miss mist go with the flow

Sirin shrugged, "You'll know when you go down and meet him in person."

Amy glanced at the platinum-level professional at the stairs, "Are you sure you can avoid that guy?"

Sirin chuckled, "Try it."

Amy squinted her eyes, but saw Sirin floating forward without any disguise, walked to the stairs calmly, and said to the platinum-level professional guarding the gate: "Brother, the lord has noticed something strange in the manor, and sent us Come to strengthen the defense, do you need help here?"

Amy was stunned, Miss Swordsman's battle plan was so simple and bold?Isn't she afraid of being recognized by the guard?

The platinum-level professional guarding the stairs looked at Sirin's face, frowned slightly, and seemed to be unable to make up his mind, and asked tentatively, "Who are you? Why haven't I seen you by the lord's side?"

Sirin suppressed her voice and said, "I'm the group of people hiding in the dark, and I usually don't show up. This time, it's an emergency, so I showed up to communicate with you."

Amy thought this was nonsense, but the guard looked suddenly enlightened, "So, you have a lot of fighting spirit inside, and you can see that you are a master! However, I don't need support here, you should go outside the manor and have a look. There seemed to be movement over there just now."

Amy pouted, there must be movement outside the manor.

If Ashley hadn't been lazy, all the patrol teams outside the manor should have been pulled out.

Sirin said: "There are other persons in charge outside the manor. My responsibility is to protect the safety of the lord at a close distance. By the way, you are guarding here. Didn't you find anything unusual?"

"No, everything is as usual." The guard said, "Not long ago, the maid whom the lord admired the most went outside to get something, and she hasn't come back yet. If you are free, you can go to the kitchen to remind me, don't let the lord Wait."

Sirin raised her eyebrows, "Miss Nora?"

"That's right." The guard sniffed, with a yearning smile on his face, "That's really a beautiful lady, it's heart-wrenching."

The corners of Sirin's eyes twitched. That young, misnamed succubus really has this kind of charm?

So did Scott, and so did the guard, both seemed fascinated.

Is she and Amy more strange?I didn't notice the attractiveness of that succubus at all—well, the specially modified maid dress is quite eye-catching, and it should look good on Amy.

Could it be that, as Amy wrote in the legendary novel, Nora's charm ability belongs to "special attack on men"?

"Nora is indeed very beautiful." Sirin echoed, "I'll leave first, so I won't disturb you standing guard."

Sirin turned and walked away. At the moment when the guard relaxed, she turned around abruptly and pointed like a sword at the guard's chest.

Fighting Qi erupted in a small area, arousing the power in the guard's body and impacting his brain.

The guard snorted, bleeding from the corner of his mouth, his body collapsed limply, and he passed out.

"It's done!"

Sirin gestured to where Amy was, signaling the Moon Elf to come over quickly.

Ami stepped on her toes and walked over, curling her lips and said, "In the end, a physical attack was used. I thought you could fool him and let him open the door for us."

"The information that should be confirmed has been confirmed, there is no need to continue." Sirin reached out and rubbed the end of Amy's hair.

In fact, if she was the only one going down by herself, she could indeed fool the guard into letting her go without bloodshed.But she still had to take Amy with her, and there was really no plausible reason for that.

It can't be said that Amy was sent to sleep with the lord, right?

She couldn't say that.

Therefore, in order for the Moon Elf to act together with her, it was necessary to act or to act.

"Let's go."

Sirin took Amy's hand and stepped on the stairs leading to the ground.

Amy muttered softly, "Aren't you afraid of revealing your identity when you did that just now?"

Sirin said with a smile: "This Adams looks like a very suspicious person. I'm sure that the guard doesn't know how many guards Adams has arranged behind his back. There is a lot of room for manipulation."

Going down the stairs, there is indeed an underground floor in the castle, with thick walls on both sides, and the hanging lights are actually made of luminous gemstones, revealing an inexplicable sense of luxury.

At the end of the stairs is a dark gate, but this time the guards are not human beings, but two humanoid puppets made of metal.

Sirin was also speechless. With so many layers of protection, what was Adams afraid of?

Human puppets can't be solved by deception and sneak attack, but the difficulty of fighting them is not very high for Sirin.

She first observed from a distance, and even recognized the models of those puppets.

There was a master of alchemy in the Abyss Expedition Team who made several types of dolls for combat. The two dolls that Adams used to guard the gate were also made by that master.

Adams wouldn't think that after 300 years, no one would know the weaknesses of these puppets, would he?

Sirin recalled a little, and unlike ordinary human-shaped puppets, the cores of these two puppets are not located in the heart, nor is it right where the brain is, but behind the eyes.

Sirin stepped forward and activated two humanoid puppets, and when they just took action, they stabbed two swords quickly.

puff.

Eye sockets were on fire, and the two golems stopped moving, frozen in place and unresponsive.

Sirin looked back at Amy and shrugged.

It's over, the obstacle has been removed, and I can finally see the lord who is hiding in the tortoise shell.

Song of the Traveler: Chapter 52 Lord Iris

crunch.

The heavy door was slowly opened under Sirin's push. Miss Swordsman didn't use all her strength, she pushed the door and was vigilant about the situation inside.

If someone suddenly attacked, she could take Amy to escape in time.

Judging from the character shown by Adams' previous arrangements, he is likely to play the trick of "opening the door and killing".

To Sirin's surprise, after the heavy metal door was pushed open, there was no attack and no mechanism.

The room inside the iron door was much smaller than she had expected. It was a closed space with a radius of four meters. Apart from a bed, a wardrobe, and a set of tables and chairs, there was no other furniture.

A gray-haired, middle-aged man in his forties was sitting at a desk with his eyes closed.

Sirin had seen the portrait before and knew that this was Adams, the current lord of the Iris Collar.

The middle-aged man's appearance is fairly handsome, with regular facial features, even with his eyes closed, he can feel a calm and prestige.

He didn't seem to notice that the door had been opened and a stranger was standing in front of him.

It wasn't until Sirin stepped closer to him that Adams slowly opened his eyes.

This middle-aged lord has a pair of attractive eyes, the shape of the eyes is beautiful, the pupil color is dark blue like irises, hiding the vicissitudes of life, he looks like a man with a story.

"You interrupted my sweet dreams."

Adams spoke with a deep and magnetic voice. He didn't seem to care about the identities of Sirin and Amy, nor why they appeared here, but simply stated a certain fact, "This is really annoying. It's not easy, and once you wake up, you miss a lot."

Sirin shrugged and said: "It seems that you still don't know why we are looking for you, and I don't have time to play charades with you, so just explain why we came here!"

"Your officer, Scott, has been confirmed to have a relationship with the abyssal monster, and has become a slave of the abyssal monster; Nora, the personal maid who serves you, is the succubus in the abyssal monster! We now suspect that you are also related to this time." The incident is related, so come to inquire and investigate!"

Adams tilted his head slightly, with a puzzled expression on his face, but it was not because of the charges against Sirin, but because of her identity, "Are you a secret guard of the Empire?"

"That's right!" Sirin said seriously.

Her identity can't be regarded as fabricated out of thin air. Before joining the Abyss Expedition Team, because of her high efficiency in hunting down black mages, Sirin once held a position with the Dark Guard.

But she never reported to the secret guard's department at all, and even if she did report and went through the formal entry procedures, it was 300 years ago, and the list will most likely not remain until now.

The corners of Adams' mouth curled up, and he said with a smile: "If you put all the charges on me, it means that your investigation is still close to completion."

Sirin frowned, "What does this mean?"

Is this lord going to start shirking responsibility?

Adams explained the meaning of his words with actions. He stood up directly and raised his wrist.

Sirin retreated vigilantly and protected Amy behind her.

There was no spell in Adams' hands, and his sleeve robe was turned up by this action, revealing the two iron hoops on his wrists.

Steel chains hung from iron hoops, and connected to the thick walls of the room.

In addition to the iron hoops and chains on his wrists, Adams also had several chains on his body. These things bound him in the room, and the furthest range of movement was only to the bed. He couldn't walk to the main entrance, let alone leave. room up.

Both Sirin and Amy were stunned by the scene they saw in front of them, neither of them were fools, their brains turned quickly, and Sirin asked directly: "Scott and Nora locked you here? Since when?"

Adams smiled indifferently, sat back on the chair, and said, "About a month ago, I could tell the passage of time here, and I could only rely on the three meals they delivered regularly. I can't remember the specifics after so many times. time."

Sirin fell silent for a while, and both she and Amy thought Adams was afraid of death, so he set up so many layers of defense.

Now knowing the result and calculating backwards, I realized that these unreasonable protective measures were all barriers created to imprison and monitor Adams.

Is this the so-called different perspectives, so what you see is completely different?

The most amazing thing is that the people who formed these barriers are all Adams' loyal subordinates.They still thought they were protecting the lord, but they were actually trying to prevent others from getting close to Adams, thus saving him.

Sirin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Even so, I can't completely rule out your suspicion. Lord Adams, let me tell you how you were imprisoned first."

"Miss, after all, I am the lord of a land, and I have the status of the earl of the empire." Adams's attitude was quite leisurely, and he could not see the embarrassment of being in a predicament. "Shouldn't you let me go before interrogating me?" Shackles, set me free?"

Sirin said: "In front of the hidden guards, all the people being interrogated are treated equally, even the Minister of State Affairs and the prince of the empire are no exception. Your status has no privileges."

She didn't think that what she saw could wash away Adams' suspicion of colluding with the abyssal monsters.

There are too many uncertainties in the middle, which have yet to be explored.

When it comes to abyssal monsters, no matter how cumbersome and cautious it is, it cannot be overstated.

"Tsk tsk." Adams shook his head, "You little girl, you are pretty, but your personality is too gentle. If you can learn from Nora—"

Sirin glared at Adams coldly, and Amy couldn't help reminding:

"Nara is a succubus."

Although both Amy and Sirin think that the succubus is pretty good, judging from the reactions of several men, Nora seems to be quite tactful towards men, maybe she really is a special attack on men.

"The tenderness of the succubus is all fake." Amy continued to chase, "You are locked here, is it inseparable from her fake gentleness?"

Adams froze slightly, sighed lightly, and suddenly started talking about business.

"More than a month ago, Scott brought Nora during a secret meeting with me."

"To be honest, it was the first time I was attracted to a woman after my wife passed away. That night, when I was going to enjoy a pleasant evening with Nora, she knocked me out. I came here when I was sober, Moreover, there were some things on the hands and feet, the communication ring was also taken away, and the guards at the door no longer obeyed my orders..."

"I was put under house arrest by my most trusted officer and the woman I just fell in love with. When I first realized this, I panicked and prayed every day for someone to rescue me, but I was locked up for so long. I'm almost used to it. During my absence, the iris collar didn't become a mess, did it?"

"Let's say it's running normally." Sirin calmly said, "According to what you're saying, you have absolutely nothing to do with the coming of the abyssal monster?"

"Not really." Adams said, "Scott and Nora spared my life because they wanted to get something from me."

"What?" Sirin asked.

"The crest of the Iris family." Adams said, "With this, Scott can enter the final resting place of the Iris family."

"The location of the cemetery is very particular. It is the intersection of the power of the two leylines, so it is rich in magic power and aura. Scott and Nora probably want to build an abyss portal there."

Amy raised her forehead, and it was the cemetery again. Are people in this world so attached to the cemetery?

Song of the Traveler: Chapter 53 The Disguise

After hearing what Adams said, Sirin pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "That is to say, their portal construction is still in the stage of site selection, and construction has not yet started?"

Adams nodded, and then felt that the meaning of his action was too affirmative, and added: "They haven't got the family emblem from me yet, and they don't plan to do anything to me. From this point of view, it should be determined." The idea is to build a portal in the cemetery of my family, and use the power of the leylines to attract more powerful demons."

Sirin nodded slightly, "It sounds reasonable."

Adams raised his head slightly, "As an imperial nobleman, I naturally know the horror of the abyss monster. Although I was trapped here, I didn't give in to the monster, nor did I lose my mind because of the succubus."

"Hmm." Sirin narrowed her eyes suddenly, looked at the iron hoops and chains that imprisoned Adams, seemed to have discovered something, and praised casually, "Well done, you haven't lost the backbone of the imperial people."

"Ugh……"

Adams sighed, "Little girl, since you have successfully dealt with the succubus and the traitor, can you release me from the shackles and let me out? With me as the lord, your investigation can go much smoother."

"Your Excellency, you are still the object of our suspicion. We will not decide whether to let you go until the naturalist inside the dark guard investigates the scene." Sirin said, "If you really want to cooperate with our investigation, you should be obedient. stay here."

Adams could tell that Sirin's tone had relaxed a lot, not as firm as it was at the beginning.

He adjusted his sitting posture and asked, "Is that traitor Scott dead or alive right now?"

"Dead." Sirin said, "Killed and sealed by the succubus."
