Beyond the Castle without light. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A slight rumbling sound was remembered in the clouds, and it was drizzling as usual above the lightless castle. The cold rain fell silently, adding a little cold silence to this already strange night.

"Sir, the Professionals team has all infiltrated the castle. Are we also going to help? ”

A heavily armed soldier without any national or organizational insignia saluted and reported to the technician with eyes.

Drops of rain slid down the pure black helmet on his head and down the pitch-black raincoat on his body. The slightly bloated burly body under the soldier's raincoat is contrasted, like black granite that has been beaten without deformation. Even when he reported just now, his face did not change in the slightest except for speaking.

If the special forces are also divided into several levels, it is obvious that the rank of this soldier is definitely above those armed police forces and field squads. The murderous aura on their bodies is as strong as a butcher for decades, and just looking at it from a distance makes people feel cold in their hearts.

"Support?" The man with the eyes pushed his eyes, his voice paused, and then he smiled indifferently: "...... No! We need to seize this safe time to build a geographical model of the castle. It's rare that the weather is so powerful, and I have released all the subtle sonar acquisition devices. ”

"Yes, sir!"

Without the slightest hesitation, without the slightest question, the soldier was as cold as a wind-up machine. Smack~, a military salute, and turned to leave.

It's not that these soldiers don't have personal emotions, it's just a habit they have developed from engaging in secret events for a long time. In addition to the killing skills they are good at, these soldiers have gradually become a little indifferent to the human feelings of ordinary people.

Buzz~~, in a slight spinning sound, more than a dozen precision machines with small propellers gradually rose into the air. They flew higher and higher in the hazy night rain, and then flew over the presumed location of the castle under the control of the remote pilot.

Accompanied by the sound of countless raindrops sliding down to form miniature sound waves, these sophisticated machines slowly swept the entire terrain of the castle into its own memory chips.

A minute later, several soldiers in black combat uniforms, under a makeshift rain shelter under the command of the eyed man, turned on a projector-like device. The 3D projection of the castle was immediately constructed by a projector over the instrument. Although it is not possible to see the specific structure inside the castle, there is also a rough topographic map.

"Coupled with the data transmitted by the miniature sensors on the professional team, this mission can be ended early."

Seeing this three-dimensional projection, the man with eyes showed a satisfied smile.

After he operated on the projector for a while, a huge space underground appeared in the three-dimensional projection of the ancient castle. Although the sensor only transmits one passage in the underground space, it also makes up for the shortcomings of the underground part of the 3D projection.

It's just that when the projection of the underground passage was about to be transmitted halfway, it seemed that someone had discovered the sensor on Ling Ye's body and destroyed it. The transmission is interrupted!

"It's tricky enough that even nano-level sensors can detect it. It seems that it is no longer safe here...... Fall back! The bespectacled man put away the smile on his face and ordered coldly.

Hearing this order, the cold soldier who came to report before paused slightly, and then conveyed this order.

Retreating from battle is equivalent to desertion. Even these truly elite soldiers who kill like hemp are not completely indifferent to their own glory. It's just that people like them obey orders has become a kind of conditioned reflex, and even if they have a problem in their hearts, they will never ask at this time.

……

At the same time, a slender black rope hung down on the lightless city wall more than ten meters high.

Four figures, without the help of any climbing tools, grabbed this set of ropes and quickly slid to the ground one after another.

Syllable~...... A few splashes of water splattered from the slightly sunken dark ground, emitting a faint light of light that vanished after falling to the ground.

"Captain, the paint of this castle is really domineering! Not only does it absorb light, but it can also absorb electromagnetic waves. It doesn't look like an ordinary paint developed by Earth technology. ”

The middle-aged Assassin, with dyed white hair, a rough beard, and a leather coat and cape, approached him with the faint light reflected from the Paladin's armor.

"It's supposed to be a hidden magic paint! I'd seen it in the magical library inside Camp Rog, but I didn't expect anyone to be able to concoct it on Earth. A woman with a red staff also leaned in.

"It's all that ignorant midnight! I don't know if I'm dead? …… Damn, this kind of hellish place is all magic paint, and we can't even see the way with a torch, how are we going to find that kid? A druid with a red-eyed raven standing on his shoulder grumbled slightly.

"That's it~! If it were useful, we wouldn't have to come over. Chang Li, since you have seen this magic paint, do you know how to deal with it? After all, being able to produce it on a large scale means that it is not a precious thing. There must be the power to restrain it! ”

The paladin captain interrupted the druid's grumbling and turned to the girl with the staff in hand. In this environment, it is indeed difficult for the four of them to move an inch.

"Magic Ray! As long as it's magic light. Whether it's the light of the skill or the light of the equipment, it can reflect on this paint. After all, this cheap paint is not magically resistant

The alchemist who designed this magic paint in the first place just wanted to use it to deceive ordinary people. Because real professionals have their own ways of coping. For example, you see ......"

As Chang Li explained, a magical flame ignited in her palm.

In an instant, the surrounding scene immediately appeared in front of the eyes of the four professionals. Although this magic flame was not far away, and the surrounding area was full of black and shiny oppressive colors, it was a thousand times better than the previous 'blind man touching the elephant'.

But the magic flame gradually decreased, and everything around it became an environment where you couldn't see your fingers again.

"Chang Li, why did you turn off the lights? How to walk if you can't see the road clearly? The white-haired middle-aged assassin uncle asked puzzled.

"Hmph~, you think beautifully! You think I don't need to spend mana to light a magic fire? If you really want me to raise the lamp, I won't have any magic before I see the enemy. The female mage grumbled dissatisfiedly.

"What then? I just have a short sword on my body, which is an invisible equipment, but I don't have any magic equipment with 'illumination'. You can't take turns using skills, can you? ”

"Why don't we go back the way we came! Anyway, everyone has done their best, and after going back, General Ling asked, and we also have an explanation. The druid, who had been somewhat reluctant before, suggested again.

This time, the proposal to return made the three of them a little excited. After all, their mission this time is only to investigate, and if they lose themselves, it will be a big loss.

Players generally have the idea that their lives are higher than ordinary people. There are basically very few people who sacrifice their lives for the sake of superior tasks. It's a pity that none of them are!

…… But the paladin frowned.

He knew better than these temporary teammates the horrors of ordinary powerful people. Especially in China!

Although these people fought badly, they must not be easily provoked. Often on the head of a powerful person, a huge chain of relationships can be easily pulled out at the level and at the bottom.

Once provoked them, without cutting the grass and eradicating the roots. When they do whatever it takes to deal with you, it's an unimaginable counterattack.

Not to mention that everyone is just an elite player, even warrior players should be careful, careful, and careful.

You may say that your combat strength can withstand a field battalion, and if you give up your cheeky assassination, the destructive power will be even greater, and they will not dare to directly touch you even if it is to maintain social stability.

But these people can't kill you directly, but all kinds of intrigues can definitely destroy you easily.

More importantly, what about your relatives and friends? Players like them, who work hard for the government, are the most seriously punished. But even if you are a person with no relatives and friends, you can't just leave society and become a wild man, right?

Therefore, this rescue is not a last resort, and it is really not easy to give up.

"Let me come!"

The Paladin Captain turns on his prayer aura. A halo of lilac light spread out from beneath his feet, illuminating the surroundings again. Although it is not as good as the magic flame of the mage Chang Li just now, it is enough to act with the professional's developed visual nerves.

"Once the paladin's aura is opened, it doesn't need to consume mana. Everyone stays in formation and follows me, and we move forward slowly......"

After speaking, the paladin took out his shield and knight's sword and walked forward. Seeing this, the others could only glance at each other and followed.

Due to the low level of the 'Prayer' aura and the low brightness of its own light, the four professionals did not notice at all that in the shadow of the building dozens of meters behind them, a vampire wearing a cloak and only revealing the face of the squad leader was staring at them with a greedy gaze.

……

Drops of rain fall from the sky, splashing delicately on the ground, tree branches, and inside the castle. These delicate splashes in the purple shimmer of the 'prayer' aura are as mesmerizing as a dreamy scene from a movie. The beautiful sound of tinkling dong also gave this layer of night a layer of poetic color.

But if the background of this picture of night rain is not the dark castle road, it may really make the four professionals stop and admire and relax. And at this time, in this place where a desperate battle could happen at any time, no one had the heart to appreciate it.

Because there is no topographic map, the direction of the four professions is pointed out by the druids, leading straight to the interior of the castle. But as they walked through the streets and bypassed the old houses, they found that there was always another street in front of them.

"It seems that this castle is bigger than ever!

We walked for so long and didn't even see the central castle. It's like a medium-sized town. The paladin captain's tone was solemn.

"Captain, could it be that there is a magic array affecting our senses, and we are actually going around in circles?" The white-haired middle-aged assassin said uneasily.

Ever since he entered the castle, he has always felt a chill in his back. It was as if a wild wolf was hiding behind him, staring at him deadly.

"Impossible~! Although the street style we see is the same, there are subtle differences. Moreover, the baby crows overhead told me that everyone was moving in one direction in unison, without going around in circles. The druid, wearing a fur hat, shook his head in disapproval.

"Could it be that even your crow has been spelled by the magic array? You know, there are too many people who can influence its existence silently. ”

"Hmph~! If the other party can build a magic array that affects the high-altitude vision, where will it be so easy for us to sneak in? If that really happens to be terrible, even if we die here, we will have to appoint. The druid said in a dull tone.

The Paladin Captain finally decided, "Two more streets ahead." If that's still the case, let's go back! ”

The current situation has exceeded his expectations. Although he didn't want to throw Ling Ye here directly, he wouldn't let the four of them bury him with him. If there really is a large magic array, they will immediately return to break through.

But at this moment, Chang Li, who had the most outstanding spiritual power, suddenly quietly established a chat group through the communication function of the game panel, and pulled the paladins and them in.

Chang Li: "Captain, do you feel it?" It was as if something was quietly following us. ”

Paladin: "Are you sure?" …… What a thing! Could it be that he did something to us? ”

Chang Li: "I don't see it. He moves freely in the dark, and is supposed to be just a vampire. It is said that vampires are born with night vision, which is a racial talent that cannot be weakened by light. But I've never heard of real-world vampires doing magic or anything. ”

Middle-aged Assassin: "Really?" I thought it was my delusion, but I didn't think even you could feel it. ”

Druid: "My raven also summoned me to tell me." Said there was a dark shadow that had been following us since we entered the castle. But don't worry, a few of my ghost wolves have been hiding behind us and on guard. As soon as he makes a move, we will take him down together. ”

The communication function of the game panel can be set to a telepathic dialogue. Although the four of them seemed to walk quietly and didn't say anything, they communicated silently in their hearts......

They weren't the daredevils of Midnight, and even with a numerical advantage, they were quite cautious when facing a vampire.

In this ancient castle that is inconvenient to move, either you don't do it, and once you do, you must quickly capture the other party. If you can interrogate the owner of the castle or the information of Ling Ye, you will make a lot of money.

But after making up their minds, the four professionals waited for more than ten minutes, walked two more streets, and did not see the vampire behind them make a move.

……

in the communication channel.

White-haired middle-aged assassin: "What's going on?" Is it just a little minion who is watching? …… Otherwise, let's take him down first. Otherwise, how can we find him when he burrows into a place where there is no light? ”

Druid: "Don't worry, my ghost wolf is mutated. Not only can it be invisible, but the sense of smell is also particularly developed. Even if the other party escapes, I can find his direction in the first place. ”

Paladin: "Then we'll wait ......"

Before the paladin captain finished speaking, the druid immediately shouted excitedly in the communication channel:

"Attention everyone~! He came. No, not one vampire, several. This guy probably thinks we're not easy to mess with, and has brought in a couple of companions on the spot. (To be continued.) )
