194. Night of the Castle 4
The reason why the young magician is called Antonio, and the reason why he will follow Surdak is completely because he is worried that after Surdak and the magical leather merchant Kit part ways, he will go to the guard camp of Ivorson City to report Kitt, as long as he says that he is hiding the fugitive who was recaptured, and the fugitive happens to be the person who the Bussman family is chasing with all their might, I believe that the magic leather merchant Kit will inevitably be invited to the guard camp for tea.
So after Surdak left, the young magician followed him all the way from the hotel in the center of Ivorson City, followed Surdak to the rich villa area, and saw Surdak tie up the young nobleman and torture the whereabouts of his companions, and heard the young nobleman say that the person Surdak was looking for was hiding in the castle of the Bussman family, only to find that the two people who had never known each other actually had the same goal in some things.
So the magician Antonio decided to take the initiative to sit down with Surdak and talk, maybe the two could help each other in infiltrating the castle of the Bussman family.
Antonio frankly stated his purpose for entering the city this time, which is nothing more than to involve some bullying of men and women in the Bussman family, and the young magician turned into a messenger of justice and wanted to assassinate Josie. Earl Busman, although Earl Josie has never been valued by Duke Ryan, and is over sixty years old, but as Ryan. The second son of Duke Bussman, who himself lived in the castle of the Bussman family. Count Bussman rarely goes out, and it is quite difficult for Antonio to assassinate this Count Josie.
Although the young magician had done a lot of preparation before making the move, he also met a once-in-a-lifetime Josie. Bussman had the opportunity to go out, but the young magician had miscalculated the power of the bursting flames, or rather, Antonio had not expected that the carriages of the Bussman family were equipped with magical shields.
Most of the power of the burst flames was blocked by the defensive shields on the magic caravan, so it didn't hurt Count Josie in the slightest, and the unwilling young magician Antonio was ready to look for another opportunity to infiltrate the castle of the Bussman family to see if there was a chance to kill him secretly.
It was only on the way into the city that he happened to be accidentally discovered by Surdak, so he secretly miniature Surdak.
In fact, Surdak had no idea how he would infiltrate the Bussman family castle and capture Joshua and his companions from under the noses of the heavily guarded guards.
The appearance of the magician Antonio solved the biggest problem of Surdak's secret infiltration of the Bussman family's castle at once.
And Antonio has always lacked such a partner as Surdak, even if Surdak creates some artificial chaos around the castle, so that the guards in the castle are completely busy, and Antonio can fish in troubled waters and sneak into the inner garden of the castle......
Antonio even has a bird's-eye view of the castle of the Bussmann family, a detailed map entirely sketched by a young magician, and the divisions of the castle within the castle are marked in great detail.
The gray castle of the Bussman family is located on the top of the only high hill in the north of the city of Ewalson, this castle covers a huge area, the whole castle has a total of four gates, if you want to enter the castle, in addition to the members of the Bussmann family personally accompanied, there are several ways to enter the castle, the simplest of which is to enter the castle with the identity plate inside the castle, in addition, there is a large number of daily necessities in the castle, all kinds of fresh meat, poultry, eggs, vegetables, fruits and so on, Almost all of them need to be transported from the outside to the castle.
With a common topic, Surdak and Antonio quickly became familiar with each other.
Surdak agrees to Antonio's proposal, and the two help each other to sneak into the castle of the Bussman family.
……
On a wagon full of pumpkins.
Surdak and Antonio, dressed in a peasant's linen clothes, lay on the roof of the high carriage, and followed the rickety carriage into the castle of Bussmann. Count Bussman killed.
Antonio paid only three silver coins to buy the pumpkin farmer, who seemed to be quite experienced in this area, and the more he did not hide it, the less it would attract the attention of the Bussman guards, so he let the two young men lie quietly on the roof of the wagon, and then drove the carriage into the castle of Bussmann.
During this time, Antonio also received a letter from a carrier pigeon on the pumpkin cart, which was a small note tied to the pigeon's leg, Antonio unfolded the note and looked at it, and then smiled at Surdak and said:
"I inquired about Quentin. Bussmann will be entertaining the young officers returning from Warsaw tonight in the second dining room of the castle. Bussman took this banquet very seriously, and this group of young officers would probably become a group of Quentin Bussman's cronies, and they would follow Quentin Bussman after they lived in the castle for about half a month. Bussman returns to the battlefield in the Warsaw plane. ”
Surdak didn't expect that the young magician still had an internal response in Bussman Castle.
Nor did he see how Antonio had informed the castle to investigate Joshua and the young officers who had been following him, but this letter was the best proof of this.
Surdak turned his head and took the narrow slip of paper, which was densely packed with small needle-shaped holes, and he couldn't read what was written on it.
Surdak was not stupid enough to ask Antonio who the castle was, and he said to Antonio:
"It is said that this group of young officers must have broken with Duke Newman completely, and they left the Bednar Regiment en masse and joined the Ivorson Ground Bessmann Regiment, although this kind of thing is not uncommon among the nobility, but Quentin. Isn't Bussman so blatantly worried about Duke Newman's wrath? ”
Surdak couldn't figure out this kind of thing, but the magician Antonio's vision was much higher than Surdak's, and he looked at the problem from different angles, and Antonio obviously had a deeper understanding of the Warsaw plane, saying:
"I heard that the situation in the Warsaw plane has basically stabilized.
This time, the Prince of Wales and the Royal Constructed Knights opened up a very good situation in the Warsaw plane, as long as the Bussman Legion pursued the victory, they could regain most of the lost territory in the Warsaw plane.
In this way, when Duke Ryan invited Duke Newman's Bednar Army to enter the Warsaw plane, the effect was pitiful.
But now that the Bednar Legion occupies the fertile County of Handanaar, the Bussman family is now even eager for Duke Newman's Bednar Legion to leave immediately and reclaim all the land on the Warsaw Plane for themselves.
You said that in this case, the Bussman family recruited young talents who took the initiative to take refuge, do you still have to look at Duke Newman's face? ”
Hearing Antonio say this, Surdak knew that these young nobles were on the opposite side of Duke Newman.
"These young aristocratic officers were killed by Quentin. Bussman was arranged in the VIP building, this area was the most lax place for the Bussman family, and it was not difficult to sneak in, but it was not easy to sneak out of the two dozen young nobles without knowing it. ”
Antonio frowned and said to Surdak.
At this time, the magic caravan passed through the high gate of the castle, and the guards on the watchtower carried alloy bows, supporting the battlements of the city wall with their hands, looking down curiously, when they saw Surdak and Antonio, Surdak was a little nervous inside, but he still lay lazily on the pumpkin cart, although his body seemed to be relaxed, it was actually tense, like a pressed spring, as long as there was any abnormal movement, he would leave and bounce high.
Looking at the magician Antonio next to him, he was much calmer, and he even stretched out his hand and waved his hand at the guards on the city wall.
Surdak looked at the farmer who was driving the carriage, but he didn't care, he didn't pay attention to the guards at all, and drove the carriage directly into the castle.
Before the farmer's carriage drove into the galley, Antonio skilfully jumped out of the carriage and led Surdak through several alleys in the castle.
"Speaking of which...... Those young aristocratic officers of yours have something to do with me, too! ”
After saying this, he suddenly stopped, pulled Surdak into the corner, and a few seconds later, the footsteps of a group of castle guards came from a distance, and after a while, it gradually became smaller and smaller, until it disappeared.
Antonio walked out with confidence on his face, and Surdak followed behind him and asked:
"Do you want to deal with them too?"
He was referring to those young aristocratic officers.
Antonio waved his hand and said with a playful smile:
"No, no, no, it's just that the information I received happened to involve them again, and these young nobles are really not at ease!"
"What's wrong with them?" Surdak asked curiously.
As he spoke, Antonio walked into the middle of nowhere, walking around the castle again, even if he met one or two people occasionally, as long as he didn't show a flustered look, no one seemed to care if you were from the castle or not.
Antonio paused, smiled somewhat ambiguously at Surdak and said:
"Joshua. Collins seems to be a very handsome guy, and with the aura of returning from the battlefield, he brags about his heroism at the ball, and some of the ladies of the Bussman family are moved, not only the ladies of the Bussman family, but even some of the noble ladies of the side family also want to know this young talent, well, they want to do some physical communication directly, you must know that these noble ladies who live in ancient castles are very open in some aspects. ”
Surdak was a little dumbfounded, it was hard to believe that Antonio had learned so much information about Joshua after knowing himself for a long time, and what was even more strange was that Surdak couldn't find out at all, how did Antonio receive these messages, it is certain that he must not have known these messages just now, he received these messages on the way through the castle alley.
Hear Joshua. Collins actually played ambiguously with the ladies of the Bussman family and had an affair with a certain lady of the Bussman family, and Surdak couldn't help but ask:
"You mean Joshua. Collins became the fresh meat in the eyes of the Miss and Mrs. Bussman? ”
This time Antonio stopped at the mouth of an alley on the edge of the castle and said to Surdak:
"Fresh meat, that's a pretty new word."
He waited a moment before continuing on, and Surdak saw that as they entered the alley, a group of castle guards had just left across the street, and the timing was terrifyingly perfect.
Joshua. Collins continued to walk, saying as he went:
"That's right, and one of them happens to be Josie. Count Bosman's newlywed wife, this is probably the thirtieth wife he has officially married! You're afraid you can't imagine where they spent the night last night, and I can take you to see it this time. ”
He was not afraid of being heard, and quickly walked to a tower, and Antonio pushed the door and walked in without hesitation, without even thinking about whether there was anyone in the tower.
Surdak followed into the tower and couldn't help but ask, "You mean Josie. Bussman's new wife and Joshua. Collins cheating? ”
"That's right, this is really a very nice place, you can enjoy the night sky while popping, it's very emotional, but the top of the tower is a little high, and it takes some courage to climb this narrow spiral staircase without handrails in the dark." Antonio said as he closed the wooden door of the tower.
For this reason, the two men also climbed to the top of the tower, and saw a cashmere blanket on the platform of the round arrow tower, as well as a pile of worn-out ropes and a crumpled silk handkerchief, the tower seemed to have not been cleaned for a long time, and some clear footprints were left on the dusty stone floor.
The two of them were worried that they would be spotted by guards elsewhere when they stood on the tower, so they just stood on the turnstile staircase and probed, apparently it was the new wife of Earl Josie and Joshua who had stolen it. A place of love.
Surdak didn't expect that the location of the two would be chosen here.
The magician Antonio said to Surdak, "But the other young officers seem to be honest, only this Joshua is a little out of the way, as if he is attracting the attention of the upper echelons!" ”
"We'll probably have to wait here until dark......"
As it turned out, the magician Antonio had chosen a very good place, and as soon as it was dark, they waited in the tower for Lady Miranda and her maid, and then threatened the lady-in-waiting to lure Joshua here, at the risk of Lady Miranda's life.
In fact, if Antonio and Surdak don't show up, the next thing the personal maid has to do is to ask the young and handsome Joshua. Collins.
Wait until Joshua. Collins was brought in by the maids, and Surdak stood guard outside the tower's door.
And the magician Antonio wanted to try the feeling of smashing people with candlesticks, so he took the initiative to ambush Joshua, and Surdak blocked the door and mended the knife when necessary.
……
Nowadays, Joshua. Collins fainted on the stone floor of the Penthouse, and Lady Miranda and her maid were driven to the top of the tower.
Surdak had a habitual dependence on Antonio's arrangement, and couldn't help but ask him:
"What's next? How do we do it? ”
