Planeswalker My Plane War

Chapter 488: Prison Robbery 8
Zhang Cheng led the team, and a group of people walked into the room.

The danger of this trap has already been mentioned by Zhang Cheng, so everyone carefully measured the distance and looked at the four torches from time to time.

The torch is controlled by the mechanism and may fall at any time.

But Zhang Cheng didn't care, but walked all the way to the front thick wooden door.The door was sealed.

The prison robbers had already prepared for this, and some of them carried heavy axes—it was too cumbersome to cut people, and it didn't work well.But cutting down trees and doors is very useful.

The one with the ax started to hack the door, while the others stood around, waiting to change hands. Everyone carefully paid attention to the torches in the distance.Once the torch falls and ignites effectively, it can only retreat temporarily.

In half an hour or an hour, the oil will be burned out, just come back at that time.

"Zhang Cheng, it seems that something is wrong." Alexei quietly pulled Zhang Cheng aside.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Cheng asked coldly.

It's strange to say that Zhang Cheng is still the same Zhang Cheng, but now that Alexei meets his eyes, he always feels a strong uneasiness.It was a kind of uneasiness that seemed to come from the depths of his soul, reminding him that this person was quite dangerous.

Zhang Cheng in the past would not give people this feeling - he is like a weed in the grass, ordinary people will not take a second look.

"Didn't you say that the torch..."

"If this kind of mechanism has not been maintained for a long time, it is normal for it to be damaged." Zhang Cheng replied. "And maybe we moved too fast just now, and the rear didn't get the warning in time. Maybe the person who was supposed to be in charge of activating this trap didn't have the chance to activate it at all. No one activated the trap, so it means nothing."

While speaking, the door-chopper was already tired, and another person was replaced to handle the axe.And the door has been cut a big hole.

In the meeting room, everyone was talking about it, because the scene promised by the Earl never happened.

In fact, the mechanism had been activated a long time ago, but for some reason, the torches hung obediently on high places and refused to fall down to light the surroundings.

The count's face has become ugly. "What's going on?" he asked his men.

"My lord... this..." The person who was being questioned was already sweating on his forehead. "It may be that this mechanism has been set up for too long and has not come in handy..."

"Didn't I ask you to maintain it every month?"

"But... this kind of thing is very difficult to control. Maybe it was just an accident, and some debris fell from the top, jamming the gears inside..."

The earl's brows were deeply frowned into an expression representing "extreme displeasure".Anyone who is familiar with the earl's personality knows that this subordinate may see the sun of tomorrow, but he will definitely not see the sun of the day after tomorrow.

In the mirror, the group of intruders took a moment to tear down the wooden door blocking their way.Then he rushed in, and the guards behind rushed up in panic, outnumbering the crowd, and were easily chopped down by Alicia.They were knocked down so quickly that the others didn't have much of a chance to do it.

The earl was extremely displeased.Although I knew that these intruders had been determined to be dead in the end, I still felt very uncomfortable.

In fact, there are plenty of guards in the dungeon, several times more than the intruders.If the two sides make it clear that the chariots and horses are fighting head-on, there will be a great advantage.But he couldn't stand it. For this performance effect, in order to pretend to be a B, he deliberately dispersed his troops.The end result is what it looks like now: the invaders win every battle instead.

"...This is Aldo, our warden, a veteran hero. Although he is older and his explosive power is not as strong as when he was young, he has more experience... With his five best subordinates, he can stop Live intruders?"

The host continued to introduce the next level of battle.

There are no traps here, just real combat.

There is a door ahead, and the door is Aldo.Holding a two-handed axe, he stood here with five of his men, waiting quietly.

This man named Aldo was not young, in his fifties, with gray and white hair.But there is a calm temperament on his body.

The five subordinates were on the side, armed with various melee weapons, ready to fight the invaders.

But the battle hasn't started yet.Because the intruders are searching and moving forward, the speed is not fast.

"What is the principle of this magic?" In the conference room, someone in the audience took advantage of this brief gap to whisper. "I have never seen this kind of spell before."

"What...you haven't participated? I participated in a similar one, which was also held by the Earl. But it was not as ups and downs as this time. The first trap of the intruder lost half..."

"Oh, that's what it is...but how did this happen?"

"Simple." A voice sounded.But it was the guest who had always been independent and made the earl quite unhappy.The guest heard the two men discussing privately. "This is a method of binding life. It is to bind the magic node to a specific guard. After the guard dies, the magic effect will dissipate in a short time. If you don't believe me, you can ask the magic in charge over there Master, let's see if he can reproduce the previous scenes."

His voice was very loud, as if no one was there.Even the magician responsible for maintaining the spell heard it.

The latter could only smile awkwardly: "This guest is really insightful. This kind of spell is originally for military use. In this way, you can see what's going on a little farther away."

"I see..." There was a burst of exclamation from the crowd.But the earl next to him had a very gloomy face.Fortunately, the light was dim, and no matter how ugly his face was, it was hard to tell.

In fact, under normal circumstances, this is not an offense, it is nothing more than showing off one's own knowledge.But in this particular case, the earl was further upset.As the master, he couldn't get angry for a while, but this didn't stop him from finding a follower, and asked his subordinates to find out who the arrogant guest was.

Forget it today, even if it's based on my own face, I can't do it.But in the future, I can definitely give him some small shoes to wear.After all, he is the lord of a city, and there are always opportunities like this.

There are no strict laws these days, and it is not difficult for a lord to find trouble.

At this moment in the mirror, the battle has already begun.Almost everyone felt that no matter what the outcome of this battle was, the attackers would never be able to get too much money.The watchman is at a disadvantage in numbers, but has an advantage in terrain.

It's a pity that things didn't develop as people expected. Although Aldo was a veteran hero fighter, he suffered a big loss right away when he started fighting this time.

Because after the intruder broke the door, he didn't rush in directly to fight hand-to-hand as everyone expected.

In fact, they refused to even enter the door, but shot indiscriminately with the muskets and crossbows they had brought or seized before.

In fact, bows and crossbows are okay, and everyone knows the power of muskets—even the best armor can't stop musket bullets.Fair enough, too, since musket fire is slow, downright slow.In addition, the effective range is also short.

But at this time, none of these issues are a problem.

Aldo originally planned to wait for work with ease, using the narrow characteristics of the door to be outnumbered.But because of the opponent's tactics, his plan went bankrupt.The other party didn't intend to come in at all, but let the companion holding the captured giant shield block the door.

That kind of shield, even Aldo, who is a hero, can't break it.

This was a one-sided attack without suspense at all. After a few bullets, when Aldo and several of his subordinates were either dead or injured and had to retreat, those people launched a pursuit.The two sides have only entered the stage of real hand-to-hand combat.

In the image of the mirror, the prison warden named Aldo was outnumbered and played very beautifully.He is old and has rich combat experience, making full use of all the conditions around him to resist.

But in the end he was knocked to the ground.

The old warden fell to the ground. Although he was not mortally wounded, the blade was now pressed against his throat, making him understand that his resistance was meaningless.

This is not a shame, because before the final battle with Alicia, who is also a hero, he has been shot three times.This injury greatly affected his strength.Not only that, Alicia did not fight alone, and a group of subordinates assisted him to besiege him (in this case, Alicia would not insist on fighting alone no matter how honorable she was).

If he can still win under such a bad situation, he is not a hero, but a legend or even higher.

"Surrender!" Alicia said.If the warden can be subdued, then the rest of the battle is unnecessary.

"I refuse." Aldo replied without fear, facing Jianfeng.

"Why?" Zhang Cheng approached and asked.

"I only pledge my allegiance to the lord of Lulian City!" Aldo replied.

Alicia swung her long sword to kill him, but was blocked by Zhang Cheng.

"You only pledge your allegiance to the lord of Lulian City?" Zhang Cheng asked.

"Yes!" Aldo replied firmly.He originally thought that he would receive a fatal blow immediately, but he didn't expect it to be the mocking smile on Zhang Cheng's face.He didn't let Alicia do it.

"What?" Alicia looked at Zhang Cheng puzzled.Along the way, Zhang Chengren blocked the killing Buddha and blocked the killing Buddha, showing no intention of holding back his hands at all.Having said all this, what else do you want?
"He's still useful." Zhang Cheng explained. "Alesia, do you want to save your father and leave?"

"Ah? Are there other options?" Alicia couldn't understand what Zhang Cheng meant for a moment.She looked at Zhang Cheng, but unexpectedly found an indescribable smile on Zhang Cheng's face.

It was the first time she saw such an expression on Zhang Cheng's face.But Alicia immediately told herself that it was because of the battle just now.During combat a person will often display completely different emotions than normal.For example, violent or ruthless.

"Yes." Zhang Cheng said. "If you move forward now, you can save your father from leaving. The future is hard to say."

"I will save him no matter what!" Alicia replied firmly.

"There is another choice." Zhang Cheng maintained that smile that made Alicia a little scared. "Do nothing now, and then your father can be promoted one step higher."

"Promotion?" Let alone Alicia, everyone was confused by Zhang Cheng's words.Even Aldo on the ground is like this.

"Well, he...has a chance to become an earl." Zhang Cheng said.

"How is it possible!" Alicia couldn't believe such a thing. "What needs to be done? Also, the position of the earl... Where is the earl?" Even in a remote and desolate place, the position of an earl is very attractive, so she couldn't help asking.

"No need to do anything." Zhang Cheng said. "Of course it's here," he pointed to his feet. "The Earl of Lulian City."

"You mean...my father will become an earl without us doing anything?"

"Yes." Zhang Cheng replied. "We must say what to do, that is, from now on, let's not move forward or leave, just spend a little time here."

"How did you know?"

"Being subject to certain restrictions, I can't elaborate. I can only say," Zhang Cheng said. "A god gave me this hint."

If it was a different person and a different situation, Alicia probably wouldn't believe it at all.

She knew best what was going on in her family: a down and out baron who had just lost his lands.Upgrade to Earl?how is this possible!

Moreover, Lian City has a lord, and this lord is Earl Gellert.Even if he is dead, he still has sons and daughters. After his sons and daughters are dead, he also has other brothers, sisters, seven aunts, eight aunts, and a group of other relatives who cannot be separated.If all these relatives are extinct...then Lulian City probably won't exist anymore.Her family has nothing to do with Count Gellert in the slightest.

In any case, it is not her family's turn to get involved in Lulian City.

"Go forward, you can save your father from leaving, stop, and your father can become the lord of Lulian City!" Zhang Cheng said.

Absurd, completely illogical statement.But if it came out of Zhang Cheng's mouth, it would have inexplicable credibility.

Alicia looked at Zhang Cheng, who was waiting for her to choose.But does this question require a choice?
In the meeting room far away, the mirror reflected the situation in the dungeon.For some unknown reason, the intruders stopped.Earl Gellert had reason to believe that this was because they found that the way back was cut off.

These rats realized that the way back was cut off, and as expected, they immediately lost their desire to attack, obviously not knowing what to do for a while.

But this dungeon really only has one entrance and exit.

It's interesting to say that a mouse is a mouse after all, and the two ends of the first mouse are the norm.

If they kept going, the Earl had no other choice.It's just opening the gate to release the water.Cleaning up afterward would be a hassle, but he didn't want the rats to succeed—even if it was a false success.But now... well, it's pretty fun and entertaining.

When he was in a better mood, a follower hurried over from outside.The count remembered that he had just ordered this officer to inquire about the origin of the unwelcome guest.This is double happiness.
