    Chapter 17: Intimidation: Under the night, the dark castle looks like a towering pillar.  There are actually not many people here - although the new city is extremely prosperous and has a large population, the Dark Castle is not technically in the new city, but on the outskirts of the city - it is just very close.  The significance of this approach is unclear, but it is indeed against the norm, because other lords all built their castles in the middle of the city.  The advantages of placing the castle in the center of the city are obvious.  But the vampire's castle doesn't stand in the center of town, and he doesn't have a mansion in the city.  As everyone knows, if someone asks to see the Scarlet Duke, he should formally visit during the day - the process is no different from visiting an ordinary human lord.  Normally, vampires can be seen whenever they are at home.  Moreover, vampires are not unreasonable monsters.  So far, there has never been an example of a visitor being killed by him.  Even in the worst case scenario, if the two sides are not talking to each other, the vampire will just order the "unwelcome guest" to be kicked out of the castle.  To be honest, this approach is much more disciplined than many human lords.  "Everyone who has seen a vampire admits that vampires are not only smart, but also think rationally and logically, and have amazing judgment.  But everyone who has seen a vampire also admits that although a vampire looks like a human (and usually hides his fangs), as long as you spend a little time with him, you can clearly distinguish him.  Definitely not human.  "Those eyes those are the eyes of a dead thing, not a living person!" People who have met vampires said so in private.  The statement promoted by the church that "a vampire is a rotting corpse, but its own strong will and the power of black magic makes it live again" has been recognized by many people.  "However, you can come to see the Scarlet Duke during the day, but not at night.  After dark, the guards originally on duty at the entrance to the dark castle will evacuate, and the castle door will be closed - a clear sign that no visitors will be seen at night.  However, if the "guest" feels that this attitude does not stop him, things will become completely different.  As mentioned before, the so-called "Dark Castle" is just a tower in appearance.  Moreover, this tower has enough windows, but there are no troubles such as trenches, low walls, moats, etc. on the outside.  The shortest windows among them can even allow a relatively agile person to climb up with bare hands.  And even for those high windows, as long as there are hooks to help, climbing up is not troublesome.  In addition, since there are many "regular" guests who have entered the castle legally (usually by invitation) and got the opportunity to visit, the internal layout of the castle is not a secret - at least not in the eyes of interested people.  So it is easy to guess that in the more than twenty years that vampires have ruled this land, countless people have sneaked into the castle at night with various purposes.  Then, those who entered disappeared from this world.  Among them are said to include many famous thieves from all over the world.  This is also the reason why Ful said that before.  But tonight, Ashurufat became one of these "idiots".  It was already midnight. After dinner and before late night, Ashurufat arranged his puzzle as much as possible.  Speaking of which, he was lucky. He actually found someone with a similar figure to him and successfully bought him with a sum of money.  The man was willing to wear his full gear, including helmet, for five days.  During these five days, the stand-in will claim to be unwell and stay in the room without going out.  In addition, he also learned a valuable piece of news from the roadside: that is, the vampire seemed to have gone to the south to meet with the black magicians recently, and was not in the dark castle in the past two days.  As long as the twins are not involved in this matter, Ashurufat will be more than 70% sure.  He knew that he was very good at surviving in the wild - after this journey in the Chaos Realm, if there was one area where he had greatly improved, it was undoubtedly his ability to survive in the wild.  Whether it is tracking or counter-tracking, he is now enough to defeat the most capable scouts in the Seven Kingdoms.  Sylvania is surrounded by mountains.  As long as we can reach the wild, the sky is high and birds can fly.  Even a vampire can do nothing to him.  As for Ful - Ashurufat didn't mean to deceive him, but to be honest, for Ful, knowing nothing is the best situation.  The silence outside the dark castle is terrifying.  As the southernmost point of human territory, Sylvania can be said to be like spring all year round.  But there was no sound of insects around the dark castle.  This vision itself indicates that there is something wrong with the castle.  Now Ashurufat is wearing a suit.The sexy tight-fitting clothes are exactly like the "Night Thief" outfit in the children's storybook.  In his hand, he held a hook that was sold everywhere.  With this simple piece of equipment, he can freely choose between those high and low windows.  As mentioned before, the bottom window of the Dark Castle can be climbed up with bare hands.  Since the Scarlet Duke had the confidence to open such a short window, he must have been prepared.  But the question is, what exactly is this "preparation"?  Maybe it's magic, maybe it's a mechanical trap, maybe it's a guard, of course it's most likely all of them.  However, after being so close to the castle, Ashurufat was convinced that there was no magic in this "preparation".  Because even at this distance, he did not feel any energy flow from the magical wind. ? So it¡¯s a machine or a guard?  Ashurufat thought for a while and finally chose the shortest window as his target.  If the vampire chooses a mechanical trap, then there is actually no difference between high and low.  And if it is a guard, then the possibility of lax vigilance of the guards at the lower levels is much greater than that at the middle and upper levels.  The process of climbing into the window is not difficult.  In fact, the window itself does not have any traps, it is just an ordinary windowsill.  This is also consistent with Ashurufat's inference - if the trap is on the window, then the thieves and assassins who failed before will not disappear silently, at least they can send out dying screams to wait outside the castle.  companion heard.  Inside the window is a room obviously filled with debris, including some cleaning tools for cleaning.  With his superhuman night vision ability, Ashurufat could clearly see that the handles of these cleaning tools were very smooth, and it was obvious that they had been used frequently.  In other words, there must be people coming in and out of this room from time to time.  Such a place is not suitable for arranging mechanical traps.  There aren¡¯t even mechanical traps?  Ashurufat became more and more surprised.  But at the same time, he became increasingly wary.  That's not a good thing - it means the last option, the ward, is going to be very powerful.  Ashurufat still remembers Lalia¡¯s killing show.  If every vampire guard had Lalia's level of combat power Only three of them would be needed, and Ashurufat would have to summon his newly acquired energy shield armor.  But that is the act of drinking poison to quench thirst.  Wearing armor (even though the armor is very light) will inevitably affect his movement, and he may not be able to escape by then.  If that happens, Ashurufat can only hope that he can escape by being similar in appearance to the Scarlet Duke (which previously allowed him to have a great influence on Lalia).  However, it's best not to do this, as doing so is likely to draw the vampire's attention¡ªand a frantic pursuit at all costs.  It¡¯s one thing to rescue a prisoner from a vampire.  But affecting vampire rule is another matter.  The vampire may not pay much attention to the former, but the vampire will definitely go all out for the latter.  Ashurufa gathered his concentration, opened the door of the utility room from the inside (the door was not locked at all), and walked out.  ¡­ ¡­ The cell in the Dark Castle is unexpectedly clean and spacious.  Usually, prisons are instinctively associated with words such as dirty and smelly in people¡¯s concepts, let alone some people building water prisons specifically for abusing prisoners.  But the cells in the dark castle are completely different from this concept.  If you want to describe it, you can call it "small and neat".  At least, after the little girl woke up, she didn't find this place unbearable.  She and Lalia are neighbors, separated by metal bars, but their hands can still pass through the gaps in the cage.  This metal is not steel. Although the metal strips appear thin, they are much stronger than steel. Even Lalia's strength cannot shake it at all.  There are more than thirty cells lined up in the entire corridor, and currently there are only two of them.  There were even fewer guards, only half a guard - so called because that guard was away at least half the time.  The guard is naturally the same person as Lalia.  Although she is very beautiful, she seems inaccessible.  She always kept a straight face and said nothing. She would show up every once in a while, and then leave after taking one look at the two prisoners.  "The vampire should not be in the castle these days." Lalia said when the guard left again.  "Otherwise, I'm afraid he has already come to see us. Fei, too, probably won't be here either." In the past, the little girl always felt that Lalia was a very strong person - not only her fighting power, but also her confidence.  Even though she was besieged by the Chaos Legion before, Lalia always seemed calm and confident, without any fear at all.  But now, she can clearly feel Lalia's fear -??She's afraid of the vampire.  "Wrong guess." A voice sounded.  Then, a familiar person, namely Feng Chime, walked in from the stairs.  "The Duke is indeed not here for the time being but the captain is here. It's just that she is not available for the time being." "What will happen to us?" the little girl asked.  Seeing the wind chime, she felt a burning pain in her neck.  "It's up to the Duke to decide." Feng Chime replied expressionlessly.  "Or it's up to Fei. Maybe he will die." When she said the last words, she looked at Lalia.  The little girl is now the same age as the two, but on the surface, Lalia is at least seven or eight years older than Feng Chime.  In fact, the wind chime looks about the same age as a little girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old.  "Is there anything you want to do?" "I want to write a letter to my sister," Lalia said.  "I need paper and pen." "I'll get some for you." Feng Chime replied.  "If you die, I will find a way to give it to your sister. This is a small matter, and the Duke will not care about it. However, no matter what you write, it must be read by the captain before it can be sent out." She paused.  .  "If her husband could be someone elsethere would be no need for this extra step. It's a pity that your sister married General Berrell." Lalia stopped talking, perhaps acquiescing to the other party's request.  When Feng Ling wanted to leave, the little girl screamed.  "The murderer! You're still pretending to be so hypocritical!" "As for you," Feng Chime smiled, "Little girl! Don't worry, you won't die Theoretically, that's the case. You look very much in line with the Duke.  I'm sure he will love you very much!" There were so many malicious hints in her voice that the little girl took a half step back and couldn't help but hug her breasts.  Of course, she actually doesn¡¯t have any breasts.
