Bishop immediately took off one of the cuffs on his left sleeve, swirled it, took out a ball of paper from it, and when it was unfolded, it became a palm-sized translucent map, which was the floor plan of Blue Irises Castle.

Lin An couldn't help but glance at Bishop's right hand - that button contained a map of the county capital?

"This is where His Highness John lives, this is the front door, the back door, the back garden...... This is the path to the back garden...... This is the sentry post, and the arrow tower...... The routes they're most likely to move to are here, here, and here......"

Bishop was more familiar with the distribution of Blue Iris Castle than the people who lived in it, and if it weren't for Lin An's strong memory, he would almost not be able to keep up with his speed.

"Let's go."

After listening, Lin An mentioned Bishop, "I need you to recognize people." ”

Bi Sharp was caught off guard and was pulled by Lin An, and was shocked in his heart: What a great strength!

Lin An was resolute, his figure floated, and said to Princess Elizabeth: "I will bring little John back, Your Highness, please be careful." ”

"I'll hide it, you don't have to worry about me."

Princess Elizabeth clasped her hands on her body and said earnestly, "The muse is above, little John will ask you, I hope it will be smooth." ”

……

Without an archmage in charge, the high walls of the Blue Iris Castle were nothing but nothing to Lin An.

Lin An flew directly into the Blue Iris Castle + vestibule with Bishop, the guards stuck to their posts, and the patrols looked no abnormal.

"As I thought, the other party is sneaking in!"

Bishop whispered excitedly:

"They can't have too many men, they may just buy off a few servants or guards. Open the joint to the main building for them, if that's the case, they shouldn't have had time to transfer His Highness yet! ”

"There's only little John in the castle?"

"Yes, the former Grand Duchess has gone to the Dolimon Lie Mountain Villa on the Lidai River to escape the summer, and she has been on the road for more than half a month, this is her habit."

Bishop understands the reason why Lin An asked:

"It is precisely in order to avoid being left behind and being seen through today's actions that the lady decided to leave His Royal Highness behind and did not transfer to other places - I thought it was just less than two magics, but I didn't expect ......"

"Say so. The target is not just John Jr. Also included the Grand Duchess? ”

"Yes, it's quite possible."

Roughly confirming that this incident was not an internal leak of the intelligence system, Bishop was in a state of shock, and it is safe to say.

A few sentences in between conversations. Lin An had already taken Bishop to the atrium. The main building where the Grand Duke and his children lived was here.

Not surprisingly. Little John is no longer here.

Eight people disappeared together, including his grandmother and maid who served him.

Lin An smelled a faint smell of blood in the warmly decorated room. It is covered by a rich spice flavor.

Bishop is also an expert in this area, and he found the body hidden in the cupboard one step before Lin An.

There were a total of four maids, and the person who started the action was very neat and ruthless, and directly broke the neck bone.

Lin An: The smell of blood they smelled was still left by a maid who fell while escaping.

Bishop found the place where the maid had fallen, and the intruder was very careful, not only wiping away the blood, but also covering it with a piece of carpet.

"The corpse was also tightly wrapped in the bed, and if you don't look carefully in the closed cupboard, you may not be able to smell the smell of the corpse until two days later."

Bishop quickly looked through it a few times, took off his gloves, rolled up the dirty gloves and put them in his pocket, and said solemnly:

"This technique is not like a warrior raised by ordinary nobles, it is more like a killer, or a specially cultivated secret force."

"In Stuart, there aren't many families that have the ability to cultivate this kind of person." Lin Andao.

"Not much, just a few."

Bishop affirmed:

"Although the nobles will secretly cultivate force, the dark world is not so easy to set foot into, and there must be a certain background. Moreover, it is impossible to train this kind of killer with an obvious style in ordinary training, and the person who does it is a real killer, and there must be a lot of lives on his hands. ”

"What do you think they're using this kind of person for? Do you still want to transfer the suspicion to the killer organization? ”

"Since the demise of the Assassin Brotherhood, many killer organizations have been lurking. With the lessons of the Assassin Brotherhood ahead, no Killer Order would dare to target the rulers. ”

Bishop shook his head:

"I think the other party dispatched this kind of people, probably because they are more proficient in infiltration, and it is not easy for them to not alarm the outer fortress so far."

Blue Iris Castle is a typical remodeled castle, its predecessor was originally a military fortress, and then it has been renovated and expanded several times, adding many living areas and facilities, and thus demolishing and reducing some of the military castle defenses.

However, no matter how it is rebuilt, the thick wall of the military fortress is difficult to change, which is the most basic outline of the castle, and if even the city wall is completely demolished, it is no different from the complete demolition and reconstruction.

When Lin An looked at the map, he already felt that the walls of the Blue Iris Castle were more than ordinary castles, and they were divided into four rings in total.

These are the traces left by several expansions.

Among them, the outer fort is thickened on the outside, and there is a slightly lower skirt wall, and the inner wall of the outer castle is the inner castle, which constitutes the inner castle in people's common sense, and the inner fort surrounds the atrium and the back garden, separating the vestibule, which is equivalent to another small castle in the castle.

Further inside the inner fort, the blue iris castle is different from other castles, with an extra layer of the fort, forming a small circle in the inner fort, surrounding the main building and other important buildings.

This inner wall is the original body of the original military fortress.

That is, from the outer city wall to the main building, there are at least three gates: the outer gate, the inner gate, and the gate of Fort Lee.

Don't look at Lin An coming in all the way unimpeded, that's because she is already an archmage.

Bisha told him that the outer and inner forts of Blue Iris Castle were manned with mages who were monitored in shifts 24 hours a day, and that many parts of the castle were guarded by guards.

The specific distribution, Bishop did not say. But judging from his attitude, at least there are no dead ends, and it is impossible to let foreign enemies invade at will.

In Lin An's opinion, it is not difficult to say that it is difficult to invade the Blue Iris Castle, but it is not easy to say that it is not easy:

It's as easy as Lin An This time, an archmage is enough, no matter how thick the wall and how closely the magic circle is monitored, she discovered it in advance, and it is almost the same as nothing.

But the Master wants to invade the Blue Iris Castle, as Bishop said. Figure out guò this layer by layer of levels and surveillance. It's not an easy task.

Of course, if you can pass through the three gates and invade the main building, then the rest of the matter is very simple.

This is where the Grand Duke and his wife lived. Most of the servants are maids. Soldiers on patrol will hardly enter Fort Lee. so as not to disturb the Grand Duchess and the maids-in-waiting.

"It seems that the other party has made up his mind to complete this invasion without disturbing the entire castle."

Lin An said lightly, "There were fewer people coming in than I expected. ”

The man whom Bishop had placed in the castle had already been charged. However, the castle has been calm so far, which shows that the opponent is not only elite, but also far from strong enough to resist the protective forces in the castle.

"Yes, it's likely that the other party is still lurking in the castle." Bishop's eyes lit up.

While talking, Lin An was not idle.

While Bishop was examining the body, Lin An also found a bib, the delicate cut of the bib and the milk stains on it had already explained its original owner.

"Map."

Taking the map that Bishop took out, unfolding it, turning over the back, Lin An took out magic ink and pen, and drew a fine magic array on the back of the map.

Then Lin An took out a silver basin from the space, condensed clear water in the air, and then put the bib into the silver basin along with the map.

“…… Detect targets. ”

After a spell, the map slowly surfaces and a red dot appears on the map.

"Little John in the back garden." Lin Andao.

Her talent in the prophecy system is not low, not to mention the things that little John used as the target, and it is easy to cast this spell.

"That's not right!"

Bishop also glanced at it and exclaimed, "I remember this location, there happens to be a secret passage leading to the outside of the city - only a few people know the existence of this secret passage!" ”

The scope of suspicion of the thief has narrowed suddenly.

Even Bishop began to suspect the widow of the former Grand Duke, who had been in the palace for the summer.

Lin An is not like the men in this world, who habitually despise women's abilities, and has already included the Grand Duchess in the category of suspicious candidates, which is not surprising.

"Where's the entrance?"

Hearing Lin An's inquiry, Bi Sharp smiled bitterly.

"This secret passage was originally dug for escape, and once the mechanism at the entrance is opened, it cannot be opened again, this is to block the pursuers."

"I'm a mage." Lin An reminded.

Bishop was in a trance and hurriedly pointed out where the entrance was.

The entrance is in a utility room at the back of the main building.

When Lin An heard this, it was not difficult to find, and said, "You stay, find out the situation, and I'll chase them." ”

Bishop didn't say a word, and in front of Lin An, he was not qualified to object.

After Lin An left, Bishop wiped off the map left by Lin An, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, as if he could smell something, slightly intoxicated.

Then, he straightened his expression and carefully hid the map that Lin An had touched in his inner pocket on his chest.

……

Of course, Lin An didn't know what happened after she left.

Without Bishop, Lin An can finally let go of his hands and feet, and he doesn't have to worry about exposing his strength in front of outsiders.

A person like Bishop has turned it into instinct to observe words and emotions and gather information, and he is well-informed, and it is even more dangerous to expose his strength in front of such a person than in front of a knowledgeable mage.

Most people don't like to be in the same space as the intelligence chief, and Lin An is no exception.

After leaving the main building, Lin An dived directly into the ground and pursued from the ground to the location marked by the previous map.

The material used by the previous Grand Duke to build the secret passage was hard black rock, and there were no other tricks, and Lin An could directly enter the secret passage from the underground.

In order not to startle the snake and let Little John have an accident, before entering, Lin An wrapped himself with a space ball.

The intruders in the secret passage did not notice that after the ground at the turn behind them rippled slightly, a small black dot like dust appeared on the ground.
