Although Ye Gu wanted to ask for more information, his time was scarce after all. In such a form, he had no way to ask why Yang Cai was here, and he had no way to know why there was an extra person in the emperor's sleeping room. But it is related to the dragon clan and Longqing, after all, it is still an indisputable fact.

There are only four days left before the start of Longqing, and everything the empire does during this time will be for Longqing, and anything other than this purpose will not enter the emperor's agenda.

Luckily, when Yegu ran up the stairs from the front of the second floor, he didn't encounter any palace people or soldiers. The quiet and dim atmosphere continues the style of the first floor of the hall.

Even when I reached the last floor, there was no light in the huge hallway.

After taking a deep breath, Ye Gu held the fire gun in his right hand and let it be infused with demonic power, emitting a strong red light.

Looking at the surrounding darkness, and then looking at the little light in his hand, Ye Gu muttered: "It's still not enough, it would be bad if it was a trap for the little emperor." ”

As he spoke, Ye Gu once again mobilized the Flame Demon Source Power to his left hand, and a much brighter flame was ignited.

The flame is the exclusive magic source power of this empire.

There was still a short distance from the small emperor's palace to the rooftop, and the first thing to bear the brunt of was the wide, hard metal door carved with dragons.

In Ye Gu's impression, that gate didn't seem to have the exclusive key of the Empire, and it was difficult to storm it with brute force.

This type of door was not only found in the bedrooms of the little emperors, but also in most of the important palaces of the empire.

However, it seems that today's door is different from usual.

Ye Gu, who walked quickly to the door, scanned the door from top to bottom with the flame in his left hand, and finally saw the place that puzzled and surprised him.

At the lock of the door, there seems to be something.

"What is this?" said Ye Gu curiously, shining all the flames into the door lock.

It doesn't seem to be a lock, but a special button, which was set up by someone at some point.

At least when Ye Gu came to the emperor's side half a month ago, he didn't have this special thing.

"Do you want to press it down?" Ye Gu wondered.

After a long three-second thought, Ye Gu finally made up his mind and tentatively tapped the door lock with his finger.

After making sure that there was no danger, Ye Gu pointed his finger at the button and applied it thoroughly.

Squeak——, boom!

The metal door opened a slight opening, then completely discarded all camouflage and expanded to both sides.

Under the loud roar, the road to the rooftop was opened for Ye Gu.

This is because Ye Gu doesn't care if it will cause a disturbance, and he no longer cares if it will be known by the surrounding soldiers, so they rush in to protect the emperor.

In such a short distance, he had full confidence to kill the emperor of the empire with this special test fire gun made by the Westerners.

Moreover, a few steps above the gate were the seemingly lonely figure of the little emperor.

This loud noise did not attract the attention of the little emperor, who was still wearing the emperor's uniform, holding the scepter in his hand that he had never left, and his back to Ye Gu overlooking everything in the imperial palace from top to bottom.

Even from this position, you can clearly see the ruins of the Imperial Capital Dragon Clan, which is slightly higher not far away, and the looming Imperial Sky Army.

There is nothing to hide, and there is no disguise. Ye Gu suppressed his fear and nervousness, and walked behind the little emperor step by step with the fire hammer in his hand.

Observing from the back, Ye Gu suddenly thought about a question.

There is not much difference between his age and the little emperor, but the two sides' cognition of strength, familiarity with the world pattern, and even all the governance of the empire are not at the same level at all.

If he hadn't personally participated in it, Ye Gu would never have imagined that behind the arrangement of Longqing's series of events was a sixteen-year-old boy. It's just that on his forehead, he stands proudly with the crown of the Flame Empire.

Now, he is holding a firearm and standing behind the little emperor, and he is about to become the first person in the imperial family to assassinate the monarch, and he will also be the first person to end the future disaster.

If he succeeds, he doesn't know which direction the future history of the Flame Empire will take, but his name will inevitably be known to all the subjects and nobles of the Fire Empire.

"The dragons will surely reappear with darkness, and the continent will no longer be able to withstand the disaster. Ye Gu said in a low voice, aiming the blazing fire gun at the back of the little emperor, closing his eyes, and pulling the mechanism above.

In an instant, a small fireball composed of demonic source power rushed straight towards the heart of the little emperor's back along an almost straight line.

While!

Instead of the dull sound of physical contact he had expected, the fireball was a crisp sound that was so loud as it was above the metal.

In the darkness of the night, this sound seemed so clear and clear.

Flusteredly, he opened his eyes, and there were two more imperial guards in armor in front of Ye Gu.

The fireball just now was obviously resisted by the guard's armor like a steel plate.

"It turns out that the guards are here. Ye Gu said, injecting the magic source power into the fire gun again. Ready to fire a second deadly attack at any moment.

However, the little emperor seemed to be immersed in the boundless night, and still did not look back, still maintaining his original posture.

But the guards in front of him were already ready for battle with swords in hand.

"Assassinating Your Majesty is tantamount to treason, you are an act of betrayal, don't you know that you are a general of the Empire?" one of the guards questioned Ye Gu.

"When you hold me back, you are blocking the Empire's chances of redemption. When disaster strikes, you won't even have a chance to repent. Whether to betray or not, only reality can decide. Ye Gu said, aiming the fire gun at the forehead of the guard in front of him.

"You and I are both members of the Empire, and we can only be loyal to Your Majesty. The future that dragons bring to the empire is only paradise. That brief pain will be a must-have experience for everyone. Like human beings, they do not experience pain, do not grow up, and do not bring new life. So you, it is better to lay down your arms now and return to Your Majesty, so that Your Majesty will forgive you for what you have done today. Your future is like the future of the empire. ”

"Is it the same sorrow and darkness? You are all mad to cling to nothingness in the face of such an obvious catastrophe. ”

Ye Gu took a deep breath and quickly fired two firebolts forward.

When, when!

As before, although the fire bolt was aimed at the face of the guard in front of him, he could still only hear the sound of metal colliding.

Even if the armor of the Flame Empire is not masked!

"Why is this happening?" said Ye Gu in a panic.

"This is the power of the dragons!" the two soldiers said, their words revealing a sense of distortion.

With the distortion of their words, their faces have completely changed to the evil and distortion that humans should not have.

In the two seconds that Ye Gu was stunned, the long sword of one of the guards had already reached less than thirty centimeters at his neck.

Bite!

In a hurry, Ye Gu had no choice but to throw the fire gun outward, and hurriedly pulled out the short sword at his waist, barely blocking the fatal blow.

Then resisting the force, Ye Gu quickly jumped back, supported the ground with his hands, and made a one-handed somersault on the ground. Then he jumped backwards again to dissolve the strong force into a small, imperceptible vibration.

"If the fire bolt can't attack them, it means that they are immune to demonic power, or at least they have a natural resistance to flames. If you retreat now, not only will your life be wasted for no reason or cruelly, but the faint chance of preventing the catastrophe will also be dissipated. It was only like the warriors of the Empire who had fought a duel with weapons in person. Ye Gu thought, and simply didn't care about the fire gun that was thrown aside. After clenching the short sword in his hand again.

"Fight!" the guard seemed to see Ye Gu's intentions, and after yelling, he quickly rushed towards Ye Gu's position with his sword.

It was as if two combatants were dueling one-on-one in the arena, and the other guard next to him and the little emperor with his back to it were like excited spectators from their seats, watching this instinct emanating from animal nature.

The guard was a head taller than Yegu, and naturally when facing him, Yegu's advantage was his agility, and the advantage of the guard, in addition to defense, was the power that seemed to be able to split the hardest stone with each blow.

Call!

As Ye Gu quickly approached the guard, the guard clenched his sword in both hands and slashed at Ye Gu's head. And Ye Gu just bowed his head lightly, and dodged the blow very easily.

Taking advantage of the situation, he took the short sword in his hand, and found an opportunity, and quickly aimed it at the guard's jaw and stabbed it upward.

Due to the fact that the guard's strength was not completely retracted after the slash, it had a certain lag characteristic, and Ye Gu's dexterous and agile reach, the short sword, as if it was precisely pre-designed, pierced straight into the brain of the guard in front of him from the chin.

Yegu's movements were so fluid and light that the blow didn't even make any more sounds.

Even at night, the people around him could still observe Ye Gu's death dance steps, as well as movements that were so soft that they didn't make too many sounds.

After drawing the short sword, Ye Gu hurriedly lowered his head and slid backwards sideways to avoid the fierce counterattack of the guards when they were dying.

It was only when he stabilized his body and looked up at the front that he realized how worried he was.

The guard seemed to have been drained of his power by the time the dagger was drawn.

But even so, he still took on a very strange posture, his hands and feet were lowered, his head was lowered, but his whole body seemed to be suspended in place as if he was being manipulated by something.

Just as he was surprised, a blinding light came from the guard's heart, and immediately swallowed his long-lost body.

"It's hot!"

Just as the light engulfed the guards, the fling stone on Ye Gu's chest emitted a strong heat and light as if it had been summoned by something.

As a last resort, Yegu could only take the bright stone out of his chest and separate it from his skin with the armor of the new guard.

Sure enough, the quality of the goods of the merchants of the Central Empire was not bad. At least the thermal insulation has been excellent.

However, just as Ye Gu looked down at the Flying Flame Stone, another ray of light also passed through the body of the guard next to him who had not participated in the battle.

In less than a second, the soldier was completely swallowed by the light.

Not a trace was left!

"What power is this?" asked Ye Gu with some fear.

It was only at this time that the little emperor slowly turned his body immersed in the night.

His eyes were staring at Ye Gu in front of him.

In his hand, I don't know when, there was an extra red weird flower.

"Ye Gu, what do you mean by saying that the flowers on the other side represent?" the little emperor asked in a low voice, pointing to the flowers in his hand and then to the ground.

Ye Gu looked in the direction pointed by the little emperor, and under the two bodies swallowed by the light, there was only a pile of bright red flowers on the other side, standing quietly upright in place.

It's as if it grew out of this masonry.
