This Game is Not Easy

Chapter 72: shadow man

"Lord Lord, people will change! The weather outside is now, just as the snowstorm is coming. At this time, even if you seek support, the distant water cannot save the near fire. Captain Rick must have valued this, so he was here. It's a time of trouble!"

"I believe in Rick!"

"Lord Lord! Don't because he is your illegitimate child..."

The butler wanted to say more, but was glared back by Count Xhosa.

The voice became cold, and Xhosa spoke coldly.

"I know about this, I'll handle it, you go back."

"Lord Lord, please think twice, because of the way you dealt with the vice-captain Lucien, he has always been resentful..."

"Go back!"

The butler opened his mouth and slowly closed it.

After a moment of silence, he bowed his head and saluted, and gradually retreated.

But when he was about to leave the room, the butler suddenly seemed to think of something, raised his head and said, "By the way, Lord Lord, Dr. Mel from Snowfield Castle is here, she wants to see you."

Count Xhosa was stunned when he heard this.

"So soon? She arrived after the invitation I just sent tonight?"

"I heard that she was rushing this way because she was worried about her sister's safety. It happened..."

Count Xhosa waved his hand and stopped the butler from talking.

"Got it, come when you come. Tell her I'm tired and don't want to see guests tonight."

"Ms. Lovely is going to see you too, with Dr. Mel. You know they are sisters..."

Count Xhosa made a move, and in his mind came to mind the lady in the dining hall who was panicked because of the excessive fright.

Encountering such a thing, he is the owner of the manor, and he has to apologize.

What's more, Ms. Alice's background is not simple.

Sighing, Count Xhosa nodded.

"Okay, you go and call them over."

"Yes."

Squeak.

As the housekeeper retreated, the door was closed again, and the room returned to calm.

Count Xhosa sat back in his seat.

Picking up the quill, his hand tightened and loosened, but he couldn't get the pen down.

But he didn't know it, it was behind the wall of his room.

There is a person, who is sticking his ear against the wall.

This man clenched the crossbow machine tightly in his hand, and his body was slightly tense.

It seems like a hunter who is hunting, waiting for some kind of opportunity.

It seems to be a hungry beast, and it may choose to devour at any time.

But the sound of writing that this person had been waiting for for a long time did not sound. People can't guess what Count Xhosa is doing at the moment.

Just when this man couldn't bear it any longer and was about to rush out, the voice of Count Xhosa finally sounded in the room.

And cold sweat suddenly covered his back.

"Come out."

This is what Count Xhosa said after a long pause.

"Impossible! I came here through the secret passage, and I have been enduring the pain without making any sound."

"How could this fat earl know that I'm here!"

"Unless...unless the secret passage made by the old one-eyed has already been known by the fat earl!"

"But even so, how did the Fat Earl achieve real-time monitoring? I already checked it when I came, and found nothing abnormal."

"No! Wait!"

Fang Yi's heart suddenly moved, and he thought of something that he had ignored.

This secret passage leads directly to the lord's bedroom.

It stands to reason that in this case, even the old one-eyed, it should not be difficult to kill Count Xhosa.

But why, for so many years, the old one-eyed has not done anything.

And even this time, he had to call in foreign aid like himself and the Tai Lun knights before he dared to act.

Fang Yi didn't want to get into the details of how much Ye Mo's strength was exaggerated, not to mention it myself.

But compared to ordinary knights, it must be much stronger.

The Tai Lun knights, although slightly weaker than their own strength, are still above the standard.

Of course, this is only a comparison on paper, the actual combat ability is another matter.

But even so, the lineup is still luxurious and powerful, just to kill Count Xhosa, it can be said that a bull's knife is used to kill a chicken.

"Maybe it's just in case... No! We even invited foreign aid. It's not as simple as just in case."

"Could it be that Count Xhosa is actually powerful and a master who can't hide it?"

"Or else... Count Xhosa has a master by his side, and he is closely guarding him 24 hours a day!"

Thinking of this, Fang Yi's originally tense hands relaxed immediately.

"I thought that the secret passage would only lead to a place close to the lord's study room at most, but I didn't expect to reach the lord's bedroom directly, which gave me the idea of ​​​​making a move..."

"I'm careless, I'm careless."

"It really is because I came to the new district, so even I feel contempt? If I change to the old district, I will not touch Count Xhosa even if I chop off my hand."

"Because this kind of guy who looks like an NPC and a player is really suitable as a bait for a trap."

"But in this dungeon, there shouldn't be a player with such awareness. If it does appear, it must be the [Tracker]!"

Taking a deep breath, Fang Yi completely calmed down.

Listen with your ears and focus on gathering intelligence.

Count Xhosa didn't know, he almost turned around at the gate of **** just now.

And after he said that, a figure had fallen silently from the shadow of the roof.

This man was dressed in black, and he didn't wear any armor.

At the same time, his body was as light as a swallow, and he landed silently.

So even Fang Yi on the other side of the wall didn't hear anything unusual.

He wears a mask with a single eye pattern, which makes his face invisible, exuding a faint arrogance.

However, facing Count Xhosa, he respectfully knelt down on one knee.

"Brother, I really need you to go out this time."

Count Xhosa raised the shadow man and said solemnly.

In his tone, there was no sense of giving orders to his subordinates, but instead there was a sense of equality.

However, what Count Xhosa did not know was that when his voice fell, someone behind the wall of the room suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and his thoughts were completely understood.

And the shadow man, who was half-kneeling in front of Count Xhosa, shook his head slightly.

"Lord Lord, my mission is to protect you, not to help you remove the hidden dangers of the manor."

The shadow man's voice was low, with a kind of vicissitudes, somewhat similar to Count Xhosa's voice.

"I know, but if Rick really betrays... he, who holds the heavy armored team, will bring a huge disaster to the manor!"

"...It's none of my business, I'm only responsible for you."

"But it's my business! As the owner of the manor, I must ensure the stability of the manor and ensure the safety of everyone in the manor!"

Count Xhosa stared at the shadow man emotionally, his chest heaving up and down.

The two stared at each other for a long time, but they refused to give in to each other. The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the air seemed to freeze.
