Chapter 520: Into the Castle
"What's going on? Is it the enemy? How could anyone dare to attack here! ”
A slightly childish, sharp, like a child desperately trying to show the dignity of an adult, sounded, hearing this voice, the old butler only felt a little pain in his head. He turned, and from the other side of the corridor strode a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy. The boy's appearance is somewhat similar to Daniel's, but the silhouette is softer. In particular, the soft flaxen hair, which was gently attached to the boy's forehead, made him look a little shy.
The young man carried a long sword forged from stainless steel, which was well-made, and layers of dark lines like fish scales could be seen on the sword. It's just that the sword is too sharp, and that kind of edge is so incompatible with a young man with a weak appearance.
"Young Master Onte, you shouldn't be here." The old butler walked back and said, "There is an invasion of foreign enemies now, and the guards are fighting each other. You should take refuge in your father's vault, which is the safest place in this castle. ”
"No!" The boy stubbornly said: "I am Daniel's son, and in my father's absence, I have an obligation to protect this castle." ”
He walked forward with his sword, and the old butler grabbed his sleeve and said, "Young Master Onte, just because you are the son of an adult, you should hide even more." The meaning of your life is far beyond this castle. ”
"But I'm sixteen years old, and I'm already a man. I can't hide anymore, I'm going to fight! The boy took the old butler's hand away and left stubbornly.
The old butler sighed, and suddenly felt a chill behind him. Looking back, two men stood behind him at some point, one fat and one thin, but they complemented each other. The thin man wears light leather armor, while the fat man wears a heavy coat. They all wore iron masks on their faces, with no ornamentation on them, only two deep eye sockets.
"You guys came just in time, hurry up and follow the young master, remember to just protect him!" The butler shouted.
The two nodded, and the thin man's figure flashed away, and there was no sound in his movements. The fat man strode after Ante, and as soon as he ran away, the whole corridor shook. They were Daniel's carefully trained personal guards, who he left behind when Daniel left behind to protect his son and the castle. Even the old butler didn't know what their names were, only that they both possessed fourteen or fifteen levels of source power.
A dragon-like flame burst from the ground, destroying several insidious traps in the passageway. After the explosion, the passage was filled with an astonishing heat wave, and Eren pulled out the heavy knife stuck in the ground. Pointing forward, a team of Mountain Kings and a team of mixed fires immediately rushed in. A moment later, a fierce battle broke out at the corner of the passage.
The battle was in full swing in the castle, after the Darkfire took off the sentries on the guard wall and opened the city gates. Alan storms the castle with his warriors, only to find that the battle is not as smooth as he had imagined. Although there are not many guards in Daniel's castle, they are all elite soldiers and familiar with the terrain. They began to retreat as if they were outnumbered, but Alan pursued them with the warriors, but led them into several passages full of traps, wounding many of them.
Alan put away his contempt and piled up in a steady manner, fighting with the guards for every passage, corridor and room in the castle, and pushing them deeper into the castle step by step. The deeper you go into the castle, the fewer traps and traps there are. After all, this is the place where the people in the fort live, so you can't walk around in the passage full of traps in your normal life, right?
Although during this period, the guards in the castle tried many times to induce Alan and them to disperse, so as to take advantage of the complicated ending of the castle to divide and strangle the invaders. The passage in the castle is complex and narrow, and it is difficult to accommodate a large number of people and horses to quickly pass through guò, which is also the design of the castle at the beginning of the construction of the castle to be able to use the castle structure to limit the number of enemy soldiers when the enemy invades. It's a pity that Allen is not a person who plays cards according to routines, and in the face of complex branches, he adopts the simplest and most brutal methods.
After deciding on the direction of the attack, Allen went straight. Walls, rooms, and passages filled with traps were violently demolished. With his abilities and the Warhammer of the Mountain King's warriors, these obstacles were eventually reduced to rubble. They carved an artificial passage through the castle to the heart of the castle.
The deeper he went into the castle, the more confused Alan became. It stands to reason that they had already made such a big noise, even if Daniel slept like a dead pig, he would have to wake up this time. No matter how Daniel holds his identity, now the castle has been demolished, if he is in the castle, he should show up and intercept it. But so far, Alan has not encountered strong obstacles.
If so, it only means that Daniel is not in the castle. The whereabouts of the viscount became a question in Allen's mind, and perhaps, he had already gone to intercept Oban himself. As soon as Alan thought so, suddenly a small platform in a castle in front of him burst out with a momentum that was not weak. Eren raised his head, tiptoed to the ground, and dragged Qianjun in that direction as fast as he could.
It was a flat and suspended platform in the castle, which was not large, and it could accommodate more than a dozen people. Now, there are six Sanno warriors on it teaming up to form a defensive line, desperately trying to intercept a man's attack. The man was wearing the Unicorn Legion's standard armor, but the helmet had a yellow feather stuck in it. It was an officer-level figure, he was condensed in strength, and he also had the appearance of fifteen or sixteen. A giant sword in his hand emitted a faint yellow light flame, like a bright flame enveloping the giant sword, constantly impacting the mountain king's defense.
The warrior of the Mountain King could not withstand the onslaught of this level of strongman, and when the officer's giant sword was raised, the shields of the two warriors were thrown away. Another sweep, and the warrior immediately saw blood and fell. They had a huge wound in their abdomen, bleeding profusely, and they couldn't survive. Every Mountain King warrior is a valuable combat power to Allen, and seeing his warrior being killed, Allen's eyes suddenly become fierce.
The officer dragged his sword back and cursed secretly. These intruders in front of them are only about seven or eight levels of source power, and they are good at joining forces to attack together, especially after taking a defensive position, it is almost difficult to find a flaw. It took him a lot of effort to kill two of them. It can be seen that these soldiers are not at all able to deal with ordinary soldiers, and I really don't know where these guys with surprisingly hard hands came from.
At this moment, a flame-like aura was in the air, and the brilliant majesty was pressed with a domineering intent like fire. The officer seemed to hear his whole body moaning, but he felt a weak sense of frustration under the suppression of the other party's might. He beat his spirit, broke off his drink, and raised his head to attack a sword. But he saw a black lightning shoot down from his head, better at the tip of his giant sword.
The officer trembled and bounced as if he had been electrocuted, and the man couldn't help but retreat. Then a figure flashed in front of him, and a silver-haired boy dragged a black strange knife and pounced. The next moment, the young man's figure was already drowned behind by the flying black sword shadows.
The clanging sound of clinking was incessant, and a series of knife sounds eventually converged into a deafening roar. Everyone on the platform only felt that the world in their eyes flickered slightly, and when they came back to their senses, everyone had already fallen to the ground. Looking at the scene again, the giant sword in the officer's hand shattered inch by inch. Allen probed forward with a long knife and slapped the officer on the shoulder lightly. The officer felt as if he had been trampled on by an ancient giant elephant, the armor on his shoulders was shattered, his legs were weak, and he fell to his knees.
Alan looked at him and said, "You killed a few of me, and if you surrender, I will let you make up for it." ”
This officer is also a tough guy, he laughed a few times when he heard this, and spat on Allen: "Don't talk nonsense, Lao Tzu is not a soft egg who betrays sincerity!" ”
Alan didn't dodge, and let the phlegm fall on his body, and surprise flashed in the officer's eyes. Alan nodded: "Okay, then let's get on the road." ”
After saying that, Qianjun was a little on his chest, and the officer's eyes immediately widened. He opened his mouth, but instead of spitting out blood, a mouthful of orange flames came out of his mouth. Then he shook his body and fell to the ground, his whole body covered with green smoke. With a heavy knife in his hand, a wave of heat rose from under his feet and swept through his body. The sputum that the officer spat on him disappeared as if it had never been there.
He stepped over the corpse and continued deeper with his knife.
Over time, the battle gradually infiltrated other corners of the fort. By the time the East was exposed, the battlefield had advanced into the interior of the castle, and the resistance was getting weaker and weaker. At least for the first half hour, Alan had no chance to make a move. He casually moved into a room, which was supposed to be Daniel's study. The room is elegantly furnished, with a portrait of a woman on the wall behind the chair.
The woman in the portrait is gentle and beautiful, so I don't know who Daniel is. Look at the bookshelf next to it, in addition to the common military books, there are also management books. Even Alan finds two romance novels, but these two novels have been covered with a layer of dust, and it looks like Daniel hasn't touched them for a long time.
At this moment, there was a soft noise in the room, and the voice came from under the desk. When Alan looked, he happened to see the corner of the coat shrinking under the desk. He shook his head, walked over, tapped the table with Qianjun and said, "Come out, if you don't want to die." ”
"Don't kill me, don't kill me!" A man came out from under the table in a wolf manner, raised his hands and said, "My lord's life, the little one is just a handyman working in the castle, and I ask my lord to spare me." ”
Alan glanced at him, this man was beautifully dressed, like the clothes worn by a handyman, and immediately said, "If you don't lie to me, I plan to let you go." Now...... You'd better sue me for who are you? I don't believe it, any handyman here would have the courage to drill into the Viscount's study, let alone the clothes you have on you...... Hey, are the servants in the Viscount's castle so richly dressed? ”
The man finally cried and said with a sad face: "The adult is wise, and he really can't hide it from the adult." My name is Wales and I'm Daniel's cousin. But I'm just a small role, just in charge of some paperwork in the castle. ”
"Oh, Viscount's cousin, it turns out that you are still a big man." Alan looked him up and down and said with a smile: "If that's the case, I think Viscount Daniel will be happy to pay a lot of money to redeem you, right?" ”
"What? No, no, no, I'm really just a little person, and adults want to be just for money. I know where the viscount's vault is, and I'll take you there, where there are many treasures in Daniel's collection. I just beg the adults to spare me, if they give me some more. Hey, that couldn't be better. He smiled dryly, looking greedy for money.
Alan nodded and said, "Okay, you take me to the vault." Of course, the advantage is that you are indispensable, but you are not afraid of being punished by the viscount afterwards? ”
"Of course I just took my stuff and left, and honestly, don't look at my brother as a knight. But he's so picky, I'm paid less than a hundred gold coins a year, and I don't want to do it for a long time! Walspile laughed.
But at this moment, the study was kicked open. First, a young man broke in with a sword: "Who is so bold as to dare to break into my father's study." ”
When he saw Wals, he said "Huh" again: "Uncle Walles, why are you here?" ”
The boy was followed by two guards, one fat and one thin, each with their own characteristics. The aura of these two people is very different, not like ordinary guards, but like the elite strength carefully cultivated by Daniel, and Alan secretly pays attention. When Wales saw the young man, his face changed as if he were flipping through a book, and said, "Ant! Come, my good nephew, and let the two guards behind you take down this damned, filthy intruder and put it to death at once! ”
Alan glanced at him with a smirk, and Wall shuddered and immediately stepped away. Alan looked back at the young man: "It turns out that you are the son of the viscount, Young Master Onte?" Okay, little master, I don't want to hurt you, if you are obedient. ”
"Fart, why are you two still stunned, take down this intruder for me!" Onte shouted, and two guards behind him passed by, pressing towards Allen.
While!
The fat man was carrying a large shield and mace, and he struck it on the shield with a spiked iron rod, making a heavy blow that caught Allen's attention. At the moment when Eren was so distracted, the thin man had disappeared in place. He approached Eren with a blink of an eye, and then slipped into the blind corner of Allen's side of sight, and a pair of short knives slid out of the cuffs, without a trace of wind, and stabbed Allen into the waist.
The cooperation of these two people can be said to be seamless, and the fat man attacks head-on and attracts attention. The thin man took the opportunity to get close and set up a killer. It's a pity that Alan has long passed the stage of capturing the enemy's movements with the naked eye, and since Ante entered the house, he has dissipated his power to form a three-dimensional sensing space. Although I didn't see the thin man's movements, the source force fluctuations left by the thin man's movement were the clearest clues.
So when the thin man saw that the two short knives were about to stab Allen's waist, he suddenly found that the red light under his feet was great. It turned out that the carpet around him and Alan had somehow appeared a round spot of light, and the explosive source power in it was about to erupt like a volcano. The thin man only had time to let out a scream, and his eyes were immediately filled with flames rushing up from the ground! R1058
