Only the requiem herbal soup called the Gift of the Dead can temporarily suppress the demon soul.

But sometimes, in addition to the requiem soup.

He even needs an extra vent.

Only then could he barely suppress the strong restlessness.

Evans drank the medicinal decoction and his mood improved a lot.

He took out the handkerchief from his breast pocket and wiped his mouth gently.

Then he stood up and walked towards the side of the manor.

It is sheltered by the shadow of the manor and the wall of roses.

The situation here cannot be seen from outside the welcoming gate.

He walked directly down the steps and stood on the soft grass.

He reached out and patted it.

Several black shadows slowly appeared beside him.

These are his black-robed scouts.

Especially his eyes and ears.

"Have they left the castle?"

Evans asked softly.

One of the black-robed scouts took a step forward and bowed to report.

"My lord, they left the castle at around 8 o'clock this morning."

"I wandered around the street for nearly an hour and then went to the snack bar."

"As for the follow-up situation, there has been no news yet."

"But I think they should get going."

Just as the black-robed scout was reporting, another black shadow appeared.

It was the black-robed scout who was responsible for following Zong Shen and the others last night.

After he emerged from stealth, he quickly saluted.

"Sir, they are almost arriving at the manor."

"When I rushed back early, they were only one block away from the manor."

"They split the team in two on that one block."

"The woman on the panther stayed behind with the lancers."

"Only the man riding the big wild boar came towards the manor with another woman."

The black-robed scout reported urgently.

Evans did not make any statement, and folded his hands in a thinking posture.

After a few seconds he asked again.

“Are there any of our bugs among these Bongcheng troops that suddenly appeared in the nearby streets?”

This question seemed to stump the scouts.

Restricted by communication methods, they cannot obtain external information in a timely manner.

At this time, Isidore seemed to have completed what Evans had asked him to do.

All the meals are almost ready, leaving one unmedicated ingredient.

It was placed on the dinner plate that was agreed upon before, and requiem powder was added to all the remaining ingredients.

This powder is refined by pharmacists, is colorless and odorless, and dissolves instantly.

It has a strong sedative effect and is used as a herb that can suppress demon souls.

Just a tiny bit of this refined and concentrated requiem powder can put a strong prairie bull into a comatose state within half a minute.

Isidor came to Evans' side. He had already figured out the information about these newly added patrol units.

He put his head close to Evans' ear and said quickly.

"This batch of state troops was transferred from the garrison in the north of the city."

"We haven't been able to develop bugs from it yet."

"So sir, we must make some preparations."

"At least make sure we can delay it for more than five minutes at the most critical moment."

"As long as we have these few minutes, we can handle it."

"If the other party is really prepared, I suggest we give up the action."

"I know you have the antidote for requiem powder..."

"Use the antidote to neutralize the requiem powder in the food, and let this become an ordinary lunch..."

Isido is not optimistic about this operation.

Because the other party not only stayed in the castle for one night yesterday.

Before leaving for the appointment today, there were frequent movements near the manor.

All signs are proving that they are being targeted by Baron Bezos.

If this time they really find evidence that Evans is the "Night Stalker".

I am afraid that even the Heywood family behind Evans can no longer protect him.

In this world, there are many nobles who do dirty things behind the scenes.

But no one dared to openly challenge the laws of the kingdom.

Once filth is exposed to the sun, it will be despised by everyone.

The nature of the matter is completely different.

Evans nodded first, then shook his head.

He first issued orders to the black-robed scouts.

"Everyone go out, and ask Poddes to lead the two teams out."

"I want you to prepare quickly at several street intersections."

"Once those state troops make any changes and try to rush to the manor."

"You just cause some disputes and friction at the street entrance and try to cause congestion."

After hearing this, all the black-robed scouts lowered their heads and saluted.

Then it disappeared.

Soon, the door in the other direction of the manor was opened through a gap.

A total of two teams of private mercenaries walked out quickly.

quickly dispersed to nearby street corners.

The black-robed scouts also took off their black clothes and pretended to be ordinary passers-by.

In a short time, only Evans and Isido were left in the same place.

Evans took out another bottle of light blue powder from his arms and handed it to Isidore.

"This is neutralizing powder."

"It's extracted from the rhizome of Requiem Grass."

"When necessary, put it in wine to neutralize the effect of the medicine."

"Their bodies look very strong. The requiem powder shouldn't take effect so quickly."

"We still have a lot of opportunities."

Isido took the bottle and nodded slowly.

He was fortunate that Evans was still sane in his requiem state.

The two of them walked towards the main entrance of the manor one after the other.

After a few minutes of delay, Zong Shen and the others had arrived near the manor.

When they were still dozens of meters away from the manor, the men who Evans arranged to welcome guests at the door discovered Zong Shen and Vereesa.

After all, the way Zong Shen rides Bajie is really eye-catching.

The situation was quickly reported to Evans.

He didn't bother to think about the arrangement anymore, and quickly took Isido to wait at the gate.
