"How do you want to play this time?" Hiding on the roof of a house, Lucia looked at the heavily guarded City Lord's Mansion in the distance and asked Lin Wen.
Because of the attack of the undead fleet, the circle around the City Lord's Mansion was almost full of guards at this moment, and the defense was so tight that not even a fly could fly through, and it was obviously very stupid to attack head-on.
"Let's go down the sewers and play and sneak in, try not to make a sound, otherwise we will have to fight a fixed-point defensive battle." Lin Wen thought about it for a while and found that he could only play like this.
"If we are discovered, do we have any countermeasures?"
"Then we have to demolish the house." To this question, Lin Wen replied with the large explosives bag in his hand.
Compared to the troll cities in the secret realm, the sewers of Waterdeep are much inferior, narrow and short, and Lin Wen and Lucia must lower their heads to advance through the filthy sewers.
"When I get out of this damn place, I must take a good shower!" Stepping into the calf-deep sewage, Lucia couldn't help but complain.
"I support, do you need me to help you rub your back?"
"Don't!"
After disarming a few magic traps and breaking down the tight iron fences that had locked a few locks, Lin Wen and Lucia finally came to the city lord's mansion directly below. After crawling out of the sewer, Lin Wen found that the location he was in should be outside the kitchen of the City Lord's Mansion.
Lin Wen turned around and pulled Lucia up, then re-covered the manhole cover, and then Lin Wen and Lucia sneaked and hid in the corner.
"Hey, you know what? The undead fleet is attacking Westport, and cannonballs are flying all over the sky. The sound of conversation could be heard faintly through the thick wooden door.
"Westport? It's far away from us, don't worry. The cannonballs can't hit. And we have so many people guarding here, it's very safe! ”
"But that's the undead fleet. It is said that they will take the living captive to the ship and turn them into undead! ”
"Where did you get it from? Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and cook. The adults outside are waiting to eat, and they have you to eat when they are in a hurry! ”
"Yes yes yes ......"
"You get busy first, I'll go out and take out the trash."
As soon as he finished speaking, the wooden door of the kitchen was pushed open, and a fat chef in a dirty chef's uniform came out of the kitchen carrying a dirty bucket.
Right now, Lin Wen took Lucia's hand and ran into the kitchen before the wooden door shut. Even though the two sides were less than half a meter apart, the fat chef didn't see the two infiltrators walking in front of him.
The kitchen of the City Lord's Mansion is large, on the stove. In the grill, the saucepan was full of cooking food, and five or six people were sweating profusely.
When he was about to enter the interior of the City Lord's Mansion through the kitchen, Lin Wen suddenly stopped.
"Wait, I have a better way." Lin Wen wrote with his finger on Lucia's hand.
"What do you want to do?"
"Poison."
Of course, it's not the kind of poison that seals the throat when you see blood, although Alice is a virgin, but she is right, Lin Wen is indeed a bit addicted to murder. After all, killing is a means, not an end. Lin Wen couldn't get lost in the thrill of killing, even though that would level up quickly.
When it comes to poisoning, there is no profession better than a thief, not to mention that Lucia is already carrying two bottles of super powerful hypnotic potion - Emerald Dream. This is Lucia's reward for helping an insomniac old mage collect potion materials after advancing to silver. No matter what the creature. Just a little bit of Emerald Dream can make you sleep for a whole day, and this potion was originally made to treat insomnia, so its effect will not be dispelled by spells.
Originally, in the twilight forest, Lucia also used this potion in order to tattoo Lin Wen. Of course, Lin Wen didn't know that he had already experienced the powerful effects of this potion.
Quietly pour the potion into the hot soup. In this cold early winter, which is full of wind and rain, no one will refuse to enjoy the hot broth. Moreover, the amount of this agent used at one time determines how quickly it takes effect. Add it to the hot soup like this, and by the time this group of people finds out that something is wrong, it is estimated that everyone has been tricked.
After finishing their hands and feet, Lin Wen and Lucia shrank in the corner of the kitchen, grinning as they watched the chef bring the soup to the outside cafeteria for others to enjoy.
After a while, the outside gradually began to be lively, and the sound of scolding and fighting was mixed with a few screams, and then all the sounds tended to be calm, and the entire City Lord's Mansion was completely quiet.
"Sounds like it's all done, let's go." Lin Wen reached out and pulled Lucia up, and then left the kitchen with a gun. Outside the kitchen is the cafeteria, and at the moment there are unconscious people lying on the table in the canteen and on the ground. Of course, there are more than those who are unconscious, for example, the chefs in the kitchen are now separated from their heads and bodies, and blood is spilled everywhere, apparently those fighters who fought to kill these guys in charge of cooking before falling into a coma.
"It's a lot easier that way." Lin Wen laughed, then the bullet was loaded, and Lucia also pulled out the dagger, and the two began to search in the City Lord's Mansion after re-entering the stealth state. After all, you can't expect a single food poisoning to bring down everyone in the entire City Lord's Mansion, and you can always be prepared for battle.
Relying on Lin Wen's hunter to track, the two quickly found a room protected by four gold-level guards, with only one person in the center of the room. Needless to say, there must be some big man inside, and the big man who is worthy of the protection of the four gold-level guards, except for the city lord of Deep Water City, there should be no one else.
"Four Golden Steps, what should I do?" In the sneak, Lucia wrote in Lin Wen's hand.
"Drop the grenade and blow them up." Lin Wen's answer was also very simple and crisp.
Six round grenades were thrown out of thin air, striking the guard's armor with a crisp thud, before falling to the floor and gurgling.
"What is this?" The four Golden-Rank guards were drawn to the attention of the six fist-sized metal balls, and one of them picked one up and looked at it closely.
"Good dreams!" It just so happened that Lin Wen wrote a few words on the grenade that this person picked up.
Boom Boom Boom!! A series of violent explosions turned the location of these gold-level guards into a living hell in an instant, and the guards were blown to pieces, along with the walls and corridors blasted out a huge hole.
The violent explosion not only opened the door to the city lord's office, but also managed to attract the attention of all the other guards who were not stunned, and Lin Wen and Lucia had less than 2 minutes to subdue the city lord of Waterdeep before they were surrounded by a heavy siege.
"Come on, hurry up." Lin Wen jumped through the big hole with a gun, and then pointed at the middle-aged man sitting behind the work in front of him. (To be continued......)
PS: I'm thinking about how to write the later plot elegantly and without dirt, so the update has been a bit sluggish recently, and it will be fine in a few days
