190. The pursuit in the night

"Madame, is there anything wrong with you?" a dull voice reached Helena's ears through the wooden planks on the roof of the car, and it was only then that she realized that her slapping of the carriage had attracted the attention of the guards on the roof. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"What's wrong with me!" Helena laughed to herself and shouted into the roof of the car, "I'm fine." Keep moving. ”

The guards on the roof of the car were silent. The guards were very self-aware, and they knew that although the beautiful woman in the car looked delicate, she was actually a legendary powerhouse who had been famous for more than ten years. The existence of himself and others is just to deal with situations that some legendary powerhouses disdain to deal with.

What's more, the guards never thought anything would happen. These seven alchemy carriages, which travel in a row, are prominently painted with the coat of arms of the Duke of Pervas, indicating that they belonged to the great family of Pervas and were directly subordinate to the Duke. In the eyes of the guards, there is no problem in Coronia that the Pervas family cannot solve, let alone the bold enough to dare to fight their ideas.

Helena didn't care what the guards thought. She knew that these guards were all good-looking, although the average level was over level ten, and the equipment was even more armed to the teeth. But the real elite of the Pervas family is not them. The true elite of the Pervas family has been invested in the development of several private planes. As far as she knew, in one of the planes, the development was not going well. Although she didn't know the specific situation, she was still deeply touched by the changes around her.

For her, the daughter-in-law of the heir who gave birth to the legendary bloodline for the family, the old duke attaches great importance to her. Even though she knew that she was also a legendary powerhouse, she still assigned two legendary powerhouses that she had never heard of to be responsible for security around her.

This began to change three years ago. First, a legend was transferred, supposedly to participate in the development of a new dimension. Then half a year ago, the last legendary powerhouse was also transferred, or to participate in the development of a new plane.

Helena is not a fool, of course she knows that the development of the savage plane actually does not require a few legendary powerhouses. However, as far as she knew, in the past three or five years, the entire family had successively sent fifteen more legendary powerhouses to fight in that new plane.

There can only be one reason for this situation, and that is that in the new plane, the family has discovered extremely precious products, and it is not a savage plane at all, but a powerful fighting race.

Her husband, Olael, was always considered to practice behind closed doors at home, just like most of the mages of the Dead House. But she knew that just three years ago, Orael had set out for a new plane, and had never returned. In the correspondence between husband and wife, she was able to feel her husband's exhaustion. If it weren't for the fact that the child was still young, she estimated that she would have been unable to bear the loneliness of being alone in the empty room and went to the new plane to meet her husband.

Thinking of the child, Helena finally smiled a little. This is a gem between her and Olael, a well-deserved darling of the heavens. Her sons and daughters, although they are still young, have already shown their demeanor early, and they are advancing quickly on the road of the Arcane Knights.

Thinking of this, she picked up the intercom and ordered the driver who was isolated in front of the vehicle: "Hurry up, I want to get home early." ”

It was about eleven o'clock in the evening. For most of Colombo's citizens, it's a time to go to sleep. But for many of the nightlife-rich aristocracy, it was just the beginning of a fun night.

Seven horse-drawn carriages are running in a row on the streets of Colombo, and occasionally other vehicles will actively slow down and avoid these seven carriages. Because their bodies have family coats of arms that can be seen at night and are painted with magic paints. It was the coat of arms of the Duke of Pervas.

Soon, the carriages left the street and turned into an old alley. Then after a while, two blurred figures appeared at the mouth of the alley.

"Are you sure that's it?" said Mora Gault, nervous and excited, and though he tried to keep his voice down, it sounded like a shout to Easter.

Luckily, however, there was apparently no one in the alley who had similar hearing to Easter, so no one was able to spot the two uninvited guests.

"Absolutely. Esther snorted. "The smell on the woman's body lingered for a long time. Enough for me to catch her. ”

"That's good. Mora Gault didn't care about anything else, but after receiving an affirmative reply from Easter, he took the lead and walked down the alley.

It's an alley, but that's compared to the main street in Colombo.

The alley was clearly privately developed, and the purpose must have been to get away from the hustle and bustle of the street. The road in the middle of the alley is about five meters wide and is flanked by very dense hedges. Through the gaps in the hedges, the black outlines of the buildings behind can be seen.

Unlike the main streets, which were brightly lit by street lamps, the pioneers of the alleys obviously did not want anyone to enter them uninvited, so not only did they not set up lighting facilities, but they also dug a trench in the center of the alley and installed a revolving suspension bridge.

When the Easters came to the trench, which was four meters wide and three meters deep, the drawbridge had naturally been retracted. Esther could see a fat man in the pendant controlling the drawbridge, sleeping on the console.

This kind of facility may be useful against petty thieves and loitering people, but it is completely useless against Easter. He didn't even have to jump over, but directly took out the universal cedar wood, turned it into a long ladder, set it up on top of the trench, and walked over it casually.

By the time Mora Gault came over, Esther had already easily dealt with the fat man. The way to do this was to pour him a whole bottle of bomb wine (the strongest liquor available in Colombo), then punch him and knock him unconscious. As tropical dwellers, the Coronians are generally not very good at drinking spirits. Easter believed that even tomorrow morning, the fat man would not wake up.

"Wouldn't it be easier to kill him!" Mora Gaud was so murderous that he could almost be seen with the naked eye.

"It's just a servant, let's try not to hurt the innocent. Don't worry, I won't be soft when I really fight. ”

Following the faint scent in the air, Esther and Mora Gault came to the end of the alley. A five-metre-high wall separates the inside and the outside, and the only passage is a tall, heavy gate carved with various creatures in ancient shapes.

"There's magic protection. Mora Gott squinted his eyes, like a lioness on a hunt, and whispered to Easter.

"And the guards. East added. He could already hear the sound of breathing coming from behind the door. At the end of this alley, all the hustle and bustle of Colombo is thrown away, and the silence is incredible.

Esther could even hear the guards talking to each other in whispers.

"What to do?" Mora Gault looked at Esther with her big watery eyes, as if trying to get him an idea.

Esther pulled her back a few steps, making sure that the guards behind the door wouldn't hear their conversation.

"I'll go in first. The magical protection here is for humans. They can't stop me. You wait for me to pack up the guards, and then remove the magic protection at the door and come in yourself. ”

Then, quietly turning into a gecko, Easter chose a position next to the gate and climbed up the tall wall with ease.

Maybe it's because of overconfidence in its own strength, confident that no one dares to make trouble here in Coronia, or maybe it's because of the long period of peace and prosperity in Coronia itself that people don't have much vigilance. In short, Esther found that there was no broken glass at the top of the wall, and there were no fierce little hunter lizards hiding in the shadows of the grass and trees under the walls.

East looked up and saw a straight path leading from the gate, inward, through an open meadow, and hiding behind a wood. The lights in some of the buildings peek out from the gaps in the trees, and there is still the reflection of the water on the other side, and there seems to be a body of water.

"What a luxury! There's such a big estate in Colombo. Esther found that this was far more than a house he thought it would be, but a vast estate. Thinking about the Cologne family's move to use the mountain as a city, Esther felt that there was a fire burning more and more in his heart.

He jumped off the wall and landed lifeless to the ground.

The two guards were chatting very close to him. As guardsmen, although they did not doze off while on duty, they were also clearly incompetent to chat with each other.

One of the tall guards faced Easter, leaning against the gate, holding a lantern in his hand. This is also the only light source at the gate. Obviously, because it was getting late, all kinds of light sources here had been artificially extinguished.

The other guard sat on the ground with his back to Easter, trying to make himself as comfortable as possible. Although it was late at night, Coronia was still close to 30 degrees Celsius due to the hot winds blowing from the interior. Both guards were wearing full armor, and if the armor didn't have cooling magic attached to it, Esther would bet to eat them. The guard's weapon is a long sword. The style of the longsword, Esther, is familiar and seems to be the best of the weapons sold in bulk in Colombo's largest weapons store. This reminded him that the weapons shop seemed to be the property of the Pervas family.

"Hey, stick boy John, did you hear that? Our captain has a new look. He has taken a lot of good things from the kitchen in the past few days, and it seems that the next time he takes a vacation, he will go to the Seven Colors Street to pay tribute. There was a lewd air in the tone of the tall guard, and it was obvious that he had no respect for his captain.

"Bigg, you. Only do you know? I also know that the captain's new good friend is a red card for Seven Colours. If it weren't for the captain wearing the sign of the captain of the Pervas family's guard, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been killed. "The guards sitting on the ground are more informed than the tall ones.

"Bigg, don't talk nonsense everywhere, let the captain hear, and it will be miserable to arrange patrols again. ”

"Haha, you were scared as soon as you said it! The captain is not here, what kind of eyes are you?"

John the Stick Boy saw the look of fear in Bigg's eyes and stared closely behind him. At first, he thought that the other party was scaring him, but the next second, a long whip wrapped around Bigg's neck, and Papa John's himself felt a powerful arm stuck in his throat.
