Chapter 55: Climbing the City

Chapter 55 Climbing the City

Tarrant glanced back at the priest, "Kira Vidon, as a partner, I'll give you a reminder. (Please remember our web address)"

"If Maxine's minions try to forgive my criminals, I will give them the same answer", Kira Veton threw the torch out, and the stick creaked in front of the silent castle as it landed.

"No, I'm going to sue you, you're mentally problematic, you need a priest," Tarrant said earnestly.

"Kira Veton needs a priest? Kira Veton is a priest," she began, her trot quickening, and the three of them followed her.

They stopped in front of the castle's gate, which was about fifteen feet high, the original drawing on the door was so dim that it was unrecognizable, and the plants that had grown out of the cracks in the rock clinged to the wall for most of the area, and if the cracks in the plants and bricks were removed, the castle still showed a rare imposing appearance.

Tarrant pushed hard, the wooden door shook slightly, and a little dust drifted down from the height, "It's been a long time since it's been opened." ”

"You can force your way in," Kira Veton compared the shaking amplitude, "to start." ”

"No, Jim is not Lovell, he has lived on the island for more than ten years, and he is just a mage, I am afraid that this will cause unnecessary misunderstandings", Tarrant looked up at the light of the tower's fire, "Also, remember what the soldiers in Arcco said, 'Trespass on private property'." ”

"To hell" Kira Veton kicked the door, and there was a "buzzing" resonance of air flow between the cracks of the door, and the space inside was very large.

Conasius took out the Spirited Pattern Bag and pulled a slender rope from the pocket, with a three-pronged hook at one end.

"Climbing the wall", Tarrant was slightly surprised, "Do the cavalry also practice siege?"

"Any combat conditions", Connasius took two steps back, looking at the wall of the castle, about thirty feet, he flicked the rope a few times and then flew upward, the three-pronged hook fell straight into the inner side of the wall with a "click", he pulled back and tested, no problem.

Katrina looked straight up, "I'm afraid I won't be able to climb up." ”

"You can," Kira Veton said, staring at the soldiers as they climbed rapidly, "you'll need to take some time to get to know your body." ”

"Shut up, priest," Tarrant said, extinguishing the torch and sticking it on his belt.

Conasius waved his hand at the wall.

Kiraviton poured a mouthful of the dragon and stepped on the wall and slowly climbed upward.

"Tarrant, I'm worried about ......" Catrina still didn't have confidence.

"I'll be with you, catch you at any time", Tarrant smiled, the kind of rope he had seen on the market, which could bear the weight of two full-body armored warriors at the same time, an expensive configuration.

The priest climbed the city walls.

"Come," Tarrant grabbed Katrina's hand, and the mage retreated unconsciously, "I'll help you, just a little challenge." ”

"Hmm......" watched Kira Veton urge Katrina to grab the rope, her feet barely stepping on the wall, and she leaned forward and took a step, "It should be possible." ”

"Very well, go on", Tarrant followed as he climbed the wall.

The mage stepped on the wall, she seemed to be familiar with the environment and gradually accelerated, she didn't realize how fast she was when she climbed the wall, "Oh, I'm afraid of falling", she looked back and saw that Tarrant was only halfway up.

"Exceptional fitness is slowly taking hold, I hope you won't be hungry tonight," the priest grinned and walked to the left.

The team is currently on the patrol wall of the castle, with passages to the left and right of the castle.

"Look," Katrina said, pointing to the night view outside the castle, where the whole island of Gilu unfolded, "It must be beautiful to sit here during the day." ”

"It's a pity you can't see the daytime beauty anymore, hahaha", Kira Veton never skipped in his scoffs.

"Shut up," Tarrant had to remind the priest of every word he had to say.

Conasius gently pushed down the wooden door on the side of the wall, the rusty bracket rustled completely, he grabbed the door frame and lifted it up, a pitch-black passageway, "go this way", he leaned the wooden door against the wall and walked into the passage.

Tarrant stopped at the door, he swept the structure of the castle, the main body of the building is connected to the city wall where it is now, there are three towers designed on the main structure, the tallest tower is at the easternmost end of the city wall, that is, the highest tower can be reached through the Guò inspection passage, the distance is about ten minutes, the castle of this size in Siante can be compared to the royal palace, but unfortunately it can only serve as a landmark on the island of Gilu.

Connasius's torches led the way in the circular passageway, the walls were gray on both sides, the insects became the owners of the castle, there were cobwebs everywhere, the empty shells of flying insects were stained on the nets, the air smelled of stone bricks, and it seemed that the doors and windows of the castle had not been opened for a long time.

Every ten paces or so, there is a small black hole in the wall, similar in size to the nail hole, which hangs over the canvas, but judging from the distribution of dust, there is no obvious square mark on the wall, which indicates that the canvas was taken a long time ago, perhaps ten years ago, after Sir died.

From time to time, Katrina looked back at Tarrant, "I ......"

"What's wrong?" Tarrant saw an element of unease.

"Why is the wall glowing white?"

"White light?" Tarrant didn't notice the light, and the two people at the front of the team stopped alertly, "Where?"

"It's all over the place," Catrina said, standing in the middle of the passageway, "from the time she came in until now." ”

The other three looked at each other and shook their heads together.

"Is it because of the change in perception?" Kiraweton guessed, "her perception is gradually beyond the ordinary, and she can sense things that we can't notice?"

"What?" said Katrina, confused.

"Extinguish the torch," Tarrant whispered, believing that something was hidden in the passage.

Conasius quickly extinguished the torch, and the passage went dark.

"Ah......h

"What's wrong" Tarrant stepped forward quickly, and a cold body crashed into him.

"Brighter", Katrina's panicked voice, "I can see better?"

Damn she has night vision, Tarrant's heart is racing, "it could be some kind of light-sensitive substance", he took out the Tinwo badge and patted Kira Veton and Conasius on the shoulders and quietly activated the energy, "We can see it too." ”

"Tsk," the priest shrugged helplessly, "continue?"

"We've seen something stranger than this, the light-sensitive passage is nothing", Tarrant felt the passage and walked forward, but his heart could not be calmed, and he had to find a way, if Jim could not help them, then the team would have to take a boat back to Wilsin tonight and ask for help from the temple.

A passage appeared on the right, down the stone steps, which were supposed to enter the main body of the castle, the distance of night vision could not penetrate the thick darkness, nothing could be seen below, there were several cracks in the stone steps, and the dust was evenly spread on the stone face.

The team walked through five passages in a row, and a stone staircase appeared around the sixth passage.

"Come, he's waiting for us", Kira Veton pulled out his hammer.

"Wait", Tarrant opened his hand to stop his teammates, "Have you forgotten, Lovell's hut gate has a magic trap, if it's him, then there may be something like this nearby", he had to be careful every step he took, and he wasn't sure which mage was on it.

"Let me detect traps", Katrina walked to the ladder, her palms clasped to her chest, "......"

"What's wrong?" everyone else saw the anomaly.

"I can't remember spells...... "The mage almost buried her head in her robes, "I forgot to memorize spells......"
