Chapter 226: A Night Exploration of the Cathedral
After hearing Yan Feng's words, although they had already prepared in their hearts, the ship girls still gasped.
"But...... How do we know for sure? Usually the church is full of people, so you don't have a chance to take a closer look, right? After coming to his senses, Cayo asked with some distress.
Yan Feng nodded and said confidently, "Naturally, it can't be done during the day, but what about at night?" ”
"At night?"
Andrea grinned, "Admiral, aren't you funny?" The cathedral is not open at night! ”
Yan Feng patted Ellie's daughter's forehead and said with a smile, "Who said I was going to go through the main gate?" ”
Then he turned to the shipwives and said, "In the afternoon, I saw a scaffolding on the east side of the cathedral that had been erected for maintenance work, and if I were careful to sneak in, I should be able to sneak into the cathedral. ”
"What!" The ship's wives exclaimed in unison.
"Admiral, you're not kidding, are you? Let's do this kind of thing, how can that scaffolding be so high that you can go on an adventure! Richelieu said first with concern.
The company also nodded in agreement, "That's right!" If it really doesn't work, wouldn't it be better if we applied directly to the Governor's Palace, and let the clergy of the church cooperate with us to search? ”
Cailliaud shook his head, "Sister Enterprise, you are not a religious person, I'm afraid I don't know this, in short, no matter who puts pressure on you, this group of monks in the cathedral will resist to the end, and they will never obey their fate, and in the end, if it makes a big fuss, it will be bad for us and the Doge's Palace." ”
Andrea also said with concern when he mentioned religious people, "You have never seen those religious fanatics, when we were in the small town of Auditore Auditore, we also went to the church, when a nun was scolded for a long time by the fanatical priest for doing a wrong step of the ritual, and if it wasn't for Grandpa Rao's personal intercession, I don't know how the matter would have ended." ”
Yan Feng also nodded and said, "In short, I don't think that group of monks will let us enter the sacred church to conduct a large-scale search, even if they agree under pressure from the Governor's Mansion and the government, I am afraid that they may also make some small moves in secret, such as ...... Incite the faithful to let them defend the church. ”
"This ...... Is it really possible? Cardinal Richelieu asked incredulously, she was a person who had always believed in the good side of religion, and she would rather not know about the dark side of religion.
VV took a sip of coffee and said solemnly, "It's entirely possible, have you forgotten the so-called Crusades?" In the name of religion, to put it bluntly, I still hope to plunder the rich wealth of the East, and if I don't talk about the rest, let's just say that the Honganji Temple of the Shojo Sect during the Jie Bon Warring States Period, isn't it also in the name of some Buddha in various places? ”
Looking at Richelieu's somewhat pale face, Yan Feng motioned with his eyes that VV would stop here.
Immediately, he immediately changed the subject: "Anyway, I'm going to try to sneak into the church tonight, I've learned a lot of Assasin's skills these days, and now I finally have the opportunity to practice it." ”
Speaking of this, Yan Feng was a little excited, originally thought that he would have the opportunity to practice and use it after returning to the town guard, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon.
The women looked at Yan Feng's excited expression and didn't know what to say for a while, but in the end, they couldn't resist the admiral's stubbornness, so they could only reluctantly agree.
However, the ship's girls also made a condition to Yan Feng, if they failed to infiltrate tonight, they would not mention this matter again in the future, and simply go directly to the formal channels to let the church agree.
Yan Feng naturally agreed when he heard that the ship's ladies agreed, and finally he arranged for the next manpower.
This time, he and VV went to the two of them, VV hid outside the main entrance of St. Mark's Church and waited for his news, he first went to open the gate and let VV in after sneaking in, and then the two looked for VV in the church according to VV's induction.
Before leaving, Yan Feng also asked for the golden knife from the company, and after packing it, he handed it over to VV, who was waiting outside, and changed into the black leather armor that was convenient for night movement.
"Okay, VV and I are going to go, you guys take care of the children, try not to let them find out about my midnight out." Yan Feng finally commanded Richelieu and Andrea and the others in front of him.
After the ship girls nodded and agreed, Yan Feng and VV, who were also dressed in black, walked towards the outside of the hotel.
After leaving the hotel, Yan Feng immediately put on this set of leather armor and covered his face, and trotted all the way towards St. Mark's Church with VV.
"Alright VV, you're waiting around here for my contact." When he came to the main entrance of St. Mark's Church, Yan Feng said to VV.
VV nodded, "Then I'll hide nearby, Admiral, you also have to be careful, if you can't do anything, give up immediately, we don't want to see you get hurt." ”
Yan Feng smiled and touched VV's head and said, "Don't worry, the Admiral is very afraid of death, and he won't be strong." ”
After seeing VV's dangerous eyes, Yan Feng reacted, and he habitually made a signature move against the destroyer, and immediately ended the topic and said, "Then I'll go, VV, you should also be careful not to be discovered!" As he spoke, he turned and ran towards the east side of the church.
"Humph! Count you as fast as you run! VV looked at Yan Feng's back unhappily and said, this kind of special action on the destroyer naturally made her extremely unhappy on the adult ship girl VV, and she didn't take out the drug cannon on the spot, which was already in the face of the other party is admiral.
Yan Feng, who was heading towards the destination, also wiped his sweat and "whew...... It's so dangerous, why can't you always control your own hands, VV is not one of those destroyers? But is it really the height and size issues that caused my miscalculation? ”
Thinking about this serious question all the way, Yan Feng came to the scaffolding under construction.
Looking at the scaffolding that stretched all the way to the top of the church, Yan Feng first moved his body to warm up, and said to himself, "Then let's test my training results in the past year and the skills on the codex." ”
After the warm-up, Yan Feng began to climb the scaffolding in front of him, because it is usually used for workers to go up and down, this scaffolding is not too difficult to climb, and there are wooden planks in some places.
However, when Yan Feng climbed all the way down the steel pipe to the top, he found a problem.
"Uh...... Why didn't you see such a long distance in the afternoon? ”
Yan Feng scratched his face and looked at the distance between the plank in front of him and the outer edge of the church in distress.
Although this distance is not completely impossible to jump, it is bound to be unable to fully run and borrow strength in terms of the length of this plank, which means that it is still difficult to jump over.
"It must have been a worker who deliberately removed a long wooden board to prevent someone from sneaking into the church at night to steal something, right?" Yan Feng looked around and muttered to himself.
"I have no choice but to learn from the Persian monkeys."
Yan Feng carefully looked at the distance and then started a small run.
"Hey!"
A big leap of wind flew towards the church opposite.
But sure enough, the distance was still not enough, at least not enough for Yan Feng to reach the opposite wall, so he changed his mind in mid-air.
"Smack!"
Yan Feng's two hands finally narrowly grabbed the edge of the opposite outer wall.
However, Yan Feng, who had never done such a difficult action before, slipped his left hand the moment he grabbed the edge of the wall, and now he only used the four fingers of his right hand to hang the weight of his entire body in midair.
In this case, although Yan Feng was not shocked, when he tried to maintain his posture with his right hand, he also carefully put his left hand back on the edge, and used his feet wearing special leather boots to borrow strength on the outer wall of the church, and climbed up the edge at once.
"Hoo ......"
After finally climbing up, Yan Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I was scared to death, I thought I was going to fall." ”
Looking down at the height of the building below about five floors, Yan Feng was still a little apprehensive, but fortunately, he finally succeeded in entering the church.
After carefully following the stretch of roof into an open window, Yan Feng groped his way in the direction of the gate.
After going the wrong way a few times, Yan Feng finally arrived at the gate.
"Squeak"
After Yan Feng unlocked the lock from the inside and opened the door a crack, VV, who had already been notified, immediately slipped in.
"Click"
After locking the gate again, Yan Feng smiled and said to VV, "How is it, the Admiral is still powerful, right?" ”
VV looked Yan Feng up and down, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after finding that there were no broken or injured places.
"It's good that we weren't hurt, otherwise we wouldn't know how to go back and explain to the secretary ship."
"Hey! Is the Admiral so distrustful? Since I propose this plan, it at least shows that I have a certain degree of certainty, as for being so uneasy? Yan Feng felt a little hurt when he looked at VV's distrustful appearance, and protested dissatisfiedly.
"Alright, let's start searching, in case we encounter a monk who gets up at night, it will be troublesome, let's move quickly."
VV didn't answer Yan Feng's question either, and changed the topic to urge him.
"Humph! Someday I'm going to let you see for yourself my perfect infiltration! Yan Feng said in fragments, but he still followed VV and began to look up in the church.
According to VV's induction, Yan Feng followed the small flat-chested battleship around the church for a long time, and finally came to a sewer.
“…… VV, you're not going to tell me that's down here, are you? Yan Feng looked at the stone manhole cover in front of him with a tangled expression and asked.
VV's face was also a little unsightly, but she took out the golden knife and explained to Yan Feng, "Although I want to say no, but my induction and the resonance received by the knife indicate a point, that 'door' is right down here." ”
Yan Feng sighed helplessly, and began to carefully check the manhole cover.
You must know that this thing is made of stone, and it is not lightweight, and the cover is very tight.
Even if Yan Feng wanted to let VV forcibly lift it up, it should be impossible, because there was no place to match it at all.
However, if nothing else, the person who designed the gate should have left the open mechanism nearby.
"I have to look for it." Yan Feng shrugged his shoulders and said to VV.
