Dawn of the Grey Tower
Chapter 53
At night,
in the alley of Zhuoluo Town, cheese and others quietly observe the small building where Heather is suspected to be held. Different from the uninhabited isolation area, there are two pairs of patrolling guards on the edge of this small house, and the front and back doors are also guarded by guards. What''s more, there is a sentinel on the second floor next door.
"It''s hard to do. I''m afraid we won''t have a chance to go into the team." Looking at the almost dead end defense layout, Lyon said.
"It''s really troublesome. The guards here are too strict." Cheese also felt very difficult to see this situation. The number and quality of the guards here exceeded his imagination.
"Well, is there any way?" The blood lion asked himself that he didn''t have the ability to sneak in, so now he has to ask the mage if he has any means.
Cheese thought for a moment, or shook his head. It was too difficult to sneak into the small building without being discovered by these people. What''s more, it''s not clear what''s going on inside the building. Judging from the tightness of the external defense, he tried his best to bypass the external guard, and it''s not impossible to bump into other people''s traps. After careful consideration, the mage decided to give up the idea of sneaking in.
"The defense here is too tight. Let''s go to Baron Gray''s office first." Since there is no way to get in touch with Heather, we have to go to the next target first.
Without saying anything more, Lyon turned and dived into the shadows of those alleys with two men. After the three left, a man came out of the building. He was dressed in a purple robe embroidered with gold patterns and walked into the street in the crowd of a large number of pharmacists and apprentices. When the Knights around saw this man, they stroked their chests and saluted. The man waved casually to the apprentice, and soon a carriage with the mark of the Royal Pharmacist Association drove out of the backyard of the small building. The purple robed man slowly stepped on the carriage. With the coachman''s light drink, the two horses of the cart took off and disappeared at the end of the street.
On the other hand, it is not difficult to find the residence of the pharmacists'' Association. Houses with their emblems are landmarks in Zhuoluo town. According to Lyon, before he left, it used to be the temporary command post of the royal order in chuoluo, but it seems that after the arrival of the pharmacists'' Association, it was set aside to accommodate these pharmacists.
"It''s not right." In the night, cheese said, looking at the distant buildings. Compared with the place where Heather was suspected to be held before, the defense here is much more relaxed. However, it is also very unlikely that there will be hostile forces in Zhuoluo town. Therefore, in addition to guarding the powerful hammer order, other places do not need too many guards.
"What''s the matter?" The other two knew that, so when they saw the sparsely guarded pharmacists'' Association, they didn''t have any doubts like cheese. But out of her constant trust in the mage, Elsa asked about cheese.
"No, nothing. I hope not. " The mage narrowed his eyes, which was his habit when he felt bad premonition. Thanks to the practice of magic, cheese''s way of observing the world is slightly different from that of ordinary people, and this difference can let the mage know something that others don''t notice in a far distance. However, the information obtained by this way of observation is often obscure. Although cheese company is sure what he feels, it can not be used as any substantive evidence to tell other people.
Although cheese said nothing, Lyon and Elsa could clearly feel the mage''s anxiety. The direct evidence of this feeling is that cheese changed his cautious style. He let Lyon sneak in and knocked out a guard. And cheese himself recited a piece of incantation and waved to another guard from afar, and the second unfortunate guard fainted for no reason. Next, the three of them made great strides all the way to stun and tie up the guards in the way. The mage was so unscrupulous that even a few guards who were disturbed because of too much noise were stun by him with unknown magic on the spot. Looking at the guards piled up in the corner of the wall, the Knight Commander and the owner''s wife suspected that cheese had the ability to kill all the guards who had been guarding the second floor building.
"Well, what''s the matter with you?" Stun the last guard, Lyon said to cheese. He was confused by the sudden change of behavior of the other party.
But the mage did not answer the knight''s question, but walked into the building in silence. And perhaps such a high intensity of continuous casting also caused a burden on him. Cheese''s steps were so scattered that he almost fell down once or twice without Elsa''s help. It is obvious that cheese has found something very important to make the always calm mage lose his temper.
Entering the building, the first floor of the building was taken by pharmacists on the spot. All kinds of paper documents were randomly and scattered on the table and the ground. Half opened books and even unfinished food showed that this was not a place to hide secrets. Qi Sima did not stop and did not mean to delay on the first floor. He was surprised at the mess here, regardless of the other two people, and went straight to the second floor.
Considering that there may be people left behind at night, the blood lion and the owner''s wife try to control the volume of noise they make when they move. However, the cheese chef at this time has not considered this point at all. His footstep sounds very loud in the deserted corridor. This made the other two team-mates really sweat. Fortunately, after a long time, no one came to check. It can be seen that there is no one in the building now. In this case, Elsa and Lyon don''t have to think so much about it. They also made great strides to keep up with the mage and the unmanned pharmacist''s residence, which made them curious about the situation here.The second floor of the small building quickly appeared in front of the three people. Compared with the first floor, the number of rooms in this house is much less, and only five or six rooms can be seen from the staircase. Lyon knows that although the number of rooms is relatively small, because the rooms here are basically used as offices for important personnel, the size of each office is considerable. As for the pharmacists, it is estimated that in all likelihood these offices will be converted into temporary laboratories.
The doors of these rooms were hung with bronze locks with fists. Although the guards might have keys on them, they just came in in in a hurry and did not search their belongings. So at the moment, cheese can only frown and look at the copper locks in a daze. If they are placed in the metal locks, he will not be able to hold them. However, the mage has just cast too much magic, and his body is in a weak state. He really has no way to take these locks for the time being.
When cheese was in a hurry, Lyon pressed his shoulder to signal the mage to retreat. Then the knight raised his foot and kicked it on the door. With a tingling burst, Lyon kicked the heavy wooden door down.
"Sometimes it doesn''t take so much trouble to solve problems." Push open the wooden door which has lost the lock lock, said the blood lion.
Although I want to say something, but in order to verify the bad feeling in my heart as soon as possible, cheese still entered the room as quickly as possible. This room, which should be used as a laboratory, came into the eyes of the mage. How can we say the scene In four words, it is empty. This was obviously unreasonable, and Lyon and Elsa, who then entered the room, realized it. Without the order of cheese, the knight opened the other doors in the same way. Most of the rooms were the same as the first one. Except for a few pieces of wooden furniture, there was no paper material left in these rooms. The last room is a special one because there are three bodies in this room besides furniture
Three human bodies.
