In the darkness, Thales followed the fleeing people, walking uneasily.

The soldiers of the White Blade Guards have been divided into three teams. One team is moving forward to search for danger, and the other team is behind to guard against possible pursuers.

The last group was guarding them.

Nicolai walked at the front of the group and sighed deeply in the darkness.

"When did it happen?" he said hoarsely.

No one answered him.

Until Miranda's voice came from the side.

"If I had to guess," the female swordsman said calmly, "it has been from the beginning."

Nicolai was silent for a second.

"It's possible that he was just deceived," the current commander of the White Blade Guards asked emotionally. "You know, the Black Sand Collar forged information about the Sword of Disaster and then passed it on to Kaslan..."

Thales let out a breath and felt that mental fatigue began to invade him again.

No matter what lies ahead...

Please...

End it quickly.

"Come on." The one who answered the fallen star was the impatient Cohen. He was walking behind the team and his voice was a little loud.

"Your hypocritical former boss showed up in person to deal with us," the security officer mocked: "Hiding among the soldiers in the Black Sand Territory - he knocked me down with two punches."

"Then you should feel honored," Nikolai suddenly raised his head, suppressed his anger, and said coldly in the darkness: "Not everyone is qualified to withstand Kaslan's two punches."

Cohen frowned and was about to retort, but Raphael interrupted him.

"We were able to persuade Shake the Earth to help," Raphael narrowed his eyes: "Now we know how they tricked the city gates into opening quietly and without any blood."

Nicolai lowered his head and said nothing.

No one saw that his eyes were full of complicated meanings at this moment.

Thales's heart moved.

"Wait a minute, if Kaslan knew about this secret passage from the beginning," the prince muttered in the team, "then how come you still have a chance to sneak in?"

Nicolai raised his head.

But it was Cohen who answered.

"Perhaps I want to wait until all the White Blade Guards have arrived," the vigilance officer gritted his teeth and said, "Solve it again."

No one else spoke.

The atmosphere became very depressing.

"Look, they guarded us, first they waited for the Secret Division, and then they waited for the White Blade Guards," Cohen said before he finished speaking, and he said angrily: "Surrounding the point for reinforcements - is there any more vivid tactical case than this?

"

Nicolai punched the wall hard.

"Bang!" There was a muffled sound.

Even in the dark, everyone looked sideways.

The Fallen Star raised his head and exhaled.

Nicolai's eyes became cold again.

"Fuck you, Kaslan." The Fallen Star said coldly.

Raphael hummed softly, but the meaning was unclear.

At this moment.

"Well, maybe, outside of the argument..." Thales' voice suddenly interrupted, with a sense of fatigue in his words.

"What should we think about?"

The second prince said silently: "If the secret passage has only one exit."

Nicolai clenched his fist lightly.

The Fallen Star suddenly laughed.

"We have no choice," he said softly, "right?"

As a result, a group of people could only continue to walk nervously on the secret path in a strange atmosphere.

Dangerous unknowns await on the road ahead.

Head towards the equally mysterious exit.

Thales sighed slightly, but at this moment he could only abandon all distracting thoughts and concentrate on following the team forward.

The figure of another child moved next to him.

A soft voice whispered in his ear: "Tales."

"I can't escape, can I?"

Little Slippery's expression couldn't be seen clearly in the darkness, but Thales could hear that her voice was full of sadness and despair.

Thales sighed.

He was already feeling very annoyed, but now he really wasn't in the mood to comfort the little girl.

"Don't worry," Thales said absentmindedly: "Even if there is an ambush ahead, we will definitely have a way to escape..."

But Little Slippery's voice suddenly became louder.

"No!"

She seemed a little excited.

Thales was slightly startled.

"That's not what I'm talking about," she gasped in the darkness, her voice frightened, "I mean... they, they all found me, found me..."

"I, I can't escape, and I can't leave!"

The little naughty boy's reaction even made Nicolai and others who were talking on the other side couldn't help but look sideways.

Only then did Thales react and vaguely understood what the little slippery man was talking about.

What she means is...

Thales got close to Little Slippery,

The second prince tightened his breathing and felt Little Slippery's body rising and falling slightly beside him.

"They, they called me...Miss Walton..." Little Slippery spoke quietly in a breathy voice, trying his best to keep his body steady, but Thales could still feel the fear in her heart.

Thales' mood darkened.

"They won't let me go..." Little Slippery had already started to cry a little without realizing it.

That's right.

It was agreed in the butcher's shop: This little maid originally planned to sneak away quietly after escaping from danger.

but now……

Thales raised his head and glanced in the direction of Nikolai and the others.

The White Blades found her, the Scarlet Witch recognized her, and Rumba knew her.

King Nun left her not only a ring, an identity, but also a curse.

A curse that once you join, you cannot exit the game.

The prince felt sad in his heart.

Not only that.

Thales then thought of the present after the death of King Nunn.

There was chaos in Longxiao City.

Walton's future is at stake, and Dragon Spear in the Cloud may no longer be able to rule the city.

Exeter—the dragon kingdom that has been inherited for six hundred years is about to fall into an unknown whirlpool, with an uncertain future and uncertain fortunes.

Also, Lombard is leading his army and vassals to frame the crime of assassinating the king on Thales (although as a star prince, he is not completely innocent), and continues to carry out his actions in secret without anyone knowing.

conspiracy.

What does that hero want to do?

Where will he take Longxiao City, Exeter, and the two major powers in the Western Continent?

And these...

Thales turned his head and roughly made out the outline of the little maid in the darkness.
