Chapter Twenty-Seven: Eavesdropping on Secrets
Blackspot Castle is located at the top of the hill. There are many pillars from the foot of the mountain to the ridge. Not only is it equipped with a mercenary handle, but it is also equipped with a large number of mechanized detection tools, such as sonic scanning, thermal induction scanning, and even more advanced life energy scanning equipment.
Magic usually acts only on the mind and does not affect the existence of matter. There is no soul in the machine. It is almost impossible for a magician or a spirit mage to deceive a machine with an illusion, trying to deceive the world with ordinary illusions.
The investigation system of Blackspot Castle is very advanced. It has pretty good stealth and stealth skills, so it's hard for thieves and killers to penetrate it.
Zhang Tong's actions obscured Monty's work, allowing the energy to evenly cover the surface of his body and blend into the darkness, regardless of each other. Even if you look closely, you can only see a vague outline. Zhang Tong, as a heaven and earth powerhouse, was able to detect the distribution of the reconnaissance energy network. When trying to enter, the energy touches the body and is automatically absorbed and dissolved without feedback information.
Very good.
Will trick the machine into detection!
The report Monty is extremely esoteric. Its energy is not all magic, it is also dark energy. Dark energy is material energy, and its greatest characteristic is devouring and absorption. In fact, the principle of the Rogue Stealth Spell is the same at the end of the day. It is impossible to absorb the light, creating an invisible effect. Thieves can do this with skill, and Zhang Tong can play the same role by protecting Monty.
Zhang Tong's confidence has been greatly enhanced.
Immediately, without hesitation, he avoided the outpost with the cover of the work of covering the Heavenly Demons, climbed to the top of the hill, and stood in front of the castle.
The defenses in the dark corners are impeccable. Not only are there countless guards on the perimeter, but the castle also has an enchantment. As soon as Zhang Tong climbed to the top of the mountain, he saw a layer of dark red enchantment, like a square transparent lid, completely covering the castle inside. The energy intensity of the enchantment is average, and with the power of Zhang Tong Heaven and Earth, it is completely able to break through.
However, as the heart of the DarkCorner, let alone breaking through the barriers, any sound is in danger of leading to a siege.
"What should I do?"
Zhang Tong lightly touched the obstacle with his fingers, but it was bounced away by the huge reaction force. The energy of the barrier is purely magical. Zhang Tong uses the "Elemental Contract" to elementalize the body, which is useless and cannot cross obstacles.
When there is nothing else to do.
A shadow appeared on the barrier, slowly rising and turning into a young man.
Zhang Tong's eyes lit up, "Scorpio!"
The scorpion wears a black ghost face and a huge black cloak and doesn't know what to do. Suddenly, there was a wave of enchantment. Zhang Tong's position cracked, and the barrier membrane seemed to allow a person to pass through. Zhang Tong was very surprised and looked around to make sure no one was present. He immediately went in and the barrier membrane closed automatically.
"You're too slow," the scorpion said lightly.
"How did you get in?"
Scorpio didn't answer, but a cold, hoarse voice said, "It's not important. I found the leader in the dark corners. ”
Zhang Tong followed the scorpion. When the castle knew that someone was coming, the south gate opened automatically. Zhang Tong walked into the door, in the corner of the Barbican, there were more than a dozen scattered corpses, all of them cut their throats and dug their hearts, the shape was the same, but they did not reveal any smell, and the surface of the corpse pile was covered with a layer of shadows, but for the sake of spiritual power, no matter how closely he looked, Zhang Tong could not find it.
There are more than a dozen numbers on the city walls. Everyone held torches and stood cautiously on them. They all dressed up as black-horned mercenaries. However, the scorpions and Zhang Tong who came in were not considered air. Zhang Tong knew in his heart that these mercenaries guarding the city had already been killed by the scorpions, and what stood on them were all fakes made of shadows.
Zhang Tong's back was a little cold.
Scorpio is also too abnormal!
Quietly control the entrances and exits of the castle.
"More than 70 high-explosive**, mainly in vents, sewers and some hidden places, were installed in the castle. Scorpio handed Zhang Tong a controller, "This is a detonating device that can blow up half of the castle." If you use it while running away, it will cause chaos. ”
Zhang Tong pushed away the controller, "How do I get in? I won't be a shadow." ”
The scorpion did not speak, melted to the ground, turned into a shadow, and swooped into the castle.
The six shadows were busy going to the city and continued to lead the way for Zhang Tong.
Scorpio has a cautious personality and must control the situation, which is why she is so bold. Zhang Tong didn't even ask. She confidently enters with Scorpio, using her magical powers to hide her body, keeping a distance of about 50 meters from the six shadow members.
While walking through the castle gardens, they suddenly encounter a patrol in armor and spot several people.
"Hey, gatekeeper, why don't you stand guard and come here?"
One of the shadow members asked, "Didn't you notice anything strange?"
"What's so strange?" said the patrol leader, "you'd better not be lazy. Two elders passed away today. The patrol captain was furious and was about to shoot. Don't say I didn't warn you. ”
The patrol came, and no one caught fire. They are all black elves. Black elves have strong night vision, so they don't need torches. When walking to less than 10 meters, a shadow appeared silently behind the patrol, a black cloak, a black ghost face and a full shadow, like death in the night.
Several shadows stretched out from the ground and suddenly strangled the necks of two patrol members, dozens of shadows stretched out, like tentacles, silently covering their mouths and noses, wrapping their hands and feet, the two of them could not move, staring in horror, but they were powerless to resist, and dragged directly into the corner, without sound.
In front of his companions, he didn't even notice the change at hand.
The shadows continue to spread.
The other two pathfinders were restrained and towed away.
When the patrol leader came to the front, the shadows spread even farther away, and the last two men were subdued. The patrol leader thought it was a little strange. As soon as he turned around, a shadow was like a sword, silently piercing his chest, chest, and eyes, penetrating his body without shedding a drop of blood.
Six people rushed forward in afterimages, quietly and silently using their gas to solve and deal with the patrol. The bodies were dragged into the woods, and six bodies changed and became members of the patrol. Then they continued their walk in the garden.
There were several teams in dark corners, but no one doubted the patrol. After some hardship, they finally came to the door of a temple.
"Is that it?"
Scorpio whispered, "The guards here are so powerful that they can't be killed quietly." I can disguise myself as a grown-up and bring you in. ”
Scorpio is useless in two places at once because it is too weak in two places at the same time. If you meet a master, you may be helpful. First, it becomes a dim shadow. After the facial features and body were regenerated, it suddenly turned into a middle-aged black man's elf. The Black Elves are a branch of the Elves and belong to the Middle Race. They are known for their sinister nature and mastery of dark energy.
In a previous investigation, Scorpio remembered the traits of a black elf elder and now disguised himself as an elder who had changed his name.
Zhang Tong took off his cloak, put on a helmet, covered his face, and dressed up as an ordinary soldier. He followed the scorpion into the palace. As he walked through the long corridors, he was met by many guards. The guards here are ten times stronger than the ones outside. Guards are often seen in the mid-to-late stages of the Earth Spirit. Scorpio, disguised as an older person, managed to fool the guards and was not too embarrassed.
As they prepared to enter a closed door, the two made their way through several corridors.
"Senior, please stop!"
The guards stopped them.
Scorpio's application, tone, and intonation are the same. She asked coldly, "Can't I go in?"
The bodyguards looked at each other and said, "The colonel has made it a rule that no one is allowed to approach when meeting with the envoy, including the elders. Please don't embarrass us. ”
Messenger.
What messenger?
Zhang Tong is standing guard, the messenger sent by the mastermind behind the scenes?
Scorpio is expressionless. "Please arrange a room for me, I'll wait here."
"Yes!"
The bodyguard opened a room next to him. After the scorpion closed the door, Zhang Tong put on a black cloak and checked the window first. The windows were locked and had a vent, but it was too narrow to get out.
Scorpio said next to him: "The target is talking in the secret room. I checked the chamber and blessed it with protective magic. Normal detection spells are useless, and penetration is very difficult. ”
"Not even you?"
"The probability of penetration is less than 50%."
"This is really cautious!" Zhang Tong beckoned to the scorpion, "You go out first, I have a way to spy on them." ”
Scorpio took a step back: "I'm in the castle." ”
"Why?"
"I found something. The scorpion turned around and slowly turned into a shadow. "I'll get it. ”
After saying that, it shook and disappeared.
Zhang Tong took out a few prepared precious pills from his backpack and exchanged them for mental-enhancing devices. His spirit suddenly increased by more than 100 points, and he suddenly released his spiritual power, covering a large area.
The castle is protected by a magic circle, and the spiritual energy can be easily disturbed. Zhang Tong could feel the distance within 1 mile. Because they are not skilled, the target cannot be locked into the perspective of the mind. In general, the target must be locked on with the naked eye before it can be accurately attacked with mind control.
"While the brain fluctuates greatly, there are two distinct differences." Zhang Tong felt two unusually strong mental fluctuations, "Strong spiritual level, how can there be more than one powerful soul in the dark corner?"
Zhang Tong was a little surprised.
Zhonghai City has a population of 20 million and dozens of powerful fields, 90% of whom are high-ranking officials.
Except for the black horn head, it is impossible to have the spirit of a strong man.
Zhang Tong became very cautious and carefully blended the two senses. One is the early stage of the Celestial Spirit, and the other is the middle period of the Celestial Spirit. The realm of the heavenly spirits is extremely sensitive to energy. If the Heavenly Spirit is not strong, Zhang Tong will be discovered by the other party. Even though the Celestial Spirit is powerful, I still have to be careful.
The two men seem to have just quarreled.
I could feel a little negativity in my heart.
One of them rebuked: "It's better to pay attention to it, otherwise if it's flawed, years of hard work will be in vain!"
"Two capable men died. Should we forget about it?"
"As I said, everything is in the overall interest!"
"Do you know who was commissioned? I can't refuse his request!"
“......“
Zhang Tong read the dialogue between the two men and seeped into the shallow memories respectively. In the end, he got a striking result.
The first person to speak was not from Zhonghai City. He is a powerful snake tribe who lives in a remote mountainous area more than 2,000 miles from Zhonghai City... He is a strong man born and raised in Sai Hai Province.
Have the natives infiltrated Zhonghai City?
Is Dark Corner a spy for the Green Alliance?
What amazing news!
The other is the head in the dark corner. When he talked about his client, Zhang Tong read his thoughts and found out the name of the person behind the attack from his superficial consciousness. This is the main task of risk penetration.
