Their bodies bent, their legs exerted force, and like agile cheetahs, they jumped over the fence.
Patter.
Stepping on the soft ground, they quickly moved forward.
Apart from the gravel path in front of the main entrance, there were no street lights in the garden. The darkness became their best camouflage.
The Stygian Snake took the lead and ran at a steady pace. "Do you see that window? We'll enter the castle from there. "
While speaking, Stygian Snake suddenly felt that its body was a little heavy, as if its legs were tied with a lot of weights.
He lowered his head, and with the help of the moonlight, he saw that there were many flower vines wrapped around his legs.
"Did I accidentally get entangled by running too fast? There are too many plants here …"
The Stygian Snake thought, but in the next moment, its eyes widened.
He had already slowed down his pace, intending to break free. However, he saw that the vines had taken the initiative to spread towards him. The vines within a radius of several meters seemed to have come to life as they crazily approached him.
"Be careful, something's wrong here!" He roared in a low voice. Then, he waved his saber, and a large number of vines were cut down. "Leave this place quickly."
He could see with his naked eyes that the flowers and plants in the distance were also moving. Some of the flower buds were opened like man-eating flowers, and some of the vines were coiled together like a dozen whips, lashing out from the sky.
This garden was too strange. Black Snake felt a chill in his heart. He didn't know what kind of plants the owner of Tree Shade planted here. He just wanted to leave quickly.
The Black Serpent Saber rose and fell rapidly, and the speed of his legs increased again. He no longer cared about the commotion.
The team members were even more flustered. They were using rune weapons bought from the Tree Shade, which could cut off these vines. But there was a hunter with a long spear. His feet were tied, and his hands were also tied. He struggled desperately to hold the spear. He was very desperate.
"Help, help!"
"No, don't come over."
"Not there —"
"Ahhh —"
The shrill screams made the Black Serpent even more afraid to look back. It just desperately waved its saber and rushed forward. Finally, it jumped into the castle from an open window.
Soon, two more team members jumped in through the window. They panted heavily, still in shock. When they turned around and saw that the flowers had become ferocious and could not reach them due to the soil, they finally heaved a sigh of relief.
"Unicorn, and pheasant … Are you two the only ones left?" Black Snake looked out of the window and could vaguely see two bulges in the garden in the distance.
If he was the one being tied up …
The Black Snake shuddered.
The other two also hugged themselves tightly. The hunter with a bird tattoo on his arm muttered, "My name is not Pheasant, I'm Eagle … Boss Black Snake, why are we in the castle?"
Only then did the Stygian Snake have the time to look around.
They were in the passageway of a certain castle. The walls on both sides were inlaid with crystal lamps, illuminating the passageway. It was very quiet here, except for the sounds coming from outside. Apart from that, there was nothing else, including the two companions who were left in the garden … They had probably become fertilizer for the flowers.
He hesitated for a moment.
He had chosen this window early in the morning. As soon as he found the danger, he instinctively ran towards this side, forgetting that they actually ran outside to get closer.
The unicorn and pheasant, seeing the boss's unhesitating action, followed closely behind.
Of course, Black Snake wouldn't say it was his mistake. After pondering for a while, he said, "Have you noticed that we've made a lot of noise in the garden? I just faintly heard screams from the other side of the castle. Those people must have had the same experience as us."
"But even so, there are still no guards in the castle. What does this mean …"
Originally, he was just looking for an excuse. The more he said, the brighter Black Snake's eyes became. His whole person became more confident.
"It means that there are very few guards in the castle, or there are no guards at all. Think about it carefully. The castle is surrounded by the Tree Shade Shelter's upper echelons. Those people are powerful, so they usually don't need guards. Outside the castle, there is a circle of terrifying cannibal garden. Ordinary intruders can only turn into fertilizer here. If we weren't strong enough, the result would be the same."
"But at the same time, we passed through the most dangerous garden and came to the castle. This means that the next action is much safer."
Black Snake revealed his standard eight teeth.
The unicorn and pheasant both nodded, but vaguely felt that something was wrong.
… …
After entering the castle through the window, the straight passage was longer than expected. The unicorn was a little uneasy, "Boss Black Snake, we've been walking for so long, why haven't we seen a single room?"
"Don't panic." Black Snake looked calm on the surface, "As long as we don't encounter the castle guards, it's the best situation. As for the others … The castle is only so big. As long as we continue to search, we will find valuable clues."
After they moved forward for a few minutes, there was finally a change in front of them.
It was a wide hall with brilliant chandeliers hanging from the top. The floor was covered with a red carpet, and a lifelike statue stood on both sides of the red carpet.
Black Snake smiled, "Look, there's a change. There are no guards in the hall. It seems that our operation tonight went well."
They walked on the red carpet. Pheasant's eyes swept over the statues on both sides and exclaimed, "I didn't expect the castle owner to be a person with good taste. These statues are very realistic. It's just that the animals on them are a bit hard to understand. There are so many strange shapes …"
The unicorn snorted disdainfully, "No matter how beautiful they are, they're just decorations." He gestured with the saber in his hand. "Strength is king. What's so interesting about these stupid stones? If it weren't for the fact that I wanted to avoid unnecessary trouble, I could've easily chopped these stupid stone sculptures into —"
He didn't say the word 'broken'.
The unicorn's hair suddenly stood up. He seemed to see the eyes of the strange beast stone sculpture looking at him.
It must be an illusion caused by being in the enemy camp … What the hell!
The two-headed dog stone sculpture next to him, the other head suddenly turned, four eyes were staring at him. The originally closed mouth also opened, revealing sharp teeth.
The stone sculpture came to life!
…
A few minutes later, the Black Serpent, the Unicorn, and the Pheasant were running in another long and narrow passage.
At this time, Pheasant's arm with the chicken head tattoo had disappeared. Blood kept dripping, and Pheasant's entire face was distorted because of the pain.
The unicorn was also badly injured. His whole body was scorched black, turning into a black-skinned unicorn. Only Black Snake was in a better state.
However, his mentality was broken.
He couldn't maintain his composure on the surface.
Walking through the garden, the flowers and plants came to life.
Walking past the stone sculpture, the statue also came to life!
Originally, it was supposed to be a secret infiltration spy style.
But why did it suddenly become like a fantasy?!
