Volume 1 [Flame Chapter] Dragon Death Chapter 161 Dragon Qing (37): Infiltrating the Imperial Palace
In the gradually dim night, Ye Gu took some abandoned steel around the palace junkyard and quickly put the armor that had been placed in the box on his body.
This kind of battle armor made by the Central Empire is in a minimalist style, and the wearing operation is not complicated and cumbersome, and its appearance is just a jet-black feeling. If it weren't for the Flame Empire's army insignia with decorative qualities, I'm afraid the empire wouldn't be in such a hurry.
"No wonder the New Guard, for an army like the New Guard to maintain order and secret missions, with such black armor and no cumbersome belt and gloves, it seems that the merchant has spent all his money where it should have been spent. Ye Gu teased with a wry smile in his heart.
It seems that the material of this armor does not belong to the black silver with the power of the magic source, nor is it the steel of the Empire, it seems to be a combination of special metals and some cloth.
Thinking of this, Ye Gu slightly mobilized the flame demon source power in his body, imitating the feeling of the bullet emitted by the fire gun, and slightly bombarded towards the corner of the battle armor.
The flames were devoured by this armor!
Ye Gu looked surprised, and looked at the place where he had bombarded just now in disbelief, indeed, not even the slightest bit of ash appeared.
It seems that this armor has a special attraction to the demonic source force, and the special metal material inside is enough to resist the blows of some firearms.
As long as it's not aimed at the head!
Ye Gu smiled and teased a little in his heart. He looked at the firebolt again.
Fortunately, when Si Lei returned to the basement of Lin Feng's residence before, he had already told him all about the use of the test firearm made of special metals, otherwise this object that didn't even need to be filled with gunpowder might not be able to be achieved by thinking and imagination.
It is estimated that nearly twenty minutes have passed, and at this time, the emperor's dinner has already entered the rhythm. In the Flame Empire, when the emperor eats, except for the cooks in the imperial kitchen, everyone else is also eating time.
"My personal time has finally arrived. From now on, until you can stop Long Qing. I will no longer rely on Ye Mingyuan, no longer on the little emperor, no longer on the Luo family, and even on those soldiers at the bottom of the empire. I'm the only one, and with that pitiful faith, I've become the lonely watchman after all. Ye Gu sighed alone, pinning the fire gun to his waist, just like those New Guard soldiers did, once again they could have a chance to get out if they were found to be abnormal at the first time.
The junkyard was still a short distance from the Emperor's bedchamber, and by the darkness of the night and the pitch-black armor, Ye Gu walked slowly and silently through the road.
It seems that today is even more special, and those imperial guards who are usually responsible for guarding the palace do not seem to be in other positions.
"It seems that the emperor has a banquet tonight. Ye Gu guessed, and did not stop.
This is the night of the Flame Empire, and the feeling of heat in the daytime is not necessarily much preserved at this time.
The faint cool breeze of the night was being desperately captured by the people of the imperial capital, calming down their impetuous hearts again, and adapting to the slightly cold environment at night and the coming blood shadow as soon as possible.
"Dragon's breath again?" Ye Gu guessed, his left hand inadvertently grabbing the flaming stone on his chest.
At this time, the Flying Flame Stone seemed to be filled with energy, and it was emitting a strong heat and fiery red light.
I don't know what kind of influence it was on, but Ye Gu was able to capture the feeling that belonged to the dragon clan from the faint breath in the air.
Maybe this was the curse brought by the dragon in Nandu, or was it a gift left by Ye Mingyuan when he turned into a dragon?
Without much thought, Ye Gu still pressed the Flying Flame Stone tightly to his chest, allowing the jet-black armor to completely resist its light.
He didn't even notice that the air had twisted a little at this moment. During the day, you can probably see some ripples radiating outward.
It didn't take a few more steps for Ye Gu's keen eyes to spot the Imperial soldiers walking out of the central palace in the dark.
The brilliance of the red uniform is not easy to capture in the night.
"Not good, someone. Ye Gu thought in his heart, and hurriedly and gently turned over a small section of grass and trees in the palace, and half-squatted and hidden.
Fortunately, the Flame Empire likes big things, including the plants in the palace, which are all based on leniency, which naturally brings him the opportunity to hide.
The two Imperial soldiers did not go far, but half-sat on the steps outside the palace.
One of them picked up an object that looked like a flint, and after striking it a few times, the flame ignited a small strip of something of unknown importance, put it to his mouth, and after blowing or absorbing it, he asked slowly:
"Sik us tir dragorenit reazik dilie shikmiser?"
“ reaazik dilie wandourz。 (Middle: No, he only brings disaster)"
“ tinchiz lover tir。 (Chubu: But the emperor likes it, doesn't he?)"
“ us a sodsha yuer tinke。 (Central: He's just a sword of the emperor)"
Naturally, Yegu, a language that was not the Chinese language of the empire and the lingua franca of the west, did not come into contact. However, if Ye Gu is familiar with this language or one of its representative words, he will have an early understanding of some of the situations in the palace. Even, he will wonder if these two people are the ones who have lurked in to help him in his actions.
This language, the Tao really has a kind of demonic flavor.
However, this time he could only travel alone, and there was no other help or opportunity. The emperor's bedroom is close at hand, which always makes him a little impetuous and anxious.
In desperation, Ye Gu had to temporarily slow down his breathing, without more sound and breath, and tried his best to hide himself.
It is estimated that in about half an hour, after the Emperor's evening meal is over, and all the guards have left the palace, it will give him a wonderful opportunity in the night.
......
At the same time, there was a room in the corner of the second floor of the emperor's dormitory.
"What's the matter? You didn't go down to accompany the emperor to the banquet? This is the first time that our new prime minister has met His Majesty. Holding the wine and glasses that had come up from below, Carl teased half-leaning against the hallway wall.
"Not that interested. You, the Emperor, and the dragons of the Dragon Realm all said they wanted to help me recover my memory. This time I have decided to cooperate with His Majesty, and I was also drained by those three old men with a tube of blood. I just don't know how much more I can get back this memory. Ye Mingyuan sighed helplessly.
At this moment, he was wearing the imperial soldier's costume and the demon's master costume that the emperor had given him, and with a royal atmosphere and his immature face, he would definitely get a few more glances in the banquet in the hall downstairs. However, he is not used to the crowded atmosphere, and he always seems depressed.
"Your Majesty is neutral on the point of cooperation with the dragon, and I do not support or oppose it now. However, as the Empire's Demon Origin Master, I must find a way to maintain the future stability of the Empire. Now the darkness and light will be staged after Long Qing, which is already an inescapable fact. ”
"Do you think the power of darkness is strong, or is the power of light more advantageous?" Ye Mingyuan asked.
"I use darkness, but yearn for light. If the two forces do not collide and cause disaster, the power of light will surely nourish all things. The dragons are essentially only human beings with a demigod nature, not to mention that the Flame Empire itself is related to them. ”
"Is there a possibility that it won't cause a disaster?" Ye Mingyuan asked, a little bit of fear and longing intertwined in his heart.
"Historically, no. All we can do is do our best to maintain ourselves in the future. Moreover, if Long Qing fails, it may be that darkness will also break out in advance. When Carl said this, he deliberately kept his voice low.
"In advance?"
"That's right, the darkness that was entangled in the Emperor's body before, and the knowledge of darkness that I can master, show that once the power of light cannot be released, darkness may become dominant and freeze the whole world. So, "
"So the emperor's Long Qing can only succeed, can't fail?" Ye Mingyuan asked.
"yes. Hehe, we're kind of ridiculous. Two years ago, when Longqing was about to be launched, I tried to find a way to stop it. It's the same with you, isn't it for this order to go to the West to see me? It's a pity that we agreed to stop it together two years ago, and when it comes to the critical moment, we can only be forced to forcibly change your thinking according to the change of form. Carl sighed, drank the wine in his mouth, pushed open Ye Mingyuan's door, and put the glass on the inconspicuous small table.
"Well, Carl, some memories I've been missing for a long time, and even some of the most recent memories don't seem so clear. I forgot the agreement I made with you two years ago, and I don't even remember why I went to the Western Frontier more than half a month ago. I just vaguely remember that I had an agreement with Your Majesty. Ye Mingyuan replied after thinking hard.
"And can you think of anything else?" Karl asked.
"I just remember the phrase 'Longqing is related to dragons. I can't think of anything else. Ye Mingyuan said, and there was a burst of pain and dizziness in his head.
Fortunately, it only lasted less than a second, and then he regained his composure.
"'Longqing is related to dragons'? Doesn't it mean the present? Everything is closely related to dragons and cannot be separated. But I'm here today, and I have a way to help you recover some of your memories. It depends on how much you have in your brain that you can recall. ”
"Really? What do you do? Is it magic source power, or is it divination?" Ye Mingyuan seemed to suddenly see a ray of light in the dark night,
"Have you ever heard of snooping?" Karl asked, closing the door of Ye Mingyuan's room tightly so that unrelated people outside could hear something.
"How do you do that?"
"On the one hand, snooping is some of the tricks of the Dark Magicians and some Westerner magicians like me. Specifically, it is to pour the power of the magic source into your eyes, and from the parallel gaze of the eyes, you can peek out some information in your heart. On the other hand, props are used to lure you into hallucinations, so that you can see the information in your deep memories. Carl explained.
"Can we start now?" Ye Mingyuan asked, sitting on a chair beside him.
"Now, please close your eyes and welcome the encirclement of the dark demonic power. Carl said, and also sat on the side of the bed opposite Ye Mingyuan, slowly gathering and emitting the dark demonic source power from his hand.
Suddenly, the originally bright atmosphere in the house gradually became comparable to the outside world.
Even, beyond the boundless night, there are even a few stars.
