Fortunately, these remaining guards were not bitten by mutants. The purpose of Athena staying here and chatting with Becky for a while was to see if these people would mutate.

After confirming that there was no problem, she left.

But for the sake of safety, there were previous examples of guards delaying mutation by concealing injuries. These guards took ropes to tie their upper body.

The least wounded of the guards led, and Becky rode the last slightly wounded horse at the side of the procession.

After walking along the avenue for half an hour, they joined the line of anxiously waiting musicians.

Although it was only half a day, but after experiencing life and death parting, it seemed as long as a century.

Everyone hugged each other with tears in their eyes, asked about their health, and thanked God for keeping them alive.

And Becky was able to enter the carriage, and changed into dry clothes under the care of the maid.

The cold and fear still hovered in the body, but after reaching a safe environment, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Even with the death of so many guards, a cloud of darkness hangs over everyone's heart.

After receiving Becky, they continued on their way.

Although passing through several towns, none of them chose to enter.

At this time, the closer you go to the imperial capital, the safer you will be.

Becky sat in the carriage, silently praying for Athena, her benefactor.

She has terrifying strength, and she is heading towards Tira Town.

There is no doubt about what the other party will do.

"All I can do is to pray that you are safe... I hope you, my benefactors, can come back safely."

Whispering, Becky leaned aside and fell asleep tiredly.

When it was daylight, the sound of rumbling horseshoes passed by the convoy, and many small officers came to question them.

Becky was in a daze and couldn't hear clearly. A guard came to her anxiously and asked her for the token of the second princess of the empire, and then the soldiers hurried towards the direction they came from.

Not just one team of soldiers, but many!

From the time when the rain subsides and the sky glows with white light, a team of 5 people, a patrol army of 20 people, and even a city defense team of 100 people and an imperial army of 500 people...

They rushed to the rear from Qiumen Avenue one after another.

Becky took the dry rations handed over by the maid, and after a brief breakfast, she realized that these soldiers were all going to Tira Town for support.

Because when they cross-examined them just now, they asked the most questions such as "Did you come from Qiumen Avenue, did you pass around Tila Town, and what's the situation there?"

So it is easy to guess that they are the army that received the news and went to Tira Town to support them.

But along the way, many soldiers seemed to be blocking the news.

As soon as they heard that they were coming from the direction of Tira Town, they had to be detained temporarily.

If it weren't for the token of Willis on Becky, these soldiers might have been invited aside to take care of it.

But this situation is also reassuring, at least the empire has sent troops to Qiumen Avenue to support.

It's just that what Becky can't think of is...

When it was less than half a day away from Munsell, a large group of well-equipped cavalry led by many knights and swordsmen struck with the sound of rumbling thunder.

On the leading banner, the guards immediately recognized the emblem of the imperial family.

If you look carefully...

"That, that... that seems to be... the flag of His Royal Highness the Second Princess!"

"How is it possible, are you dazzled? There is still half a day away from Munsell, even if you arrive at the imperial capital, there will not be His Highness's flag on the city gate... Er..."

The negative guard, halfway through speaking, also widened his eyes in disbelief.

This time, he also saw clearly.

"Really, really... really is His Highness's flag!? How could this be..."

If Becky felt something, she poked her head out of the carriage.

She seemed to feel it even though she couldn't see it, even though it was far away.

The person who has connected with the deepest part of his body and even his soul is in front of him!

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

In just a split second, tears rushed out of his eyes uncontrollably.

Becky raised her hand to cover her mouth and nose, but an uncontrollable sob still squeezed out from the gap.

When the sound of rumbling horseshoes approached, the leading knight saw their carriage and shouted immediately.

"Who is in front, get out of the way quickly! The imperial army is moving fast, no one can get in the way..."

Before the knight could finish speaking, the three guards immediately stepped forward, knelt down on the ground excitedly, cried out in tears.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! It's really Your Highness!"

"Your Highness! Miss Becky, she is here! Luckily, I will deliver the lady safely, Your Highness!!"

Seeing that they interrupted him and wanted to stop him, the knight immediately stopped drinking and held his long sword high.

"Who are you!? If you don't retreat, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword!"

At this moment, a light but cold hum that covered a hundred meters came.

"stop!"

As soon as it fell, someone immediately followed and sent a message: "Your Highness has an order, stop advancing!!"

When Wei Lisi got off the marching carriage and walked towards this side quickly...

The guards were very excited, and Becky didn't care, and ran towards the direction of the familiar smell.

"Your Highness, Your Highness! Woooooo..."

flutter!

Willis was tired, but when she saw Becky rushing towards her, she still showed a relieved smile.

great~

"Your Highness, Your Highness! Woohoo, I'm sorry... Becky misses you so much, misses you so much, I thought I'd never see Your Highness again, woooooo..."

The girl's delicate body was covered with scars and stains, and it was impossible to imagine what she had experienced along the way.

But she was still alive and not fatally injured, that was enough.

Wei Lisi held Becky tightly with some fear, and used her body to dispel the cold for her.

The girl's delicate body shivered, and her uncontrollable grievance, sadness, and fear all turned into the clearest and most primitive crying.

"It's okay, it's okay... I'm here."

Willis stroked her back, comforting her gently and softly.

Watching this scene, the guards also raised their hands to wipe away the tears that they didn't know when they fell.

Behind, Victoria walked over with a sword on her waist, and then signaled to the army on the side.

Receiving her gesture, the leading knight waved silently, and the army continued to move forward slowly.

Only a group of personal guards and Wei Lisi's carriage remained in place.

Becky cried for a long time before venting out a lot of anxiety and pain. After she slowly calmed down, she snuggled into Willis's arms nostalgicly.

"Your Highness."

"what happened?"

With a sob, Becky smiled innocently: "I... Becky is dreaming, right?"

"What do you say?"

"Hee hee, just now Becky... also, had a dream of meeting His Highness... I didn't expect... Your Highness, why are you here?"

"Of course I'm worried about you ~ I haven't seen anyone for so long, can I not come out to find you?"

"Really!? Then Your Highness...hug Becky a little tighter, okay?"

Seeing this, Wei Lisi stretched out her hand and patted her head dotingly: "Okay, it's all up to you."

"Ah."

"It's still cold outside, let's go back to the carriage."

"Well, Becky listens to His Highness."

The next second, the girl was picked up by the waist, Wei Lisi hugged her tightly, and entered the carriage.

Volume 144#Chapter 3 The Devil Appears!Plague Batman! [[-]K]

Time went back to the early morning.

After Willis put Anne and Ophelia to sleep, she was restless.

After finding Victoria, although the guardian knight advised her to go to sleep, Willis was not in the mood.

I went to the front hall with her to check the news, and the two maids in charge told Wei Lisi that there was no movement in the direction of Wushi City at night.

The bird that Becky used to communicate did not pass any information back.

When the uneasiness in her heart became more and more intense, Louise suddenly came over from the corridor in her pajamas and found Willis.

"What's the matter, Miss Louise?" Willis asked pretending to be calm, "Can't sleep?"

"Well, in an unfamiliar environment, the body is instinctively more sensitive when sleeping for the first time."

Louise smiled, and turned to Wei Lisi.

"But it looks like I woke up in good time. What happened, Your Highness?"

Because it was just the uneasiness in her heart, Wei Lisi didn't want Louise to know about such pretentious things.

But just at this moment, the eunuch who was next to the emperor——Bode Kalia came over.

"Your Highness, there are people coming from the palace." The maid came forward to report.

A bad premonition rose in Wei Lisi's heart.

It was so late, and someone came to summon him. Judging from the previous precedent that there was no good thing to do with Lubas, this time it is probably even worse.

But as a subject, Wei Lisi had no choice but to go.

On the way, she asked the eunuch Bode, she didn't expect to get any news, but this time the other party replied anxiously——

"Your Highness, if His Majesty summoned you so late at night, it is natural that something important has happened."

"Big event? What is it? The barbarians are attacking again?"

After the previous battles in Youfeng Valley and Wushi City, Emperor Lubas gave her a 5-year period, allowing her to expand the army by [-].

Arriving at the present, the time is only half a year in the past.

Based on the current development of Wushi City, it will not be difficult to expand the army by [-] in the future.

The difficult part was how to defeat the barbarians.

As for the pirates to the east of the Amis Strait, that's nothing more than scabies.

Because the Kenar Wasteland has a vast territory, and most of the barbarians live in no fixed place, it is difficult to attack them head-on.

Even if the only city is attacked, they will not stick to it.

So even if the attack on the empire failed this time, there were lessons learned from the heavy losses of the Atopa and Tuoya tribes.

However, after their territories were carved up and eaten away by other wild tribes, the barbarians would still attack the southeast of the empire.

This is because barbarians have always been like this throughout the ages. They enrich themselves by plundering the resources and wealth of small border villages and towns.

If they were smart enough, they would understand that the failure of the two Tuoya tribes this time was due to the fact that they devoted their strength deep into the hinterland of the empire and were destroyed.

If it was just a simple looting, they would still be able to organize a small-scale attack as before without being caught by the empire.

If you think about something big enough for the emperor to summon him in the middle of the night at this time, what else is there besides the attack on the border?
