I'm a dragon, I only want to steal princesses

Chapter 133 Infiltrate the Castle
Outside the castle of the Principality of Xihe, Gannon and the disguised Anya were sitting in a tavern in the bustling neighborhood eating.

"Bavmet has been officially appointed as the head of the dragon slaying group. She seems to be planning to reduce the number of vanguard troops." Anya conveyed the report she just received from her subordinates to Gannon.

"Do you want to start the dragon slaying operation in advance?" Ganon saw the other party's intention immediately.

The number of vanguard troops has been reduced, and the required dragon-slaying equipment will also decrease. The most backward part of the dragon-slaying regiment formed by the Principality of Xihe is weapons. Weapons that can pierce dragon scales must use legendary metals, and forging legendary metals Only the dwarves have the technology, limited to the output of Mithril and Orichalcum, the completion of this large order from the Duchy of Xihe was very slow.

It seems that this druid named Buffmet doesn't care much about the success rate of the dragon slaying operation. In contrast, she wants to advance the operation as much as possible.

This is quite in line with Gannon's guess. She is not interested in the reward offered or the return promised by Grand Duke Di Pu. Her real purpose is to use the troops of the Principality of Sihe to test the Tower of Infinity.

So even if he didn't get enough accurate information, Ganon decided to take action in advance.

Rather than waiting for the opponent to get ready to hit the door, it is more appropriate for this side to take the initiative to catch the opponent by surprise.

"In addition, Buffmet has already lived in the Grand Duke's castle, and it is said that he has replaced the Grand Duke's personal doctor." Anya added.

"In other words, there is a chance to get rid of her together, right?" Gannon thought as he tore off the chicken leg, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed the bones together.

Killing Grand Duke Dipper is the top priority, but if possible, it's best to also get rid of that druid named Buffmet. Although he has never met him, his intuition tells him that this druid is full of mysteries It's a tricky hazard.

"I advise you not to act forcefully, just get rid of the Grand Duke first. If this Buffmet is not just extraordinary, or holds some tricky props, maybe he can't be killed easily." Anya persuaded.

She persuaded this not because she was worried about Ganon, but because of her own safety considerations.

Grand Duke Xihe himself is a master-level paladin with guards by his side. Buffmet is suspected to be a druid above the extraordinary level, and may also hide some special power.

These two goals were not something Anya could easily deal with.If Ganon insisted on killing Bavemet, the difficulty of this assassination mission would undoubtedly rise sharply. Anyway, she didn't want to give her life to Ganon.

"I'll look at the situation myself. You don't need to kill people. Don't worry." Ganon saw Anya's concerns.

"Just sneaking in is risky, okay? Can I count on you to save me if something goes wrong?" Anya curled her lips.

"You are still valuable to me, if you can save it, I will save it for a while." Ganon replied casually.

"Who cares?" Anya said and turned her head out of the window. After a while, she said, "Here we come."

Ganon also cast his gaze over, a carriage escorted by a guard of honor composed of knights drove across the square avenue, heading towards the castle.

Anya could perceive through the tracking technique that Mora was in that carriage, and they were waiting here for Mora to enter the castle.

"Then I have to start working too." Anya drank the rest of the soup, got up and went out.

"Waiting for your good news." Ganon replied, continuing to enjoy his lunch.

Anya blended into the crowd as soon as she went out, watching the castle open in the distance, ready to welcome the carriage.

At this time, the guards of the castle were basically concentrated near the city gate, and the people in the square were also watching on both sides of the avenue. After Mo La went to the border and "took herself in the net", the wedding date was put on the schedule normally again, and many people knew about it. News, discussing the anecdote that the Grand Duke is going to marry the dwarves here.

Grand Duke Xihe has been publicly accused twice by his own people, and his hobbies are well known in his own territory.Some people have sympathy for the dwarf princess, but more are with a mocking mentality.

For example, An Ya heard a speech in a tavern before:

"This is a perfect marriage. The Grand Duke got the 'girl' with the longest shelf life he had dreamed of. From then on, the families who gave birth to daughters in the Principality breathed a sigh of relief."

It's no wonder that Mo La would want to run away from marriage. Not only did she spend decades after marrying a disgusting old pervert, but she also turned her life into a joke for some worthless troublemakers.

Everyone in the square focused their attention on the avenue and the castle, and Anya quietly walked towards the towering clock tower on the square.

The moment she left everyone's sight, she cast concealment, and her figure disappeared like a drop of ink melted into water.

She doesn't really turn invisible or disappear, but people without special sentience still don't notice her presence.

She walked up the stairs quickly, passed the bell ringer who was resting on a deck chair, came to the top attic, and walked through the window to the top of the tower. The strong wind from above ruffled her hair.

She tied up her long hair casually, took out a strong crossbow, and aimed it at a certain place on the top of the castle wall.

A specially made crossbow bolt was launched, with a transparent spider silk behind it.

The dungeon where the dark elves live is inhabited by many monsters active in the dark world, including some giant spiders.

The dark elves bred these giant spiders, bred them as hounds and watchdogs, and extracted spider silk from their silk sacs as props.

The strength of these transparent spider silks is stronger than that of iron chains, but they are so thin that it is difficult to detect.

A bird-egg-shaped silk sac was fixed on the head of the crossbow, and it would burst when it touched something hard. The spider silk mucus inside stuck to the wall and quickly solidified.

Anya fixed the spider silk, and then used the spider silk as a zipline to quickly slide to the top of the castle. No one saw her figure. When she landed, she lit the spider silk with a match, and a handful of flames floated in the air In a flash, the spider silk just disappeared.

At this time, the carriage escorting Mora entered the castle, and the city gate was slowly closed.

Anya jumped off the city wall and was about to go to the place where the carriage stopped. The first thing she had to do was to locate Moira in the castle.

With her ability, she could only lurk for a day or two in this castle, and it was not easy to determine the whereabouts of Grand Duke Xihe in the castle, so she had to use Mo La to fish him out.

Anyway, the fiancée who was exchanged for a mine was sent to the castle, and the lecherous grand duke had to come to see and "inspect the goods".

Just as she was about to go straight across the courtyard, a patrolling soldier walked past nearby.

Anya was going to ignore the soldier at the beginning, and went around quietly behind him. With her concealment ability, most people might not be able to perceive her existence even if they just watched her walk in front of her, unless She intervenes with that person, or with something that person has perceived.

But at this moment, Anya sensed an unusual aura.

She was slightly taken aback, and carefully observed the patrolling soldier. From the appearance of the soldier, he was just an ordinary guard in the castle, but the aura came from this soldier.

The danger detection ability of the assassin profession is actually an intuition for the unusual things hidden inside things, such as abnormal magic power flow, enemies ambushing in the dark, hidden traps and so on.

And they can only vaguely feel this unusualness with a certain probability. To analyze the source of this "unusualness", they can only rely on knowledge and experience.

Feeling this kind of breath from the other party does not mean that this soldier is a master of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. On the contrary, Anya can see from the other party's gait and eyes that the patrolling soldier's attention is very lax, as if drunk Wine is average.

If someone has been cast with some kind of spell, or carries some kind of dangerous props, it is also possible to make the assassin's intuition react.

After thinking for a while, Anya chose to avoid this person first.

She didn't show up until the person disappeared from sight completely, and moved towards Mo La's position.
