Chapter 687: The figure that infiltrated the palace

Late at night.

The streets of Glory were fairly quiet during this time. Another sect was branded as a cult because of its misdeeds, and it was wanted throughout the territory, and the people in the city were also a little frightened, and as long as it was night, few people would go out.

Therefore, in the secluded street north of the palace, two figures flashed by, and no one noticed them.

It was two short men, a man and a woman, who didn't seem to be very old. They were dressed in pitch-black clothes and covered their faces with black cloths, giving them the appearance of the assassins they had infiltrated.

"Sister...... Should we really go into the palace?"

After the two stopped at a corner, the girl poked her head out of the corner and looked cautiously out of the intersection. The boy leaned his back against the wall, took a deep breath, and said with a little fear.

"Of course!" said the girl, turning her head and categorically, "you have seen the results of yesterday's prayer to the Goddess, right? The guards of the palace will be extremely weak, and we will only need to dive within ten meters of the waste king to fix everything back. ”

"Yes...... The High Priests have failed, and they must be on guard now, should we wait a little longer?"

When the girl heard this, she suddenly let out a soft snort: "What? Are you scared?"

"How is that possible? I ......"

"If you're scared, go back now. But the girl interrupted him, turned her head, turned her back to the boy, and said, "Take the boat back to the island and live your safe life." I can accomplish the mission of the goddess alone. ”

The boy took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and finally shook his head.

“...... Okay! I'll go in with you. ”

"That's pretty much it. When the girl heard this, she also turned her head and smiled, and then said fiercely, "If you really want to escape back, I will break your legs, and I will never let you go back to the island to disgrace our family!"

“......”

"Alright, don't be in a daze, the patrol guard is gone. We need to get closer to the kingdom as soon as possible. ”

The girl tugged at the corner of the young man's clothes, and the two of them quietly touched out of the corner one after the other. The street ahead was empty, and the location of the royal palace was about two blocks in front of them.

It took about five minutes for them to reach the perimeter at the back of the palace. From here, there are guards everywhere. Even in the middle of the night, energetic soldiers stood in the corners of the checkpoints, their eyes wandering through the suspicious shadows.

The boy saw those sharp eyes, and subconsciously shrank again.

"We ...... Can you get there?"

"Of course we can't. The girl said, pulling a small bottle from her waist, "But I have the treasure that the priest has left us." ”

The young man looked at the small bottle and couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

"This is ......"

"That's right, it took the elder decades to refine the elixir. With a solemn face, the girl slowly uncorked the bottle, "As long as we drink him, we will temporarily have the strength to rival the priest." ”

When the young man heard this, he couldn't help but show a little excitement. However, after he glanced towards the palace, the excitement on his face disappeared again for some reason, and he couldn't help but shrink a few steps into the shadows.

"Yes...... I still think it's a bit reckless. He said slowly, "You think, the priests are all dead inside, and that mage must be very powerful." Even if the two of us drink the elixir, how can we beat him?"

The girl frowned: "Are you scared again?"

"No, I just don't think it'...... right"

"That's enough! you're questioning the Goddess's mission to us!" the girl shook her head, a look of disappointment, "Maybe that mage is extremely powerful, but so what? Don't forget, the Goddess is guiding us forward. ”

"Yes...... What if we die inside?"

"That's also dying for a glorious mission, and the heroic spirits of our parents under the deep sea will be proud of us. ”

When the boy heard this, he couldn't stop sighing, and finally took the small bottle from the girl's hand and drank half of the potion. As for the other half, it was drunk by the girl in one gulp.

Then, the girl dropped the empty bottle, took a deep breath, and whispered, "Let's start." ”

The boy nodded vigorously. Two pairs of young eyes, shimmering in the dark night sky.

There was some commotion among the guards in front, and the sound of the girl dropping the bottle just now was obviously heard by them. So, after a moment of deliberation, four or five guards broke away from the ranks and walked towards the corner of the street.

"Who's there? Come out! I see you!"

The soldier who walked in the front casually deceived with words, but unexpectedly, he really let him deceive two figures.

"Hands, he saw us!"

With a whisper, the guards were startled and wanted to exclaim. However, a strong sense of oppression came from their hearts, drowning their minds at once.

How...... How......

At that moment, they felt as if something was stirring in their heads, extremely painful, but gradually gave birth to an inexplicable sense of relief, as if they had walked into some place full of smoke clouds, and peace and tranquility gradually came to their hearts.

What happened next, they don't remember exactly.

"Sister, let's ...... We seem to have succeeded!"

Looking at the guards whose eyes were out of focus and confused, the young man was stunned, and suddenly showed an excited expression. If it weren't for the fear of being heard by someone from afar, he might even shout it out.

"yes...... This is the power that the Goddess gives us. The girl looked at the guards in a daze, and after a moment she shook her head and came back to her senses.

"I've got to move fast, it's not going to last long. ”

As she spoke, she and the boy instructed the guards to come over. At their command, two of the shortest guards began to take off their armor, which they also took and quickly began to put on themselves.

"Is it really okay to sneak in disguised as a guard......? It's a bit silly. While changing clothes, the young man couldn't help but whisper.

"Shut up, just change!" the girl shouted in a low voice.

After about half a minute, the two of them put on the guard's armor, and in the dark night, they really couldn't see any difference from the other guards. So, he killed the two unarmored guards with his knife, and the two of them walked towards the palace with the other guards who had been struck by the spell.

"What's wrong? It seems to be a little noisy over there?"

On the periphery of the palace, the leader of the guards looked at the few people who came and asked.

"It's okay, a stinky drunkard who fell on the path and shattered the bottles. Under the guidance of the spiritual power of the two of them, one of the guards spoke, and naturally scolded, "That guy almost rushed towards us with a wine bottle!"

"......Shh It's really terrible to be drunk near the palace. ”

The leader shook his head, as if bothering to ask what they were doing with the drunkard, turned his head, and went on patrol in another place. Seeing this, the two sisters and brothers also breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Slowly walking into the ranks of guards, they exchanged glances with each other.

Then, the spiritual power spread silently through the ranks of the guards like dense tentacles.
