Sword Sorcery - Chapter 35

[Chapter 35 Departure]

pat pat pat…

In the long corridor, only the footsteps of Aaron and Viscount Steve continued to echo, and in a somewhat too quiet atmosphere, Aaron couldn’t help but talk about the topic to relieve the boredom: “Speaking of which, Lord Viscount, you really have it. It’s amazing enough to actually do such a big ‘movement’ in the basement of your own castle.”

Hearing this, Viscount Steve couldn’t help showing a smug smile on his face, and said proudly: “Of course, I originally built this underground passage to the outside of the castle, and connected it to various important locations in the castle. It is through, but it took a full five years to build it in secret.”

“Apart from me, only Angelique knows about this place. It belongs to the most confidential important information in the castle. Even Luke and Willy don’t know that there is such a secret passage under the castle.”

When Viscount Steve said this, the expression on his face became a little lonely. Obviously, he thought of his cron Willie being attacked and killed by Caro Lance, and even another cronie Luke betrayed him, and finally died at his own hands.

However, Viscount Steve was once a battle-hardened ruthless man, and quickly put these useless emotions behind him, which also made Aaron feel a little stunned – this Viscount Steve to some extent , indeed, as Luke said, it is quite ruthless, and can sacrifice anything for himself.

Aaron was walking in the flat and narrow passage, looking at the surrounding walls and ground made of blue and black stones, he couldn’t help sighing inexplicably: “However, Lord Viscount, speaking of this secret passage connecting important parts of the castle , the overall scope is wide and the amount of engineering is large, if it is to be completely built, I am afraid it is far more than a task that can be completed by a few craftsmen, right?”

Hearing this, Viscount Steve was silent for a while, but finally said: “The reason why this passage under the castle can be called a ‘secret passage’ is naturally because very few people know it.”

“If too many people know about its existence, then the passage can’t be called a ‘secret’ – sometimes a secret is something that comes with a price, and I think the price is worth it, at least it Saved your life and mine, didn’t it?”

Aaron nodded silently, and did not express any obvious disgust, because he is not much different from Viscount Steve in essence-for himself, sacrificing some insignificant people is not a difficult choice to make .

Looking at the blue and black stone walls, Aaron knew how many artisans’ bones were buried behind these stone walls, probably enough to dye the entire passage blood red.

But what does this have to do with yourself?

Because he and Steve are stepping on the passage made by their bones and heading to the place of life outside the castle, he is even less qualified to scold Steve for his actions.

What’s more, if it wasn’t for Steve’s proactive move, he might not have been able to escape the castle safely and successfully escape the encirclement of the enemy soldiers.

The kind of boring people who clearly enjoy the fruits of others, but also deliberately promote their sense of justice, are the real heinous crimes——

You, as long as you can survive.

It seems that due to the dullness of the topic just now, the two kept their heads down and walked forward. However, as their physical strength gradually recovered, the two quickly increased their walking speed and regained a trace of their demeanor as full-fledged knights.

Soon, the two reached the end of the passage, and Aaron couldn’t help but joke: “Fortunately, that Luke and Caro Lance rebelled earlier, otherwise they would have discovered this one. The passage is a bit tricky.”

Viscount Steve couldn’t help but smile and said: “Yeah, fortunately those two idiots defected outside, otherwise my plan would really be in vain. Aaron, thanks to you being able to see my plan ahead of time. plan,

I never thought I had a talent like you before…”

Speaking, Viscount Steve’s expression became serious, and he said seriously: “I plan to go to the Kobos port in the Finnish Empire and go back to the Leo family where I originally belonged, and I have to rely on you for the rest of the way. Yes, Mr Aaron.”

“Of course, I’ve already made a ‘choice’ about this, haven’t I?”

Aaron naturally nodded in agreement. At the beginning, he had the idea of hugging the Viscount’s thighs, and took this group of fleeing hitchhikers. Now even Viscount Steve’s name for Aaron has changed to ‘Mr.’, obviously Steve Having recognized the reality, he regarded Aaron as an existence equal to him, not his former subordinate soldier.

This is also a normal situation. If it is not during the war, any official knight can be absolutely welcomed by the local lord. If he swears allegiance to that lord, he will at least be the commander of a private guard, which can be described as a high-level force in the territory.

It is very rare that there are three official knights like Viscount Steve’s territory. Of course, in fact, if you count the official knights with hidden strengths such as Aaron and Caro Lance, there should be a full five official knights. A knight – but due to the rebellion and turmoil just now, only Aaron and Steve are left.

Hearing the hidden meaning in Aaron’s words, Viscount Steve naturally laughed and patted Aaron’s shoulder kindly.

Then, the two walked out of this long and narrow passage and came to the empty room at the end. There was an exit at the top of the room, and through the exit, you could see the outside scenery——

Tall and dense trees covered the sky, and the green branches and leaves became pitch black at night. Occasionally, the moonlight scattered through the gaps in the branches and leaves. UU read www.

com It appears that the outside is somewhere within a forest.

At this time, probably hearing the movement below, a beautiful and delicate face stretched out from above the exit. It was Viscount Steve’s only daughter, Angeli, and after she saw Aaron’s figure, Suddenly he snorted suspiciously:

“Huh? Why are you here?”

Angoli recognized that Aaron was the soldier who disturbed her reading at the beginning. She didn’t expect that she would meet him again under such circumstances – this kind of soldier, in Angoli’s eyes, should have died in the castle .

“Angoli, don’t be rude to Mr. Aaron!”

Viscount Steve stopped aloud, smiled apologetically at Aaron, and then sincerely signaled Aaron to go up first and then himself, quite obviously showing his respect for Aaron.

In this regard, Aaron shrugged indifferently, accepted Viscount Steve’s sincerity, and immediately jumped directly, grabbed the edge of the exit with both hands, and lifted himself up with force.

Although Steve was poisoned, he was still a full-fledged knight who stepped into the ‘peak knight’ with half of his feet.

At this time, Aaron discovered that this was a forest located nearly a kilometer away from the north side of the castle. There were seven carriages and other fast horses parked around them. Some of the carriages were obviously used to carry Treasures, through the cracks in the carriage door, you can see a lot of gold utensils inside.

“It seems that this tyrannical Viscount Steve is really rich…”

Aaron couldn’t help but muttered to himself, but immediately saw another familiar person – the tavern owner Jerry.
