, just let Lorraine continue to monitor. "But the snow wolves have been hanging from the back of the convoy for hours. "At first I thought it was the wolves who found the convoy, until we found it. ”

Elpa stared at the venison in his hand again, "What is the number of wolves?"

"About thirty heads. There are some errors, but the total number will not exceed forty. The lean man called Lorraine thought for a moment, and continued, "They have been following us two miles away, unhurriedly. ”

"Oops!"

Elpa's sudden words made the hearts of everyone present suddenly tighten.
