Suldak passed through the portal, and his vision suddenly went dark.
He closed his eyes, opened them again and found that he had walked into a bedroom. The light in the room was a little dark, and the windows had thick curtains. The temporary portal was placed next to the floor-to-ceiling bronze mirror. Che was walking in front of him.
The Great Swordsman St pulled Surdak aside so as not to affect his companions passing through the portal behind him.
The assault teams of the Norton Legion and the Jones Legion were the first to enter the portal. At this moment, they were already at the window of the room, opening the curtains a crack and cautiously checking the situation outside.
Several second-level warriors began to inspect the entire room and quickly occupied the roof.
Surdak discovered that it happened to be night here, and looked outside through the window, only to find that the night sky outside was actually dark red, and there were no shining stars. There were several bright yellow light bands in the night sky, mutually intertwined.
Passing through it, it's like the dry cloth plane is a huge gift box.
This single-story building was not big, and the 41 commandos seemed a bit crowded in the room, but they did not leave the single-story building.
The magician who remained silent the whole way laid a map on the coffee table in the living room. The leaders of the three assault teams gathered together, then pointed to the map and said to everyone:
"This is a single-story building on the outskirts of Mukuso City. It is a satellite town outside the city. It is not far from the city. It only takes half an hour to walk to the South Gate on horseback. There is a forest farm nearby.
.”
"When we leave later, try not to disturb the residents here. After forty-eight hours, we must carefully return to this stronghold and return to Roland Continent through the temporary portal."
"Let me reintroduce this map to you... Lord MacDonnell's manor outside the city is built on this mountain ridge. He usually lives in the manor. Only when he needs to handle official business, he will take the magic caravan.
Leave the manor."
"Members of the Luther Legion's assault team, you can follow this road to the west, reach this valley, and go upstream along the river to reach the castle outside the city. I have explored this road before.
There are almost no people there at ordinary times, so I guess we can cover up your whereabouts very well..."
The two great swordsmen Quintas and Chester looked at each other and nodded in unison.
This information is quite important to the Luther Legion assault team, at least it can save a lot of unnecessary trouble.
After saying this... the magician said to the two leaders of the Norton Legion assault team:
"Wait until daybreak, members of the Norton Legion Assault Team, before you can enter the city through the south gate of Mukusuo City. The city is now heavily guarded. Entering through the city gate is the safest way."
The two leaders led by the Norton family this time, one of them is also an archmage.
The magician paused for a moment, then pointed to a street on the map and continued:
"The city hall of Mukuso City is at the end of this road. It is a majestic circular building with white walls and red tiles, which is very easy to recognize."
"Arch Mage Merlin, Knight Bassien, you need to pay attention to the fact that Mukuso City Hall is only separated by a wall from the guard camp and the city defense security brigade. Therefore, once there is a situation at the city hall, the speed at which the guard camp and security brigade will come to support will be slow.
Very fast, don’t fight them for too long.”
"Although Lord MacDonnell doesn't have many second-level warriors under his command, I discovered a few days ago that there are many more magicians in Mukusuo City than I expected..."
"I suspect that if something happens here at the city hall, the magicians in Mukuso City will also hear the news and come to join the war."
"Once the magicians ride on the magic harpoon and fly into the sky, it will not be so easy to get rid of them..."
Archmage Merlin and Knight Bassien also looked solemn, saying that this operation would be resolved quickly.
After saying this, the space magician said to the great knight Trollope and the great swordsman Sabrina:
"We're going to stay and help clear away the traces here, and then we'll look for an opportunity to go to the central square portal."
"Everyone, please note that it has been half a month since I left the Ganbu plane..."
"I don't know what kind of changes will happen here after disappearing for so many days, so everything still needs to rely on everyone's adaptability..."
"Then I wish you all good luck with your next actions!"
After the magician said this, he and Lord Trollope got together and began to discuss how to approach the portal in the central square.
Sabrina Great Swordsman glanced at Suldak who was standing in front of the ogre, and nodded kindly to him, obviously recognizing him.
The Luther Legion's assault team was the first to leave the single-story building. In order to avoid overly large targets, the assault team members left the single-story building in small groups and walked into the woods outside the town in batches.
Great Swordsman Quintas led some members over the courtyard wall and dispersed into the houses and streets.
Surdak and the great swordsman Chester left from the other side. None of them rode horses this time. In order to avoid being discovered by the rebels on the Ganbu plane, everyone tried to avoid contact with the people in the town.
The two-headed ogre attracts attention no matter where he is, so he left first with Samira...
…
Under the cover of darkness, a group of people entered the woods outside the town without any danger.
The Great Swordsman of Chester and his party unexpectedly met a night watchman at the exit of the town. Fortunately, they were discovered early. They hid behind the low wall of shrubs on the roadside and were not discovered by the night watchman.
Suldak felt that the night watchman should be grateful. If he had twisted his neck to the left and right twice, he would have been ready to dig a hole to bury his body by now.
He found that the vegetation in the Ganbu plane was not much different from that in the Roland continent, but it seemed to be summer here now, and the surrounding vegetation was lush and green.
According to the map, this place is almost twenty kilometers away from Lord MacDonnell's manor, and a rapid march would take two hours.
If the assault team could cross Mukuso City, they might be able to get closer, but now not only can't they pass through the city, they have to circle around the outside of Mukuso City in order to avoid trouble.
Surdak found that the cities he saw in these planes were all very large. It was probably because the central city of the plane had plane portals that so many people lived together here.
The outermost city wall of this city is only three or four meters high. No one can even stand on the wall. There is a simple archery tower built with wooden frames every ten meters. Basically, there are no crossbows or catapults.
.
Surdak felt that this kind of city wall could not stop a charge of heavy cavalry at all. As long as they rushed to the bottom of the city and hung the hook on the top of the wall, a team of heavy cavalry could pull down this simple wall.
The assault team did not dare to get too close to Mukuso City. As the sky became brighter, a few bright yellow ribbons in the night sky gradually disappeared into the night.
The sky gradually became brighter, and the sky changed from dark red to light pink. At first, Suldak thought it was because the cloudy sky had blocked the sun. When the light gradually became brighter, he realized that there was no sun at all in the sky.
I can't figure out where the light is coming from, and I can't even find the shadow.
All members of the assault team were wearing ordinary linen robes. Taking advantage of the lack of pedestrians outside the city in the morning, they quickly found the river valley the magician mentioned according to the map guidance.
Swordsman Chester pointed to the river valley and said: "As shown on the map, we will walk up this river valley and we will see the manor soon..."
Without waiting for the instructions from the Great Swordsman Chester, three scouts from the assault team ran ahead and explored along the river valley, and Samira was one of them.
Her body is light and agile, and she can easily jump forward from the trees beside the river valley, just like an agile jungle cheetah.
The woodland here is not too dense, there are no horizontal branches, and there are not many bushes in the forest.
There are some broken marks on the lower branches of many trees with axes and knives. It looks like people often cut firewood in this forest.
This valley is very deep, but the river inside is very thin, with gurgling streams meandering down from above.
After walking a few kilometers upstream along the river, I saw a signal from the scout in front of me, indicating that I had discovered the manor where Lord MacDonnell lived.
Surdak was a little confused about the thoughts of these lords.
You can also get large tracts of land in the city, and it is not difficult to build a manor by enclosing the land.
Some noble lords particularly like to build their manors in remote mountains to enjoy the beautiful scenery of nature.
The group of people approached the manor along the river valley. The nearby mountains were probably the land of Lord MacDonnell, and no other residents were found.
A group of houses are hidden in the green woods, and there are several tall towers behind the manor...
The scout team found a mountain ridge opposite Lord MacDonnell's manor. From here, they could overlook the manor hidden in the mountains. There was a group of guards guarding the gate of the manor. There were also some guards passing back and forth on the corridor under the wall of the manor.
Every gate in the manor is guarded by guards.
The manor is really heavily guarded...
A group of maids walked back along the stone steps from the side of the river valley, carrying baskets and baskets of clothes. It looked like they had just finished washing the clothes under the river valley.
The manor in Surdak is clearly divided into two parts, front and rear. There is a vestibule and a garden in the front. All the houses are connected by long corridors. There are long rows of stables built along the walls. There are many people living in the manor.
Female dependents, but the living area of the female dependents seems to be very limited, and some maids can always be seen walking back and forth in the area where they can move.
But the back part of the manor looks a little weird. No one can be seen walking here, and no guards can be heard at the door. Everything seems quiet, as if it is a completely different place from the front yard.
world.
There are only a few solitary towers in the yard, but the gardening is pretty good. Some plants are growing neatly, and you can't tell what they are. They look a bit like cabbage.
However...Suldak doesn't think such vegetables would be grown in Lord MacDonnell's back garden...
Having not seen Lord MacDonnell's magic caravan, it is not certain whether he is hiding in the manor.
Due to limited time, Great Swordsman Chester and Great Swordsman Quintus decided that the assault team could not just observe and wait here, but also find opportunities to sneak into the manor to explore the situation there.
Just when everyone was wondering how to sneak into the manor, a four-wheeled carriage drove up along the mountain road in front of the manor. The driver seemed to be very familiar with this place. He could handle such a rugged mountain road.
The four-wheeled carriage trotted along.
There were some wooden boxes in the carriage, but they looked a little stained with blood, but the coachman looked in front of them indifferently.
Great Swordsman Chester bumped into Great Swordsman Quintus's shoulder and signaled with his eyes to the four-wheeled carriage on the mountain road ahead.
"You mean to let our people borrow this truck to sneak in?" Great Swordsman Quintus asked.
Swordsman Chester nodded and said proactively: "I'll go down below to see if there's any chance of hiding under the carriage and sneaking in..."
"Chester, let professionals do this kind of infiltration..." A second-level ranger in the team smiled and said to the great swordsman Chester, "I'd better go and find out."
"I'll go..." Samira, standing behind Suldak, said proactively.
The half-elf archer rarely spoke in the team, and her voice had a rustling quality. Even with just one sentence, she attracted everyone's attention.
Her face was covered with a veil, and her face could not be seen.
"I will hide..."
She explained lightly and took a step towards the dark place of the trees. Her body instantly became translucent, looming in the dark place. When she stopped moving, her body completely disappeared.
.
Although everyone knew she was still standing there and could still feel her, they couldn't see her.
Great Swordsman Quintas glanced at Great Swordsman Chester, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Okay, then it's up to you to investigate this manor. You only need to confirm whether Lord McDonnell is in the manor. Don't worry about anything else. Also, pay attention to safety. If you encounter danger, try to escape as much as possible. If you can't escape, you will have to give up.
We send signals..."
The Great Swordsman Chester warned Sami earnestly, as if he was admonishing a newcomer. LS Mira didn't say anything, but nodded slightly.
After the great swordsman Chester finished speaking, she passed by Suldak, turned around and walked into the woods. Every time she jumped, she was like an elegant cheetah running in the woods.
The figure is looming in the woods.
Samira quickly ran down the mountain ridge, crouched in the grass on the mountain road, and waited for the four-wheeled carriage to pass by on the road next to it.
With a slight leap, his body turned into a gray shadow and hid under the carriage.
Seeing Samira successfully boarded the four-wheel truck, a group of people on the top of the mountain breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Gulitem, who was squatting aside, secretly pulled Suldak and whispered to him: "Dak, do you smell a stink in the air here?"
