Riding and Slashing

Chapter 107 Crazy Woman

The main castle of Changhe Town is actually the deepest inner city in the city, close to the gentle lake in the middle reaches of Tongtian River.

The inner city has a separate city gate and a high inner wall, and a large square is surrounded by the inner wall.

The innermost part of the square is the main building of the castle.

The tall main building is backed by the long river and lake, and the walls of the main building are connected with the inner city wall.

Even if the outer city wall of Changhe Town is captured, the inner city is still equivalent to a complete fortress.

This is also the normal state of the various pioneering towns in the eastern region of the Lion Kingdom. They are all based on the original small castle and continue to expand layer by layer.

On the whole, the inner city of Changhe Town looks like a luxurious courtyard with a large square. The main building has five floors, and the flag of Duke Elfwan is hung on the roof.

It is still the residence of Mrs. Bella, the widow of Duke Elfwan.

The guards in the inner city didn't stop Amy. After all, someone knew the little princess in Godric's family, so they didn't dare to point their weapons at her.

But an old housekeeper and a group of attendants "respectfully" stopped at the city gate.

It's normal not to allow people to go in. In fact, during this period of time, probably no nobleman who is not open-eyed will come to 'visit' Ms. Bella.

Everyone is not a fool, and no one dares to meddle in the affairs between the two dukes.

But Amy is just a girl, and it is normal to insist on visiting a noble pregnant woman, just treat her like a child who doesn't understand politics.

After all, many young nobles will act in the name of 'knowing nothing'...

Amy is not sure what is going on with Mrs. Bella, is she controlled by Duke Alma?Or some other deal?
But Amy must go in, here can take refuge.The more dangerous the place, the safer, this is what the teacher said.

Fawcett would certainly not be so stupid as to use a knife and a gun in the inner fort.

"Ms. Bella is about to give birth, right? I'm here to visit her."

Amy signaled the old housekeeper to make way.

"Madam is only seven months pregnant, it's still too early to give birth, and Madam is raising a baby recently, so I don't see anyone..."

The old housekeeper smiled and was very polite, but he didn't move a step.

Seven months pregnant is indeed inconvenient to entertain guests. If it is an ordinary nobleman, he would have turned around and left now.

But Amy has nowhere to go, and Fawcett is probably following behind. It is not appropriate for Klose and the others to do it directly, and it will be justified.

"I came all the way to visit, but you actually stopped me? This is inappropriate!"

Amy glanced at the old butler with a bad look.

The old butler had a professional smile, and his attitude was quite firm: "Madam said, no one will be seen, sorry, Miss Amy."

After speaking, he brought an old face closer: "Please leave here, Grand Duke Alma does not allow..."

"Snapped!"

Before the old man finished speaking, he was slapped and fell to the ground.

Amy did it with a rounded hand, and she wore buckskin gloves... She had never slapped anyone's face, but she wanted to do it for a long time.

"No one will stop me when I enter the palace! I didn't expect that there would be people in this small broken place! Get out!"

Amy has seen this kind of playboy behavior a lot, but this is the first time she has tried it herself, and she pretends to be quite like it.

But I have to say that this kind of behavior is very effective-the old butler covered his face on the ground and picked up his teeth, Amy directly swaggered into the square with her head held high, and walked towards the main building of the castle.

The attendants looked at each other in blank dismay, intending to stop them, but were knocked away by Klose and the others.

There were many soldiers in the square and on the walls of the inner city, but they couldn't see the situation inside the city gate. As a result, Amy led people into the inner city square in such a swaggering manner.

The attendants were a little overwhelmed, they had never seen any nobleman who would completely ignore the duke families of Alma and Alfuwan.

The one who dared to make such a bold move was obviously a naughty princess with a bad temper, and no one wanted to be in trouble.

The great swordsmen of Mettenheim were originally not allowed to enter the main building. It stands to reason that they could only stay in the square and wait.

However, after Amy slapped that slap, Klose took a group of hunks to protect Amy and strode towards the gate of the main castle building.

The attendants were still hesitating, not knowing whether they should stop him or not.

At this time, Fawcett has chased in.

But when he saw Amy leading people to the door of the main building from a distance, he stopped suddenly and didn't continue to chase, and he didn't even ask anyone to stop Amy.

It seems that he is also hesitating.

But then, he actually asked all the soldiers in the square to gather, let everyone exit the inner city square, retreated outside the castle wall, and closed the gate of the castle.

The gates of the inner city were shut.

Amy glanced back, is Fawcett planning to lock himself here?

That's fine too.

Anyway, so many people on the streets of Changhe Town saw him, and those businessmen were very familiar with Mai Xiangling, if he and the people from Mettenheim hadn't gone out, someone would know about it soon.

The main building is closed, and there is no one guarding the door.

It seems that after entering the square, the main building is closed?
Thinking about it carefully, those soldiers seem to be far away from the main building, either on the walls of the inner city or on the periphery of the square.

In this situation, it doesn't feel like guarding the main building, but rather guarding against it?

That's right, probably they have to prevent Mrs. Bella from escaping...

Amy thought.

Now that there is no one in the square, Amy has no scruples, and directly lets the Mettenheim people break in.

A group of people entered the main building.

The hall inside the door is very spacious, and there are many maids in it.

Seeing a group of strong men with big swords coming in, they wisely didn't yell, but shrank aside one after another. They seemed to be very experienced in such things.

Amy shook her head and smiled. Of course these people have experience. Maybe those so-called 'rebels' came in and killed Alfwan's family in this way.

"Where's Mrs. Bella?"

Amy drew her sword and pointed it at a maid.

"The madam is upstairs...the top floor."

The maid was very cooperative and squatted down very actively, still holding her head with her hands.

Amy was a little surprised—that group of people trained these maids very well, are they so sensible?

But before she had time to go upstairs, a group of people came down from upstairs.

It was a group of female soldiers in exquisite leather armor, more than a dozen of them, carrying spears and axes, and holding foreign daggers in their hands. It seemed that they might be the guards in the main building.

This building seems to be full of women, even the soldiers are women?

The strong men of Mettenheim stepped forward with their big swords in their hands, ready to fight, but the female soldiers did not attack.

The leader was a tall woman, wearing a strange light steel helmet, only her eyes and mouth were exposed, and her leather armor and boots were gorgeous.

The leather armor only protected the vitals, and the fair skin of the neck and arms were all exposed.

She stood on the stairs and looked down at Amy: "It's so beautiful... Tsk tsk... What a perfect virgin..."

She is laughing.

Those lips were extremely red, and against the snow-white chin, it even looked strangely beautiful.

After finishing speaking, the woman walked down the stairs slowly, and walked up to Amy: "Do you want eternal beauty and strength? Little beauty...hehe..."

This woman is at least 1.9 meters tall, about the same height as Klose, and looks like a giantess in front of Amy.

Klose stepped in front of her, pointing his big sword at this weird woman.

But this tall woman completely ignored the big sword and the macho man in front of her, and kept staring at Amy behind Klose. A circle of lips.

Obviously a molesting tone.

What do you mean?
Amy was a little hairy. She originally planned to kidnap Mrs. Bella, but she didn't expect to encounter a pervert!

Amy took a step back and drew out her sword: "Who are you? Where is Mrs. Bella?"

"The lady is giving birth to the messenger of the gods...hahaha..."

As the woman approached, Amy suddenly felt dizzy, and her whole body seemed to be a little weak.

"poisonous!"

Klose yelled at this moment, then took out a handful of grass foam from his body and wiped it on his face, and then attacked the woman with a big sword.

All the people of Mettenheim also took action, and the ten great swords flashed and waved a huge light curtain under the crystal lamp in the castle hall.

The only one who didn't act was Summer. He stuffed a handful of moss into Amy's hand: "This is wormwood, keep it in your mouth!"

Then hold a sword beside Amy for protection.

Since Klose and others were fascinated by Lisa Dilan with the snake heart stone last time, they have been carrying the Crucifera shards with them, and now they feel a little abnormal, so they use it immediately.

Artemisia arvensis itself is a common herb that can detoxify many kinds of toxins. Because of its very pungent smell, it can also be used to sober up or induce vomiting.

Although I don't know if this weird woman used the Snake Heart Stone, but after wiping a handful of Artemisia annua, Klose immediately regained his energy, anyway, it is indeed effective.

"Huh? Did you find it? Come down!"

Still smiling, the woman took off a round leather shield, which looked like the shield of a tribe in the southern desert.

Blocking left and right with the shield in one hand, it was able to block the full attack of Klose's two-handed sword.

However, after a few rounds, Klose did not fall down, but instead became more energetic.

The woman finally stopped laughing. She realized that her poison hadn't worked at all, so she drew a warhammer from her back and dealt with Klose seriously.

What was unexpected was that the woman's skill was unexpectedly strong.

In her hand is a strange one-handed hammer with two flying wing-like hammer heads.

But the hammer surface was large and flat, not like the mace commonly used by ordinary knights, but more like a carpenter's hand hammer with an elongated handle and carved patterns.

It stands to reason that this kind of blunt weapon with a wide flat hammer surface is not easy to penetrate armor, and it will be relatively bulky.

But in that woman's hands, she was extremely flexible, and even knocked Klose's plate armor out of shape with one blow.

Although Klose also fought back and hit the woman's shoulder armor with the advantage of the length of the big sword, but after being knocked back by the hammer, he didn't use any strength, and the woman's shoulder armor was not even cut.

Not only is this woman comparable to Klose in terms of strength, but her skills are no worse than Klose's!

This is also the strongest enemy Klose has encountered so far, except for the lord.

The heavy sword swung again, and Klose tried his best to fight with the woman.

But such a powerful woman was only her alone, those female soldiers with spears and axes were no match for other great swordsmen at all, and several of them were killed or injured in a short time.

Seeing how tough these tough men were, the woman blocked Klose's attack while looking for Amy's trace.

But Amy had already retreated very smartly to the corner behind the strong men, holding a crossbow in his hand - his teacher who was good at kidnapping said that if you are not good at skills, then don't stay in a place where you can easily be caught ...

And Sammer never left Amy's side.

The people of Mettenheim had already beheaded most of the female soldiers, but those female soldiers seemed to be very crazy, and the remaining four or five were still rushing to kill, feeling completely unafraid of death.

The woman finally realized she couldn't deal with these hunks—her shield was shattered after another successful parry.

She nimbly rolled out of the battle circle and ran upstairs.

"What a warrior! You can become God's servants!"

When she ran to the upper floor, her voice came down.

"heresy?!"

Amy realized that her so-called god might not be a good thing: "Klose, catch up with her!"

Klose had already chased after her while she gave the order.

The hunks also quickly cleaned up the remaining female soldiers, surrounded Amy and chased upstairs.

Those female soldiers who fought with spears and axes all fought to the death. No one surrendered, no one was afraid, and no one even spoke.

The maids downstairs were all trembling, and no one dared to get up.

"Find her out!"

Amy assigned the strong men to search layer by layer, and finally found the woman on the top floor.

By the way, Mrs. Bella was also found.

They are in one room.

A year ago, Amy had met Mrs. Bella and recognized her appearance. In her impression, Mrs. Bella was just a slightly extreme middle-aged woman.

But what Amy sees now is a somewhat weird...female lunatic?

She had not found Lady Bella in the castle master's bedroom, but in an indescribably eccentric room.

The room was filled with numerous sculptures, each as tall as a man, and seemed to be some kind of strange deity.

Or monsters.

This is probably all Mrs. Bella's work, because she is still carving a piece of wood with a knife at this moment.

Each of the sculptures in the room looked much the same, a weird female figure with goat horns on her head.

But all the sculptures, which have no faces and seem to be bloodstained, look weird and scary.

Mrs. Bella herself did not appear to be pregnant, at least not with a big belly.

But she was covered in tiny wounds.

The wounds were shallow and small, but the countless wounds had broken her skin like fish scales.

And Mrs. Bella's next action let Amy know the source of those small wounds.

"I swear by blood... I pray for your coming..."

The carving knife in Mrs. Nella's hand, which was carving wood, suddenly pierced her arm, and a few drops of blood came out from the carving knife, and then continued to carve.

With the movement of the carving knife, the blood left streaks of bright red streaks on the wood carving.

Amy shuddered, and the hairs all over her body stood on end.

Even Klose clenched the sword in his hand, his nervousness was beyond words.

This kind of pain is almost equivalent to being cut alive!

Or cut yourself with your own hands!
This is definitely not something ordinary people can bear.

But Ms. Bella didn't seem to feel anything. She kept her head lowered to carve the wood, muttering something in her mouth.

Seems crazy?
"Lady Bella?"

Amy called out, but got no response.

And the tall woman had been standing in the room talking, and she didn't seem to panic when she saw Amy lead someone to chase her and block her in the room.

She ignored Amy at all, but looked at Mrs. Bella seriously, with a smile still on the corner of her mouth.

"...That is the carrier of the goddess that the prophet said, have you seen it, that is the perfect carrier... Hahaha..."

The woman laughed more and more maniacally: "Only a noble and beautiful virgin...she can bring the goddess down! Bring the hero of Pendor!"

Mrs. Bella finally had a reaction, turned her head to look at Amy, and her originally dull eyes gradually became brighter.

It could even be said to be bright-eyed.
"Amy...Princess! That's right...Princess can definitely do it!...Pendor's hero..."

Amy shivered. Are these two lunatics?

Unexpectedly, I originally planned to kidnap Mrs. Bella to escape, but now it seems that these two lunatics may not be easy to deal with!
"Catch them first!"

Amy waved her hand, and Klose approached the woman with the hunks.

Concerned about the woman's superb skills, they just slowly surrounded her.

The tall woman was forced to the corner of the room step by step, she smiled again, looked at Klose and said: "Perfect warrior... Goddess Eredar will spoil you..."

Then he threw the hammer in his hand towards Klose.

Klose slashed the hammer aside with a sword, and then rushed over to catch someone, but there seemed to be a secret door flipped on the wall behind the woman.

That woman just disappeared!
"Follow her!"

Naturally, the strong men also saw the overturned wooden planks. Klose rushed over and shattered the secret door with a sword, but there was no room behind the door.

After the door was hacked, the river wind came to blow the sawdust in the room.

It turned out to be empty outside the door, and the Tongtian River is below!
Klose almost fell headlong.

This is the room at the edge of the castle. Outside the wall is the gentle and wide lake behind Changhe Town.

Looking down, there are huge ripples on the surface of the water. The woman obviously jumped into the lake directly from the height of the five-story building. Now she is no longer visible, and she is probably diving.

The people of Mettenheim can actually swim, but the heavy armor on their bodies does not support them jumping into the river... Otherwise, they would not have fallen into the sea before and fell into a coma.

This time it was impossible to pursue, and Klose retreated.

On Mrs. Bella's side, she was still staring at Amy, mumbling words in her mouth.

The carving knife in her hand is obviously not a weapon. An old woman in her fifties, with wounds all over her body, looks harmless - except that she is obviously mentally abnormal.

When dealing with lunatics, it's best not to force yourself...

"Ms. Bella, what's the matter with you? Since you still recognize me, why don't you tell me what's going on first, maybe I can help you?"

Amy intends to ask about the situation first, at least for now, she should be able to communicate.

Mrs. Bella didn't speak, but she smiled and her eyes became more and more strange.

In the end, he laughed wildly: "Hahaha... I know... I know!"

After yelling a few times, she stabbed a knife into her own chest!

"What the hell! Stop her!"

Amy was about to collapse, blurting out dirty words, who the hell is this...

She can now understand why the lord occasionally involuntarily swears.

It's really impossible to deal with lunatics and fools!
