Lord of Glory

Chapter 117: Infiltrating the Fortress

Late that night, the ball ended in a lively atmosphere. Because of the long distance from the fortress to the camp, the Grand Duke simply arranged for some nobles to rest in the rooms in the fortress. Naturally, Archbishop Sarrier and Paladin also had a share in getting such a treatment. And in a room in the fortress. Orinna, who had never been so happy and was drunk, was carried into the middle of this room by the doppelganger. Closing the door, he placed the red-faced, giggling Orinna on the high class velvet bed.

He was just about to cover Orinna with the quilt and turn his head to leave. The giddy Orinna suddenly raised her hand and grabbed the doppelganger's hand, the latter looked back but saw that there was not the slightest hint of drunkenness on Orinna's face. In a serious manner with a bit of shyness, she said, "I want you to stay with me tonight." The doppelganger smiled faintly and broke Orinna's hand open, saying very gently, "You're drunk, go to bed."

Who knew that this sentence of the doppelganger made Orinna immediately puff up her mouth in anger and scream, "I am the leader of the group! I order you to stay with me tonight as the Leader!" At this instant, the doppelganger looked at Orinna with a blush on his face and secretly snickered. On his face, however, he solemnly bent down and said, "At your command, Captian." Saying so, in front of Orinna's face, he very calmly took off his clothes, revealing his majestic body. But just now Orinna was strongly drunk and saw the doppelganger’s body and after the split, suddenly blushed and picked up the quilt to cover her face, not daring to look at the doppelganger at this moment. And the doppelganger was slightly smiling. Mentally recited: "White Orchid will become my new starting point." After that, it burrowed into the quilt.

Suddenly, a scream came out of the room, followed by a light hum filled with love.

At this moment, in the room on the other side, Paladin stood alone on the window sill and looked at the bright moon in the sky. But there was sweat on his face, and his face was already a little red with excitement. However, Paladin frowned, clutching the window sill with both hands and cursing: "It seems that having a clone is not all a good thing. I'm having a hard time here!" Paladin lay on the bed uncomfortably, only feeling very hot all over. The distorted face suddenly shook! Paladin said to himself with an unbelievable tone: "Bleeding? Hehehe, I didn't expect it to be her first time, hahahaha!"

Paladin just smiled, but was immediately suffocated by the endless heat and couldn't speak. Just lying in bed like a dead body for half an hour. Paladin finally stopped the long torture. He simply got up and began to rummage through the books. As for the doppelganger, this is the most painful time. Just after a big battle, Orinna, who was like a novice, couldn't bear it, and soon fell asleep. But Paladin's spirit does not need any dormancy at all, and it is precisely this Alfred's body that needs dormancy. So there is such a situation. The doppelganger is awake, but the body is not under his control at all, and is in a dormant state. So he had to look at the pitch-black area with his eyes closed, and wait until dawn.

Just when Paladin began to endure the boring night again, Nashura and Adele, dressed in black robes and hoods, rode black horses and looked at the fortress not far away, and of course, the densely lit tents around the fortress. With guards patrolling back and forth. Nashura and Adele got off their horses and sneaked into the bushes not far from the camp.

When a group of five guards suddenly passed by in front of them chatting idly, Adele saw Nashura nod slightly. Immediately drawing her dagger from under her black robe, her figure blurred for a while, and in an instant she had already arrived in the middle of these guards. The guards only felt a black shadow suddenly flash before their eyes, before they could react to what was going on. They saw their vision begin to rotate and watched their headless bodies fall limply into a pool of blood. Darkness was ushered in before their eyes.

"As long as you give an honest account, not only will I not kill you, but I will also give you gold coins so that you can leave here and go home to retire!" In just a split second's effort, Adele lightning-fast decapitated four guards. With a hand covering the only guard that survived down, Adele kicked away the hook and sickle gun on the ground, and the dagger in her hand pressed against the guard's neck and asked threateningly.

At the moment when the guard was in a cold sweat of fear, not knowing what to do, he suddenly saw a person covered in black robes come out from the bushes on one side. Only to see him gently waving the glowing wand in his hand, immediately shocked to see a bit of mysterious runes flashing around him. A horrifying synonym jumped into the guard's mind, "Wizard!?" Adele lowered her hand after seeing the guard's fear and shock was overflowing at the sight of Nashura, but the dagger in her hand was still pointing at the guard's throat, killing him on the spot as soon as there was any movement.

When the guard saw Adele lower her hand, he glanced fearfully at the masked assassin and the magician beside her, and immediately shivered and said: ''What do you want to know, I'll tell you everything! As long as you guys don't kill me!"

The guard was very wise at the moment not to ask for the gold coins that were mentioned before, because he profoundly knew that no amount of gold coins could buy back his life. Seeing the guard compromising, Nashura paused slightly and suddenly opened his mouth to ask, "You have a Priest named Paladin here, do you know where he is?" "No, I don’t know." The guard answered very dryly, but the expression on his face was also very unpleasant. Even he cursed in his heart. This Father Paladin, just how much money does he owe others, and has caused such a big enemy to come to collect the debt!

Hearing the guard's words, Nashura frowned slightly and looked at Adele. And Adele immediately understood, glancing at the endless camps and towering fortresses and said, "Such a big camp, and there are countless places in it. Although it is possible to find this priest among tens of thousands of people, it will take a lot of time."

Just as Nashura's frown deepened, this guard, for the sake of his own life, immediately proposed, "Although I don't know where this priest named Paladin is, I do know that all of the accompanying priests all live on the west side of the camp. Nah, it's there in front." The inviting guard immediately pointed to a patch of tents not far away. Adele looked back with surprise, and underneath that veil, a dangerous smile appeared and said, "Thank you, my soldier."

When she was about to slice open the guard's trachea, Nashura took a step forward and patted Adele on the shoulder, preventing the life of the trembling and tearful guard from disappearing. Nashura met Adele's puzzled eyes and said, "Let him go, he helped us, and we even murdered an innocent ordinary person, I can't do it." Adele silently glanced at the man she loved, and finally couldn't resist his melancholy eyes, suddenly sighed helplessly, and knocked the guard unconscious with a backhand palm. She stood up and said, "I don't know if this decision is right or not, I hope you don't regret it." What responded to her was a very grateful smile from Nashura.

When the two of them, Adele and Nashura, left this place and sneaked into that camp to look for Paladin, who was reading a book in the castle guest room, this guard, who had been knocked unconscious on the ground by Nashura's one thought, could have been the trigger that led to the tragedy.
