186. Zombie Duke

The four stone tablets on the bodies of the four kill targets, each the size of a fist, and the individual pieces are irregularly shaped, and when held in the hand, the system will not show any information about the item. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It is only when the four stone slabs are put together that they become a kind of square, and the lines on the stone slabs fit together to become the family crest of the Duke's Palace, a shark with a large mouth open.

At the same time, the system also gives a brief introduction to this complete slate:

【Mysterious Slate】

[Usage: sundries]

[Note: Please inlay this thing into a groove that allows it to be inlaid ......]

This thing is used to unlock the finale of the script scene 'Eternal Heart', and the groove that can inlay it is located at the bottom of the castle, a heavy stone door in the deepest part of the dungeon.

……

After the duke's son was killed, the news spread in just a few minutes, and the entire duke's palace was thrown into chaos.

The servants and the guards who stayed behind jumped up, and after losing the shock of the Duke, they regained their desire for freedom, and while escaping from the Duke's castle, they did not forget to take some 'valuable' things in the castle.

In order to accumulate enough gold to recruit elite knights as quickly as possible, the Survivor player playing as Richard Garriman has sent nearly eighty percent of the castle's guards out to Fiordland to 'enforce taxes' on civilians.

This led to the emptiness of the defense in the castle of the Duke's Palace, and now that it was in great chaos, the night owl no longer needed to hide, and directly swaggered against the scattered crowd, from the second floor of the castle to the first floor.

As for the 3 elite knights recruited by Richard......

These forces were only responsible for protecting the safety of the 'boss' during his lifetime, but they were not obligated to avenge the 'boss', and after Richard's death, they soon returned to the Knights' Guild.

The Night Stalker found a staircase leading to the dungeon on the first floor of the castle.

There were no more guards near the dungeon, and he descended the stairs and came across a locked wooden gate.

This was difficult for Roy, the Assassin who had learned the 'trick of lockpicking', who tinkered twice in front of the lock, and when the progress bar was full, the chain lock on the door fell to the ground.

Upon entering the dungeon, it was dark and damp, with straw on the floor, and only a few cells held prisoners.

At this time, the castle was jumping up and down, and when the prisoners saw that the person who came down was not the Duke's palace guard, they immediately could not sit still, and they all got up and threw themselves in front of the cell door, banging on the cell door vigorously, begging the night owl to let them out.

The Night Stalker took down the two sets of cell keys hanging on the wall and threw them to the prisoner closest to him.

The prisoner took the key, his face flashing with ecstasy, and he quickly began to fit the key to his cell.

In a short time, he opened the door of his cell, and when he escaped from it, he immediately went to release all the other prisoners.

"Finally free!"

"I'm going out and killing Richard Garriman because this guy is putting me in here."

"I'm going to join the Brotherhood, follow them, and overthrow the Duke's rule over Fjordland!"

Most of these prisoners were 'mobs' who were arrested because they offended the forces of the Duke's Palace, and now after regaining their freedom, they are eager to try, and they all grit their teeth with bitter hatred for the Duke's Palace.

"Everyone, be quiet!"

The night owl raised his hand and motioned for the indignant prisoner to listen quietly.

"I'm a member of the Brotherhood, and my goal here is to push the Kaliman family into the abyss of destruction!"

Night Stalker clenched his fists and instigated in a sonorous voice, "Fiordland has been shrouded in darkness for too long, it's time for light!" ”

"Is he really a member of the Brotherhood?"

"Look at the emblem on his chest, I've seen it before, yes, it's the mark of the Brotherhood!"

"We are more than willing to assist the Brotherhood in overthrowing the Duke's Palace."

The prisoners immediately became agitated when they heard the Night Stalker's words, and at first there were some people who had doubts about the Night Stalker's identity, but with the confirmation of their companions, this doubt quickly disappeared, and everyone enthusiastically expressed their willingness to help the Night Stalker.

"According to the Brotherhood's information, the old Duchess 'Morgan Galliman' is not actually dead."

The night owl relied on his own familiarity with the plot and dropped a bombshell on the prisoner.

"What?! It can't be, but I saw him lie in a coffin and bury him in the ground. ”

Someone in the crowd let out a stunned sound.

"We were all deceived by him......"

Night Stalker showed a gritted tooth hatred expression, "It was all a play he directed himself, in order to lure out the Brotherhood and then wipe us out. ”

Ignoring the uncertain expressions on the faces of the prisoners present, the Night Stalker continued: "The purpose of my visit is to kill Archduke Morgan with my own hands, I have mastered his hiding place, and what I lack now is a like-minded warrior to witness the death of Duke Kaliman!" ”

"My lord, I am willing to follow you and be a witness to your killing of the duke."

One of the young men immediately knelt on one knee and shouted passionately.

After he had risen, the dozen or so remaining prisoners followed suit, falling to one knee and shouting, "Kill the Duke!" Overthrow the Ducal Palace! ”

Seeing that his incitement had an effect, the corners of his mouth raised slightly under his hood, and then with a wave of his hand, he beckoned the dozen or so 'mobs' to follow him.

……

The group marched through the prison and stopped before coming to a stone wall in the deepest part of the prison.

The stone wall looked the same as the wall next to it, except that it had a shallow groove in the middle, about the height of the night owl's chest.

The night owl took out the stone slab and stepped forward, insetting the stone slab with the Duke's palace emblem into the groove.

After waiting for two seconds, the stone wall in front of him suddenly shook, and dust fell down.

Thundered......

The slab began to rise, revealing a crack underneath that was filled with bright light.

"It's open, it's open! It's a secret door here?! ”

"So the cunning Duke Morgan is hiding in this place?"

"It's still the people of the Brotherhood who are so powerful that they can even find this kind of place!"

The prisoners erupted in exclamation again, and everyone craned their necks for the stone door to open completely.

After the stone gate rose to half a human height, it was forbidden.

The night owl took the lead, and the cat bent down through the gap in the opening of the stone door and entered a passage behind the stone gate.

Seeing this, the prisoners behind him also followed suit.

The passage behind the stone gate was not long, and everyone walked forward about ten meters, and their eyes suddenly opened up.

I saw that in a huge underground space of several hundred square meters, gold coins, gems, and treasures were piled up, and the entire space was shining with golden light that was impossible to look at.

"Oh my God, what did I see?!"

"Gold, that's all gold!"

"The Eight Achievements here are the treasure troves of the Duke's Palace?"

"He kept all the money he had siphoned off from us...... This damn guy! ”

The prisoners let out a burst of exclamation, but no one touched the treasure.

They have been oppressed by the Duke's Mansion for too long, and when they see these treasures, not only can they not be greedy, but they have greatly stimulated the hatred of the Duke's Palace in their hearts.

The Night Stalker picked up a one-handed sword encrusted with gems from the ground and shouted, "Follow me!" ”

The prisoners followed the example of the night owls, and took in their hands all the objects that could be used as weapons along the road, and if there was really nothing to take, they picked up some wine jugs, bottles, and other things, anyway, as long as they were made of metal and had a certain weight, they could be used as weapons.

……

The group walked through the treasure vault and came to the door of a separate room.

The Night Stalker stepped forward and kicked open the heavy iron door that had been split on, and an eerie glow of green shimmered in the dimly lit room.

This hidden room hidden in the treasure vault looks like a few dozen square meters, and it looks like a small alchemy laboratory, with large and small experimental equipment on the table, and the green liquid in the flask is boiling bubbles, and the catheter guides the green liquid from one test tube to another......

At the same time, there was a strong smell of rotting rot in the room, which came from the dark corner directly opposite the door.

A huge figure nearly three meters tall stood there as silent as an iron tower, and outsiders could not see his face clearly, only a needle filled with green liquid could be seen on his body.

"Hmmm......"

The tall figure let out a long, dull snort.

"Who disturbed my sleep?"

As the tall figure spoke, a chaotic heartbeat followed.

At first there were only faint voices or two, but after a few seconds, the sound gradually became denser, and in the back, the sound of the heartbeat was as loud and dense as the beating of drums.

"The gods are above! What kind of monster is that? ”

One of the prisoners asked in a trembling voice.

"Hmmm......"

The tall figure let out a long snort again.

"Monsters? I'm just like you, human! ”

As he spoke, the figure stepped out of the way and walked stiffly from where he was standing.

The needle on its body was torn off, and the fluorescent green liquid inside dripped to the ground, and immediately rose a hot smoke that corroded the ground into specks of black.

The footsteps fell heavily to the ground, and the weight seemed to make the whole room tremble slightly.

The tall figure took two steps before finally being exposed to the light that came through the door.

It was a creature that was largely detached from its human form, with an aging head mounted on a huge, puffy body made of multiple organs, and its bare skin was covered in cyan corpse spots.

The chest of the swollen body was hollowed out, and there were more than a dozen hearts like a bunch of purple-black grapes, hanging bare here, pulsating chaotically, making chaotic noises.

The old man's face is seven or eight points similar to that of Richard Garriman previously played by the player, with hair and teeth missing, his eyes having lost their pupils and becoming completely white, and half of his cheeks have rotted, revealing scarlet gums.

This is Duke Morgan Kaliman - who has turned himself into an ugly zombie in order to survive.
