Chapter 36: Return to the Castle

Approaching the top of the fortress, Alice asks Luna to open the armor's stealth system, and the two reach the top of the fortress in a way that matches the color of the clouds, where they discover that there is also a radio tower.

The two of them slowly approached the radio tower in front of the top, Alice followed closely behind me, and the two of them cautiously came to the side of the tower, with the help of optical camouflage stealth, and the two of them had to avoid the ice bars on the soles of their feet as much as possible, so as not to cause the sound of the ice bars to kick off the guards. They happened to be facing away from the glare of the sunrise, and as long as the guards inside the outpost didn't want to be blind, they shouldn't have used thermal imaging to observe the top of the tower.

So they had to enter the castle before the sun was fully rising.

The weather has cooled down and the wind is getting stronger. The oil-soaked ropeway below them rattled in the wind, and there were two guards at the sentry post, armed with * and plasma cannons, pacing in the cold wind, but never brave enough to walk up the ropeway.

The sky gradually brightened, which allowed the two to better judge their position and distance. Alice opens her visor and beckons to Luna next to her, handing her a safety rope, apparently not planning to fly. Luna fastened the noose to her body, then fastened the safety latch to the steel cable above her, and quickly slid down the cable.

Alice also slowly slid down after installing the EMP.

There was a "whoosh", and soon, really quickly, Luna was on the wall below, and Alice was on the other side, the steel cable above Luna. For some reason, Luna took off the Ark reactor from her chest, and her armor fell off with it, what did she want to do?

Maybe Luna wants to go down and kill them now, but once she does, her whereabouts will be revealed, and then she will enter the encirclement they have set up again, hasn't her previous experience taught her not to approach them easily? Not to mention that she didn't have any weapons in her hands.

But Luna didn't do that.

She stopped about 50 feet above the ground and watched the guards carefully. Luckily, they just wandered listlessly, without warning, much to Luna's delight. The only change was that the lights at the outpost were turned off, and it seemed that there were more than two guards outside.

If you want to kill them, Alice's preparation alone is never enough. Luna constantly surveyed the ground around her, trying to find some equipment to handy, and as Luna searched for weapons, she felt the air around her freeze all at once.

Alice took a few steps forward, and then listened to a broken wall, she "swooped" off her armor and landed on the back of a soldier below, quickly strangled the man's neck with her hand, and after a moment she twisted his spine with great force, and then quickly pulled the * trigger on his back, and the crossbow was facing another patrolling soldier, and before he could turn around, there was an extra crossbow arrow around his neck. The third soldier sensed that something was wrong outside, and might have been surrounded by soldiers called by the siren, but no. Because of the soldier's stupid decision, Luna and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

The third soldier jerked out of the outpost, and before he could notice his surroundings, Luna raised her sword and flew at him with all her might, the blade splitting through the soldier's helmet, shattering his skull, and knocking him to his knees before falling straight to the ground.

Luna then beckons to Alice's position, signaling that she can come, and Alice loots the soldiers.

Alice tossed the sword to Luna, who took it and looked at it.

Luna held it flat in her hand and spun against the wind, yes, the weight and speed made her feel handy. Just then, Alice kicked me away, and she dodged the flying bolts. She was lucky enough to dodge a crossbow bolt that went straight to her throat and pierced her collar, and I could clearly see the bolt as it grazed her skin.

The shooting suddenly stopped, and the soldiers with bows in front of them turned around and were busy with something else. Luna was surprised and took a closer look at them.

They are turning the winch of the city gates!

Luna realized that we were facing a large closed oak gate, the winch was wrapped in cables, and now they were unraveling them one by one, so that when all the cables were loosened, they would only be able to become meatloaf as the gate fell, and even if they had the ability to recover, they would have to wait until they were rescued, and they didn't.

"Hell!" Luna dropped her sword and sprang forward. These ridiculous but thrilling things could have happened to her twice in two days, and just as the gate was about to fall, Luna jumped into the air, grabbed Alice's hand, and fell to the ground.

The gate "boomed" and fell to the ground, and the force of the fall not only blew a large amount of dust, but also splashed the "meat sauce" of the corpses around them.

In a hazy dusty wind, Luna hurriedly picked up a sharp wooden stick on the ground and swung it at the soldier who was looking for their corpse, stabbing the broken wooden stick into the man's neck! The blow broke the broken wooden rod in half, and I pulled out the long sword from the waist of the soldier in front of me, and stabbed the other soldier in the chest.

The dust had cleared, and Alice was back-to-back with her sword in hand, and the other four hurriedly dropped their crossbows and drew their swords as they went, and surrounded them. The two of them thought quickly, no other guards had come out now, and no one had sounded the alarm, which meant that if they wanted to go to the castle, they would have to deal with the four guards before anyone else found out. But there was another problem: the four guards in front of them were all in high spirits.

Luna and Alice raised their swords and looked at their enemies one by one. Then, shouting and shouting, they surrounded them, so they had to fight as quickly as possible to get them back to silence. They looked terrified, and their haphazard swings made the battle already clear. The two lifted their bodies up and dropped them off the cliff, and Alice pulled a line along the sides of the gate, with two ponytails tied to each end of the line*, and Alice handed Luna a piece of cloth, which was optical camouflage, and the two of them put it on and walked towards the castle.

The optical camouflage did a good job of concealing the whereabouts of the two, and they quickly reached the bottom of the castle. The sun had fully risen, and the blue sky was inlaid with a golden sphere-shaped object.

Luna looked up at the castle, the walls of which were already in their prime, and the mottled walls provided plenty of places for the two of them to climb and settle. Luna turns on the projection screen reflecting the castle's blueprint again, follows the blueprint, and begins to climb upwards. About fifty feet above them was a window from which the doors leading to the hallways and hallways could be accessed.

The climb was harder than expected, and Luna slowly moved her arms to climb upwards.

By the time the sun was fully shining, the two had fully climbed the castle wall and reached the window. Upon entering the window, there is a post to the right of the two, and Luna notices that the soldiers there are trying to look down the hill, and it seems that they have noticed something unusual about the outpost at the bottom of the mountain.

Luna's weapon was most likely in that outpost, and Luna slowly climbed into the hallway and remained undetected. The two of them moved slowly, slowly moving along the path that led to the watchtower.

The two crept along the darkest part of the passage, their slow progress unnoticed. As for Luna, they don't want to start a pointless fight, as if they were fighting, even if they had armor, they would be doomed if they faced the wolf pack tactics.

There were not a few soldiers in the castle, and it seemed that they all ran down to look for the soldiers in the city gate outpost, and sure enough, there were several muffled sounds of "bang bang" from the city gate. Alas, it seems that there are a few more unlucky men left there......

In front of them were two elderly guards, who had not been awakened from their sleep by the muffled noise of the door, a glass full of wine and two wooden glasses on their table, the guards snoring at each other. The two cautiously walked over, and with a glance of the afterglow, Luna noticed that one of them was carrying a bunch of keys attached to him.

Excuse me, Luna and Alice lunged at each other, and before they could wake up, we slammed the blade through their throats and pulled it hard to the right, and before they could make a bloody foaming sound, their heads landed on the table.

In this way, you can avoid future troubles. The two of them got the key, then picked up the torch and went up the stairs. However, facing them were thick iron gates.

The two of them had to speed up, but the work was urgent, they had to insert the corresponding key into the corresponding keyhole, and at the same time had to make sure that the sound of the door did not attract the guards, and when they tried to open the fifth door, they were pleasantly surprised to find that they were faced with a huge arsenal of weapons, all kinds of cold weapons and * were neatly arranged on the weapon rack.

The wall lamps illuminate the surroundings, and with night vision in her right eye, Luna quickly finds her weapon. Fortunately, I didn't lose a single one, not even touched. Luna breathed a sigh of relief that it would be over if the people here were aware of the principle of the longsword she had gotten from Victoria.

Luna stretched her palm to the right, and the sword returned to hers.

Luna turned it into data and put it back in the limiter, then looked around, where all the rest of the weapons she had brought on the trip were stored, they were all well placed, Luna checked them one by one, checked that the blade was still sharp, and then carefully put it into the scabbard. Luna collects the shattered PS armor and the broken Sleeve Blade into her waist pocket. After that, she picked up the "Encore pistol" in an old wooden box on the table, then flicked open its magazine, found the dummies placed on the side, put one in it, and checked the switchblade and the Ares Blade in her hand, placing them on her body one by one.

At this time, there was an inexplicable light upstairs, and the two of them quickly hid, who was it? Could it be that their whereabouts have been discovered?

But after a few moments, they realized they were wrong.
