Chapter 156: Maple Manor's Horror Night (1)
At night, Li Xuan quietly worked in the pavilion on the third floor, looking at a historical record related to education about the world, the book is a very standardized bound book, and the neatly cut parchment is even marked with the number of pages, and the whole book has more than 50 sheets, that is, more than 100 pages.
The name of the book is very simple, called "Cultural Enlightenment", the content in it is very complicated, but it is very orderly, there are text learning, there is a simple explanation of the historical background of the Arissanret Empire, and the content of the arithmetic course, the most surprising thing for Li Xuan is that it also introduces some very basic physics knowledge, a small part of which makes Li Xuan very surprised.
This book "Cultural Enlightenment" actually mentions the common sense of physics similar to two iron balls landing on the ground at the same time, although the method described is very simple, mentioning that if a bunch of blacksmiths of different sizes fall from the tower, the speed of the iron sword falling is the same, not because the larger the iron sword, the faster it is.
Seeing some of the contents of this book, Li Xuan has some new understanding of the knowledge and technology level of this world, he is only a small border town, and this world is so big, there are too many places that he has not been to, too many technologies have not been contacted.
After reading it carefully for a long time, he put away this "Cultural Enlightenment", and after reading some codex and scrolls related to education, Li Xuan began to feel a little tired, cleaned up the table, got up and walked into the room.
When he walked into the room, Li Xuan was a little surprised to smell a faint fragrance, it was the smell of Lilian's body, Li Xuan remembered that Lilian slept in his room yesterday, and glanced at the bed, Li Xuan's heart couldn't help but fluctuate a little, today when Lilian said goodbye and went back to the magic guild, she didn't keep it, just asked her to be more careful, and came to the manor to find him if there was something, Lilian had some resentful eyes at the time, and she didn't have a particularly deep feeling, and now it's night, when she returned to the bed where the two people had rolled, Li Xuan suddenly felt a little reluctant。
After shaking off the messy thoughts in his head, Li Xuan took off his coat, lay down on the bed, and quickly fell asleep.
On the west side of Maple Leaf Manor, most of the civilians in the civilian area have been relocated to the new address arranged by Feuerbach, and there are still a few people who have not been cleaned because there are still some sundries in the house, and a few pieces remain in the original house.
Meng Feila followed behind a group of elves, lurking in an empty room, this room is only a few meters away from the Maple Leaf Manor, the high wall of the Maple Leaf Manor is more than 3 meters high, if you want to climb over, it is not very difficult, a group of people quietly wait for the night to come.
In the night operation, Meng Feila finally participated, and the temptation of the ring of life in Li Xuan's hand during the day today was too great for the elves, so big that they desperately planned to sneak into the Maple Leaf Manor to steal the ring.
The initiator of this stupid action was the young elven mage Rosni, who, despite her young age, had already mastered a lot of magic, and her magic power had basically reached the threshold of a high-level magician.
This operation, there was no plan, it was to sneak into the Maple Leaf Manor collectively, and then steal the ring, but did not steal it, and then apologize to Master Li Xuan when he grabbed it. This was Rosney's true idea, and the plan was approved by all the elves.
In order to avoid the total annihilation of these stupid elves, Monfila finally got involved and took over the command.
Memphira's plan is that everyone lurks on the west side of the manor, and then waits until late at night, after a spirit first touches the manor, and then leaves one on the wall to pay attention to the movements in the manor, if the first elf can successfully reach the main building, find a window from the main building to cover the elves left behind on the wall, and all the staff sneak into the manor, and then try not to alarm the guards, find the room where Li Xuan lives, and then steal the ring.
Memphira told the elves about the plan that was not planned, and it was unanimously approved. Although she didn't think the plan would work at all, it was better than no plan at all.
Looking at the group of elves who had all fallen asleep, Monfila walked outside the room with some weakness, and sat down cautiously in a shadow, carefully observing the surroundings.
At this moment, in the civilian area on the east side of the manor, a group of men in black and gray clothes lurked in several empty rooms with sharp eyes, each man held a somewhat heavy crossbow in his hand, a group of people did not say a word and waited for the night to move a little deeper, the man at the head had an ugly and strange scar on his face, he touched the crossbow in his hand, and whispered "tsk" to a respectful man beside him.
"I didn't see such a good crossbow in Arissanret's army before, and I really want to find someone to test the power of this crossbow now. The scar-faced man whispered with a smile.
"After a while late at night, you will have to shoot in the manor, and there are dozens of people in the manor, how can you get a few. The other replied in a low voice.
The scar-faced man shook his head: "Hehe, that's not accurate, more than 20 people, a total of 20 strong crossbows, if you slow down, maybe you won't be able to divide 1." ”
"It's best to sneak in and kill the manor master, so you don't have to get into a conflict with Kassan, this girl's archery is no joke, it is said that when escorting a caravan, she once shot through the throat of a thief several times in a row, which is not something that ordinary archers can do. Another whispered.
The scar-faced man sneered a few times, didn't speak, just stood up, walked out, looked around carefully, chuckled a few times with some nonchalance, and slowly walked into the room, looked at another person and said, "Kashan? Hmph, it's better for her to be in the manor, otherwise it will be too boring to fight and kill too quickly." ”
The other person looked at the scar-faced man, and when he wanted to say something, he couldn't help but swallow his stomach back, his party had a full 20 such terrifying strong crossbows, and under a round of salvo, even if it was a sixth-order legendary powerhouse, he would have to hate it.
After all, this kind of strong crossbow in his hand is dismantled and modified from a griffin crossbow that specializes in dealing with griffins, not only has a very fast rate of fire, but also has great power, and it is definitely extremely important to be able to give this kind of strong crossbow to deal with a manor owner.
His own group of people have come to Carouston City from many places, and after this transaction, each person will still have an income of 50 gold coins, and these strong crossbows will be their own when the time comes, this transaction is extremely cost-effective.
