The ancient castle has a total of four levels of structure.
The [Main Hall], where the Grand Lord is located, is in the center of the first floor.
Because of the design problem, the first floor does not have any access to the [main hall].
There are only two situations to get to the main hall area.
First, when the Lord needs to convene an important council or needs to have someone come to see him, he will open a one-way passage through the mechanism inside the main hall.
Second, from the secret study located on the fourth floor.
In the map given by the doctor, it is marked that there is a private elevator hidden in this study, which can be lowered into the main hall by entering the correct password.
This private elevator was mainly for the Grand Lord's wife, butler, and nutritionist, who could go to the main hall to visit him at any time.
Currently, many small groups are pouring into the ancient castle.
For security reasons, the Grand Lord will certainly not open the one-way passage on the first floor and can only go to the main hall through the secret elevator hidden on the fourth floor.
Han Dong has planned out more than three routes in advance, any route blocked then immediately change.
The first floor of the castle, excluding the main hall located in the center.
The rest are all miscellaneous areas, including kitchens, warehouses, blacksmith stores, stables, and so on.
The first step is to go to the blacksmith store.
The nearest route is through the kitchen, you can reach the destination by the hidden side door in the food pantry.
Of course, you can also choose the "corridor area", but it requires a longer journey, during which you need to cross several key areas, and the probability of encountering officers is a bit higher than the kitchen area.
"Miss Wendy, let's go through the kitchen ... to avoid unnecessary fighting."
Wendy was different from ordinary knights, knowing that from the time she set foot in the old castle, the battle would continue until the end of the training set.
But she still did not wear any armor.
There are only two pieces that look like equipment on the whole body.
A pair of cloth blacksmith's gloves blackened by iron filings, a blacksmith's hammer branded with a mark on the surface, very heavy.
Even if Wendy's physique is special, Han Dong is still a little worried that she will be injured.
She was an important pawn in the plan.
"This thing, for the time being, is lent to you for use ..."
Han Dong removed the 'Coral Seal' from his finger.
"Wow!!! Fine quality Fate equipment!"
"You are using a hammer type blunt weapon, through the "Sea Seal" effect given by the ring, there is a certain probability of activating the "Sea Turtle Hard Shell" effect when attacking, improving overall defense and providing a counter-damage effect.
In addition, this ring can also provide a good magic defense, can ensure your safety to the maximum extent."
Although Wendy had not yet been to the official Destiny Space, she knew how valuable this equipment was, enough for an ordinary knight.
"What about you, Vice-Captain ...?"
"I have a lot of equipment, don't worry."
The two people went around along the ring courtyard to the back side of the old castle, the entrance to the kitchen area.
Written with [kitchen important place, idle people to avoid] in front of the thick wooden door, also corresponds to a livestock breeding area.
The stench came from under the low wooden shed, where many mutant pigs were kept.
The biggest characteristic of these pigs is ... fat.
Even obese to the point that all limbs are degraded, leaving only a 'puddle' like mud fat body, whose meat content is estimated to be more than three times that of the average white pig.
Such fat pigs lose the ability to move, so there is a conduit inserted into their mouths, at any time they are feeding them nutrients.
"The exploration of the ancient fortress has just begun, and it seems that no squad has come to the back kitchen area yet ... Wait, someone!"
Han Dong's perception is exceptionally keen.
Immediately pulled Wendy and crouched behind the wooden panel on the side of the pigsty.
Not long after, the wooden door of the kitchen area opened, and a "pig-headed butcher" came out from inside.
Wearing a pigskin hood, the butcher has a height of nearly two meters.
On his exposed arms, there is a mixture of muscle and fat, and he also has many tattoos of sliced pork and such easily identifiable symbols as [P.I.G].
The two hands together, easily nearly eight hundred pounds of mutant pig lifting out, ready to take back to the kitchen for processing.
"If the back kitchen is full of such guys, it's a bit of a problem ... Wendy, let's do it!"
Just when Han Dong made a decisive decision.
Wendy surprisingly took the first step to rush out.
Seeing this, Han Dong deliberately stay in the dark to observe, intend to see Wendy deal with such huge living things cast level, after all, in the cursed space are dealing with the scarecrow.
"What level of power can be reached, Miss Wendy?"
When Wendy swooped over.
The pig-headed butcher also similarly sensed someone approaching, threw down the white pig in his hand, and grabbed at Wendy with both hands.
In terms of size alone, Wendy is smaller than this huge, two-meter-tall pork butcher by one.
Facing the butcher's grasping hands, Wen Li directly slapped away.
The crisp sound of cracking bones rang out.
This slap not only will the butcher hands slapped away, and even let the finger bones obviously misaligned and fractured.
Did not use the blacksmith hammer in his hand, but with his free left hand squeezed into a fist, an uppercut hit the butcher's abdomen ... fist completely into the abdomen.
The pig-headed butcher fell to the ground with a bang and was just gone.
The gap between the two is obvious now.
Wendy, the freakishly powerful woman, had a higher strength value than Han Dong had expected ... Seeing such a scene, Han Dong revealed a smile as Wendy, the chess piece, became more solid.
" Vice-captain, what do we do next ah?"
"How to deal with the white pig before cooking, we will do it."
...... (the treatment process has been omitted)
The back kitchen door opened.
The 'pig-headed butcher' returned to the kitchen area.
However, hidden under the butcher's outer skin was Han Dong and Wendy ... Wendy easily resisted Han Dong on her shoulders, who then perfected the disguise through the head's imitation ability to erase all flaws.
The kitchen is still hovering many pig-headed butchers.
These butchers all came from the heretic community, from which the strong and healthy heretics were selected to take charge of the work in the kitchen.
Instead of a kitchen, this place is more like a [pork factory].
A fat pig is hung here by an iron hook.
Only butchers, not cooks, are doing the work.
Because the family people living in the ancient castle area do not need to process the meat at all, the family people like the original pork, and only the butchers are needed to process the pork in pieces.
With the ability of camouflage, successfully bypassed the kitchen.
Came to the blacksmith store which is only separated by a corridor.
Dang dang dang dang ~ ~ bursts of ironing sound incessantly.
Different from the ordinary blacksmith store.
The hot and crimson blacksmithing area environment, various longhorn type hangings, and a strip of molten fire slurry flowing between the floors ... gave Han Dong a feeling of being in hell.
"This place is quite suitable for you, ah, Togo."
