Anu never thought that she would be among the people coming this time.
The state of mind that had remained calm for a long time was touched again...
Seeing the Flying Dragon Group gradually descending, many soldiers who gathered around were able to see the people leading the team this time. Among them, Princess Seria's beautiful appearance attracted a lot of people's attention.
The leader of the team is actually a female general?
It doesn't look like it.
After leaving the capital of Jagun, few people have seen Princess Seriya again. Moreover, such royal women cannot appear on canvas. Ordinary people have no chance to see her true appearance and can only learn about this princess from bits and pieces of gossip.
Obviously, even any gossip is completely insignificant in front of the real person.
The soldiers rarely saw a woman with such temperament!
The moment Seria jumped off the flying dragon... she combined the beauty of a lady from a noble family with the heroic temperament of a female general. Coupled with her charming and slim outfit, many soldiers couldn't take their eyes off her, especially Anu at this time.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Seriya!" After Anu called out the other party's name, the soldiers around him all looked shocked.
Princess Seriya?
It turned out that Her Royal Highness the Princess came in person.
Since no news had been received before, everyone just thought that the person coming would be a general or something, but who knew it would be the legendary princess.
It turned out to be Her Royal Highness the Princess!
As Marquis Annu knelt down, all the soldiers around him knelt down.
"Long time no see, Anu." Seria did not call the other party by his title, but called his name affectionately.
Many years...
Even Anu hadn't heard such a name for many years.
For a brief moment, the story of the princess and the knight came to mind again. Many years ago, in the palace garden, under the moonlight, the two of them had once hidden on the grass in the garden like obsessed readers, reading those knight novels.
And after so many years... the princess is still the same princess, beautiful and charming, still living in the palace courtyard, but the knight is no longer the same knight!
"It's been a long time."
Anu lowered his head and said lightly.
The conversation between the two made the people around them look very strange...
One is the princess of the entire empire, and the other is a marquis on the border, but why does the scene feel like a long-awaited reunion?
And this feeling was so strong that even the soldiers around began to whisper, not daring to speak too loudly for fear of being heard.
However, this scene made Aiden and others who were watching on the other side unhappy. They stood up and spoke to Anu who had just stood up.
"Marquis Annu, we are here to help you investigate the sea ghost incident."
Although Aiden is the son of a minister and a noble himself, he does not have a title yet. In fact, his status is far inferior to that of Anu himself. It’s just that they both came from the capital and their families have high status, so Anu is very respectful to them.
"Who is this?"
Aiden raised his head and replied. "Aiden Ifri."
"Ifli?" Anu recalled that among the ministers in the imperial capital there was indeed a minister named Ifli, who was a big shot in charge of the reserve force of the academy.
Even in the city of Kesha, some wealthy families spent a lot of money to get close to Lord Ivli in order to enter the famous schools in the imperial capital, but they couldn't even reach the threshold.
Each of Jagong's ministers is equivalent to a grand duke, and even has more power than a duke... Due to various reasons that occurred in the previous generation, there are currently no princes in Jagong. These people are actually more like princes of different surnames, and are not people that local lords like himself can provoke.
"It turns out to be Brother Aiden." Anu said with a smile after a brief inner thought.
He really had no impression of these people, but they were able to say his name, which meant that at least they knew him.
Anu had only spent some time in the capital during his childhood, and was unfamiliar with the aristocratic circles in that area...
"I have asked someone to prepare for this matter. Please come with me." Anu calmed down his excitement and took the lead in front of everyone to prepare to leave.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed that among the pterosaurs that followed, some had huge iron barrels tied on their backs!
"Is that... a cannon?"
Although the city of Kosha is located on the southeastern edge of Jagun, the local Marquis Anu is well-informed. These things are most commonly found in the equipment of the Lugang army.
"Yes, I borrowed this from my big brother Sean. I hope it can be useful in this ghost investigation."
"Prince Sean?"
Anu looked at the person he admired most in his youth with confusion, and had a vague feeling in his heart.
This time, the other party might be looking for me for more than just investigating the ghost incident...
Everyone followed Anu to the Marquis's house in Kosha City.
Here, Anu had people prepare all the reports about the ghost incidents and the testimonies of the witnesses early on. Everything was prepared in advance, and a lot of the intelligence was even obtained at the cost of his own soldiers' lives.
"It's all here. These are records of ghost incidents... In order to prevent panic among coastal residents, I evacuated some residents. Even for those who cannot leave, soldiers were sent to limit their frequency of going out to sea. They are absolutely not allowed to go out in foggy weather. Although there has been no foggy weather recently, I am still worried that there will be the next batch of victims." Anu said.
The place where the ghost incident occurred is some distance away from the city of Kesha, in a small village on the edge of the coastline.
Jagun has a long coastline, but there are not many villages, mainly because transportation is inconvenient, so most people still live in towns. Moreover, villages need to purchase supplies from cities. If traveling merchants cannot reach a place, the village will quickly disappear.
Therefore, there are requirements for the existence of these villages.
Although it's rare, once this problem occurs, it can easily cause panic in other places...
Moreover, the cause of this incident has not been found yet.
Everyone was saying that the ghost was slowly moving from the east to the southeast, and if it went any further, it might reach Lukang directly.
You know, Lugang's status is very important to the country...
This is also the reason why Anu asked for help from the capital this time.
However, Seria, who had been carefully reading the intelligence, found suspicious points in many places and pointed to one of them and asked.
"Ghosts are always green? Why do people say they see their loved ones? If it's late at night, the green color won't make it clear."
