Soul Echo

The screams disturbed the entire castle without any accident, and Zhong Ye could hear the sounds coming from all directions of the castle.

In this way, his purpose has been achieved.

Zhong Ye didn't draw out her weapon and walked towards the stairs with Lilian who didn't know what was going on.

The screaming servant slowly lowered his voice, staring blankly at the tall silhouette walking past him without even looking at him.

——【Zhong Ye What is this trying to do? Directly press the current lord? ]

——[But didn't he say that some evidence is missing? ]

——【Can you not act without evidence? even more how, isn't Zhong Ye's actions now just for new evidence? ]

There was no accident either, and the barrage started to quarrel again.

Lilian glanced at the barrage, and then turned her attention to the back of Zhong Ye.

She doesn't know what Zhong Ye wants to do now, but she can feel that he is very relaxed. Does this mean that he has already figured out the whole picture of these things?

At this moment, Zhong Ye suddenly said: "Lillian, get ready for battle, I may need your help later."

Lilian's spirits lifted , and immediately put all guesses and thoughts behind.

"Yes!"

She immediately took out the hand crossbow from her backpack, untied the rope buckle of her waist bag, and then gently pressed her right hand on the hilt of the sword. He stepped out from Zhong Ye's side and watched the movements all around.

Speaking of which, this seems to be the first time she really fought side by side with Zhong Ye!

Lilian pursed her lips slightly, and Lilian's eyes lit up with fighting spirit.

The army of the lord often lives in the castle. Of course, with the development of the times, the design of the castle has changed, and the professional soldiers have gradually become independent and have a barracks outside the city.

But Chillon Castle has been inherited for hundreds of years. The design of this castle has not changed with the progress of the times. Soldiers still live in the castle. They can only leave the castle and reunite with their families when they are on vacation. Their daily task is to train, guard and maintain weapons.

Now that Zhong Ye and the others broke into the castle directly, they would definitely be blocked by soldiers.

——just no one knows, this is exactly what Zhong Ye wants!

There was a series of continuous footsteps ahead, Zhong Ye did not remind Lillian, but continued to walk forward.

They were about to go up the stairs, but at the corner of the corridor ahead, a few brawny men ran out. Lilian instantly clenched her crossbow, and as soon as she lifted it, Zhong Ye held it back with her backhand. .

Doubtful looking up at Zhong Ye's face, he saw that he was walking past several brawny men.

At this time, Lilian also noticed that the men were not holding weapons at all, but only some wooden sticks, brooms and the like in their hands.

Watching the enemy approaching, several men glanced at each other hesitantly, confirmed each other's thoughts, clenched the teeth, turned to Zhong Ye and roared, and swarmed up.

The pace is loose, terrified and over-cautious, without the slightest bit of blood and courage to speak of, it is only possible to launch an attack with a bit of energy...

Zhong Ye sighed and should have continued The right leg that stepped forward suddenly changed from slow to fast, bang slammed the air, and hit the two people running in front with lightning speed. The two people's bodies stagnated suddenly, and they suddenly flew backwards, directly knocking over. later people.

When they were knocked down, Zhong Ye stopped paying attention to them and instead took Lillian up the stairs to the upper floor.

More and more people were moving, and many and messy footsteps stepped on the floor, making a burst of echoes. These sounds were captured by Zhong Ye, allowing him to analyze one by one where the owner of the footsteps was. location and the direction they will be heading.

"——There are enemies!"

There was a loud roar from behind, which made Lillian slightly startled, and hurriedly turned her head and looked towards her, and then she remembered that those people had been killed. Zhong Ye defeated.

Zhong Ye is able to grasp the strength of his shot, those people should be impossible to chase after him.

When they turned back, they had already reached the second floor.

I saw a dagger stabbing from the side, Lillian's eyes widened, and she saw Zhong Ye's left hand instantly change from stillness to movement, hitting the wrist holding the dagger.

The dagger flew into the air, and Zhong Ye's clenched left hand immediately released, grabbed his wrist, and pulled the owner of the wrist over.

The soldier who attacked Zhong Ye didn't feel the pain in his wrist yet.

"pu! ”

The soldier's eyes bulged, his saliva spewed out with the air in his lungs, his body suddenly lost strength, and he fell to the ground.

Flying daggers, grappling, knee-struck, everything happened in just one second, the horrific mood just rose from Lily's heart, and it was suppressed before it had time to spread.

Raising his hand to catch the falling dagger, he threw it back, the dagger swept across the corridor and inserted into the muzzle of the musket standing at the other end of the corridor, and the soldier holding the musket just pulled the trigger, The barrel of the gun exploded.

"Ah!"

The soldier let out a scream and squatted down, clutching his injured arm.

However, only one soldier was injured by Zhong Ye's Flying Sword. Besides him, there were three other soldiers standing at the end of the corridor with their guns ready to shoot.

Seeing them, Zhong Ye couldn't help shouting the head.

The chaotic position and lack of preparation made it impossible to stop him.

Bang! boom! boom!

Three muskets fired one after another. The soldiers lifted their sights from the sights and looked towards the distance, brow beaded with sweat, but saw a straight knife in front of the man, with no injuries on his body.

"Lillian, help me watch my back."

After putting this sentence down, Zhong Ye stepped forward.

Stomping on the floor, slowly increasing the speed, moved towards the three soldiers running over.

The girl took the opportunity to jump out of the stairs and raised her crossbow to aim at the empty corridor behind Zhong Ye.

Looking at the strong man rushing towards him, the three soldiers felt a little weak in their hands and feet, and their trembling arms kept trying to reload the ammunition, but because of their nervousness, the reloading speed was slower. .

Before they had time to load the bullet into the gun, Zhong Ye came to them, knocked them down one after another, and then looked towards the soldier who was squatting on the ground with injured hands, saying: " Tell me, where is your master."

"No, I don't know..." The fearful soldier shook his head hurriedly, his voice trembling, "I don't know, I really don't know!"

p>

"I don't know..." Zhong Ye chuckled and turned to leave.

Seeing him leave, the soldier sat down on the ground with his butt down, his eyes down, looking at the ground, and gasping for breath.

"Come on, go upstairs."

Going behind Lillian, patted her shoulders, Zhong Ye walked towards the stairs.

The girl withdrew her gaze from the empty corridor in disappointment, followed the teacher's footsteps, and climbed the stairs.

Because it was built on a lake island, the area of ​​Fort Chillon is not large, and it was built hundreds of years ago. At that time, the construction technology was not as developed as it is today, so the castle only has three floors. .

Zhong Ye heard that many people gathered on the third floor, outside a room, and knew that it was where the lord was.

The words he just said were meant to be heard by others, to make them think he was here for the lord.

"Lilian, what do you think about the old lord having an 'illegitimate child'?"

When walking up to the third floor, Zhong Ye suddenly spoke, asking to keep The vigilant Lilian froze for a moment.

Why are you talking about this at a time like this?

After hesitating for a while, Lillian asked back: "teacher, do you want to ask me, do you think this 'illegitimate child' really exists?"

Zhong Ye shook his head laughed , "No, I mean, every time the old lord goes to see his 'illegitimate child', he has to bring a large group of guards."

"It's not that he's trying to cover up with hunting. To see the illegalimate child?" Lillian's eyes flashed with confusion.

"Do you think in another direction?"

The entrance to the stairs on the third floor is right in front of you. As he spoke, Zhong Ye pulled out his straight knife.

"Change direction..." Lillian murmured suspiciously, and saw a barrage flying past her eyes.

——【Holding? ]

——not 'guarding', but 'holding'?
