The warrior wore a set of light armor and leaned against the bluestone wall. His eyes were slightly open, but his pupils were dilated.
He looked very young, with a thick layer of hair just growing on his chin and lips. He looked like a young man serving in the military here.
Many lords will recruit young people over the age of 16 in their territories to join their private armies. According to the laws of the Green Empire, all male citizens of the empire over the age of 16 are obliged to serve in the military for four years. However, this rule does not say that 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 warriors.
In order to ensure the effect of the charm, Aphrodite took off the mithril mask, stared into the warrior's eyes, and asked him:
"Who are you?"
There was a mysterious atmosphere in his voice, and the soldier replied with a confused look: "Andy Jenner."
Aphrodite asked again in an unusually smooth voice:
"Where is this?"
The soldier didn't hesitate and answered immediately:
"This is the Yezpias Manor."
"Who is the owner of this manor?" Aphrodite continued to ask.
The soldier also replied calmly: "Lord Petunia."
These are almost identical to the information obtained during the day.
"How many troops are there here?" Aphrodite asked again.
"Five hundred swordsmen...three hundred cavalry...two hundred archers." The young warrior showed struggle and pain on his face, and after a while he said slowly.
Aphrodite asked him: "Have you seen a black magician here?"
There was a struggling expression on the young soldier's face, as if he was about to wake up from a deep sleep. However, after struggling for a while, he could not open his heavy eyelids, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
"No……"
The sleeping warrior replied quietly.
The huge eyeball floating on 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.
Surdak nodded, and the three of them walked down the stairs inside the watchtower. There was also a lounge inside the watchtower. The three of them carefully passed by the doorless lounge and found that someone was sleeping inside.
While playing cards, almost no one noticed them.
Walking into the manor along the watchtower, there was a flat street in front of them. The three of them walked close to the shadow of the street for two hundred meters. There were almost ordinary houses on both sides of the street, and there were no shops. When they walked out,
On this street, I discovered that I actually came to the gate of the garrison camp. There were two guards guarding the gate.
Opposite the military camp, there is a stretch of dilapidated houses. Although those low houses are built of bluestone, their roofs, doors and windows are all made of wood, and they are very rough. Some of the wooden doors even have some bark on them, and the roofs are also rough.
Just lay some branches and thatch.
Only a few rooms could still see some light. The three of them walked into this residential house and could occasionally hear chatter coming from the house.
Aphrodite randomly chose a farmer's residence, opened the courtyard door and walked in. A magic array appeared under her feet. After a lengthy spell, a cloud of mist spread from around her body.
"Sleeping Cloud"
When the surroundings were completely quiet, Aphrodite gently opened the wooden door and walked into the house as if she were walking into her own home.
The furnishings in the room are very simple, and there is no distinction between a living room, a bedroom, and a kitchen. There is a set of wooden tables and chairs at the door, tableware and black iron pots on the shelves next to it. There are two beds at the end, and one bed is lying on it.
There are two adults, who seem to be the master and the hostess of the house. The other bed has two floors. The lower one is an older boy, and the upper one is a smaller girl.
.
They all slept soundly and breathed evenly. The boy may have been tired from playing during the day and snored slightly.
Aphrodite sat casually by the bed, woke up the male host in the room, and 'charmed' him in an instant. After some questioning, the tanned farmer gave an unexpected answer:
It's exactly the same with the young warriors.
Looking at the sleeping farmer, Thea, who was sitting on a back chair 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 persisted and said: "Ask another person, maybe they, the lower class people, don't know what's going on in the manor at all!"
With that said, Aphrodite walked out of the low hut and set her sights on the buildings that looked like villas next to the military camp.
…
The sound of horse hooves gradually disappeared, and Suldak and his party quickly walked into a villa from the shadow of the corner.
Through the glass window, you can still see the soft dim light emitted by 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. He is half sitting in the bathtub washing his hair.
Full of soap bubbles.
The woman was in another room, holding a book and telling a story to a blond boy. The boy was lying on the bed very obediently, and occasionally asked the woman a tricky question.
They had no idea that right outside the window, Surdak, Aphrodite and Thea had been standing in the yard for a long time.
Until the officer finished taking a shower, changed into pajamas and lay in the bedroom, wiping the long sword on the bedside with a clean handkerchief.
The woman finally coaxed the boy to sleep, then walked out of the boy's room, untied the tie that held up his long hair, letting it hang down like a waterfall, and went to clean 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 'Sleeping Cloud'.
After all, the opponent was a mid-level officer. Once his spiritual consciousness was a little stronger, he might not be affected by the Sleeping Cloud, so Aphrodite waited patiently until his spirit was completely relaxed before using this group magic.
The three of them walked in from the main entrance, passed through the very clean living room, and came to the officer's bedroom.
The two hugged each other tightly, still maintaining the same awkward position before falling asleep...
Aphrodite walked to the bed, used her charm again in front of the officer, and asked him some questions. The answers she got were exactly the same. The owner of this manor was Count Petunia, and this officer was from the Swordsman Regiment.
A squadron leader with the strength of a peak swordsman.
Sure enough, he still has some strength!
Let the swordsman 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, so they sat on the sofa in the living room. There was still warm milk tea on the coffee table. Although Siya didn't drink it herself, she very considerately poured a cup for Suldak.
"There should be nothing wrong with this manor. Next, I will expand the search scope." Suldak said.
Aphrodite took off the mithril mask, shook her head and said: "I always feel like something is wrong, let me try again..."
She walked towards the boy's room. Thea chased after Aphrodite and asked:
"What are you going to do?"
Aphrodite said bluntly: "I want to ask that child again..."
Thea was probably worried that Aphrodite's 'charm' would cause incurable psychological trauma to boys. After all, charm is about transfiguring the most feared or most coveted things in dreams, directly attacking the weaknesses of the soul.
So Thea said:
"Let me go this time..."
Surdak asked doubtfully: "Siya, can you also ask?"
"Don't forget, I am a spell weaver of the Naga tribe. In addition to water magic, I can also sing the songs of the sirens." Siya smiled at Surdak and whispered.
Suldak found that he really didn't know enough about the little assistant who was following him.
Siya opened the wooden door of the children's room. The room was very warmly decorated, with thick carpets on the floor. There was a wooden horse next to the window sill. In addition, the shelves next to the desk were also filled with various dolls.
Some wooden swords and shields have them.
Siya walked to the bed and sat on the leather stool where women often sit.
The boy was already lying on the bed and fast asleep. He was a little dishonest. Maybe his pajamas were too hot. He kicked off the quilt and rolled half of it around him.
Siya stretched out a hand, picked up the handkerchief beside the bed and wiped the sweat from the boy's forehead, and then sang a lullaby softly...
It was a very simple lullaby. She sat tenderly by the bed and sang softly. The singing voice was like a melodious beauty. Although the voice was very soft, it was very expressive. She sang a lullaby as if it were a beautiful song.
Like a small boat floating alone on the sea.
And the boy seemed to be lying on a small wooden boat, waking up leisurely under the moonlight...
At this time, the boy woke up in the room, and the ceiling transformed into a starry sky, the wooden bed turned into a small wooden boat, and the room turned into an endless sea.
Siya also changed back to her mermaid appearance at this time, lying on the edge of the bed with her hands, staring at the boy with eyes as blue as lake water...
Thea's method is completely different from Aphrodite's. Aphrodite makes people fall into a dream, and then uses charm to guide them little by little. It feels like hypnosis to inspect the other person's inner world.
Siya, on the other hand, wakes people up in dreams, and then uses illusions to change the surrounding environment into dream scenery, 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 saw that the sea shrouded in darkness was quiet and vast. He quickly held on to the side of the boat.
"Yes, I am in your dream." Siya said with a smile.
Then he stretched out a finger and drew a colorful rainbow quickly in the dark night, which looked very cool.
