Chapter 371: The Runaway Prince
White-Hayvog had only half told him about the dilapidated wooden house, and his guards had indeed heard that it was a secret stronghold of the Cult of Sacred Birds, but the guards had also heard that the room was haunted, and when they looked inside the door, they saw the occupants of the room suddenly disappear. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
White tossed and turned in bed for most of the night, and finally, driven by guilt and fear, he sneaked here without his guards. He soon discovers that the rumors of the haunting are true—not only will the room suddenly disappear from the occupancy, but a terrifying old man will appear in the form of an inky liquid. He watched the slime slip through the crack outside the door, and then he heard a noise inside.
It was one of the three.
However, what angered White the most was that the teenager he saved his life didn't seem to buy his account:
"What have you done!?He's just an old man!He's angry because we broke into his house, and I'm trying to settle the matter peacefully!"
"Where would an ordinary old man turn into slime!"
White blushed and pointed at the old man who had fallen to the ground, and the mucus that bound Richard's hands loosened a lot under his bricks, and Richard was able to break free without any problems. White didn't stop asking, "Also, would an ordinary old man casually pull out a short knife?"
White was just about to kick the dangerous-looking short knife to the side, when the old man lying on the ground moved his right hand and grabbed his left leg like a corpse, coupled with his wide dark green pupils, White almost jumped up in fright.
It's really haunted here!
He knew the strength of the brick just now, and he was hit in the back of the head so hard that even the young and strong guards of their family would be unconscious for a while. White felt that beneath the other man's ugly, wrinkled skin must be hiding a terrifying creature like an evil spirit.
"Hey, come and help me!" he called out for help to Richard, who was standing by, as he kicked the old man who had fallen to the ground with his other foot. Is this still the work of a man? The eldest young master of the Haworg family came to save people alone, and the man he saved his life saw that he was in trouble, and actually stood in place like a stake.
He regretted it a little. If I knew that this wooden house was so evil, I should have let these three people fend for themselves here.
"Two ......" The old man's voice seemed to come from the call of hell: "Hurry up...... Tell me, where is one of your friends?"
"Everyone, calm down, White must not have meant it just now, this is all a misunderstanding!" Richard was also a little anxious, he still stubbornly believed that the reason why this old man was angry was because they trespassed on his residence, and this matter was their fault in the first place, but White attacked the other party again without saying a word.
Anyone in this situation will be angry.
Well, it's just a very ordinary reaction of an ordinary old man.
Richard trotted over to the two entangled, hoping to resolve the misunderstanding peacefully. "Don't think!" the old man glanced at Richard's movements, smiled and raised his right index finger, and the slime that Richard had just broken free suddenly came to life again, and they were as flexible as a stumbling block in Richard's path.
"Richard, this is an incredibly important mission. ”
At the moment when he lost his center of gravity, Lin Qiu's exhortation before leaving echoed in his ears again. And in front of Richard's eyes, there was also a picture of Lin Qiu and Lilith risking their lives for that great plan. Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and he knew that he was about to live up to Lin Qiu and Lilith's high hopes again.
Richard watched as the bottle of purple-black liquid in his jacket pocket made a beautiful arc in mid-air due to his fall, and he could also see the smile on the old man's face.
A second later, he felt his head make close contact with the floor, and the sound of a bottle shattering was heard not far away.
"Hey, how the hell did you do that?...... What's in this bottle?"
White's surprise was beyond words, the old man was like an unbeatable Xiaoqiang in his eyes, he was kicked so many times by the knight of the silver emblem and did not react, but when this mysterious potion flew to his face, he grabbed his calf and suddenly let go. The old man even kept a sinister smile as the glass shattered to the ground, and purple liquid trickled down his face.
Passed out.
He tentatively kicked the old man, who did not react in the slightest.
"White ......" Richard's teeth chattered a little, he almost broke his teeth just now, but what made him even more weak was that the potion he had finally obtained from Ravenhall was wasted on an ordinary old man. He felt that he had no shame to see Lin Qiu and Lilith again, and if they came back in a while, they found the old man lying on the ground and didn't know what to think—"Otherwise, let's slip away first." ”
Strong and upright, Prince Richard first had the idea of running away.
"Good idea!" Richard's opinion was highly agreed with by White, he didn't want to care about where the other two people who were traveling with Richard ran away, now he just wanted to return to the mansion in the royal capital and calm down for a while under the service of the maids: "For the sake of you saving Young Master Ben, I make an exception to allow you to come to our family to avoid the limelight." ”
So in the night, two young people who had obviously made great contributions to the kingdom of Tarun sneaked out of Mountain Road Town like thieves.
......
At the other end, a manor in the inner city.
The warm steam rose in the cabin, but there was only one person in the huge room, his whole body soaked in hot water, and half of his head above the water looked at the roof in a daze. After a while, there was the sound of footsteps outside the house.
Salfin sighed in resignation, and he had been soaking comfortably for less than ten minutes.
The footsteps stopped at the window, and Salfin said without looking back, "You didn't come at the right time. ”
"I don't mind. A woman's chuckle sounded outside the window: "You should have guessed that I would come to you...... How, who is the person who attacked you?"
Salfin did guess, but he didn't expect the other party to come so quickly. The four captains of the royal capital have their own duties, and Queen Riah's advanced ideas have made this kingdom not collapse due to King Ryan's death, but glow with the glory that King Ryan did not have during his reign.
The people outside the window are at the same level as him, but they are responsible for the darkest work in the entire royal capital - espionage and assassination. He didn't even bother to look back, he didn't even have to think about it to know that the woman outside the window must have been disguised as a maid from the manor. Being able to disguise himself as anyone and fully blend into the character is an unparalleled talent and a natural assassin.
"At least wait until I'm done bathing, I've been fighting a bunch of weird old men all night. ”
The woman outside the window raised her eyebrows: "Oh?
"No need, the origin is unknown, and the preliminary judgment should be the same group of people who sent the ultimatum. ”
"I trust your judgment. ”
The woman outside the window turned to leave, and this information was enough for her and Empress Ria to explain the seriousness of the matter.
"That's right, Coria. After the sound of footsteps, Salfin suddenly stopped the other party: "I have met a man who His Majesty has been thinking about for a long time to-day—at this strange time. ”
