Chapter 212: Surprise
Keith Swordsman, who sent the arrow with the message to the high wall, did not hide his figure in the direction of the wall on the edge of the grass, and half-squatted to guard the surrounding area for a while, but he was not in a hurry to put away the bow and arrow in his hand, after all, if there was really an emergency, the efficiency of using the bow and arrow to solve the problem would definitely be higher than that of fists, feet, swords, etc., and Keith Swordsman was also hiding in the grass behind him, guarding the city guards who might suddenly arrive.
However, the reality of the situation is not as bad as expected, during this period, Keith Swordsman and his party did not unluckily expose their existence, but also, under David's strict requirements for the city guards, it can be said that there are almost no city guards who dare to be lazy and negligent in their duties, and thanks to this, there are not so many unexpected factors, which is convenient for Prime Minister Davide to manage the city of Tessali, and at the same time, it also provides great convenience for the actions of Keith Swordsman and his group.
This means that as long as you have the ability to figure out, figure out, and understand the law, place, and time of the city guards in the King of Tessali, the double defense mode carefully designed by Prime Minister David in the King City of Tessali can be easily ignored at all!
Of course, this is true in theory, but the more sophisticated the design and planning, the easier it is to be destroyed and disrupted, but at the same time, on the contrary, any unexpected element can easily destroy their secret actions, and the last thing that humans lack is accidentality, but it is obvious that Prime Minister Davide's high-pressure management is better, and those who don't understand the rules are not worthy of staying in the ranks of the Wangcheng City Guards at all, so Keith Swordsman and their group can walk so "easily".
Knowing that Colima on the wall was probably like when he encountered a situation during his usual mission, he had already sounded the small bell with an inaudible sound, and the two royal guards who were also swordsmen who were called might not have arrived at his side, so he did not act rashly at this time, nor did he choose to look out recklessly.
Because the experience of the past thousands of times has told them that the vast majority of those who can get past the two lines of defense set by Prime Minister David will not be easy to match, and maybe not all invaders will be good at bows and arrows, but if that powerful invader uses bows and arrows, then his archery skills must not be much worse...... After experiencing the deadly arrow that Keith Swordsman was silently and deliberately missed, Colima immediately knew that this "opponent" must be a good hand at using bows and arrows, if the intruder outside was not Keith Swordsman, but a real enemy, he would have risen regardless of the ground, and it was estimated that he had been shot in the head and died before he could stand up straight.
After reading the words in the white strip of cloth tied to the arrow, Collima probably understood something, and the previous feeling that the shocking arrow that could obviously kill him immediately but deliberately missed it also deepened his judgment, that is, he chose to believe the hint on the white cloth strip that few outsiders knew.
Colyma's two royal guards had just come to him, and before they could figure out what was going on from Colima's mouth, and what kind of opponent's invasion it was, they had only seen from a distance what he had untied from the arrows on the wooden wall behind the wall, and looked at it carefully, and before the two royal guards who were close to him whispered to him, they were startled by Colima's sudden and unreasonable bold move of half-crouching up and looking out, because they had obviously found the arrow that could be buried deep in the wooden wall, knowing that there is a high probability that there will be a powerful archer outside the wall, it is the most normal way for this kind of opponent to raise his shield first to test.
Almost instantly, Colima stretched out most of his head to see the situation outside, the size of such a half head on such a tall wall, it may be so small that it is almost impossible to see for ordinary people, but for a powerful archer with advanced archery, the difficulty is tantamount to probing for a bag, and it is extremely simple to kill Colima with one arrow.
Of course, Colima's approach also has his thoughts, that is, His Royal Highness Wells outside would use such a method to enter the palace, perhaps there is some major discovery or a serious situation, obviously they don't want to be discovered by the city guards in the secret outpost outside, so they are very in a hurry, after all, Kolima also knows that the time for the city guards to change the guard in the secret post separated by a wall is about to come!
Collima can only take a risk, betting that they are really His Royal Highness Wells, because even if the other party is an impostor, he has companions on his side, and it is impossible for the other party to succeed, but if there is really something important, they can't delay the mistake, they can become the royal guards, for the great affairs of the royal family, even if their choice will cost their lives, he will not hesitate, because this is the mission of the royal guards, the meaning of existence.
However, in the puzzled eyes of the royal guards, Colima's dangerous action did not usher in a sharp arrow outside the wall and was killed, but it was calm, and Collima seemed to have no problems, as if there was no enemy outside the wall, but this was obviously impossible, the arrows buried deep in the wooden wall would not lie, there must be an intruder with archery skills outside the wall!
Soon, however, the two of them had no need to wonder about anything, for after a brief glance at the outside, Collima crouched down again, and quickly explained to the two colleagues, and their eyes flashed with the same look of understanding and confusion as Colima's, and it was evident that all three of them had reflexively thought of the problem...... Why hide from the eyes and ears of the city guards?!
Of course, the three of Kolima would not suspect the three Keith swordsmen, after all, they all trained together, grew up fighting, and had a brotherly relationship with the glory of becoming the royal guard, and their gratitude to the Tessaly royal family and their love for the Tessali kingdom were the same, so the problem must be with the royal city guards who were not fully controlled by the royal family, and the three of them were also secretly vigilant.
However, the top priority is to pick up a few people from His Royal Highness Wells, after Colima finished explaining, the three of them discussed, and then half-squatted up and made a gesture to the Keith swordsman outside, pointing to the direction of the side door that the city guards' secret outpost could not observe, and signaling the other party to answer there.
And Keith Swordsman was relieved to see Colima showing his head instead of attacking himself, and then saw that Colima who had disappeared reappeared, and pointed to the side door where they wanted to go, and understood that the other party knew who he and the others were going to dodge, and immediately felt relieved, and after making a clear gesture, he quickly rushed to the side door with the five people behind him.
The side door was very close, because the three Keith swordsmen were designed to walk towards that door, and with the assistance of Colima, all six of them entered the palace safely, but just before the backs of the nine people disappeared into the door, a team of city guards who changed the guard happened to pass by this door and stopped them!
