"Boom-"

The heavy sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

"Damn, you clumsy idiot, you can't even hold a thing!" In the castle of Baron Boniguez, the fat lord stopped his steps, turned his head and scolded one of the guards who followed him very dissatisfiedly.

When Arroyo led his army to attack the castle, Baron Singler did not participate in the battle, but walked with several attendants loyal to him in a vaulted corridor about two meters wide and two and a half meters high.

Strictly speaking, the reason why Lord Boenigs and his guards "walked" in this passage, rather than "running" in such a faster way, was because Baron Singer did not want to give up his possessions after making the decision to abandon the castle through the secret passages of the castle, so he ordered several of the guards who escorted him to flee to pack some of the products of the castle into several large chests, and let some of them carry the boxes after him.

And he himself, naturally, is empty-handed, just go to the end of the road.

Judging from the sound of the box falling to the ground, the thing that the guard who accidentally slipped his hand just now was definitely not an item that could be easily held steady. Baron Singler's greedy personality made the guards who followed him unspeakable, but these people, as subordinates, did not dare to resist their lord, and the guard who had just been scolded by the baron just bowed his head and apologized, saying, "I'm very sorry, lord, I'll take it." ”

Then, he bent down, stretched out his hands and swiped the sides of the large box, took a deep breath, and picked it up again.

"Hmph, that's what it looks like." Baron Singler snorted coldly, turned back and continued to move on.

This long, narrow vaulted corridor connects the outskirts of Boenigs, and is lit by small candles at intervals on the walls on either side. As soon as he escaped, the fat baron believed that if he fled to his uncle, Count Vilnader, or went to the nearest suburban manor to gather the lords and knights loyal to him in turn, the tide of battle would be reversed.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth with a sinister smile, and thought to himself, "Wait until I have gathered my army...... Baron Torrenster, even if you are from the Durian family, I will give you a taste of life that is worse than death! ”

……

Outside the secret passage, inside the castle, at the same time that the combined army of the Brotherhood of Thieves and the Boenigs militia led by Arroyo entered the Baron's Castle, Raymond also followed the route pointed out by Freil, and broke away from the team and reached the corridor on the second floor along the stairs on the left side of the castle hall.

The corridors on the second floor of the castle were indeed as Freyer had claimed, and there were no enemies worth noting. Running down the hallway, Raymond encountered a handful of castle guards and an ambush of two Nightspawn killers, but the strength of the garrison could not stop the swordsman youth and his determination to reclaim the half-elf girl Tina, from the vampire Sir Gaskol.

Clearing all obstacles that stood in his way, he soon noticed the door to the small storehouse that Freel had told him earlier, remembering that the half-elf poet who had opened the inner wall for Arroyo had said, "Besides, on the way to the next route, you will pass a small warehouse for storing medicines before reaching Gascoll's alchemy laboratory. At that point, don't hesitate to break down the door, the guards in the castle and the Nightspawn killers will be deserted due to Baron Singler's escape plan, and you will get a few bottles of Advanced Life Potions in that small warehouse, which will be used to replenish the amount of HP you have to pay for using the [Blood・Whetstone] talent in the duel with Gascol. ”

Although he doesn't believe that there are really people in this world who can foresee the future, Raymond is also aware of his physical condition. His talent, which Freel calls the Blood Whetstone, does seem to be a powerful ability that can only be used at the cost of his own blood, so in order to fight against Gaskol, he does need a magic potion that can replenish his health in time to maintain his fighting style of killing 1,000 enemies and damaging 800 enemies.

"If there are a few bottles of [Advanced Life Elixir] in here, as the blind man said, then I must go in and search for them." Remembering Frerell's words, Raymond turned down the hallway and walked into the door of the small warehouse, "However, if Freire deceived me, there could be a trap here...... But time is of the essence, and I don't have time to hesitate. ”

Immediately, he kicked hard, and the door of the small warehouse was kicked open with a "bang". The young swordsman broke into the interior of the room, quickly rummaged through the cupboards, and in a few moments found the bottles of magic potions that Freier had mentioned to him when he was outside the castle.

The price of magic potions is a lot of money for ordinary adventurers and mercenaries, and the game team of "Ferdia" opposes the practice of players to reduce the difficulty of the game by taking drugs frequently, which may be one of the reasons why game items such as life potions and magic potions are generally more expensive in the game world, and it is difficult to buy them for a long time without wealth.

Of course, if you're a good alchemist with the technical ability to use raw materials to make your own potions, that's a different story.

After thinking about it, Raymond took out one of the bottles of the potion, drank it from the several bottles, filled up the health he had consumed earlier, and then exited the small warehouse, retreated to the corridor outside the room, and turned around and continued.

It took about a minute, and after a few corners, the young swordsman finally came to the door of another room at the end of the corridor on the second floor of the castle. He clenched the sword in his hand, stepped forward, tried the door, felt the door locked from the inside, hesitated for a moment and slashed the sword on the door to force his way in.

The fragile door let out a mournful roar under the blood-stained curved sword, and dozens of small pieces of wood splintered and fell inside.

Stepping through the fallen door, Raymond walked into the alchemy laboratory that Freel said, his eyes quickly scanned the room, and saw that the layout of the room was indeed similar to what Freil described, only to see that there were several tables on the four sides of the room for alchemy materials and processing equipment, and the central part was vacated for most of the space for drawing a large alchemy array.

The interior setup confirmed that it was indeed a lab room that was popular with alchemists, but Raymond was not an alchemist, and he had no interest in the materials and equipment, just looking for Tina.

So his gaze continued to sweep around the room. When the smoke from the collapse of the door had cleared a little, he soon saw that at the end of his gaze, in front of the dimly lit wall on one side of the room, a little girl with bright silver hair sat on a chair with her little head tilted.
