Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 52 Each has his own thoughts
After Arnos and the others entered the castle.
The griffon's massive storm swept back and forth across the castle, and powerful soul energy wreaked havoc everywhere, destroying everything in the castle that never dissipated.
It seems that because this storm is affected by the soul matter, it does not pass through the castle and leave like a normal storm, but repeatedly attacks the entire castle until the last moment when the energy is depleted.
Anos and the others walked in the castle, looking at the suddenly quiet and no one in the castle corridor, usually there should be servants passing by in the corridor from time to time, and the castle revealed a slightly strange atmosphere.
"Looks like the people in the castle are hiding. Fred looked around and touched his chin.
"Maybe I was scared. Elsa said as she recalled the servant's panicked eyes earlier.
"In the face of such a terrifying storm, it is normal to hide. Anos nodded.
"But...... It's also possible that the Saxophone Viscount did it. Fred smiled, a slight cold light shining in his purple eyes, "Now there is no servant, and we are not familiar with the castle, if we want to find this saxophone, it will be difficult." ”
"It's really calculating. Fred said.
"Shame on your heart......," Anos thought for a moment, "Anyway, our first objective has been accomplished, preventing the griffon storm from starting on time and allowing the others to escape the storm." ”
"As for Viscount Saxophone......"
"The griffon's head has been affected, only about half of the storm has hit the castle, and with the current strength of the storm, it shouldn't be able to completely destroy the castle, but at least it can tear a big hole, and then the griffon can easily find the saxophone. ”
"Do you think we're going to save him then?" Arnos asked suddenly.
"I don't think it's necessary, this Viscount Saxophone is full of suspicions, uneasy and kind, the guard who died last time is probably his hand behind the scenes, why save him?"
"And we don't even know where the other is hiding now, where to protect him?" Fred shrugged, looking disgusted with Sachs.
"But we can't confirm it yet...... If we don't go, the news of this matter may affect the reputation of our Night Curtain......" Elsa said, shaking her head.
Suddenly, Ian's eyes froze, he rolled and jumped to the side.
Anos and the others also reacted in time, and one dodged sideways.
Only then did they realize that a huge black shadow had rushed in and flashed past the people of Anos.
It's the griffon, it's the griffon!
After the storm attacked the castle, the griffon 'he' ignored the physical obstacles through his body and easily passed through the castle walls, rushing in to find Viscount Sax.
"Yes, the griffin beast is also a soul creature, and naturally it can also make the body soul-qualitative, this griffin has never used soul-incarnation before, and I almost forgot about it. Fred looked at the back of the griffin who was already gone, patted his head and said, "I thought 'he' would wait until the castle was destroyed before coming in." ”
"It seems that the reason why this griffon destroyed the castle is not because the castle can stop 'him', but simply wants to vent his anger and make Sachs lose more. ”
"It's fine. "This griffin is not familiar with the inside of the castle, and he will not be able to find the saxophone for a while, so let's talk with him first, so as not to let the griffin accidentally hurt ordinary people." ”
After Anos finished speaking, he sensed the strong aura left by the griffin, and then sprinted away along the griffin's route.
Fred and the others also followed Anos.
... ...
Somewhere inside the castle.
"This damn monster!" Sachs slammed his glass to the ground, anger lingering on his face.
Even though Sachs was hiding in the chamber, he could faintly hear the castle outside being destroyed by the storm...... It's all money, a lot of money! I don't know how long it will take to make up for the loss.
"Damn! Isn't it just that you accidentally killed a mare, and you dare to take revenge on me like this!"
"Then I must skin this griffin and cramp it, so that this monster will dare to take revenge on my Saxophone!" Viscount Sachs was furious.
"And that curtain of night, what an elite soul hunter! I can't even stop a griffin who has already been wounded! The plan to kill Lao Tzu is half of a failure, and even if the plan succeeds in the end, the price to pay is too great. Viscount Sachs continued to curse without any aristocratic etiquette.
Although Saxophone was very respectful and polite in front of Arnos, in fact this was just a disguise that Saxophone used to disguise himself, how polite and friendly he was on the surface, but how brutal and moody he was in reality.
"Lord Viscount, the griffon has entered the castle. "In the secret room with Saxophone turned out to be Rhine, the butler.
Rhine was not as violent as Viscount Sax, but was still very calm and said lightly.
"What? Didn't they stop the griffin more?" Sachs had already begun to calm down after scolding, but Sachs was enraged again by the news.
"They seem to have noticed our anomaly and are not willing to help us anymore. Ryan said.
"Heh, I know that these soul hunters are unreliable. Sachs said coldly, "Forget it, since they won't, then you can deal with this griffin when the time comes." ”
"This griffon has already been wounded, and even if it seems so powerful now, it is only a return to the light, and there is nothing to fear. Sachs said.
"Take care of this matter well, and I, Sachs, will not treat you badly, and the people of the family will be happy, so that you will have a chance to get the help of the Brenda family and become a stable acquired soul descendant, understand?" Sachs said to Rhine.
"Yes, Lord Viscount. Rhine lowered his head and did not look directly at Viscount Saxophone, looking a little unusual, but Sachs did not notice it.
"As for the Night Veil and that Edith, I didn't expect them to be friendly with each other, and the situation between the two tigers didn't come to pass...... Forget it, it's better to spend a little more money to let them leave early. Viscount Sachs said indignantly.
Sachs seems to be displeased with the failure to use the power of Night Veil and Edith to completely resolve the griffon, and to bring the two into conflict, to the benefit of the Saxophone fisherman.
"Wait here for this griffon...... Scold. Sachs smiled coldly.
... ...
Outside the castle.
Xia Zuo and the others finally arrived at the outskirts of the castle, but the doors and windows of the castle had long been closed, and there was a raging wind everywhere, and no one was seen, and the griffin who was supposed to be outside to control the storm was not here, which made Xia Zuo stunned.
"I guess everyone and the griffins have gone into the castle. Xia Zuo resisted the strong wind, thought about it, and said.
Xia Zuo looked at the storm that was rushing back and forth around the castle in front of him, and he didn't know what to do.
Later, I will rush directly and there is no door to enter, won't I be swept away by the storm?
I don't want to be blown "to the sky" by the wind.
While Xia Zuo hesitated, Jasmine seemed to be thinking about something.
The little Hippogriff watched the scene with unease, wanting to see 'his' father.
After a while.
A playful voice suddenly came from the air, causing Xia Zuo to turn his head.
"Yo, brother, I haven't found that griffin yet. A gray-haired and purple-eyed girl chuckled while riding a huge flying eagle with the breath of the undead, and then the girl jumped lightly from the back of the giant eagle.
It's Edith.
"It's all stormy outside, and it doesn't seem like it's okay to rush in. Xia Zuo looked at Edith and said helplessly.
"Oh, that's right. Edith gently stroked the head of the Aquila undead and said with a grin on her face, as if this storm was not a huge obstacle for her, as long as Xia Zuo asked her for help, she could help Xia Zuo.
But Xia Zuo didn't want to be helped like this all the time.
Xia Zuo observed again.
Suddenly, Xia Zuo's gaze froze, and he stopped in one place.
Xia Zuo found the window that Fred had kicked open and then reclosed, and it was already crumbling.
"We jumped in from there, and we had to be fast, or we might be swept up by the storm as soon as we got close. Natsuzo pointed to the window, from where he sensed the breath of the others in the Night Veil.
"Then let's rush over now. Jasmine said.
"Okay. Edith nodded slightly.
"Are you going to wait here?" Xia Zuo suddenly looked at the little Hippogriff.
"No, I want to go in with you. The little Hippogriff said seriously, "I want to ...... Meet my father. ”
"Hmm. Xia Zuo paused.
"Then we'll ride on your back, and you'll rush over as fast as you can, and with the weight and speed of the few of us combined, you shouldn't be swept away by the storm. ”
"As for Edith...... "Xia Zuo couldn't help but look at Edith, "Why don't you come with us?" Xia Zuo couldn't help but scratch his head.
"Hehe, no need Brother, this little thing can't stop me, you guys go in first. Edith smiled.
“...... Well, let's go in first. Xia Zuo thought about it, and let it be with Edith, after all, Edith's strength is indeed strong, very close to the level of the Soul Hunter Master, and it is much stronger than Captain Anos, who only has a comprehensive quality (IQ and EQ are counted) to reach the quasi-Soul Hunter Master.
It's not enough to stump Edith.
"Let's go in!" said Natsuzo and Jasmine, seated on the back of the little Hippogriff again.
The little juniper's soul energy suddenly gushed out, and after the little juniger's soul energy was condensed into its wings, it flapped its wings violently, and then went straight to the window with a "whoosh"!
The moment the Hippogriff crashed into the storm, its speed suddenly dropped, as if it had been greatly hindered by the strength of the wind.
But the strength of the little Hippogriff is really not weak, coupled with the weight and soul energy blessing of Xia Zuo and Jasmine, the three were not overturned or blown away by the storm, but finally successfully broke through the wind barrier, passed through the window, and rushed into the castle.
However, after two successive blows, the window finally broke down and could no longer be used.
After Xia Zuo entered the castle, Edith, who was still outside, suddenly chuckled.
"It's time to come out, right? I've found you. Edith said.
However.
No sound.
There was not a single movement.
"Strange...... Could it really be that I'm too sensitive?" Edith frowned at this.
"Then let's try it. Edith raised her eyebrows, then let go of some of her restrictions on the Undead Aquila, allowing the Undead Aquila to search for the breath of nearby living creatures.
As the Undead Aquila was about to begin, a voice suddenly sounded from a corner, and then a twisted black shadow emerged from that corner and appeared in front of Edith's eyes.
"Hehe, there's really no way, I avoided you last time, but I didn't expect to be able to hide this time, I didn't expect you to be so difficult to fool this little girl. The Twisted Shadow said with a smile, but the voice seemed to have its own noise, which was very harsh, and I didn't know if it was meant to be like this, or to cover up the original sound.
"A distorted, blurred dark shadow that enveloped her body......," Edith blinked, and then her eyes began to become serious, retracting her previous playful and cunning look.
"Are the Fallen Ones of the 'Fallen Hearts'......"
