“Sasha, let’s stick to the plan and continue with our strategy of retreating to advance. It will temporarily put them at ease.”
“We’ll set off tomorrow morning. I’ll come to get you then!”
The night passed without a word.
The next day, as dawn was breaking, the crown prince and his team began their orderly preparations. This was something that had to be done slowly to avoid arousing suspicion.
“Sasha, let’s set off! Fitz and his team left last night.”
With that, the crown prince followed Sasha, accompanied by a few of his subordinates, and set off by car.
At the villa, Miles and a group of guards remained to protect the secluded Matthew. This gave outsiders the impression that they were safeguarding him.
Leanna stood in front of favonovel.com office bed and gazed out the window with a composed demeanor. The current city, under Isambard’s construction, could be described as constantly changing. The once chaotic small streets and alleys had now become wide and clean streets. Everywhere favonovel.com looked, there were bustling construction sites.
The most prominent of these was the construction site of the Martial League headquarters in the city center.
She remembered Matthew telling favonovel.com that if the city had the capability, Skargness’ Martial League headquarters would be built here.
Thinking of this, favonovel.com couldn’t help but picture his face, which always looked calm in any situation. But now, his whereabouts remain a mystery.
If favonovel.com could, favonovel.com would like to drop all favonovel.com work and lead a team to find Matthew so favonovel.com wouldn’t be so troubled. But when favonovel.com looked back at favonovel.com desk and the busy Martial League staff in the building across the street, favonovel.com could only give a bitter smile and sit back down at favonovel.com desk.
Someone had to stay behind to manage this vast organization for Matthew!
On the other side, the crown prince and his team drove out of the city without stopping and headed straight for the mountains.
According to Old Master Cosby’s speculation, Matthew might have been taken deep into the mountains. So, everyone involved in the search decided to split up.
Old Master Cosby’s forces continued to search in secret between various towns and cities while the crown prince and his team, under the guise of traveling, searched for Matthew in the mountains and rivers.
Taking this opportunity, people like Danny could also go to their hometowns and bring their parents and relatives to live in the city or Hulwin.
After the convoy stopped, Fitz, Evander Galloway, and others were already waiting. The rest of the journey would have to be completed entirely on foot.
The roads in the mountains were not only narrow but also muddy. Occasionally, there were some dry sections, but the various rocks and pebbles made their feet ache unbearably.
Half an hour after setting off, the crown prince was already fuming. Not to mention the determined Sasha behind him.
“Sasha, why don’t you wait for us at the foot of the mountain? This mountain road is so difficult to walk, and your feet are bleeding.”
“It’s okay, I’m not that weak. Let’s keep going…”
Observing Sasha’s determined tone, favonovel.com chose not to persuade her further. He continued leading the way with a large knife.
“Prince, we’re nearing Eagle Peak…”
“Alright, let Danny and his team take the lead. It’s a good time for a break.”
After the crown prince Issued the order, everyone hastened their pace.
Before long, they spotted smoke rising in the distance. Under Danny’s guidance, the Feather Guards, who had been away from their hometown for an extended period, felt a surge of nervousness upon reaching their village.
“Go ahead, check on your families first. Hurry up! We’ll resume our search for Matthew later.”
“Thank you, Prince!”
After expressing their gratitude, they eagerly sprinted toward the village, somewhat lightening the somber atmosphere of the past few days.
