Nowhere to Escape: Puppet Chapter
Bang!
While the two were chatting, a figure slammed open the door of the hall and flew in, smashing the long table on the spot, it was actually a city defender, but if you look closely, this person is covered with gray patterns, and he doesn't look like a normal person at all.
"Let's go, find a place to hide!" said Master Rook eagerly.
Mo Qiunian was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he quickly covered his mouth, although he had seen dead people, but the scene in front of him still made him completely unacceptable, his stomach couldn't stop churning, the flesh that was still exposed from the severed neck was still wriggling, and the plasma was popping out.
"What's going on!?" the uneasiness in Promise's heart reached its peak at this moment.
Master Rook was very anxious in his heart, he didn't know what was happening, he thought that the retreat of the Iron Guard was good news, and he was about to arrange the rest of the matter, but he knew that everyone in the defenders of the city had changed their appearance, killing each other like evil spirits, and after seeing him, they immediately killed him.
"You go first, they are about to rush up, leave from the tunnel, find a way to escape from the North Wind City, go to Eagle Owl City, White Wolf City, in short, don't come back!"
Master Rook gasped slightly, he was old, and it took a lot of physical strength to kill all the way back, and it was already hell outside, which must have something to do with the gray patterns on their bodies, but now there is really no time to explore, can you go one by one.
"Hold on to the promise!"
"Don't let him run!"
"What's the hurry! Time is in time, there are so many of us, surrounded by Wind Rest Castle, can he still fly out?"
"Idiot, you want to die, I don't want to die! Do you know who is dying in the next second? If it were you, I'd rather slow down. ”
From the sound of footsteps alone, you can hear how many people are rushing towards the Storm's Rest Castle, and you can faintly feel that the floor is shaking, Master Rook breathed a sigh of relief, smiled calmly, and walked out with a sword, he said softly, "Young master, let's go quickly, I'm old, I can't stop them for long." ”
The promise made a decision immediately, and he pulled Mo Qiunian and walked towards the west side hall, but Mo Qiunian shook off his hand, "My sister is still in the kitchen, I'm going to find her." ”
"Then don't go yet!"
Promise was very irritable in his heart, and he grabbed Mo Qiunian and ran towards the kitchen, when did this still talk so much nonsense, his heart was in a hurry, but he was injured, and his eyes suddenly turned black, and he almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Mo Qiunian quickly held on to the promise, and without saying anything, he recited the promise and ran towards the kitchen, and people can often burst out stronger than usual at critical moments.
Sou!
Suddenly, he heard the sound of breaking the sky, and a steel spear stabbed straight towards Mo Qiunian, who turned his head to see that countless defenders had blocked the entrance of the hall, and he was almost frightened to the soles of his feet, and his whole body was upside down.
With a crisp sound, the steel spear was slashed down in the air by Master Rook.
"What are you doing?
Promise roared hoarsely, he didn't want to be angry, but the succession of accidents made it difficult for him to maintain a peaceful state of mind.
Mo Qiunian only reacted at this time, and ran forward with his head buried in his head, the Wind Breath Castle was very large, and there were countless stairs in each passage, since they had entered from the front, it was not without a chance to leave the tunnel immediately.
Seeing this, the defenders who rushed up completely ignored Luke and were about to chase after the two of them, for whom every second wasted was likely to cost them their lives, and they could not afford to wait.
"After the battle of Pingding, Lord Nolan also said that I can retire with peace of mind, it seems that there is no chance, don't be in a hurry to go, don't you see that my old bones are still standing here?"
Luke stood in front of them alone, he hadn't held a sword for a long time, and he felt a sense of rustiness, as long as he was still standing, no matter how many people came, he didn't think about it.
"Kill him. ”
There are people who value their lives more than anything else, but there are also people for whom there are things in this world that are more important than life, whether it is principles, or love, or loyalty, or honor, whatever it is, which makes them live more like a person than a walking corpse.
A terrible scream came from behind, and the defenders fell under Luke's sword one after another, but the mood of the promise gradually sank to the bottom, Luke has been a boy by his grandfather's side since he was a child, and was knighted after Nolan inherited the title of duke, saying that he was a retainer, but in fact he was no different from his family.
After the Battle of Pingding, he never used a sword again, and he didn't know how much of his demeanor was still there.
"Sister, stop cooking, run! The defenders are crazy!"
Mo Qiunian started to roar before he arrived, he couldn't hear the sound of fighting behind him, only the footsteps of chasing and killing remained, and he couldn't tell which direction it came from, as if someone was chasing them everywhere.
"Squat!"
Mo Qiunian didn't dare to hesitate, subconsciously squatted down with his head in his hands, and a steel spear flew straight through his hair, making him break out in a cold sweat.
Seeing this, Mo Ling'er stretched out her hand, and the spirit array emerged from the walls on both sides, turning into thick stone pillars that ran through the entire sealed road, taking advantage of this momentary line of sight, she hurriedly stepped forward and dragged Mo Qiunian up from the ground, and walked up the stairs at the end of the corridor.
"Whew...... Call...... Call...... Sister, slow down, I'm still carrying someone on my back!"
Mo Qiunian ran almost out of breath, although the road was not far, but he was so nervous that he ran too fast at first, and his physical strength bottomed out in an instant, but he didn't dare to stop, for fear that they would stab him to death with a spear from behind.
"Let me go...... I can walk on my own. Promise said suddenly.
"You two shut up! Mo Ling'er glared at them, turned around and continued to run upstairs.
"Sister, the tunnel is in the west hall, why do you run up, it's still a dead end when you get to the top floor!" Although Mo Qiunian was half tired, the logic was still very clear, and there would definitely be no way to run up like this.
"If you have the time to ask this nonsense, it's better to save some physical strength and just follow me. Mo Ling'er didn't bother to explain.
"There are so many people in the city defenders, no one is allowed to know about the existence of the tunnel, even if they don't know, the west hall is now overcrowded, and it is self-defeating to go from there, at this time, go the opposite way, go directly to the top floor, they can't find us for a while, they will definitely search every room, it is true that you can delay some time, but how are you going to leave?"
The promise is also a little puzzled, delaying time does not mean that they can escape from the Wind Rest Castle, so many defenders, they will definitely search the top floor in the end, if Mo Qiunian did not come to her at the beginning, the two of them immediately went to the west hall to leave from the tunnel It was too late, but now it has become a dead end.
"Who told you that I was going to leave?" Mo Ling'er asked rhetorically.
"Top, you mean ......"
The promise was suddenly realized, but Mo Qiunian was still confused.
......
There were only about 40,000 men left in the defenders, and the irony was that more than 8,000 people died at the hands of their own people, and their distrust of each other led them to fight, and less than 2,000 people died from spells.
As the minutes passed, 40,000 people blocked the entrances to Storm's End, searched every room, and even all the cabinets, and looked under the bed, but the three people seemed to have evaporated out of thin air, and there was no trace of them.
Seeing that the time had passed twenty-four o'clock, it was already the next day, and there were less than seven hours left.
Wang Wei was anxious, no matter how big the Wind Rest Fort was, it could stop 40,000 people from searching, and all corners were searched, but there was nothing, and he originally planned to ask Luke, but after killing hundreds of people, this old bone directly choked.
"It's over, they must have run away, and now they can really wait for death in peace. Wang Wei sat down on the ground and said helplessly, what he thought was quite easy, he could still be run away by them.
"Impossible, every entrance and exit is guarded, they will definitely not be able to get out of the Storm's Breath Castle, and there must be other reasons for not being able to find it, so it is a little pessimistic to start waiting for death now. Ai Lan was still very calm.
"For other reasons? You mean they're still hiding in Storm's End, but we can't find them?" Wang Wei asked thoughtfully.
In fact, most of the places we search are only superficially visible to people who can be hidden, such as wardrobes and obvious places under the bed, because of the time constraints and anxiety in our hearts, so it is easy for us to ignore some places that seem impossible to hide. A smile appeared on Ai Lan's lips.
"Are they hiding in a place where it's impossible to hide people? Can you just tell me if it's okay to stop around the bush? The next second it might be the two of us who die, do you know?" Wang Wei said angrily.
"Pipes, the climate in the north is cold all year round, so the aristocratic families will ask the spirit mage to set a spell as the source, and the walls of the room are covered with warm current pipes to regulate the room temperature, the pipes that stick to the walls of the room are narrow and long, but if it is a large pipe between floors, it is enough to accommodate a person's body, if they hide in the pipes, they will naturally not be found by searching the room. Ai Lan confidently knocked on the wall and pointed to the ceiling.
"No way, you also said that this is a warm current pipe, even if its main flow pipe is enough to accommodate a person's body, but the heat inside can't stay at all, whether you can breathe or not has to be said, you said that they are hiding inside, I really don't believe it. ”
It's not that Wang Wei doesn't know that there is a warm current pipe in the Wind Breath Fort, but he didn't think about it at all, if the warm current pipe is not blocked by the pipe wall and the wall, it is hot enough to burn people, he doesn't believe that this kind of place can hide people, and there is still a drama to roast a person.
"Have you forgotten that the first room we searched had a comfortable temperature, but now in this room, don't you feel a little cold?" Ai Lan sneered and looked at the ceiling.
