"You're thinking too much, and I actually have other reasons for doing this."

Jiang Yan just smiled slightly about Melty's concerns, as if he was not worried about this problem at all.

[Other reason?] Melty was confused and curious about Jiang Yan's words.

"You will know then." Jiang Yan's smile contained a bit of mystery, but he did not explain in more detail.

Hearing him say this, Melty was very sensible and stopped asking questions.

After resolving the sudden attack, Prince Henry obviously trusted Melty more. Although he was still doubtful about whether there were hidden dangers in the camp, since Melty had already said that,

He doesn't want to continue to worry about this matter.

If Prince Henry showed this doubt, it would not be conducive to his relationship with the remaining White Rose Knights. If the protected person and the person who guarded him were still suspicious of each other, then who would be

None of them will be beneficial. The situation of the White Rose Team is not very good at all, so it is better not to continue increasing the difficulty.

Perhaps, this is also one of the difficulties of the trial mission. When there are betrayers one after another in the team, all the extraordinary powers are sealed, and the trialists themselves may not be able to trust the entire team anymore. In this state

, the difficulty of execution of tasks will naturally become more stringent.

However, with Jiang Yan helping to cheat, Melty would not be bothered by this problem. Having said that, the difficulty of the task would not be reduced too much. After all, even Melty would not think about it all.

But the NPCs in the team couldn't be as at ease as hers.

Although these people are only NPCs that are merciless in different data spaces, they are also real souls with flesh and blood. They have their own personal will, thinking and emotions, and logical judgment abilities. Even if the memory is tampered with, it does not mean their thinking ability

Also under control.

In other words, without intentional interference in the alien data space, the thoughts of these people are in line with normal people and will produce corresponding emotions for various reasons.

The suspicion and worries are just a very normal phenomenon now.

Fortunately, although there were signs of unstable people among the team, the atmosphere in the camp quickly returned to normal on the surface with Melty in charge.

It has to be said that having a peerless strong man like Melti in charge has really brought these White Rose Knights a considerable sense of security.

It's not in vain that Melty's high-profile performances before.

Next, no accident happened. It lasted for a few hours. As the time approached the evening, the sun was approaching the hillside to the west.

Several hours have passed, and Melty, who had already collected the needed medicinal materials and prepared the spare medicine, was sitting quietly in the camp, closing her eyes to rest, resting her mind and resting her life.

physical strength.

The others in the camp were busy with their own affairs and were very sensible and did not come to disturb her.

Until one moment, Melty suddenly opened her eyes.

"Here you come."

She stood up from the grass and looked to the east, where it was the direction of the frontier city.

"What's wrong?" Several knights nearby were shocked when they heard Meltie's words not deliberately concealed. They immediately shook their energy, vigilantly grasped the weapon at hand, and asked Meltie.

"Don't be nervous, it's not the enemy, it's just Captain Roth and the others are back."

Waving his hand and dispelling the excessive tension of the knights, Melty walked to the edge of the camp and waited quietly.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, the reed grass outside the camp shaking, and then the three men pushed away the dense reeds with both hands and walked into the camp.

"team leader!"

"Great, you guys are finally back!"

After recognizing the three, the knights in the camp surrounded them with joy.

"Everyone, it's better for everyone to be fine." Roths laughed and greeted them, but soon he frowned.

"Are everyone here?"

"Yes, captain, is there anything wrong?" one of the knights replied.

"Then, why are there two people missing...Glad and Morz?" Rotters' face darkened and his eyes were sharp.

"..." The White Rose Knights in the camp looked at each other, not knowing how to answer this question for a moment.

The comrades who had been with him for decades actually betrayed. This was a huge blow to their generation of old people in the White Rose Knights. Even though several hours have passed, they are in the camp.

The knights still couldn't let go.

Even if they were like this, let alone Roth, who was the oldest among them.

The knights didn't know how to speak, but Melty didn't care too much and said directly: "Those two people betrayed and had been killed by me for their ill-conspiracy against His Highness."

"What?!" Roths glared at Meltie in shock and looked at Meltie, but looking at Meltie's face that was always calm, he quickly calmed down again.

Taking a deep breath, Rotes lowered his voice and said slowly: "Don't mind telling me? What's going on?"

"I'll explain it." At this time, Prince Henry walked up and spoke with a cold face.

After spending a few minutes, Roths finally understood the whole story.

"I'm really sorry, Your Highness, I didn't expect that this kind of thing happened to my subordinates again. It was all caused by my dereliction of duty." Rots knelt down to Prince Henry without hesitation and expressed his apology.

Prince Henry was still a little gloomy because he remembered his previous experience of falling into danger, but at this moment, seeing Roths' sincere apology, most of his anger and dissatisfaction could not help but dissipate.

"Get up, Rothsch, you don't have to do this, I know, it's not your fault. Let it end here on this matter. There are more important things to do now, right?"

Prince Henry waved his hand and signaled that he would not pursue the matter again.

"Yes." Roths responded respectfully, then stood up.

"Fortunately, after several obscure investigations, we finally found the address of the stronghold, met the messenger of the allied kingdom, and successfully reached a preliminary unification intention with him. He was willing to

Help us contact the senior leaders of the allies at our higher level and let the top leaders of the allies conduct more specific consultations and negotiations with us on the cooperation plans between the two sides."

"Next, the Allied Congress sent special personnel to pick us up, and only needed to wait for about a day. Before that, the other party invited us to rest in the city and wait for the arrival of the receiving troops."

"In addition, I asked Doron to explore the stronghold mentioned by His Highness the Prince, and did make some discoveries. However, because I was afraid of attracting the attention of the Grand Duke forces on the border in the city, I did not go to investigate the stronghold in broad daylight.

, it was just a distance to confirm the authenticity of the address. We were preparing to wait until dark, and gather more people to explore the stronghold."

"Okay! Good job, Roths." Prince Henry couldn't help but feel happy.

"No further ado, Your Highness, it's almost dark. If you really wait until it's dark, the number of people entering and leaving the city gate will become much smaller than that during the day. If you wait until you enter the city at that time, it will become more conspicuous.

. ""

Roths looked up at the orange-red sunset that was gradually falling in the west and said, "It's just right now. Many people who go out to work choose to return to the city at this time. The frequency of people coming and going at the gate is very high.

If you get mixed in, it will be even less likely to attract attention.”

Rots pointed outside the camp and said, "Dorun and I have purchased the carriages and clothes that we need. Now we will park outside the camp. Next, just change your clothes and give the necessary tribute.

Just move onto the carriage.”

"Then do what you said." Prince Henry nodded, without any objection to this.

Just as Roths was about to summon the knights to start the action, Melty suddenly came to him and asked, "Are you sure that the so-called messengers of the Allies? And, the stronghold in the city,

Didn't you really find any problems?"

"What's wrong?" Roths was stunned and asked strangely.

"The two rebels before revealed a very important information." Melty's expression became solemn, and said, "The empire has discovered the strongholds arranged by the previous kings through some unknown means.

Part of it. I suspect...that stronghold in the frontier city may have been exposed."

"There is such a thing?" Roths was shocked.

"Yes, this was told by the two traitors just now when they threatened me. Melti should have heard it at that time." Prince Henry nodded and confirmed Melti's words.

"If this is the case, it's really possible." Rotes's face also became solemn.

After all, the Empire had long predicted their course of action, and according to common sense, when it was known in advance that the kings of the Kingdom had arranged such strongholds, Prince Henry led to the frontier city, and the existing information of the empire's senior management.

Naturally, they would also doubt that there is something more important to Prince Henry in the frontier city, and then they would also think of the speculations such as the strongholds left by the previous kings of Country A in the frontier city.

Although he was prepared for Melty's words, Rotes did not intend to cancel the action plan.

There may be problems with the strongholds in the Frontier City, but it is also very likely that there is no problem. It is really not worth giving up a stronghold just because of an unconfirmed conjecture.

So in the end, Rothus planned to lead people to really investigate the situation of the stronghold after dark.

The group was easy to clean up and changed their clothes, but not all the staff were equipped to leave the camp and go to the city.

After all, their armor, weapons and horses must be kept, so as to avoid unnecessary attention due to their different identities. Therefore, some people must stay and take care of these.

Soon, Rottes screened the candidates for members who needed to enter the city with him.

Among them, Melty, Prince Henry and the Princess must go to the city with the team. Eight White Rose Knights were also following along. The remaining seven people were left behind in the camp.

The group boarded the carriage disguised as an ordinary farm carriage and walked towards the frontier city.

Originally, Merti was very cautious and vigilant, because at such times, the later the task, the more difficult the task will be.

Melty even boldly guessed that the so-called messenger of the ally might have something wrong, such as having been found and bought by the empire and betrayed everyone, but in fact, the progress of things went unexpectedly.

After successfully passing the inspection at the city gate, he successfully checked into the hotel booked by the Allied Envoy to help. He also successfully arrived near the takeout base again after dark and when it was late at night.

"Stop." In the darkness, Melty's low voice suddenly rang.

At this moment, she, Roths and two knights, Doron and Buck, came to the vicinity of the city stronghold they were exploring during the day. After just entering the area of ​​two hundred meters around this stronghold, Mei
