Chapter 404 The Manor in the Confrontation
Look away from the oil painting and come to the stairs on the first floor , and finally heard voices from upstairs. Not one person, but a group of people, it seems that the guests attending the banquet are all upstairs.

Shade took a few steps up, peered up at the corner of the stairs, and saw that there were five or six guards guarding the stairs, and two of them were even ring warlocks.

So take off the mask and turn it into a toy and put it in your pocket, then use [Moon Shadow's Illusion Technique] to make those bizarre silver mists flow upwards. The Illusion Technique's silver mists are invisible until they are in effect, and Shade manipulates them to form a mist wall at the top of the stairs. Then he stomped on the ground and made a sound. At the moment when the guards took the initiative to pass through the fog wall, his body disappeared and appeared behind the guards.

He bowed his head and played his Rhodes cards, walking towards the crowd, no one noticed Shade's arrival.

The second floor is very lively, the aroma of the food mixed with the smell of perfume makes people feel happy, the band in the corner is still playing soft dance music, and the mermaid-shaped gas lamps on the all around the wall make the whole banquet place. Looks bright and dignified.

Although people look a little terrified, no matter whether it is a decent gentleman or a lady in a fashionable dress, they can still socialize normally.

Shade tidied up his clothes, entered the crowd, and easily found out what happened here, and speculated what happened in the middle of the night.

A few hours ago, around ten o'clock, the Avrolla Manor, like Sophia's mansion, was attacked by people with marlin. But unlike the solidarity inside Sophia's mansion, this banquet was already mixed with spies of the Scarlet Esoteric sect disguised as guests, which led to the attackers successfully breaking into the mansion and blocking the way in and out with relics.

Fortunately, under the resistance of the ring warlock of the Church of Nature, the guards of Princess, the guards hired by the Avrolla family, and the bodyguards of a few guests, the shootout lasted for nearly twenty minutes. upper hand.

The ugly enemy who is now attacking the manor occupies the basement and wine cellar of the manor, while the guests of the banquet move on the second floor and above. After discovering that no one could leave the manor, the ring warlocks of the Church of Nature found the owner of the manor, and Miss Avrolla announced that the police had been contacted. Now it is very dangerous below, so please wait on the second floor.

So the terrified people gathered together, and the ugly enemies in the basement didn't try to come up and attack the humans again.

"That's why there was no one on the first floor. The bloodstains I saw were left from the battle in the middle of the night. It seems that the ceremony node is in the wine cellar. We're gone."

Understanding what happened, and finding out that although there was death, there was no Princess among those who died, and Shade sighed in relief a little.

He didn't see Mr. Darkness nor Lacia on the second floor. It was later learned that not all the guests were here, and some of the distinguished guests of Avatar were resting on the third floor.

The stairs from the second floor to the third floor have more guard handles, and the protection of the third floor is much tighter than the protection of the second floor. And getting closer and closer to the Great Demon woman, Shade is unwilling to use power at will. Fortunately, not long after, he saw Lacia's maid coming downstairs, ready to go to the kitchen to serve hot tea for Her Highness the Princess.

Shade followed her into the hallway and nearly screamed the maid when she patted the maid on the shoulder.

"Oh, Shade!"

In the lounge on the third floor, Lescia was lying on the small sofa, covered with a blanket and resting with her eyes closed. Hearing the footsteps entering the door, it didn't sound like his maid, so he sat up and opened his eyes to see Shade:

"Oh, God, I'm not dreaming."

After saying that, the red-haired girl didn't care that there was still her own maid in the room, she stepped forward quickly, hugged Shade, but released it immediately.

She didn't give Shade a chance to speak, looked him up and down, and then asked strangely:

"What did you do to my maid? Why did she use Looking at you like this."

"Your Highness, it's nothing."

The maid said in a low voice, and Lecia didn't care what happened just now, she grabbed Shade's Arm, glad to see him:

"Shade, why are you here? Am I really not dreaming?"

She took Shade's arm and didn't want to let go On, with a surprised look on his face.

"I'm a little worried about you."

After saying that, he explained what happened in Sophia's mansion in the middle of the night, and showed the corpse he turned into a doll. And what happened in this manor was similar to what Shade heard on the second floor.

It's just that the ordinary person didn't understand part of the content. The fish people didn't want to "peacefully coexist" with the humans upstairs. However, the church's warlock squad went downstairs again two hours ago and had a head-to-head fight with the cultists. No one took too much advantage, so the current stalemate was formed.

"There is still an hour and a half of sunrise, when the sea of red will appear. And the church will break through here, probably around the same time."

Shade summed it up The current situation, but he was not nervous at all, after all, he confirmed that the Great Demon girl was still in the house.

"Will you be with me?"

Lecia asked in a low voice.

"No."

"en?"

"Oh, I mean, I thought I'd take a look."

Shade pointed downstairs. Since the mansion is an important ceremony node, the murlocs in the ground must have ceremony information in their hands. He suspected that the information on "Golden's Pearl" was also in the hands of the murlocs. It's certainly risky, but definitely worth it. Before the night is over, [Moon Shadow's Illusion Technique] can still be used, and he wants to go to the basement as much as possible to have a look.

"Don't take the risk, I'll have no problem with that fishing line."

Lecia seems to have misunderstood what Shade meant. How to speak. Confirming that Demoness is here, he already believes that Her Highness the Princess will have absolutely no problem.

If she came to a banquet held by the Avrolla family and something happened, it would be the Great Demon girl who would suffer the most.

Without those relics that resisted the curse, Sivi Avrolla would not have said anything to let Resia Cavendish die here. Even if you don't consider the influence of the royal family, you must also consider Miss Galina, who is also a member of the Demoness Council.

"Apart from the murlocs, I accidentally heard some news on the way I came here. One of them was a demon, eh?"

Shade suddenly startled, and then slammed into his chest .

The badge heated up quickly, and the heat even made him feel a little pain. The Great Demon woman, is approaching here.
