In the soul space, Todd looked at the clear and detailed diagram of the royal city on the computer screen, and asked in surprise: "How did you get this map in such a short time?"
"The alien race group is larger than you think. The map of the Royal Palace of Ulster was mapped secretly a long time ago." After putting a spoonful of ice cream into her mouth, Rachel closed her eyes with great enjoyment:
"It's better to be here. I can enjoy all the delicious food without having to worry about getting out of shape."
Todd looked at her funny: "But after you leave here, your belly is still empty."
"This wonderful taste has been in my mind forever. Isn't that enough?" Rachel put down the spoon, and the corners of her eyes were curved with a smile, which made this woman look charming in a way that is rarely seen in daily life.
Todd shrugged.
"You want to enter the palace to find Aisha?" After saying this, Rachel glanced at him: "Why didn't I see that she is so important?"
"As I said before, she is familiar with the routes and hydrology of the North, and is the liaison between Muxi Kingdom and the future barbarian outpost."
Biting the spoon into her mouth, Rachel said vaguely: "I still can't believe her."
"I have a way to control her, at least let her move within the allowable range." Todd took one last look at the map on the screen and reached out to close the computer.
——————————————
October nights in Armagh City are cold and damp, and few people would choose to walk on the streets at this time.
Todd, who was wearing a black cloak, walked through alleys and on rooftops at a speed so fast that it seemed like his eyes were dazzled.
Arriving at the foot of the royal palace in the center of the city, Todd looked at the tall city walls towering in the night. He took off all his clothes, folded them up, and placed them in a hidden corner at the base of the wall.
Then he transformed into a monster form, embedded his iron claws into the wall bricks, and climbed up along the smooth wall.
The strength of supernatural powers in monster form is much greater than that in human form.
For example, the magnification of the "Eagle Eye" power can be increased from the original six times to a hundred times; the "Perspective" power can not only penetrate thin objects such as wooden boards, but also penetrate thick stone walls and iron plates; "
"Night Vision" has the ability not only to see objects at night, but also to automatically identify the type of creature and even lock on a specific target based on the heat and magnetic field emitted by the creature.
Relying on these three enhanced powers, Todd transformed into a monster form, carefully avoiding sentries and guards, and successfully reached the meeting hall deep in the palace.
The hall was brightly lit, and neatly armed Ulster Guards stood on both sides of the hall.
King Conchieber was sitting on the throne, looking at his confidant Fergal who was kneeling at his feet.
Todd, who was lying on the wall outside the window, returned to his human form and adjusted his posture to ensure that he could hear their conversation clearly.
"You want to take over the 'Red Circle'?" Conchie Erbo said teasingly.
"Your Majesty, the Arena Director has just been vacated, and I think I am the most suitable candidate for this position." Fergal knelt down on one knee, put his right hand on his chest, and said respectfully: "You don't know something. Over the past year or so,
Not only was Chiquan unprofitable, it also suffered a loss."
Conchie Erbo frowned: "How could this happen?"
"The number of people watching the gladiatorial fights is no longer what it used to be. Although the previous manager used a variety of methods, including reducing ticket prices, the operating conditions of 'Red Circle' have never improved." Fergal raised his head and said seriously: "But I
I assure you that as long as I take office, the losses will be made up within three months."
Conchiebo was silent for a while, lifted the belt on his belly, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, this position is still the fattest job in the kingdom."
Fergal smiled bitterly and said: "My Majesty, what will it take for you to let me take over this position?"
Conchie Erb stroked his beard, and his voice seemed a little out of shape due to the faint excitement: "Cuchulin will never come back..."
Cu Chulainn?
Trainee from the Kingdom of Shadows?
A familiar name suddenly appeared, and I let people eavesdrop outside the window.
-----This is a gorgeous dividing line--

----This is a gorgeous dividing line---
Todd was stunned.
Conchie Erb shook his fat body and said with a smile: "And your daughter Emel's life-long event cannot be left unfinished, right?"
Fergal's body trembled, and his face, buried deep in his chest, suddenly showed an indescribable anger.
After being silent for a while, the king's trusted minister finally calmed down and said with difficulty: "Your Majesty, I made a one-year agreement with Cu Chulainn. If he returns from the Kingdom of Shadows, I will
I promised to marry my daughter to him. Even if the chance of his return is almost non-existent, I cannot break my promise in advance."
Unable to see the king's expression, Fergal could only catch a glimpse of his feet, stamping heavily on the ground, an action that expressed Conchieber's deep dissatisfaction.
Lowering his head lower, Fergal remained silent. On this matter, he had no intention of letting up. In his opinion, his daughter's happiness was far greater than anything else.
"In that case, let me consider the candidate for the Arena Director again!" Conchieber waved his hand and motioned for Fergal to disappear from his eyes.
Seeing the ministers who rejected him slowly exiting the door, Conchiebo became angrier as he thought about it. He patted the armrest of the throne heavily and shouted loudly: "Go back to the palace!"
Under the escort of the guards, Conchieber left the main hall and headed towards the bedroom at the back of the palace.
Using the powers of "Eagle Eye" and "Night Vision", Todd kept his body low and followed the King's Guard along the inner wall.
Watching the candles in the palace go out, Todd waited under the castle of the palace for another full hour. When Conchieber estimated that he had fallen asleep, he transformed into a monster form again, following the edges and corners of the city wall,
Moving and jumping, he climbed up to the balcony of the palace with his hands and feet.
As soon as he entered the outer room of the palace, Todd used his powers and saw many interesting things.
Flap trap, bell alarm trip rope, crossbow mechanism...
There were no fewer than fifteen traps and traps, large and small, in the huge king's palace. This not only made Todd wonder how many enemies Conchieber had, but also how afraid he was of assassins.
Using the flexible movements in his monster form to avoid all the traps one by one, Todd finally walked to the king's bed and saw the King of Ulster sleeping like a dead pig.
Slowly piercing the tip of the iron claw into Conchieber's temple, Todd began to search his mind for the information he wanted.
Except for the disgusting and unbearable indiscriminate killing, torture, and torture, Todd finally found a desired memory deep in the other party's memory.
In the prison in the underground passage of the palace, Conchieber was loudly scolding a woman Todd knew well - Ayesha: "You despicable thief! Where did you put the treasures you stole from me?"
Gone?!』
The sound of harsh whipping, the splashing of blood, and the sound of angry roars.
Ayesha was tied to a wooden frame like a dead corpse, with bruises all over her body.
She raised her head slightly and spat blood on the king's chest.
At the end of the memory, a huge fist hit Aisha hard on the cheek.
Withdrawing from the memory, Todd's heart was filled with anger. He raised his iron claw high and was about to slash at Conchieber's throat.
The iron claw stayed a few centimeters on the latter's neck, but did not fall after all.
If Conchieber dies, the Kingdom of Ulster without a crown prince will fall into endless wars and divisions, which will give the Kingdom of Connaught in the East the best opportunity to rise.
Once Connaught annexes Ulster, the northern barbarians will form a unified empire. As the Kingdom of Muxi, which is connected to it by sea and land, will first face the iron hoof from the north.
Killing one person is simple, but it triggers a series of chain reactions. How to deal with it is what you should really worry about.
An hour later, a farm on the outskirts of Armagh City.
A man in black carrying an injured person knocked on the back door of the country hotel. Looking at the old peasant woman who was looking around, he nodded and said: "Please tell Sister Rachel that I have brought a friend from the sea. She
