Under the dim light of the fluorite lamp, the empty hall was filled with a condensed atmosphere.

Lin An held his breath, but his mind was thinking quickly:

Judging from the damage suffered by the Shadow Warrior, if the other party can hurt the Shadow Warrior with just some residual divine power left in place, then with that person's strength, his status in the Holy See will not be lower than that of the Cardinal Archbishop - among the cultivators of the two mainstream systems, the same status and strength are the ** Master and the Golden Sword Saint.

Of course, this equation is not absolute, in terms of overall average strength, the cardinal archbishops of the Holy See are generally lower than the normal ** division and the Golden Sword Saint, and the rumored results of several encounters have also proved this-

But even so, a cardinal archbishop is not something that he and John, who has now lost the ability to protect himself, and John, who is in the elemental enlightenment period, can resist even if it is the talisman given to her by Sidney, due to the absolute restraint of the attributes, it will be greatly reduced and vulnerable.

"If only I could cast that spell now." So unless the other party happens to have the equipment to confine the space, even if Lin An can't hurt the other party, he can make the other party throw a mouse trap, so that Lin An can delay the time until the reinforcements arrive.

She secretly smiled bitterly in her heart:

In fact, even if she loses the protection of the law and spell, she still has a lot of hole cards, but whether it is the Super Demon Burst Arrow or the thing given to her by the unmet Terran legend, it is stored in her imprint space, and now due to her spiritual power, she can't take out any of them.

This lesson tells Lin An that even the strongest thing outside the body is no more trustworthy than his own strength.

The only thing they could hope for now was the lion-winged stone statue that Salin had given him.

"If you can go undetected in a short period of time, there may be a chance that the sneak attack will be successful."

Lin Anxin tensed, not noticing that John's face gradually turned cold, and he drew the sword at his waist. Looking at Lin An, who looked solemn and focused as if he was facing a great enemy, he had already made a certain decision in his heart.

The two of them who were waiting with bated breath were like great enemies, silently staring at the entrance of the underground hall, and the brief moment of the pause in each other's footsteps seemed to be like a year.

But to their surprise, the other party stood in the hall for a moment, and the sound of sizzling sounded again, and the voice gradually faded away.

Lin An and John didn't relax, because of the similar way of luring the enemy out of the hole and then returning the carbine, they had encountered many times on the battlefield, when they thought they could relax. But I didn't know that this was the most dangerous time.

But as the slow, regular footsteps faded away, faded away, and after a few more moments there was still no sound. Lin An and John glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

The other party just left?

After all, with the secret behavior of the other party appearing in the Viscount Castle, they definitely don't want to be known and take precautions in advance, so they must bury the possibility of exposing their whereabouts, so when Lin An heard the footsteps of the return. I thought that there was no chance of this narrow encounter.

But now the best time has passed, and as time passes, the atrium above may be haunted at any time, and even if the other party does it now, it is likely to alarm the rest of the castle.

Although the power in the castle was empty now, most of Lin An's companions were led away by the giant octopus. The strength of the other party can also kill people one by one, but the more traces they leave, the more likely they are to be discovered. If the other party kills on a large scale, leaving a large amount of breath to be investigated, it is tantamount to exposing -

What deserves a cardinal to go into battle in person?

Combined with the currently known clues, Lin An could guess that it was probably related to Viscount Lippi, but he couldn't guess the specific situation.

But since the other party does not show up when he occupies absolute strength. Even such a large piece of bait from the Medal Bearer team is not eaten in front of them, so for them. This means that this covert activity in Merlin should not be exposed, and secretly acting is the first place.

Lin An and John did not continue to hesitate, whether this is a trap or not, the only way for them to get out of trouble is to leave now, this underground hall is set up simply, but it is too deep underground, fighting here, I am afraid it is not enough to alarm the above, and then it will be caught in the urn, and even the companions will not know about it, it will be ridiculous.

What's more, Lin Anxin has suspicions, the lights in the underground hall have proved that someone has broken in, according to common sense, it is impossible for the other party not to investigate, even if the stone statue hides her and John's breath, the other party should also walk in and search for it.

Once the two sides meet, it is definitely an endless situation, and the reason why the other party retreats from the battle is most likely, it is very likely that the weak heart and strength are not good - in other words, the person who just came back is not the cardinal archbishop that Lin An speculated.

As soon as the thought fell, the two quickly rushed out of the tunnel, and the attic on the ground was empty, and sure enough, there were no ambushes and traps waiting for them to come up.

Lin An was depressed, and secretly said that he had missed the opportunity, opened the door, and almost ran into a person head-on. The yellow light on John's long sword was like a streamer, and when it reached the place where the opponent's neck was still an inch, it suddenly retracted.

"Lord Angus!"

"Master Lin!"

Two male voices rang out at the same time, one in amazement, and the other in shock when he was attacked.

"Angus? How are you here! ”

Lin An looked at Angus, who appeared alone in front of the attic door, his condensed expression slowed slightly, but a trace of suspicion quickly flashed in his eyes.

"I saw you and His Excellency John enter this attic on the other side of the tower, and I came to take refuge with you!"

Angus didn't seem to be surprised to see Lin An here, he was holding a harp in his arms, and he was a little out of breath in a hurry, and the long white and blonde hair that was meticulously bound in the headband was a little scattered, and there were a few traces of surprise on his face.

However, he had always been indifferent and gentle, and he only glanced at John more about being almost attacked by John's wrong hand, and Johnmu had already put away his sword at this time and nodded slightly to him.

Lin An looked in the direction he pointed, the tower was on the west side of the atrium, and it was assigned to the residence of some of the honorees, and from the direction, he could indeed see the attic very clearly.

Lin An's eyes lit up, "Besides us, have you seen anyone else?" ”

Angus saw her and John enter the attic, and perhaps happened to see the trace of the mysterious man who hadn't bumped into them face to face.

Angus shook his head in confusion. At the same time, he frowned and glanced back, the aura of the spell and the fluctuations of the fighting qi that flew into the sky flickered under the white canopy in the west.

"Let's go in first, it's not safe outside."

Angus looked at Johnm behind Lin An, he didn't forget John's vigilant reaction when he opened the door, his warm eyes were like a quiet lake, slightly rippling, as if he was puzzled:

"Or did you encounter something? Who are you looking for? ”

Lin An also looked at the sky to the west and pursed his lips slightly, and John had already answered.

"The man has left, but it's still not safe here." He had a high level of trust in Angus, explained a sentence, and turned to Lin An. "Miss, let's get out of here first and join the others."

Lin An nodded briefly, glanced at Angus, and followed John to make a quick detour against the high wall to the place where there was a shield. When they left the atrium and came to the back garden located in the east of the north of the city, the three of them were slightly relieved:

Across the castle, the people involved in the war deliberately lured the giant octopus away from the castle, and the possibility of the back garden being threatened is very small.

It's just that Lin An and John know that in addition to the threat of the giant octopus, there is likely to be another group of Holy See people lurking in the castle. Therefore, they did not dare to run around and hid in a greenhouse full of flowers and trees.

The fragrance of flowers and trees can reduce people's vigilance against the environment, and Lin An's words suddenly sounded at this moment:

"Angus, what about that servant of yours? Why isn't he by your side? ”

Lin An and John were impressed by the loyalty of the servant beside him who was taking on the name of a mercenary. The other party is not by Angus's side at this time, which is obviously unreasonable.

"He broke his leg in the middle of the rubble to protect me," Angus smiled wryly with concern, "when the giant octopus attacked the atrium." I happened to be nearby. ”

As for the rest of the matter, he doesn't need to go into details. Lin An and John can already make up for it.

John patted Angus on the shoulder as a gesture of comfort.

Lin An went through Angus's words in his mind:

There must not have been no witnesses when what he said happened, and it is very simple to prove afterwards whether it happened or not, and the possibility that Angus's words were lies can be basically ruled out, so I am afraid that his appearance in front of the attic is indeed a coincidence, and the suspicion that he has a relationship with the mysterious person they found can be ruled out.

"What the hell is going on?" Angus looked at Johnm with a slightly raised eyebrow.

John explained to him in a low voice.

Lin An walked to the side, and after walking into the natural barrier composed of flowers and trees on the other side, he avoided Angus and took out the stone statue of the cat and beast in his arms:

She came out in a hurry, except for the two stone statues, she didn't even bring the silver ring that contacted Sidney, so she could only contact Saleen in this way.

It took a while for there to be a response.

"It's me."

Salin's voice was heard, faint and short in the background music of occasional cracks and roars.

"I'm looking for Sidney." Lin An knew that Salin was not flamboyant, and obviously knew that she suddenly had something important to contact him in this situation, so he got straight to the point.

"He's casting spells with other people, and he can't pull out."

Salin replied without hesitation, looked up at the giant octopus that was shredded by a huge light net and continued to regenerate its tentacle body, and said calmly:

"There's something I can tell you," he added, after a pause, "I don't have much combat power, and I can only withdraw for the time being." ”

He didn't question Lin An about letting Sidney know about the existence of the cat and beast stone statue.

"There are traces of the Holy See in the Viscount Castle, and there is likely to be a cardinal archbishop among them, you should be careful," Lin An heard the tension of the battle situation, and could only inform the key points in a limited time, "In addition, Viscount Lippi may ......"

"Needless to say, the other party ...... It's already there! ”

Salin's voice sank, and he raised his head sharply, looking at the figure that suddenly appeared in mid-air, bringing great coercion to everyone, and muttered, "It's really bad! ”

At the same time, in the same greenhouse where Lin An was, the white-haired young man surrounded by flowers and trees also changed slightly, looked to the west, and whispered in an inaudible voice:

"The disobedient red-clothed puppy, it's really bad!"
