Ultimate Assassin System

Alston Castle occupies a very large area, and its architectural style tends to be tough. If the heavy iron gate in front is closed, it can be said that this is a small war fortress, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

At night, the party hall in front was brightly lit, and the sound of laughter and laughter continued to spread. The entire castle is in constant operation, with various types of butlers constantly arranging the work of waiters, kitchen, wine cellar, guest room... all kinds of services are available.

Beyond the vestibule and the garden a little further in, this is the interior of the castle. Except for the waiters who deliver things and the guards who patrol from time to time, almost no one moves around, and it seems very quiet.

At the round arch at the end of the garden corridor, there are two giant dogs with black and shiny fur and strong bodies lying on the ground, their fan-like tails sweeping the ground behind them boredly.

If someone with knowledge is here, they will definitely recognize it as a Northland wolfhound at a glance. This dog is fierce, stubborn and extremely ferocious, even a big man can't get close to him.

Tap, tap...

Suddenly, the two northern wolfhounds turned their heads to one side in unison, and threw something out of the flowers.

The noses of the two dogs twitched, and they stood up involuntarily. Their liger-like bodies moved forward, approaching that rolling... bone?

Getting closer, a figure suddenly stood up from the garden. The hairs of the two dogs exploded and they were about to bark and pounce on the man.

Woooo...

With two deep whimpers, the figure rolled over like a gust of wind, pinched the wolfhound's mouth, and twisted vigorously.

Kaka... The two dogs wilted and fell to the ground.

Damn it, a beast is a beast, it bites me when I give you food!

Stop talking nonsense, let's deal with it quickly and go. Another black shadow emerged from the flowers, dragged a wolfhound and walked towards the arch.

Needless to say, these two people were Tang En and Jack.

The two slipped out through the side door while the guests were focusing on Earl Alston who came out to greet him. After changing into a set of night clothes, he went straight to the inside of the castle.

This dead dog is quite heavy... Jack dragged the wolfhound's body into the shadow on one side of the arch, and put it in a prone position. Then take out a small loose button and place it under the tail to keep it moving. Under the shroud of night, no one would pay attention to these two lazy wolfhounds lying on the ground.

Go, go to the study.

Two ghost-like figures kept floating, and after avoiding groups of patrolling guards, they gradually went deeper into the castle...

In fact, the security of the castle is still very strict, but because of the party, most of the guards have been transferred to the front. So after avoiding the previous checkpoints, the pressure on Tang En and Jack was much less.

Go and go and go...

When Tang En and the others dodged above the eaves and avoided a group of patrolling guards, they finally approached the destination - the study.

The study in Tang En's impression is nothing more than opening up a room in a room for reading and office use. It is not too big, and it is easier to search. This is the reason why he chose the study in the first place.

But when he touched the study of Earl Alston, he was shocked. Is this a study? library...

It's no wonder that Tang En has such a mentality, because what is in front of him now is a three-story attic.

The study is naturally locked, but fortunately there is Jack, a professional thief. If Tang En came alone, he would have to find a way to tear down the windows...

To say that a professional is really a professional, Jack opened the rotary lock on the door with a soft wire in less than ten seconds. Pushing open the door and entering the room, Tang En and Jack gradually raised their heads and opened their mouths wide, your sister...

A ring-shaped bookshelf with a height of about eight meters burst into the eye, and various tomes of books stood in rows on it, which was absolutely spectacular! Absolutely domineering! Absolute pain in the ass... Is such a tall book easy to hold?

It turned out that the building, which looked like a three-story attic on the outside, was hollowed out inside. Apart from this bookshelf, there was a huge desk, and there were a few bonsai in the corner, making it look very empty.

Is there a secret passage here? Tang En looked at Jack.

Jack put on lambskin gloves at this time, held a small hammer in his left hand, and walked forward with a black iron object in his right hand, and began to study carefully around the desk, bookshelf, and bonsai.

Tang En naturally couldn't get involved in such a professional matter, so he stood aside and watched the domineering bookshelf.

Taking a closer look, Tang En was immediately happy. It turns out that those tomes are all brand new, without any trace of flipping through them, they are all decorations.

Thinking about the Earl Alston with a black beard and a thick cigarette he saw in the hall before, Tang En chuckled, I said that guy didn't look like he could read, no wonder some people said he was more like a pirate Too aristocratic.

Jack had already focused on the bookshelf at this time, and after a while, he stopped in front of a book, and the black iron block in his hand was actually attached to the wooden shelf.

Magnets... Tang En suddenly realized.

Jack took down the rows of books, and couldn't help frowning. The back was empty, and he knocked on the wooden cabinet with a dull voice.

The secret passage should be behind here, but the trigger method is hard to find...

Can't you force it open? Tang En asked a very unprofessional question.

Jack opened his mouth speechlessly: Brother, we are thieves now...and breaking this device by force will definitely call the police.

Now what?

I reckon that the trigger method is still in these books.

No way... Tang En looked up at the hill-like bookshelf, I might not be able to figure out this book by tomorrow morning.

There must be some clues. Earl Alston is vulgar, and he can't remember the complicated methods. Jack's eyes kept scanning the rows of bookshelves.

Hearing this, Tang En had no choice but to walk to the other end of the bookshelf and start observing. I have to say, the pressure is huge! After reading a few lines, Tang En felt dazzled and his neck was uncomfortable. A distraction, Nima, which line was it just now...

Huh!

Tang En, who had to start observing from the beginning again, felt a sudden movement in his heart, and his eyes swept back to those few books.

Warrior's Belief, Sword Forging Secrets, Brown of Thorns, The Art of War Command...why is something wrong, um, what is wrong?

The consciousness in Tang En's head told him that there were problems in these books, but the consciousness was not strong enough to blurt it out, it felt like a stick in his throat, which was really uncomfortable.

No hurry, no hurry... Tang En tried his best to stabilize his mind, If there is a problem, it means that one of these books is different from the others. Differences are hard to find, so first find common ground... er, common ground?

Pa, Tang En thumped his hands and face: I know!

Brother, keep your voice down... Uh, you know? Jack, who was almost dizzy watching, was awakened by the sudden sound.

Sorry, sorry, I'm a little excited... Well, look at all the books here, most of them are arranged in alphabetical order, but there are a few of them... For example, the thorn flower in this row, its initials Obviously different from the surroundings, it shouldn't be here.

Pa, that's right. This time it was Jack who was excited, and he quickly lifted up the ladder standing on the side, and then twitched the book, hiss...

With a soft sound, the book was put down from top to bottom, and it was obvious that there was a wire as thick as a pinky finger attached to it.

With this precedent, the next few books that were placed in the wrong place were quickly found out.

With the opening of the sixth book, the bookshelf where the magnets were attached first suddenly and silently slid open to the sides, revealing a bright silver metal plate with a handle.

Jack cheered, and rushed forward to pull the handle.

Well……

There is no passage behind the metal plate, but a huge crystal lock shining red, blue, and yellow light.

Isn't it... Jack scratched his hair and moaned, Three-color magic lock?
