MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 53 Empty shell
Night, in the town of Zhuoliu
The cheese and others hiding in the alley silently observed the small building suspected of holding Heather. Unlike the isolated area where no one cares, there are two pairs of guards patrolling the edge of this small house, and there are guards at the front and back doors. Even more troublesome is the presence of a sentinel on the second floor next door.
"It's not easy to handle, I'm afraid we have no chance to enter this lineup." Looking at the defense layout with almost no dead ends, Lyon said.
"It's really troublesome, and the guards here are too strict." The cheese also felt very difficult to see this situation. The guards here both exceeded his imagination in terms of quantity and quality.
"How, is there a way?" The blood lion asked himself that he didn't have the ability to dive in, so now in this situation, he can only ask the mage if he has any means.
The cheese thought a little, but shook his head. It was too difficult to dive into this small building without being discovered by these people. What ’s more, the situation inside the building is still unclear. In terms of rigor, it takes great effort to bypass the external defense, and as a result, it is not impossible to bump into one's trap. After careful consideration, the mage decided to temporarily give up the idea of sneaking in here.
"The defense here is too strict. Let's go to the office of Baron Gray." Since there is no way to get in touch with Heather, then we can only go to the next goal.
Without saying anything, Lyon turned and led two people into the shadows of those alleys again. And just after the three people left, a man walked out of the building. He was wearing purple robes embroidered with golden patterns, and walked to the street under the crowd of apprentices of pharmacists. The knights around saw the man consciously caressing his chest. The man waved his apprentice casually, and soon a carriage marked with the Kingdom Pharmacists Association exited the backyard of the small building. The Zipao slowly walked into the carriage, and as the driver drank lightly, the two horses pulled the carriage. Kaibu disappeared at the end of the street with a carriage.
On the other hand, finding the pharmacist ’s residence is not a hassle, and houses with flags embroidered with their emblems are considered landmarks in Zhuoliu Town. According to Lyon, before he left, this used to be the temporary command post of the Kingdom Knights in Zhuoliu Town, but it seems that after the arrival of the Pharmacists Association, it was vacated here to house these pharmacists.
"Not quite right." In the night, the cheese looked at the building in the distance. Compared with the place where heather was suspected to be held, the defense here is much lax, but think about it, it is unlikely that hostile forces will appear in the current town of Zhuoliu, so in addition to guarding the powerful Hammer Knights, There is really no need for too many guards elsewhere.
"What's the matter?" The other two also knew the truth, so when they saw the pharmacists' garrison guarding the sparsely guarded station, they didn't have any doubts like cheese. But out of her constant trust in the mage, Elsa asked about the cheese.
"No, it's nothing. I hope it's not what I thought." The mage narrowed his eyes. This was his habit when he felt a bad hunch. Thanks to the practice of magic, the way the cheese observes the world is slightly different from that of ordinary people, and this difference allows the mage to know things that others cannot perceive further away. However, the information obtained by this observation method is often obscure. Although the cheese determines what it feels, it cannot be used as substantive evidence for others.
Although the cheese said nothing, both Lyon and Elsa could obviously feel the Master ’s anxiety. The direct evidence of this feeling is the cautious style before the cheese changed. He directly let Lyon sneak in and stunned a guard. And the cheese himself meditation on a spell, and then waved at another guard, the second hapless guard fainted inexplicably. Then the three of them marched all the way, stunned the guards who were blocking the road. The mage was so unscrupulous, and even a few guards who were shocked because of too much movement were rushed by him with unknown magic on the spot. Stun. Looking at the guards piled up in the corner, both the knight and the lady boss suspected that the cheese was capable of killing all the guards who had guarded the second floor building.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" The stunned last guard, Lyon said to the cheese. The other party's sudden change of behavior confuses him.
The mage did not answer the knight's question, but walked silently into the building. And perhaps such a high-strength continuous casting also imposed a burden on him. The pace of the cheese seemed extremely scattered, and even once or twice, Elsa almost fell if he did not step forward. Being able to make the always calm mage so unconscious, obviously the cheese found something very important.
Entering the building, the first floor of this building was used by the pharmacists on the copywriting office. Various paper documents were randomly and randomly placed on the table and the ground, and half of the books opened even had unfinished food. All shows that this is not a place where secrets will be hidden. Sima kept nonstop and didn't mean to delay on the first floor, regardless of whether the other two people were still surprised by the clutter here, and walked straight to the second floor.
Considering that there may be left-behind personnel at night, the blood lion and the boss lady try to control the volume of the noise they emit when they are acting, but the cheese at this time has not considered this at all, and his footsteps are in the unmanned corridor. It seemed unusually loud. This made the other two teammates really sweat a lot. Fortunately, no one had seen it for a long time. It can be seen that there is really no one in this building. In this case, Elsa and Lyon do not have to think so much, and they quickly took a big step to keep up with the mage, the unmanned pharmacist station, which also caused them great curiosity about the situation here.
The second floor of the small building soon appeared in front of three people. Compared with the first floor, the number of rooms in this house was much smaller, and there were only five or six rooms seen from the stairwell. Lyon knows that although the number of rooms is relatively small because the rooms here are basically used as offices for important personnel, UU reading books www.uukanshu. Com, so the area of each office is very considerable. As for the pharmacists who have settled in, it is estimated that eight or nine of these offices have been transformed into temporary laboratories.
The doors of these rooms were covered with fist-locked brass locks. Although the guards might have keys on them, the rush of a few people came in and did not search the guards ’belongings. So at this moment, the cheese can only frown at these bronze locks, if they are placed on these metal locks, he still ca n’t help him, but the mage has just over-applied, and his body is in a weak state. There is no way for these locks.
Just as the cheese was anxious, Lyon pressed his shoulder to signal the mage to retreat, and then the knight lifted a foot and kicked **** the door, followed by a burst of numbing scalp, heavy The wooden door was kicked down by Lyon with a kick.
"Sometimes it doesn't need to be so troublesome to solve the problem." Push the wooden door that has lost the lock, Blood Lion said.
Although I wanted to say something, but in order to verify the bad hunch as soon as possible, the cheese entered the room as quickly as possible. This room, which should be used as a laboratory room, is in the eyes of the mage. What does the scene say ... In four words, it is empty. This was obviously unreasonable, and Lyon and Elsa who entered the room later also realized this. Without the command of the cheese, the captain of the knight opened the other doors in the same way. The situation in most of the houses was the same as the first one, except for a few pieces of wooden furniture that were already there. Did not stay. The situation in the last room is special, because there are three corpses besides furniture in this room ...
Three human bodies.
