Chapter 711 Rescue Plan
Seeing that Luke was so anxious, several bosses discussed it and immediately sent people to follow Luke to carry out the rescue plan.
The document found on the dead cardinal's body was a secret plan.
The plan called for the cardinal to secretly attack a lord's castle.
This lord has a good relationship with the local Warlock Guild.
But in fact, this lord is from the Holy See.
There were a group of people imprisoned in his castle.
The cardinal went there to silence the witnesses.
Not only to silence them, but also to disguise the attack as a sorcerer.
Then, the sorcerers planted by the Vatican were also killed.
By then, there will be no evidence and the blame can be perfectly put on the Warlock Guild.
The document did not specify who was being held in custody.
Obviously, anyone who is secretly detained by the Vatican must be someone who is against the Vatican.
Luke is in a hurry now.
The three bosses could also see it.
So he was assigned to be assisted by several young sorcerers.
The leader is a mentor-level warlock named Russell.
This guy is the grandson of one of the legendary bosses.
However, Luke had no intention of going with them.
"You guys hurry up first, I'll get there in advance and then join you."
Because of Luke's mysterious strength, the legendary boss has put him on a level with equal strength.
Being able to kill the Cardinal alone is proof enough.
Russell set off on horseback with seven or eight young third-level warlocks.
These are all young warlocks. They don't use carriages, but ride horses directly to travel.
Even if they travelled at full speed, it would still take five or six days.
But it took Luke just one night to get there.
The spiritual consciousness opens the way and creates the portal.
That’s the process.
This is the border between the United Kingdom of Tyr and another kingdom.
And it is also at the intersection of the power of the Holy See.
It is the border of the three families.
This lord belongs to someone from another country.
Although he is called a lord, he is actually also the lord of the city.
It’s just that the lord’s castle is some distance away from the city.
The lord's castle is on a hill.
And at the foot of the mountain is the city.
This distance is about 5 kilometers.
The castle on the mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Luke can kill people quickly, but he can't handle the subsequent troubles.
Moreover, in order to avoid disputes between countries, the Warlock Guild must capture this lord alive.
Russell and his team will deal with the people from the Warlock Guild who are in collusion with this lord.
The token they carried was a special approval document from the Warlock Guild Headquarters.
It's equivalent to an imperial envoy.
The Warlock Guild headquarters of this country is actually affiliated with the Warlock Guild of the United Kingdom of Tyr.
Every country on the continent, except the United Kingdom of Tyr and the Papal States, has legendary warlocks stationed there.
Now the Warlock Guild Headquarters is not sure whether all Warlock Guilds in this country are connected to the Vatican.
Therefore, there was no special way to convey the message to the Warlock Guild of this country.
It is to avoid alerting the enemy.
Five days later, Russell and his companions arrived at a place a day's journey outside the city, where they were stopped by Luke.
"I've finally got you. Come take a rest first."
Luke led them into the woods.
In a cave next to a hill.
"The conditions are simple, please bear with me."
Russell and the others had no objection.
These days, they have been traveling almost non-stop.
We set out before dawn and find a place to camp after dark.
Fortunately, Luke had arranged this in advance.
There are hot and delicious meals and space to rest.
After the group finished their meal, they watched Luke make arrangements.
Luke's plan was simple.
"You wait outside for my signal, then come in and capture the lord."
"Wait until you catch him, then investigate the rebellious warlock here."
Russell and the others were speechless.
Sir, are you so brave?
But Luke was confident.
"Your teacher also said that you must follow my instructions for this operation. I will be responsible for any problems."
The young warlocks looked at each other and didn't object.
As long as someone takes the blame, they don’t care.
They are all elites of the Warlock Guild, and at least they understand the ways of the world.
No one objected, so Luke proposed the arrangement.
They will reach the city tomorrow afternoon.
Because of the traitors from the Warlock Guild, they did not plan to enter the city.
When night falls, go around the city and head to the lord's castle.
Luke actually didn't do anything waiting these days.
He had already explored the situation of this lord's castle and city.
There were no people from the Vatican guarding the secret prison.
But two mentor-level warlocks.
The two of them took turns guarding those people.
After investigation, there were five people inside.
Three old men, a middle-aged man, and a woman.
Several people looked very depressed.
Apparently, life in prison is not good.
Probably to prevent them from escaping, even their food was withheld.
If you don’t have enough to eat, you naturally won’t have the energy to escape.
Besides this, there is another part of the prison.
But the people here are all beggars, and they are young beggars.
What a beast.
This lord doesn't like women, he only likes little boys...
If it weren't for the request from the bosses of the Warlock Guild, they would have captured him alive.
I guess Luke would have taken action a long time ago.
After all, Luke's values are still very positive.
After all, he is the representative of the Orderly Good camp.
When Russell and others woke up the next day, Luke was gone.
But since they have made an agreement, they naturally will not embarrass the Warlock Guild.
At night, Luke estimated the time and began to sneak into the castle.
His movements were so fast that all the guards in the castle, whether they were single or in teams, were killed by his sword.
Not even a sound came out.
The secret prison is underground in the castle.
But Luke cleared all the buildings on the upper levels of the castle.
Including the lord.
At the same time, they also took away a large number of documents and emptied the city lord's secret room.
It doesn’t matter whether there is money or not, the main thing is that the thief doesn’t leave... ahem, we can’t leave it for others to get the benefit.
Using extremely professional techniques, the lord was tied up like a dumpling and thrown into the grass at the castle gate.
Luke was ready to enter the dungeon.
Although there is a warlock in charge, there are still quite a few guards inside.
It was just time for the shift change.
Luke rushed in directly.
The noise outside still woke up the warlock sitting inside.
This is an ice warlock.
Very aggressive.
But it's no use...
This time Luke didn't use a gun, but a hidden blade...
Since I'm cosplaying Assassin, I have to reproduce it perfectly...
The warlock fell down unwillingly.
Then, Luke entered the deepest part of the dungeon.
The people in the cells were held in solitary confinement.
Each person has a room with no windows and only an iron door.
When Luke walked into the dungeon, he did not hide.
There are no guards at all in the innermost part, simply because the environment here is too cramped.
And there is only one way out.
As long as there are two guards guarding the door, the people inside cannot get out even if they escape from the cell.
When Luke came in, the people inside didn't react at all.
With a click, Luke directly broke the door lock.
"Listen up everyone in there, you are being... ahem, you are being acquitted."
A hoarse female voice responded:
"What tricks are you playing? I won't be fooled. Forget it..."
