While fighting on the frontal battlefield, Julien also led the mongoose team into the depths of the castle.

After hundreds of years of erosion by the abyss, the castle is no longer what it used to be. The deeper you go, the stranger the situation becomes.

Some spaces don't look unusual, but when you return the same way, you find that they are not the same passage at all. There are also stairs that are obviously going down, but when they go down, they find that the place where they are is actually on the upper floor.

Spatial confusion like this kept happening, and Julien's brow furrowed deeply.

"It's not good, if you go on like this, the structural diagram given by Viscount Errios will lose its effect sooner or later." Julien couldn't help but say.

"This place has been eroded by the abyss for too long, and I'm afraid it won't be long before this place becomes a part of the abyss itself." Scout Captain Zorro had been in a similar place before, but the complexity of the castle was not comparable to what he had experienced before.

"Is this an illusion effect?" Julien clearly prefers real fights, and when it comes to the occult realm, it's not what he's good at.

"Partly yes, but in essence, this is the phenomenon of the abyss, and the mental insanity and the dislocation in the objective world are the manifestations of the abyssal erosion." Zorro explained.

Julien scratched his head and said as if giving up: "It's incomprehensible...... Never mind...... Are we heading in the right direction? We need to find our target as soon as possible, things are not going well on Ode's side. ”

"Generally correct, as long as we don't fall into the abyss hollow, there should be no danger of getting lost." "As things stand, fortunately, the eroded centre is far away from us and relatively safe." ”

Julien pondered for a moment, then said, "Don't let the scouts and the mongoose team be scattered anymore, everyone is together, otherwise it will be too much trouble once it is divided." ”

At this moment, the frontmost team member suddenly retreated, raised his right hand and clenched his fist, constantly shaking.

This means that there are more than ten enemies in front of you.

"Hidden!" Julien commanded softly, then tiptoed to the front and peeked in.

There were obviously more than ten monsters in the eye, they were lined up in a long line, trotting through the passage in front of them, the number was estimated to be about thirty, it seemed that they had received orders to move, under normal circumstances, monsters would not run on this scale.

After a while, after confirming that there was no trace of the monster again, Julien lifted his guard.

"Looks like Oder's side has managed to get the attention of these monsters." Zorro said.

"There are too many of them, just here we have seen no less than 150 monsters to support, before the contact was interrupted, Ode reported that the hedgehogs in the hall had gathered at least two thousand monsters to besiege them, and now I don't know how many." Julien looked a little worried.

After entering the abyss-stricken area, the text message failed again, and now neither side could understand each other's situation.

"These monsters are deliberately hiding to avoid our detection......" Zorro's face is not very good-looking, and if you want to count it, this is also his dereliction of duty.

"Apparently there is a high-level demon commanding them, maybe the Gargoyle King, maybe the new Abyss Lord." "It's not your fault, it's the opponent's home stadium after all, and it's too easy to hide your tracks. ”

That being said, it does not improve the current situation.

"Let's move on, if it's the original terrain, we should be close to the goal." Julien continued.

However, contrary to expectations, the phenomenon of abyssal erosion became more and more serious, and the most frustrating time was to send the entire mongoose team directly to a bell tower on the roof, and when they saw the dusk of the last quarter moon, the morale of the mongoose team fell to the bottom.

Thankfully, Julien realizes that the text message doesn't have any effect, and concludes that the mongooses didn't actually leave the castle's interior, and that all of this was just an illusion.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for them to return to the interior of the castle and continue on their way to their goal.

No one knew what would happen if they jumped straight from the bell tower to the roof, and Julien didn't want to try it.

"Looks like we're about to get there." Julien had a diagram of the castle in his hand, and compared to the lot he had already walked, it was clear that the old study was not far from here.

"It's harder than you think...... Zorro said with a wry smile.

"Still, it's worth it!" Julien put away the structure diagram and said, "Perhaps, the Black Tulip Brigade will become the first player organization in the world to be able to gain their own territory!" ”

He turned his head and said to Zorro with a smile, "Knights of the Black Tulip, don't you think this name is more pleasant?" ”

In a feudal era, territory was undoubtedly the most important resource, and countless players around the world tried to become a lord in this new world, but never heard of success.

This is also a matter of course, as an outsider, even if they feel that they are better than those feudal lords, it is impossible for them to be taken seriously by the real nobles, let alone obtain a feud.

High-ranking warriors such as Julien and Minter will be respected accordingly, but in the eyes of the nobles, they are just a force that can be used.

Feudal lords have their own rules of the game, and not just anyone can participate in them.

But Viscount Elrios gave the Black Tulip Brigade such a chance.

Once Viscount Elrios was restored to the title of count, then the Knights would naturally give him the corresponding territory near Fort Colón. And as a trade, it is not very difficult to divide a knight's county under an earldom.

This is the fundamental reason why Julien works so hard.

He knew that Agni couldn't stay in Fort Colon for long, but after knowing Agni's potential, he armed him so hard, was it really purely because of friendship?

Maybe there is part of the friendship factor, but more importantly, he wants to add as many cards as possible to himself in order to ensure that the Black Tulip Brigade can successfully complete the mission of Viscount Elrios.

And Agni's performance so far also proves that these investments are worth it.

Now, the frontal battlefield where the fire is located has firmly attracted the attention of the gargoyles in the castle, and the detachment led by Julien himself is only one step away from the goal!

From the time Julien took Viscount Elrios's line, until now, the Black Tulip Brigade has spent no less than a million gold Echo, and if it weren't for the last time thanks to the fire, it would have been impossible to open the pot now. Coupled with some efforts that cannot be measured by money, Julien can be said to have put all his net worth together.

All this is just to become a nobleman who really controls the power of this world.

While Julien was imagining the future, an unexpected situation arose ahead.

"Captain! Come and see! There's something weird here! ”

Julien and Zorro glanced at each other and hurried forward.
