Chapter 341 Eye-opening
After knocking down the two guards outside the small building, Tom took out the dwarf sword from his waist and rushed in first!
At this time, most people in the building have fallen asleep, and the hall is empty.
Tom did not rush to climb to the second floor, but first searched the rooms on the first floor and found a cook, two maids and a gardener.
The four of them were gagged while they were sleeping, then their hands and feet were bound, and they were taken to the kitchen together.
Leaving two men to guard them, Tom continued upward, but this time he ran into some trouble.
As soon as I climbed up to the second floor, I met a person who was dressed the same as the guard guarding the door below.
After seeing Tom, he immediately wanted to draw his sword, but at the next moment at least three crossbow arrows hit his body.
But at the last moment before his death, he threw himself to the right and fell into a room.
Tom didn't think much, used the Dragon Lin Shield to protect his chest and head, and rushed in along with him.
As a result, there were eleven people in the room, all of them guards.
What's more, what Tom didn't expect was that these people didn't sleep for most of the night. Most of them were still fully dressed and had their weapons at hand.
Tom's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that he was so unlucky and happened to catch up with the two waves of guards changing shifts.
But there was no point in complaining now. Instead of exiting the room, Tom took two more steps forward and slashed at a tall and thin man in front of him with his sword.
The man looked shocked when he saw the body of his companion, and then saw a cold light streaking towards his chest, and subconsciously took a step back.
Tom didn't chase him, but turned around and stabbed the other person next to him.
He just stood firmly by the door, allowing other Black Dog Guard soldiers to enter the house smoothly, and then the two sides started fighting.
The strength of these guards is generally good. Half of them are orcs and have rich combat experience, but they are not as outrageous as the black-armored cavalry in the Guards Corps.
Under fair conditions, Tom could still beat him one-on-one, and the lizard warriors could compete with their opponents with their weapons and equipment.
But the most fierce one is Jin Tong. In order to prove his worth, he did not hold back. He single-handedly challenged three enemies, and cut off the head of one of them as soon as he came up. The remaining two could only hold on for a few more breaths. , also died one after another.
This unexpected encounter ended quickly.
After a while, there were no guards still standing in the room, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
On Shuangxiujiao's side, only two lizardman warriors were slightly injured, and another one was hit by a sword on the waist. After being bandaged, the bleeding was temporarily stopped, and he could continue to walk with the help of his companions. .
The only troublesome thing is that there is a lot of noise in the fighting here, which probably wakes up everyone else on this floor.
Tom simply stopped hiding his traces, split up his troops, and used the fastest way to explore the small building inside and out.
However, an accident occurred at this time, and he failed to find Clara.
Later, a lizard warrior found some clothes and sheets embroidered with Chinese characters from the room at the end of the corridor.
Tom came to Mother Naima holding one of the cotton coats.
After just observing, Tom has discovered that other people in the castle are slightly afraid of this old woman with a serious expression and a straight face. Many people are watching her eyes and acting.
So she is most likely the person in charge of things here.
Tom didn't waste any time and went straight to the point, "Where is the owner of this dress now?"
"Damn heretics, you can kill us, but don't even think of asking a word from our mouths." Aunt Naima said coldly.
Tom frowned. He could tell that this old woman was not pretending to be tough, but really thought so. She seemed to be ready to devote herself to her beliefs. Such people were the most difficult to deal with.
Moreover, the other party is also very old and a woman, so it is difficult to torture her.
So Tom looked away from her and looked at others, "Can someone answer my question? I can let him live."
"…………"
Still no one spoke in the room.
Seeing this, Aunt Naima also showed a satisfied smile on her face.
But her smile froze in the next moment, and she heard Tom continue, "Separate them, each in a room, and I will interrogate them one by one. Take her away first."
Tom pointed at Aunt Naima.
When everyone else was taken away from the hall, only Tom and a maid were left.
Tom spoke again, "Okay, you can say it now if you have anything to say."
"Are you a two-year-old?"
"That's right."
"How to prove it?" The maid was very vigilant.
Tom took out the radio from his waist and said from inside, "Fly in."
After a while, the maid heard a buzzing sound, and then a DJI drone flew in from the window of the small building.
"This is... a three-eyed bird?!" The maid recognized what was in front of her at a glance.
Now Tom was surprised, "Do you know the three-eyed bird?"
"Mary told me." The maid said, "She also told me that the Shuangxiu Cult has a sacred instrument that can record sounds and images."
"Do you know Mary?"
"My name is Ruby, and I am Mary's friend. You are a step late. She was picked up by Herodotus not long ago."
"Where to go?"
"I don't know, I'm just a maid." Ruby said, "Did you find it here after seeing the handkerchief I secretly placed on the wall? Mary said that the three-eyed bird can overlook the scene below from the sky."
"That's right, thank you." Tom paused and then said, "Do you know what Herodotus wants to find Mary?"
"Whenever he was unsure about something, he went to Mary."
"Huh?" Tom suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. This was the second time he heard such a bizarre statement.
"Oh, to be precise, I contacted Picia through Mary."
"Is it true that Mary still has the ability to contact the Silver Moon Goddess?" Tom also opened his eyes.
"Of course not. In fact, Miss Mary is just using various small experiments learned from the prophet Merlin to deal with Herodotus, pretending to be able to communicate with Bisiya." Ruby said.
"But Herodotus used to come here to look for Mary. Today is the only exception. He sent someone to pick her up." At this point, a look of worry appeared on Ruby's face.
Tom frowned, he was a little hesitant now, whether he should stay here and wait for Clara to come back, or go out and continue looking for someone. (End of chapter)
