Chapter 426: The Fall of Maiye City (Monthly Ticket Plus)

"What did you do?"

Tred and his companions had already been intrigued, even though they cursed Gervis for being extremely shameless.

But in their hearts they were envious, jealous and resentful, and they blamed God for not having such good things happen to them.

"Gvis used these twenty noble sons to go to Maiye City and exchange them for 16,000 gold coins! And he even escaped in the end!"

Under the expectant eyes of Trede and the others, Anlis finally said

"What? Sixteen thousand gold coins! Oh my God! What will it look like if so many gold coins are put together?"

Tremont and his companions were stunned when they heard this. They kept imagining the scene of tens of thousands of gold coins placed in front of them, and their mouths were almost watering.

"What a pity! Let this shameless Gervis escape!"

Several people were jealous and felt sorry that Gervis got away with it.

"Haha, I heard that although Gervis escaped, he did not return to the Principality of Jean's team. I heard that Gervis is likely still hiding in the territory of our Principality of Alban, maybe near us!"

Seeing the silly looks on the faces of the few people, Anlis said, "There's no need to joke."

"Really? Haha! If we can catch Gervis, we'll be rich!"

"Yes! By then, we can at least get three floors of gold coins, which means thousands of gold coins!"

Although Tres and the others knew that Anlis's last words were a joke, they still felt yearning. Only Gervis had a twitch of his lips.

"You guessed it right! I'm right in front of you!"

Next, several noble sons continued to talk about some interesting things, mostly Anlis showing off his superiority.

However, compared to country bumpkins like Tread, Anlis has much broader knowledge, so the others are happy to let Anlis tell some interesting stories.

…

That night, the moonlight was bright.

"We have to prepare to go back. The further we go into the heart of the Principality of Alban, the more teams of small nobles we will encounter, and the greater the risk of being exposed."

Knowing that the army of the Principality of Zee had already arrived at the city of Maiye, Gervis prepared to return.

It was already midnight, and the night was quiet. Tread and the others had gone to bed, and Gervis was ready to leave.

There were more than twenty guards who were descendants of nobles guarding the entrance of the hotel, so Gervis could only leave through the roof.

With a little circulation of his fighting spirit, Gervis flipped directly from the window to the roof of the hotel, and then walked quietly towards the camp where Ike and others were stationed.

The teams of several young nobles had more than 600 people in total. It was impossible for them all to be stationed in the town, so their camps were set up in the open spaces on both sides of the town's intersection.

In order to facilitate the evacuation of his own people, Gervis deliberately separated the camp from that of Tread and others by about a hundred meters.

"Sir! You are here!"

"Well, is everything packed?"

"Everything is packed!"

"Then let's go now!"

When setting up camp, Ike and the others had already put up the tent, but when they were about to leave, they did not put the tent down, so that it could be used as an obstacle to block the view of other camps.

As for whether or not he would be discovered by Tredd and the others tomorrow, Gervis no longer cared.

We can only find them tomorrow morning. By then, we will have run seventy or eighty miles away, and it will be impossible for them to catch up with us.

Afterwards, Gervis led his subordinates around to the main road from the side, and then quickly ran towards the direction of Maiye City.

Gervis originally thought that he would be able to return to the Principality of Zeon's main force safely, but he didn't know if he made too much money this time, even the boss Rongguang couldn't stand it.

Gervis and his companions had only been walking for more than ten minutes when they suddenly saw twinkling torches rising on the horizon ahead, like a winding fire dragon, stretching for several kilometers. This huge team was moving towards them.

"How could there be such a large army? Did they retreat from Maiye City? That's impossible! The Principality of Zeon's army has only been in Maiye City for a short time, how could they possibly break into the city!"

After seeing the huge team, Gervis was confused and uncertain. Fortunately, they did not march with torches, otherwise they would definitely be discovered by the other party.

"Everyone, go back the way you came. Let's go back to the camp and see what happens then!"

The team in front was getting closer and closer. Although he was a little hesitant, he was not sure whether he should hide by the roadside and wait for the team to pass.

But in the end, Gervis gave up.

Not to mention that the area was in full view and there was nowhere for more than 70 people to hide.

That is, once the team ahead arrives at the town, and Tred and the others become aware of his situation and think of something, he still won't be able to escape.

Therefore, it is better to go back and continue pretending, and act according to circumstances later.

Soon, Gervis and his group returned to the town, and Gervis returned to his room quietly.

More than twenty minutes later, the town became noisy, and the young nobles in the hotel also received reports from their subordinates.

Gervis was immediately awakened by Tredd and his companions, and they rushed out of the town together.

When they arrived outside the town, the large team had already arrived in the town.

When Gervis saw the situation of this team, he knew that his guess might come true.

These people really retreated from the Earldom of Jinmai, because many of the flags in the team belonged to the Jinmai family. Gervis had seen them when he first arrived in Maiye City.

"It's the Marquis of Lost!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After the vanguard of the team passed by, a middle-aged man with amazing momentum walked slowly in the rear, surrounded by hundreds of cavalrymen.

And behind him there was a luxurious carriage following, and no one knew who was sitting inside it.

When Anlis, the most knowledgeable among Gervis and others, saw this man, he immediately exclaimed in a low voice and revealed his identity.

"Lord Lost!"

Gervis' heart sank. This was the commander of Baiyan City, a man with the cultivation of a peak gold knight and the brother of King Hayden!

"Greetings, Lord Lost!"

When Lost rode up to Gervis and the others, Anlis was the first to speak and greeted him respectfully.

Tread and his companions were a beat slower, then quickly saluted and greeted them. Gervis was now playing the role of Harry, so of course he could only salute like them.

"Well, which family are you from? You actually recognized me!"

Seeing that Anlis could call out his name accurately, Lost couldn't help but look at Anlis and asked casually.

"Your Excellency, I am from the Wells family, and my uncle is the treasurer of His Majesty in the royal city!"

Anlis replied very respectfully.

"Oh, is Andrew your uncle?"

Lost nodded, but to him, Andrew was nothing, let alone his nephew.

So he just nodded calmly, then looked at Gervis and his group, and continued speaking calmly.

"Maiye City has fallen. The troops from the Principality of Jean will arrive soon. You need to speed up to get to the Royal City. Come with us!"

"Yes! Thank you, Lord Lost!"

Although the several young nobles were extremely shocked when they heard the news, they did not dare to act rashly in front of Lost. They suppressed the shock in their hearts and bowed and thanked him honestly.

Next, the team led by Gervis and others began to gather again and continued to move forward following Lost's team of more than 3,000 people.

Because the Principality of Zeon's team was chasing them closely, they had to travel day and night, and the team would not stop for a rest until the second half of the night.

In fact, Gervis really wanted to take the opportunity to sneak away and stop where he was to wait for the Principality of Zeon's team. Unfortunately, there were many rangers roaming in front and behind this team, and Gervis had no way to leave the team quietly.

More importantly, there are two golden knights in the team, so Gervis doesn't dare to act rashly.

Fortunately, the only thing that comforted Gervis was that he did not see any familiar faces in this team, such as Babette, Phoenix and others, otherwise he would probably be exposed.

Thanks to "Porcupine Peppa" for the reward!!!
