Astral Apostle

   Chapter 100 Running away with a bucket

   Zhou Jing quickly took off his clothes, took a bottle of medicine from the shelf, poured out the ointment from it, and smeared it on his body.

   This is a homemade potion used to change body odor. As a high-level pharmacist, it is only a pediatrician to prepare this kind of potion, and the formula was made within two months.

   Through the detection of Xiaohei No. 1's sense of smell, and the effect of repeated trials, the camouflage effect of the "body odor changing" medicine is now very good, even a dog can't tell the difference.

   He quickly changed into his servant's clothes and dressed up a little to make his appearance less noticeable. Then adjust the posture in front of the mirror, the whole portrait balloon is deflated, from standing tall and straight to bowing down, from a confident posture to a servant-like low-brow pleasing to the eye, the temperament has changed greatly, if you don't look carefully, Difficult to recognize as the same person.

   In the past two months, Zhou Jing has been watching carefully, imitating the demeanor of a servant, honing his acting skills, and has become very proficient.

   It didn't take long for him to change his clothes and stand with his servants, barely distinguishable.

   A servant changed into his clothes and pretended that Bill was still in the room, leaving one person, also to match the number of people.

  If you are lucky, you will probably have one night to be active, and it will be exposed during the day. This servant who is left behind is very bad, and it is the dead man arranged by Roman.

  Xiaohei No. 1 squatted on the ground, the sword-tailed eagle stood on the bird stand, the dog and the bird all tilted their heads and looked at Zhou Jing.

   "Stay here, don't run around."

   Zhou Jing whispered.

  You must not bring two marked pets with you when running in secret, which increases the risk of exposure.

   But he doesn't plan to throw it away, after all, he has cultivated a lot of time. When the matter of his disappearance is revealed, there will be chaos in the gold castle, and no one can take care of Bill's two pets, so he entrusts Roman to take care of them, and asks his subordinates to take the two pets away while they are in chaos, and then send them to him when they meet up later.

  Because he got closer to Roman and he disappeared, Roman would also be suspected, so it also means running away. It's just that Roman won't leave for the time being. There are still some reasons for staying in the palace. He doesn't worry about being trapped. After all, with his strength, it is much easier to leave.

   The group was getting ready to go. Zhou Jing picked up the clothes basket and mixed with the servants, feeling a burst of nervousness and excitement. This kind of quiet action made people excited.

   He took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and patted the leading servant, signaling for action.

With a creak, the door opened, and the empty corridor jumped into view.

   Several people immediately closed the door and left as if nothing had happened.

  Although the guards did not guard the door, they all stayed in the next room with the door wide open... They were more like a group of jailers than guards.

   Sensing the movement, Hader, Lake and the others turned their heads subconsciously to look at the group of servants.

   Zhou Jing's back was tensed, and he used the bodies of the other servants to cover without leaving any traces.

   Every step seems to take seconds and years, for fear that the guards will find clues.

   But the guards just glanced at it, and then withdrew their gaze, not suspicious.

   It wasn't until he walked around the corner that no one suddenly stopped him, and Zhou Jing's heartstrings loosened slightly.

   The most difficult level is over, as long as you hide from the bodyguards who are familiar with him, you will be half safe.

   A full set of performances, several people hurried on the road carefully, and the patrolling guards encountered on the road often glanced at them at random, and then looked back.

The huge golden fort is heavily guarded, but it is impossible for the patrolling guards to conduct an investigation every time they encounter a person. It is too wasteful of energy, so many servants can move freely in the golden fort, only when entering and leaving important places. will be checked.

   After all, the Terra Empire has a primitive civilization, and there are no hardware conditions such as monitoring. Even if the security is heavily guarded, it is only judged by the standards of the alien world, and there are inevitably omissions.

  Zhou Jing followed the servants, and quickly left the main fort. He came to an annexed fort, found a hidden staircase, and turned along the stairs.

   Soon, a few people came to a storeroom that seemed to have been abandoned long ago. The wooden shelves were lying down, many of which were rotten, and a team of patrolling guards was waiting at the door.

The captain of the guard greeted the servant, then put his eyes on Zhou Jing, and said in a low voice: "I'll take you on the next route, just change to a guard, the guard's full set of equipment is ready, Master Bill, Please change it."

   This patrol guard is also Roman's.

   Zhou Jing is not surprising, in the past two months, in order to prove the feasibility of running away, Roman has revealed a part of the bottom... He is in power in the palace, and has been infiltrating for many years, and has already installed his own people in various positions in the Jinbao.

Moreover, Roman has established a huge piece of information. He has found out all the secret passages in the gold castle. He has formulated Bill's escape route, which is accurate to the shift time of the real patrol and guards, and which section of the road needs to be changed in disguise. The least noticed etc.

   He walked into the storage room, and it didn't take long before he put on an old guard's uniform and walked out, mixing in with the guards.

   After circling around the Jinbao, changing several disguises along the way, Zhou Jing finally came to the entrance of a hidden underground passage.

   To get here, you need to find a cracked wall, remove the loose bricks, reveal an earth and stone staircase, and go all the way down to find this place.

  The entrance to the tunnel was blocked by a rotten iron fence, and there was a huge mouth that seemed to be swallowing people. At this time, in the narrow space in front of the entrance, stood a masked man with a torch and a short blade on his waist.

  Seeing Zhou Jing, the masked man stepped forward, took off the hood, revealing a face full of wind and frost, with ravines and gullies, cold as a rock, and said:

   "I'm Anzar, one of the secret guards of Lord Roman. This tunnel is very long and the terrain is complicated. You have to follow me closely."

   Zhou Jing nodded: "Where does this tunnel lead?"

"Besides the Golden Fort, the exit is the wine cellar of a single-family property in the Green Tree District of the Royal Capital. There is one of our strongholds. This tunnel is also one of the main channels for us to enter and exit the Golden Fort." Anzal said nothing. facial expressions.

The green tree area is the wealthy area in the real sense of the capital. Various dignitaries and dignitaries have real estate there, and the blood relatives and descendants of various tribes who stay in the capital generally also live there. For the "green tree area".

  Roman's men came to the inside and outside of Jinbao, relying on similar secret passages. After all, when Roman sent spies and received information, it was impossible to swagger to the front door.

   Zhou Jing followed Anzal into the dark tunnel, groping forward all the way.

   In the silent tunnel, only the monotonous footsteps of the two of them echoed.

   Zhou Jing looked at Anzal's back, and habitually threw a detection, and found that this person's strength was at the level of three enhancements.

   After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Jing said, "You should be a different-blood warrior with a lot of reinforcements."

   "Yeah." Anzal nodded.

   "You said you were Roman's secret guard. How many people are like you?" Zhou Jing deliberately asked directly.

   "You should ask Lord Roman about this yourself." Anzal didn't answer.

   Zhou Jing is not surprised. With the mentality of having a jujube but not a jujube, he asked again: "Do you know what Roman is doing? How powerful is he?"

Anzal shook his head: "You don't need to test me, although I am the confidant of Lord Roman, I don't know much. Lord Roman generally only tells us to do things, and rarely mentions his intentions. Everyone is only responsible for his own piece. , I am mainly responsible for protecting adults, protecting strongholds, and executing assassinations."

   "Then why do you work for him? Is it because he gives too much, or you agree with his philosophy, or because of emotional factors... There is always a reason."

   Zhou Jing raised his eyebrows, this was the first time he had contact with Roman's close subordinates, but Roman had instructed beforehand not to reveal the wizard's information, even his subordinates didn't know about it.

   "I respect Lord Roman, that's why."

  Anzal didn't want to continue this topic, so he changed the subject and said:

"When we get out of the tunnel, someone will take us out of the city. When we get out of the capital, you will go west with us, away from the capital. After passing through a few cities, you can reach our important station in the wild. Lord Roman will arrive later. There, meet you."

   Zhou Jing has no objection. Anyway, Bill's more than 100 catties of meat will be handed over to the other party to arrange.

  The two stopped talking and bury their heads on the road.

   After walking for a long time, light finally penetrated in front of him. When he walked out, it was a cellar, and another group of Roman's men was already here to support him.

   Zhou Jing changed his clothes again, this time dressed as a businessman, followed Anzal and the others to leave the stronghold, bypassed the curfew patrols, and hurried all the way to one of the city gates.

The captain of the garrison here had already made arrangements, and the group disguised as members of the caravan, expressing that they would hurry out of the city and go to the town in the suburbs of the capital, where they would meet with the caravan leader, and after paying a generous sum of money, they went out without a hitch. city.

   Walking out of the gate of the royal capital, Zhou Jing breathed a sigh of relief, secretly surprised that the action went so smoothly.

  It is almost impossible to easily get out of the golden castle by yourself. Without intelligence and power, even if you can get rid of the surveillance, you can't find a way out.

   Even if it is replaced by Jason, it will be difficult to handle, and it is more likely that it will be played all the way from the main gate, which will cause a huge movement and cannot be as silent as it is now.

   And with the help of Roman who has been infiltrated for many years and is known as the king of all things, he can run away so easily.

   He turned his head and looked at the capital in the dark, feeling inexplicable.

  Although it was very frustrating to be banned by the royal family later, he also used Bill to make a name for himself in the capital and gained support, and he was quite familiar with this place.

   This time, I made a choice to change my "life". I don't think I will come back after leaving. I want to go to a new environment to start a new life, and I still feel a little emotional.

   But the royal family wanted to turn him into a canary trapped in a cage, and in order to be free, they had to run away with a bucket.

   However, with Jason still staying in the capital, Zhou Jing was not panic at all, he had the confidence to step on two boats.

   "Jason can see the reaction of Bill's running away and the reaction of the royal family. It's enough to let him continue to roam the capital... This wave of running away, the information state particles are probably going to explode."

   Zhou Jing retracted his gaze, followed Anzal and the others, and walked into the long night under the moonlight.

   And at the same time…

   Shu Ni was lying on the bed with her eyes open, tossing and turning, the Queen's words during the day reappeared in her mind, and the joy of marriage faded, her heart was heavy, and she could not sleep all night.

   On the other side, the sleeping king Becky, the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, as if dreaming of a strong future for the empire.

   The brilliance of the same moon, like a soft veil, covers every face.
