Once all the players received the mission, Su Yu led them towards the gate of the Royal Palace.

Upon reaching the palace gate, Su Yu asked the players to wait there while he himself followed Keerderon into the palace.

“Keerderon, how are the preparations for the princess’s travel convoy going?” Su Yu asked Keerderon while they were on their way to the main hall.

Keerderon responded respectfully: “Master Nemesis, the convoy is ready and will set out shortly.”

“Hmm.” Su Yu nodded slightly without further discussion.

A few minutes later, five extravagantly decorated carriages adorned with royal crests swiftly exited from a side gate of the palace.

Also present was a personal guard of a hundred Holy Knights dedicated to the princess.

In these five carriages, the first one was occupied by Xi’er, the foreign minister responsible for negotiations;

The second was occupied by the Seventh Order Shepherd in the Clouds, Xi Fan;

The third one at the centre was, of course, for the princess;

The last two were filled with miscellaneous items and supplies.

The princess was traveling light this time for a quick there-and-back, so her hundred-strong guard was also equipped with horses, as well as food and drink for seven days.

Su Yu was sharing the third carriage with the princess.

After the convoy left the palace, Su Yu sent a message in the chat room, instructing the nine guild leaders to follow with their players.

The guild leaders promptly notified the players present in the field.

Everyone quickly summoned their mounts to follow the princess’s convoy.

A small portion of the players’ mounts were from a hidden mission in the newbie village, while others had rented or bought common horses from the city’s stable.

Moreover, everyone present was a seasoned gamer, all aware of the importance of a mount and had immediate procured one upon entering the city. There was no one without a mount.

Leading the way was the princess’s convoy, while nearly a thousand players followed behind, marching grandly towards the north city gate.

Su Yu was sitting face-to-face with the princess on the third carriage.

The players certainly saw him and couldn’t help but feel a mixture of emotions:

“Look at Master Nemesis, sitting in the carriage and having close contact with the princess Ioli. We can only follow from far behind. The princess Ioli didn’t even spare us a glance!”

“Sigh, tell me about it.”

“Be content! According to the description of the scenario campaign, we are here to ‘assist Nemesis.’ Perhaps, in the NPCs’ eyes, we are just irrelevant weeds brought by Nemesis.”

“Believe in yourself, delete the ‘perhaps,’ we are indeed irrelevant weeds.”

“Forget about that, just perform well in the upcoming scenario battle. We might catch the eye of some NPCs, leading to some hidden missions.” The players were chatting and making their way at the same time.

Meanwhile, the princess was also conversing with Su Yu.

“The adventurers you recruited seem quite energetic.”

Princess Alyssa cast a backward glance at this group of adventurers from beyond.

These adventurers were all above the first level, their equipment was pretty decent, and their number was almost a thousand. Collectively, they formed a considerable force.

“Nemesis must have spent a lot of money recruiting them. It’s commendable to have such loyal subjects at this critical time.” The princess thought to herself. “Ding! The favorability of [Princess Alyssa] towards you +1.”

Su Yu, after experiencing the explosive increment of favorability points from Tina, was hardly moved by this single point increase.

Keeping his expression constant, Su Yu courteously said: “Your Highness, according to the signs from the stars I divined last night, the forces of Duke Landilus will disguise themselves as bandits to attack your convoy.”

“Landilus? How dare he! Doesn’t he know that Master Xi Fan is with my convoy?”

“What if they sent someone to distract Xi Fan?” Su Yu looked into the princess’s eyes.

“This…’

The princess’s expression turned serious: “Where will these rebels attack us?”

“Giant Wood Canyon, Your Highness.”

Twenty minutes game time later, at the Giant Wood Canyon.

“Everybody get ready! We have now reached the Giant Wood Canyon,” Snow leopard shouted loudly.

Meanwhile, in the chat room, the guild leaders were making their final deployments.

The entire team of players formed into a round defensive formation, with tanks on the outermost layer and assassins and DPS warriors scattered in their midst.

Archers and mages stood in the second layer, protecting the fragile healers in the innermost circle.

The Red-Eyed Black Dragon was brimming with confidence, saying in the chat room, “This is our first battle under the noses of the NPCs! We must perform well and not let the NPCs look down on us!”

Shepherd in the Clouds: “NPC? Just a string of data. If you take it seriously, you’ve lost.”

Snow Leopard: “No, no. They’re more than just a string of data. You need to listen more, watch more, observe more before jumping to conclusions.”

Shepherd in the Clouds: “Really…is that so?”

Of course, Shepherd in the Clouds knew what kind of organization Snow Leopard’s “related department” was. They exuded the qualities of iron-blooded soldiers, so anyone with half a brain would know what they were about. With Snow Leopard’s words, Shepherd in the Clouds immediately believed him most of the way.

Could it be… this game hides some big secret?

While he was contemplating, the princess’s convoy already entered the Giant Wood Canyon.

Suddenly, killing shouts erupted from the hillsides on both sides!

Kill!

Kill them!

Countless regular troops disguised as bandits charged down from the hills on both sides of the canyon.

At the same time, layers of area spells appeared in the sky above the convoy. If these spells all came crashing down, the convoy would be smashed to pieces in an instant.

Of course, Xi Fan was prepared.

“The Curtain of Shadow!”

With a light wave of his dark purple staff, the tier-six defensive spell The Curtain of Shadow was released!

The Curtain of Shadow instantly expanded to a diameter of nearly a hundred meters, enveloping the entire convoy.

The area magic from the sky fell on The Curtain of Shadow and was quickly nullified, not even leaving a ripple of magic.

At tms moment.

“Xi Fan, your opponent is me!”

A blinding holy light flew down from the clouds, striking directly at the peak of the canyon, shattering half the peak.

Within the scattered debris, a female Holy Knight dressed in golden armor holding a double-handed sword, pointed the sword’s tip towards Xi Fan.

“Haha, I wondered who it was. So, it’s you, Madeline!”

Transforming into a shadow, Xi Fan flew towards Madeline. The gold and black figures collided in the sky, causing a series of deafening explosions.

Meanwhile, the players swiftly moved into action, shielding the entire convoy in the middle.

They formed the previous round defensive formation, with tanks on the outside and ranged professions and healers on the inside.

Although The Curtain of Shadow can block magical attacks, it cannot prevent physical intrusions.

The “bandits” stepped into The Curtain of Shadow one by one, launching an attack on the players inside.

Hey!

The tanks charged forward, using their sturdy bodies to withstand the onslaught of the bandits.

The mages and archers, under the command of their respective guild leaders, targeted the AoE wherever possible, focusing fire on single target bandits if not.

The healers also raised their staffs, casting rays of healing light towards the wounded players at the front.

The power level of the bandits wasn’t high, with ordinary bandits being between level 10 and 20. Under the concentrated fire of the players, they were quickly defeated.

There were over level 30 and even level 50 bandits among them who, after killing a batch of players, charged into the formation, engaging in battle with the princess’s personal guard.

The defeated players patiently waited for one minute to resurrect beside Su Yu, before diving back into the battle.

With the cooperation of the players and the instructions gradually issued through the guild leader’s chat room, the orderly assembly of nearly a thousand players easily withstood the bandits’ onslaught..
