Chapter 21: The City of Plenty
The convoy drove through the night, and the torches lined up to light the way forward.
After being attacked by St. Gregor's party, Scott strengthened his vigilance, personally leading the knights to guard William's carriage and allowing Brayman to lead the way ahead. And Guland, still the queen of the palace.
Since ancient times, when you rush at night, the most dangerous person is the person at the back.
In the entire Knights of the Lords, except for Skott, Guland has the strength to serve as the queen of the palace.
The convoy moved forward and came to a fork in the road.
On the left is their original route, which can reach Barron in the fastest time. The right side can also reach the Barron Territory, but it will take a detour.
Gulander followed silently, and when he saw the convoy turn to the right, he quietly drove past a large tree and carved a pattern on it.
β¦β¦
On the other side, the black-armored thieves who fled in embarrassment once again hid in the stronghold of the mountain forest.
When night fell, a black-armored knight changed his clothes and entered the royal capital pretending to be a merchant.
In an unnamed manor, the Grand Knight reports to the people on the throne:
ββ¦β¦ Originally, everything went well, but there was a magician in their team, who was very strong, and Saint Grex was not an opponent at all, and was easily killed by that magician. So we can only retreat. β
"Magician?"
The voice of the person seated in the main seat is rich and magnetic:
"What are the characteristics of that magician?"
"Very immature little girl, red-haired, and the seventeenth prince called her Serrane."
It turned out to be her!
Standing up, the light in the study shone on the appearance of a mysterious man, and I saw that he had a gentle smile and broad shoulders, and it turned out to be the second prince of Saidus. "Do you have any last words?"
"Nope." The Grand Knight shook his head: "At that time, the Seventeenth Prince was heavily protected by Thrany, and St. Gregory issued a declaration of death and rushed in. I thought I could exchange a life for a life, but I didn't expect... Selene had not used all her strength before, and St. Grex was killed without any resistance. β
The second prince was silent.
After a few moments, take out a piece of paper and some money from the secret cabinet:
"Find his family at this address, move them to my uncle's territory, and give them the money."
"Yes!"
The black-armored knight saluted and left overnight.
In the study with a faint candlelight, the second prince stood against the window, looking at the bright moon:
"I thought I was going to be caught, but it turned out to be a big general of mine, William, you hid so deeply."
Think back to the past.
The second prince had to admit that he was careless.
As early as April 19, when William provoked the Dornish at the Golden Manor, he had a plan in mind, and it was a plan specifically for the Grand Prince, and William's role in the plan was nothing more than a sword.
The eldest prince persuaded the king to punish William, and the second prince secretly signaled the executioner to do the black.
In this way, William could die.
As soon as he dies, the princes and daughters will definitely have a sad feeling of dying and their lips and teeth are cold, even if they have no friendship with William, but everyone is the same identity, and no one can care about it at all.
Not only will the princes and princesses be hostile to the eldest prince, but even the king will probably be suspicious of him.
After all, the eldest prince has always valued face very much, and William caused him to be despised by the DornΓ©s in the Golden Kingdom, and it seems normal to take a small revenge.
As the Black Armor Knight said just now:
Originally, everything went well......
Accidents happen one after another.
First of all, William miraculously lived, and knowing this at the time, the second prince's mood was slightly complicated. But I thought in my heart, it's okay, since he has a big life, just let him go.
But.
The eldest prince did not know where to get the news, and the executioner and the doctor were arrested, and the next step may be to question William himself.
The second prince knew that he couldn't let it go.
Originally, he was a hunter, and the other party was the prey; Now he's the prey......
First, he told the executioner and the doctor to shut up forever, and then his eyes fell on William: "It's not that I have to kill them all, it's the eldest prince who is pressing forward step by step, William, don't blame me." β
A handwritten letter, the elite of the black-armored bandits.
In the middle of the night, St. Gregory died with a clear will.
"Come on, come on...... the second prince silently blew out the lights and went to bed with his clothes closed: "Let's see who is the final winner." β
β¦β¦
2500 years of the Magic Calendar, 20 years of Sides III, May 20.
The weather was gloomy, and it seemed like a torrential rain.
The magic benchmark is located in the South Fish Constellation and the North Fall Division.
It is advisable to cultivate and avoid laziness.
After a long journey, sometimes day and night, sometimes at a rapid pace, the convoy finally arrived at the final place on the 20th.
Barron's territory, located in the southernmost part of the Kingdom of Saidus, adjacent to the Wolf Howl Grassland, has a vast territory, which is as big as an ordinary county, but unfortunately the territory is generally barren, coupled with the threat of alien races, it is almost a piece of Side's chicken ribs, and it is tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it.
The core city of Barron is a town called Rich City.
City of Plenty
Countless civilians left their homes, locked their doors, and poured into the streets.
The government office has issued a notice that the new lord is about to arrive, and everyone must come out to greet them.
For this new lord, those who are well-informed already know his information, the seventeenth son of the king, honored by the name William, and made a viscount.
I just don't know, how long can this lord hold out?
At the gate of the city, the ministers of the government department gathered together, sometimes chatting in low voices, sometimes looking up into the distance.
"It is said that the lord has no maternal power, and the biggest relationship is only a viscount's uncle, and it seems that there is only one big knight in the team at most."
"A great knight... Alas, it is difficult to protect yourself. β
"Who said that if the lord didn't live in Plenty City, maybe he would be able to escape in time for the alien invasion."
"Shut up!"
The first few people were serious, but the corners of some people's mouths were slightly raised, and some had evil in their eyes.
Fertile City has been a central city since the establishment of the territory, and I have not heard of a single lord who does not live here.
Time passes slowly.
Clouds of dust rose quietly in the distance.
An armored knight hurried to the gates of the city: "Lord Kelliver, the lord's convoy has arrived. β
"Okay." The minister named Kelly Fu nodded and said to the bystanders: "Manage the people well, and don't disturb the lord." β
After a while, dozens of knights slowly came.
All the knights wore armor, and all but the first three even wore visor helmets. Behind them, a convoy stretched like a long line.
Kelly Fu stepped forward with a smile, his eyes met for a moment with the knight of the leader, and then hurriedly moved away.
He was no more than 20 years old, surrounded by knights, and he must be Lord William Saidus.
"Barron leads the Captain of the Garrison, Kelly Ford, and leads all the people to welcome Prince William."
"Hello."
William turned over and dismounted, and had a casual conversation with the ministers at the head.
Then the crowd rode their horses along the wide, chaotic streets into the city of Plenty, amid the cheers of the civilians.
Everywhere the horse's hooves went, they all bowed their heads and bowed.
