Lord Highlander

   Chapter 1232 1219. Exploration

  The warrior was wearing a set of light armor, leaning against the bluestone wall, his eyes were slightly open, but his pupils were dilated.

  He looked very young, with a thick layer of down on his chin and lips, he looked like a young man here serving in the military.

Many lords will recruit young people who have reached the age of 16 in their territories to join their private army. According to the laws of the Green Empire, male citizens over the age of 16 are obliged to serve in the military for four years, but this regulation does not say, it is not allowed Young citizens join the lord's private army for military service, so many lords will have such a group of young soldiers.

  In order to ensure the effect of charm, Aphrodite took off the mithril mask, stared into the eyes of the warrior, and asked him:

"Who are you?"

  There was a sense of mystery in the voice, and the soldier replied with a confused face: "Andy Jenner."

  Aphrodite asked again in an unusually steady voice:

   "Where is this?"

  The soldier replied immediately without hesitation:

   "This is Yezipias Manor."

   "Who is the owner of this manor?" Aphrodite continued to ask.

  The soldier replied calmly, "Lord Petunia."

   These are almost identical to the information obtained during the day.

   "How many troops are here?" Aphrodite asked again.

   "Five hundred swordsmen...three hundred cavalrymen...two hundred archers." The young soldier said slowly after a while with struggle and pain on his face.

  Aphrodite asked him: "Have you seen a black mage here?"

  The young soldier had a struggling expression on his face, as if he was about to wake up from a deep sleep, but after struggling for a long time, he couldn't open his heavy eyelids, and finally fell into a deep sleep.

"No…"

  The sleeping soldier replied quietly.

   The huge eyeballs suspended above Aphrodite's head also dissipated at this time, and Aphrodite stood up and put the mask on her face again.

   "He only knows so much..."

   Aphrodite whispered.

Suldak nodded, and the three of them walked down the stairs inside the watchtower. There was also a lounge in the watchtower. The three of them carefully passed the lounge without a door, and found that someone was sleeping inside, and someone Playing cards, hardly anyone noticed them.

Walking into the manor along the watchtower, there was a flat street in front of them. The three of them walked two hundred meters close to the shadow of the street. There were almost ordinary houses on both sides of the street, and there were no shops. Waiting for them to walk out On this street, I realized that I came to the gate of the garrison barracks, and there were two guards guarding the gate.

Opposite the barracks, there is a piece of dilapidated houses. Although the low houses are built of bluestone, the roofs, doors and windows are all made of wood, and they are very rough. Some wooden doors even have some bark on them, and the roofs are rough Just spread some twigs and thatch.

   Only a few rooms can still see a little light. When the three of them walked into this residential area, they could occasionally hear chatter coming from the house.

  Aphrodite randomly picked a farmer's residence, pushed open the courtyard door and walked in. A magic pattern circle appeared under her feet. After a lengthy spell, a cloud of mist drifted around her body.

   "Sleeping Cloud"

   Waiting until the surroundings were completely quiet, Aphrodite gently pushed open the wooden door and walked into the house as if she had entered her own home.

The furnishings in the room are very simple, and there is no distinction between living room, bedroom, and kitchen. There is a set of wooden tables and chairs at the door, tableware and black iron pans are placed on the shelf next to it, and there are two beds in the innermost part. There are two adults, who seem to be the host and hostess of this house, and the other bed has two layers, the lower layer is a bigger boy, and the upper layer is a smaller girl .

  They all slept soundly and breathed evenly. The boys might be tired from playing during the day, and they snored slightly.

Aphrodite sat casually by the bed, woke up the male owner in the room, and "charmed" him for a moment. After some questioning, the answer given by the tanned farmer was unexpectedly It's exactly the same as the young fighter.

  Looking at the sleeping farmer, Sia, who was sitting on an armchair in the room, whispered to Suldak: "It seems that there should be no black magician in this manor."

  Suldak also thinks there is nothing wrong with this manor...

  Aphrodite insisted and said: "Ask another one, maybe they, the low-level people, don't know the situation in the manor at all!"

   Saying that, Aphrodite walked out of the low hut and set her sights on the buildings next to the barracks that looked like villas.

  …

  The sound of horseshoes gradually disappeared, and only then did Surdak and his party quickly walk into a villa from the shadow of the corner.

Through the glass window, you can still see the soft light from the wall lamp in the room of the villa. An officer is taking a bath in the bathroom. The bathtub is a bit small for him, and he is half-sitting in the bathtub to wash his hair. Full of soap bubbles.

  The woman is in another room, holding a book and telling a story to a blond boy. The boy is very obediently lying on the bed, and occasionally asks a tricky question to the woman.

   They didn't know they were outside the window, and Suldak, Aphrodite, and Sia had been standing in the yard for a long time.

  Until the officer finished taking a shower, he changed into pajamas and lay in the bedroom, wiping the long sword beside the bed with a clean handkerchief.

The woman finally put the boy to sleep, and then she walked out of the boy's room, untied the tie that held up her long hair, let the long hair hang down like a waterfall, and cleaned up the bathtub in the bathroom, and then Walking into the bedroom with two cups of hot milk tea...

   At the moment when their spiritual consciousness was completely relaxed, Aphrodite released the 'cloud of sleep'.

   After all, the opponent is a middle-level officer. Once the sea of ​​spiritual consciousness is a little stronger, he may not be affected by the cloud of sleep. That's why Aphrodite patiently waited until his spirit was completely relaxed before casting this group magic.

  The three of them walked in from the main entrance, passed the very clean living room, and came to the officer's bedroom.

  The two hugged each other tightly, still maintaining the awkward position before falling asleep...

Aphrodite walked to the bed, cast her charm again in front of the officer, questioned him, and got the same answer. The owner of this manor is Earl Petunia, and the officer is a member of the Swordsman Regiment. A squadron leader with the strength of a peak swordsman.

   Sure enough, she still has some strength!

   Let the swordsmen lie on the bed again, and Aphrodite even covered them with a blanket before walking out of the bedroom.

  The three of them were not in a hurry to leave, they sat on the sofa in the living room, there was still warm milk tea on the coffee table, although Xi Ya didn't drink it herself, she poured a cup for Suldak very thoughtfully.

   "There should be no problem with this manor, and I will expand the scope of the search next." Suldak said.

  Aphrodite took off the mithril mask, shook her head and said, "I always feel that something is wrong, let me try again..."

  She walked to the boy's room, Sia chased after Aphrodite, and asked:

   "What are you going to do?"

  Aphrodite said bluntly: "I want to ask that child again..."

  Sia was probably worried that Aphrodite's "charm" would cause irreparable trauma to the boy's soul. After all, charm is to conjure up the most feared or dreamed things in the dream, directly hitting the weakness of the soul.

  So Sia said:

   "Let me go this time..."

  Suldak asked suspiciously: "Siya, can you also ask?"

   "Don't forget, I am the spell weaver of the Naga tribe. In addition to water magic, I can also sing the siren." Siya smiled at Suldak and whispered.

  Suldak found that he really didn't know enough about the little assistant who followed him.

Xi Ya pushed open the wooden door of the children's room, and the room was decorated very warmly, not to mention the thick carpet on the floor, a wooden horse beside the window sill, and various dolls piled up on the shelf next to the desk. Some wooden swords and shields have them.

  Sia walked to the bed and sat on the round leather stool that women often sit on.

  The boy was already lying on the bed and fast asleep. He was a little dishonest, maybe his pajamas were too hot, so he kicked the quilt away and rolled half of it around his body.

  Sia stretched out a hand, picked up the handkerchief beside the bed and helped the boy wipe the sweat from his forehead, and then softly sang a lullaby...

It was a very simple lullaby. She sat tenderly beside the bed and sang it softly. The singing sound was like a melodious bel canto. Although the voice was very soft, it was very expressive, and it was like singing a lullaby. Like a boat floating alone on the sea.

  And that boy seemed to be lying on a small wooden boat, waking up under the moonlight...

  The room also woke up with the boy at this time, the ceiling turned into a starry sky, the wooden bed was a small wooden boat, and the room turned into an endless sea.

  Sia also changed back to a mermaid at this time, laying her hands on the side of the bed, staring at the boy with blue eyes like lake water...

  Sia's method is completely different from Aphrodite's. Aphrodite makes people fall into a dream, and then uses charm to guide them a little bit. It feels like hypnosis to inspect the other party's inner world.

  While Xi Ya awakens people in a dream, and then uses illusion to change the surrounding environment into a dream scene, making people mistakenly think that they are still in a dream, but in fact they are already awake...

   "Oh my God, I saw a mermaid sister, am I dreaming?" The boy said exaggeratedly, he looked around, and the sea under the night was quiet and vast, and he quickly grabbed the side of the boat.

   "Yes, I am in your dream." Xi Ya said with a smile.

   Then stretched out a finger, and actually quickly drew a rainbow of seven colors in the dark night, which looked very cool.
