Chapter 367 Descends from the sky

The mountain road at night is not easy to walk, rugged and thorny, but it is not difficult for hunters and druids who are used to wandering in the wilderness, and it does not cause any obstacles to the shaman. Dezko, who transformed into a ghost wolf, not only gained the appearance of a giant wolf, but also gained some of the spirit traits of the ghost - when the thorns touched his body surface, they would only pass by without causing harm to him.

They walked around the gates of the Blood Crusaders, made a big circle along the ridge, and came to the northwest of Madenhold Castle.

It has to be said that the geographical location of Madenhold Castle is unique. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides and only has a narrow valley in the southeast direction for entry and exit, which provides an extremely favorable defensive terrain for the Blood Crusaders. But for adventurers, after circumventing the city gate, what appears in front of them is like a nut that has been knocked open to cracks.

Because the slope of the mountains here is steep and difficult to climb, the Blood Crusaders did not build a wall behind the castle, and they did not even send observation posts here.

Adventurers stood on the edge of a cliff overlooking the brightly lit valley beneath their feet.

This is a bustling town with all the functional buildings that the Park-June-Lordon town should have - town halls, chapels, blacksmiths, timber factories, stables, etc. At the northernmost point of the town, there is even a small iron ore. Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the lord castle, Madenhold, which stands in the middle of the valley. It is built with strong huge white granite. Unlike the blue roofs of most human castles in other places, its roof presents a cold iron gray, and from the inside out, it reveals a unique cold and cruelty that belongs to the war-torn areas.

Echoing this rock fortress are the sentry towers all over the valley, the city walls and gates that guard the main roads, and the huge crossbows that arrow up on the strings. They jointly build a defense system for the Fireplace Valley and protect the only human settlement in the Western Plagueland.

"Let's go down here?" Dezko asked, looking at the dizzy cliff under his feet, looking back at the night elves who were busy strapping ropes to the trunks.

"No, it's you two who are going down here." Diago replied, shaking the lizard-skinned cloak behind him, straightening out the shadow spider silk umbrella ropes that were worn in the edge of the cloak. "I flew directly from the top of the mountain to the roof of the castle and touched it from there."

"Hey, wait, man," the Taurus grabbed Diago who wanted to jump off the cliff. "You have to tell us about the situation in the castle, or do we just sway in?"

Diago glanced at Dezko and regretted bringing the Taurus over. In fact, this kind of infiltration is not the better. He and the night elves have done this kind of work many times. Their cooperation has been quite tacit. With just a gesture or even a look, they will understand what the other party wants to do and what they want to do. He is not sure whether Dezko's joining will undermine this tacit understanding.

"You follow Masley and just follow his command." Diago said. The insider who passed the news to Tirio Fordine did not live in the castle. He also accidentally learned the information from others. As for more detailed information, he had no way to know it. Therefore, Diago could not make a more specific plan at all. Moreover, for adventurers, the more detailed the plan, the less fault tolerance it is. They prefer to adapt to changes and act cheaply.

After saying that, Diago jumped and jumped down from the cliff. With a "pop" sound, a light gray umbrella flower bloomed in the air and then quickly merged into the night.

"Okay, okay, I don't even know what I should do!" Dezko muttered dissatisfiedly. But no matter how he said that, the Taurus still followed the night elves and slid down the rope honestly.

...

Diago slipped quietly across the night sky like a night-flying bat, buildings passed by him. Between the buildings, dense crowds of people were busy like workers' ants. No matter who they were before the outbreak of the natural disaster war, they now had only one identity - refugees. Due to the shortage of supplies, they had to work hard to exchange for a little rations distributed by the Blood Crusaders, but this situation was becoming increasingly difficult, especially after the Great Crusader Dassorhan led most of the soldiers to Stantamom, the situation of the fireplace valley trapped in a corner was getting more and more difficult, and they were now even short of their troops to take the initiative.

Diago manipulated the mitril poles on both sides of his body and gently landed in the shadow on one side of the roof of Madenhold Castle. On the other side of the roof, a crusad sentry was patrolling back and forth in the walkway between the two towers. He had no idea that someone had fallen from the sky and landed a few steps away from him.

Diago relaxed his body, gently leaning against the tiles on the roof, and his lizard-skinned cloak covered his body, turning into an iron gray like the roof. Under the shadow of the night, if you hadn't gotten close and stared with your eyes widened and you wouldn't have noticed that there was a person hiding here.

He slowly squirmed in the shadow of the tower, approaching the small gate of the tower bit by bit. The patrol sentry looked around casually. In his opinion, this boring job was a waste of time. No one believed that the enemy could break through the gate and attack here. This was almost the safest place in the entire Fireplace Valley.

"Guru, Guru!" An embarrassing sound rang out on the quiet roof. Even Diago in the dark was shocked. If the sentry had not had any combat movement, he would have almost killed people.

The pitiful food I ate during supper had already been digested. The sentry rubbed his protesting belly, then took off the kettle hanging around his waist, took a few bites helplessly, intending to trick it over before talking about it.

"Let's go the last round and forth!" He said to himself in his heart. As a loyal soldier, he felt that he had achieved this level and was completely worthy of the rations he received every day. You know, when others were on guard, they just found a corner on the roof and slept until dawn. They did this for no reason - at least in their sleep, hunger would not feel so unbearable.

He turned around at the small door of the tower and walked towards the tower opposite. Just after he turned around and walked a few steps, a black shadow jumped out of the shadow behind him, quietly pushed open the small door and entered the tower.
