Chapter 70 - The turmoil trap (Part 2)
“Close the door-!”
With a bit of sorrow, a wizard standing outside the main fortress shouted with his magic wand in his hand. With the creaking noise of the door shaft turning and the dust falling from the ceiling, the whole hall sank into a dead darkness.
The apprentices hiding in all corners of the hall looked at each other and hugged each other to keep warm. In this darkness, no one dared to make a little sound.
Fear was almost written on their faces, and some people even began to sob in a low voice; or why did they complain that Ai did not go with the person who left, as if the smell of “fear” permeated the air.
Dean Peter and several mentors left, and the remaining mentors and older apprentices stayed outside the castle, leaving only the most ordinary apprentices in the hall, even if they depend on each other. Less than a little sense of security.
No one knows whether the castle can be kept; no one knows when this gate will be knocked open; and if the castle falls, what will they end?
The unknown fear is like an infectious disease, one after another, tormenting all the apprentices hiding in the hall, hiding in their corners, trembling, staring at the closed door, eyes chanting, praying for the holy The cross can shelter itself.
“Damn, **** … I’m just a wizard, not a barbarian with an axe, why should I run into such a thing !!!”
Isaac, who was about to be tortured by the fear in his heart, squatted under the table, cursing over and over again, and the trembling sound of his teeth could be heard clearly across the table.
Even a small wizard is not better than him to get there, curled up sitting in a chair, covering his mouth with his right hand to prevent himself from crying, tears leaking from the trembling pupil, the speed of the heart beat Faster and faster.
The sound of footsteps suddenly behind him made Ai Yin’s heart tight, her stiff body trembling slightly, and she didn’t even dare to turn her head. It wasn’t until the figure walked in that it was clear who the person was.
“Loren-?!”
“Where did you **** guy go just now ?!” Isaac, who was excited and frightened, scolded directly, and then hugged him indefinitely. “I am careful that the liver is almost scared!”
“Sorry, I was delayed for a while.” Isaac was soothed a little before Loren was able to sit down: “I was yelled at by Dalton’s mentor and I was just brought back.”
“How is the situation now?” The little wizard asked anxiously: “Why do the mentors close the door? And, I heard that both Dean Peter and Instructor Dalton left, is it true? “
“President Peter, they went to help the guards of the village.” Loren nodded: “As for the mentors closing the door, because the enemy will come to the door at any time, for everyone’s safety …”
“Boom-!!!”
The sudden roar interrupted Loren’s words instantly. The screams and weeping sounds in the hall that had just died still rushed one after another. The apprentices, who were already almost on the verge of collapse, completely broke the last string.
“Help … Who will save us … As long as you can leave here … Anyone …”
“Holy Cross will bless us … holy cross will bless us …”
“Everything is fake … all fake … I’m dreaming … I, I don’t want to die yet …”
……… The noisy crying and shouting made the once-cooled Isaac and the little wizard once again fall into fear, staring intently at the motionless Loren sitting there, but he Can’t help thinking with his chin up.
Listening to the voice just now, I am afraid that the gate of the castle has been knocked open-to know that Peter and Dalton have just left, and I am afraid that they have not walked far. According to what I said, the other party was ambushed from the beginning, waiting for them to leave before launching the raid.
Is definitely not a coincidence, but premeditated!
The closed doors ensure the safety of the apprentices, but also cut off all means of contact with the outside world. What is certain is that the people who raided the castle must have fought with the wizards waiting outside. As for how long they can persist, it is completely unknown. Maybe they can really hold until the reinforcements arrive.
After all, this is a castle. Even if the gate is broken, apprentices with little combat experience can use the city walls and towers to cooperate with their mentors to temporarily resist the other’s offensive.
Is this really what the other party wants?
Karan wanted to get a vampire hidden in the castle. And he already knew the exact location, so why should he launch a raid from the front? Isn’t it a better option to sneak in while Peter and Dalton are not there?
In order to survive, the wizards and apprentices in the castle will definitely work hard with him, and Karan cannot know this. Why did he have to choose this extremely stupid choice? This is totally unreasonable.
“Snapped–!”
Loren, who was still looking down, clapped his hands violently, startling both of them beside him. The little wizard was timidly closer: “What’s wrong, Loren?”
“Uh? Sorry, I’m a little distracted.” Lorren smiled reluctantly, still keeping his teeth clenched.
It’s too bad to hide and guess wildly. It’s not my style at all. Patted his cheek to calm himself, Loren decided to change his mind.
If the raid on the castle is not Karan ’s choice, but what must he do?
Yes, he needs an opportunity to enter the castle, but he doesn’t need to really capture the castle. If the goal is just to get a vampire, then he just has to do what he wants.
The biggest obstacles are Peter and Dalton. Now the two are gone, and no wizard can stop him. Under such circumstances, Karan wanted to sneak into the castle more easily than he thought.
“I’m so stupid …” Loren suddenly murmured to himself, making the little wizard who was completely unclear what he was doing shook his head back in fear.
Clearly knows the purpose of the other party, and is still entangled in the process here, focusing on what he does not need to know in front of him.
Yes, from the beginning, he did n’t need to know what Karan would do-no matter what tricks he played, his purpose was the vampire, as long as he knew this was enough, everything else was just blindfold!
“I might need to leave for a while.” Loren, who made the decision, no longer hesitated, and stood up while saying: “It shouldn’t take too long, but … it may not come back anyway at any time ~ www .mtlnovel.com ~ Where else can you go now that the doors of the hall have been closed, and all the enemies are outside, and … “Isaac asked at once, his eyes widened in surprise when he said half of it:” Would you like to go out and desperately with those people ?! “
“It’s very close, but it’s still close.” Loren smiled slightly and pressed Isaac who wanted to stop himself: “Of course … I can’t tell you yet.”
“Are you crazy? No one wants you to do this! The mentor Dalton is not here, and Dean Peter did not give you any task, why should I go out and die?”
“I didn’t go out to die, or because of the task.” He shook his head, his black pupil was very firm: “But I’m very sorry, because I really have no choice.”
If it wasn’t for Asriel, Loren didn’t want to fight desperately with a wizard for a vampire. But this kind of thing he could not let Isaac and the little wizard know.
“If … I mean if.” Although talking to Isaac, Loren turned his gaze to Ain: “Wait until tomorrow morning when I haven’t come back, don’t look for me, and don’t ever Have a relationship with me-it ’s best if you disappear when I ’m gone, and the dog blood point forgets me! “
“What stupid words are you talking about, but you are my school brother!” Isaac of course denied it: “It took me nearly half a year to tolerate your existence. If you disappear all of a sudden, should I tolerate another head? Irrigated potatoes ?! “
Although Loren knew he was expressing concern, Isaac really had the potential for sarcasm.
The little wizard was much quieter than him, but slowly sinking his head, Loren heard faintly when he left:
“Don’t … don’t get into trouble.”
