173. The Servant of the Crowd (Ask for a Double Monthly Pass)

A little earlier, before the speed was tampered with.

Kelly finally arrived at a suitable position.

She hadn't been able to get a complete picture of the castle's back door, but it seemed that riots had begun to break out at the castle.

Countless people, pouring out of the auditorium, from the storeroom, from the tower, from the shadows, like ant colonies, were moving towards the back door.

Kelly stopped.

Continue the detour on the hillside, or ......

At this distance, if she no longer retains her physical strength to sprint with all her strength, she may be able to reach the edge of the castle in more than twenty minutes.

Driven by some weird reason, she came up with an idea.

Not to be missed, she immediately decided to take the opportunity to go to the castle.

When she really ran, it seemed that the speed was faster than she imagined, and the scene behind the scenes was unfolded in front of her, and at this moment, there was no longer countless black fog.

Everything changed because of her.

A strange and winding concrete road appeared in front of her, and she did not hesitate to follow the road behind the scenes.

The ground flattened, the gravel made way for her, and the trees lifted their branches slightly, their bodies lighter with each turn.

Her speed did not exceed the limits of her body, but it did transcend the laws of physics, and this was the first time that Kelly knew that curves and lines were sometimes shorter than straight lines.

She didn't dare to come back to reality while running, because she didn't know if it was the original world that was waiting for her on the other side.

Ten minutes? or less, she couldn't tell exactly how fast time would flow, but Kelly saw the end of the road.

She rushed out.

A sense of pushing and shoving appeared around Kelly, and she was hurriedly thrown out of the world behind the scenes, as if a very bad fate would befall her if she stayed a little longer.

The girl fell to the ground, and if a guard in the vicinity spotted her, she would be able to subdue Kelly immediately, but no one could be there.

The guards haven't all disappeared, but they're much thinner.

It was the safest no-man's land she'd ever seen on the hillside, and it was Kelly's original destination.

This time, the scene behind the scenes was presented according to her wishes.

Her strength soon regained completely, and the benefits of regular exercise were now manifested.

Kelly got back to her feet.

The wall in front of it was only three meters high, because it was not built for war, it only needed to keep out the curious guys, and it couldn't be built too high to attract attention.

Kelly climbed over the wall in a few clicks and moved quietly and quickly towards the tower.

From the crowd that poured out just now, it can be seen that the servants are more from the Tower, which is where she speculated Veronica.

However, the number of servants surprised Kelly a little, for it was not at all like the number of people the tower could hold, unless they were all huddled together while they slept.

With the distribution of the crowd she had just observed on the hillside, and her perverse instincts, Kelly approached the young beast deep in the wolves like a wild cat sneaking into a wolf's den.

The gate of the tower is simple and magnificent, and it gives people a sense of silence from the heart, as if it were not a noble lady who lived inside, but a sage who needed to be respected.

Kelly gently placed her hand on the door and pressed hard.

The door is unlocked.

I don't know if it was because of carelessness or self-confidence, no one locked this door properly, which made Kelly's next action a lot smoother.

It was a windowless tower, and she didn't think she could climb to the top floor and get through those few small openings.

The hall on the first floor was empty, and there were some strange sculptures on the walls, and there were electric lights, but they were not lit, only a few oil lamps emitted a dim glow.

In one corner of the hall, there was a large spiral staircase covered with a dark blanket, the color of which Kelly was unable to distinguish because the light was not bright enough.

Kelly stepped up the spiral staircase and began to lean over the wall, listening carefully to the sounds around her, and if anyone approached her, she could quickly hide.

Before reaching the first floor, Kelly stopped and observed for a moment, the first, second, and third floors, there was no one and no light.

It's a building with oil and electric lights, so why don't you turn on the lights, even if it's a fire.

Until she reached the fourth floor.

Kelly swears, she swears to King Arthur, she swears to the Creator, she never heard a sound.

However, an old woman was coming down the stairs, and she was facing Kelly.

The girl's heart rose to her throat.

There was no time to dodge, so she had to pretend to be calm and stand still, but she didn't know how terrifying what awaited her next.

The old woman was too old to look like a living person, her face was wrinkled, and it looked like it would turn into dust at any moment, and her bones seemed to have a few dead knots inside her body.

She looked up at Kelly:

"Newcomer? Didn't you tell someone to go to the back door? What are you doing here?"

Kelly breathed a sigh of relief, the other party actually thought that she was also a maid, but this was normal, because there were so many people here, and no one could have imagined that anyone would be able to sneak into the heavily guarded castle.

Kelly asked:

"Grandma, why didn't you go either?"

The old woman let out a shrill laugh, and the folds on her face shook with it:

"Haha, I'm half a foot into the ground, what else are I going to join in, how can you little girl not follow the rules, didn't you come voluntarily, but even so, what can you do? Anyway, don't think about going out when you enter here. ”

A chill rose in Kelly's heart, what does it mean that she can't go out? Looking at the old woman's appearance, the fear in Kelly's heart became more and more intense.

The old woman kindly reassured:

"You haven't had time to have a ceremony with Father Gaianti, my old bones have come to this castle with their master, and everyone has seen them, and there is no shortage of them who want to escape, and I advise you to die of this heart, and although life is bad now, at least you can live.

"You know, all those who run away don't end well, death is the best outcome, no one can escape from this place, no one has ever succeeded. ”

The old woman saw Kelly's look of resistance and shook her head:

"It's fine if you listen to my old fellow, but don't do anything stupid, some things aren't as terrible as you think, Veronica......"

The old woman suddenly changed her words:

"The master she is also very kind and simple, to be with such a person is somewhat comforting, alas, the master is upstairs, just say you will not believe it, it is better to take the opportunity to see with your own eyes, you just say that you are here to clean, you can go in. ”

After saying that, the old woman stopped rambling and walked slowly and silently downstairs.

Kelly stared at the old woman's back, as if the other party would turn around and turn into a devouring monster at any moment, and finally, before the old woman's back disappeared, she couldn't help but take a look behind the scenes.

The old woman was gone.

Kelly closed her eyes.

Anyone of sanity who sees this scene will have a desire to vomit due to physiological factors.

It was a child with wrinkles and dark spots all over his body.
