More than a dozen city guards surrounded Milushia's carriage, and another twenty or so city guards drew their swords and exchanged glances with the bandits from all directions.

"Brothers! Get rid of them! Leave the women and children alive!"

After the tall man on the cliff gave orders to the bandits, the scene suddenly became chaotic.

Milushia has come here so many times, and she returned safely every time. I didn't expect such a sudden change to happen this time!

"Who are they...?"

Milushia didn't dare to look out the window. There were heavy casualties outside and the air smelled of blood. She hugged Isabella tremblingly.

"Miss! Our city guards should be able to handle it..."

Before the guardian aunt could finish her words, two bloody blades were thrust into the side door of the carriage, and the sounds of fighting nearby gradually faded away.

The bandits had already eliminated all the city guards. Many of them had used magic scrolls and other magical tools in advance, so the number of casualties among the bandits was less than ten.

The door of the carriage was opened by a bald man.

"Someone! Kidnap them!"

Milushia pointed at the bald man in shock and asked.

"You! Who are you?"

Milushia summoned up her courage and shouted, "Do you know who my father is? My father is the lord of Leonton City, Count Jialai!"

The bald man punched Milushia in the face.

"The one I caught is you!"

The bald man glanced at the other girl behind Milushia.

"Oh? There's an unexpected gain, it's Isabella! Recently, your portraits are everywhere in Leonton City! You can even defeat a primary demonized griffin..."

The boss behind the bald man appeared and patted him on the shoulder.

"Second brother, these two girls should be able to fetch a good price for the Magic Group, so take them away! We can talk nonsense later when we get back."

The boss's magical aura is the strongest among all. Isabella can tell that this person's magic element is earth magic.

He held a piece of grass in his mouth, his face solemn. He looked at Isabella for a few seconds, then waved his hand. The soil on the ground was like surging mud, sweeping the corpses on the ground into the ground.

But Isabella had no intention of fighting back at the moment. Instead, she really wanted to know what their purpose was, and what kind of organization the so-called Magic Group was.

The four women were tied to a carriage containing monster cages. Their hands and feet were bound with ropes to limit the fluctuations of the magic source, and even their mouths were bitten and tied with towels.

Milushia fell on Isabella and cried silently, not knowing whether it was because she was hurt by the beating or for some other reason.

At sunset, Isabella and Milucia were locked in an underground hall in a cave.

The cave hall is very large, as big as five classrooms.

It goes without saying that the other two maids would be enjoyed by a group of bandits.

There were only three racks in the dim cave hall, and scattered around were a group of children, all of whom had been beaten and had purple bruises and scars all over their bodies.

Isabella and Milucia had a better environment. They were isolated in a straw-covered cage made of iron and covered with rust.

Isabella untied the towel gag that was covering Milushia's mouth.

"It hurts so much! I feel like my face is swollen!"

Milushia grumbled, "They are dead! If my father doesn't see me coming back tonight, he will definitely send the Knights to look for us!"

Isabella ignored her and untied the towel gag and sat against the wall.

Milushia also fell silent and looked around at the dim environment, which made her feel even more scared.

Isabella counted and found that there were twenty-one children in total, including herself. Their hands and feet were shackled, and every step they took made a heavy metallic sound of the chains colliding.

The children here are all at the entry-level magic level, and like Milucia, they have only awakened their magic power.

One of the elf girls with white hair walked towards Isabella, walking slowly but steadily.

As she walked over, many children cowered timidly under the stone wall.

When Isabella saw her, she couldn't believe whether there was something wrong with her ability to see through things.

This little elf girl is actually a high-level magician! It's just that the source of magic power is suppressed to the same entry-level as hers, but the concentration is definitely high-level.

It was not certain what the purpose of this little elf girl was, and it was even more uncertain whether she had also seen Isabella's true level of magic.

"Hey! New here! What's going on? Are you locked in a cage? We are all little girls, why are we treated differently? Or do you not like sleeping on the stone floor?"

The elf girl spoke in a bad tone, like an old man mixed up in gangs.

"I am the daughter of Count Jialai! Who are you?" Milushia said excitedly, "How did you get caught here, a stinky elf?"

"What elves? My father is human, and my mother is an elf. To be precise, I am half human and half elf... Oh! Did you just call me smelly? If you weren't locked in a cage, I would have beaten you up! Do you know why these people are covered in scars? It's because I beat them up!"

She finished with a toothy smile.

His hands were already grasping the iron cage.

"Hey! You stinky elf! What...what do you want to do? I know magic!"

Milushia shouted, then chanted a spell, forming a red magic seal on her palm.

But the magic seal disappeared in an instant.

"The scattered magic powder in the fire can limit our source of magic power, and everyone's level will drop by one level." The elf girl kept pulling open the iron cage, and the two iron bars had been deformed. "Magic is useless here! We can only beat you into cripples! Then they won't sell us at a high price!"

Isabella discovered that this elf girl had been interacting with Milucia for such a long time without noticing her own strength. It could be preliminarily judged that she did not have the ability to see through things, or that she had hidden it too well.

At this time, a junior magic warrior came down holding a torch. Isabella could smell the strong smell of alcohol on the guy from a distance.

"Hey! Elf kid! Are you going to hit someone again?"

He walked over cursing, grabbed the elf girl with one hand, and threw her away like garbage.

Then he checked the iron cage and found that it had deformed a little.

The fallen elf girl lay on the ground, laughing strangely.

Milushia pulled Isabella's hand and whispered, "Isn't that elf a lunatic?"

"You think she is crazy, then don't doubt it, she is!"

The drunk supervisor went over and kicked the elf girl a few times. When she became quiet, he ignored her and went outside the cave hall to continue drinking.

"Milushia... We were kidnapped! Don't mention your father. It's useless for you to say anything here! Also, don't mess with that elf girl..."

"My father is rich! How much will they demand to release us both?"

"Money? They definitely don't want the Earl's money, because having money and having the energy to spend it are two different things. They dare to kidnap us... which means this place is hidden enough."

late at night.

Count Jialai still hasn't seen Milushia return, and has sent a team to search along the road for two hours, but still no trace of her.

It was not until midnight that I heard from a team of adventurers that a man-made landslide was found on the Oran Highlands, along with Count Jialai’s carriage, and the bodies of the city guards were buried three meters underground...

Count Jialai realized that something had happened to his daughter, as well as his brother Heroda's daughter...

Immediately arrange personnel to find the adventurer team that witnessed the scene, notify Heroda to mobilize the Eighth Knights, and rush to Oran Highlands overnight.

In the cave, Milushia was tired after a day of work and had fallen into a drowsy sleep, lying on Isabella's belly, drooling.

There were always sounds of many people talking quietly in the cave.

After all, they were all in the cave, and they had no idea that it might be night outside! So many people who woke up were whispering.

The elf girl is here again.

When they walked outside the cage in front of Isabella, the footsteps had already woken up Milushia.

"Hey! Little red-haired human girl! You can still sleep at this time? And you!" She pointed at Isabella and said sternly, "You know what? I hate it most when there are humans who are prettier than me!"

After that, she threw the two stones in her hands at Isabella's face.

Milushia was immediately furious and stood up to punch her, but unfortunately her shoulder was stuck in the cage and she missed the target by a hair's breadth.

The elf girl kicked out, but fortunately Milushia retracted her hand quickly, otherwise the kick almost hit Milushia's arm.

"Hey! Little elf sister, how did you get here?"

Isabella gritted her teeth and asked the elf girl.

The elf girl was stunned for a moment, her expression instantly became solemn, and then she returned to her crazy and playful state.

"I said I came here on my own! Do you believe me? Do you dare to come out? I will beat you to a pulp!"
