Chapter 144 Missing Nancy and Ulysses

With Tom's help, the army quickly swept through the abandoned avenue, and then the deputy took over Safi's command, and Safi returned to the palace to report the situation to Fred.

Fred was also waiting for her at the palace, and Safi reported all the situation in detail.

"It sounds like it went very smoothly." Fred nodded after hearing this, "Thank you for your hard work."

Is it hard... I don't think so. She just feels anxious. This anxiety is the main culprit that makes her suffer.

Seeing that Safi's mood was not right, Fred knew that the knot in her heart had not been untied. He sighed softly, stepped forward and put his arm around her shoulders: "Are you okay?"

There was concern in his eyes, but he was cautious, as if he was afraid that his questions would touch Safi's sadness.

Safi was much stronger than he saw. The negative emotions only disturbed her for a while, but were quickly suppressed by her. She smiled at Fred: "I'm fine, Your Highness doesn't need to worry about me."

Fred looked at Safi carefully and worriedly, and then he was relieved after making sure that Safi was not forcing a smile, and comforted: "Yuri and the others will be back soon, and they will be able to find out their movements by then.

We will definitely give them the punishment they deserve."

I hope so.

However, after one day and one night, Ulysses and Nancy disappeared, and none of the people who followed Ulysses and Nancy out of the city returned.

The disappearance of the children of two nobles was not a small matter. Even Fred could not handle such a big matter, so the matter was naturally reported to the emperor.

The emperor immediately invited Ulysses and Nancy's elders over to discuss what to do next.

The person who came to Ulysses' house was Ulysses' grandmother, the emperor's aunt, and the founder of the intelligence department. She had already handed over all the powers to Ulysses, but she never thought that this time she would be alarmed.

At Nancy's house, the leader of the knights came.

"Auntie, sir," Fred saluted the two elders with some shame, "this matter is my fault. I didn't dispatch good manpower."

The gray-haired Grand Duchess shook her head to stop Fred's next words. Although she was old, she could still see the courage and vigor when she founded the intelligence department: "No need to apologize. As a noble, you should take the lead in danger.

He was the one who suffered it, and it’s all because that bastard didn’t study hard and didn’t even know how to use magic to protect himself.”

Although she was cursing, everyone could tell that the Grand Duchess loved her grandson, and Fred felt even more sorry.

The leader of the knights spoke. Perhaps he had seen too many strong winds and waves. Even if his daughter disappeared, he did not see any panic: "Master Ulysses and my daughter disappeared together. As long as they don't get separated, there will be no chance of survival."

The probability is very high.”

These two people, Nancy can fight, Ulysses can provide treatment, and they can complement each other together, so the chance of their lives being in danger is not high.

But the key question now is who attacked them and for what purpose.

Fred notified Nannuo as soon as the accident happened and asked him to investigate along the route of Ulysses and Nancy. Now that the investigation results have been obtained, Nannuo was asked to make a report.

"Ulysses and Nancy were ambushed," Nannuo reported the results of his investigation. "They sensed some evidence and entered the forest. Then they were caught off guard. Except for the two of them, everyone with them

Everyone else is dead."

The group leader snorted coldly: "How dare you enter the woods? You are quite brave."

Complex terrain like woods is too easy to create ambushes. Under normal circumstances, you should be more cautious when you see woods ahead, at least you shouldn't walk directly into them rashly.

Nannuo had to say something fair for his sister. After all, Nancy was taught by the Knights just like him. She should understand this very well: "I believe Nancy will not be so reckless. They should be sure.

No one dares to go deep into the woods, and we found traces of dark magic in the woods."

If the demons wanted to hide, it would be difficult to detect them without some special means. It can only be said that Nancy and the others were still inexperienced and did not think of this.

However, sometimes one mistake can be fatal.

Fred asked: "Can we find any trace of them?"

Nannuo shook his head: "The traces were wiped clean. It's impossible to tell from which direction they escaped."

"Where is the person who ambushed them? Can you find out who it is?"

Nannuo still shook his head. Not only the traces of Nancy and Ulysses were erased, but the traces of other people also disappeared without a trace.

Should I say that he deserves to be a demon? In terms of hiding himself, humans are far behind him.

"Bring the map." The leader of the knights ordered Nannuo.

A map depicting the specific terrain near the royal city was unfolded on the table, and the leader of the knights' eyes accurately focused on the woods.

"According to the traces, Ulysses and Nancy entered the woods from the east," Nannuo drew an arrow on the map, representing the direction of Nancy's movement, "and then encountered an ambush here." He said.

Draw an "X" mark.

The mark point "

The leader of the Knights simulated the situation at that time: "Nancy and the others traced the area and found some traces. The traces pointed to the woods. After preliminary exploration, they judged that they could move forward in the woods, so they walked into the woods.

They entered the woods, and at this time the demons were already waiting for them. After cutting off their escape route, they were caught off guard. At present, we have also found the remains of Nancy and Ulysses. Assuming for the time being that they are still alive, then

Where would they be now?"

"Is it possible that he was taken away by the demons?" Fred asked.

"It's unlikely," the leader shook his head, "Both Nancy and Ulysses are a certain threat to them. Unless they can guarantee that they can absolutely control them, it's better to kill them directly, and

Nancy is trained and she will definitely find a way to leave clues, but we found no such traces."

Since they were not caught, so long means they escaped, so which direction will they escape from?

Nan Nuo pointed his finger on the "X" mark, moved slowly to the southwest for a distance, and pointed deep in the woods: "If I remember correctly, this area was once haunted by monsters. If

I'm Nancy, and I'll take a gamble."

The existence of Warcraft in this area is not a secret. Not to mention the nobles, even the common people know it. However, although Warcraft has a certain ability to use magic, it is still a beast in nature. Most of the time, it just stays within its own territory and does not know how to use magic.

It came out to hurt people, so Wangcheng did not send anyone to deal with this monster.

This is indeed Nancy's way of doing things. Instead of being trapped or watching with no hope of breaking through the siege, it is better to break the boat and tear a hole through the most impossible path.
