Chapter 173: Investigating the King City at Night

Late at night, the hustle and bustle of Fenglu Mansion gradually stopped, and Devin, who was resting in the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

He turned his head and looked at the countess beside him. She was breathing evenly and smoothly, and she was already asleep.

He was not at ease and took out another bottle of sleeping medicine with extremely strong volatile properties, pulled out the bottle plug, and gently leaned under her nose.

He received this sleeping potion at a high price, and the effect was extremely strong. After only a while of smelling it, the countess' breathing sounded approaching and he fell into a deep sleep.

As long as the medicine fails, even if the entire city of Junston collapses and the earth breaks, the Countess will not be able to wake up.

Dewen then calmed down, got up gently, went to the dressing table in the room, looked at the mirror above, and began to modify his appearance.

The handsome mask slowly disappeared and turned into an extremely ordinary public face. It was a type that could not be found when stuffed into the crowd, and it was unremarkable.

He was going out for a trip. After changing his face, it would have nothing to do even if he was seen.

After doing all this, Devin left the room through the window, carefully closed the window from outside, and then jumped down from the third floor.

Standing on the snow, Devin looked at the royal city not far away, took a deep breath, his whole body was filled with strength, and he jumped dozens of meters, floating out like light smoke.

Since the countess was about to take him into the palace, Devin was about to test the defense of the royal city and step on the plate.

If possible, sneak into the royal city, explore carefully, and get familiar with the routes within the royal city.

If he is lucky and he finds the fragments of the Star Stone, he doesn't have to use the roundabout strategy so much.

In fact, in his original plan, he was to sneak into the royal city and steal things. The Countess Selt was just a backup strategy that Devin temporarily prepared due to the changing situation.

Devin was very fast and covered by heavy snow, and soon sneaked outside the walls of the royal city.

Thanks to this heavy snow, no one was stationed on the city wall on this cold night. However, he could not climb into this city wall like the outer wall of the royal capital.

The city wall in front of me was purely cast by spells and was very smooth. The surface was also engraved with a large number of runes, which were not complicated. To Afu's blessing, Devin could barely recognize this as a triggering warning rune.

As long as someone destroys the wall and tries to climb over, he will be immediately perceived by the mage near the city wall.

Devin looked up at the towering mage tower in the royal city, and also gave up the idea of ​​using dragon wings to fly into the city wall.

There is a fire-type mage in this mage tower. At such a close distance, he cannot guarantee that the fire element driving the dragon wings will not be sensed.

If the pair of Gemini Ice and Fire Masters discovered it and not tell me about it, the trouble will be great.

But Devin was unwilling to go back like this. He thought about it and finally decided to jump over directly with his physical strength.

The city wall is twenty meters high. To jump over silently, it requires extremely strong physical strength and superb skills.

This is an insurmountable obstacle for ordinary elemental warriors, but it is not difficult for German.

He retreated a hundred meters away, took a deep breath, leaned over slightly, and began to sprint.

Every step forward, the powerful and flexible power bursts out from his body, turning into a condensed force, and is transmitted to the earth.

At this moment, the earth sank slightly like elastic rubber, and then quickly bounced up, giving Devin a great reaction force.

The whole process was silent and the only movement was that within five meters around each footing point, the white snow, which was knee-deep, could not withstand the violent energy flow, was melted into flowing water in an instant.

This move can be regarded as a condensation of the essence of German martial arts and a manifestation of his strong control over his body.

At a distance of 100 meters, Dewen took five steps in a row, leaving five black snow melting circles on the snow.

At the fifth step, he flew up like a bird and shot into the royal city like a stream of light.

With a slight sound of "puff", Devin fell to the ground, and the sound absorption effect of the snow layer effectively helped him cover up the sound of falling to the ground.

After landing, Devin lay on the snow and was motionless. After waiting for a while, he saw that there was no movement around him, then he got up, hugged and sneaked towards the palace in the distance.

Unlike Storm in the Storm Kingdom, the royal city of Junston does not have an inner wall, and there are directly lined up buildings in front of it.

This greatly facilitated Dewen. He easily entered the palace group, dived east to Tibet, and began to investigate.

It was late at night and the sky was cold. There were very few people outside. Devin sneaked all the way, and there were basically no people except a few teams of patrol guards.

He did not know the way, so he could only carefully move himself around the outer area of ​​the palace and carefully avoid some possible important areas.

For example, where the king and the queen rest, there must be a strong guardian, and you must not break in random places.

This is not the Storm King Dustorm he is familiar with.

He walked along the way, remembering the route he had walked in his heart and leaving it for later use. Unconsciously, he entered a small courtyard deep in the royal city.

The lights were turned off in other places, but the lights in this room were still on. The figures in the room shone on the curtains and moved from time to time, but they were not asleep.

Devin became more cautious, and he carefully looked at the almost independent courtyard.

The decoration in this yard is very bright, and many lifelike ice and snow sculptures have been made, which seems to have taken a lot of effort. The layout here is more exquisite and luxurious than other places he has just passed by.

Devin immediately became interested, and the person living in this room might be an important person.

He was going to wait until the other party fell asleep and arrest him for a good interrogation. Perhaps he could get some important information.

With a certain idea, Devin quietly approached the window and prepared to take a closer look at the situation inside the house.

He was extremely cautious, and it took him half an hour to reach less than thirty meters.

When he arrived at the window, he didn't look at it. He just took out a simple refraction tube similar to a periscope, and found it into the gap in the curtains at the corner of the window. He quietly peeked into the scene inside the house.

This little thing is very practical and has a simple principle. It is purely the use of a mirror. Its advantage is that there is no elemental fluctuation at all, so you don’t have to worry about being discovered. It’s best to use it in this dangerous palace.

For this action, Devin prepared many practical small items like the ones.

The angle of the mirror is just right, which allows Devin to see the people in the house.

This is a young man, about thirty years old, sitting at the desk looking through a book. His sharp ears, silver hair, silver eyes, and skin was snow-white, and there was no trace of blood. It was much whiter than the prince of Hausen that day.

Devin felt a little disappointed when he remembered the words of the pedestrian on the street this morning. This person must be the so-called snow clan, a guest of the royal family.

Since he is a guest, he must not know about the fragments of the Star Stone.

It's getting late now, and Dewen has already walked all the places that can be walked around the royal city. He has already figured out the place he is ready to leave.

At this moment, the young snow tribe in the room actually walked straight towards the window, as if he wanted to open the window.

Dewen was shocked. He immediately put away the refractive tube, and at the same time he leaned his body tightly under the windowsill, curled up his body hard, and barely hid his body against the eaves of the protruding windowsill.

With a 'cruff', the window was opened. Devin immediately held his breath and couldn't breathe.

Devin could feel the snow clan was above his head. He was only one meter away from him, and he could even hear his breathing.

Suddenly, the light on the snow dimmed, and the lights in the house went out, and then a light sound came from the sound, and a white figure flew out of the window, which was the snow clan in the house.

This action scared Devin and his hair was blown out. He thought he had been discovered, so he wanted to prepare for the battle.

But he then found that the figure had no idea that he had looked back and left the courtyard gate and sneaked into the depths of the palace.

‘There is a situation!’

Dewen was shocked and then happy. He didn't dare to go deep in the palace before, but now someone is taking the lead, but his pressure is reduced sharply when he follows him.

Devin immediately followed him quietly.

The opponent's speed was extremely fast, even faster than Devin, who was not equipped with armor. His body seemed to be sliding on the snow, looking like a ghost.

This guy is at least a fifth-level powerhouse!

Fortunately, Devin's five senses are very sensitive, especially his hearing, which is extremely perverted. As long as he listens intently, any small sound can be captured by him.

With this ability, he kept hanging from behind the Snow Clan from afar.

After a while, the young man from the Snow tribe stopped in front of a courtyard deepest in the royal city. He stood at the gate of the courtyard motionless, as if he was feeling the situation in the courtyard.

Facing such a strong man, Devin dared not look directly at him, and he would definitely be discovered. From beginning to end, he lowered his eyes and observed the other person's figure from the corner of his eyes.

With this caution, the other party has not discovered the existence of German along the way.

Soon, the young man moved again, and his body turned into a phantom like ice and snow, mixed in the cold wind and swept into the courtyard.

This made German feel shocked in his heart. His body elementalization turned into ice and snow. This is a skill that only a sixth-level strongman has!

This means that the other party's elemental heart has been completely matured and the body has begun to be transformed.

However, Devin's shock lasted for only a moment, and he discovered other suspicions.

In terms of perception ability, speed and strength shown by the other party before, it is only at the fifth level, and at most it is in the middle stage. It is absolutely impossible to be at the sixth level.

If it was level six, Devin could not follow him quietly. He speculated that this ability to elementalize the body was likely to be the racial skill of the Snow Clan.

German literary and artistic masters are brave and persistent and never left.

After about five minutes, a phantom of ice and snow appeared outside the courtyard again and turned into a physical body.

At this time, the face of the snow tribe looked even whiter and almost transparent, which confirmed German's conjecture, and this must be a racial specialty.

The young man had a small wooden box the size of a fist in his hand, and his face was full of smug smiles. He put away the box and ran along the way he came.

His speed was much slower than before. Obviously, he consumed a lot of power when he turned into a wind and snow just now.

Seeing this, Devin completely relieved.

He was very interested in the wooden box on the snow clan and wanted to see what treasures it contained. To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation.)
