In a gorgeous room, Vivian was lying on the bed. After Scott left, she opened her eyes.
She lifted the thick curtains and opened the window, and Walter got in.
"Where's the master?"
"lost."
Vivian couldn't believe it, her pupils were trembling.
"What do you mean lost?!"
"He ordered me to wait for Selu around the temple. I waited for a long time, and chaos began in the streets. I went to the princess's castle to look for him, but I couldn't find him."
"Not found? You didn't find it?"
Vivian had begun to speak incoherently, and Schliemann quickly pushed her aside.
"Why did you return to the temple if I didn't find it?"
"I couldn't find him at the princess's castle, so I expanded my search area. When I saw you, I thought you would know his whereabouts."
Vivian was already jumping around in anxiety.
"Ignore him and tell him how you left the city wall."
Walter began to tell, concisely and directly to the point.
"Oh, Selu is Ram's sister...where would they go in this case?"
Schliemann crossed his shoulders and thought, then suddenly raised his head and asked Walter: "Did you look inside the castle when you were looking for it?"
"No, they just want to stop Selu, which means they will only wait on the only way outside the castle."
Schliemann was stunned for a moment, feeling like he had been hit on the head.
"Who are you really paying attention to? Waiting on the only way, Selu has been recognized as a witch, can you still enter the castle from the only way?"
Vivian on the side couldn't help it anymore and finally burst out with her emotions.
"The point is the whereabouts of the king. Why do you care who came up with the idea!? Think about it quickly!"
"Where else could it be! It must be in the castle! Selu killed the executioner's family, so she was probably responsible for the death of the princess.
Think about it, the two of them waited outside for a long time without stopping anyone. Suddenly news came from the castle that the old princess was dead. So Selu must be in the castle. They are not allowed to go in to look for her? "
Vivian nodded with a serious look on her face.
"Let's go to the castle."
"Wait a minute, you..."
After Schliemann finished speaking, he looked at Walter: "How does Ampton's combat effectiveness compare with yours?"
Walter hesitated for a while and said: "My physical strength is not as good as mine, my strength is about the same, my speed is not as fast as mine, but my swordsmanship is much better than mine."
"After all, he is better than you? Do you have any chance of winning against five fully armed warriors?"
"I'm fast, that's no problem."
"What about your king?"
"That's no problem."
"That'll be fine..."
Schliemann breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "The new princess has released most of his warriors, and there are far fewer people in the castle than on the streets.
You can run around in such a chaotic Antler City, but we... at least I can't, so it's best for you to go back by yourself while we wait here. "
Walter pursed his lips and said, "But even if I enter the castle, where will I find them?"
"Find the dungeon first. If Selu fails to escape after killing the old princess, she will be imprisoned in the dungeon. Apton should also be able to think of this."
"What if she was killed on the spot?"
"She, a witch who killed the princess, will be hung on the city wall when she dies. In that case, Ampton will not leave his place at all. He will wait for you nearby.
If you just walked around the city wall and didn't see anyone hanging on the wall, then Ampton must have entered the castle.
Go quickly, don't wait for Ampton to save someone before you go looking for nothing. "
Walter nodded, opened the window and jumped out.
As Schliemann expected, Ampton, who had been persuaded by Ram, had now entered the walls of the princess's castle.
The servants were busy, some were preparing fodder, some were preparing to eat, and some were setting tables in the open space in front of the castle, as if they were preparing running water mats.
It was too easy for Walter to sneak in here. He just showed the hilt of his sword, and the two soldiers guarding the suspension bridge let him pass. This was due to the emergency summons issued by the new princess Harry Vince.
Walter looked around with Ram's dirty hood. Unlike the several groups of soldiers who had gone down, this group of soldiers looked a little sloppy.
Some of them have an eye, some are missing a few fingers, and some of their weapons are just huge logging axes.
They seemed to have been recruited temporarily and were gathering in the open space, chatting in a muffled voice, waiting for the new princess to show up.
Of course, Apton didn't plan to stay here, he was going to look for the dungeon.
The servants were all busy, and no one had time to pay attention to this dirty warrior. Ampton strolled leisurely, crossed the small suspension bridge of the castle, and entered the interior of the castle.
There are many castles on the outside, but they are all the same on the inside.
A large hall, and then small rooms divided into many levels.
The castle and the temple have fundamentally different purposes, which results in the actual lighting effect inside the castle being less than ideal and the space being much smaller.
Unlike giving people a sense of grand oppression, the castle was built for defense, which makes it appear small and depressing.
There was a sound of arguing inside a wooden door with a large iron ring, and the sound made Apton stop in his tracks.
"No, those people who are looking for trouble can be killed as long as they deserve it. It will not affect this plan at all. On the contrary, we can use this as an excuse to get rid of the city lord of Wolf Claw City to the east.
In short, Selu cannot die. She must personally identify in front of the king that Said, the lord of Wolf Claw City, is the mastermind behind the murder of my father! "
"Yes, my princess, but before that we still have to attack Wolf Claw City. It is best to force Said to complain to the king.
In this way, at the critical moment, you bring out the key witness to testify against Said, in full view of the public, which will force the king to make a decision, so that he will have no room for turning over.
The king doesn't care who inherits the old princess's title. He will only give the title to the stronger party, and Selu's identification on the spot will give the king a reason to make a decision. "
"Very good, how many soldiers do we have now?"
"Including the newly recruited group, we have five hundred soldiers, one hundred of whom are cavalry."
After a burst of dry laughter, the young voice sounded like he was sure of victory.
"Well, I didn't want to be like this, but my uncle bullied others too much. He actually murdered my father in order to inherit the title, and also fanned the flames with the king, which really pushed me to a dead end.
In this case, don't blame me for being cruel. "
Ampton curled his lips and carefully left the doorway.
"It's a good plan, but it's destined to fail. I'll rescue Selu first."
Most of the castles have similar structures, which makes it easy for Apton, who is familiar with various castles, to find the entrance to the dungeon.
He tied his sword belt around his waist and carefully walked down the stone stairs in his most familiar battle-ready posture.
Soon he noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere. It was too quiet here.
The musty smell got into his nose. He checked the empty cells one after another, and found the cell leader who had been knocked to the ground in the last cell with the door open.
There was a large amount of blood on his head, and a stone was exposed from the broken hood beside him.
"Ram...you are such a good sister..."
