The girls were taken aback by the sudden appearance of the monsters. Fortunately, they were not easy to deal with. Ling picked up her scythe, Tita raised her gun, Tio took out her staff, Alisa raised her bow, and Laura gripped her sword ….
But that was it.
As the monsters reluctantly disappeared in the air, the girls breathed a sigh of relief. Then, Tita looked at Laura in surprise.
"Are there more monsters in this castle?"
"I don't know. I've never seen any monsters in this castle before …. I don't know why it's like this."
Laura was also dumbfounded. She did not know how to react. However, at this moment, Alisa glanced behind her and immediately yelled.
"Mr. Fangzheng is gone!"
"Huh?"
Hearing Alisa's shout, the girls turned around one after another. Sure enough, Fangzheng, who was supposed to be standing behind them, had disappeared. He was clearly standing beside the girls just now, but when the monsters attacked, the girls' attention was drawn to him. By the time they came back to their senses, Fangzheng had completely disappeared.
"Huh? What's going on? "
"Why did Brother Fangzheng suddenly disappear?"
Seeing this scene, the girls were dumbfounded. Only Ling helplessly stretched out his hand and pressed his forehead.
"Ah …. Big brother is doing this again …."
If the other girls didn't understand what was going on, Ling knew better than anyone else. After all, when she, Fey, Angie, and Ennaia traveled around the Kingdom of Libel with Fangzheng, Fangzheng had conducted this kind of sudden disappearance more than once. He called it "survival training" so that the girls could maintain a calm attitude and action in any situation.
In the beginning, Ling and the others also suffered a lot, but now … they were used to it.
But the others had never received this kind of "special training", so they were also anxious.
"Miss Laura, is there a trap in this castle?"
"I don't know … I don't think so …."
"But what do we do now? Mr. Fangzheng is missing and we have no way of contacting anyone else. "
For a moment, the girls panicked, while Ling silently observed from the side. Then, he saw Tida raise her hand.
"Why don't we blow up the door and go back to call for help?"
"Is this … okay? Miss Laura? "
Hearing Tida's proposal, Alisa looked at Laura. Laura hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"The situation is urgent. There's no other way. Let's do it."
"Alright!"
After obtaining Laura's permission, Tida excitedly ran to the entrance and fished out a large pile of prohibited items from her backpack. After assembling them, she quickly retreated.
"Everyone hide behind the chairs!"
Upon hearing Tianda's reminder, the girls immediately shrunk behind their chairs. Then, they heard a deafening 'boom'. A tremendous explosion resounded in an instant, followed by flickering flames that engulfed the entire door. But when the smoke dispersed, the door was still intact and didn't seem to be damaged at all. On the door, there was a strange rotating magic imprint.
"This might be some kind of barrier."
At this moment, Ling could not stand it anymore and hurriedly reminded them.
"Maybe our arrival activated the castle's defense system. We should go inside the castle and look. Maybe we can find the mechanism to remove the barrier."
Hearing Ling's reminder, the girls had no other choice but to give it a try.
So just like that, the girls first went to the left side of the castle and obtained a glowing ball. Then, they brought this ball to the right side and unlocked the seal of the passage on the right. Then, they entered it again and obtained another ball to open the second seal. Finally, they walked all the way up to the top of the castle …
"Why would there be such a troublesome mechanism in this kind of castle!"
Ling climbed to the top while panting. He was about to die of exhaustion.
"What is the Saintess of the Spear thinking? Why is it so complicated? Isn't this her home? Does she open the door like this every day when she goes out?! "
"This …"
Laura didn't know what to say and could only reveal an awkward smile. The other girls were also panting at this moment. After all, they weren't that old. Moreover, they had to fight those strange monsters along the way, which was enough to exhaust the girls mentally and physically.
"The one in front should be the last ball of light!"
After struggling to climb up the stairs, the girls saw a ball floating on the platform, emitting a faint glow. It looked to be the size of a basketball and was much larger than the light balls the girls had obtained before. It was also shining with a blue glow.
"I can't carry this by myself …"
"Let me do it."
Laura stood up and walked towards the huge metal ball of light. Seeing this, Alisa hurriedly ran to her side.
"I'll help you too, Miss Laura."
After all, Laura and Alisa were the oldest in the group, so they naturally had to do the hard work. So, the two girls came to the front of the ball of light and stretched out their hands …
"Whoosh —!!!"
However, to everyone's surprise, just as the two girls' hands were about to touch the metal ball of light, the ball of light suddenly emitted a dazzling brilliance. The next moment, everyone felt their bodies sink and were suddenly pressed to the ground.
"What, what is this?"
"Ugh … It seems to be some kind of powerful force …"
"I can't move!!"
While the girls were panicking, a huge undead monster gradually appeared above the ball of light. It was wearing a cloak like the Grim Reaper and holding a huge scythe in its hand. Laura's expression changed when she sensed the aura of the monster.
"How is this possible? How can there be such a powerful monster here … "
"Ugh … Are we going to die here?"
Tita also gripped the gun in her hand tightly and looked at the undead monster in front of her with unease. The undead monster looked at the girls in front of it and laughed coldly. It slowly raised its scythe.
Then, a black light flashed.
In the blink of an eye, the undead monster and the ball of light behind it were split into two at the same time. In the next moment, accompanied by wails and screams, the undead monster disappeared into thin air. The ball of light emitted a dazzling brilliance and suddenly exploded.
At the same time, the strange force suppressing the girls also disappeared.
The girls finally heaved a sigh of relief. Then, Fangzheng's voice came from behind them.
"Yo, looks like you guys did a good job."
"Mr. Fangzheng!"
"Big brother!"
Upon hearing Fangzheng's voice, the girls hurriedly turned around. As expected, they saw Fangzheng walking over from behind with a smile on his face. Upon seeing Fangzheng appear, the girls hurriedly stood up and ran to his side to surround him.
"Really, Mr. Fangzheng, where the hell did you run off to?!"
"Hahaha, I've been following you all this time."
"Huh?"
Upon hearing Fangzheng's answer, the girls were stunned. Only Ling sighed helplessly and did not say anything. The first time they discovered that Fangzheng was not around, they were much more frightened than the girls. At that time, they thought that Fangzheng found them too annoying, so he abandoned them … At that time, the four of them felt like the sky was falling down on them.
Later, when they finally found Fangzheng, the four of them rushed to Fangzheng's side and cried loudly. It took Fangzheng a long time to calm them down …
"Since you've been here all this time, why didn't you say anything? You made us run so far away …"
"Isn't that great? It's an unforgettable memory for you guys, right? "
"Ugh … This …."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's answer, Alisa, who was originally grumbling, exchanged glances with Laura. They had to admit that it felt good to cooperate with each other and fight side by side all the way from the bottom of the castle to victory. If not for the undead monster that appeared at the end, it would indeed be a memorable trip.
"Okay, we've solved the problem. It's time to go back. The barrier that shrouded the castle has disappeared."
As he spoke, Fangzheng looked out the window and saw that the light blue barrier that appeared before had completely disappeared.
"As an apology, I'll treat you to a feast when we get back."
"It's a deal!!!"
After returning, Fangzheng treated the girls to a sumptuous feast.
After that, Laura said goodbye and left. She said that she had to go back and inform her father and butler to change the management plan of the castle. The Arsaid family had always been in charge of the management of the castle. Although they did not know why, it was a fact that an unusually powerful monster had appeared in the castle. If not for Fangzheng's presence, the girls would probably have been killed by the monster with their strength.
To prevent similar situations from happening in the future, the management policy of the castle had to be adjusted.
"Phew …. That was great."
After enjoying a sumptuous meal, Alisa leaned back in her chair in satisfaction. Fangzheng chuckled.
"Are you full?"
"Yes."
"Since you're full, let's go."
"Huh? Where are we going? "
"To Ymir. Go, pack your luggage and get ready to board the car."
Hearing this, Alisa's face instantly turned pale.
