"So that's it, nya? I'll tell him nya!"
Lei Shuiyun was very happy to meet new friends again.
In a small forest, after chatting, Maomao almost completed his task.
"Thank you. Please tell him that this is an opportunity. He should also be very interested in the power of the crown system..."
Catherine doesn't play tricks and talks directly.
After all, she couldn't understand Maomao's flattery, polite words, or political temptations, but just being obedient was enough to make her Lu Ping'an's most trusted partner.
The two troubled royal family members appeared in the border area. Although it was a bit puzzling under the current circumstances, since they were here, they naturally caused a lot of waves.
They were trapped in this remote area... They were pursued by a group of "nameless bandits", but they had access to weapons, equipment and personnel at the level of a royal regiment.
"Are these the powerful Red Sand Bandits and Evil Bone Bandits of this generation? Their strength is comparable to that of the kingdom's second-tier knights, including at least three great knights (Silver)."
A knight from the royal capital said this... Obviously, he didn't know that the famous Red Sand Bandits were visitors from outside the land, nor did he know that the Evil Bone Bandits and the Red Sand Bandits had been mostly destroyed.
The most outrageous thing is that he was right about what he said.
Because among the team chasing them, there was actually a member of the Evil Bones gang...Evil Bones himself!
As a former secret agent, he had his own information channels and was able to take advantage of the information network deployed by the royal family on the border.
When the two highnesses, who did not know that the sky was high and the earth was high, used the secret information channels at the border, the high authority from the royal power made Evil Bones, one of the local highest authority holders, immediately aware of the fact that the royal family members had arrived at the border.
Next, it was simple. He followed the clues and easily found out the situation of the royal family members...and then immediately sold the information!
"...Everyone, what we are doing is a beheading business. Now that we have taken action, we can no longer hesitate."
On a hillock, Evil Bones, who no longer needed to cover his face, faced several masked knights and flapped maliciously.
Fenn Territory, Gulaikdas Territory, and Huihuang Territory, two viscounties and one barony, are considered powerful local factions... Instead of considering shopping around, Evil Bones directly sold the information to six companies , the border lords had a share, but only three families came.
Those lords sent out their own elite knights, who pretended to be bandits under the "leadership" of Evil Bones, and naturally had evil intentions.
This group of royal family members does not even have a silver-level leader on the surface. They are so poor and weak that it is no wonder that they are regarded as big fat sheep.
What did the lords think? It doesn't matter whether you want the political value of the royal family itself or the treasures, intelligence, and secrets that you carry with you.
The point is that they are already here, and they have already shown their butcher knife to the royal family... Evil Bones himself has already made a lot of money selling information. Even though he is the leader, he may run away at any time.
They ambushed these unlucky guys in Fenn Territory, but they were discovered by the opponent in advance. They actually escaped all the way, and now they have reached the border... When they really reached the unclaimed land of the Gray Forest, the pursuit became more difficult. It's unrealistic. In the current situation, any force is valuable.
Now, they fled to Shijiao Village, the border of Shi Lai Ling... For some reason, Shi Lai Ling was the only lord in the border area who did not receive the offer from Evil Bones.
By the way, even if the other lords did not send anyone over, they did purchase a complete set of information about Evil Bones and watched the two highnesses suffer, which shows that the dignity of the royal family has long been ruined.
Maybe there are lone strongmen sent by the other three lords in the shadows, ready to take advantage of the opportunity.
But judging from the results, this "many people and mixed opinions" has become the root cause of the pursuit being unsatisfactory, and the great knights have also reached the limit of pursuit.
At this point in time, everything is false. The right to survive and the force necessary to fight for the right to survive are everything.

The Lord will not let his knights pursue endlessly. Once they cross the line, they will naturally be asked to return.
"In the south, there is a glimmer of hope..."
Under the guidance of a certain prophet, this team encountered the patrolling knights led by Shi Lai in the small village.
But then, the pursuers arrived, and there were several conflicts...Catherine showed amazing results in the conflicts, like the holder of the Silver Holy Fire who was destined to be swept away, so that those who were not easy to reveal their identities could The veteran silver players are very hesitant.
In fact, the real hesitation of these knights was the matter of taking action against the royal family.
Some of them learned the "truth", but most of them still had involvement and belief in the royal family, and even subconsciously felt that their lord had done something wrong.
This is the result of the long-term education of feudal monarchs and subjects, but more importantly, even if the lords have ship tickets, there are extremely few who can use them to bribe their elite combat power, and they are really willing to follow their path. Naturally, there are not many black ones... It is impossible for the lord to tell too many truths, otherwise the collapse of social order will accelerate. Many knights who are chasing the royal family are still in a state of confusion.
The masked knights actually had several opportunities to kill and intercept the two His Highnesses, but due to various coincidences and each other's hindrance, they finally escaped to the border.
The high-level combat power among the attackers was ineffective, and among those being pursued was a rare profession called "Prophet of Destiny". In addition, Shi Lailing intervened, and in the end it was the pursuers who were outnumbered. People are blocked, but they don't have the determination and courage to take it down.
When the reinforcements led by Shi Lai arrived at an extremely fast speed, and among them there was an obviously high-level cleric (Marian), these pursuers were shaken again... Many of them, from the beginning, Don't want to complete the task.
After all, the evil act of "hunting down the royal family" violates a series of moral rules of knights. If he was the only one present, he could still kill him, but now the great knights from other territories are also there. If he really hurts His Highness, , what should I do if I am held accountable by the royal family after the news spreads? Will the lord protect himself? They just throw themselves away like a rotten rag.
This is the bad habit of not disclosing information enough, and it is also the real reason for the knights' hesitation... The masked men looked at each other and saw the retreat in each other's eyes.
The Evil Bones who witnessed all this felt strange, and even thought that if he had only given the information to one family, he might have solved everything.
But now, having taken the resources and money, he is ready to leave at any time and buy a boat ticket from a stranger.
In fact, there are already several territories where outsiders are selling "ship tickets" semi-openly. However, the price is extremely high, and the authenticity and safety cannot be expected at all.
Unlike Lu Ping'an's visible "smuggling ship", no matter how fanciful the claims made by other outsiders, their authenticity needs to be questioned, not to mention that many of them are liars.
Evil Bones has contacted several more reliable ones, but their quotes are all very high.
Reinforcements arrived in front of them, but the knights on their side were still procrastinating. In fact, Evil Bones had already planned to retreat.
Although the status of the royal family and the treasures are good, he may not be able to cash in the gains now that he is alone. It is best to make a fortune and leave.
But now, looking at those old acquaintances among the "reinforcements", he was filled with hatred, but he was unwilling to give up.
