Chapter 94: The Rebellion of the Royal Capital (5)
In just three minutes, the entire palace was 'moving'!
The court attendants opened the doors of each room with pale faces, and the golems that looked like armor came out of the room, and the golems on the corridor also moved.
Tables, chairs, candlesticks, and portraits and statues, they all moved.
The animated objects, along with the golems, began to search the entire palace in an attempt to find the intruder.
[Sharp Ear]!
The court mages teleported in, and before they could enter the palace, they used a spell on themselves.
"The intruder is a wanderer, everyone search carefully!"
A group of forbidden troops passed by, their captain yelling at the soldiers, their sharp eyes searching around, but they didn't see the black shadow on the chandelier.
When they were gone, Rickan nimbly climbed up to the ceiling, loosened his toes, the claws on his toes retracted, and then he kicked his legs slightly, and landed on a statue in the air without making a sound.
He then climbed down from the statue on all fours, like a large mouse, and then hid himself behind the statue's base, evading a search party.
They could never have imagined that three minutes had passed, and Rykan was still in the antechamber now, not going anywhere.
Since Rykan did not know where Krylov III was now, judging from the situation just now, Mott's men should have mixed into the palace.
According to Dewey, Krylov III only controlled Mott behind the scenes, and even the Marquis of Elfaro believed that he was still controlling the underground forces in Greenland.
The reason why Krylov III was able to do this must be because not many people knew about it!
When the guards reported up, they would only say 'there was an intruder', but Krylov III would never have seen Dewey's body, and if he couldn't see Dewey's body, then he wouldn't have known that Mott had 'defected' - this was the information that Dewey had worked so hard to get, and now that Dewey was dead, he was probably the only one who knew this information......
If you promise something, you must do it!
Why did Du Wei not go to someone else to do this, but to find him to do it, it may be because his people have been completely exposed, and he came to him in desperation.
Rickan glanced twice, then turned and fled into the shadow plane, and then two arrows stuck in his original position, and a golem with a red glow in his eyes sounded the alarm.
【Intruder spotted!】
【Destroy the Invaders - Fail!】
【Intruder Escape!】
Rickan scrambled out from behind a bookshelf and thrust the dagger back into its sheath, the garment on his left arm already torn and the power of shadow wrapped around it—it made him want to curse his mother.
The palace is really terrifying, whether it is the material plane or the shadow plane, I didn't expect that there are shadow lives in the corresponding shadow plane here, he thought that it had been cleaned up by the royal family a long time ago, but he didn't expect to bump into a stealing ghost just after entering, and one was accidentally cut by him.
He had killed the stealer, but the dagger had also smelled of blood, and although he had thought about throwing it away to keep it secret, he thought of the golems and the forbidden army in the palace, and he dispelled that idea in an instant.
He needed to see that it was heavily protected, and that it was supposed to be the seat of Krylov III.
Swiftly scurrying up the bookshelves, Rykan ran to the corner, then stepped on the inner eaves and ran directly above the door of the house, and after the last janitor entered the room, he bent down and hooked the outer doorframe with both hands, turned over and hung on the doorframe outside, and then shrank up, and ran deep along the relief in the palace.
Rykan was like a moving shadow, constantly passing through the visual blind spots of the Praetorian Army and the Golem, but without making a sound.
Rickan didn't know what a 'blind spot' was, but experience had told him that he should do it now, so that he could go deeper—until he met Krylov III,
I don't know when it started, Rykan suddenly found that he couldn't do [Shadow Shuttle], and he didn't have any panic about this.
Ever since he guessed that this palace might be a 'mage tower' without spell traps, he had already prepared in his heart that although he couldn't do [Shadow Shuttle], he could still perform [Shadow Teleportation], but this was a spell-like ability, and he didn't know if it would be detected.
Looking at the magic aura on those court mages, Rykan felt that there was a high chance that they would be detected.
If the palace is really a mage tower, then [Detection Magic] should have been activated by now!
Although those court mages blessed the [Sharp Ear Technique], when Rykan acted, it was as if he had blessed the [Silent Action], and there was no sound.
Even if their hearing was more than ten times stronger, they would not be able to detect Rickan's movements.
The heart is like a mirror, the heart is like water, thorough, calm, after bypassing the forbidden army and the golem, Rykan climbed up to the second floor.
At this time, Rickan's breathing began to become a little rapid.
However, it was also discovered!
"Second floor!"
A court mage who ran from below shook his body and looked up at the ceiling, "He's on the stairs!"
【Intruder spotted!】
【Intruder spotted!】
"Second floor! second floor!"
Some of the forbidden army also shouted: "The intruder is on the second floor!"
"Shh
Bang dang!
The tall, burly Steel Golem rushed to the top of the stairs with the Praetorian Guards, and at a glance spotted Rykan with his dagger drawn.
With the Iron Golem in front and the forbidden army on the side, even if the opponent is only one, he is still a wanderer with weak frontal combat ability, but their extremely high combat quality still allows them to form a battle formation.
An Iron Golem took the lead in swinging its fist, but a 'clang' was heard, and its fist struck the metal armrest, breaking the armrest in two, and Rykan jumped up along its arms, and while it was still in mid-air, it kicked its legs at the Iron Golem's head, and then curled up, rolling twice in the air and landing on the ground, avoiding the two Forbidden Soldiers' swords.
Under the light, the sword flickered with cold light, and another tall steel golem blocked Rykan's path, and then the two Forbidden Army soldiers behind him turned around and slashed down, along with the two Forbidden Army soldiers in front of him, to kill Rykan.
Sonor!
Rickan flicked the dagger in his hand, and the two swords staggered in the air, and then he did another backflip and jumped under the Iron Golem behind him, dodging the two swords that stabbed straight at him.
Tong!
The Iron Golem stepped on it, as if it shook the entire building, but there was no flesh and blood splashing under its feet.
[Shadow Teleportation]!
After emerging from the shadow of a golem, Rykan rolled to the left on the spot, under the crotch of one of the Janissaries, making it impossible for the two Praetorian soldiers and a Golem to attack him.
Clang!
There was another clash of swords, and the dagger in his hand turned, and Rykan spun around and struck the wrist of the Forbidden soldier with the handle of the dagger, making his arm numb and unable to exert any more force.
At the same time, his legs exerted force, and people didn't even have time to react, as if a black shadow flew in front of him - the Praetorian soldiers and the stone golem didn't have time to stop Rykan, making him rush straight over.
"Protect Your Majesty!"
At this time, the running Rickan shouted, making the forbidden soldiers and golems on the upper and lower floors move faster.
Especially the forbidden soldiers on the second floor, they all rushed in one direction.
"No!"
Before the others could even stop it, Rykan sank into the shadows beneath his feet, and the next second he appeared behind the forbidden army standing in front of a door-
[Shadow Teleportation]!
Rykan shoved the Praetorian soldier, causing the Praetorian soldier to stagger forward and crash into the back of one of the Praetorian soldiers.
Bang!
Rykan slammed open the door and saw Krylov III, who was sitting majestically behind his desk.
Then he made a move that surprised everyone-
He, get down on one knee!
He bowed his head and said, "Adventurer Rikan, I have seen His Majesty Krylov III!"
