Twenty Sided Dice

?A long time ago, Janet told Siegel that the defense of a simple castle is useless in front of the caster. Brick walls without runes, rooms without magic circles are convenient for magic attackers everywhere.

Janet is not a spellcaster, she just inferred this conclusion from her own deformation ability, but the actual situation is actually more exaggerated than her inference. Siegel prepared two things, one is the silent rune stone used by the dwarves, and the other is the killer he summoned from the elemental plane of air.

There is no fixed form of such killers, they vary greatly. The mages later named it the Invisible Lurker. This is an elemental creature that has no concept of good and evil in itself. They obey the summoner's orders and complete some special tasks as long as they pay the proper reward.

A fine sapphire as a reward, the invisible lurker said it would be very happy to serve the mage. It can only babble and speak in WindClan, but can understand Siegel's Common. The mage asked the invisible lurker to destroy the evil enemies in the castle according to the instructions of the raven.

Siegel then tied the Silence Rune Stone to Raven's body and let the two flying killers enter the castle.

As the name suggests, the Invisible Lurker will remain invisible forever, even if it attacks or is attacked. If it wants to tell others where it is, it will reveal the outline of a cloud. If you don't show up actively, even if you use detect invisibility or spiritual vision, you can only see a blur of gas, which is easy to be ignored.

While possessing a powerful stealth ability, the stealth lurker's tracking ability is extremely superb. As long as there is air, it can extend its senses and obtain a lot of information. This terrible killer is extremely difficult to guard against. Especially for those without spellcasting abilities or defenses against invisibility, there is no way of knowing where the attack is coming from.

After the invisible lurker finds the target, it can release a rapidly and strongly rotating wind, use unexpected strikes to quickly gain an advantage, and launch a rapid succession of attacks in the next time.

It can be invisible though. However, the wind brought by the attack can cause a distinct whistling sound, attracting the attention of others. The Raven's Runestone of Silence is designed to deal with this situation, to fill this loophole. Siegel watched them leave, then connected to Baron's vision and began to command.

The castle of Ampa's family is very large, with many rooms divided. Enough for everyone. The robber knights choose their favorite rooms to live in dispersedly, which also gives the invisible lurking monsters a chance to defeat each. Combined with lethargy from drunkenness, the "Knights" slept like dead pigs, snoring echoing through the castle passages.

One by one, the invisible lurkers slashed at the unsuspecting necks with wind pressure. Causes the same effect as a greatsword decapitation. Sometimes, in addition to the beheading of the sleeping victim, even the bed under them is often chopped off in two. The rune stone emits a faint light, not much brighter than the candle, but it absorbs all the sounds and perfectly covers the actions of the killers.

Room after room, enter through the window or fireplace and leave through the door. soon. The snoring in the castle gradually disappeared, and the servants who had been tired all day could finally rest well.

A **** smell spread from the castle, mixed with the stench from the hall. Several of the servants passing through the passage sniffled. Spotted the odor, but decided not to meddle. They left holding the candlestick, not knowing that the invisible lurker was above their heads.

Only the enemy pointed by the raven is the target of the attack. The invisible lurking monster is not murderous, and is too lazy to spend energy on other people. The servant only felt itching on the back of his neck, as if a cold air was blowing. They looked back quickly. But only see the empty silent passage.

The black raven is the black **** of death, flying silently through the castle. Every robber in the hall who bragged about his "deeds" was remembered by Siegel. They are paying the price for their atrocities.

Dick Knight has not fallen asleep at this time, he is excitedly waiting for the dawn. When Baron flew into his room through the window. Just happened to be seen by him.

"Where's the bird?" Dick blurted out, but suddenly found himself unable to hear his own voice. He couldn't understand what was going on, and slapped his cheek with the palm of his hand. The pain was the same as before, but it was silent.

What the **** is this? He stepped back in a panic, and looked at the long sword standing by the wall. As long as there is a weapon in hand, there is a chance to go all out, so he stumbles and runs over with his arms outstretched.

A gust of wind was blowing in his face, and he only felt himself being pushed back suddenly. The invisible lurker waved his arm and chopped off his head. Blood flowed down the killer's body, forming a slender trace in the air. The raven flapped its wings and flew to the next room, and the invisible lurking monster threw off the bloodline and followed.

Dawn the next day was a bit gloomy, and early in the morning mist from the north soaked everything wet. Ghost Mist Swamp is still trying to expand outwards, and is still trying. However, it is too far south, and the fog has no chance to stagnate into a solid body, so it is dispelled by the sunlight.

There were screams in the castle, and the servants who found the abnormality ran out one after another, and it was not until they put themselves in the sun that they gradually calmed down. Since the gate of the castle was not opened, people outside did not know what was going on inside, and could only guess at random.

I believe that the servants inside will soon be able to open the door of the castle, and the whole town will know the downfall of the robber knight. Knowing that it was time to leave, Siegel told Moore to pack.

The owner of the inn ran over, grabbed Siegel, pointed his finger at him, and said in a trembling voice, "You can't go, Dick will be here soon, and he'll take my daughter. You promise to take care of this. , if you fail to believe, you will be punished by the gods.”

"Dick won't be here," Siegel said, clapping his hands. "He's been punished and won't be a threat to your daughter."

"No, I don't believe you," the man said. "You've been at the inn, haven't gone anywhere, done nothing. Are you lying to me? Where's my axe? Where's my machete?"

Siegel uttered a few words, used the power of the spell to calm the man, and then opened his hand. "Remember what you said yourself: I have been in the inn, and it has nothing to do with everything that happened. It was the gods who punished the evil and helped you."

At this time, Moore came over and said that everything was ready to go on the road. Siegel comforted the innkeeper and asked him to go to the castle to see for himself, and he would understand. However, he reminded again and again that there is no need to say that he has been here, because he has more important tasks to complete, and leaking his whereabouts will bring danger.

Until this time, the tavern owner was still dubious, but he finally regained hope.

The people of the village and town ran towards the direction of the castle, and then shouted excitedly, "Dead, all dead". All the robbers turned heads overnight, and the servants were unscathed. There were more than 40 robbers and more than 40 rooms, and no one sounded the alarm. Even the powerful assassins in the story had no such ability. Only one of them knew the ins and outs of the matter, but he secretly swore to the warrior **** in his heart that he would never reveal the slightest.

The townspeople first comforted each other and talked a lot about this strange event. Then they came back to their senses and thought of the reserves in the castle. There was bread, apple flour, plenty of sausage and ale, and the wealth of the Ampas. The eyes of the villagers turned red, and they rushed in one after another, stepping on the blood-red ground to start plundering.

Some old and weak are too weak and can only watch. The owner of the inn tried to persuade the villagers, but was too weak. He turned his head back to the inn, and prayed to the **** of warriors with his daughter, hoping that the gods would forgive the greed of these people.

The chaos in the castle turned into a riot, and no one knew who started it, and soon it turned into a fight. The swords of the dead knights were picked up and handed into the hands of those with little or no martial skills. They could neither block nor stop, and when the first man was hacked to death, the situation became more and more out of control.

At this time, Siegel was far away from here. He and Moore were riding horses in the woods, and the sound of hoofs rang in his ears. Young attendants know what their lord must have done, most of which are related to spells, so they don't ask too much. They made their way along the banks of the galloping stream, leaving Ampa's castle far behind.

All the way to the east, the villages along the way have been looted to varying degrees, a large number of houses have been burned down, and the farmland has become scorched. Don't these robbers know how to restrain themselves, so they can be content with pushing everyone on the road of destruction? Could it be that when Ampa dies, conscience also dies? Siegel was very distressed and could not understand the thinking of these robbers.

The residents of the village heard the sound of hooves and hid from a distance, not to meet them. Don't know when the peace and trust of the journey will be restored?

They passed many villages and towns along the way, but could not rest; passing two castles, they were met with suspicion and hostile eyes, which made the young squire very uncomfortable. He'd always wanted to be a knight, to be respected, to be trusted, but now it's obviously something he didn't expect.

Siegel took this situation in his eyes~www.readwn.com~ but instead of comforting him, he told him the crueler truth: "If you are wearing the armor of a knight now, I am afraid you will suffer more scorns. Let's The status of two mercenaries, the current treatment is not bad."

Moore said he didn't understand why.

"The so-called mercenaries work when they are paid, which shows that dealing with them is regular. Even if the situation is bad, you can negotiate the price with the mercenaries, can't you?" Seeing Moore nodded, Siegel Then he said: "If you are a knight, but you have committed looting and betrayed your honor, then how can you get along with you, and what rules will you use to judge your behavior?"

More now understands why the most important thing about a knight is honor, because a knight really has nothing but honor.

"Do you still want to be a knight?" Siegel asked.

Moore thought about it carefully, but still answered firmly: "Yes, Lord Lord, I want to understand, it is precisely because knights only have honor, they will be single-minded and powerful." To be continued
