Chapter 48: An Increasingly Terrible Conspiracy, the Secret Room of the Marquis's Mansion.
"I'm sorry, Rubud, but I want you to go back to this sad place. ”
At night, somewhere in the city of Hermann, more than a dozen people gathered, one of them was Rubold Lorez, and the person who spoke was a handsome man with glasses and a gentle manner, and this person looked at Rubold with a smile on his face.
"If it weren't for you, you wouldn't be alive now. ”
Hearing the man's words, Rubold humbly lowered his head, which showed the status of this man.
"That incident back then, I underestimated Krosa's ability, which led to the sacrifice of your family, I hope you can forgive me. ”
"Don't dare, my lord, what happened back then was that I was incapable and failed to fulfill the great trust of Your Majesty and Your Excellency, and now I still have the opportunity to continue to serve Your Majesty and Your Excellency, which is really an honor. ”
"Good, I'm looking forward to your performance in this operation. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
"Motozzo, have there been any changes to the defense of the city and outside the city? ”
"Lord Hui, just like your plan, Heilmann City is now under martial law, Wayne has also been placed under house arrest, and the city defense has now been taken over by Hesses, according to the news from Neiying, at dusk, the troops directly belonging to Jiawen have arrived outside the city. ”
"Well, very good, it seems that the previous letters have worked very well. ”
"My lord, I don't understand why you were so sure that those letters would work. ”
"Speaking of which, I really owe this to one person. ”
Hearing the question, the bespectacled man smiled, much to the puzzlement of the rest of the room.
"Adam Zelard, I really should be thankful for him, if he hadn't come back suddenly, this plan would have been completely different. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Gavin is suspicious by nature, except for himself, the whole kingdom, I am afraid that he only believes in Krosa alone, so I have only done one thing over the years, centrifugation. ”
Originally, Jiawen would not necessarily do anything after receiving the first letter, but Adam's return made the letter that had been prepared for two years come in handy. ”
"And Don Vomilav, who was eager to make a contribution in front of Gavin, helped me solve the time bomb of Adam Zelard as soon as he received the letter. ”
This made the first letter, which would not have played a big role, completely ignited the suspicion in Jiawen's heart. ”
"At that time, after the second letter was delivered, I prepared a third letter at the same time, and through Hester's hand, I contained the actions of Morpheus and the others. ”
"Just imagine, the previous generation of brave people was murdered, the previous generation of sword saints was unjustly imprisoned, and then the current brave people were placed under house arrest, and Jiawen, who held the first letter, would he still be able to sit still?"
"That's why, after Adam Zerald's return, I started planning this time. ”
When everyone present heard this, they couldn't help but send chills down their spines, and with only three letters, they played with the high-level of the kingdom in the palm of their hands, how terrifying this kind of scheming was.
Sensing the gaze of the others, the bespectacled man smiled and turned his gaze to Rubud.
"Rubud, your mission this time is very simple, on the day of Adam Zelard's execution, you must rescue Adam Zelard, and if you can, try to expose your identity as much as possible. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
Others, on the other hand, continue to act according to the previous plan. ”
"Yes. ”
With that, the bespectacled man got up and raised his glass, and when the others saw this, they all got up and raised their glasses.
"All for the good of the Empire. ”
"All for the good of the Empire. ”
After leaving Morpheus, Anson took advantage of the darkness to come back to Hester's mansion and secretly observe the heavily guarded mansion.
"Falcon's Eyes"
"[Essence of Magic]"
After using the skill, Anson couldn't help frowning, because after his observation, the bright and dark sentinels in the Hester Mansion were far beyond Anson's imagination.
"A marquis's mansion is actually on guard like this, if it is not weird, then there are ghosts, and I don't know if Geroyd has sneaked in. ”
Thinking of this, Anson cast his eyes on the hot spring in the garden, it doesn't matter if he doesn't look at it, this look, Anson's eyes are almost scared out.
At this time, Geroyd was sitting in the pavilion next to the hot spring, leisurely admiring the flowers in the garden.
"Nima, are you just admiring the flowers there, are the guards blind?"
As soon as Anson's words fell, a patrol of guards walked in the direction of the fountain, and Anson was shocked to see this, but Geroyd was still there admiring the flowers.
And when the guards passed by the fountain, they didn't even look at Geroyd, and walked straight over.
"What the hell?"
Anson rubbed his eyes and looked at Geroyd like a ghost, he couldn't understand why the guards didn't pay attention to Geroyd.
"Forget it, don't care, let's go first. ”
With that, Anson took out four magic crystals and held them in his hands.
"[Breath Concealment]"
"[Smell Dissipate]"
"[Surrounding Assimilation]"
"[Auditory Enhancement]"
"[Perception Enhancement]"
After unleashing his skills, Anson tossed the four magic crystals in his hand.
I saw that after the four magic crystals were thrown, the magic crystals floated directly in the air, and then the four magic crystals surrounded Anson's body and rotated rapidly.
After the magic crystals rotated for a while, the four magic crystals exploded instantly, turning into powder and floating around Anson, and Anson's figure disappeared directly at this time.
Anson looked at the magic crystal dust around him, which made him suddenly think of one of his favorite anime before he traveled back, the optical camouflage in Mobile Suit Gundam.
"I really don't know how those people came up with these technologies that are more convenient than magic, and why such convenient technologies are completely unknown now. ”
After several uses, Anson felt more and more the horror of these ancient techniques learned in the tower, but the more he so, the more he couldn't figure out why these techniques were lost.
Although he couldn't figure it out, Anson didn't dwell too much on the matter, and rushed directly towards the Marquis's mansion.
Anson quickly sneaked into the courtyard of the mansion and came to the pavilion next to the fountain in the garden, and when he approached Geroyd, he finally understood why the guards would ignore Geroyd's existence.
Because even if Geroyd was right in front of Anson's eyes, Anson wouldn't have noticed Geroyd's existence at all, if it weren't for Anson's previous use of [Magic Essence] and seeing Geroyd here, I'm afraid that even he would have ignored Geroyd directly.
Coming to Geroyd's face, Anson waved his hand, and the magic crystal dust in front of him spread out to both sides, revealing his figure.
"Little friend, you really have a lot of tricks. ”
Geraloyd looked at Anson who appeared in front of him and said to Anson with a smile.
"That's not as good as yours, the means to make yourself non-existent. ”
"It's just that the use of skills is better than yours, and with your talent, sooner or later you will surpass me. ”
"Where next?"
"Naturally, I went to the study. ”
With that, Geroyd got up and swaggered towards the mansion.
Seeing this, Anson waved his hand again, and after the magic crystal dust hid his figure again, he followed Geroyd closely and walked towards the mansion.
After the two entered the mansion, Geroyd led Anson to the study.
"I was invited by Hester to come here before, but I didn't expect it to be the second time I came here. ”
Upon entering the study, Geraloyd shrugged his shoulders and walked straight to the desk and began rummaging.
After Anson lifted the magic crystal dust, he directly took out the purple powder and poured it into the air.
"No wonder you can find our stronghold, the real dust, you have such a rare item. ”
Seeing the purple dust, Geroyd recognized it at a glance and said with some surprise.
"Of course, this kind of good prop that can turn other people's things into my own, I naturally have to prepare. ”
“.....”
Hearing Anson's words, Geloyd was speechless for a while, shook his head, and continued to rummage for clues.
At this time, the dust had already stayed in front of a bookshelf in the study.
"[Trap Lifted]"
Anson came to the bookshelf to use his skills, only to see that behind the bookshelf in front of him, there was a sound of a machine, and then the bookshelf in front of him was split into two and opened.
And when the bookshelf was opened, a strong wave of magic power came out of it, which made Anson instantly alert.
And Geloyd, who was looking for clues at the desk, also came to Anson's side vigilantly after feeling the magic fluctuations.
When the bookshelves were fully opened, Anson and the others were shocked when they saw the secret room behind the bookshelf.
"What do you think?"
Anson asked, glancing at Geroyd, frowning and contemplative.
"Although I may not find any clues on this trip, it can be regarded as an unexpected reward. ”
"You mean to move him out?"
"As the saying goes, thieves don't go empty, you even use the dust of the appearance of reality, and you don't take something back to your roots. ”
"That's true, but take everything inside, aren't you afraid that you will startle the snake?"
"It's not so much to scare the snake as to lure the snake out of the hole, and the clues are difficult to find now, but if Hester takes away the things here, if Hester directly sends someone to track them down, it means that he has a clear conscience, but if he is silent, then it is considered to confirm his position. ”
"What about you liar? If you want to take it, you can say you want to take it, don't really think I don't know anything, these things in it, even if Hester is a nobleman, it is forbidden, as long as we take these away, he can only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach. ”
"I know it's nonsense, just take it, and by the way, see if there's anything else in it. ”
Geloyd gave Anson a blank look, then walked straight into the chamber and waited until the two of them had swept the chamber of secrets before preparing to leave.
"Wait a minute. ”
As soon as Geroyd reached the door of the chamber, Anson suddenly called out to him.
"How..."
Geroyd turned around and saw Anson looking at the corner of the secret room, so he followed Anson's line of sight, and before he could finish his words, he was stunned.
"It is. ”
