Chapter 227: Rescuing the King (I)

On the official road to the east of the kingdom, a caravan of dozens of people was driving a carriage and was slowly marching in the direction of the royal capital. And the one who took the lead was the young proprietor of the Capybara Chamber of Commerce, the cowardly Andrew.

Originally, Andrew was left as a hostage in the Eagle Castle, but now he has appeared here. And his appearance immediately attracted the attention of the Holy See agents hiding near the royal capital.

These agents act as paladins in war, and act as scouts and agents in peacetime.

Each paladin in the Holy See will have one to three servants, and at this moment, all of them are scattered along the main transportation routes around the royal capital.

After Meloyd the Spider fled with the queen, Adam ordered the entire city to be locked under martial law under the guise of the king. All the servants were also released to keep a close watch on all caravans and individuals coming from the east. As long as it is slightly suspicious, it will be arrested and put in prison first. He would rather catch it by mistake than miss it.

Andrew sat in a carriage at the front, looking around with a nervous expression. He was sent out by Lana this time just to attract attention. To put it bluntly, he is just a disguise, purely to attract the attention of the other party.

And in the shadows, there is also a reconnaissance unit made up of scouts. That's the second covert cover.

Yes, Andrew is in the light, the scouts are in the dark.

Lana wants to put these two forces under each other's noses, and the elite surprise team led by Klose is in between, neither clear nor dark.

Lana deliberately pushes Andrew on the table, and the other party will definitely suspect his role, and then another team will be spotted in the shadows. Just when the enemy is complacent, thinking that he has insight into their plan. Klose is already somewhere in between, straight into the hinterland of the royal capital!

These people are strong and well-armed on the individual. Just look for an opportunity to infiltrate the palace and rescue the king, and everything will be perfect.

Of course, these things are just words, but if they do, they are very difficult.

Sure enough, the caravan led by Andrew was stopped by a group of soldiers when it was still some distance from the royal capital.

However, these soldiers were routinely checked, and they only knew that a demonic beast appeared in the palace some time ago, but they didn't know that the demonic beast had taken away the real queen.

Because the queen incarnated by the succubus still appears in front of everyone every day, and the king still gives various orders every day, and everything seems to have not changed.

However, the more attentive soldiers still noticed that King Holger had recently added some new faces. Judging from the looks and temperament of those people, they are not from the Lane Continent. They all wore uniform attire, with three scepters crossed together on their chests, clearly belonging to an organization.

Most of the people in the Continent of Klaine believe in the new Holy King of the New Holy City. Little is known about the Holy See there on the Holy White Continent.

This is also the reason why the Holy See of the Holy White Continent spared no effort to intervene in the Lane Continent.

After inspecting Andrew's cargo, the soldiers found that it was just some ordinary drink, and let him go.

It's just that in the shadows, Andrew's caravan has been targeted by those knights and servants. If nothing else, just because this caravan came from the east, then he must have something to do with the third prince of Holger.

While reporting the news from here to the royal capital, the servants followed closely behind Andrew's caravan and observed his every move.

And when the news reached Adam's ears, he pouted disapprovingly.

"Don't worry about that caravan, it's just a pawn to hide people's eyes. You need to be on the lookout for uninhabited paths and overlooked dark places, and there must be some of them who choose to approach the royal capital in the dark. ”

Sure enough, only half a day after the caravan entered the royal capital area, the existing Hu Cong sent a message that someone had found traces of a team's activities on the uninhabited mountain trail to the east!

Judging from the footprints and the clues left by the other party, the number of them should be about twenty, and their skills are quite good.

Adam's eyes narrowed slightly, he knew that this was the killer feature of the other party! It seems that the third prince chose to use the caravan as a cover, and then a few elites infiltrated the palace from the shadows.

I have to say that the means are quite clever. But in front of him, these are useless! Adam knew that Olivia's instructor was first-class in combat and had a very strong personal force. But when it comes to playing these intrigues.... It pales in comparison. Adam thought he could outdo his instructor in this regard.

After learning that the other party was approaching the royal capital in the dark, Adam was relieved.

If the prince chooses to lead a large army and attack the royal capital head-on with the queen of the real card, he really doesn't have much confidence that he will be able to defend this royal city. After all, the Praetorian Guards in the castle could not be directly mobilized by him, and he still had to use the eloquence of Holger III to give orders.

And that king's body is getting worse day by day, and it seems that he is about to be squeezed dry by that damn succubus!

No way! I'll have to talk to her tonight. This king is still of great use to their Holy See, and he must not be allowed to return to the arms of God so soon.

On the other side, after sending out two baits, one bright and one dark, the few elites led by Klose chose a road with no more pedestrians and no less, neither an official road nor a no-man's path, and successfully entered the royal capital.

And his identity is a young son of a chamber of commerce, with his maid and servant by his side, to Holge to propose.

Of course, this reason and identity was also arranged for him by Lana.

As for the great priest, because he is too recognizable in the royal capital, he can only be wronged by the old man to put on a hood and dress up a little. Otherwise, if he had to go there, any Praetorian Guard soldier would recognize him at a glance.

At this moment, the Archpriest of Ova has become Klose's old butler. The high priest changed into a butler's robe, draped in a heavy cloak and hood, and sat next to the coachman.

After the team entered the vicinity of the royal capital, the harpy and Raphael, who were in charge of the response, lurked in the woods and waited for the signal.

The Archpriest of Ova sat there without saying a word. It seems that there are many things hidden in the heart.

In fact, when he learned that it was the Holy See of the Holy White Continent who had come to attack, he was still quite shocked. Because deep down in the heart of the high priest, they feel that as long as they are clergy, no matter which god they believe in or which church they believe, they should be a family.

Their purpose should be to benefit all living beings and help the poor. Guide the confused people out of the predicament and find refuge and peace for them. How could he be involved in such a heinous act as the usurpation of the country? The most important thing is to be in the company of demons! It really puzzled him.

If he saw those so-called paladins, he must ask the other party face to face, which god do they believe in? Which house is holy?

After two rounds of investigation by soldiers, Klose, the young master's group, was directly put into the royal capital.

Luckily, they weren't interrogated by the paladins. Those people really habitually pay attention to the main roads and uninhabited paths, but they are the most sparse management of these people's traffic, but not too large roads.

In one, Klose did not deliberately hide his identity, but sat in a luxurious carriage in a high-profile manner. As the so-called opposite, this is a psychological warfare, and it is clear that in terms of psychological warfare, Lana won the paladin.

After the team drove the carriage into the royal capital, they followed the guidance of the Grand Priest of Ova and stopped at his doorstep.

Yes, the end of the crowd is the mansion of the great priest. I believe this should be one of the safest places in the royal capital, right?

They just need to stay here and wait until it gets dark to touch in....

The Archpriest of Ova had already drawn a detailed topographical map of the palace for Klose and the others, and they would never encounter the same situation as Meloyd again.

And this night, the young paladin Adam finally found the stinky body of Baron Rose in the palace garden....
