Chapter 706 Joining the gang
"Let Princess Julia come with me, and we will separate."
"What?" X2
Warlock Congreve and Princess Julia were surprised to hear Luke's idea.
Luke sighed.
"Your battle should be easier to get out of without the princess."
"So, the key issue now is the princess."
Congreve looked at Luke, his face serious.
"So, what you're saying is that he should go with you?"
Luke shook his head.
"No, I'm going with Ms. Maximov and me."
"Even if there is any problem on the road, the two of us are enough to take her out of danger."
Congreve was silent.
Princess Julia was surprised at first, but when she heard about being with Luke, she perked up.
She has been coveting Luke's beauty for a long time.
However, she was a little disappointed that Wanda had to be brought along.
But there was no way, even she herself didn't believe that Luke could protect her alone.
With Wanda, a mentor-level warlock, it would be possible.
Congreve thought for a long time, and finally looked up at Luke.
"Are you sure you can protect Julia?"
Luke nodded, then pointed to the map and said:
"Look, no matter which way we go from here, our final destination is the capital city of Rota."
"However, the sphere of influence of Rota City is very prosperous, and they dare not take action in this area."
"So, if I were a member of the Holy See, I would put my hands into several passages in Rota City."
"Our group is too big a target and too easy to be discovered."
"So, the best way is for us to split up and approach Rota City from another direction with small targets."
Congreve looked at the route Luke pointed out and fell into deep thought.
In fact, no matter how many people come, they are not enough for Luke and Wanda to kill.
But in front of Congreve, Luke and Wanda couldn't reveal their strength.
It's easy with only one princess around.
If you encounter a fight, knock them out immediately.
As for the rest, Luke and Wanda can do whatever they want.
You know, there are all kinds of modern weapons in Luke's space.
Luke tried it secretly and found that it can be used in this world, and the destructive power is not much different from that in the original world.
Although it has been weakened, it is not a big problem.
There is also an advantage to the weakening, that is, the original supersonic bullet has become a subsonic bullet.
With the addition of a silencer, the effect is even better, the only difference is that the range is a little shorter and the trajectory is a little more curved.
This was no problem at all for Luke.
As long as it has killing power, a machine gun can at least stop a battalion of infantry and cavalry.
With Wanda, there is no danger at all.
Congreve and Julia looked at each other.
I noticed that Julia didn't look resistant or afraid.
What's with this slightly excited look?
Congreve finally agreed to Luke's request.
But to be on the safe side, he still gave Wanda a token.
With this thing, you can seek help from the Warlock Guild in any city.
Afterwards, Luke gave some instructions to Princess Julia.
Then Congreve explained what we needed to pay attention to during the rest of the trip.
Before dawn the next day, Luke left the city with Wanda and Julia.
Julia changed into civilian clothes.
As Wanda's follower.
Wanda is a girl after all, and her makeup skills are pretty good.
So a little disguise was done for Princess Julia.
Even if you hold the portrait now, you can't recognize that this girl is Princess Julia.
Luke and his two companions were not the only ones who got up early.
Congreve and his men also set off after Luke left.
Luke gave most of the supplies to Congreve.
There are three of us, so we will never be short of food.
Unexpectedly, not long after Luke left the city, he encountered a caravan.
The group had more than twenty carriages.
There are more than one hundred armed men in the team.
Including the people in the caravan itself, there are almost two hundred people.
When the other party saw that Luke only had one carriage, they also sent people to inquire.
But when he saw that Luke was actually a warlock, he relaxed.
Generally, caravans will be very careful when they meet people traveling with them.
The name of the warlock is still very big.
Especially Wanda received some guidance from Congreve and some news from the Warlock Guild headquarters.
Successfully showed off in front of the caravan.
Why can I show off? Because there is also a warlock in the team.
When a caravan travels on business, it needs both ordinary and high-end military forces.
There are two warlocks in the team.
One is a third-level warlock and the other is an apprentice warlock.
Although Wanda is only a third-level warlock on the surface, Congreve certified it himself.
Wanda is at least a mentor-level warlock.
In reality, Wanda is even more powerful.
When the other party saw that Wanda was a warlock with connections at the Warlock Guild headquarters, his attitude became much better.
The ultimate destination of this caravan is also the capital, but it will not go directly to the capital.
The route is roughly a triangle.
They buy some specialty products at the border and then sell them in another city.
Purchase specialty products along the way and sell them in the capital.
Then they buy goods from the capital and sell them in Tatu City.
In this way, a virtuous and fixed business cycle is formed.
Luke took the opportunity to offer to go with them.
The theory is that Wanda went out to gain experience and became not only a warlock but also a herbalist.
This identity is quite remarkable.
Herbalists are one of the few professions that can provide treatment.
However, compared to doctors, most herbalists are doing research.
But their medical skills are no worse than those of doctors.
The head of the caravan came in person to confirm with Wanda.
Wanda continues to maintain her aloof personality.
Full authority was given to Luke.
Luke was still dressed like a butler, wearing a retro suit so clean that he didn't look like a traveler.
"We can join the team, but I have a few requests..."
Luke still made a few decent requests.
For example, you are responsible for your own food, and sometimes you need the help of team members to collect some plants.
When passing through cities along the way, they will take on some tasks, but it won't take too long.
The head of the caravan readily agreed.
How could he refuse such a good thing as having a powerful warlock accompany him without spending a penny?
So Luke successfully joined the caravan.
Even Princess Julia sighed that this was such good luck.
Joining a caravan not only increases safety, but also makes disguise easier.
Little did he know that Luke had actually learned about this caravan when he was upholding justice in Tatu City.
But he did not expect at the beginning that the Holy See would be so crazy and unite with Tyr to assassinate Princess Julia in the country.
As it happened, he was too lazy to act with Warlock Congreve.
It would be safer for him and Wanda to take this opportunity to stay away from this old fox.
He was really afraid that if something unexpected happened on the road, it would be troublesome if his strength was exposed.
On the contrary, it was easier for him to hide himself in a large caravan.
With Wanda leading the way, he could easily blend into the crowd and attack quietly.
Afterwards, no one would have thought that he was a more terrifying existence than a grandmaster-level warlock.
