Chapter 52: The night is dark and the wind is high
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Although it was very heartbreaking to use up 5 precious companion cards in one go, Egger was not just a cool unwise move, but after a period of deliberation......
The head of the Frank family is a count of the kingdom, even in the back garden of North County, where there is not much war, but he still has a good family armed force at hand. The "cowardly Egger", who has been a slave in this family, this is clearer......
The economic strength of this family is good, and it has a team of about 6 warriors, dedicated to family affairs, and their average combat power is about the same as that of a swordsman apprentice, of which the captain is a junior swordsman (that is, above level 1O).
In addition, there are more than twenty family servants, these ordinary soldiers equipped with leather armor, although there is no threat to the warriors, but they are more than enough to deal with ordinary people.
The most terrifying thing is that the Frank family actually enshrined a one-star junior mage, which is very dangerous for Egg......
Fortunately, he didn't think about killing directly in the open. In any way, he Iger didn't want to reveal his identity, which would be very bad for himself and for the vineyard. He is still too weak to make the rules, and the current rule-makers of Stormwind will definitely not tolerate his revenge.
β¦β¦
Otto Frank was writing in his study, and a magic lamp with a simple shape on the red sandalwood desk steadily scattered its light, illuminating the whole room, and the light was very soft. This is what the Lord Earl got from a mage on the other side of Stormwind for 5 gold coins......
The grade is reflected in these details, and the friends in the circle who have visited the old earl are very envious of him for having such magical equipment. Of course, the Count himself knew nothing about magic. He slowly put down the quill pen and rubbed his brow to release some of his exhaustion. He's not having a good time lately, and Stormwind is preparing to raise some taxes, which is a headache for him. Of course, it is not for the sake of those untouchables, but in this case, it will definitely dilute the interests of local aristocratic groups like him......
The Earl's Court looks beautiful, but in fact it is a big business, and the expenses are also large. For example, the good family combat force he has acumulated, the monthly expenses are very large, and he also has to provide the junior mage master for magic research...... These were necessary expenses, and if he was not willing to pay, the other nobles would surely be happy to serve. Everyone wants their family to have a warrior's servant, or even a family mage.
The butler, wearing white gloves, personally brought in a bowl of bird's nest and red date porridge to serve the host.
A butler with extremely strict etiquette requirements is necessary for the cultivation of an aristocratic temperament, and this butler hired from Stormwind City and is said to have served the royal family is undoubtedly very good in this regard......
"Hasn't Carl come back yet?"
"The young master has gone to Millie's Vineyard to negotiate business!"
"Humph! Does he kid talk about business? Talk about women, right? I'm afraid I'm looking for an excuse to go out and mess around again, right? I don't know how to converge and kill so many women, I don't know how many times I wiped his ass for him? β
"This time, the young master really went to talk about business, and he didn't go to mess around!"
"He's got a crush on Millie at the vineyard, right? Does this woman have a background? β
"Nothing too complicated! The girl inherited his father's title and estate, the best winery in the North Shire, I think the owner should know. β
"Millie Winery, I know, it wasn't called that before. Does she have a knighthood? I remember that the former owner of the house had a barony. β
"That's right!"
"If you're a serious person, it's suitable. If this kid knows how to take care of himself, then you have a chance to help him! β
"Yes!"
Watching the butler politely walk out, Count Otto still had to continue to worry about paying taxes, and he lazily stroked his hand on the cushion of a chair made of cashmere: how can we satisfy the appetite of the moths in Stormwind without drying up his pockets?
"I'm afraid the wool has to be on the sheep, right?" He thought......
β¦β¦
It's a night when the stars are scarce, and it's good for murder and arson. Ai Daguanren, who was temporarily preparing to make a cameo appearance as an assassin, was probably not even recognizable by Millie in his dress at this time......
He discarded a piece of equipment that might reveal his identity, covered in linen clothes of ordinary civilians, his head was covered with a Diafi mask, and even his weapons were replaced with ornate daggers that had just been captured from Carl...... He's a mage anyway, he's just a mage who doesn't even have a staff anyway.
This time, he came to kill people, he came to destroy the door, and he didn't plan to stay alive, but no one dared to guarantee that no one would slip through the net, and Iger couldn't take this risk...... Anyway, the current equipment is also extremely poor, and it doesn't matter if you don't bring it, anyway, he's a mage, and he doesn't plan to rely on equipment Niu B anyway.
He now has a bit of a headache, how to get in?
The big family has this bit of a bad thing, trouble! Because they have money, and if they have money, they can work for them, such as the two fighters who are now keeping vigil at the gate...... Egger is very familiar with this family, there are always 8 warriors working for the tiger, these two are only the lowest-level apprentice swordsmen, there are 4 more guys like this, and the rest is the captain junior swordsman, and there is a terrible junior mage, but even if the family is rich, it is impossible to drive the mage to be on duty at night, right?
In order to prop up the faΓ§ade and show the extraordinaryness of the Frank family, the two apprentice swordsmen on duty at night were swaggered at the entrance of the main gate, one on the left and one on the right, like two door gods...... This is where other nobles who do not have such a strong background envy Earl Frank's Court the most, with a high-end atmosphere and a high grade. Of course, there are also an unknown number of family servants patrolling the courtyard......
For Egg, who is not good, these 8 fighters alone are enough for him, not to mention that there are still twenty or thirty family servants to deal with? But he knew very well that as long as he knocked out these fighters first, then the rest of the guys didn't have to worry...... It's not that they're not a threat at all, but the threat is relatively manageable.
"The other warriors are not on duty, they must be in those wings on the first floor, and the junior swordsman captain should be with them, and as for the mage, it may be on the second floor. So, let's block these new forces on the first floor in the room first, right? β
Iger thought about it, and waited...... At this time, although it is already night, but it is not yet midnight, he either does not make a move, or he makes a thunderous blow, and he wants to pick the weakest garrison of the opponent in the early morning, what he can do at present is to recuperate, etc!
β¦β¦
"Werewolf infiltrator, you carefully sneak over, strike a fatal blow at the swordsman on the left at the right time, be sure to kill the opponent in seconds, I will cooperate with your actions and turn the one on the right into a sheep at the same time, can you do it?"
Iger whispered orders to his entourage, and the werewolf, after receiving the master's order, let out a slight growl from the depths of his throat, grinned humanely, and then immediately moved to stealth, carefully touching the intended target......
Stealth is a fun skill that is a signature and required skill for the Rogue class. Because he was an ally, Egg could see the location of the werewolf infiltrator, but he could barely perceive the location of the stalker if he didn't try to lock on to the faint shadow. This gave him the most intuitive understanding of thieves...... It is worthy of being a cloth killer, once they are given a chance to get closer, I am afraid it will definitely be a nightmare for the spellcaster.
The werewolf infiltrator looked very professional, and when he arrived at the position, he didn't do it directly, but adjusted it slightly, adjusting his state to the best, and then suddenly moved to reveal a blow, and with a sharp slash, he slashed fiercely and accurately at the neck of the apprentice swordsman on the left......
"Poof!"
A great head rose to the sky, bringing up a lot of blood......
Although the werewolf infiltrator is only a 1-star follower, its attack power has reached 2 stars, which is equivalent to the attack power of a junior swordsman, plus the increase in the damage of the manifest blow, and the bonus that the opponent is obviously not on combat alert, this blow causes the effect of instant kill. Before his teammates could react, Egger's sheep transformation technique arrived......
"Huh!"
In such a quiet environment, any noise will seem abrupt. Although the cry of the lamb does not seem to be threatening, someone will definitely react after a while, and now Egg needs to rush for time, if he can eliminate those fighters as soon as possible, then he will basically win......
Summoning all the entourage, and after killing the miserable lamb, he went straight to the wing room on the first floor......
The screams of the guards being killed quickly woke up the night guards, and even the swordsmen began to rise alertly. Egger and his retinue rushed into the hallway on the first floor, leaving the glitter infantry at the door to block the door as meat shields......
The main building of this Earl's Palace, with a classic European bungalow design, rushes into the door to the hall on the first floor, surrounded by various wings, and a large spiral staircase in the center, above which is the second floor, which is the residence of the noble guys. Iger had reason to believe that Count Otto and the most threatening mage would definitely come down from the second floor...... Count Otto is also a warrior, with the strength of a junior swordsman, and it is impossible for him to sit idly by and ignore someone who kills him.
"Follow the direction on the left, room by room! Be quick, and take out as many troublesome swordsmen as you can before they converge. The leper dwarf is in charge of kicking the door! β
"Haha! Let me hug you well! β
The leprosy dwarf is also a 2-star attack power, and the little dwarf directly kicked open the door of the first wing room on the left......
