"What happened?" Qingkong asked softly, but there was no response.
The maids began to frantically search for clothes for Princess Vanessa from a bottle of suitcase in the corner, and the princess had already sat in front of the mirror, took off the white hat of the medical girl, let down the long orange hair, and put it on another maid's side. Start grooming with help.
Seeing the somewhat chaotic scene, Qingkong decided to ask the maid for his clothes back after being at a loss for a while, changed his expensive attire, and then returned to the Sentinel Hotel.
However, before the girl's idea could be implemented, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, accompanied by the sound of swords being sold out. Qing Kong suddenly felt nervous for some reason, and reflexively jumped behind the half-folded screen on one side, behind the pile of boxes for clothes...

At this time, the canvas at the entrance of the tent was suddenly lifted—
A tall and burly man appeared in the center of the line of sight. He had exquisite features, a straight nose, raised eyebrows, and short light golden hair shining against the light golden eyes. He was wearing an exquisite and close-fitting matte gold armor, with a group of eagle logos carved on his shoulder blades, and two long swords each half a person's height, crossed and hung on his back.
"How courageous! How dare you trespass into the royal family's camp, who came?!" The maids serving on both sides of Princess Vanessa immediately took two steps forward, blocking the figure of the lord with their bodies, and shouted at the comer .
"My own people, the guards who came to welcome Princess Vanessa to the Apocalypse King City just heard that assassins broke into here, and I was particularly worried about the safety of Her Royal Highness, so I took the liberty to come to support." The visitor smiled and responded calmly .
At this time, the soldiers of Dolly's Legion seemed to have surrounded the lord's tent, and dense figures could be seen outside the tent under the light of the fire, but none of the guards of Dolly's Legion were able to enter the tent to guard, and walked into the two places instead. The platoon consisted of six soldiers in gold and silver armor, and one could tell at a glance that they were the so-called guards that broke in with the knights in dumb gold armor.
The atmosphere was still tense, but the golden armored knight smiled like a spring breeze, and greeted Princess Dolly who was separated by two maids: "Your Highness, I haven't seen you for a long time. I don't know if everything is all right. This trip is going smoothly ?”
"Everything is going well. Although I ran into a bunch of little thieves who didn't know what to do, they were dealt with properly. I arrived here without any surprises. After you, the Welsh King Rider, arrived, the next journey will be smoother and safer. , I am very happy and grateful." Princess Vanessa exhaled calmly, stood up, bypassed the cover of the maid, walked up to the blond man and stretched out his right hand gracefully, the knight immediately knelt down, Holding her slender fingers in both hands, he kissed the back of her hand lightly.
Hiding in a corner and watching the clear sky secretly, he couldn't help but look curiously at this man called Welsh King Knight. His movements are elegant and noble, and his attire is very good. He must be a high-ranking official, but he doesn't know the so-called " What is the position of the "Golden Rider"... When the girl's eyes swept across his face bowing his head, she seemed to meet the man's squinting glance back. Feeling tight, he hurriedly moved his eyes away, completely hiding himself in the shadows.
After the salute, Wells King stood up and said politely: "When the prince appointed me to meet him, he specially asked me to bring the best troops in the Royal Forest Army, and told me to take care of you. I didn't expect that just now It was a coincidence that I heard about your attack on the way here. Since Her Royal Highness is in danger on the land of King Keen, it is impossible for the imperial army led by Wells to sit idly by here, assassin We will take over the investigation, and please rest assured, Princess Vanessa, we will do our best to track down the murderer."
Her Royal Highness was silent for two seconds, and immediately said with an official smile: "The heroism of the Imperial Forest Army is known everywhere, but you and the soldiers must be exhausted after traveling all the way all night. The assassination matter is actually not a serious problem, it has been resolved Seven or eight minutes later, the thief has been entangled by the water resentment poisonous snake, and he must die soon. My guards will find his body soon, and it will be settled after a little treatment. This is such a trivial matter, so I won’t bother you The elite troops have taken their troubles."
Wells bent his light golden eyes, and returned an equally polite smile: "This time, everything is just to solve problems for Her Royal Highness, and to ensure that everything is comprehensive. No matter how big or small, I will do everything related to your safety. Your Highness, please do not You're welcome."
Just as he was talking, there was a report from behind, and then a guard cavalry came in, bowed to Wells, gave a half-length salute, and reported: "Master Jinqi, the assassin's body has been released from the tunnel." It was dragged out, and has been sent back to the army for investigation and research, and I hereby report to you."
"Very well, it seems that everything is going well. This matter must be investigated carefully, and those who attempt to murder Her Royal Highness must not be let go." Following Wells' response, the soldiers who came to report were ordered to retreat.
At this time, Princess Vanessa raised her right hand to cover her temple, and said in a weak tone: "There are too many strange things that happened in this day, I can't help but have a headache. What is the important matter, how about we discuss it when we set off together tomorrow?"
Wells smiled amusedly, but couldn't help but replied with a hint of slyness: "Looking at the strange outfit of Her Royal Highness, I can tell that you must be very tired today with all your efforts to deal with various situations. Please rest at ease. Tomorrow Halfway through the hour, I'll come to bother you when you're ready to march." As he spoke, he led a group of six imperial guards back with a smile on his face.

When they walked out of the camp completely, Princess Vanessa couldn't help but let out a heavy breath.
This action of the princess made Qing Kong who had just come out from behind the screen unconsciously feel puzzled, hesitated for two seconds, she still couldn't hold back, stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness, what is this Welsh King Knight?" What is the background? Is the Imperial Forest Army the king's army? It seems very powerful."
After hearing her question, Vanessa couldn't help but smile slightly: "So you don't even know this—that just now is the eldest son of the Rafal family who is the most powerful in today's Keen Continent, and the owner of Rainbow Moon Castle." The youngest son of the lord of S Rafal; the queen of King Keen, the wife of Tyras, the younger brother of Claudia Rafal and Nibel Rafal, the Hand of the King; The head of the Imperial Forest Army, known as the Golden Knight, Wells Rafal. The Imperial Forest Army is the most elite force in the entire Keen Kingdom, with three management positions: the Golden Knight, the Silver Knight, and the Bronze Knight. Set up different legions, holding the military power of Keen's absolute strength."
"Sounds really amazing." Qing Kong couldn't help but sigh.
But in exchange for a snort from Princess Vanessa: "Of course the Rafal family is powerful, Wells holds the military power, Nibel is in power, and Claudia is in the back seat, Es Rafal The lord is sitting in the Rainbow Valley rich in resources, and the Rainbow Moon Castle is majestic and prosperous, not only blessed by the Rainbow Moon Sacred Stone, but also the guardian prophet Alshah sits in the town, and the entire Keen Continent only needs to be renamed Rafael."
At this moment, Qing Kong finally understood the different emotions in Her Royal Highness's words—there was meaning in those words. She was startled and wondered: [Could it be that the assassin tonight was sent by Wells? ]
The girl was still thinking about it, but Princess Vanessa suddenly asked: "Qing Kong, I want you to accompany me for a while. Not only do I need to find out who the person who tried to kill me is, but I also need to get solid evidence. , Hold the chips to ensure your own safety."
The princess' request was reasonable and related to a woman's life and death, so it was hard to refuse with Qing Kong's character. But she also understands the pros and cons of it. If she is not careful, she will put herself in extreme danger, and in this way, the plan to find Nolan and rescue Luna will have to be postponed... She can't shake her doubts.
The princess saw that she had something on her mind, and immediately promised: "If you assist me in investigating this matter, you will be rewarded with glory and wealth, and I will grant you a wish. As long as I am within my ability, I will help you." reached."
Having said that, Qingkong once again fell into a state of being unable to help—since the princess had promised her a condition, she thought that she might be able to exchange information with Nolan and Luna, which would kill two birds with one stone.
So, she nodded slightly and asked, "Then... What should I do next?"
"Tomorrow morning, Wells will lead the army to accompany me to the Royal City. You will go with me as a medical girl. If necessary, you can switch identities with me and act as my substitute."
"But... I still have three companions, and I still need to assist my friend to send a letter to King Terras..." Leoria's entrustment came back to his mind at this moment, and Qingkong recalled that crucial letter It was still in the hands of Princess Vanessa, and was about to ask for it back, but the princess spoke first.
"I know that letter must be very important to you, but have you ever thought about how the Apocalypse City is tightly guarded, and King Terras is so honorable, how can ordinary civilians just see it? Without my help, you The task of delivering letters is bound to be difficult." Princess Vanessa said here, she pondered for a moment, sighed lightly, and continued, "I can take another friend of yours to enter the Apocalypse King City, remember, You can only bring one—but, you have to keep the agreement between us strictly secret, can you do it?"
Qingkong met the princess' sharp eyes suddenly, was shocked by her aura for a moment, and nodded slightly: "Yes."
Her Royal Highness immediately explained: "Okay, then you can change into the clothes of a doctor girl and go back to the hotel to find him. You can sleep peacefully in the hotel tonight. Tomorrow morning, you bring that friend back to me, and I will arrange his disguise." , and help you deliver the letter to King Terras."
