——
Silently stepping over a tower, Edward moved through the spires of the castle.
Although, an invisible barrier enveloped him, but invisible magic was only a bit magical in the eyes of those civilians who did not know magic...... On such bright moonlit nights, when crossing some of the boundaries between light and dark, subtle distortions of light are produced. Therefore, he had to be careful.
Fortunately, the flaw was not too big to be detected unless someone stood twenty or thirty feet above the ground and looked closely. And the castle is a building that has an unexpected blind spot for a single person to break through the outer layer, a single-handedly falling enemy from the sky can at least easily cross the moat and pass through two or three layers of magical defense, as for those small means of protection, it is not a very difficult thing for a psychic warlock who can see the magic aura.
Most importantly, it was not a dead night, the nobility's nightlife was just beginning, and not many people would have thought that someone would sneak in at the height of the buzz - most of the servants were busy with the dinner of the big guys, and the guards were in the middle of a shift change. The shift changers were in a hurry to go back to rest. And the people who have just taken up the post are well fed and drunk, and the reaction is slow, which is when the defense is most lax.
For a veteran, psychological darkness is actually far easier to hide than real darkness.
Edward was unfamiliar with the structure of the castle, but the route of his trip had already been planned—he gently pushed open a window lattice, past the three towers. Dodging in, walking down the spiral staircase, his gaze swept slightly in the porch, and two heavily armed swordsmen were reflected in his pupils, and Edward paused slightly, and walked down the corridor, passing between the two.
The combination of the dual effects of forgery and invisibility, two swordsmen who stood calmly and clearly had good abilities. I can only turn a blind eye to this black shadow......
"Who are you, what do you want to do......?
The end of the porch. It was a wide study, and when the door was opened, the man sitting behind the desk and gently sipping a cup of rose tea after the meal was stunned, until the tea was in his stomach, and he did not react, and there was no zài in the memory of this black robe...... So he stood up with a snort, threw down his teacup and touched the long sword at his waist!
However, before his fingertips touched the hilt of the sword, his gaze. He had already met a pair of silver pupils.
The terrifying force, like an invisible giant hand, pressed him back to his seat with a thud, clasped it tightly, and he could only stare wide-eyed as he watched the black burqa Shi Ran walk into the room, stretching out a hand and swiping lightly.
Then a darkness parted in the space. With an exclamation, a person has already fallen out with a thud!
"Teacher...... No, Lord Edward, you ......" Poor little Ryan screamed. One hand rubbed his buttocks, which were almost broken into four petals, and the other hand pulled out the endless air cylinder in his mouth, but the familiar scenery around him immediately made him dumbfounded and speechless.
The stagnation lasted for three seconds before he was finally driven away by a slap on the back of the head.
"Hurry up, you should know what's here, right?" Edward frowned - he hadn't had any trouble so far, but it was possible that the other party's spellcaster would soon notice the mutation.
But the little nobleman of the Lane family didn't hurry up.
"Well, but...... It's a hassle to open this place, and I'll need at least half an hourglass scale," the little one lowered his gaze and whispered. Edward frowned impatiently, but before the psychic could speak, he suddenly noticed that the other party was peeking at him, and a blush suddenly bloomed on his face. His hands also habitually rubbed the corners of his clothes.
What does this mean?
"That's right, the switch here is turned on by magic, and although the surrounding magic has been replaced, it ...... Well, Mr. Edward, can you turn around? Please give me some time, too...... Please refrain from peeking as well. ”
In a corner of the wall, more than three feet high, a piece of stone pattern that had originally decorated the corner slid outward, and then opened, revealing one of the stone pillars...... Well, or rather, the word stone pestle is more appropriate? It was about a foot long, a grip-thick, smooth surface decorated with subtle textures.
Watching the psychic warlock turn his head, the poor little guy hesitated for a moment, then leaned his head closer to the stone pestle and stretched out the tip of his pink tongue. With a slight hesitation, he began to glide deftly across the rocky face......
Well, the reason why he is pitiful is nothing more than because he doesn't know that the vision of a telemancer is a little more comprehensive than three hundred and sixty degrees, as described in an advertisement for a certain tracksuit. So whether to turn around or not has no practical effect.
As for the organ...... Well, it's actually very scientifically designed.
The metal showed pieces of subtle rune traces, and the tip of the little guy's tongue was licking according to those marks, making a subtle sizzling sound, and as the pink tip of the tongue slowly rolled, each rune would begin to burst out with a magical luster, as if it was a kind of magic circle launched through the medium of his saliva.
"You, who the hell are you?"
After the initial shock, the middle-aged man seemed to have finally regained his composure, although the big garlic nose on his face, which made him calm or flustered, did not seem to make much difference, but at least, he was not struggling indiscriminately. Rather, they try to stall for time...... After all, not far beyond the corridor is where the knights gather.
"What are the Blackhawks going to do lately?"
A voice, peaceful and quiet, seemed to echo in his heart, making the middle-aged man's finally calm mind go crazy again......
"Uh...... You damn bitch, you don't want more secrets from me......" His face showed trepidation, but he held on, hoping that the yelling would alarm the sentinels at the end of the hallway, but alas, he managed to open his mouth and shut up. But as soon as the words came out, the voice had already changed and reorganized, becoming a slight breathing sound.
And the other party's voice still echoed in his head: "Where is the Duke's main force deployed now?" "How many troops and how much grain and grass are there in Swan Castle?"
staring at the uninvited guest in fear, the middle-aged man was unclear about the other party's constant questions...... One question after another seemed to be getting deeper, but there was no time left for him to answer, as if he was aim. It's just to ask questions.
Of course, ordinary people would not know. The utility of psychic abilities.
mind probe,
As the name suggests, the ability pierces the mind like a needle, and the answer to every question, without words, has been excavated so thoroughly that it can't even hide any details!
After a minute, Edward looked away and shook his head.
Not so lucky.
The middle-aged man in front of him. Just a small baron with too few things on his mind, he was just a side of the Blackhawk family, with little ability and inexperience, so he was sent to defend the city, and it was the druids who really made most of the decisions. He is only responsible for judging whether these decisions are carried out or not.
Moreover, the city has nothing to decide now, and Blackhawk has swallowed up the last of the Lane family's territory, completely razing the area.
Meaningful news. There are only two, Schwanstein Castle is now used as a frontline hub, and there is indeed a batch of food, which is about to be sent out in the near future, because the destination has not yet been connected to the teleportation circle, and at this stage, the family cannot spare a high-level mage who is good at long-distance precision teleportation.
Edward turned.
At this time, little Ryan had just finished his 'ritual', and when the tip of his tongue swiped the last rune, the floor of the room rumbled and vibrate. In the middle, a piece of masonry from a three-foot house bounced upwards with a thud, splashing up a puff of dust.
"This, this mechanism is the work of an ancient magician, as old as this castle, only among the ancestors of the Ryan family, the original lord bloodline of this place...... saliva in order to start it. Noticing someone's gaze at some point, the little nobleman raised his voice with a flushed face.
"Are you sure that only saliva can be opened? There should be a female ...... in your family's ancestors Forget it, when I didn't say it. ”
Glancing at the wet 'stone pestle' Edward to gather his mind, in the soft sound of clicking, the invisible power of mind control tore the heavy masonry outward, revealing a deep hole below, and the red-faced young man hurriedly ran over...... But instead of entering, he squatted down, reached out and pressed lightly on the stone brick, and with a soft click, one of the inside of the stone brick flicked open a lid, so he reached out and took out a small box from it, and opened it. A turquoise amulet was taken out of it.
Quite cunning.
Edward nodded, but suddenly he raised his gaze, and an invisible force grabbed the back of the little nobleman's neck, and in his exclamation, a bottle had been stuffed into his mouth, and then it was still a cloud of darkness, and it was covered head-on.
Tightening the dimensional cave with his hand, the silver light in Edward's eyes flowed, and the city lord who had just been freed from the shackles opened his eyes wide! His face distorted, staring at the person in front of him, and finally slowly lowered his head, and fell asleep.
......
After only a few breaths, there were a few faint grinding sounds at the door, and then the door was pushed open with a thud, revealing three figures in robes outside the door! The leader among them, dressed in striped robes fluttering slightly, was the same druid that Edward had seen not long ago. And behind them, there were several knights in full armor.
As the door opened, the gaze in the striped hood fell on the unconscious city lord...... Then, a pale slender palm swept down the hood, revealing a dark wooden mask that covered the entire face, and the short incantation was chanted at the same time. He pressed his hands on his eyes in the hood, and the eye holes on the black-brown wooden mask suddenly flashed with a faint purple light.
But the room that I looked around was still quiet.
"Lord Castle, Lord Castle Lord, how are you?"
The three of them cautiously walked into the room, and a person who followed behind the leader began to call, so the middle-aged man finally came to his senses...... But touching his half-bald head, he looked at the people around him and shook his head in confusion: "Hmm. Oh, it's Lord Leia, do you have something to do with me?"
"Lord Castle, what's wrong with you?" asked one of the two druids following behind the Wooden Mask, "Someone has reported that I've heard some movement from you. ”
"Movement......? I don't know, maybe the aperitif just now may have been a little strong, and I was a little dizzy when I was washed by the hot tea. The middle-aged man lowered his gaze, revealing a thoughtful look. However, the psionic effect of memory weaving has already turned the memory of less than half an hourglass scale. Erased cleanly, so after thinking about it for a long time, he could only give an answer that someone else preset.
The druid under the wooden mask raised his head and stared at him, his hands full of greenery and flashing energy, as if to confirm whether he was lying,
"Our guards have found something suspicious about your room. There seemed to be some strange shaking just now. Are you sure you just fainted?" he said, his gaze carefully scanning the ground, and then, suddenly, he crouched down, touched the ground, and showed everyone a faint layer of ash dust on his hand.
"Stone powder. Seemingly. It seems that someone has been in here before, and it seems that there has been some probing. ”
With that, he waved. Then a rock on the ground suddenly bubbled, and almost in the blink of an eye, it flowed open, revealing a small hole black enough to allow people to enter and exit!
Everyone's eyes were suddenly overflowing with surprise.
However, Yiqiē did not get a turnaround because of this—a moment later, the two knights in charge of the investigation climbed up from the cave with a helpless face against the mud and sand.
"No, Your Excellency, there is a simple little room below. We checked, there was no sign of anyone entering, there were no mechanisms, the walls around and below were dead, and the back led to the other rooms of the castle, and there were no suspicious people or objects in it......"
"Can this also let him run away?" After a moment of silence, the druid in the flower robe suddenly snorted coldly, and turned to leave: "Block all the city gates!
Your Excellency, the city lord, and the rest of the people looked at each other, and in the end, they could only follow his footsteps.
So, the room fell silent.
It wasn't until a moment later that the silence was broken by a flash of silver light.
In the silver light, in the corner of the room, a mahogany chair twisted, gradually curled, and finally turned into the black shadow, smiled coldly, the robe on the psychic warlock's body had been infected with a layer of bark-like gray, and with a slight tremble, a 'druid' walked out of the corridor, and then separated from a group of respectful servants and walked out of the castle.
一 qiē顺lì.
Edward, who had stepped into the alley, whistled a little proudly. Out of sight of the crowd around him, he began to pick up speed, trotting through the space around him.
Under the moonlight, a cold wind rose.
The temperature of the space plummeted suddenly! The cold wind howled, and in an instant, the warm night wind of summer turned into an angry tornado! Countless sharp blue ice picks took shape in this storm, and then swirled and swayed around! Although it was only a matter of an eye, when the ice pick flew out of a dozen feet, it was already half a foot long, as sharp as a dagger!
The footsteps of the march paused and then slipped. The man stepped back as if nothing was there, dodging a few ice picks.
However, out of the corner of his eye, he could also see a large black shadow falling from the sky! A huge 'big cat' jumped high, and the moonlight outlined its colorful fur, shining in the night. The body is more than ten feet tall, elegantly stretching out smooth lines, but the fangs and jagged blood basin mouth are enough to destroy any beauty, and in the blood-red eyes, there is not the slightest beast mania, only with a kind of cold killing intent that only belongs to humans.
Whew!
The ice storm is just a decoy, and the giant tiger's pounce is the real killer.
The sharp claw tips on the tiger's claws, more than three inches long, shimmering brightly, are comparable to the waist thickness of the forelimbs, this claw is enough for a person to disembowel! Not to mention that this huge beast is not an ordinary animal, but a human being, and its claws are stretched and bent, no matter how the opponent reacts, it will fall within its attack range!
However, the moonlight suddenly brightened.
The brightness almost caused the surrounding space to shrink suddenly, and then the whole thing dimmed - but the optical illusion only existed for a moment, and this dimness was immediately replaced by a dazzling bright light, and it was also caught off guard, the huge tiger, which had already closed in time, crashed into the ice!
The giant tiger roared angrily, and in an instant, it almost woke up the entire city that had just slept peacefully!
The cold air of the ice storm disappeared without a trace, but suddenly, there were still a few ice picks, which cut blood marks on the giant tiger's body! The beautiful fur rolled up, and the flesh was frozen by the ice and turned into a messy red.
But what hurts even more is faith.
Grasping the blow with full control, and almost being injured by his companions, the druid can't help but be a little irritable, after the wild transformation, although he still has the consciousness of a human being, but in terms of instinct, it is closer to the products of nature, and that kind of manic personality is also easy to penetrate into his soul!
The scorching silver light brought tears to the tiger's eyes, but for the beast, the damage was not fatal, and the tiger shook his head as he tried to find the target......
He found it,
Because a voice sounded above his head.
"Cautious, though, how did you find out?"
The sound was relaxed, but with it was a harsh, piercing sound of metal grinding!
