Chapter 320: Observing the Castle
The Thunderbolt Headquarters was a long way from the Holy Fort, and by the time we arrived at the Holy Fort, it was already three hours later.
At this time, it was already dark, but the streets were still brightly lit, and there were still many people shopping on the streets.
This section is also very prosperous in the Bren Zipline, but the most eye-catching is the architecture of the Holy Land Castle.
At first, when I saw the floor plan of the castle and the idea in my head, I could imagine what the castle would look like.
But now that I see the real castle, that grandeur suddenly arises, even if I don't know that it is Duke Samochi who lives here, I'm afraid the identity is not simple.
Under the reflection of the streets, the whole holy castle is another scene at night, and the sense of age is instantly reflected.
However, these are only a third of the face of the Holy Castle, and most of it is still hidden in the dark.
Huayu and I observed the situation around the castle, and since we were located in a downtown area, it was basically impossible to enter from here.
Moreover, the main entrance of the castle is located in this location, and if you enter from here, I am afraid that before the guards of the castle can find out, the surrounding shopping people will immediately rush to watch.
I said to Huayu, "Let's go look somewhere else." ”
Huayu started the car and continued to drive forward, until he came to a place where no one was there before stopping the car.
"This is already the edge of the castle, and it is about 500 meters away from the castle, if we want to go in, we have to start here."
While Hua Yu spoke, I was also looking at the location, just now we came here from the downtown area, the curvature of this section of the road is just the same as the ancient castle, but further forward is the back to the ancient castle.
I asked Hua Yu to keep driving the car until it was about two kilometers away from the castle before I let Hua Yu stop the car again.
When I got out of the car, I looked at where we were, and I couldn't see the castle clearly, and it was surrounded by a large area of woods.
Hua Yu got out of the car and took out the things we had prepared from the trunk of the car.
Huayu took out a headset from his backpack and handed it to me, I put it on and said, "Xiaomi, can you see where we are now?" ”
Shu Xiaomi's retention in Thunderbolt by me was not only to investigate the assassins, but also to be our backup.
We came to the Holy Land Castle this time, because we were too busy, so we were not too prepared.
But for ease of movement, we brought only ropes, pistols, and two short daggers, which were already equipped with mufflers.
In addition, we also brought a reconnaissance plane, and the high-altitude monitoring distance was about 5,000 meters, so that we could walk through the castle without being detected.
Shu Xiaomi's voice came from the earphones: "You can see, I show here that you are still two kilometers away from the ancient castle, you release the reconnaissance plane first, and I will explore the road for you first." ”
After Hua Yu turned on the switch of the reconnaissance plane, the reconnaissance plane slowly took off, and disappeared into the night two seconds later.
I beckoned Huayu to go into the forest, both with knives in their hands, also to prevent animals from sneaking up at night.
In a semi-primeval forest like this, it is also possible that the king of the jungle such as the tiger and leopard will appear.
But we were close to the edge of the castle and we were all right.
Hua Yu said to Shu Xiaomi on the other end: "Xiaomi, we have now reached the edge of the ancient castle, is there any situation on your side?" ”
Shu Xiaomi said: "I've already scouted here, it's still too early, there are not only guards in the castle, but there are also personnel patrolling regularly on the castle wall, and it's not easy to touch." ”
I pressed my hand to the headset and whispered, "So how long do they patrol at intervals?" ”
Shu Xiaomi paused for a moment and said, "Patrol about every twenty minutes, if you want to go in, then you must complete it within these twenty minutes, otherwise it will be troublesome to be discovered." ”
"Okay, you can help us monitor the situation at any time, and keep in touch if you have any questions."
After I finished speaking, I looked up at the top of the castle, it was already dark at this time, and there was no moon tonight, so the visibility was very low.
The location of the castle watchtower should not be able to see the situation here, but the cross-lit wheel of searchlights also gave us a headache.
Hua Yu looked at the searchlight on the sentry tower and said, "This searchlight will shine every ten seconds, so if we want to pass, we must be fast, as long as we touch the edge of the fort wall, there is the dead end of the sentry." ”
Hua Yu and I squatted behind two big trees, and the area of the searchlight was huge, if it weren't for these two trees, I'm afraid we would have been discovered a long time ago.
Now we are less than 200 meters away from the fort wall, and there are about 10 meters or so in the back section that should not be observed.
Ten seconds to run nearly 200 meters, even a world sprint champion is impossible.
I was in a dilemma when Hua Yu suddenly pointed to the big tree in the distance and said, "We can run there first, and then get closer to the castle." ”
I poked my eye in the direction that Hua Yu was pointing, and sure enough, there was a tree of the same size as our position not far from us.
I visually measured the distance, turned my head and said, "This is not good, the distance is too close, if you are found in the process of running, the bullets on the sentry tower will not have eyes." ”
Hua Yu said to me, "We only have two choices now, either run over without sparing any effort, or turn around and go back to find another way." ”
I said in my heart that this is a good thing, and it's a little difficult to come back when I come, is that my usual style?
The answer is definitely no.
I tried my best to find out here, turned around and went back, can this be worthy of my practice in the office for half a year?
"I'll go first, and you'll come back when I get to the place."
Saying that, I didn't wait for Hua Yu to have any thoughts, and ran over when I saw the tree.
Since it was not far away, I was already at the place before the searchlight could spot me.
I looked back at Hua Yu and noticed that she had a slightly worried look on her face.
I gestured to her to tell her not to worry, and then looked at the watchtower on the fort wall and the searchlight next to it.
At this moment, the searchlights just crossed over from my position, and my position was all in the middle, so it was relatively far away in terms of time and distance.
I hurriedly half-crouched, and just as the last glimmer of the searchlight disappeared from front of me, I kicked my right foot violently, and my body rushed out like a loose horse.
Although it is impossible to run the remaining 100 meters in 10 seconds, I found a problem when I got closer, and that is that there is still a little distance in the aperture of these lights.
It's ten seconds, but it takes two or three seconds to actually cross over to a point.
