Rickan glanced down at his new pocket watch.

In the past, he would not use this kind of delicate thing, because precision generally means 'not strong', just like the pocket watch in his hand now, which will break when he falls.

He didn't know what happened to Du Wei, most of them were dead - although he and Du Wei didn't have a deep friendship, but thinking of this idealist dying for his ideals, Rickan's heart was very complicated.

Although he didn't want to evaluate anything, because he was not that kind of person, and naturally he couldn't understand Du Wei's thoughts, he still felt very sorry for Du Wei, an idealist who thought about the country died like this, which is really a pity.

Standing in the shadows, no one could notice Rickan's existence.

Bite!

Rickan pressed the switch on the lid of the pocket watch, and the lid of the pocket watch popped open, and only then did some passers-by realize that there was a rat man leaning against the wall.

Looking at his outfit, the passers-by walked away in surprise.

Rat adventurers are still very popular these days, and even if you see one in the inner city, it's not that unusual.

"Mom, rat. A child yelled at Rykan.

His mother smiled awkwardly at Rikan, who didn't say anything and nodded to her, and then the child's mother picked up her child and walked away.

Bite!

Another crisp sound rang out, the minute hand pointed to 'XI.', and Rickan straightened up, put his hood on, and slowly walked towards the palace.

It took him nine minutes to get to the outside of the palace, and by sneaking around, out of everyone's sight, Rykan came out of an alley and saw the palace gate two hundred feet away, he pulled down his hood and ran.

It's not fast, it's just the speed of a normal run.

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute......"

The palace guards, who were changing shifts, looked at them suspiciously, and then someone pointed the tip of their gun at Rykan and shouted, "Stop!

The 'panting' Rickan was so frightened that he slowly stopped, his lips and body trembling together.

He raised his hands to face the palace guards, who looked at each other, and one of the palace guards asked, "What are you here for?"

"Sending ......"

No sooner had Rykan put his hand down than the tip of the palace guard's spear came forward, almost hitting the tip of his nose.

Rickan smiled wryly, straightened his chest, and said, "The letter is inside, and I heard from little Gris's aunt that he was on duty in the palace...... Really, I'm really just here to deliver letters!"

He learned the name of the palace guard from Du Wei, 'Little Gris'!

"Little Gris?" said a palace guard in surprise, "Didn't he go back to his hometown yesterday?"

"What did you say? He went back to his hometown?!"

Rickan froze, opened his mouth, and repeated, "Little Gris, he's back home?"

"Yes, he quit and went home yesterday!"

The palace guard who told Rykan the news said with envy: "I heard that you are going home to deal with your uncle's inheritance! Eh, isn't the letter in your hand from little Gris's aunt?

"That's it!"

A man who looked like a captain interrupted their conversation with a frown, and then said to Rickan, "Little Gris's is not here, you can go back too!

There was no doubt in his words, but Rykan didn't pay attention.

He smiled reluctantly, "Yes, yes, I'll go back, I'll go back......"

Rykan turned to leave, and within a few steps his face turned gloomy.

He was deceived, Du Wei lied to him!

Rickan felt his face burn hot, he didn't resent Dewey, although this time his presence might be exposed to the eyes of Boss Mott, but the cause of all this was because of his own greed.

If it weren't for the fact that he himself listened to Du Wei's slander and wanted to become a nobleman, this incident would not have happened.

Grinding his teeth, Rykan now wanted to kill someone to appease his anger - if that person happened to be Du Wei, so much the best!

"Rikan!"

Rickan looked up suddenly, and he heard someone calling his name, and it seemed to be Dewey's voice.

"Run—"

He saw the figure on the street corner stumbling but still yelling, how embarrassed Du Wei was in the white moonlight.

His hair was wet with sweat, and his left arm was broken, but he was still pointing behind Rickan with his remaining arm, shouting, "Rickan, run!"

The evening breeze was blowing, and under the moonlight, right in front of Ruikan's eyes, Du Wei's head was divided into two points, as if he was like a toy, and he was dismantled in an instant.

Rickan's body trembled, and he felt the breath of Dewey's body, the breath of the undead - in fact, Dewey was dead, but he was alive again, and there were still wet water stains on his body, not sweat.

Instinctively, Rykan rolled backwards, stood up and glanced quickly, only to see the tip of a spear reflecting the cold light on the ground, and the head tilted sideways with a pair of eyes full of doubt and horror.

Seems to wonder why Rykan was able to escape under this blow......

Isn't that a matter of course!

The captain of the guard was stunned for a moment, and then shouted angrily: "Go and stop Xiugel and that adventurer!"

"Huh!" 'Xiugal' threw down his spear and ran away without looking back, but two palace guards rushed up, and the cold glow of the tip of the spear forced 'Xiugal' to stop.

Rickan was still running with his head down, he didn't care if Dewey had turned himself into an undead with some forbidden spell, but he had already died in front of him - for his ideals!

Stunned and ashamed are all left behind, isn't it just a forced entry into the palace?

"Stop him!"

With a straight stab, the spear shot out like a dragon, and the palace guard tightened his grip on the barrel of the gun and stabbed out the spear in his hand.

The shot stabbed in the air, the tip of the spear slicing across Rykan's head, sliding through a layer of air against Rykan's back.

The head of the gun was pressed down, but a tail flashed under him, and the palace guards looked in amazement at the front of them, which was now empty.

Rickan slipped through the block with a sliding shovel and quickly stood up again with both hands, but four spears were pointed at him and stabbed down.

Another tumbling dodge that can be written in a textbook, Ruikan, who entered the shadow of a palace guard, drilled out of the shadow of a cluster of trees in the next second, the power of the shadow escaped from the body, and wisps of 'black qi' condensed in the air, a pitch-black rat-tribe fell to the ground, pulled out the dagger on his waist and flashed to the side with the power of the spear's direct stab, but the palace guard was carried to the ground by the power of the spear tip - he fell very embarrassed.

As Rickan's 'shadow', this shadow life has half of Ricka's strength, although the strength is weak, but the experience is still the same, just like now-

The 'shadow' jumped into the air, the dagger in his hand turned, and the head of the guard stopped the charging captain with a sharp dagger, and used the blade to cut a bloody streak on his face, and then turned into a shadow and drifted away, but by this time Rykan had already rushed into the palace.

Instead of crashing through the gate, Rykan chose to travel through the shadow plane to the back of the gate, no matter how glorious the place is, there will always be shadows.

The captain of the guard knew that he could not catch up, so he angrily threw down the spear in his hand, turned his head and shouted to his subordinates: "Go and ring the alarm, someone has broken into the palace!"

It didn't take long for the alarm bells of the royal palace to be sounded.

[The alarm bell is ringing, there is an intruder!]

[Looking for an intruder——]

【Destroy the invaders!】

Rykan hung from the ceiling, only to see some of the lines on the wall light up, and then the two armors below moved on their own.

Rykan took a deep breath.

Golem!

Thinking of Du Wei who died in front of him, and thinking of the ring in his arms, Rickan gritted his teeth.

Isn't it just to infiltrate the palace?
