Chapter 435: The White-Haired Guard

"Hmph, it's still early, Lui Fiz 61 Lan, it's not enough to work hard in other places, if you can't get into the study...... But it doesn't make sense. Maxelle beckoned a few guards to come in and ordered: "Strengthen the vigilance of the study, let no one go, and notify me immediately if you catch a suspicious person!"

"Yes, Mistress Maxelle!"

As the guards left, Maxelle's eyes fell on the small screen again, and only one of the more than thirty traps was triggered, and the surveillance system of the King's City would be restored at four o'clock in the morning, which meant that Merlot still had four hours to break through all the traps here.

"Mistress Maxelle, what am I going to do now?" said Eramotte's voice over the intercom again.

Only then did Maxelle remember the call with Eramotte, and hurriedly adjusted her mood and invested in the next plan: "They shouldn't go too far, the trap was triggered just now, you look for it in a nearby room, and I'll leave the rest to the others." ”

Eramoth cut off the call and began searching nearby rooms as Maxelle had ordered.

"Does Mistress Maxelle already have to use two of you...... What kind of guy can push you to this point?"

"Less nonsense! Take this and follow this route for me to find them. Maxelle handed the intercom and a blank piece of paper with a plan of the villa to the white-haired guard, and he grinned and glanced at the route on the map, tossing it back onto Maxelle's desk.

"I don't need anything like that, then, I'm going. The white-haired guard put his hands in his trouser pockets and slowly walked to the door, "Now, Lord Maxelle, I can kill those guys, right?"

"No, I can't. ”

"Hmph, boring. ”

Maxelle held back her anger and smashed a dent in the table in front of her with her fist the moment the white-haired guard brought her to the door.

There was a muffled sound behind him, and the white-haired guard smiled lightly and slid down the stairs quickly: "I won't listen to you, Maxelle, it's my time, hehehe......"

"Lord Maxelle, there are no intruders in these rooms, what should I do next?" Eramotte, who had searched dozens of rooms, couldn't see where Merlot's trace was, so he silently connected to Maxelle.

"I've already sent that guy down to help you, it looks like Louifez still has an impression of this villa, in that case......" Maxelle picked up the blueprint that the white-haired squire had thrown on the table, looked at it for a while, and then looked at it as she fell into a hallway in front of the trigger trap, "...... Museum, you should be able to find their traces there. ”

"Yes, Mistress Maxelle!"

Coming to the place indicated by Maxelle, Eramotte found a trace of residual heat here, it looks like they had been here before, but the road led to the small museum in the villa, and a trap had been set in the hallway here, which had not yet been triggered.

"Is this really it......" Eramoth turned on the light switch in the hallway, and at that moment, the trap in front of him suddenly burst into flames!"I remember this is an explosion trap, not good!"

"Eramotte, get out of there!" Mystale shouted over the intercom, but it was too late to dodge the debris that had been splashed by the explosion.

"Boom-boom-boom......"

"What ......" Maxelle looked at the small screen in disbelief, except for the trap where Eramoth was located, which exploded, the other seven or eight screen explosion traps were all triggered for no reason!

"Hmph, have the fools stepped on the trap?" the white-haired guard strolled down the hallway, his expression calm, as if he had completely seen through the location of Merlo and Xinghan, "Next, you can't follow Maxdale's route anymore." The guy who can make that Misselle miss, hmph, things are starting to develop in interesting directions~"

At the same time, in another corner of the villa, the sound of an explosion echoed throughout the villa, and Merlo and Xinghan naturally did not miss the slight vibration caused by this sound.

"Mr. Xinghan, the battle was successful, the explosion trap will blow up the monitor as well, and the guards sent by Maxelle should have been affected by the explosion. Merlo glanced at the sky from the window of her room, and it was still as cloudy as when she came in, and she always felt that something bad was going to happen.

"Well done, Merlo, you can find such hidden traps. Xinghan pushed open the door and observed the situation outside the door, if Merlot's guess was correct, Maxelle must have sent a new guard to take over the task of the guard just now.

"The magic arrangement is too obvious, and the mechanical sound of the trigger mechanism is a little too loud that it's easy to hear where the trap is. As a result, the only one who threatens us is Maxelle's guards, and I don't know what kind of person they are. Merlo breathed a sigh of relief as she manipulated dozens of traps, and Daisy had only a fraction of the potion left for herself, hoping that she wouldn't encounter any other traps in the future.

"What's the use of that potion?" She had been looking at the potion bottle in Merlo's hand since the beginning, and she had to drip some into the cracks in the floor farther away every time she came to a trap, I am afraid that this is the real murderer who detonated those magic tricks.

Merlo shook the transparent potion at the window and said, "This is a potion made by Sister Daisy that can speed up the evaporation of any energy, drip those in the cracks of the floor, so that they will not be seen by the monitors, and can allow these transparent potions to seep through the cracks into the trap." If the magic type encounters this kind of thing, it will completely collapse in about a few tens of seconds, and the trap that loses the magic support will also fail and explode automatically. ”

"Is that why you measured the distance between the crack in the floor and the trap?" Xinghan recalled Merlot's actions, not only did she drip potions on each trap, but she also carefully measured the distance between them, presumably with the intention of triggering these traps that were also explosive at the same time, "Well, so many traps were eliminated at once, and it was true." ”

"No, Mr. Hoshihan. Merlo shook her head suddenly, "It's not as simple as letting those traps detonate at the same time to eliminate them, if there are explosions in different places, then Maxelle will be suspicious, not only of our location, but also of the number of intruders." ”

Xinghan didn't expect these consequences at all, if the person who was monitoring this villa was not Maxelle but him, I am afraid that he would have been impatient to rush down from the upper floor to personally hunt down those intruders.

"Alright, it's almost time, Mr. Xinghan, let's go out. Merlo glanced at the time on her wrist, it had been a full ten minutes since she had hidden in this room, and Maxelle's new guards had almost arrived at the place, and all they had to do was leave while the guards had just entered the room to search.

"The next step is to go straight to the study, right?" According to the previous plan, everything was under Merlot's control, but he also knew in his heart that the study was probably the most heavily guarded place, let alone entering it, it might be difficult to even get close to the staircase.

Follow Merlo all the way to the staircase leading to the second floor, the first floor is completely out of danger, and the guard who was left behind should not chase after him for a while.

"There are about four or five people, and the inside of the study is not clear for the time being, and if there is any movement outside, the people inside will immediately rush out. Xing Han used auditory perspective to observe the situation at the door of the study, which should be closed, with no signs of air flowing from there, but this amount is indeed a bit tricky without magic.

"They have to be dealt with in a split second, or they're in trouble. Merlo bit her nails and thought about what to do, it stands to reason that the guards there would be spotted as she went up the stairs, so it would be impossible to kill them in an instant.

Xing Han felt out the thin steel wire in his pocket, and did not rule out the situation that there was glass in the corridor, after all, Maxelle knew Lan's weakness, and would definitely try her best to stop her actions: "Try it, if you stay here, the people behind will catch up." ”

Merlo really doesn't have any good ideas, it's worth agreeing with Xinghan's method and trying to gamble on luck.

Xing Han wrapped the steel wire around his wrist one by one, and at the same time took out the dagger tied to his waist, although it was just an ordinary dagger on the market, it could still take people's lives.

"Whew-"

As you approach the stairs step by step, the sound of the enemy's breathing is getting closer and closer, and it is really unrealistic to try to take out more than four opponents at once. With the location of the enemy gradually constructed in his mind, Hoshihan clenched his dagger and used the thin steel wire in his hand to quickly catapult out from the corner into the depths of the corridor!

"Click!" the wire hooked to the wall, and it seemed lucky that there was nothing like glass in the hallway this time.

In this way, Xing Han's heart was even more confident, and before the first two guards could react to what was happening, they were already slashed by sharp daggers around their necks, and they all fell to their knees. But this is far from the end, the guards standing in the middle have already sensed the existence of Xing Han, and slashed forward with the long sword in their hands!

"Ding!"

The dagger successfully blocked one of the swords, but at this time, another guard grabbed the gap and slashed Xing Han's right forearm with the blade, the pain hit, stimulating the power of his left hand, and after the counterattack was successful, he immediately stabbed the dagger into the opponent's heart, and at this time, the steel wire embedded in the wall was also retracted, tightly wrapped around the right wrist of the fourth guard, and the dagger cooperated with the steel wire to take his life in an instant!

"Is there another one?!" Only then did Xing Han realize that there was a fifth guard hidden at the end of the corridor, and the wire in his hand was so broken that he couldn't use the next teleport to him and kill him!

In an instant, a flash of inspiration flashed in Xing Han's mind, and the muscles of his left arm tensed and threw the dagger in his hand precisely at the guard's throat!

"Uhhh

Blood splattered, and Xing Han panted as he watched as the fifth guard slowly fell backwards. Although the process of killing these people was a bit difficult, if it was Lan, it would definitely not take that long, and it would not even be possible to give them time to react before the assassination would be over.

"Mr. Xinghan, are you alright?" asked Mei Luo as she ran out of the staircase, looking at the wound on Xinghan's right arm.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a skin injury. Xinghan pulled his dagger from the guard's corpse and inserted it back into his waist, and at that moment, an ominous aura came over his faceβ€”at the far corner of the hallway, and at the dimest point of the light, a white-haired guard was looking at Xinghan and Merlo gloomily!
