Chapter 688: The Sleeping Guard
"They came closer. ”
The corridors of the palace were dimly lit and silent, except for Benjamin, who was disguised as a personal bodyguard, standing outside the door of the king's bedroom and whispering into the room.
"Then, do it, and arrest them all!" came the king's voice, sounding a little panicked.
Benjamin comforted: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I won't put you in danger." ”
Then, together with the system, he continued to observe the movements of the two men.
Probably from the time the two siblings cast a spell to control the guards, the system was aware of their existence. After the system relayed, Benjamin also came to the spirit all of a sudden. The enemy came sooner than he expected, and he thought that this boring life of a guard would continue for another ten days and a half months.
And, it seems, these two should have been hiding in Glory before.
Accidentally killing Spencer, Benjamin already feels sorry. Now that there are finally two guys from the overseas sect, of course he can't miss this opportunity, and he has to study the process of these people's spell casting.
"Have you recorded the flow of their spiritual power?" he asked in his mind as he observed.
"It's interesting. The system said to himself, "Their spiritual power is indeed imitating the elemental plane, but it's just ...... They also seem to have undergone some makeovers. It's a very special frequency, and even if I don't examine it carefully, I can't even feel anything. ”
Benjamin touched his chin thoughtfully.
Frequency...... Is it?
This is another fresh concept worth pondering.
"How do they change their psychic frequency?" he asked in his mind, "The psychic frequency of each creature should be fixed...... If mental power really has such a thing as frequency. ”
The system said impatiently: "Of course there is, the frequency of the spiritual power of a high-level creature like me is completely different from that of you ordinary humans. ”
“......”
Benjamin shook his head, and could only close his eyes, trying to feel the frequency of spiritual power emanating from those two people.
In fact, he couldn't sense anything from the two men at all. Perhaps, as the system says, Benjamin and their mental power have long been out of the same frequency. Because of this, there will be no resonance between their mental powers, and Benjamin will not be able to sense anything.
But...... How do these people control the spirits of those guards with the frequency of alienation?
It's a bit confusing.
While Benjamin was thinking, the two siblings also quietly entered the corridors of the palace by controlling the guards around them.
In order to let people from overseas sects in, in fact, the king has secretly relaxed the vigilance here, otherwise these two people would not be as relaxed as they are now. In the empty corridor, they walked around in it, but they didn't even meet a single servant, and they were also "lucky".
Benjamin was actually a little worried that if it was too obvious, the other party would be alert. But obviously, he was thinking too much, and the two of them didn't look like they might have a trap at all.
Moreover, it is still two children who are so young......
Benjamin couldn't help but wonder if this overseas sect was withering, and even such children were sent abroad?
Meanwhile.
Being stared at secretly by countless pairs of eyes, the two siblings are not aware of it yet. They followed the route left for them by Spencer, and quietly groped in the direction of the king's bedchambers.
"Sister...... I think it's weird here. Halfway through, the young man couldn't help but whisper, "How can there be no servants in such a big palace." There can't be a trap here, right?"
"What's weird? it's the goddess helping us!" the girl glanced back at him, "I told you a long time ago, the goddess will help us in secret, you still don't believe it...... Do you know that this is disrespectful to the goddess?"
"I—I was wrong. ”
"Alright, don't talk, we're almost there. ”
The king's chambers were located in the depths of the palace, but they knew the route and walked quickly "with divine help" along the way. It took them about ten minutes to go up to the third floor and come to the corridor where the king's chambers were located.
"Wait a minute! there...... It seems that there are people too!"
As soon as she emerged from the corner, the girl immediately retracted and whispered to the boy.
"Is it the King's personal guard?" the young man asked in a whisper, a little panicked, "Did he see you......?" We—let's run!"
"Shh......h
The girl glanced again, then turned her head and made a silent gesture towards the boy. Then she crept around the corner on her own.
When the boy saw this, he was almost stunned.
"You...... What are you going to do? Why, how can there be such a righteous and bright ......?"
The girl laughed directly.
"Oh, okay, don't be afraid, come here. She beckoned to the boy and whispered, "Look, the king's personal guard has long since fallen asleep against the wall!"
The boy was stunned, but at the urging of the girl, he could only walk out tremblingly. Then, following the direction of the girl's finger, he looked up and saw a figure leaning against the wall.
At that moment, his expression was also a little incredulous.
"Actually...... Can you still fall asleep?" he scratched the back of his head, "I thought that being the king's personal bodyguard was usually a very capable person. ”
The girl patted him on the shoulder and said in a deep tone, "All this is the guidance of the goddess. ”
When the boy heard this, he took a deep breath and began to fold his hands in a prayer posture. After all this, he also came to be convinced of the results of their earlier divination—that they would be able to take control of the king of Carretus tonight, and carve out a new home for their compatriots far away.
Then, they walked over on tiptoe.
When they came to the sleeping guard, the two of them looked closer, and they could even hear a faint shout coming from the guard's nose. The girl's expression was a little like laughing, but she quickly turned her head and made a throat-slitting motion towards the boy.
- Do you want to get rid of this problem first?
The boy hurriedly shook his head.
"Just keep the king under control, and don't make any extraneous troubles. He tried to open his mouth wide and conveyed such a sentence with his mouth shape. Seeing this, the girl shrugged her shoulders and did not object.
They turned their backs to the sleeping guard and touched the door to the king's bedchamber.
The door must have been locked, and it was impossible for the two of them to have the key to unlock it. However, the boy quickly pulled out a few wires from his waist bag and skillfully inserted them into the lock. With a creaking sound, the locked gate soon began to loosen.
Seeing this, the girl couldn't help but show a little excited.
It's going to be successful......
Of course, she didn't expect the whole process to go so smoothly. Even the priest couldn't stop the mage, so she was really ready to die at any time before entering the palace.
However, she didn't even see the shadow of half a mage here.
How stupid is that mage? Do you really think that if you kill the priest, the king will have nothing to do?
Just as she was thinking so......
"For such a young child, don't think about these sneaky hookups all day long, how bad. A joking voice came from behind them, and they were instantly shocked into a cold sweat.
