Chapter 469: Infiltration and Anti-Submarine
The entire castle of the Demon King is in a concave shape, flanked by attics, and the Palomian envoys live in one of the attics, while the main building is in the center. And Walker's target: the Demon King's study and office is on the sixth floor of the main building, and the Demon King's bedroom is on the seventh floor of the main building.
There is a hallway on the first floor of the attic with direct access to the main building. It was a spacious, straight, and bright corridor, with a luxurious red carpet that was worth a lot of money at first glance, and the magic lights on both sides illuminated it without any haze! But the path was clearly not for Walker—it was too conspicuous to be shadowy, and there was no way to avoid the surveillance of the maid guards waiting at the end of the hallway.
In Walker's opinion, it is more difficult to be spotted after coming out of the attic and walking through the huge courtyard to the main building.
The large and huge courtyard with its snub shrubs, its beautiful fountains, its wide roads large enough for three carriages to run side by side, its bright street lamps and its many gargoyles disguised as statues, look very beautiful. However, for Walker, these are all "hiding spots" for him to hide, and even the gargoyles disguised as statues are his hidden helpers - Walker's clothes cover Walker's life breath, so Walker is not worried that these gargoyles will find themselves.
Walker moved quickly from bush to bush.
Around the courtyard, there are watchtowers with some guards standing on them. But there were so many things for the guards on the watchtower to be aware of, and the courtyard inside the castle was not only dim, but also had too many obstacles, so Walker moved to the entrance to the main building very smoothly.
In the darkness of the night, the Shadow Assassin is invincible! No one can spot a shadow assassin hiding in the shadows - unless those people use light to dispel the darkness of the entire world.
At that time, when he finally came to the vicinity of the main building, Walker noticed a very terrifying thing: the walls of the main building were glowing!
The light is so faint that it is barely visible at night, but if you get closer, you can see that the seemingly ordinary walls are "white and shiny" even at night. This is obviously not normal.
After a closer look, Walker found that the "white and shiny" walls of the main building should be painted with something similar to "phosphor", and even the dark night without light could leave the slightest haze on the fluorescent walls - because the wall itself is a luminous object. This was clearly a shadow run against the Assassins.
Because of the walls, Walker couldn't use the shadows to climb the walls. If you want to climb a wall, you can only climb it in a real way. But as long as he thought about it a little, Walker understood that doing so was definitely looking for death!
The top floor is the Demon King's room, and no one knows how many master guards there are around the Demon King. Sneaking in quietly, you may be able to hide the perception of those demon king's guards, but if you climb the wall and climb the window so openly, you will almost expose yourself to the eyes of the demon king's guards!
Walker couldn't help but look up and cast his gaze to the windows in the main building.
There are many rooms in the main building, most of which have closed windows and only a few that are open. Although the open windows were obviously inhabited, it was obviously a good choice to enter through the windows, but seeing the walls that were also very "white and shiny" in the dark, Walker quickly gave up the idea of turning the windows.
The stakes are too great!
The guards on the watchtower are just ordinary soldiers, and even if they are discovered, they may still escape. But the words of the personal guards around the Demon King...... Judging from the previous information, there is a master-level assassin with strong perception among the personal maids of the Demon King, and the Demon King himself is a super strong man at the legendary level! Walker is sure to avoid the sight of ordinary soldiers, but if he faces a Master Assassin + Legendary Demon King, Walker feels like he is looking for death.
Walker decided to look for other ways to infiltrate.
The door to the main building was closed, and there wasn't even a crack under the door, and even if Walker had mastered the ability to walk in shadows, he wouldn't be able to pass through such a place. And even if there is a gap underneath, it is useless, and the six bright magic lights above the gate illuminate the position of the doorway very brightly.
Without alerting the guard tower, Walker felt that it would be difficult for him to enter through the gate. Not only that, but Walker also suspected that there might be one or two demon maids acting as doorkeepers behind the gate - at least there must be guards stationed inside the gates of the royal city of Palomia for a long time.
Maybe I should go back to the attic and take that hallway between the attic and the main building?
No! The corridor was so long, and there was no shelter, and even if someone had attracted the attention of the maid guards, it would have been difficult to pass through that long corridor in a short period of time.
No matter how much he thought about it, Walker couldn't find a good way. In desperation, Walker could only give up the use of "small means" and began to continue to investigate, looking for other entrances and exits.
Since the main gate is not good, then go through the small door.
Although there is very little information about the Demon King's Castle in Walker's hands, it is obviously impossible for such a large main building to have only one entrance.
As Walker expected. After making a large circle around the huge main building, Walker finally found a small door on the side of the main building that looked like it was for the people below.
Walker found the small door to be much easier to invade than the main building's gate. Although the doorway of the small gate is also lighted, due to the angle, only about a third of the guard towers can see the small door, which means that the difficulty of Walker's invasion is reduced by half! What's more, there's a rabbit hole underneath this little door! Yes, it's the kind of rabbit hole that gets Mona in and out!
It was only a small hole, but in Walker's eyes, it was enough to get in and out. The only problem is with those guards......
Walker hid in the bushes, observing the guards on the watchtower.
The defense is just too strict......
To get through the rabbit hole in the small door, someone had to distract the guards.
Walker hid in the shadows, thinking about what to do.
The most common method used by military agents is to use some small animals to cause some commotion, distract the guards, and then take the opportunity to break through. But inside the castle, Walker didn't find any "critters" that he could use. Not to mention the birds, even the most common rats have not been encountered, and the only creatures that can be called "small animals" are those Mona, in this case, what means to attract the attention of those guards? It is obviously not possible to throw stones directly, which is equivalent to telling the other party that there is a problem.
"It seems that these demons have deliberately done anti-submarine work, and they have cleaned up all the small animals that can be used."
Walker felt a little tricky.
It's just too difficult!
And Walker didn't know what was going on behind the door. If there is a doorman behind the door, then you will be discovered in an instant when you suddenly get into the rabbit hole! You have to find out if there's a doorman in the back......
Soon, Walker had a plan in his mind: let's observe for a while.
Walker lurked quietly in a bush more than twenty meters away from the small door, waiting for his moment.
It was not uncommon for an Assassin to lurk for a year or two in order to assassinate a target. As an agent, Walker naturally has a lot of patience!
For the Assassins, mission failure is just a trivial matter, as long as the person is still alive, there will be a chance next time, and the information obtained during the mission will also make the success rate of the next mission greatly increased! But if the mission fails and the person dies, then it is a real failure.
……
Walker lurked for a long time, and slowly Walker figured out the shift time of the guards on the watchtower and some patterns of movement.
The guards were mainly staring at the sky, as if the sky was the focus of the guards' attention, which made the guards ignore the monitoring of the ground. But even so, Walker didn't dare to run around under the noses of those guards.
In addition, the guards change shifts about every two hours. During a shift change, there will be a brief gap, but looking at the bright door, Walker knows that this gap is not so easy to use. And there's the problem that Walker doesn't know what's behind this door. Maybe there are guards behind the door? In that case, Walker will be spotted by the doorman inside the moment he enters the door.
The intelligence is insufficient, it is too passive.
Walker felt helpless. Just as Walker was considering whether to use a slightly more "aggressive" approach to determine if there was anyone behind the door, a Mona suddenly appeared and bounced towards the small door.
I saw Mona go straight to the small door, pushed open the rabbit hole under the small door, and walked in.
When Mona entered, Walker hurriedly watched carefully, trying to judge the situation behind the door through the rabbit hole and Mona's reaction.
The Eagle's Sharpness!
Walker's pupils shrank slightly, and he instantly saw the situation inside the rabbit hole.
The light inside the rabbit hole is not very bright, and it doesn't seem that there is much light inside the small door. When Mona entered, she looked very normal, and she didn't look to the side or greet anyone.
Maybe there's no one next to the door? If there were guards at the door, the rabbits would have reacted a little bit when they came in and out.
A gleam of joy flashed across Walker's face.
There are no doormen behind this little door! But also, this is not the main gate, that is, there are no guests to live, and the demon king will not walk through this door, so there is no doorman at the door who is responsible for opening the door.
Although he was sure of the judgment in his mind just now, Walker did not act, but still quietly hidden, waiting for Mona, who had just gone in, to come out.
Sure enough, a short time later, Mona walked out of the house with a strange can in her arms and left in a bouncing motion.
After Mona left, Walker continued to wait quietly, carefully observing the guards on the watchtower.
When Walker noticed that the guards didn't seem to be on his side, Walker grabbed a pebble and bounced it out.
The pebble slammed into the door in an arc and slammed into the door, making a "Bang!" ~" There was a crisp sound on the ground.
In the quiet of the night, the sound was a bit harsh. However, due to the distance, the guards on the watchtower did not notice the movement here, and there was no reaction from inside the door.
Really! There really isn't anybody!
After much confirmation, Walker was finally sure that there was really no one behind the door.
Since there was no one behind the door, the only thing to watch out for was the guards on the towers.
The light in front of the door is bright, and Walker can't sneak in directly with shadow walking, which also greatly increases Walker's chance of being discovered. So Walker has to wait for his chance......
Soon, the opportunity came. It was time for the guards on the watchtower to change shifts, which caused the guards to divert their attention to the other rooms, and at this moment, Walker rushed out without hesitation, took out a piece of cloth, and covered himself! obscured the overhead lights.
A shadow appeared in the light, and the shadow connected Walker to the rabbit hole.
Walker opened the unlocked rabbit hole, and then instantly turned into a shadow and slipped through the rabbit hole.
As Walker turned into a shadow, the black cloth that Walker had just used to cover it slowly fell to the ground after losing its support.
As soon as Walker got through the door, he reached out of the rabbit hole under the door, grabbed the black cloth, and quickly pulled it in. All in one go!
At this time, the guards, who had completed the shift change, were monitoring the entire castle and outside.
It took six hours for Walker to finally sneak through the small door on the side of the main building and successfully infiltrate the main building of the Demon King's Castle.
Near the door was a servant's bedroom, and behind it there was a kitchen and some room of unknown use. Walker quietly passed through the door of the servant's bedroom and made his way to the hall of the main building.
The main hall is almost four stories high, and when you look up, you can see the corridors on the second and third floors, and there are some balconies, windows, and small living rooms on the outside of the corridors. The two staircases leading to the higher floors are located in two corners of the third floor.
No one was seen in the hall.
A flash of light flashed in Walker's pupils, and by detecting the effect of the magical aura, Walker observed the situation in the hall. Aside from the two gargoyles next to the stairs, no other magical effects were found, and there were no magic traps or alarms or anything like that.
Although the security is high outside, there is hardly any security inside the house. This made Walker somewhat relieved.
After taking a closer look, Walker quietly stepped forward, carefully observing the gargoyle and making his way up the stairs.
Gargoyles are a product of alchemy, and a sleeping gargoyle resembles an ordinary statue and has a special reaction to life. If there is life in the vicinity, the gargoyle will quickly come to its senses, but if it is just some dead object passing by the gargoyle, the gargoyle will usually not react.
Walker's clothes can block his vitality and presence, but if the movement is too loud, it can still wake the gargoyle awake. Once the gargoyle wakes up, it doesn't care if you're a "life" or not.
In order not to alarm the gargoyles, Walker's movements were light.
Soon, Walker walked up to the gargoyle and gently stepped up the stairs.
Everything looks very smooth. But as Walker walked up to the second floor, suddenly Walker heard a soft noise! In the quiet of the night, the sound sounded like thunder in Walker's ears!
Without hesitation, Walker launched the shadow stealth and disappeared into the shadows in an instant.
Shortly after Walker vanished, a block of stairs was suddenly lifted! A Mona poked her head out of it and looked around.
There was a secret compartment inside the staircase, and in the secret compartment was Mona's warm nest, which contained a soft quilt quilt and some snacks that served as snacks, and Mona slept in it. When someone passes up the stairs, no matter how slight its movements, it will be as conspicuous as thunder in Mona's ears, so Walker, though he is already careful, still awakens the sensitive rabbit.
However, Mona, who was woken up, looked around for a long time, but did not find the source of the sound that had just woken her up.
"Mona?" Mona was a little confused. Is it a delusion?
After thinking for a moment, Mona pulled up the door of her room, closed it, and lay back into her warm nest.
After a while, Walker emerged from the shadows.
Looking at the floor and the stairs beneath his feet, Walker felt a tingling in his scalp! These rabbits are hiding under the floor?
Those rabbit long ears are clearly not an ornament. Even if you move slightly, if you step directly over the heads of the rabbits, it's almost impossible not to wake them up - unless you don't touch the floors at all.
The rabbit didn't seem to notice anything unusual just now, but it was just his own luck, and luck is not something "trustworthy", and Walker didn't dare to fight for luck anymore. However, to Walker's trouble, Walker found himself unable to tell which floors were hiding rabbits!
All the floors looked the same, especially the stairs, which seemed to lift up every step.
What should I do now?
If you use the shadows to sneak around, you can get through the stairs without alerting the rabbits. But the problem is that the stairs are too long, and with Walker's ability, it's okay to "lurk" in the shadows for a long time, but if it's a long-distance shadow "walk", Walker can't bear it.
Gotta find a way through here.
Walker looked around. Soon, Walker was staring at the railing of the upstairs hallway.
Pregnant! It's good not to touch those floors.
Walker pulled a rope with hook claws from his bosom, swung it twice, and threw it out!
When the rope flew to the position of the railing, Walker pulled his hand, and the rope stopped under Walker's pull, and grabbed directly on the handrail.
Walker licked his lips and began to climb up the rope.
Soon, Walker climbed the stairs one by one and reached the third floor directly! However, the staircase after the third floor was not exposed, but it didn't make much difference to Walker.
Walker leaned on the rope claw, threw it out, grabbed the handle of the stairs directly, and climbed up one layer at a time.
Soon, Walker made it to the fifth floor of the main building. However, just as Walker was standing on the handrail of the stairs, about to continue climbing, a staircase on the stairs next to him suddenly opened, and a Mona held an empty cookie box, stood up from it, and looked at Walker standing on the handrail in amazement: "Mona? ”
Walker instantly pulled out a dagger and threw it at Mona!
"Mona!" Mona hurriedly raised the cookie box in her hand.
I saw that the dagger thrown by Walker stabbed directly into the cookie box in Mona's hand, knocking Mona directly out, making Mona's nest a mess, and cotton wool flying all over the sky.
Walker didn't know what was wrong with him, he didn't understand how he was discovered, but Walker knew that his infiltration had failed.
After discovering that his infiltration failed, Walker chose to flee without hesitation.
I saw Walker's figure suddenly split in two. One figure stayed where it was, while the other silently climbed over the guardrail of the staircase and jumped quickly.
In the dark compartment of the staircase, Mona looked at the figure standing on the railing, and then at the biscuit box in her arms and the dagger in the biscuit box, her face full of confusion.
After a long while, Mona finally woke up and let out a fierce scream: "Mona!!! ”
