It was a little cold outside the manor, and several teenagers and children who came out of the manor in aristocratic costumes in a hurry were shivering from the cold, and some even had snot running down their noses.

Chapter 347 The Meat Case in the Storage Room

The knights of the support squadron ignored the obstruction of the manor guards, knocked down two guards with their sword hilts, and forcibly rushed into Grenfell Manor.

Mrs. Grenfell was pale with anger, and she could barely stand still with the support of the housekeeper and maid. A group of guards in the manor were pushed away by the knights of the guard battalion. Standing up behind him, he rushed directly in front of the knight in the guard battalion, knocking the knight in metal armor like a bull.

The two squadron leaders in the guard battalion immediately pulled out their long crimson swords from their waists, and ran towards the guards in the manor. He aimed at the guards in the manor, and only waited for Captain Sauron's order to shoot and kill those guards who dared to resist.

"Enough! Edgar, stand down!"

Mrs. Grenfell yelled at the head of the bodyguard:

"Stop shedding innocent blood."

Hearing Mrs. Grenfell's order, the head of the bodyguard immediately stopped, threw the short stick in his hand on the ground, and spread his hands.

The guard battalion knights who were knocked to the ground angrily got up from the ground, one of them skilfully took out a rope from his arms, and they all rushed up together, and tied the guard named Edgar tightly. Really tied up.

Captain Sauron waved his hand and asked the knights around the manor to put away their alloy bows. Seeing that the danger was over, some guards of the manor came out of the bushes. They all raised their hands to express their disapproval will make any resistance.On the contrary, the strong head of the bodyguard, even though he was tied up with ropes, was still dishonest. He was knocked to the ground by the four guard battalion knights with a mace, and his forehead and left arm were smashed to pieces by the mace.

Karl came to Mrs. Grenfell's side, expressed his apology to her, and then waved to the knights under him. The knights in the support squadron entered Grenfell Manor one after another, and started searching.

Since the knights of the support squadron have been guarding outside Grenfell Manor for more than a month, the most talked about is the speculation about the use of many buildings in the manor. Now that they have the opportunity to reveal the answer, the knights of the support squadron can't wait Run over and check those buildings.

The group of children in Grenfell Manor were very sensible. They were shivering in the cold wind, their faces turned blue, but they still didn't say a word.

Angrily, Mrs. Grenfell was helped by the housekeeper and maid to rest in the hall on the first floor of the villa. Eleven noble children followed Mrs. Grenfell dully into the hall, like wooden sculptures. Standing behind Mrs. Grenfell, there was neither anger nor sadness on their faces, as if they had been silenced.

Mrs. Grenfell also showed indifference to the group of children, but her eyes frequently fell on the head of the personal guard who was covered in bruises.

Suldak noticed that her hands were tightly clenched into fists, with long nails digging into her palms, and some fingernails had turned bright red.

Carl went straight to the kitchen of the manor house and found the entrance to a basement. A group of knights surrounded the door with swords and shields. Karl ordered the pale butler, "Open this basement."

The butler didn't dare to disobey Karl's order, and took out a bunch of copper keys from his waist without saying a word, and opened the big wooden door of the basement. With a wink, a knight first threw a torch into the basement, and the flickering torch was thrown into the basement, and there was a clear landing sound.

The basement was very quiet. A bold knight held up a shield with both hands and bravely walked in through the door. After a while, the knight's voice came from the basement: "My lord, there is nothing inside."

Karl's expression changed slightly, he exchanged glances with Suldak, and then led them into the basement.

The basement of Grenfell Manor was actually empty. In such a large basement, not only was there no sign of a robber, but there were no sundries or supplies. echo.

In this basement, Karl could not find any traces of people living in it. He walked up from the basement without saying a word, and the knight commanders of other teams came one after another. Beside Karl, Karl asked: "Storage room, water prison , the stables, how about the animal pens?"

"Nothing was found either." Several knight commanders replied one after another.

The search warrant issued by the Hailansa Council was based on the clue that Grenfell Manor was hiding a gang of robbers. If this bandit gang could not be found in the manor, not only would Karl be in big trouble, but even the guard camp would be changed. They were extremely passive. This search operation was an application made by Karl, and many strong evidences were also issued by Karl. Originally, everyone was just waiting to rush into the manor and pull these robbers out of the basement.

But now it seems that things are not so simple.

Carl looked at the knights, and even Jasper's complexion was very ugly at the moment, Carl said in a deep voice, "Follow me to the castle tower to have a look."

The knights of the guard battalion wanted to search the upper floor of the castle, and drove all the maids and servants in the castle to the hall on the first floor. Except for the head of the guard who was beaten black and blue, none of these servants were too conspicuous. There is no murderous look in the eyes, and there are no calluses on the inside of the legs from long-term riding. It is impossible for him to be a robber who has been hiding and changing his identity.

Viscount Sauron was sitting in the hall of the champion's castle, and the atmosphere in the hall was freezing cold.

Mrs. Grenfell stared coldly at the guard knights in the hall without saying a word. The eleven children behind her simply lowered their heads. A row of maids and a row of servants including cooks, gardeners, grooms and gardeners After separating the left and right sides, not long after, the knights of the support squadron ran down from upstairs and said to Karl:

"Captain Karl, no suspicious robbers were found upstairs!"

Karl frowned slightly. The inside and outside of Grenfell Manor had been searched, but there was not even a shadow of a robber. Probably all the knights in the support squadron were filled with question marks: "Why? Will this happen? '

At this time, Mrs. Grenfell, who had been sitting in the castle hall, suddenly raised her head, with a sly look in her eyes, and a look of incomparable resentment on her face, she screamed at Captain Sauron: "I I will go to Consul Christie to complain about your atrocities, and I will definitely sue you bastards."

Captain Sauron raised his head and glanced at Madam Grenfell with disdain, then stared at Karl sternly.He told him: "Since there is no room for turning things around, Karl, why are you still standing here? Search again carefully, and dig three feet today to find these robbers..."

"Obey, Captain Sauron!" Karl gave a knight's salute, and immediately strode out of the castle hall.

Suldak followed Karl, turned around and walked outside with Karl. At this time, Mrs. Grenfell was staring at the magic belt on Suldak's waist. , the hatred in his eyes was hard to hide.

Suldak stopped walking as if aware of it. He turned his head to look at Mrs. Grenfell, and found that she was sitting on the sofa, looking straight ahead, as if she hadn't moved at all.

……

Karl and the ten captains of the support squadron came outside the castle, and searched the buildings around the castle carefully again, and it seemed that the robbers had never appeared in this manor at all.

At this time, everyone realized the seriousness of the matter, and the expressions on their faces were not very good-looking, and they all had a strong smell of gunpowder when they spoke to their subordinates.

Carl sat on the stone platform by the pool in the manor square, patted his forehead vigorously, and said to everyone: "Maybe our thinking is not right, after all, there are so many robbers, it is impossible to disappear out of thin air."

In the past month, Jasper has been staring at Greenfield Manor for more than half a month, and he has provided several strong evidences.

At this time, he also knew that if these robbers could not be found out, what kind of serious consequences would await them, and his face became more and more gloomy.

"Is there a detailed delivery list for Grenfell Manor?" Suldak asked suddenly.

"Here I am!"

A team leader quickly took out a sheepskin book from his pocket and handed it to Suldak.

Suldak carefully flipped through the sheepskin book. When he first started monitoring Grenfell Manor, the data on the sheepskin book hardly changed, but gradually decreased later on.Suldak frowned and said: "I think we have overlooked a problem. The food demand in Grenfell Manor seems to have been decreasing recently. It seems that no supplies have been sent to the castle in the past few days. So those robbers should have been gradually transferred out."

Hearing what Suldak said, the captains of the support squadron couldn't hold back their faces, and quickly patted their chests and said: "Our people have been staring at this place, unless they are chopped into pieces, it's their fault." might escape our sight..."

Karl suddenly widened his eyes at this time, as if he remembered something, he waved his hand, and said to the surrounding squad leaders: "Wait, chop it into pieces, maybe the answer is here, these bandits are probably dead gone."

"...and was chopped into pieces of meat. Just now I wondered why there are so many bloodstains on the meat table in the kitchen storage room. It's like a slaughterhouse. All the meat in Grenfell Manor comes from the farm outside. There is no need for on-site slaughter at all, so so many bloodstains are likely to belong to those robbers, we should go there to look for it." Jasper continued next to him.

Carl said to a small team leader: "Go outside the manor and bring in two hounds, maybe they will tell us the answer."

A group of knights from the support squadron hurried in from outside the hall with two hunting dogs, and walked straight to the kitchen behind the castle. The knights' footsteps were very firm, which attracted the maids and servants to look at these knights frequently.

During the search just now, Suldak didn't come to the kitchen, but just stood at the basement entrance outside the kitchen for a while. At this time, after he walked into the kitchen, he found something was wrong, because The kitchen of the castle was actually filled with the smell of human blood. This familiar smell Suldak had tasted on the battlefield of Moyun Ridge, and those not-so-good memories made him incomparably deep.

He blocked his uncomfortable nose with the back of his hand, walked into the blood-stained storage room, and saw a row of pork hanging on the meat hooks on the shelf in the storage room, and some pork was also facing the meat table beside it Wagyu beef, the meat table and the ground in the storage room were covered with blood stains, and even the surrounding walls were spattered with blood stains. Apparently, the knights thought that these blood stains belonged to the slaughtered animals.

After Suldak sneezed fiercely, he immediately withdrew from the storage room and whispered in Karl's ear, "It's human blood..."

The two thin-waisted hounds entered the storage room, sniffed around, and then pulled the dog-leading knight towards the wooden door on the other side. It was also inspected just now, and it seemed to be a woodshed. It was full of firewood, and the two hounds were outside the woodshed and barking inside.

Karl and a group of knights exchanged glances, and immediately some knights escorted the frightened cook and servants into the woodshed, and ordered them: "Move these firewood away..."

Under the force of the sword, the firewood in the firewood room was quickly cleared out, but in the room full of firewood, there were still many bloody footprints that were too late to clean up. There was a black iron door on one side of the wall. The blood on the door had almost completely dried up, and when the cooks saw the big iron door again, their bodies collapsed like mud. No matter how urged by the knights of the guard battalion, they were unwilling to take a step closer to the door. .

To be cautious, Karl did not open the gate without authorization, but let his knights guard here. He went directly to the castle hall, stood in front of Captain Sauron, and said, "Captain Sauron, we are behind the kitchen." A secret passage was found in the firewood room, something is wrong with this secret passage, I would like to invite..."

Before Karl could finish speaking, Grenfell, who was originally pale, instantly became bloodless. Her eyes widened, and the blue eyes quickly turned into black. She suddenly stood up from the sofa, and quickly Unfolding a magic scroll, a brief spell activated the scroll, and a huge magic circle emerged from the scroll, and that scroll instantly turned into a black breath, and then dissipated into the air.

'Bound Dafa'

Everyone, including Captain Sauron, was bound by a shadow ribbon in the castle hall at this moment, unable to move at all.

The head of the bodyguard also suddenly jumped up on the spot, breaking the ropes tied to his body. His body soared to a height of nearly three meters, and he twisted off the heads of the four knights who were guarding him. On the wall of the hall, he got a shield in the shape of a door panel, and a large number of black magic patterns burst out of his body in an instant, and he strode towards Mrs. Grenfell.

Mrs. Grenfell took out a magic wand from her bosom, a black eye was impressively tattooed on that arm, a book of black magic floated in front of her, her eyes were fixed on the pages of the book, and she chanted ferociously. lengthy incantation...

Chapter 348 Fierce Battle

It was the familiar shadow magic again, Suldak only felt his body being bound by the belt emerging from the shadows, and many knights around him were also firmly trapped in place.

The head of the bodyguard went berserk and turned into a giant over three meters tall to protect Mrs. Grenfell. No one thought that Mrs. Grenfell was a member of the Black Magic Priory, so they were caught off guard. The next ones were tied in place by the high-level shadow magic scroll 'Binding Dafa'.

Captain Sauron was the first to let out a yell, holding a double-edged sword tightly in both hands, popped out from the sofa, and pointed the double-edged sword directly at Mrs. Greenfield.

Those shadow belts were tied to him, but they couldn't restrict his movement, but the berserk head of the bodyguard was carrying a door shield, like a thick stone wall in front of Mrs. Grenfell. Blocked Captain Sauron's sword with the shield in his hand, and everyone with double blades slashed on the shield. The head of the personal guard was half kneeling on the ground by Captain Sauron's sword, and the stone slabs under his feet were shattered like a spider web. It was cracked, and the thick door shield was also cut with huge gaps.

A huge magic book page appeared in front of Mrs. Grenfell. This magic book turned into a black hexagram circle under Mrs. Grenfell's spell, and a star appeared in the center of the hexagram circle. The demon head was one meter taller than the diameter. That demon head was exactly the same as what Suldak saw at the gate of the Knight Academy.

When the demon's head emerged from the magic circle, it had a ferocious face and closed its eyes tightly.

At this moment, Suldak noticed that Mrs. Grenfell cut open her wrist with a dagger and poured her own blood on the demon's head, trying to wake up the sleeping demon.

'Sleeping Cloud'

Captain Sauron is not completely bound by the shadows at this moment, but his power completely suppresses the power of the bounds. There are several shadow belts wrapped around his body, and he cut the guard three times in a row, but he was killed by him with a thick shield. Resisting, although the head of the personal guard had red eyes, and was shocked by Sauron's captain's sword energy, his seven orifices were bleeding, but he vowed to die.

With a ferocious smile on his face, the head of the bodyguard held his shield like a bull, and slammed into Captain Sauron fiercely. On the contrary, he was knocked back a few steps, and the phantom of a crusader swordsman came from Sauron. The captain appeared behind him, and it was considered to stop Captain Sauron's retreat. The magic pattern armor on his body was emitting magical light, and the double-edged sword was steaming with a white whirlwind. The head of the personal guard cut off one of his thick arms from the side.

The head of the bodyguard did not feel any pain. He glanced at the arm that had fallen to the ground, and with a ferocious face, he slammed the shield on Captain Sauron again, preventing Captain Sauron from breaking through his defense and dealing with the people behind him. Mrs Grenfell.

Suldak knew that once the spell in Grenfelf's mouth was finished, the knights of the guard battalion present would probably fall into a deep sleep. At that time, the knights would lose their power to resist and would naturally be slaughtered.

He didn't want to wait until that moment, when a beam of light burst out from his body with a holy aura, and those shadow belts melted like ice and snow when they encountered the power of the holy light. Suldak regained his ability to move, and quickly approached Karl, a pale golden light emerged from his hands, and as soon as he touched the shadow belts on Karl's body, those shadow belts fell off one after another.

Carl regained his ability to move, and did not join the battle immediately, but took out a magic flare from his arms, rushed to the door and fired the magic flare into the sky.

A dark red magic flare exploded in the sky outside Grenfell Manor.

At this time, the blood on Mrs. Grenfell's wrist had already flowed onto the face of the devil's head, and the devil's closed eyes trembled slightly, as if they might open at any moment.

Suldak didn't dare to delay, and before he could save the other guard knights, he took out the alloy bow from his magic pocket and shot an arrow at Mrs. Grenfell.

Under her gaze, the feathered arrow seemed to be cursed by some kind of curse. It did not shoot into Mrs. Grenfell's throat as Suldak had hoped, but reversed its direction slightly and stuck in Glenfell's throat. On Mrs. Fell's shoulder, a handful of blood spurted out. Mrs. Grenfell swayed slightly, and the spell in her mouth paused because of this. Those venomous eyes stared at Suldak, and the chanting in her mouth ended at this moment ...

Following that, the demon head opened its eyes in the magic circle, black magic lines covered the demon's face, it showed a strange smile, opened its huge mouth and started to attack at the same time as Mrs. Grenfell. Chant the 'Sleeping Cloud' spell.

"Human pleasures bow before pain, truth is buried in the shroud of lies, ruler of hell..."

Suldak watched in despair as a cloud of black mist exploded from under Mrs. Grenfell's feet, presenting a black cloud that was more terrifying than the ring of black mist seen at the entrance of the Knight Academy, and exploded in all directions.

And all he can do at this moment is to raise the dwarf chain shield to block his face, and release his 'power', a phantom of a two-faced four-armed demon god emerged from behind.

Karl was also holding a long sword, and turned back from the entrance of the hall, just in time to encounter the spreading cloud of sleep.

'I rely on...'

Before Karl could utter an angry curse, he staggered and fell to the ground in the castle hall. The guard knights who were bound around him were not spared either, and fell to the ground one after another.

Only Captain Sauron, who was fighting with the head of the bodyguard, shook his body a few times, and a red light burst out from the magic pattern armor. Captain Sauron yelled again, although he walked crookedly like a drunk, but He was not hypnotized, but the captain of the bodyguard took advantage of Captain Sauron's trance, and smashed the door shield in his hand hard on him, and Captain Sauron's body fell backwards involuntarily.

The head of the personal guard followed closely behind. He only had one arm left at the moment, completely ignoring the fact that the severed arm was still bleeding out crazily, discarded the shield in his hand, and pulled out a dark red elbow With a round swing of the knife, he chopped towards Captain Sauron's head.

On the contrary, Suldak did not fall into a deep sleep this time. The face of the demon god Phantom Demon behind him was facing him. Avoid the 'sleeping cloud' magic.

Seeing that Captain Sauron was in crisis, Suldak threw out the dwarf chain shield in his hand without thinking. The chain on the shield wrapped around the long guard's neck several times, but failed to stop the giant shield It hit Captain Sauron, and Captain Sauron's chest was hit by the huge shield, spewing out a mouthful of blood.

Pulled by the chain, Suldak's body flew towards the head of the bodyguard. Suerdak took the opportunity to draw out the sword of craftsman, and when his body was about to hit the head of the bodyguard, the sword of artisan stabbed hard long back...

Mrs. Grenfell fixed her eyes on the two people who were still fighting in the hall, and when she saw the craftsman's sword piercing the back of the captain of the bodyguard, she immediately let out a shrill scream: "No! You lackeys of the Magic Union ,asshole……"

Chapter 349 Fighting 2

There was a craftsman's sword stuck in the back of the head of the bodyguard, and the blood shot out from the back of his heart more than two meters away. The dark red blood covered his whole body, and countless black runes lit up on his body in an instant. Drenched in blood, his tadpole runes turned into burning lines of fire on his flesh and blood.

The dwarven chain shield wrapped around his neck made him feel suffocated.

Seeing his neck and the chain in Suldak's hand, he immediately rushed towards Suldak, roaring furiously like a wild beast, his body continued to swell, and with more and more blood It spewed out, and the flames on his body turned him into a burning man, and the air was filled with the smell of burning.

Suldak flexibly avoided the pounce of the head of the bodyguard. He was like a reckless and mindless beast, relying on his instinctive wildness to kill the enemy in front of him.But then he found that his arm had been turned into a piece of coke in the raging fire, so he subconsciously looked at his body, and he looked desperately at the burning flames on his body.

"Margaret!" He yelled in the direction of Mrs. Grenfell, but his voice was dry and hoarse, sparks were even spouting from his mouth, and the flames from hell instantly burned his body The whole body looks like charcoal being ignited from a distance, but when the wind blows, the skin turns to ashes.

He walked towards Mrs. Grenfell, and as soon as he took a step, he fell down in the castle hall.

"Hull..." Mrs. Grenfell, standing behind the sofa, cried mournfully.

The head of the demon in the center of the magic circle slowly disappeared. Suldak watched the head of the bodyguard, Hull, collapse at his feet. The black magic runes burned his body, turning him into a charred black corpse. , His body exudes this burst of stench.

Suldak regretted that he didn't pull out the craftsman's sword from the back of the head of the bodyguard...

Captain Sauron Aldington touched his forehead with his hands, his body was still bound by shadows, and he was a little shaky under the influence of the sleeping cloud. The double-edged sword stood on the ground, and he took out a bottle from his arms. The magic potion was poured down, but he was still a little groggy.

Mrs. Grenfell glared at Suldak, and poured a bottle of magic potion that emitted a light blue magic stream into her mouth, and then her eyes turned blue, and the abundant magic aura overflowed from her body. Glenn Mrs. Phil drew a series of magic runes with the wand in her hand. These runes formed a magic circle in front of her, and a black shadow arrow quickly formed from the magic circle.

Then the shadow arrow turned into a stream of light and hit Suldak's breastplate in an instant. Suldak felt as if someone had punched his chest hard, and the shadow arrow dispersed into dozens of shadow energy , rushed into Suldak's body, the moment those shadow qi rushed into Suldak's body, the sacred aura wandering in Suldak's body immediately formed a barrier, completely melting those shadow qi.

The power of the holy light passed through Suldak's body, causing a pale golden light to shine on his breastplate. Suldak pulled back the dwarf chain shield from the bodyguard and put it on his chest.

Mrs. Grenfell did not expect that Suldak resisted a shadow arrow, and his body was not damaged.

She stared at Suldak in surprise and suspicion, another burst of flames burst out from the wand, barely giving Suldak any time to react, the breath of fire element emerged from Suldak's head, Suldak Ke only had time to raise the dwarf chain shield in his hand, and a ball of fire exploded from the top of Suldak's head. A wave of heat knocked Suldak to the ground and fell heavily on the ground.

The fireball scorched his hair a little bit, his face and arms were scalded, and even the dwarven chain shield was boiling hot, and black smoke came out from some places where it was connected to the leather.

This fireball made Suldak have some bad memories. He turned over and got up from the ground, and glanced at the sleeping guard knight in the castle hall, surrounded by some maids and servants in the manor, Glenn The eleven children behind Mrs. Phil also fell into a deep sleep, and even Captain Sauron was pushed to the wall by the ball of fire.

Suldak picked up a knight's long sword from the guard battalion knight who fell next to him, and leaned towards Madam Grenfell again.

Seeing that Suldak was about to rush forward in a few steps, Mrs. Grenfell showed a cruel sneer on her face.

She took off a copper whistle from her neck, and the shallow black magic pattern was engraved on the copper whistle. Mrs. Grenfell injected a trace of mana into the copper whistle, and a faint magic energy surrounded the copper whistle. Grenfell Madam blew the whistle without hesitation, and the sharp whistle sounded far away through the castle hall.
