Chapter 1315: Chapter 887: Zhenjiling’s Little Adventure (Today Is Really Saddening)_2

Inquiring about such non-confidential intelligence was no trouble for Zhenjiling, and even less so with her “Superior Charm,” which made her well-liked by all. Just chatting a bit about trivial matters wasn’t a big deal.

“Who knows, they say it’s a batch of weapons, and they look damn heavy… Poor guys escorting them, originally there were only a few people, now they have to spare some for those big boxes, whether there are enough escorts or not is hard to say…”

“So that’s it…”

Listening to the two guards grumbling for a while, Zhenjiling nodded, then cheerfully said, “Big brother, hard work!” before turning and leaving the Royal Palace.

The Magic Department is transporting supplies?

After leaving the Royal Palace, Zhenjiling started to ponder. She had managed a Space Station before, so she was well aware of the importance of transporting supplies, especially since she had never seen a sudden increase in transport supplies before. And according to the guards, it seemed like quite a considerable amount?

Magic Department… Remember, wasn’t the father of that nobleman’s son killed earlier the head of the Magic Department? Hmm?

Just then, Zhenjiling involuntarily stopped in her tracks and turned her ears. She could hear people tracking her from behind.

And it seemed like from the front as well…

Zhenjiling slowed down her pace significantly. She was currently staying at the Adventurer’s Inn, but because of the United Army’s campaign, most adventurers had left the area, making it somewhat deserted, especially now during the dusk, with hardly anyone around.

Of course, Zhenjiling wasn’t scared at all. Although she was slim and petite, almost like an ordinary girl, Zhenjiling was a Horse Maiden.

What is a horse? Something that could kick you to death with one hoof.

And not to mention, Zhenjiling had training!

Actually, when Duanmu Huai wasn’t around, Zhenjiling often got harassed by adventurers, but usually, after a little “chat”, they turned into fans of “Cute Zhenjiling.”

After all… Cuteness is the most crucial thing.

Just as Zhenjiling halted, several masked men in black appeared ahead, blocking her path.

“Click.”

Zhenjiling’s perky ears twitched slightly. Clearly, there were people coming from behind too.

“What do you want?”

Zhenjiling was calm and collected, staring at the men in black and asking, while the latter drew out their Longswords and raised their Magic Wands.

“Damn Demon Beast, daring to infiltrate the Royal City! Ignorant fool!”

“Eh? Karen is not from the Demon Clan though.”

“Die!”

So it was.

Seeing that they had no intention to listen to her explanation, Zhenjiling sighed. She had suspected that there was something wrong with these people all along; if they truly believed she was from the Demon Clan, why not just capture her in the Royal Palace instead of waiting for a place where no one was around?

So, who exactly are they?

As the men in black made their move, so did Zhenjiling.

She had always disliked this approach, as it was too un-cute, but… The problem in front of her wasn’t something that could be solved just by “talking.”

One more thing.

Zhenjiling was a “Horse” Maiden.

When a horse starts to gallop, there is absolutely no way for humans to dodge.

The men in black were the same; they had barely started when they saw Zhenjiling already dashing right in front of them, then saw the girl tightly clenching her small fist and slamming it right into the chest of a man in black!

“Bang!!!”

“Ow!”

The man in black only felt a heaviness in his chest, and the next moment he was flying out, crashing onto a comrade behind him, both slumping against the wall and falling to the ground.

“Huff—-!”

At this moment, a flame shot out from behind. Zhenjiling quickly turned around to dodge and looked back, only to see a man in a black robe behind him lifting his magic wand, aiming at her and launching another attack.

You won’t succeed!

Watching the magic wand in the opponent’s hand, Zhenjiling reacted quickly and suddenly accelerated, rushing toward him again!

Each Horse Maiden has their own suited distance and speed, and Zhenjiling was best at short-range 1000M, bursts of speed were her specialty. The man in the black robe hadn’t reacted yet when he saw Zhenjiling was already in front of him, then she turned around and with a kick… a hoof… a foot, kicked out directly hitting the magic wand in the man’s hand.

The next moment, the magic wand, previously glowing with magical brilliance, was kicked up into the sky by Zhenjiling and exploded like fireworks, releasing a dazzling light. Then, Zhenjiling reached out her hand, and with a swing of her slender arm, she threw the man, who was a head taller than her, down to the ground!

“Wow!”

“Hello there, big brother.”

Although she pinned him to the ground, Zhenjiling still wore a smile.

“May I ask, what do you need from me so late at night?”

“No, don’t play dumb anymore, you damned Demon Clan member…”

“Ah? Big brother won’t tell?”

Upon hearing his angry shout, Zhenjiling curiously tilted her head.

“Then, we’ll have to talk it out properly.”

(A few minutes later)

“So you’re saying, it was Count Charltos who sent you to capture me?”

“Yes… the Earl investigated and knew you were in cahoots with that man, so he planned to catch you first and then torture you to death, to satisfy his grudge. As for that man, the Earl seems to have another plan.”

“Hmm… Does it have anything to do with the goods transported by the Magic Department yesterday?”

“I’m not really sure, it seems like it… because Count Charltos has been busy with this matter recently.”

“I see, thank you, big brother.”

Hearing the man in black’s answer, Zhenjiling smiled sweetly and thanked him obediently.

“Ah… there’s no need to thank me, you better leave quickly, Zhenjiling. The Earl has dispatched more than just my team, he has already stated that to the public you will be claimed as disguised by the Demon Clan, and we must capture you.”

“I see… I understand, I’ll leave now. Take care, big brother, until we meet again.”

“Alright, lovely Zhenjiling!”

Waving to the man in black robe who had become her loyal fan, Zhenjiling quickly left the mercenary area.

I didn’t expect this… Hmm, but should I say it’s a godsend? Now it seems that this Count Charltos must be up to something. It’s a pity that I can’t contact big brother here, so in that case… Hmm…

Zhenjiling pondered for a moment and made a decision.

I remember big brother and his team are now stationed in the Northern Fortress.

In that case… I might as well run over and tell him!

After all, I am a Horse Maiden, right?
