Chapter 081: Lord of Lukang (3)
Time passed minute by minute, from noon, to afternoon, from afternoon, and then to evening. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Old Warren's face grew more and more gloomy.
Vega and Harold didn't come, and Matthew didn't come back, and he already had a bad feeling in his heart, but...... With the strength of Matthew Mithril's rank, how could something happen?
Don't......
Church?
Or, Black Hawk Bureau?
Will Vega and Harold be with, dare to hook up with these two forces?
Old Warrens came over, thought about it, and thought only of this one possibility, if that was the case......
"Give me the command, and close the gates. Unless Commander Matthew returns, no one is allowed to open it without permission. ”
"Prepare to fly the pigeons, I have to write to Count Silva. ”
"Biggs, get everything back to the castle and put it in place as before. ”
"The others come with me. ”
After a few successive orders, old Warren turned on his horse and headed straight for the castle.
The crowd behind was immediately in a hurry.
A grove of trees a few miles outside the city, watching the city gate slowly close, Harold frowned slightly, and glanced at the person behind him, but he didn't speak after all.
Knowing his anxious thoughts, Syd restrained the distracting thoughts in his heart and suppressed the negative emotions that surged from time to time, and said lightly: "Don't worry, a big meal is prepared over there, but we don't necessarily have to eat it, as long as old Warren doesn't go out of the city, he can't run." ”
There was one thing he didn't say.
What he wants is the whole of Lukang, killing old Warren in front of everyone, after all, it has a little impact, this impact is not in Lukang City, but on the side of the county head Ggregory, and Nantes, for those big nobles, anyway, old Warren is also a die-hard principality, and the relationship with the Silva family is also quite good.
Acting again at night, regardless of what others know or not, push everything on the Black Eagle Bureau and the church, and then push Alicia to inherit the title and take over as Lord of Deer Harbor, so, with his strength, coupled with the same firm anti-Norman and anti-church stance, even if Count Silva has an opinion, he still has to take care of the overall situation after all.
Harold nodded slightly.
The sun was setting more and more, and when the last rays of light disappeared into the sky, night fell.
In the night, Syd unhurriedly tore off the pieces of meat and stuffed them into his mouth. Harold's gaze flickered over from time to time.
Finally, as the moon began to reach the tip, Syd swallowed the last slice of meat, then stood up, green light flashing violently in his hooded eyes.
"Let's go!"
The two figures quickly walked into the darkness.
Before the Battle of the Castle, Seid had learned about the defensive arrangements of the city walls because he had to receive Harold and them into the city.
Leading Harold, he soon walked into a dark corner where the light of the fire did not shine and the bows and crossbows were scarcely arranged.
"I'll go first, and you follow. ”
Touching the walls and feeling the hardness of the black rocks, Syd suddenly curled one hand into a claw and grabbed it fiercely.
Boom!
A deep pothole. Although Black Rock is as hard as iron, it is not a real iron stone after all, and the strength of Seid's Mithril Rank is even harder than steel.
As soon as the body bounces up, the other hand also moves, and then alternates.
Bang!
The continuous bombardment sound, and in a few breaths, Said's figure was already on the top of the city wall more than ten meters high.
Behind him, Harold followed.
"Who?" "Stop!"
The movement was too loud.
On the city wall, the army that was already on nervous alert was immediately alarmed, and one by one the whistles sounded rapidly, and some of them reacted quickly enough, directly pulled out their bows and arrows, and shot at this side.
Syd shot down a few arrows, and when Harold climbed up, the two jumped straight into the city, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
"Someone! Immediately go to the castle to deliver the message, and a thief will rush directly to the city wall and sneak into the city!"
The officers of the garrison in charge of the city defense did not dare to leave their posts at will, and most importantly, they did not dare to pursue at will.
"Not here!"
Near the city gate, Said's eyes moved slightly in the dark. He and Harold rushed into the city and didn't go straight to the castle, and it would be a big joke if Warren Sr. was here and let him slip away.
Seeing that someone was going to deliver a letter in the direction of the castle, the two glanced at each other, and then followed closely and quickly followed.
After a while, the garrison messenger rushed to the bottom of the castle, and there was a rush from above.
The alarm bell in the castle rang immediately, but with great caution, the gate of the castle was never opened, and the messengers were directly ordered by the guards to continue to return to the city gate.
"Matthew is gone, and Warren's old ghost has become less daring. He also has today. Harold sneered, his eyes showing deep mockery and malice.
He panicked. Said's eyes were indifferent, and his voice was cold, "If he can make arrangements in advance, use these messengers as bait, open the castle gates, and then lead us to rush in, and then kill us with traps, then it should be normal for him." Looks like I'm overestimating him too. ”
As he spoke, Said's figure stepped into the depths of darkness. Old Warren may have panicked, but the front of the castle is the most powerful defense after all, although he has a strong physique of the Mithril level, but it is not a wise choice to force the breakthrough with those heavy ballistas. As Morton, the former security officer at the Battle of the Castle, the best way to go is to go to the side.
Harold followed.
......
The castle, in its deepest place, is a dimly lit stone chamber.
The robe was unraveled, and old Warren sat with his eyes closed, one with the darkness, solemn and gloomy aura.
On one side, Evan was also dressed in a military uniform and sat still.
Suddenly, a hurried alarm bell rang, and their eyes opened at the same moment.
"Matthew is probably gone. Old Warren showed a trace of sadness on his face, but he was suppressed in an instant, his eyes were gloomy, and he was even more crazy, "If you can kill Matthew, it can only be the church and the Black Hawk Bureau, I have already sent a letter to the Earl, Harold and Vega betrayed the principality and colluded with the Normans, and within three days, the Earl will definitely send reinforcements." All you have to do is take these things with you and hide them in the vault for three days. These twenty-one secret elixirs and three awakening elixirs must be enough for you to cultivate to the limit of Shanlan's secret arts, and then advance to the knight. The Warren family will depend on you in the future. ”
In front of old Warren, in addition to several animal skin scrolls, there was also a purple wooden box the size of two palms. In the wooden box, the Warren family made great sacrifices, and then the secret treasure in exchange for it is all here.
originally thought that with these, it would be enough to make the Warren family strong again, but who expected it......
A hint of twilight.
"Father, since the earl's reinforcements will arrive within three days, you can also avoid the edge outside. Evan gritted his teeth.
"My goal is too big, and if I don't go, they'll dig three feet into the ground and overturn the castle. Besides, I'm Lord of Lukang, if I watch the castle fall into the hands of the enemy, but I don't do anything, what face do I have to meet the ancestors?" Old Warren shook his head, his always serious face showed a little relief for the first time, "But you don't have to worry too much, it's not so easy for them to take the castle from me." ”
As he spoke, seeing Evan take a deep breath and say something more, the harmony immediately disappeared again, and his eyes sharpened: "Don't talk too much nonsense, remember, this is the last lesson I taught you, for the sake of the family, when it is time to give up, even your father you must give up." Get me into the vault now. ”
With a deep snort, and without looking at Evan again, old Warren stood up and strode out.
Behind, Evan took a long breath, gritted his teeth, and finally picked up the beast skin book and the purple wooden box, and rushed to the secret vault, which had always been only the head of the family was qualified to know.
