"My lord, people will change! It's out there now, and it's just as a snowstorm is approaching. At such times, even if you seek support, you can't save the fire from far away. Captain Rick must have valued this, which is why he is making trouble at this moment! ”

"I believe Rick!"

"Your Lord! Don't let him be your illegitimate ......"

The butler was about to say more, but was glared back by Count Cosa.

The voice grew cold, and Xhosa spoke coldly.

"I know this, I'll deal with it, you can retreat."

"Lord Lord, please think twice, Vice Captain Luci has always been resentful because of your way of handling it......"

"Get out of here!"

The butler's mouth opened and slowly closed.

After a moment of silence, he bowed his head and bowed, and gradually retreated.

But just as he was about to leave the room, the butler suddenly seemed to remember something, looked up and said, "By the way, my lord, Dr. Mel from Snowfield Castle is here, and she wants to see you." ”

When the Count of Cossa heard this, he paused for a moment.

"So fast? I just sent out an invitation tonight, and she's here? ”

"I heard that because she was worried about her sister's safety, she was rushing here, and it happened to be ......"

Count Cossa waved his hand to stop the butler from talking.

"Got it, come and come. Tell her I'm tired and don't want to see guests tonight. ”

"Lady Lovely Lisy is also going to see you, with Dr. Mel. You know their sisters......"

Count Xhosa paused, and the mind of the lady in the dining hall who was panicked by overstart.

When this kind of thing happens, it is reasonable, and he, the owner of the manor, has to apologize.

What's more, this Ms. Alice, the background is not simple.

Sighing, Count Xhosa nodded.

"Okay, you go and call them."

"Yes."

Creak.

As the housekeeper retreated, the door closed again, and the room returned to calm.

The Count of Xhosa sat back in his seat.

When I picked up the quill pen, my hand was tight and loose, but I couldn't put down the pen.

Unbeknownst to him, however, it was behind the wall of his room.

There was a man with his ears clinging to the wall.

The man held the crossbow machine tightly in his hand, and his body tensed slightly.

It seems that the hunter is hunting, waiting for some kind of opportunity.

It is like a hungry beast, which may choose to eat people at any time.

But the writing sound that this person had been waiting for for a long time did not sound. It's hard to guess what Count Cosa is doing at the moment.

Just as the man could not bear it anymore and was about to rush out, the voice of Count Xhosa finally sounded in the room.

And cold sweat also covered his back at once.

"Come out."

These were the words of the Count of Xhosa, who had paused for a long time.

"Impossible! I came here through a secret passage, and I endured the pain without making a sound. ”

"How could this fat earl know I was here!"

"Unless...... Unless the secret passage made by the old one-eyed has already been known by the fat earl! ”

"But even so, how did the fat earl manage real-time monitoring? I had already done a check-up when I came and didn't find anything out of the ordinary. ”

"Nope! Wait a minute! ”

Fang Yi's heart suddenly moved, and he thought of something that he had overlooked.

This secret passage leads directly to the lord's bedchamber.

It stands to reason that in this case, even if it is an old one-eyed, it should not be difficult to kill Count Xhosa.

But why, the old one-eyed has not done it for so many years.

And even if it was this time, it was only when he called for foreign aid like himself and the Tailun knight that he dared to act.

Let's not mention it myself, how much exaggerated the strength of the night demon is, and Fang Yi doesn't want to delve into it.

But compared to ordinary knights, it must be much stronger.

And the Tailun Knight, although slightly weaker than himself, is also above the level.

Of course, this is only a comparison on paper, and the actual combat ability is another matter.

But even so, the lineup is still luxurious and powerful, just to kill Count Xhosa, it can be said that he used a knife to kill chickens.

"Maybe just in case...... No! Even foreign aid was invited, and it was never as simple as just in case. ”

"Could it be that Count Xhosa is actually powerful and a master who is deeply hidden?"

"Or ...... Count Xhosa has a master by his side, and he is closely guarded 24 hours a day! ”

Thinking of this, Fang Yi's originally tight hands immediately relaxed.

"I thought that the secret passage would lead to a place like the lord's study at most, but I didn't expect to arrive directly at the lord's bedroom, which gave me the idea to make a move......

"Careless, careless."

"Sure enough, because I came to the new district, even I have a contempt for it? If it were to be replaced by the old district, it would be to chop off my own hand, and I would not touch Count Xhosa. ”

"Because this kind of guy who looks like an NPC and a player is so suitable as a bait for a trap."

"However, in this dungeon, there should be no players with this kind of awareness. If it does appear, it must be the [Stalker]! ”

Taking a deep breath, Fang Yi completely calmed down.

Listen attentively and concentrate on gathering information.

Count Xhosa didn't know that he had almost gone around the Ghost Gate just now.

And after he said that, a figure had fallen silently from the shadow of the roof.

The man was dressed in black and wore no armor.

At the same time, the body is as light as a swallow, and the landing is silent.

So even Fang Yi on the other side of the wall didn't hear anything abnormal.

He wears a mask with a one-eyed pattern, which makes people unable to see his face, and faintly exudes a haughty temperament.

However, in the face of Count Cosa, he still knelt on one knee respectfully.

"Brother, I really need you to come out this time."

Count Xhosa picked up the shadow man and said solemnly.

In the tone, there is no smell of giving orders to subordinates, but there is a sense of equality.

Unbeknownst to Count Xhosa, however, his voice fell, and someone behind the wall of the room suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and his thoughts were completely clear.

The shadow man, who was half-kneeling in front of Count Xhosa, shook his head slightly.

"My lord, my mission is to protect you, not to help you remove the hidden dangers of the manor."

The Shadow Man's voice was low, with a kind of vicissitudes, somewhat similar to that of Count Xhosa.

"I know, but if Rick really betrays...... With the heavy team in hand, he will bring great disaster to the manor! ”

“…… It's none of my business, I'm only responsible for you. ”

"But it's my business! As the owner of the farm, I must ensure the stability of the manor and ensure the safety of everyone in the manor! ”

Count Xhosa stared at the shadow man with emotion, his chest rising and falling.

The two looked at each other for a long time, but they didn't give in to each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the air seemed to freeze.
