Chapter 45 The Lost Princess

In the dense forest, a team of people in black clothes escorted a carriage, driving with difficulty in the mountain stream, and the uneven road stumbled, but the people in the team were silent, and all the people in black did their best to escort the carriage.

The carriage touched a gravel on the ground again, and the entire carriage jumped up slightly, and at this time, a man in black on the side of the carriage quickly helped with his hand, and the huge carriage landed smoothly under the hands of the man in black. This is a strong man who is at least a mid-rank knight squire.

An exclamation of surprise came from inside the carriage, apparently frightened by the sudden stumbling, and the curtain of the carriage was opened, revealing a handsome face that was as white as a picture. "Where are we now, Sir Lane?" came the crisp voice of the woman in the carriage.

"Your Highness Princess, we should be located in the southeast of the Mofei Forest now, and further on, we will reach the Bering Mountains. The man in black who was holding the carriage before said.

"Bering Mountains? I have the impression that the teacher said that there are abundant fiery red fruits here. The beautiful woman with snow-white skin pondered for a while and said.

"Hey, how long will it take to get to my brother?" the woman asked the man in black sullenly in the carriage. She has been in the carriage for almost two weeks, which is a torment for her who has been in the royal capital.

"For the sake of safety, we will take a relatively remote road, and it is estimated that in another week we will be able to join the nearest army nearby, and with the protection of the army, the princess will soon be able to meet His Royal Highness the Prince. The man in black replied honestly.

"Can't you hurry?" said the princess, angrily.

"Everything is about the safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess. The man in black indirectly rejected the princess's offer.

The princess angrily pulled down the curtains, ignoring the stereotypical Sir Lane.

Yes, this group of people is Princess Angelina, who left the palace without permission, and his guards. Sir Lane, the Man in Black, is one of the captains of the Darkguard Ground Guard.

The convoy walked until evening, with the guards hunting and watching, and the princess's personal guards and maids cooking and serving Princess Angelina.

The man in black, Sir Lane, was on guard in the canopy of a century-old tree more than 30 meters high, he was the most powerful man in the team, and he had to pay attention to the wind and grass.

When night fell, the princess and others sat quietly by the campfire, several palace maids looked at the sparks boredly, and Princess Angelina held a huge parchment book and flipped through it, chattering from time to time. Ser Lane made his rounds and returned to the tree, leaning against the trunk and looking into the distance.

How did the gang in the palace decide on this trip, Sir Ryan thought with annoyance, Faustin's most precious princess had left the palace with only the protection of a team of secret guards, or did she have to go to the front line full of dangers? Crossing the Murphy Forest, where monsters were rampant? Sir Ryan really wanted to open the head of the court herald assigned to him to see what was inside.

When Sir Ryan first accepted the task of defending the princess, he thought that he was going to prosper, that the glory of the Ryan family would bloom again in his hands, and that the vampires who looked down on him and had plotted to rob him of his family property would pay the price. But for now, Sir Ryan only wants to escort the princess to her destination safely, and hell with those fantasies. The princess made a mistake, not to mention his head, and even the declining Ryan family had to be buried with him.

Sir Lane was born into a ruined aristocratic family, and his ancestor was said to have been a viscount, but he did not know which generation declined, and one generation was not as good as the next, and now the Lane family has nothing left except a family tree, a family coat of arms, and three or two small farms. The title of nobility was not recognized at an early age, and even the only property, a few farms that did not earn much money a year, were also seized by the rest of the surrounding minor nobles when Sir Lane was a child.

Sir Ryan has been inspired since he was a child to make those who murder the Ryan family look good, so when Ryan was a teenager, he asked a distant relative who was not very close to him to send him to the Secret Guard training. The dark guard is a sword belonging to the king, and nobles are usually not allowed to stuff people, and Ryan is also lucky to catch up, and by mistake he was really selected for the dark guard.

But it may be the humiliating experience of the family when he was a teenager, so that Sir Lane's personality is a little unsociable, and his popularity in the dark guard is not good, after so many years, he has found a lot of ways and spent a lot of money, and now he is just the captain of an ordinary Dizi team, and the people who are his contemporaries, some go directly to the captain and deputy captain of the Tianzi team, and some are more than a step stronger than him although they are also in the Dizi team.

Ryan sometimes complains about the injustice of this world, but in the blink of an eye, he can only choose to accept it. Ryan's talent is not high, he started cultivating at the most suitable age for cultivating Dou Qi, and it has been more than ten years now, and he is only a mid-level knight squire, which is still with the help of famous teachers and precious potions provided by the dark guards. Of course, compared to ordinary people, Ryan can be regarded as a genius, and there are not many mid-level knight squires in his age. This is one of the important reasons why he was selected as the Dark Guard until he was appointed captain, and it was this captaincy that allowed Ryan to earn the knighthood bestowed by His Majesty the King, and revitalized the Ryan family. There are real geniuses these days, but they are difficult to discover.

Ryan remembered how excited he was when he just accepted the order of the herald from the inner court, the task of escorting the royal relatives is not common, and even if there is, it is the work of the Tianzi team, not to mention the most noble Princess Angelina, as long as she can please the princess, what reward will the king not reward? Ryan was really grateful to the herald from the bottom of his heart, and gave all the gold coins in his hand to the herald at that time, and the herald also praised Ryan in a serious way, asking Ryan to protect the princess Yunyun and not reveal her whereabouts. Ryan now thinks back and just wants to scold his mother.

Thinking back on the hardships and hard work along the way, Ryan turned white. At first, he thought that his team was just one of the teams escorting the princess, but it wasn't until he left the border with Faustin that Ryan realized that this was the rhythm of only their escorts. Isn't this a joke, who is responsible for what happened to the princess?

Although Ryan is not good at communicating, and he is not good at mixing in the dark guard, it doesn't mean that he can't socialize, Ryan is not stupid, of course, he realized that there was a conspiracy the moment he left the border with Faustin, and he, a guy who is very unpopular in the dark guard, should be regarded as an outcast by some powerful people in the upper echelons.

Although Ryan is inexplicably involved in the conspiracy, he knows that his current main task is to protect Princess Angelina, and he is not qualified to be remembered by the higher-ups, Princess Angelina is the target of some people.

Ryan immediately told Princess Angelina about his suspicions at a secret time, and Ryan feared that his team or the princess's personal staff might have already been mixed with ill-intentioned people. Princess Angelina was very indifferent to this, perhaps she had expected it a long time ago, but Princess Angelina did not panic after hearing this, but persuaded Ryan to calm down, "All you need is to send me to my royal brother." Princess Angelina said.

Ryan can stand out in the crowd like the dark guard, who is not lacking in talent and sweat, and become a captain, he still has the ability, and Ryan also tried his best to protect Princess Angelina along the way.

As Ryan expected, on the first night of leaving the border, someone in their team disappeared, and it should be the traitor who reported the news, the private whereabouts of a noble princess, who was definitely worth a thousand dollars. Ryan decisively and directly abandoned most of the cumbersome luggage, and even the personal belongings of a carriage carried by Her Royal Highness the Princess, Ryan hid it somewhere with the tacit consent of the princess. Ryan decisively led the group into the Murphy Forest, and only by entering the intricate and demonic Murphy Forest could they avoid the dangers that might exist in the shadows.

Along the way, everyone did encounter a lot of dangers, Ryan had bypassed the central area of the Murphy Forest, and headed towards the Bering Mountains from the south, but he still encountered attrition, two shadow leopards with intermediate Warcraft level reduced the team's three carriages to two, plus the impact of the rest of the small and medium-sized Warcraft and demonized creatures, the team of more than 30 people is now only more than ten people left. And most of them are his secret guards, and there are only three of the princess's guards and two palace maids.

It may be that they have never encountered a demonic beast before, and everyone was quite embarrassed at first, and only a few low-level demonic beasts broke up in the team, and the casualties were also generated at the beginning. Not to mention others, even Ryan himself has never seen a few Warcraft, and he has encountered one or two during the mission, but this time, he can meet one or two every half a day, which really challenges Ryan's nerves.

At this time, everyone in the woods breathed a sigh of relief, there were not many powerful demonic beasts out of the Murphy Forest, and it was not a problem to have the powerful Sir Ryan in safety, this was what everyone thought in their hearts. Sir Lane's strength in recent days has indeed given everyone a lot of confidence, and the scene of the Dark Guard captain defeating two Shadow Leopards of his rank is still vivid. Princess Angelina is also tired from the day's travel, although she has been protected in the center, this princess who has never been far away is not as indifferent as she appears. But the cultivation cultivated since childhood and the dignity of being a princess do not allow her to show a timid and scared look.

Princess Angelina quietly looked at the "Brief Outline of Demonized Creatures" in her hand, and only reading a book could divert Princess Angelina's attention at this time. Princess Angelina, who is reading a book, is like a holy angel, removing a lot of the irritability of the people around her at this time, and everyone performs their own duties and does their own thing.

The bonfire burned higher and higher under the busy work of the guards, and suddenly there was a sound of breaking through the air, and a short black arrow suddenly passed through the neck of the guards who were beside the bonfire, and the screams of the guards before they died woke everyone up.
