Chapter 9: Hijacking (2)
Wright turned his head and glanced at Fiona, but the two of them didn't hear this, the princess is worthless these days, how can she let herself run into it everywhere, Wright thought silently in his heart, Fiona is just that, it was the witch's task assigned to him, but what is going on with this one, no wonder there are knights in this deep mountain and old forest, it turns out that he is still dutifully completing his escort work.

The three of Wright were taken to a more remote cave, the soil in the cave was still very new, a little moist but not so wet as to get on their clothes, it was obvious that it had only recently been excavated, because there was still a lot of vegetation in the upper part of the hill, and there were some rhizomes on the top of the cave that had not been completely broken.
There was some hay in the hole, and Wright could barely accept it, so he didn't sit directly on the ground, and then the guard left some food and withdrew, standing at the door and guarding, the shackles of his hands were directly tied to a chain, but the usual action of taking things would not be hindered, Wright picked up the soft bread and clean drinking water in front of him, and was even more puzzled.
A clean diet in this kind of place is not a low-hanging fruit, and it may take a lot of effort just to transport it in, not to mention that it will be eaten by the prisoners, Wright picked it up and took a bite, without the slightest doubt that the other party would poison it, after all, he has no power to restrain the chicken now, there is no need for this, the taste is soft, and the skin is not too wet by the moisture of the forest, even if the preservation method is intact, it is at most roasted yesterday.
Wright is now more and more curious about the purpose of the princess's outing here, although the magic is sealed, but the talent of the affinity is not affected, Wright quietly told Anne and Fiona, and then began to expand his spiritual sense, poking out from the hole, and gradually spreading to the hole where the knight returned just now.
Wright also probed the camp by the way, sure enough, there were far more people here than he had seen just now, many of them were hiding nearby and constantly moving, it seemed that the spies who came out to send out farther away, the surrounding reconnaissance was more rigorous, no wonder he was caught as soon as he got close before.
Wright concentrated on exploring the cave, after all, it is completely different from using spiritual sense to be immersive and roughly collecting information, and the spiritual power and the senses that are extended must be very closely linked, otherwise the visual and auditory senses collected will be greatly distorted.
This cave is obviously much larger than Wright's cave, the ground is obviously trimmed and relatively flat, a large long table is placed in the middle of the cave, some books and papers are stacked on the table, there are some shelves on the side of the cave, and some daily necessities and clothes are facing on it, at a glance you know that it is women's clothing, here because it is dug deeper, and the internal space is much larger than the cave entrance, so two lamps are lit for lighting, unlike Wright's cave only rely on the light shining in from the cave entrance.
The knight was standing at the table, and the long-haired woman beside him should be the princess, at this moment she was looking down at the materials on the table, her hair was bright reddish-brown, I don't know if it was because of the light, it looked a little golden, similar to her mother Aisha's hair color but a little deeper, her facial features were not very stunning, but the lines were clear and hard, and Fiona's beauty was a little more boyish.
Wright didn't dare to get too close, he couldn't see what was on the table clearly, he could only roughly distinguish some of them were drawings, and some were full of words, because the current state is equivalent to most of a person's breath here, and Wu Xiu's sixth sense is very sharp under long-term exercise, as if you can also detect it when others look at you from behind, Wright is very likely to be detected by the knight if he gets too close, before in the first layer of the witch's enchantment, Winster relied on his sixth sense to resist that invisible and phaseless attack.
"When will the mage arrive?" Wright came in for a while, and the princess finally broke the silence, "It's already on the way, and it should be there soon, after all, it always takes some effort to avoid a lot of eyes and ears." The knight explained, and the princess nodded her head to acknowledge, "I hope we can convince him that our plan will only succeed if it requires his help." ”
As he was talking, an old man with a white beard walked in, dressed in the most ordinary linen robe, but with a straight back and bright eyes, not at all like an old man, the princess and the knight left the table and walked over to greet him, "Chief Archmage, thank you for agreeing to our appointment." The Whitebeard Mage waved his hand and said, "Excuse me from polite words, let's get straight to the point, I have a limited amount of time here." ”
"Well, mage, you also know the situation in the country, it is absolutely impossible to go on like this, we must do something. Whitebeard nodded, "Yes, I know the current situation, but His Majesty is very cunning, and not too many people know about it even in the Imperial City." ”
The princess's eyes lit up with hope, "So this is also the purpose of my invitation here, please be sure to help us." The princess's words were full of earnestness, but the archmage was unmoved, "But I can't put the future of the kingdom entirely on you alone. ”
"But if we continue like this, the kingdom will fall, we can't sit still like this, and I at least have hope of saving the kingdom. "Then convince me, convince me with your plan, that it is indeed feasible and that there is a great certainty of success. The anxiety in the princess's eyes flashed, and she didn't stay long, and soon regained her composure, she knew that she didn't succeed so easily.
"Then please come here and take a look. The princess returned to the long table, arranging the materials on the table, and the knight stood aside without disturbing her, "This drawing shows the capital..." The archmage followed two steps, but stopped before he could reach the table, and interrupted the princess.
The princess looked at the archmage in front of her in surprise, not knowing what was going on, or if she had been rude somewhere, and the whitebeard mage looked around, then paused in the direction where Wright's senses were condensed, but then turned in a different direction.
Wright was shocked to be discovered, he had deliberately shrunk into the corner when he came in, and then before Wright could react, the archmage raised his hand and the vigorous magic filled the entire cave, and the princess's long hair was scattered by the stormy magic. Wright quickly retracted his senses, and if he took a step slower, this part of his spiritual sense would be severed from the main body and left in this hole.
