Chapter Ninety-Two: The Night Dark Wind Sneaks into the Manor
Taking advantage of the fact that Jeff Grant did not know that Tyson and Goethe had been killed, Stern went to the Rose Manor to assassinate him overnight. It has been nearly twenty years since the establishment of the Flame Mercenary Group, and in the past twenty years, Jeff Grant has led the members of the mercenary group to be domineering and skillful, and soon swelled into the largest mercenary group in Yunmeng City, and he has amassed a lot of wealth because of this.
Stern rode Little Ash for two hours to the gate of the Rose Manor, the gate of the Rose Manor was tightly closed, and there was a magic crystal lamp every five meters on the wall, and the magic crystal lamp was covered with a special cover, and there was an iron sheet on the side, which would not be extinguished even if it was windy and rainy.
Jeff Grant's superficial scenery is infinitely exchanged for other people's blood and sweat, so he has made a lot of enemies in the past twenty years, Stern found that the important entrances to the manor are guarded by mercenaries, those mercenaries are fully armed and wearing uniform armor and helmets, it seems that Jeff Grant is also worried that someone will sneak into the manor in the middle of the night to assassinate him.
It was midnight now, and the guards in the manor would not relax for a while, and once someone climbed over the wall and entered, they would be discovered immediately, so Stern planned to wait patiently outside the manor for two or three hours before starting to start.
At this time, Xia was lying on the bed sleeping, Stern didn't wake him up, just quietly lay on the other half of the bed, closed his eyes and began to rest, only less than two hours to start working, he had to keep his best state and sharp enough only in this way that it was possible to successfully remove the threat from the Flame Mercenary Regiment faced by his family, if their family wanted to continue to gain a foothold in Cloud City, Jeff Grant must be dealt with tonight, so Stern has an important mission to succeed tonight and not fail.
After resting in the fairy house for two hours, Stern's energy recovered a lot, he casually took a bunch of grapes from the storage space, and after eating it, he felt that the whole person was immediately refreshed, and then he came to the central control room, observing the situation outside through the large screen on the wall, through the gap between the stone pillars of the wall, the mercenary standing guard on the opposite side of the wall was lowered and seemed to be asleep.
Stern came to stand outside the wall, took out a masked scarf and tightly encircled his face, revealing only one pair of eyes, and then reached out and put the hat with his clothes attached from behind to his head. At this time, Stern almost completely blended into the night under the cover of black clothing.
Like a nocturnal black cat, he quietly rolled over and entered the wall, sneaking towards the castle-like house under the cover of night, because the houses in the Rose Manor were made of stone, and the walls were slightly uneven, which provided a lot of convenience for Stern to sneak into the castle, he used a dagger to pry open the window on the second floor and carefully turned over and got in.
There was no light in the house, and Stern groped his way forward very slowly, and at this time, the voice of the space administrator Xiaoxin suddenly sounded, "Master, the big screen in the central control room has night vision function, you can take a look in first."
Under Xiaoxin's reminder, Stern entered the central control room again, and at this time, the display on the large screen on the wall of the central control room was completely different from before, and it was estimated that Xiaoxin had turned on the night vision function, and he could completely see the scene outside.
It is a spacious living room, with a delicate wooden sofa and dining table, some beautiful oil paintings on the wall, and a fireplace on the south side of the living room that burns wood to raise the temperature in the winter, and a tall wooden door next to the fireplace.
After fully understanding the layout of the living room, Stern left the central control room and returned to the living room, where he began to repeatedly walk around the obstacles in the living room towards the wooden door.
Stern came to the side of the wooden door, reached out and grabbed the handle of the wooden door, and gently opened a crack, but fortunately the wooden door was not locked on the outside, otherwise it would not have been possible to enter the castle through the living room. Outside the living room was a hallway, brightly lit and mercenaries standing guard.
Stern wanted to kill as little as possible to sneak in as low a as possible, but at the moment it seems impossible, his living room is in the south of the castle, this south corridor is guarded by two mercenaries on the left and right, he must walk along the corridor to the left and then turn right to reach the west corridor, if you want to avoid being discovered, you must unknowingly solve the two mercenaries on the left and right, which is a very difficult challenge.
Stern noticed that the mercenary on the right was closer to the living room, standing guard at this time, and the mercenary on the left was sleeping with his head down, and it seemed that it was not impossible to go to the west corridor. Stern lightly touched the mercenary on the right, quickly stretched out his arms from behind him, covered the mercenary's mouth with his left hand, and twisted his head with his right hand, only to hear a 'click', the mercenary was solved before he could speak, and he slowly dragged the solved mercenary to the living room under the table covered with cloth and hid.
After dealing with a mercenary, Stern went to the hallway again, touched the sleeping mercenary on the left, and used the same method to deal with the mercenary, and then dragged the mercenary's body into the living room and hid it again.
The two mercenaries solved it fairly smoothly and did not make a big fuss, the key reason is that the second half of the night is the time when people are most likely to get sleepy, and it is much easier to do it at this time than at other times.
Now that the south corridor was unguarded, Stern walked out of the living room again and walked towards the left side of the corridor, and after reaching the end of the corridor, he gently looked towards the west corridor, and there were also two mercenaries guarding the west corridor, one of whom was standing next to him, less than two meters away, Stern easily dealt with the mercenary and dragged him to the south corridor, and then dragged him from the south corridor to the living room.
In the brightly lit corridor, the black nightcoat could no longer be hidden, and Stern picked one of the three mercenaries who was about his size and took off his clothes and put them on himself, and then he swaggered out and walked straight towards the other mercenary in the western corridor.
The mercenary watched someone walk towards him, turned his head to look at it, and found that it was his own person, so he didn't look too closely, and when Stern walked in front of him, he found that the person who came was very angry, and just as he was about to ask, Stern didn't give him a chance to speak, and Stern continued to drag the mercenary into the living room as before.
Stern's mood has never been as excited as tonight, he has done many assassination missions when he was on Earth, but tonight in this otherworldly continent of Cadia, Stern still experienced the excitement and nervousness of the first assassination mission.
Next, he had to start going into the rooms in the west corridor one by one to look for Jeff Grant's traces, and it was much easier to move without mercenaries guarding him.
