Chapter 86 Guard Level Doll

After dark, Jiang Yuan went to the weapons warehouse and dug out a pair of light armor and a black cloak, as well as a hand crossbow and thirty crossbow arrows. According to the standards of this world, his physical fitness was a little worse than that of a guard, but With peak swordsmanship to rely on, as long as he doesn't face a general level head-on, there won't be much of a problem.

"Uncle, are you planning to find the doll?" Chitong stood guard at the door of the weapons depot.

"You know something about Bafang." Jiang Yuan said.

"Father asked me to try it, but it failed. In a few years, it might be Heitong's turn." There was no regret in Chitong's words. She didn't like to manipulate other people's weapons.

Jiang Yuan began to wear light armor. Equipment was one of the important factors that separated the professional soldiers from the rabble.

"Uncle, if you die outside, you won't be able to eat meat." Chitong suddenly asked.

"I heard such unlucky words before leaving. It seems that I have never beaten you in the past." Jiang Yuan put on his cloak and walked out of the weapons warehouse.

Chitong shook her head, "So please come back safely in order to eat meat."

"There are better things in the world than meat."

"Liar."

"Unknown things won't impact your fixed ideas until they arrive. You can only make comparisons after you have been exposed to them."

"I don't understand, but it must be rhetoric."

Jiang Yuan suddenly felt that it was difficult to communicate. He left the little girl and went downstairs. The valet Coson had already prepared the horses. According to tradition, valets of nobles were rarely of the opposite sex, but this rule was not the same in the empire at this period.

"Lord Baron, be careful along the way."

"How long does it take to get from the Berkshires to the seaside fiefdom."

"It would take about seven days on horseback."

"understood."

Jiang Yuan got on the horse. If something didn't happen after seven days, this valet could be used.

After leaving the castle, Jiang Yuan reined in his horse and stopped to look around. The sniper point and the observation point overlapped to some extent. He did not forget that there were rumors against him.

……

On a hilltop to the west of Tius Castle, the White Horse River flows not far ahead. There are dense forests nearby. After cutting down fixed trees, you can artificially create a dark sentry environment.

"It seems like someone came out, riding a horse. The castle lights can't illuminate the outside, so it's impossible to identify him."

"A messenger, or a secret spy? Spread the news and let the people inside test it out based on the situation."

Two men in black hunting attire were talking quietly.

Nobles need to invest a lot of resources in training secret sentries. They select and train children with gifted vision from an early age. They also have to ensure a supply of special food during their growth. In order to cope with emergencies, secret sentries must possess a certain amount of force, or at least be able to protect themselves.

Correspondingly, when performing tasks, their power is not small. After all, returning to ask for instructions from superiors is likely to let the opportunity slip away.

Under the moonlight, one of the men in hunting attire took out a pen and paper and started writing, while the other started to check the sparrows. Winter was coming, and some sparrows could not find food in the wild. It was not unusual for some sparrows to fly to the castle.The evening wind blew the fallen leaves, and the rustling sound was far and near. The hand of the man in the hunting suit suddenly stopped after writing, and a strong sense of crisis arose. But the next second, before he could react, the tip of the knife penetrated his hand. Neck.

The deceased marched accurately to avoid the bones and cut off the arteries, and drew the knife out, blood sputtering, suffocation and coldness enveloped the man, and then Jiang Yuan gave the man a heavy kick, sending him on his way ahead of time.

Another secret sentry wanted to retreat, but when he saw the enemy raising his crossbow, he decisively waved his dagger and started charging. If his back was exposed at this distance, the only result would be death.

In the moonlight, Jiang Yuan slashed horizontally with a knife. The blade seemed to be flowing with cold light. The whistle evaded sideways, but the enemy's attack followed him like a shadow. The blades kept intersecting. From a distance, several clusters of sparks bloomed in the dark night. After a few seconds, , Marching of the Dead pierced An Shao's heart. If the strength of the puppet wasn't related to the integrity of the body, the second knife would have been enough to cut open the enemy's chest.

"Two bodyguards."

Jiang Yuan raised his long knife upright, and the tip of the knife flashed with purple-black light. The two corpses stood up again. The puppets were completed. As the limbs of the puppets moved freely, a feeling of fatigue like a slight cold emerged.

"Since it has no impact on the body, it can be accepted."

The purple-black light shone again, and the two dolls disappeared, finally blending into the space inside the sword of March of the Dead: Eighth Room.

Jiang Yuan stuffed the letter written by the secret whistle, then let the letter bird go, turned around and left the mountain to return to the castle. Of course, he cleaned up the internal informants before leaving.

……

Late at night, bright lights were lit around the castle grounds. Male and female servants, cooks, waiters, housekeepers' deputies, and guards on duty, totaling more than 300 people, were waiting on the grounds.

Two knights led an elite centurion to keep alert with crossbows. Count Theus stood at the front with red and black pupils and a serious face.

Half an hour later, Knight Rodon came out of the castle and went straight to the earl to report.

When everyone was summoned, the secret agent had already processed the letters and the letter birds, but during the receiving process, it was necessary to develop a relationship with the letter birds so that they could remember the place and object of communication. Such tools and traces were difficult to clean up in a very short time. , just need to dig deeper.

After receiving the earl's instructions, Knight Rodon pulled four people out of the crowd. One of them planned to resist. Unfortunately, the knight-level wore heavy armor, and his ability to fight in single combat increased sharply. The spy's dagger did not even leave any obvious traces on the armor. He turned around and was punched to death by Knight Rodon.

"Lord Earl, I just want to feed them! You can all testify that you usually get broken grains from me."

Among the remaining three people, there was a young and beautiful maid who was crying loudly. The other two began to find reasons when they saw this.

"It is indeed possible. It's up to you to decide." Theus asked, tilting his head.

Jiang Yuan pondered for a moment. Although he could use a puppet secret whistle to test, for example, after summoning it, pretending to be a living person, and saying something like "You and your companions can only live one life", you can basically confirm the authenticity. After all, the maid's desire to live is not the same. The look of being willing to be given the head.

But there is a purple-black light when the March of the Dead is activated, and the outside world also knows about this Teigu. He has to run a long way before coming back. It is very abrupt, and it is easy for smart people to guess the truth. At that time, the attention on Baron Noel will rise to a new level. level.

The problem is that he doesn't have a powerful puppet yet and is at a relatively fragile stage. The most important thing is that he doesn't want to run around like a fool.

The way to solve this problem is to predict, that is, ignore the feeling of fatigue and come back directly with the Whistle Doll, and persist in the entire search process.

It is expected that the earl will not ask him this question. It is the basic operation of the nobles to deal with traitors without letting them go.

After thinking briefly and staring at the maid's expression for a while, Jiang Yuan replied coldly: "If you don't believe me, kill her."

Count Theus had no accident, only the hidden spies were in danger. He didn't care whether he killed him or let him go.
