"They're getting closer."
The corridors of the palace were dimly lit and silent. Only Benjamin, dressed as a personal guard, stood outside the door of the king's bedroom and whispered into the room.
"Then, then do it quickly and arrest them all!" the king's voice came out, sounding a little panicked.
Benjamin comforted him: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I won't put you in danger."
Then, he and the system continued to observe the movements of the two people.
Probably from the time when the two siblings cast spells to control the guards, the system became aware of their existence. After the system relayed the message, Benjamin suddenly became energetic. The enemy came faster than he thought, and he thought that this boring life of a guard would continue for another ten days and a half.
Moreover, it seems that these two people should have been hiding in Glory before.
Benjamin already felt very regretful for accidentally killing Spencer. Now that two more guys from overseas sects finally came, he certainly couldn't miss this opportunity and wanted to study the process of these people casting spells.
"Have you recorded the flow patterns of their spiritual power?" He asked in his mind while observing.
"It's very interesting." The system said to itself, "Their mental power is indeed imitated from the elemental plane, but... they seem to have made some modifications. It is a very special frequency, even if it is I won’t even feel anything if I don’t check carefully.”
Hearing this, Benjamin touched his chin thoughtfully.
Frequency...
This is another fresh concept worth pondering.
"How do they change the frequency of their mental power?" He asked in his mind, "The frequency of each creature's mental power should be fixed...if mental power really has a frequency."
The system said impatiently: "Of course there is. The mental frequency of advanced creatures like me is completely different from that of ordinary humans."
“…”
Benjamin shook his head and could only close his eyes, trying hard to feel the frequency of spiritual power emanating from those two people.
In fact, he couldn't sense anything from those two people. Perhaps as the system said, Benjamin and their mental power are no longer on the same frequency. Therefore, there would be no resonance between their mental powers, and Benjamin could not sense anything.
But... how do these people control the spirits of those guards with alienated frequencies
I can't figure it out.
While Benjamin was thinking, the two siblings also controlled the surrounding guards and quietly entered the corridor of the palace.
In order to allow people from overseas sects to come in, the king has actually secretly relaxed the security here, otherwise these two people would not be as relaxed as they are now. They walked around in the empty corridor, but they didn't even meet a servant. They were too "lucky".
Benjamin was actually a little worried that this would be too obvious and the other party would be alert. But it was obvious that he was overthinking it, as those two people didn't even look like there was a trap.
Moreover, they are still two such young children...
Benjamin couldn't help but wonder, is this overseas sect so depleted of talent that it sends even such children abroad
at the same time.
Being stared at secretly by countless pairs of eyes, the two siblings have not noticed anything yet. They followed the route Spencer left for them and quietly headed towards the king's bedroom.
"Sister... I think there's something weird here." Halfway through, the young man couldn't help but whisper, "How can such a big palace not have a single servant? Is there a trap here?"
"What's weird? This is the goddess helping us!" The girl turned around and rolled her eyes at him, "I told you a long time ago that the goddess will help us secretly, but you still don't believe it... Do you know that this is disrespectful to the goddess? ah?"
"I-I was wrong."
"Okay, don't talk, we're almost there."
The king's bedroom was located deep in the palace, but they knew the route and "if there was divine help" along the way, they naturally walked very quickly. It took about ten minutes for them to go up to the third floor and arrive at the corridor where the king's bedroom was located.
"Wait a minute! There... seems to be someone there!"
As soon as she emerged from the corner, the girl immediately retracted and whispered to the boy.
"Is he the king's personal guard?" The young man was a little panicked and asked in a low voice, "Has he seen you? No... let's, let's run!"
"Shh..."
The girl took another look, then suddenly turned her head and made a silencing gesture towards the boy. Then, she quietly walked out from the corner.
The young man was almost stunned when he saw this scene.
"You... what are you going to do? How can you be so upright... "
The girl just laughed out loud.
"Oh, okay, don't be afraid, come here." She waved to the boy and whispered, "Look, the king's personal guard has already fallen asleep against the wall!"
The young man was stunned for a moment, but under the urging of the girl, he could only walk out tremblingly. Then, following the direction of the girl's finger, he looked up and saw a figure leaning against the wall.
At that moment, his expression was also a little unbelievable.
"You can actually... can you still fall asleep?" He scratched the back of his head, "I thought that those who can become the king's personal bodyguards are usually very capable people."
The girl patted his shoulder and said in a deep tone: "All of this is the guidance of the goddess."
After hearing this, the young man took a deep breath and began to put his hands together in a praying posture. After all this, he gradually became convinced of the result of their divination earlier—that tonight, they would successfully control the king of Carites and open up a new home for their compatriots overseas.
Then they tiptoed over.
When they came to the sleeping guard, they took a closer look and could even hear a faint shout coming from the guard's nose. The girl's expression made her want to laugh, but she quickly turned her head and made a motion of slitting the boy's throat.
—Do you want to get rid of this trouble first
The young man shook his head quickly.
"Just keep the king under control and don't cause trouble." He tried his best to open his mouth wide and mouthed such a sentence. Seeing this, the girl shrugged without objecting.
They turned around, facing away from the sleeping guard, and touched the door of the king's chamber.
The door must have been locked, and it was impossible for the two of them to have the key to unlock it. However, the young man quickly took out some wires from his pocket and inserted them into the lock skillfully. With a soft creaking sound, the locked door soon began to loosen.
When the girl saw this, she couldn't help showing some excitement.
It's about to succeed...
Of course she didn't expect that the whole process would go so smoothly. Even the priest couldn't stop the mage, so before entering the palace, she was really ready to sacrifice at any time.
However, she didn't even see half a mage here.
Too lax? How stupid is that mage? Do you really think that if you kill the priest, nothing will happen to the king
Just when she was thinking this...
"Children at such a young age should stop thinking about these sneaky hookups all day long. How bad it is." A joking voice came from behind, instantly shocking them all into a cold sweat.
