Volume I: The End of the Outlaw 105

There will be guards on the walls of the castle at short intervals, and it is suicide to climb directly from the walls. I feel like it's a little brighter than it was just now, and if I don't hurry, it will be dawn in a while.

Just when I was at a loss, I suddenly saw a figure appear in one of the windows of the castle wall. Looking down through the window, I suddenly felt a little hope in my heart, that place was the toilet outlet.

I have the impression that there are some castles where the toilets are built in a very peculiar way. At this point, I can only hope that this toilet will be as I want it to be. But I still didn't dare to jump rashly.

I won't test how deep the moat is. And with such cold weather and such heavy clothes, it may become very troublesome if you go into the water for a while.

I searched the moat for a long time trying to find another place where I could get close to the castle walls without getting wet, but the Light did not bless me.

Seeing that there was really no way to do it, I took off my heavy clothes and gritted my teeth and jumped into the icy water. The biting cold I had not felt in a long time made me almost jump out of the water.

When I touched the wall under the toilet, the smell of cold but unfrozen water and feces was still very pungent. I held my breath, trying to find a place where I could pick my fingers.

As a guy who often climbs the wall outside to play, the houses of the commoners, including the nobles, are not so particular. There are many places to scratch on uneven walls. However, this is the king's castle, and the walls are much smoother.

Anyway, I have a pair of palm hooks in my hands, and although I don't usually need them, I'm glad I didn't bother throwing them away.

The walls underneath the toilet are as smooth as the rest of the room. But when building a toilet, there is a slight bump in each section. This little bump is enough.

I slammed my palm hook into the crack in the wall and climbed up the drain channel. I didn't expect to get through that little opening in the toilet where they squatted. As long as I can climb to the window of the toilet, I can climb in.

It's getting brighter, and it may not be more than twenty minutes before someone can see me hanging on the wall. I really wish it would rain a little harder and longer.

I was so happy when I finally grabbed the edge of the toilet window with my hand. But just after a second of joy, a head popped out of the window!

My head is buzzing! It's too late to react at the moment! The two arms were suddenly full of strength, and with a force of both hands, I pulled my body up, and I stretched out my right hand and grabbed the guy's neck. That guy is terrified! I saw his surprised eyes, but they never saw the rising sun again.

My palm hook pierced his throat directly. He instinctively shrank his body back, but when I pulled hard, his body leaned forward with my strength and lay down to the window, and I pulled again! The man came out of the window. I let go of my hand, and the man fell out of the window, and he didn't have time to make a sound, but with a "plop", he fell into the water below with a loud noise.

There is no time to think, and there is no need to look back. I don't know where I got the strength, so I lifted myself up and rolled into the toilet.

Without the slightest hesitation, I leaned my body against the door of the toilet and listened to everything that was going from outside the door. I heard the voices of the guards talking and shouting.

Not good! I'm going to have to move quickly.

This is only the outer wall of the King's Castle, and it is still some distance from the King's fortress, the castle where I stayed with the Archbishop.

I had to hurry and hurry back to my room in the shortest possible time. The more time I spend here, the more likely I am to be exposed.

Gently opening the toilet door, I floated out the door. There was no one in the hallway, but I heard footsteps. In this completely unfamiliar environment, I didn't know how to deal with what was going to happen next. I only pray that I don't meet the guards who wake up at night!

I tried to stay away from the sound of footsteps, and I had to leave everything that might happen in the future to luck. Leave it to luck that I didn't believe in! That's all I can think about at the moment.

Moving from the upper floor to the first floor, thankfully the guards were not all awakened. At night, when it was still dark, they shouldn't be able to see what was going on outside. That's the biggest help for me.

Slipping out of the defensive walls on the outside of the castle, I tried to hide myself in the shadows along the base of the wall. I longed for a little more shade, a little more shelter and obstacles, a little more flower beds and trees.

But I knew I couldn't leave footprints on muddy ground. Never! So try to choose some places with grass and hard stone slabs as a foothold. Before the guards could fully react, I slipped behind the flower bed next to the castle.

The idea of entering through the main entrance of the castle is bold, adventurous, and looking for death. But it's also the fastest way. But just as I was about to go to the main entrance, I quickly shrank back!

It's a change of guard!

After all, this is the king's fortress, not the home of those noble lords, and the guards here are not at the same level as the guards outside, but I didn't expect the guards here to change in time at night.

This means that you will not be able to enter from the main entrance!

There wasn't much time to think, and now it was all a matter of feeling, a completely instinctive reaction, and without hesitation, I pulled my hand against the castle wall and climbed up. I'd rather be a gecko now, too small to be noticeable.

The moment I climbed to the roof of the castle, I was sure that I had a 50% chance of surviving. It takes less time to sneak into the castle from the roof of the castle. There was a slight ache between my fingernails. I glanced at it, and my middle finger and index finger were bloody.

It's not a good sign, and I even suddenly think about what might happen tomorrow.

It's much better to be in the castle, and I'm sure there's almost zero chance of my footprints on the ground.

When I slipped into my room, I was still tense. Leaning against the fireplace, I stared out the window as it grew brighter. The wood burned quietly in the fireplace, but my ears were still searching for all the sounds outside the door. I'm waiting, even though that's not what I was expecting!

When I could see out the window, I stood by the window wrapped in a blanket and watched the movement on the wall, but nothing seemed to happen.

Suddenly there was a knock on my door!

I wrapped myself in a blanket and opened the door, and it was Tulayan.

"Didn't sleep well?" He took a look into my room.

"What are you looking at?"

"If you hide Jiaojiao in the golden house, I won't go in."

"Then you better not come in." I'm going to close the door.

"Just kidding!" This guy has just arrived in Gilneth and has learned badly!

"I'm not in the mood to joke with you." I dodged the door open.

"Your face feels very tired. Sleeping so badly? ”

"Hmm." I suddenly turned and walked back to the back room, and I realized that my bed was still neat.

"Can't get used to sleeping in this bed?" He sat down by the fireplace.

"I miss my pillow more." I said as I lay down on the bed and try to mess it up as much as I could. "What are you doing so early?" I asked him.

"I can't sleep either." He said.

"Can't you sleep because you're excited?" I was rolling in bed.

"It's not."

"It's because yesterday's wild bee wave butterfly made you unable to sleep, right?"

"It's not." He said. "I had a dream last night."

"Huh?"

"I dreamed of last year's sacrificial celebration." He said. "Do you remember those elves?"

I pricked up my ears. "Hmm. How? ”

"I dreamed of her."

"Who?"

"The female elf."

"Several female elves."

"The one who wears green clothes and the one with a green cloak is also the one with a green cape."

"A spring breeze in a dream?" I snorted.

"No, I feel like I'm back in time."

"You kid, yesterday's ladies are as you pick, and they are all high-end goods. You're really ...... Well, the taste is so strong. "That being said, I already kind of remember that in the future, this guy seems to have really found an elf as a companion." Didn't you do anything in your dreams? ”

"No ......"

"A guy with a thief's heart but not a thief's guts." I scoffed.

"Your clothes stink." He said suddenly.

I jumped out of bed with a grunt.

"If you have the leisure to go, go back and continue to dream your spring dreams, you can imagine more open, more daring." I walked over to the fireplace and pulled my clothes off.

"It's not like that...... I just dreamed of her, I knew it was her, but I couldn't see her face clearly. Tulayan continued.

"It's not early, kid. You have to hurry up and wash up, and then wake up our dearest and most loving archbishop. We have to keep going today. "I chased him away.

"He's already up." Tulayan said.

"If you sleep in the field, I guess everyone will sleep soundly." I waved my hand. "Do you still have thicker clothes?" I asked.

"Yes."

"Find me a set."

"I'll just do it."

"Didn't you bring two sets?"

"I only have a replacement set."

"I seem to have a cold, go get it for me. Don't tell anyone! Son, I'm your chief of guard. I seem to be trying to cover it up.

The king served breakfast, but the food in his mouth tasted nothing. King Greymane was laughing and talking, but his son had no expression on his face.

I was distraught at this breakfast. I just hope to get over and get out of here.

Archbishop Fao kept being polite to the old wolf before leaving. My mount seemed to sense my irritability and was standing still, puffing in its nostrils.

Something interesting happened, a cavalry team appeared behind our ranks. Leading the team was Crown Prince Jean Greymane.

He smiled at me and nodded.

I didn't want to say anything, but it didn't seem appropriate not to say it. "Passing by by the road, there is a lot of disturbance. Such a grand farewell really made us feel a little embarrassed. ”

"Etiquette is secondary, and the main thing is to ensure your safety."

I laughed, "Thank you for the kindness of Your Majesty, Your Highness the Prince!" As he spoke, I saw a corpse covered with a white cloth being placed by the two of them on the edge of the city wall not far away.

When I looked at Jean again, he was still staring at me with a smile on his face. I smiled at him, but there was something in his eyes......

The sky had not cleared up because of last night's rain, and the still gloomy sky seemed ready to sow some more essence on the damp earth. And my mood at this time is like this sky.
