Idle game leads to another world

Chapter 322 Poisoning

"Your Highness, it's already lunch time. Please take a rest."

Zola walked into the tent carrying a simple lunch and reminded Viola who was standing in front of the sand table that it was time to rest.

Originally, the job of sneaking into the open city should be left to Zora, but Zora has the job of commanding the Knights of the Guards and cannot leave casually.

"Well, I understand."

Viola didn't force herself too much and found a seat next to her to sit down.

"I wonder how Aldai and the others are doing."

"Although Miss Aldai and Renya are not reassuring, Reina is from Open City and is most familiar with the local topography. I believe there will be good news soon."

After spending a whole morning, Viola and Wendy had already formulated a worst-case scenario siege plan. The navy coming from the Sailing City might be eager to make a contribution and sent several magic communications, indicating that we could attack the city at any time. Come on, as soon as His Highness opens his mouth, he will be bombarded immediately.

But as mentioned before, what Viola wants is a complete open city, especially if the defense facilities cannot be said to be damaged, otherwise it will be difficult to be at a disadvantage in many wars that will come in the future.

After all, her number of soldiers is not large, so she can only rely on defense facilities to hold her back.

After picking up the porridge made from mashed compressed biscuits, Viola only took two bites before Wendy walked into the tent excitedly.

It looks like it should be good news.

"Aldai sent a message just now. They have found an opportunity to annihilate the defending general and the city lord in one fell swoop."

Viola felt no longer hungry after hearing this, and quickly put down her bowl and said:

"when?"

"Tonight, we can take action while the defenders' attention is drawn away."

"Call Hill over immediately. We need her troops to open the city gate, and Greta, so she can arrange supplies for the soldiers. It seems we have to hurry up and change the battle plan."

Zola looked at the forgotten porridge, maybe Viola wouldn't remember its existence for a long time.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

The sun follows its eternal trajectory and falls under the sea in the west, while the moonlight belonging to Sullun, the goddess of the moon, rises little by little from the east, announcing that this land has entered night time.

Although it was already dark, the city's defenses were tighter than during the day when the city was open. There were more soldiers guarding the city walls, and even a curfew was imposed throughout the city, prohibiting civilians from appearing on the streets.

At night, a huge bonfire is lit on the city wall of the open city, and a huge rotating glass mirror is erected behind the bonfire.

This stuff wasn't cheap, large pieces of glass were difficult to make, and the price of each mirror was enough to bankrupt a wealthy family.

These mirrors reflected firelight and were turned by soldiers, scanning every corner outside the city like searchlights. Anyone trying to get close would be discovered.

The ballistas, trebuchets, and salvo crossbows that fire multiple arrows at once on the city walls are also in a state of readiness, ready to deal with possible attacks at any time.

But unlike the tension on the city wall, the only castle in the center of the city seemed brightly lit and even had a bit of a luxurious atmosphere.

Carriages came from all corners of the city, and people dressed in luxurious clothes came to attend the banquet.

The front line was under constant artillery fire, and the rear was also under continuous artillery fire.

This seems very lazy, but it's not entirely arrogant.

After all, Kaikai City has never been attacked since its establishment. If the city lord had not surrendered a few months ago, Subia Demon Kingdom would not have been able to capture it in a short period of time. It is likely that they would have persisted until the materials in the city were completely exhausted. It will take at least several years before they surrender.

The main purpose of the city lord's hosting of this banquet was actually to flatter him.

The defeated army that retreated from Qihang City ran all the way back to Kaimen City. Every one of them was disgraced. From the soldiers to the generals, their morale was low.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the city lord wanted to get to know more military officials in the Demonic Kingdom of Subia, so as to consolidate his position after surrender.

Of course, he has also heard that it was Princess Viola who defeated the army of Subia Demon Kingdom. He held a banquet to find out. He told them that you have to guard my open city. If you lose this place, you will lose it in the future. It can never be taken back.

A large number of distinguished guests came, and the servants in the castle were almost overwhelmed. The corridors were full of their figures passing by in a hurry.

And in this chaotic environment, it is not a problem for a few people to sneak in quietly.

Reina put on a maid outfit, brought back the empty plate with impeccable gestures, and placed it next to the dishwashing maid in the kitchen.

Then, when no one was noticing, she slipped into the servant's room not far from the kitchen.

Since the servants in the castle are too busy to touch the ground, no one will come here for the time being, so it is a safe place to stay.

Aldai and Renya, who also put on maid uniforms and sneaked in, but didn't do any work, are waiting here.

Seeing Reina come in, Aldai immediately asked:

"How's the situation?"

"Security is very strict. Even if you are using your identity as a maid, you cannot enter the venue."

Rena opened the drawer, took out a piece of paper and drew a sketch on it.

"The maid can only go to the second floor. After putting down the food, there will be a dedicated person responsible for checking whether it is poisonous, and then others will send it to the banquet hall on the third floor. I carefully observed the structure, whether it is from outside or from inside the castle, It’s impossible to pass through the road silently.”

Rhaena only glanced at the sketch and then continued to eat the roasted lamb leg. This kind of meticulous work of stealth combat was not compatible with her. Anyway, she could be called when a fight was needed.

"Invisibility and transformation..."

"It is also impossible to get through. The guards are holding detection wands. We will be discovered. Moreover, the defensive transformation biological array in the castle is still running. I dare not get too close, but I noticed that there are many people guarding."

As long as there is a chance to let Olde and Reina get close to the banquet hall, they will be sure to catch the group of senior officials who are eating and drinking.

But the problem now is that they can't get close. Once they are exposed too early, the other party will definitely run away. At that time, it will be troublesome to find another opportunity to catch them all.

Viola is still waiting for their signal. If the action here is successful, the siege will begin outside, and Melanie's resistance organization will also start to act synchronously.

Time will not wait for anyone. They need a more practical and reliable method.

"Why think so much? Can't I solve it by taking a breath of dragon breath?"

Seeing that the two were frowning, Rhaena gave a completely brainless suggestion.

"There is a flying-forbidden barrier in Kaimen City, so you can't fly at all."

"Really?"

Renya had never thought about this, and then said:

"Then poison it. I ate poisonous plants when I was extremely hungry before, and it made me have diarrhea for several days."

"Miss Renya, poison is difficult to work on high-level demons. At most, it will only cause slight paralysis."

"No, poisoning is a good option."

Aurdai suddenly said:

"I have a toxin here, which should also be effective for high-level demons."

"Where did you find it?"
