Chapter 104 Greetings from Clay Manderly

The six of Clay walked in the shadow of the buildings in the Twin Rivers, and no one recognized them. The plaster on Clay's face covered most of his face, covering his usual white skin.

Of course someone in the Twins remembered his face, but who would associate the honorable Master Clay Manderly with the muddy Frey soldier in front of him?

"Iron, what shall we do next?"

Krissen Mandalay, oh no, it should be Mogus Weishui at this time, asked the young master who was already Elon Dahl.

Satisfied with his performance, Clay put on a vulgar look, hooked Krissen's shoulders, and whispered:

"Let's quickly pass through the Weihe Tower in the middle of the river. There are no people from us in the west, so there is no need to worry about it here."

The team shuttled from one shadow to another, and Clay continued:
"After reaching the east bank, I will take Chrisson and wait for the opportunity to enter the main castle of the Frey family. You four, go to the east wall and observe the situation of the guards at the gate."

"Infiltrate, use the Axi sign flexibly, and use the Frey family's main castle as a signal of chaos. I will find a way to lure some of the guards at the gate, and the rest will be resolved by you."

"If there are too many people, don't force it, use the Kunen shield well, protect yourself, and hold on until the reinforcements arrive."

This is all the orders, it doesn't need to be too complicated, and for the rest, Clay believes that the witcher team he brought up with his own hands will have a good result in the first battle in Westeros.

In the corners of the building, there were Frey soldiers lying down and resting everywhere. It is not surprising that 4000 people hastily gathered in the small Twin River City.

Almost everyone knew the methods of Lord Walder Frey, so the night here was unexpectedly quiet, and not many women's screams or gasps were heard.

Of course, with the exception of a few women's hospitals in Twin River City, this period of time may be the best time for their business.

Pushing away a drunken Frey soldier, Clay and his party finally passed the long bridge across the Green Fork River and came to the eastern castle familiar to Clay.

Looking up, the main castle of the Frey family, located in the center of the eastern castle, was very calm and did not light up too many lights.

Lord Walder Frey is very confident in his city wall. He is sure that more than 1 people in the northern border will have nothing to do with this city wall.

Too confident, my Lord Marquis.

Clay sneered in his heart, and walked towards the core area of ​​the Frey family where there were still faint voices at night.

Unlike last time, Clay Manderly's identity can wander around the castle casually, but now, he is just a soldier of the Frey family summoned from the countryside, and it is impossible for him to directly enter the main castle.

I have to find an opportunity, otherwise, I have to wait until the guards are most relaxed in the middle of the night.

Thinking so, Clay pretended to be a Foyle patrolling soldier, leading Krissen to wander around, while the other four people had already looked towards the direction of the city gate.

From the gate of Lord Frey, many people were carrying supplies at this time. Most of them were ordinary people from the Twin Rivers City, and they were recruited to deliver military supplies or food.

No one expected Lord Walder Frey to send them rewards, because how could the old Marquis care about them?The one who really controls their fate is the young Foyle in the arena who is in charge of this matter.

To be able to arrange such a thing in the middle of the night is probably an unlucky guy with no power or influence, Clay thought.

It was strange, he always felt that someone among those people was looking at him, but the gaze was very dark, and Clay only had a vague feeling, and he was not sure.

However, he couldn't be sure, some people in the transporting team had turbulent waves in their hearts.

The head of the White Sea Guard in the Twin Rivers, Anti Hewen, now pretends to be an ordinary worker, trying to find a way to observe the movements of the Foyles.

The patrolmen played by Clay walked around here several times. Based on the spy's intuition, it still caught the idea of ​​​​Anti Hewen.

After several observations from the corner of his eye, Anti Hewen was convinced that the two Frey soldiers definitely did not come to patrol, and must have other purposes.

Did you meet a colleague?Anti Hewen's mind was running like a fly. He probably knew who else had eyes in this city of twin rivers.

With such a good opportunity, Anti Hewen had to remember what these people looked like, and there would be too much room for manipulation when he locked in people in the future.

Finding an opportunity, he picked up a bag of food, deliberately took a long way around and approached the two patrol soldiers who were pretending to be talking and laughing.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, it almost scared him to death.

How do you look at this face, isn't this Master Clay?

Before Clay looked over, Anti Hewen lowered his head at the speed of light. He couldn't be sure if it was Clay, and he couldn't show any hesitation or communication.

The two passed by, and Anti Hewen heard the voices of Clay and Krissen talking.

Although the content of the words was rambunctious jokes, Anti Hewen was absolutely sure that this was the voice of his young master Clay Mandler.

Recalling the young master's height and hair color again, Anti Hewen's breathing suddenly became short of breath.

Suspected to be a spy + appearance + voice + height and hair color, he is almost sure that the Frey soldier who just passed by is his young master in disguise.

Realizing this, Anti Hewen's first reaction was not happiness, but a nameless anger.

Shouldn't the young master be in the army?What is the operation of these three or two people sneaking into the Twin River City?
What do the adults in the northern border do to eat!Let the young master come in and take the risk himself!
He didn't dare to imagine, at a time when Walder Frey's flag was uncertain and both sides were at war, what would happen if his young master was trapped in the Twin River City.

That's a terrible thing!

The only reason why Anti Hewen didn't ask immediately was that he didn't see the ruby ​​trident ring in Clay's hand, which symbolized the supreme power of the White Sea Guard.

But this is also understandable, disguised as an ordinary soldier, how could it be possible to wear such a ring that only nobles can have.

Putting down the food bag somewhere, Anti Hewen remembered the order the commander had given him when he was in the Wolf's Den in White Harbor. He had already realized that the commander came to the city just for the gate.

At this time, there is no need to complain about the nobles in the northern border. The White Sea Guard's strength in Twin River City must be mobilized immediately to become the commander's sharpest sword.

Now, there are people all around, and it is impossible for him to communicate directly with the commander. If he wants to let Clay notice him, he has to move his face towards him. I hope the commander's memory is not bad, and he can remember that he is who.

After waiting for a while, Anti Hewen found the right opportunity and walked through the route just now, but this time, he held his head high.

Clay has been observing the buildings and soldiers of the Frey family, so he really didn't pay attention to these coolies. However, if he didn't pay attention once, it doesn't mean he didn't pay attention the second time.

When he saw Anti Hewen's face clearly with the torch in his hand, he was just stunned for a moment, and then he reacted immediately.

Passing by again, Clay patted Anti Hewen's waist indiscriminately.

Anti Hewen heard a word that reassured him instantly, and the commander said to him:
"The raging sea."

The voice was very soft, but Anti Hewen was completely relaxed, and the two of them knew each other until midnight.

The overseer of the Frey family left, and the laborers gathered here immediately dispersed, leaving faster than anyone else.

Clay beckoned to Anti Hewen, who was looking at him.

Anti Hewen regained his spirits and followed immediately.

Finding a secluded place with no one there, Clay said with a smile:
"Anti Hewen, I didn't expect to meet you. Originally, I didn't count you in this operation. If something happened, I think you will cooperate spontaneously."

Anti Hewen didn't have much joy on his face. He looked at the Commander, who was wearing the armor of a Frey soldier, and asked with a headache:
"My lord, why don't you follow the army, do you know how dangerous it is?"

Clay knew what he wanted to say, but he didn't have time to listen to it right now. He raised his hand to signal Anti Hewen to shut up, and Clay said:
"Okay, I know the situation of this trip better than you. I have come, and I regret that there is no place to buy medicine."

Now that the White Sea Guard has been contacted, things will be easier, and Clay directly issued the order:
"Anti Hewen, gather all your strength, go to the east gate, hide your weapons, wait for the defenders to move into the city, and launch an attack immediately."

"Remember, the goal is to defend the city gate as much as possible. I have already arranged for the family's cavalry regiment. Once we launch in the city, they will immediately charge towards the Twins."

As if thinking of something again, Clay reminded again:
"Near the city gate, there are four men I brought in. I can see clearly that they should attack before you. But, like me, they are wearing the armor of Frey soldiers. Don't attack them."

Anti Hewen now understands that the plan of cooperating with the outside and inside should really be arranged long ago, so he nodded immediately:

"Understood my lord, I will definitely restrain my people and not hurt them."

However, as soon as these words came out, Clay and the always taciturn Krissen had a strange expression on their faces.

Clay sighed, patted the courageous head of the Twin Rivers City of the White Sea Guard, and said earnestly:
"I'm not afraid of them getting hurt, I'm worried that if your people dare to point their swords at them, they may die in an ugly way."

"..."

Anti Hewen is confused, what do you mean, the Commander means that he can't deal with four people with dozens of people?

He was not convinced, very unconvinced, feeling that he and the White Sea Guard were underestimated by the commander.

But Clay didn't have time to think about what he thought, and continued with his order directly.

"You go now, get ready in advance, and don't worry about what I'm doing."

After reading the worry in Anti Hewen's eyes, Clay grinned:
"Don't worry, your young master, I have a very hard life. The old and new gods will not take me away when they come, as I said."

Pushing him, pushing him from the darkness to the light, Clay signaled that he could act, and he himself, with Chrisson, returned directly to the main castle of the Frey family.

……

Clay knew the layout of the main castle very well. After all, he had been there many times, and he waited until midnight before preparing to do it. It was because there were too many people and the risk of being discovered was too high.

But now, the northern army is stationed outside the city, and they have not moved for a day. These Frey soldiers have been tense all day, and now they are slack.

There were only two people on duty at the gate, there should have been four, but now, the witcher's keen hearing told him that the snoring in the guard room was very heavy.

It's time, Clay and Krissen exchanged glances, and the two followed the shadows, approaching the door a little bit.

Before the two Foyles could react, another two shots of Axi's seal hit their faces.

"You haven't seen me go upstairs, you have been on duty here."

Clay said to the guard soldier.

He didn't intend to kill people, not because of the flood of the Virgin Mary's heart, but because, in this place, the smell of blood and corpses are too obvious signals.

Clay asked:

"Lord Walder Frey and Ser Aenys Frey, are they both in the main building?"

The soldier may not know exactly where the two are, but as the gatekeeper, he still knows who is coming in and who is going out.

The Frey soldier nodded stiffly, indicating that neither of them had gone out.

This would be easy, and Clay wouldn't have to search for someone all over the Twins.

I went all the way in, including the dozing maid, as long as there was a threat to two people, they would always be greeted by the Axii seal. This kind of situation can only be used at night, because there are few people. During the day, Clay just confused a person and was It is useless for people to see it.

By splitting up their inquiries, Clay and Collison eventually pinpointed the location of Aenys Foyle, a 50-something old man in his bedroom.

"Chrissen, you are guarding the door. Someone is coming. If you can't control it, remind me immediately."

Clay told me that the more this happens, the more he must be safe. Many things often collapse suddenly at the last moment.

Krissen nodded, following Master Clay all the way, it was a completely new and exciting experience for him.

Looking at the young master's back, the young guard was filled with reverence.

Clay walked to the door, and the door was locked, but it was not a problem for Clay at all. With a very small sound, Clay quickly fixed the door lock.

Gently open the door, the house is not completely dark, the most obvious light is the flickering candles on the window sill sheltered from the wind.

Clay lifted the curtains on the bed.

A young woman that Clay didn't know was directly knocked out with a knife. If Clay guessed correctly, this woman could be the granddaughter of Aenys Frey.

Clay stood by the window and struck the sleeping Aenys Frey on the forehead with the hilt of his sword.

Suddenly being knocked, Aenys Foyle woke up with a start, staring blankly at Clay standing by his window, he was stunned for five seconds before he could react, just as he was about to yell, a dagger was already in his throat During this time, all his voices were completely blocked.

The candlelight flickered, and Aenys Foyle, who had been with Clay for a while, finally recognized Clay. His eyes suddenly widened, and his face was full of disbelief.

How could Clay Mandalay be here?Could it be that the northern army suddenly attacked in at night?

Aenys Frey was confused.

At this time, he heard the first words that Clay said:

"Lord Aenys Frey, farewell to Neck, Clay Manderly is very glad to see you again."

Listening to the young man's tone, Aenys Frey felt a chill run down his back. He swore that this was the most frightening opening he had ever heard in his life.

His mouth was dry, and Aenys Frey wanted to say something, but nothing came out.

Clay had no interest in listening to his nonsense.

"Lord Aenys Frey, greetings from the Manderly family."

The green rune flashed.

Aenys Frey's self-awareness was frozen.
