The Strongest Knight

"Don't worry, Gray. This should just be a special kind of tracking witchcraft." Angele was no longer nonchalant and his face was solemn when faced with serious matters.

"Wizard?" Gray frowned.

"Yes, at least a wizard of the official level." Angelet nodded solemnly.

Gray had the impression that he had never offended any wizarding power. He looked at Anna, who also shook her head blankly.

"Could it be the wizards from the Merry Mountains?" Holm thought about the nearest wizarding forces in the surrounding area and spoke.

Gray recalled the location of the Merry Mountains, a regional force established by wizards that could only be reached further south of the Candy Canyon.

"If it is the wizard from the Meli Mountains, then the situation facing Candy Canyon will be worse than we imagined." Yu Renmin said in a deep voice.

"So, let's guess, why did those wizards set up tracking methods on Anna?" Angele asked.

It was not directed at himself or Anna, but at Canty Canyon, or rather, at the collaboration between Canty Canyon and Red River Valley!

So when and how will it happen?

Gray's mind was working rapidly and his expression became increasingly serious.

"Gray, will my teacher be in danger?" Anna's quick response improved the three congressmen's impression of Anna when they first met.

Anna has never left her teacher's side since leaving the canyon.

If he could leave tracking means on Anna who was beside Freya, he should be able to leave the same means on Freya as well.

Now Freya is returning to Candy Canyon from the Red River Valley alone, and the uninhabited area she has to pass through is at least a hundred kilometers long.

It was hard not to guarantee that the wizard who had left this tracking aura on Anna would not attack Freya.

If Freya died on the way back, the Red River Valley would not be able to explain it clearly, and there was no guarantee that something unusual would not happen in the Candy Canyon.

The Red River Valley Congressman has already touched upon the source of the incident and feels its seriousness.

"Freya left not long ago. I'll go and take a look." Gray gave Anna a reassuring look and spoke.

"Will I go too?" Angelet felt that he could better handle the wizard's methods.

Gray shook his head. "Right now the enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. We don't know the enemy's purpose yet. I can do it alone. You three should be responsible for keeping an eye on the Red River Valley."

Gray is now very powerful and has many trump cards. Even if he meets a second-level wizard, Gray is confident that he can fight.

The three Red River Valley councillors were eventually persuaded by Grey and chose to wait for his return in Grey Castle, with Grey alone going to inquire about Freya's safety.

At the same time, Holm sent a mage's communication method to send the message to Wells in Canty Canyon.

Although this method of communication is not as fast as emergency communications, it is not too slow either.

Orders were passed down from the mouths of the four councillors and delivered to the entire Red River Valley through their personal disciples or stewards.

Anyone who pays close attention will notice that there are more police patrolling the streets of the Red River Valley and that checks are becoming more frequent.

Before leaving, Grey called Amy and asked her to take good care of Anna and help her familiarize herself with the environment of Grey Knight Castle.

Amid Anna's instructions, Gray chose to leave instantly.

......

Of course, Gray cannot use teleportation to travel for a long time.

However, Gray gave up the horse and chose to gallop on his own.

With nimble steps, Gray's figure turned into a phantom and quickly chased in the south in the direction where Freya left. His speed was several times faster than that of a horse running at full speed.

"I'm afraid it will cost a lot to win the war in Longnei Highlands."

"The scale of the war is much larger than expected." The surrounding scenery rapidly receded, Gray frowned slightly, thinking in his heart.

Once the forces of the Merry Mountains are involved, the 2V1 crushing war launched by the Red River Valley and the Candy Canyon against the Longnei Highlands will become an equal 2V2 situation.

By then, it would be particularly interesting to see whether Huangyan City, which is eyeing the situation covetously from the sidelines, would take the risk and seize the opportunity to attack the Red River Valley.

This is something Gray is worried about.

The people of Huangyan City have been in a state of panic recently because of the Fallen.

Everyone knows that the Fallen feed on knight apprentices or even knights, so the appearance of the Fallen near Huangyan City, where knights mainly practice, did not arouse any suspicion at all.

Mo Shi of Huangyan City has recently raised the alert level in the Huangyan City area to the highest level. He will never start a war without destroying the Fallen One or making sure that the Fallen One has left.

The loss of an elder is already devastating enough. If any other accident happens, the foundation of Huangyan City will be shaken.

It is precisely because there are so many regions like the Central Region and too many constraints that, despite the constant small-scale battles, no region will frequently take the initiative to launch large-scale wars.

If you win the battle but don't have the strength to hold on to your territory, your hometown might be swallowed up by other powerful forces.

It would be better to stay in your old territory, live a good life and accumulate strength.

Even if there is a really powerful regional force, such as the Central City, a top regional force in the Central Region, it will stop its invasion after swallowing up multiple regional forces in succession.

Because if we expand further, we will have to face another top-level force.

The more powerful a regional power is, the more cautious its pace of regional expansion becomes.

In the Central Region, there have been incidents where top regional forces have been attacked by a large group of people and then cannibalized.

......

Gray was moving very fast and soon he was leaping across the roof and leaving the Red River Valley city area through the exit on the south side of the Red River Valley.

Although Gray was fast, he was running on the ground after all, and the road was winding and uneven, so it was still much slower than Heiyu's full flying speed.

Unfortunately, Heiyu was at the Mithril Mine station with Gray's other two disciples, Anderson and Chris, to guard the Mithril Mine, and was not with Gray.

Otherwise Gray would be able to keep up with Freya at a faster pace.

As his strength increased, Gray's senses became more acute.

Galloping all the way, Gray followed Freya's faint breath and always maintained the correctness of the general direction.

"This old woman is walking in such a hurry." More than an hour later, Gray had already walked south into the uninhabited area between the Candy Canyon, but he still felt that he was some distance away from Freya, and he couldn't help but say this in his heart.

Freya's safety cannot be guaranteed until they reach the territory of Candy Canyon, so Gray has to keep up the pace.

......

In front of Gray, Freya had been blocked by a red-robed wizard.

"Melitelli?" Freya looked in surprise at the red-robed wizard who suddenly appeared in the middle of her way.

"Haha, Mage Freya, long time no see." The wizard in a red robe took off his hood, revealing a terrifying face.

His entire face was without epidermis, and his blood vessels and granulation tissue were exposed and clearly visible; his round eyeballs were not covered by eye sockets, and were directly exposed and connected to his optic nerves.
