Chapter Ninety-Seven: Opportunity
"Boss! There's news! Wright sorted out his emotions outside the door, pretending to be ecstatic and ran into the courtyard, this kind of acting skill is basically a compulsory course for a thief, and for Wright, it is to take some time to adjust. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"What's wrong? Be quieter! Beware of the walls with ears! Joblin looked at his subordinate with joy, fearing that he would be heard too loudly.
"Oh...... Got it......" Wright hurriedly lowered his voice.
"Say, what's the news?" Joblin pressed the impatience in his heart and asked.
"Good news, ......good news," Wright gasped, "I just heard the news, the first news is that today, Master Tovdill and Master Milner will take the students out for experiments and will not come back at night; The second is to listen to a mage and his retinue discussing a sneak attack on the eastern barracks tonight, as if there is something in it that will work for them. ”
"What?! Is this true??! When Joblin heard the news, he excitedly grabbed Wright's shoulder in a tone of disbelief.
"It's true, it's true! This is definitely true! Wright nodded hurriedly.
"Haha, I finally waited for the opportunity to go up, I thought I was going to be stuck here by this problem." Joblin laughed, and the anxiety of the days was swept away. "Brothers, pack up tonight, disperse and set off, gather after passing through the barracks, target the Mage Academy, remember, try not to alarm others."
"Yes, sir." The other individuals who had followed Joblin into town responded in unison, and then returned to their rooms to prepare for tonight's action.
Of course, this kind of news is the only one, and the thieves' guilds are very tight-mouthed people (unless they are pried open by other means) and will not tell the news easily. So the whole town is still a peaceful scene, without the slightest feeling of turmoil.
"Huh? Will Cass? What do you say adults want us to do this, what is the purpose of simulated fire warning? I don't understand what the adults mean...... "Cod led the people to pile up the dead grass collected from the mountains to the side of the training camp, and ran into the team leading the team to clean up the flammable materials around it.
"If you can understand your orders, then what do you need your adults to do?" Wilcas looked at the dazed Cord and replied with a smile.
"I don't know what Putton was pulled to do, it's mysterious." Cod muttered, and walked past Wilcas with a group of horsemen dressed in thin clothes and riding horses without armor. According to the words of the head of the horse farm, the horses need to rest in peacetime, and only in wartime can they break out, and wearing a vest all the time is a burden for the horses.
That night, just as almost all the soldiers were asleep, the bright light of the fire illuminated the town of Half and a Half Moon, and the place where the fire started was the training ground on the east side of the barracks.
"Let's go out of the water!!" The short sound of the horn, mixed with the shouts of the night watchmen, woke all the soldiers from their beds. In the past, he would occasionally conduct a night training, which Wei Xu learned from the TV series on the earth, in order to improve the soldiers' early warning ability and respond faster to the enemy's attack on the camp. Since almost everyone knew about this fire drill, the entire barracks handled the "fire" in an orderly manner without a trace of panic. The soldiers were full of thoughts about putting out the fire as soon as possible and getting to sleep, and basically all of them went to Dongying to fetch water and put out the fire at once. Fortunately, when Half Moon Town was established, Wei Xu arranged for people to lead two waterways from Half Moon Lake into Half Moon Town to reach the military camp in order to solve the problem of water supply, so in less than ten minutes, all the fires were successfully extinguished, and no one would notice that in these ten minutes alone, a few rats had slipped past the so-called heavily guarded camp and slipped along the road to the Mage Academy to the mountain.
Joblin had a strange feeling in his heart, he always felt that today's events revealed a kind of weirdness, it was impossible to say that all this was just right, just the two most likely archmages would not come back tonight, and it happened that the barracks would be disrupted. This kind of fortuitous event will actually meet together, and the beneficiary is precisely himself.
However, with the successful passage through the barracks, the stones in my heart were unconsciously put down a lot, and it was good to be able to enter, maybe I was suspicious. Wright, on the other side, was beating suddenly in his heart, it was actually true, so what was the plan of this necromancer.
"Boss...... We seem to have been to this place many times. "Just as everyone was thinking, a thief noticed that something was wrong. At the same time, the big stone in Joblin's heart was finally put down, the Mage Academy is worthy of being the Mage Academy, and he and the others should have arrived a long time ago, but who thought that it had not yet arrived, this must be the protective clothing of the Mage Academy, if he was allowed to go all the way unimpeded, but Joblin would be suspicious, so smooth, no one would feel wrong.
"This should be a trick for the Mage Academy, everyone closes their eyes! Straggle the ropes together and follow me on! There is really no good way to deal with this kind of confusion formation, and he has seen in books that some mages like to use this kind of spell to hide their dwellings. The visiting mage needs to use a friendly magic spell as a doorbell, or forcibly break the formation with a spell, break in, and break the formation with brute force, maybe Joblin's group can, but with a spell...... Then it really belongs to the tiger pulling the turtle, and there is no way to start.
So Joblin decided to use this method to crack the formation in front of him. After walking a few steps, he suddenly found that the people following him were all in the other direction, and it seemed that the road under his feet had been modified by spells. Thinking of this, Joblin closed his eyes and walked forward. When I hit a stone fortress-style building, behind the building was a village.
"Haha, I finally found it, then continue to disperse, look for the target, withdraw it immediately after finding it, and make a mark!" Joblin gave the order quickly, and then went to the village where he had been placed in front of him. The rest of the people are also scrambling, after all, the space enchantment thing, whoever can take a look at it will also benefit immensely. The only one who was left behind was Wright, who had been thinking about the intentions of the "necromancer" today.
On the other side, the mayor's residence, at this time, the doorkeeper was replaced by Robben.
Wei Xu gently reclined on the seat in the center, gently stroked the ring on his index finger, and waited for news.
"My lord! The fish bites. Puton ran in in a hurry and saluted Wei Xu.
"What color?" Wei Xu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked.
"The bite is gray, and the movement is red." Purton replied truthfully. Red fish and gray fish are the names that Wei Xu told him, after all, the wall has ears, and it is not a big mistake to be careful when to be.
"Good! Go back and gather your people, and when you see my signal, you will do it. Wei Xu stood up and walked towards the door as he spoke. There was also a bit of unbearable excitement in the words. "Robben, let's go to the barracks and wait for them."
"Okay boss." Robben at the door said in a deep voice, the giant axe behind him reflecting a penetrating cold light in the moonlight.
