Chapter 257: Dumbfounded
In fact.
The back of the head contacts just now, Han Dong had the opportunity to kill the Great Lord.
However, the Great Lord could not die.
Extrapolating all the information Han Dong had obtained so far, even though the Knights had set the [Great Ghoul - Lord Stuart] as the final BOSS of this training set.
But it doesn't mean that the real master in the big manor is him.
In Han Dong's opinion, the one who is really in charge of this place should be the mysterious mother in the mother lair.
And the Grand Lord is, in essence, nothing more than an important spouse of the Matrix ... The reason why the Grand Lord is heavily medicated every day to support the 'weak' flesh is precisely due to the massive reproduction.
Once Han Dong kills the Great Lord, there is a great possibility that the Matrix will be enraged.
The following two scenarios will likely happen next.
The first [mother body rampage]: the Behemoth Knights will give open a public task shared by the entire squad, requiring the cooperation of all members to kill the mother body and purify the Grand Manor.
The second [Order processing]: the Order will intervene directly to deal with the Matrix and end the set.
In either case, it would be detrimental to Han Dong, who wanted to steal the "land deed".
Han Dong needs to successfully steal the "land deed" before the end of the set and without disturbing the Matrix.
In addition.
The tentacle means currently under Han Dong's control was not enough to directly obtain memories from the Great Lord's head ... The only thing Han Dong could do was to put the Great Lord into a period of stagnation of consciousness.
This period of stagnation is quite important.
......
Visual switch.
The squad led by Johnny, the meat shield warrior.
Holding the map given by Han Dong, they followed Han Dong's request and went through the hidden downward passage on the first level of the ancient castle to the core area of the [Ghoul Factory].
Since Han Dong had long given Dr. Swell a greeting.
Johnny and the others had an unobstructed journey, with only a few ghouls running out to interfere a little to show their respect.
Following the route marked out by Han Dong on the map, Johnny's team continued through the hidden passages and eventually came to an open hall area.
Eight load-bearing stone pillars and skull candles were used for lighting.
Giant stone seat set up in the centre of the hall.
Some of the stone pillars are broken, the walls still have a human silhouette, broken stone scattered all over ... as if they had experienced a battle.
Johnny scanned the empty main hall, "Then the freshman did not say that there will be a senior officer here? Michelle, can you sense the presence of the other side?"
The beast-eared girl shook her head, she had long since opened her 'Beast's Eye' and did not catch any living creature at all.
She crouched down and reached out to touch the stones scattered on the ground.
"It's a bit strange! This hall seems to have just been built not long ago, and these fight marks also seem to be artificially constructed ... deliberately arranged to look like a scene after a fierce battle."
"What the hell does that kid mean?"
Just currently.
Gu Gu Gu! The parrot hanging on the waist of the beast-eared girl kept making cooing sounds, conveying danger signals.
Boom!
The giant stone wall mechanism on the side of the hall opened by itself.
The interior corresponded to a huge fleshy passage.
"It should be the senior officer that that kid is talking about who is about to show himself!
All hands prepare for battle! Once we can kill the important officer in the ghoul's lair, we will definitely be able to obtain many points."
Johnny took out his strongest defensive stance, prepared to take a beating in advance, and created the best output space for his teammates.
Parrot call after parrot call in the waist.
Beast-eared girl Michelle always felt something was wrong, "Captain be careful ... once we find out that the situation is not right, we immediately retreat."
"Good!"
There was a burst of frictional sound of a huge object sliding in the fleshy passage.
A super large ghoul steadily slid out by the channel and landed in the hall area, the stone wall organs operating while the channel was hidden.
A closer look at this ghoul will find that its backbone is made entirely of metal.
Johnny was taken aback, "What a big ghoul! It must be the commander in chief in this underground lair ... Everyone prepares for battle."
The same moment.
The time of consciousness perturbation ended.
The pupils of the great lord's eyes returned to their original state, and consciousness gradually woke up.
"Just now... just now how did my consciousness layer get interrupted away? What did that kid do!?"
Anger.
The burning sharp pain sensation coming from his fingers, and the calf that was replaced by mechanical tentacles.
It had been a long time since he had suffered such a serious injury.
The 'main hall' had not changed, even the shattered stone pillars and walls were the same, and the High Lord did not become suspicious.
Meanwhile, the four familiar intruders attracted most of the High Lord's attention.
The armour, cloak, and equipment were all the same.
But these four intruders always felt something different somewhere.
However, because the consciousness is still a bit confused, plus more serious injuries and anger, the great lord just wants to clean up the invaders as soon as possible.
Just as the two sides were about to go to war.
A third one arrived.
Dr. Swell arrived with the tentacles of his lower body, full of fear, hands holding his head, which was swelling with tension.
"Grand Lord, it's not good! My detection device has sent an alert that your treasure trove seems to have been invaded!
Although the doctor had made mistakes, he had put a lot of effort into the Grand Manor, single-handedly creating the [Ghoul Factory], and was deeply trusted by the Grand Lord.
Moreover, the one who arrived here this time was indeed Dr. Swell himself.
In retrospect, the Grand Lord he did fall into a period of consciousness stagnation.
"Shit! The "Land Deed" ..."
The "Land Deed" was more important than the Grand Lord's life.
If it was really lost, he would fall into the endless abyss and never be able to climb back up.
No matter if what Dr. Swell said was true or not, he had to confirm the issue of the "Land Deed" himself.
"Doctor, you hold back this group of intruders at all costs for the time being ... I'm going to confirm whether the treasure trove has been invaded and the issue of the 'Land Deed'."
"Good! My Lord, you hurry to confirm! The "land deed" must not be lost!"
The great lord ran as fast as he could and rushed to the stone seat in the centre of the main hall.
Reaching out to touch the hidden button on the inside of the armrest, he tried to open the hidden passage to the treasury.
Dr. Swell naturally witnessed the whole process, touching the location of the switch in his mind ... at the same time, the doctor came to the front of Johnny's squad.
The four members of Johnny's team were on full alert as they stared at the swollen doctor whose breath was not weak at all.
Even because of the simultaneous face of two senior existence, the team has the intention of wanting to evacuate the place.
But the situation suddenly changed.
When Dr. Swell came to them, there was no hostility, but a kind of goodwill smile, and eight words came out of his mouth.
"Long live Lord Nicholas!"
Johnny and the others were confused, what is this?
The doctor continued, "You must help Lord Nicholas to stall the [Grand Lord] oh."
"This is Stuart Grand ... Grand Lord!?"
Johnny stared at the big ghoul that was drumming in front of the stone seat and took two steps back in fear.
"Don't worry, [Grand Lord] has been wounded, and I will also send an "army of ghouls" to support you ..."
After the swollen Doctor barked, he immediately went to the real main hall of the ancient castle by the transmission channel on the other side, and told Han Dong the information about the treasure vault switch.
As soon as the doctor left.
Many ghouls poured into this current faked out main hall, with Johnny and the others for company, staring at Grand Lord Stuart who had not been able to open the secret passage of the treasure trove in front of the stone throne.
"What is this situation!?"
Looking around at the army of ghouls assisting his party,
Staring at the big boss of the training that suddenly slipped down here.
Recalling the Lord Nicholas that Dr. Swell had called him.
The whole group was confused!
