All the skeletons trembled violently, making one almost suspect that they would fall apart at any moment.

Robin watched this scene with relief, knowing that his old buddies were furious beyond measure.

Then, gritting his teeth, he jumped into the pool filled with purple liquid.

Section 150, Chapter 149: Out of Control

Blocking the entrance to the underground passage to the study, a group of guards stared at the dark passage, somewhat hesitant.

They had never heard of such a suspicious place before.

Suspicious places are usually associated with danger, and recalling the dangerous gadgets that the Marquis of Carmen had tinkered with in the past, many guards quietly took a step back.

"Are you sure Robin took the Marquis hostage and ran down there?"

Warner stepped forward, examined the entrance to the passage for a while, and asked his attendant beside him.

"Yes, sir, after he carried Captain Robin into the study, he disappeared. He must have entered this passage," the not-so-bright attendant replied.

Warner glared at him, and seeing the attendant's bewildered expression, the old man sighed inwardly.

At this point, whether or not it was the madam who committed the murder is no longer important.

The master has gone mad, and the young master is still so young...

"Sir, it's not that Warner betrayed you, but now I have no choice but to trust Madam. You and Madam have such a good relationship; Robin's words—no, he's definitely trying to sow discord!"

The old butler's expression hardened, and he said loudly, "That Robin is a traitor! He tried to take advantage of the master today!"

"Now he's hiding underground like a rat, holding the master hostage. Brave guards, the time has come to show your courage!"

"The lady assured me that whoever can rescue the master will be the new captain of the royal guard!"

Hearing such a generous promise, everyone on the field was tempted.

They looked at the dark passage and realized it wasn't so scary after all.

Just then, someone with sharp ears heard a loud noise coming from inside the passage.

"Hey everyone, watch out, it looks like..."

Before he could finish speaking, a skeleton carrying a knife rushed out.

It slashed at anyone it saw, and before the guards could react, it had already cut down four or five people!

Warner was very unlucky. He was standing at the front and was old, so he could only wait to die when faced with the sword coming down on him.

The old butler looked incredulous before he died; he probably never imagined that he would die so inexplicably here.

"Ah! Monster, monster!"

Screams erupted, and some guards turned and ran, but more guards grabbed their weapons and surrounded the skeleton.

The skeleton was agile and highly skilled in martial arts. Even when swords cleaved its bones, it remained unperturbed, reaping lives to the astonishment of its guards.

Soon, another skeleton ran out of the passage.

Two, three, four... When the twenty-third skeleton rushed out of the passage, the guards all ran away.

Instead of running around, the skeletons voluntarily came out of the study and lined up in several rows in the open space.

After all 133 companions emerged from underground, a small military formation had taken shape.

Oh, I almost forgot, there are now more than 133 partners.

The 134th person, Robin, the newly transformed undead captain of the royal guard, carefully led the Marquis out of the study.

It moved its limbs a little awkwardly, and then bowed to its owner.

Robin ran to the front of the army formation, remained silent for a moment, and then waved his right hand.

Now, it's time for those who rebel to pay the price!

"Madam! Something terrible has happened!"

"There's a demon, a white demon..."

"We need to think of something quickly, Warner has been killed by a demon."

"Madam, what should we do? There are so many demons! They're killing people everywhere, and the guards can't hold them off any longer!"

"Madam, let's go quickly!"

The Marquise's mind was in turmoil; she simply instinctively grabbed the child's hand.

Stepping out of the bedroom, the Marquis's mansion was already engulfed in flames.

"What exactly happened? Don't panic!"

"Madam, the master carried—no, the captain—hijacked the master and ran to the study. There's a passage inside, and there's a monster in the passage! A monster! The monster is coming!"

Following the servant's gaze, the Marquis saw a group of terrifying skeletons.

Their attacks were fierce and fearless of swords and blades. Under the skeletons' relentless assault, the guards who were fighting back were forced into retreat.

Blood stained the ground, and screams echoed throughout the Marquis's mansion.

"Let's go!"

The Marquise calmed down at this point, holding the child's hand tightly, ignoring his loud cries of pain.

"Let's go out and, once we've gathered our loyal soldiers, we'll send these cruel demons back to where they belong. Don't be afraid, there aren't many of them!"

Seeing that the lady remained calm in the face of danger, the servants seemed to have found their pillar of support.

"Protect the lady and retreat!"

"Retreat! Retreat!"

Escorted by a group of people, the Marquise calmly left her home.

However, her heart felt heavy.

The Marchioness understood that after today, her husband's affair would likely be exposed to those who were interested.

What will happen to me, a widow and her child, then?

Thinking of this, she almost couldn't help but shed tears.

A maidservant cautiously glanced at the mistress of the house.

"I'm fine. I've seen how hard everyone has worked, but it's not time to relax yet."

"Let's leave here first... I will gather the vassals loyal to the Carmen family and write to my father for help."

"I promise, it won't be long before everything returns to normal!"

Amid the cheers of the crowd, the Marchioness took one last look at her home.

Goodbye... my dearest.

“My lord, I am ready.”

"..."

As Andy sized up the man who appeared to be his personal guard captain, he wondered what preparations the man had made.

"Hmm, it's good to be determined. Are you really not going to regret it?"

"To protect my family, to defend you, my lord, and the Carmen Territory I love, I would gladly become a monster!"

Andy's gaze froze. A monster? That's a lot to say.

He looked around; at this moment, there were only the two of them in the room.

"Robin... when do you want to start?" Andy asked vaguely.

"My lord, I'm available anytime."

"Oh"

Andy nodded. "Then, tonight it is. Come see me tonight. There needs to be a witness for this kind of thing."

"Thank you, sir!" Robin said gratefully without thinking much of it.

In the dead of night, Andy followed a figure somewhat furtively.

Occasionally, when he encountered soldiers on night patrol, he would wave them away.

Because he didn't know where the destination was, Andy was always half a step behind Robin.

As they walked, Andy realized they had somehow ended up in 'his' study.

Andy couldn't help but glance at Robin, only to see him looking solemn, as if he were about to do something incredibly sacred.

He opened his mouth, but swallowed the question he wanted to ask.

As soon as he entered the study, Robin quickly locked the door.

Andy raised an eyebrow but remained silent.

Robin opened the underground passage with practiced ease, and while Andy was still in a daze, he had already gone inside.

Wow, looks like tonight's going to be a big hit!

With excitement, Andy stepped into the dark passage.
