After the establishment of the free city-state of Mfei, all the thieves, robbers and exiles were forced into the nearby mountains, and most of the criminals had to unite, after decades of joint development, the strength of the city-state increased greatly, posing a great threat to the city-state at that time, after several attacks, the Duke of Rhineer united the other two principalities, the Duchy of Ou and the Duchy of Peidi, the Duchy of Ou and the Duchy of Peidi have always been friendly, the Grand Duke of Ou and the Grand Duke of Peidi are jealous and hateful, righteous people, and because their principalities are adjacent to each other, and the Duchy of Ou is adjacent to the city-state, the citizens under their rule are also harassed by this group of criminalsWhen the Duke of Rheinger invited them, they also gladly agreed, and the ruins in the mountains were also an important part of the cooperation, the Duke of Rheinger promised to open the door of convenience for the two Grand Dukes, driven by common interests, the three parties jointly carried out several years of encirclement and suppression of the exiles at that time, because the terrain in the mountains was too complex and huge, in the end it only curbed the arrogant momentum of the exiles at that time, and did not completely eliminate the exiles.

The extermination was not completely successful, and the three Grand Dukes signed an agreement after that, and the matter was over, and indeed the exiles were all approaching the mountains, dormant, and the threat to the city-state was far reduced. In the twenty years since, the exiles have never attacked the city-state, but only against the mercenaries and travelers who have explored the mountains. Until fourteen years ago, the beloved daughter of the Grand Duke of Ouen, Daisy, disappeared mysteriously while out playing, the Grand Duke of Ouen was furious, and sent the Ninth Knights, the intelligence organization of his principality, to dispatch out of the nest, but did not find any clues, and since then, he has been rewarding Daisy for clues to the county lord at a high price.

It wasn't until four years ago that a bloodied mercenary appeared in the city-state of Mfei, saying that Daisy's lord was in the ghost bandits. The Ghost Bandits were part of the Exile Organization and their descendants at that time, and after the disappearance of the princess, this bandit group began to be active, and its leader was rumored to be very strong, as if he had broken through the high-level warriors and reached the Holy Rank. Grand Duke Orn also suspected that Daisy's disappearance had something to do with the ghost, but as the name suggests, Grand Duke Orn has never found the ghost's lair.

When the Grand Duke of Oun got the news, he immediately rushed to the city-state of Mfei, the mercenary who brought back the information was recuperating in the mansion of the city lord of the Rhinega, and the information about the ghost thieves had been told to the lord of the Rhinege city, the ghost was infighting, the two leaders were dissatisfied with the rule of the big leader, and the three leaders wanted to reshuffle the cards, and the whole ghost was already bleeding, and the lair that was hidden before was also exposed to the mountains because of successive battles.

After Orn learned about this, he immediately summoned his first, second, and third knights and the ninth knight in charge of intelligence to rush out, as well as a few high-level magicians and the only saint-level magician. The lord of Rhinege also sent an entire knight order to aid Archduke Auun, and after hearing about it, Archduke Pedi also urgently mobilized the first and third knights under his rule to assist Archduke Auun.

After gathering his troops, Grand Duke Orn immediately set off towards the ghost's lair, and after a day's rapid march, he finally arrived at the door of the ghost's lair, and what appeared in front of him was a hole wrapped in mist, and the head of the Ninth Knights stepped forward and said, "This place did not appear when we searched before, or this place was not like this when we came to this place before, we were confused by something." "What could it be?" said Archduke Orn. "It should be the Monster Moqi, which is rumored to be able to affect human perception. Being able to affect such a large area and make it undetectable to high-level warriors should be a holy order, and this is a trouble. A man in a robe behind the Grand Duke of Orn replied, this person was the only magician of the Holy Order in the Duchy of Orn, a figure who had existed since the founding of the Duchy of Orn.

After hearing this person's words, Grand Duke Ou En asked with a little respect, "Teacher, is there any way to crack it?" The magician who was called a teacher by Grand Duke Ou En shook his head and said, "The ability of the Holy Order's Mo Qi to affect human beings is already an instinctive reaction, and the warriors below the Holy Rank cannot resist it, and the high-level magicians may be able to resist it. After hearing this, Grand Duke Ou En fell into deep thought, his own side and several knight captains are the holy rank, and the big leader of the ghost on the other side is the holy order, plus a holy rank of demonic beasts, I don't know if there are other holy ranks of combat power, my own teacher is probably his biggest reliance.

But the thought that his daughter had been suffering for ten years made Archduke Augh's heart ache. Grand Duke Aun was just about to speak. His teacher had already spoken, "I'll go find Mochi first, and I'll control the influence of temporarily suppressing him, and you take this opportunity to fight quickly." Ou En said openly, "Teacher, by all means, this is too dangerous, if you ......" Without waiting for Grand Duke Ou En to finish speaking, the old magician waved his hand and said domineeringly, "A mere saint-level demonic beast can't hurt me, besides, Daisy, this little girl is also something I grew up watching, old man, I am also holding back a belly of fire now, just use this blindless beast to extinguish the fire." With that, he went straight into the cave.

Grand Duke Ouen and his entourage waited anxiously, and after a while, a huge magic fluctuation came out, and Grand Duke Ouen rushed directly into the cave when he saw this, and the head of the First Knight immediately shouted, "Everyone follow the Grand Duke and prepare for battle." After entering the cave, Grand Duke Ouen felt obvious spatial fluctuations, as if he walked into a portal and was teleported to the place he saw in front of him, here is a huge valley, the buildings are endless, and it extends to a hill not far away, where is the hill There are huge magic fluctuations, he checked the cognitive status of ordinary soldiers to the first regiment commander behind him, raised the long sword in his hand and shouted, "Kill." Then the breath of the Holy Rank warrior was full of energy, and he rushed directly towards the hill, and several knight leaders also led their subordinates to rush forward.

Under the leadership of several Saint-level knights, the ordinary soldiers of the Ghost Thieves Regiment, almost no parrying power, besides, the Ghost Thieves Regiment, which had just experienced an internal strife, and the people were panicked, and the people of the entire Ghost Thieves Regiment were unable to form an effective resistance, and the stubborn resistance of several small leaders was also easily solved by the Knights.

The whole army did not meet any decent resistance until the foot of the mountain, and after reaching the foot of the mountain, the three leaders of the ghosts, the four leaders led the elite of the bandit group to meet the great knights, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.

The commander of the Ninth Knight looked at the chaotic battle situation and issued an order to his knights: "Everyone in the Ninth Knight Order obeys the order and scatters to find the whereabouts of the county lord, with the safety of the county lord as the highest level." "The knights of the Ninth Knights heard the order and immediately went around the battlefield to touch the buildings on the mountain, Patrick, who was a captain of the Ninth Knights at that time, was naturally also in the search team, Patrick led his team around the battlefield, headed towards the mountainside, and after all the way to a small room in the corner of the complex, he found Lord Daisy, and a child was found with Lord Daisy. Patrick will always remember that day, the kid named Aven, with a knife in his hand, and behind him was the county lord who was kneeling on the ground looking a little delirious, and the corpses of two men lay at his feet.

When the child saw them, he clenched the knife in his hand and stared at them fiercely. As soon as Patrick stepped forward, the child immediately jumped up and slashed at him, Patrick immediately took a step back, dodged the child's knife, and exclaimed in his heart, "Beginner warrior, this kid is so powerful." At the same time, he said, "Don't be afraid, we have no ill intentions, we know the county lord behind you." A loud shout shouted, "Lord Daisy, we're here to take you home." But the woman sitting on the ground did not react, and the fierceness in the child's eyes disappeared a little after hearing the man's words, but he still stared at him with wary eyes. Seeing this, Patrick shouted again, "Daisy, Lord Shire." At this time, the woman finally had a reaction and looked up at him, but her eyes were confused.

The man shouted again, "Lord Daisy, we have come to take you home, I am a knight of the Ninth Knights of the Duchy of Orne, and Grand Duke of Orne led us to take you home." After hearing the Grand Duke of Ouen, a gleam appeared in the woman's eyes, and she murmured, "Father, ......" The woman struggled to get up, and the child immediately stepped forward to help her, but the woman seemed to be approached by something terrible, and shouted loudly and frightenedly, "Don't touch me." When the child heard this, he wanted to step forward but did not dare to step forward, so one of the female knights stepped forward to help the county lord. When Patrick saw this, he immediately said, "Leave here with the princess at once and go to join the Knights." Several knights were about to leave with the county lord at once, and the child saw it, so he ran over and wanted to pull the county lord's hand, but he didn't expect the county lord to react the same as before, and at the same time a little crazy, when the child's hand was about to touch her, she opened the child's hand fiercely and shouted loudly, "Get out, don't touch me." ”

The child looked at his mother in a daze, with a hint of pleading and expectation in his eyes. But the county lord turned his head and said to Patrick, "Don't let me see him again." With that, he turned away with the other knights, and one of the knights asked Patrick with a look, and Patrick shook his head and motioned for himself to deal with it.

After a few people had left, he looked at the kid and seemed to understand something. The child also stared at him, his body trembling a little, a little scared but overwhelmed. "Let's go," Patrick began, "where are you going?" the child asked. "Get out of this place first, this place is not safe right now. By the time Patrick returned to the frontal battlefield with the child, the battle was nearing its end, and several of the leaders of the Ghost Bandits had been killed, leaving only a few remnants of the army still resisting, most of whom had been annihilated.

Just when everyone was about to go to the aid of Grand Duke Ouen, the demonic beast Moqi, who had been suppressed by the Holy Order Magician, suddenly burned his life potential, broke through the suppression of the magician and rushed directly to the Great Duke of Ou En who was fighting fiercely with the Great Chief, facing the attack of a Holy Rank Demon Beast that burned his life potential, as strong as the Great Duke of Ou En was also hit by a blow and flew out, and the Great Chief, who was already seriously injured, also made up for the blow, and half of the Grand Duke's body was already in tatters.

Seeing this, the Holy Order Old Master was furious, because one of his own did not pay attention, but such an accident happened. The old mage directly mobilized the magic power of his whole body, and then raised his hands and chanted a spell, imprisoning the space in that area, and then sacrificing all the magic elements in that area. When the spell ended, the big leader had become ashes, and the monster Moqi was lying on the ground dying, all this happened in an instant, the high-ranking mage of the knights cast a spell to catch the Grand Duke of Ouen, several magicians immediately stepped forward to cast healing magic, several knight captains immediately surrounded the Grand Duke of Ouen, the head of the first knight came to the old mage who had exhausted his magic power, and carried the old mage back to the place where Grand Duke Ouen was healing, although the Grand Duke of Ouen was receiving treatment at this time, the situation was not very optimistic.

At this time, the Daisy County Lord also came to the Grand Duke accompanied by several knights, and immediately cried when he saw the Grand Duke's appearance, "Father" The Grand Duke of Owen heard Daisy's voice and turned his head to look at her with difficulty, "Daisy, my child, I finally found you, don't cry, Father is fine." "This is the old mage who eased up a little and came to the front of the Grand Duke. The Grand Duke looked at the frail old mage and said, "Teacher, thank you for your hard work, the student may have to take the first step." ”

The old mage looked at the rotten half of the Grand Duke's body, and the scars on his body were easy to repair, but Mo Qi's blow directly shattered the Grand Duke's soul, and he was already powerless to return to the sky, the old mage felt guilty for a while, looking at his student but unable to do anything, his student's daughter was missing for ten years before it was found. With a sigh, the old mage stood up and came to his students, forcibly mobilized the magic power of his body, and then forcibly extracted a trace of life energy from his own life energy, which was equivalent to a hundred years of his own life, but he could only forcibly extend the life of his students for another year.

After stabilizing the Grand Duke's injuries. The old mage asked several knight captains to take the Grand Duke back, and he came to the dying Moqi, took out a magic container, Moqi, put it in, and applied a seal. Wait for yourself to be better before dealing with it. After several commanders discussed, the second knight commander led half of the second knight and the ninth knight to stay here to deal with the battlefield, and the rest returned to the palace with the grand duke.

When everything was arranged and ready to return, Patrick looked at the child beside him, and did not know what to do for a while, and finally he found his regimental commander, the commander of the Ninth Knights, and after understanding the situation, the regimental commander fell into deep thought and asked, "Are you sure that this child is the child of Lord Daisy." "It should be true, judging from the situation at the time, judging from the princess's mental state, it should be right. Patrick replied. "You take a child back to the city-state of Mufei first, your task over there is not over yet, for the time being, you will take care of this child first, and when the situation of the Grand Duke is more stable, I will go back and ask the Grand Duke for his handling opinions." ”

Then, Patrick took Evan back to the city-state of Mfei. After that, the situation improved slightly after the Grand Duke returned to the palace, and the Grand Duke also knew that his time was short, so he abdicated after half a year and passed the throne to his eldest son. For the sake of his daughter, the Grand Duke of Ouen has dragged on and on. Thinking of waiting until the situation stabilized, he did not see his grandson until the death of the Grand Duke a year later.

The situation of the county lord became even worse after the death of the Grand Duke, and the whole person was crazy, locking himself in the house every day, sometimes wrapping this pillow and muttering the name Aven, but then slamming the pillow on the ground and crying bitterly. Archduke Owen's eldest son, Gavin Orn, who is also the new Grand Duke, also asked his sister after knowing the situation, but at the mention of the name Aven, Lord Daisy was like crazy. So Gavin didn't mention it again, but secretly went to the city-state of Mfei once to meet his nephew. The name Evan has not been mentioned since. (To be continued)
