Dark clouds gradually covered the original bright moon, and the faintly howling wind and wet breath in the air seemed to herald the arrival of a storm.

However, it is clear that the torrential rain can no longer have the same effect on the renovated Blackstone Castle as it once did.

With the help of high-tech machinery and artificial soldiers with explosive manual ability after instilling relevant information, the seemingly old stone castle is now full of traces of high-end mechanical civilization in the shadows.

Countless fluorescent lamps in the shape of magic lamps illuminate the corridors that should have been plunged into darkness after nightfall.

The hidden central air conditioning and powerful automatic drainage system make it possible to rely on simple drainage holes and rain-blocking structures in the past, and every rainstorm will form a small "ocean" castle inside, and there is no need to worry about irrigation.

In addition, there are artificial soldiers in alloy armor who act as guards, constantly patrolling the entire castle and beyond.

The artificial female thieves scattered in the shadows, combined with those electronic machines hidden in the shadows, form an extremely tight surveillance network, which is absolutely impregnable if it is on Earth.

However, it is clear that this is not a world that will operate strictly according to the laws of physics created by humans on Earth.

Therefore, no one can predict what kind of accident will happen in the next moment.

In the brightly lit corridor, a five-man patrol squad of artificial warriors walked by with a serious face.

Their sharp gaze swept carefully across every corner, and the bonus brought by the energy in their bodies after the transfer made their already terrifying perception sharper and sharper, even the reptiles in the cracks of the masonry could not escape their sight.

However, just as they left the corner, an invisible figure that had left the wall at a slight distance, but was clinging to that position, completely invisible to the naked eye, suddenly moved slowly.

This is undoubtedly an experienced, yet very powerful infiltrator.

He was much shorter than a normal human, like a child, but his movements were extremely sophisticated.

Although he already has the ability to be hidden as if he is in another world, his movements are still extremely gentle, extremely silent, trying not to make unnecessary contact with anything.

The strange but extremely effective movements made him seem to not even have a trace of air waves in between actions.

However, this does not mean that the easily accessible infiltrator would take the castle's protection lightly.

In fact, at this moment, his equally invisible eyes were full of doubt and solemnity.

This is already the tenth wave of patrols he has escaped, and at the same time, counting the more than a dozen outposts ambushed by junior thieves (artificial female thieves), the others who have not been seen, and the guys hiding in this seemingly humble castle do not know how many.

This undoubtedly surprised him very much, and even frightened him.

That's right, it was indeed fear, because he found that these guards, who were usually ordinary soldiers, were all real professionals!

This is an exaggeration!

You know, not to mention a barbaron in the barren mountains and mountains, even the vast majority of dukes can't be so extravagant and can use so many professionals as ordinary guards!

This is also related to the preciousness and power of professionals.

Professionals are not only scarce, but also have much more power than ordinary people, even if they are junior professionals, they must be at the level of a hundred enemies among ordinary people of their respective races, even if they look at the whole world, they will have a relatively high status, and they will naturally develop their arrogance.

Therefore, whether it is due to limited conditions or cost considerations, the big people in the eyes of ordinary people often often use only a small number of junior professionals as team leaders, leading some ordinary soldiers as regular forces to guard.

As for the strong who broke in?

It is often left to a few more senior professionals hired at a high price.

That is, the royal families of various countries, and a small number of powerful nobles, have the strength to treat professionals as ordinary guards in the Lake Palace or Castle, and their most important appeal.

And what he saw now was the opposite of normal common sense!

Along the way, the powerful intermediate and above professionals didn't see much, but a lot of dealing with the professionals popped up.

This is undoubtedly very abnormal.

Excluding the fact that the other party has mobilized all the professionals in the territory here, and at the same time everyone is still working hard, so that the interest rate is extremely small, it can only show that there are a lot of professionals under the other party, and they are not ordinary!

Even rich enough to pull out a team to act as an ordinary guard without care!

"This new Baron Blackstone, there's something weird..."

Thinking of this, a sense of uneasiness suddenly appeared in his heart.

And this uneasiness not only did not decrease in the slightest as he deepened, but became more and more intense, looking at the bright corridor, he seemed to see a bloody mouth that he wanted to open, and he couldn't wait to devour himself!

However, just before he was about to be shocked by this invisible pressure and the idea of leaving for a while appeared, a delicate door completely different from the ordinary bedroom suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

His eyes swept over the two maids who were dozing in the doorway, waiting to be summoned at any moment, and he immediately realized that his goal was here!

"As the last tulip bloodline, it is estimated that there is no second person in the entire castle except for the young baron who will have such treatment..."

The thought crossed his mind in an instant, and the figure hesitated slightly, but still pulled out two daggers from his waist that were also transparent under the shroud of his special abilities.

Of course, because of his stature, these two weapons the size of a normal human dagger can be regarded as short swords in his hands.

Quietly approaching the two maids who kept nodding their heads because of sleepiness, he didn't kill them directly with his weapon.

It's not that these two cute girls make him soft-hearted, but because he's afraid that the smell of blood will alert his real target.

As an existence that has wandered in the dark for many years, for him, even if the odds are small, he tries his best to avoid this unexpected situation.

Fortunately, he was well prepared and had already considered the emergence of this situation, and naturally had corresponding ways to deal with it.

He took out a little ointment and applied it to his fingertips, and then shook the tips of the noses of the two maids with his tiny fingers, and the smell of the ointment dyed their hair suddenly made the two of them quickly fall asleep.

During all this time, there was not even a trace of abnormal sound, as if the two maids couldn't stand the sleepiness and fell asleep by themselves... (To be continued.) )
