Chapter 102 Midnight Raid!

On the other side, Lake and others were treated as distinguished guests of the palace and were arranged to stay in special reception rooms.

This also avoided...

The old tailor's house was blocked by unsuspecting people.

There were four people in Lake's family and they stayed in two guest rooms.

As with most of their previous stays at the hotel, Lake and Poro stayed in one room, while veterans Invi and Danse stayed in another.

At least we don’t have to take turns keeping watch.

We're already in the palace, so it should be safe, right?
Even if a giant came, it would be impossible for him to attack the guest rooms in the palace right away, right?
Late at night, the door to the guest room where veteran Invi was staying was quietly unlocked. At the same time, a dark figure, carrying a rope, silently climbed down from outside the window.

"Card--"

The door lock was pushed open, making a sharp sound!

As if issuing some kind of order, the secret guard outside also kicked the window!
In an instant, the glass shattered, and the secret guards outside the door and the window rushed into the room almost at the same second. They had no lights, and in the dark night, they were able to rely on their memory to know the furnishings in the guest room!

The moment he rushed into the room, rapid sounds of breaking through the air came from two directions!
The two secret guards had already loaded their crossbows and were firing jet-black arrows.

“Puff—puff—”

Two muffled piercing sounds rang out one after another!

But there was no sound of anyone screaming.

The two secret guards knew something was wrong the moment the sound was made. With extensive training, they could tell the outcome by the differences hidden in the tiny sounds.

Two poisonous crossbow arrows hit the empty bedding and bed board!

"What about people?!"

They were startled, but they were also prepared for the possibility that the crossbow arrow would miss.

Through secret lines in the palace, they determined that these people had entered the guest room and had not come out again, so the target they wanted to kill must still be in the room!

The secret guard who rushed in from the door had his hand on the black sword at his waist and was about to draw his sword!

But at this moment, he felt a sudden chill on his neck.

what?
This thought only flashed through his mind before he was overwhelmed by the pain and death.

Just beside him, in an empty space, a saber flashed and disappeared, piercing his neck through the gap in his helmet!

"who!?"

The secret guard who suddenly rushed in from outside the window kicked open the curtains, and the dim moonlight shining into the room allowed him to see the vague furnishings in the room.

There was no one on the bed, and that person's position...

His well-trained mind instantly came up with two answers:

Under the bed and in the cabinet on one side!
But just as he drew his sword, he suddenly saw his teammate who rushed into the house from the door suddenly fall down.

And there's nothing around my teammates?!
Who did it? How?
He was stunned, gripped the sword tightly in his hand, widened his eyes, and carefully observed the scene in the dim room.

But there was nothing, I could only hear my own suppressed breathing!
Under the bed?

He stretched out his long sword, slowly leaned over, and stabbed under the bed...

The cabinet door was closed, and the space under the bed was not large, so even if someone was hiding there, they wouldn't be able to launch any offensive attack!
But to his surprise, there was no one under the bed.

Where is the person?

Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly felt a pain in his hand.

"Clang!"

The black sword fell to the ground.

At the same time, in the empty air, a huge force grabbed his throat!

"Uh--"

The secret guard looked horrified, his eyes wide open, but he still couldn't see anything in the air in front of him!
Could it be... a ghost? !
Gradually, his breathing became obstructed and his strength became weaker and weaker. He was no longer able to resist and was crushed to the ground by the force.

Immediately afterwards, his other hand and leg were also cut off by the suddenly appearing blade!
Only after losing all ability to move did the secret guard see that the air began to distort.

His target, veteran Invi, and Dans' figure appeared out of nowhere.

"Who are you? Why are you trying to kill us?"

Veteran Invi stared quietly at the secret guard on the ground. When he lifted the mask, he saw a face he had never seen before!

"I have many tricks up my sleeve, you'd better behave yourself..." Veteran Invi shouted again.

But the secret guard who had lost his ability to move did not show any fear on his face. There was no emotion in his eyes as he looked at the veteran Invi.

He smiled strangely and said:

"I'm……"

The next moment, the armor on his body immediately lit up with fine light patterns!

The old soldier was startled and pushed the secret guard to the corner of the wall, waving his cloak to protect his lover Dans.

The secret guard's armor was instantly enveloped in a magical light and began to rapidly disintegrate and collapse...

Turned into dust!
The corpse leaning against the door was also instantly broken into pieces by the formation.

……

On the other side, before the attack began, in the guest room next door.

When the two secret guards approached Poro and Lake's room, Poro had already woken up.

Wolves have very sensitive hearing and sense of smell, plus... the enhanced power of the "Wild Dancer" in the Poro's body far exceeds that of ordinary people!
The window was ajar, and a faint scent of human presence drifted in with the evening breeze.

At the same time, Poro also heard two almost silent footsteps approaching outside the door!

Although the secret guard lowered his footsteps, it was useless to the Poro!
"Click——"

The veteran and the secret guard at the door of the Poro room launched a surprise attack almost at the same time!
Exactly the same movements and actions——

"Puff-"

Two crossbow arrows fell into the air. Just as the secret guard at the door was about to draw his sword, a shadow jumped out from the corner he had not noticed!
Poro knocked the secret guard to the ground, and the secret guard was shocked.

But his well-trained movements made him stab the long sword in his hand towards the Poro's vitals like a reflex -

But at this moment, his eyes met the oily green wolf pupils in the darkness.

A huge invisible magic explosion instantly hit the secret guard's face!
The secret guard's mask is not as strong as Prince Boren's, which can withstand the impact of magic.

"Click——"

The secret guard's neck broke and shattered with a crisp sound.

Without a sound, he died on the spot!
The secret guard jumped into the house from the window, drew out the black sword, and started fighting with Lake!
"Qianglang——"

The two swords crossed, sparking a spark in the darkness.

The secret guard suddenly realized that although his swordsmanship was fast, it seemed that he couldn't break through the defense of the girl in front of him! ?

It doesn't matter... I still have teammates...

Just as he thought of this, he saw the secret guard at the door fall down out of the corner of his eye!

what? !

His face froze.

At the same time, countless red and green vines grew rapidly in the potted plants behind him and entangled towards the secret guard!

And Lake would never miss such an opportunity.

The sword flashed, raising a bloody mist.

The secret guard's hands and feet were injured, his sword fell, and he fell to the ground. The mask on his face was also torn in half!
Lake raised her sword to the guard's neck and asked in a clear voice:
"Who are you? Why are you here in the middle of the night..."

Before Lake could finish her question, the secret guard spoke:
"You are indeed very powerful, but unfortunately, you will get nothing."

The next moment, a demonic light appeared on the surface of the secret guard's black armor, and it was about to disintegrate and disappear!
Seeing this scene, Lake was stunned.

She suddenly uttered a string of curses, reached into her bosom, and took out the "Spell-Breaking Awl" from Prince Boren.

The crystal cone was already emitting a faint magical light.

She pushed the tip of the "Spell-Breaking Cone" and touched the surface of the secret guard's black armor...

Then, all the formations flashed for a moment, and quickly stopped under the astonished gaze of the secret guards.

"Sir, now...can we get some news?"

Lake raised her hand, tidied up the loose hair on her forehead, and smiled slightly.
