Ignoring the manor guards, the knights of the supporting squadron smashed the two guards with their sword butts before forcing their way into Grenfell Manor.

Lady Grenfell was pale with anger, and could barely stand still with the support of the butler and the maid, and a group of guards in the manor were pushed away by the knights of the guard camp, and a burly chief of the guard stood up from behind Mrs. Grenfell, rushed directly to the knights of the guard camp, and knocked the knight in metal armor like a bull.

The two squadron leaders in the guard battalion immediately pulled out the crimson long swords at their waists and ran towards the guards in the manor, and the knights outside the manor drew their longbows one after another, and the arrows were aimed at the guards in the manor, just waiting for Captain Sauron to give an order, so as to shoot these guards who dared to resist one after another.

"Enough! Edgar, you stand down! ”

Mrs. Grenfell shouted at the guard:

"Stop letting innocent people bleed."

When the captain of the guard heard Mrs. Grenfell's order, he immediately stopped, threw his short stick on the ground, and spread his hands out.

The knights of the guard battalion, who had been knocked to the ground, got up from the ground in resentment, and one of them skillfully pulled a rope from his bosom, and several of them rushed up in unison, and tied up the chief of the guard named Edgar in a strong knot.

Captain Sauron waved his hand, telling the knights gathered outside the manor to put away their alloy bows, and when the danger was lifted, some of the manor guards came out of the bush, and they raised their hands to show that they would not put up any resistance. On the contrary, the strong captain of the guard, who was still a little dishonest even if he was tied with ropes, was knocked to the ground with maces by four knights of the guard battalion, and his forehead and left arm were smashed to pieces by the maces.

Karl apologized to Mrs. Grenfell when he came to her, and then waved his hand to his knights, and the knights in the supporting squadron walked into Grenfell Manor and searched for her.

Since the knights of the support squadron have been guarding outside Grenfell Manor for nearly a month, the most talked about is speculation about the use of many buildings in the manor, and now that there is a chance to reveal the answer, the knights of these support squadrons can't wait to run over and check out those buildings.

This group of children in Grenfell Manor is very sensible? They shivered in the cold wind? His face turned blue, but he still didn't say a word.

Angry, Mrs. Grenfell was helped by the butler and the maid to the hall on the first floor of the villa to rest? Eleven aristocratic children followed behind Mrs. Grenfell with a blank expression? Walking into the hall and standing behind Mrs. Grenfell like a wooden sculpture? There was neither anger nor sadness on their faces? It's like someone has cast a silence spell.

Mrs. Grenfell also showed no concern for this group of children? On the contrary, his eyes frequently fell on the head of the guard who was covered in bruises.

Surdak noticed that her hands were clenched into fists, her long nails sunk into her palms, and some of her fingernails had turned red.

Carl went straight to the kitchen of the manor house and found the entrance to a basement? A group of knights with swords and shields around the door? Karl commanded the pale-faced butler, "Open this basement." ”

The butler did not dare to disobey Carl's order, and without saying a word, he took out a bunch of copper keys from his waist and opened the large wooden door of the basement, revealing the swarthy corridor passage from the doorway, and Carl glanced at the knights beside him? A knight first threw a torch into it, and the flickering torch was thrown into the basement? There was a clear sound of landing.

The basement was quiet, and a bold knight with a shield in his hands? Brave enough to walk in through the door, and in a short time? The knight's voice came from inside the basement: "My lord? There was nothing in it. ”

Carl's expression changed slightly? He glanced at Surdak before leading the group into the basement.

The basement of Grenfell Manor was unexpectedly empty, in the huge basement, not only was there not a single shadow of a robber, but there were not even any sundries and supplies, the stone floor was cleaned, and you could even hear the echo when walking in the basement.

In this basement, Carl could not find any traces of occupancy, he walked up from the basement without saying a word, and the knight captains of the other squads came over one after another, beside Carl, Carl asked, "How about the storage room, the water dungeon, the stables, and the beast pen?" ”

"Nothing was found." Several of the knights replied one after another.

The search warrant issued by the Council of Highlandsa is based on the clue that the Grenfell Manor is hiding the bandits, if this gang of robbers cannot be found in the manor, then not only Carl will be in big trouble, but even the guard battalion will become extremely passive, this search operation is an application made by Carl, and a lot of strong evidence is also issued by Carl, originally everyone was just waiting to rush into the manor and pull these robbers out of the basement.

But now it seems that things are not so simple.

Carl looked at the knights, and even Jasper's face was very ugly at the moment, and Carl said in a deep voice: "Follow me to the castle upstairs to have a look." ”

The knights of the guard battalion wanted to search the castle upstairs, and drove a group of maids and servants in the castle into the hall on the first floor. There is no callus on the inside of the leg that has been worn out by riding a horse for a long time, and it is impossible for a robber to hide and change his identity.

Viscount Sauron sat in the hall of the Champion Castle with a golden sword, and the atmosphere in the hall was freezing cold.

Mrs. Grenfell stared coldly at the knights of the guard battalion in the hall without saying a word, and the eleven children behind her simply lowered their heads, and a row of maids and a row of servants including cooks, gardeners, grooms, and gardeners separated from the left and right sides, and not long after, the knights of the supporting squadron ran down from the stairs and said to Karl:

"Squadron Leader Carl, no suspicious robbers were found upstairs!"

Karl frowned slightly, Grenfell Manor had been searched inside and out, and he didn't even see the shadow of a robber, probably all the knights of the supporting squadron were full of question marks in their hearts: 'How can this be?' ’

At this moment, Madame Grenfell, who had been sitting in the hall of the castle, raised her head suddenly, with a hint of cunning in her eyes, and a look of great resentment on her face, and screamed at Captain Sauron: "I will go to Archon Christie to complain about your atrocities, and I will definitely sue you bastards." ”

Captain Sauron raised his head and glanced disdainfully at Lady Grenfell, then stared at Karl sternly. He commanded him, "Since there is no turning back, Carl, what are you still standing here?" Search me carefully again, and dig three feet into the ground today to find out this group of robbers......"

"Yes, Captain Sauron!" Karl made a knightly salute and immediately strode out of the castle hall.

Surdak followed Karl's side, turned around and walked outside with Karl, at this time, Mrs. Grenfell was staring at the magic belt on Surdak's waist, and the hatred in Surdak's eyes was difficult to hide at the moment Surdak turned around.

Surdak seemed to notice a stop, and he looked back at Mrs. Grenfell, and saw that she was sitting upright on the couch, looking straight ahead, as if she had not moved at all.

……

Carl and the ten captains of the support squadron went outside the castle and searched the buildings around the castle again, and the robbers seemed to have never been in the manor at all.

At this time, everyone realized the seriousness of the matter, and the expressions on their faces were not very good-looking, and they all spoke to their subordinates with a strong smell of gunpowder.

Karl sat on the stone platform by the pool in the manor square, patted his forehead vigorously, and said to everyone: "Maybe I'm not quite right in our thinking, after all, there are so many robbers, it is impossible to disappear out of thin air." ”

In the past month, Jasper has been staring at Greenfell Manor for most of the month, and several strong pieces of evidence are provided by him.

At this time, he also knew what kind of serious consequences would await them if he couldn't find out these robbers, and his face became more and more gloomy.

"Is there a detailed delivery list from Grenfell Manor?" Surdak asked suddenly.

"With me!"

One of the captains quickly took out a parchment book from his bosom and handed it to Surdak.

Surdak carefully flipped through the parchment book, and when he first began to monitor Grenfell Manor, the data on the parchment book had hardly changed, but it gradually decreased later. Surdak frowned and said, "I think we overlooked a problem, the demand for food at Grenfell Manor seems to have been decreasing recently, and it seems that there has been no more supplies to the castle in the past few days, so those robbers should be gradually diverted." ”

Hearing Surdak say this, several squad leaders in the support squadron had some unbearable faces and hurriedly patted their chests. "Our people have been staring at this place, and unless we chop them into pieces, they won't be able to escape from our sight......"

Karl's eyes suddenly widened at this time, as if he remembered something, he waved his hand, and said to the team leaders around him: "Wait, chop it into pieces, maybe the answer is here, this group of robbers is probably dead." ”

“…… And it was chopped into pieces of meat, just now I thought how could there be so many blood stains on the meat case in the kitchen storage room, it was like a slaughterhouse, all the meat in Grenfell Manor was supplied from the outside farm, and there was no need to slaughter it on the spot, so so many blood stains were probably those robbers, we should go there again. Jasper continued.

Karl said to a squad leader, "Go and bring two hounds in from outside the manor, maybe they'll tell us the answer." ”

A group of knights of the support squadron hurried in from outside the hall with two hounds, and walked straight to the kitchen at the back of the castle.

When he searched just now, Surdak didn't run to the kitchen, but just stood at the basement entrance outside the kitchen for a while, and at this time, he had already found something wrong after entering the kitchen, because the kitchen of the castle was actually filled with the smell of human blood, this familiar taste Surdak had experienced on the battlefield in Moyunling, and those not good memories made him extremely deep.

He blocked his uncomfortable nose with the back of his hand, and walked into the bloodstained storage room, only to see a row of pork hanging on the meat hook on the storage shelf, and some pork and beef on the meat table next to it, the floor of the meat table and the storage room was covered with blood, and even the surrounding walls were splashed with blood, apparently the knights thought that these blood stains belonged to these slaughtered animals.

After sneezing violently, Surdak immediately withdrew from the storage room and whispered in Karl's ear, "It's human blood......"

The two slender-waisted hounds entered the locker, sniffed around, and then led the knight with the dog to the other side of the wooden door, which had just been checked, and it seemed to be a firewood room, and the room was full of firewood, and the two hounds barked wildly at the inside of the woody room.

Karl and the knights looked at each other, and immediately one of the knights escorted the frightened cooks and servants into the firewood room, and ordered them: "Move this firewood away......

Under the persecution of the sword, the firewood in the firewood room was quickly cleared, and in the room that was originally full of firewood, there were still many bloody footprints that had not had time to be cleaned up, and there was a black iron door on one side of the wall, and the blood stains on the iron door had almost completely dried up, and when those cooks saw the big iron door again, their bodies were like mud and slumped, no matter how urged by the knights of the guard battalion, they were unwilling to take a step closer to the door.

For the sake of caution, Karl did not open the gate without permission, but let his knights guard it, he walked directly to the castle hall, stood in front of Captain Sauron, and said, "Captain Sauron, we have found a secret passage in the firewood room behind the kitchen, this secret passage is a little wrong, I want to ask ......"

Before Carl could finish speaking, Grenfell, who was originally a little pale, instantly became bloodless, her eyes were round, and her blue eyes quickly turned black, she suddenly got up from the sofa, and quickly unfolded a magic scroll in her hand, and a brief spell activated the scroll, and a huge magic pattern circle emerged from the scroll, and the scroll instantly turned into a black aura, and then dissipated into the air.

'The Great Law of Bondage'

At this moment, everyone, including Captain Sauron, was bound by a shadow ribbon in the castle hall, and they became unable to move.

The chief of the guard also suddenly rose on the spot, broke the rope tied to his body, his body swelled to nearly three meters high, and easily twisted off the heads of the four knights who were guarding him, and then took a door-shaped shield from the wall of the castle hall, and a large number of black magic patterns instantly poured out of his body, and strode to Mrs. Grenfell's side.

Mrs. Grenfell took a wand from her bosom, and a black eye was tattooed on that arm, and a book of black magic floated in front of her, her eyes fixed on the pages, and her face grim to chant long incantations......
