Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 390: Assassins in Action

clang clang --

Under the night, everything was silent, only the footsteps of patrolling soldiers echoed on the empty city wall aisle, oh no, apart from their neat footsteps, there was also the sound of collisions between armor and shields.

Amidst the sound of footsteps, a slight noise suddenly caught the attention of the soldier walking at the end. He frowned slightly, and walked towards the outside of the wall where the sound sounded suspiciously. There was also a question from a comrade-in-arms behind him.

"Hey, what are you doing? Still not following?"

"Uh... I heard a sound, and it turned out to be the sound of a wild cat from somewhere." The soldier scratched his head and explained. The comrade who spoke did not comment, shrugged his shoulders, and motioned him to follow up quickly, and continued. moved on.

Seeing this, the soldiers at the end ignored the wild cat making the noise, and hurriedly followed them. After they walked away, a black shadow suddenly turned over from the wall stack that made the noise. He looked around vigilantly and found that there was no When there was any danger, he leaned against the wall, quickly ran into the tower, and walked down the city wall.

The streets of Isinda City at night are pitch black, and you can hardly see your fingers. Except for the light from the torches held by the occasional patrols passing by, there is only a slight moonlight. Under the cover of darkness, the black shadows have repeatedly avoided the patrols. The route went straight to the royal palace in the center of the city. Those homeless men who were huddled in the alley only felt a black shadow drifting past them, and they were so frightened that they woke up from their stupor, thinking that they saw the legendary of the soul.

Soon, the shadow moved to the outside of the castle where King Drapes of Milanas lived. This castle stood inside the city of Icinda. The waste from people and animals that have been floating in the castle for a long time, it can be said that it is not so much a moat as a dung river), this river is stinky, full of filth, and it is impossible for people to swim across. So the shadow—oh no, Assassin Rhys Howden set his sights on the stone bridge, which was the only way to connect the inner castle to the outside. If he wanted to get in, there was only one channel.

He was a little embarrassed. Although he was an assassin produced by the system, he was better than the native assassins in this world, and he could also appear in Richard's study out of thin air with the help of darkness (this is to be determined, because there is no scientific explanation), but this is not the case. It doesn't mean that he can use the darkness to teleport to the heavily guarded castle, decapitate King Drapes, and retreat without taking a piece of color. He is also a human being, and he will miss and die just like ordinary assassins.

Suddenly, he thought of the large number of patrols he had encountered along the way, and he retreated to the street again, lurking in the dark, waiting for the opportunity to come.

An hour later, in front of the alley where Reese was hiding, a group of heavily armed patrols passed by as usual, and he saw the opportunity to deliberately make some noise in the alley,

Afterwards, they hid in the darkness. After a while, the patrolling soldiers heard the news and ran into the alley in a hurry, but they still returned empty-handed, so they could only retreat out cursing.

And when the patrol team exited the alley, the assassin suddenly shot and knocked out the last soldier, and dragged him into the darkness. In a minute, Reese changed into the uniform and armor of the patrol soldiers, and followed out with a spear. The whole process was so smooth that no one noticed at all.

When he walked out of the alley, he found that the soldiers were waiting for him. The leader squinted his eyes and looked at him, asking, "Samanta, what are you doing in there, why are you so slow?"

"I'm a little anxious to urinate, and I peed in it." Rees deliberately lowered his voice, pretending to have a bad voice, and replied. He had never heard the soldier's voice, so he couldn't use his voice to answer.

Rees was ready to be seen through, but he didn't expect the soldier to wave his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, okay, it's really troublesome, hurry up and finish this trip, we have to go to the superior. "

Seeing that he didn't notice, Reese couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and hurriedly raised his legs to follow. The patrol team he was in went directly back to the castle barracks after completing the mission. In fact, the city was divided into two barracks, inside and outside. The outer barracks were stationed by troops patrolling the city walls, while the inner barracks were stationed by castle guards and some soldiers patrolling the streets.

After following the patrol team for the final journey, they returned to the castle surrounded by the "Dung River". Walking on the stone bridge, Rees could even clearly smell the stench from the "river water" below. He in Decheng couldn't imagine how the people here endured all this.

At this time, the leading soldier walking in the front had already started talking with the soldier guarding the city gate. The soldier guarding the city gate stretched out his head to look at the soldiers in the patrol team, and then asked the leading soldier: "Today?" Nothing strange happened tonight."

"No, everything is normal." The team leader said, he yawned, and then said: "Hurry up, I can't wait to get back to the warm bed, this damn weather is really getting colder .”

"Okay, okay, you go in." The guard waved his hand and said, at the same time, he signaled the soldiers behind him to get out of the way. Then the leading soldier nodded to him, and then led the patrol team behind him to go in. Rees With his head lowered, he tried his best not to see his face clearly, and he naturally followed the soldiers in front of him. I don't think anyone will be able to sneak into the castle.

After entering the castle, Rees looked at everything inside calmly. The scale of the castle is actually not as big as it looks from the outside. Its main building is only a castle main building, a barracks, a stable and two warehouses. .

As he walked, he observed the defense situation inside. There were two to four soldiers guarding the entrance of each main building. Without a suitable reason, he could not enter the main building of the castle, so he turned his attention to the entire main building. According to the building situation, he found that there was a warehouse next to the main building, and the top of the warehouse was in front of the windows on the second floor. As long as he could climb up successfully, he might be able to climb in through the windows.

Thinking of this, he suddenly pretended to have a stomach ache, and yelled out, which attracted the attention of the soldiers in front of him. Before they could ask, he quickly said: "My stomach hurts, maybe it's because I ate it badly. I'll fix it first."

After saying that, regardless of their reaction, they ran directly in one direction. When the soldiers saw this, they were also speechless. The leading soldier shrugged helplessly and said: "Leave him alone, he will come back later." Come back by yourself, let's go back to the barracks first."

"Okay." Several soldiers promised.

On the other side, Reese, who pretended to have a stomachache, walked all the way to a place next to the warehouse where no one noticed. Seeing no one around, he stepped on the box placed here with one brisk walk, and climbed up to the not-so-high warehouse in a few steps. At the top, his movements were very light, barely making a sound, and naturally it did not cause other people to notice.
