“…… Master Lin, don't say anything, listen to me! ”

Master Li Lixiang's voice was extremely rapid, with heavy gasps, and because it was a magic transmission, Lin An couldn't hear the voice in his environment:

“…… Don't come here, we'll get back to you later! …… Go back to the imperial capital first, immediately raise the ban in an all-round way, and don't let anyone enter the city until we get the news of us! And ......"

His voice stopped abruptly.

"Master Li Li Xiang! Guru! ”

Lin An called several times, but the silver symbol in the blue crystal had gradually dimmed.

After staring at the symbol for a long time, making sure that it was only darkening and not disappearing, Lin An breathed a sigh of relief.

Thinking of Master Li Lixiang's advice, Lin An stood in place, his face changed back and forth several times, and after a pause, he cast a spell to summon the portal and returned to the imperial capital.

On the official road outside the eastern gate of Pompeii, the grass and trees are weak, the autumn wind is bleak, and there are few pedestrians.

A group of heralds galloped past, shouting loudly as they informed every village and town near the imperial capital of the news of the war alert.

There will be a sentry post every few miles on the official road, and there will be cards at various levels, which will ensure the smooth flow of information, but also reduce the number of business travelers on the road by seventy percent, and a large number of caravan trucks will be stranded outside the city gate in the post station.

Lin An only glanced at the air and landed in front of the city gate.

"Stop!"

As soon as the soldiers defending the city stopped, Lin An took out the identity token representing the archmage and shook it at the soldiers.

The soldier's face changed suddenly, and Lin An didn't wait for him to react, so he said, "What about your general?" ”

"Master Hui, we will generalize him...... Ah, my lord! ”

The group of soldiers moved their eyes behind Lin An, and saluted with their legs, their armor sonorous.

The city guard of the East Gate had already come to patrol the city, and he happened to hear the movement and hurried down, and when he heard the sound, he didn't look at the team of gatekeepers, took off his helmet, and saluted Lin An in the crook of his arm:

"I've seen the master! I don't know if you're ......"

Lin An used the hazy technique and did not show his true face, this general is also a nobleman, he is well-informed, and as soon as he looks at his face, he knows that Lin An used a spell.

"I'm Ann. Beautiful jade. ”

Lin An waved his hand, ignoring the surprise of the city guard, and said to him:

"From now on, no one will be allowed to enter the city gates, regardless of their status."

"Does the master have an edict?" The city is guarded strictly, and Zhengse asked.

"I'll go into the palace right now and ask His Majesty to give an order."

Lin An knew that the other party saw that he had come in from outside the city, his eyes were on the city guard, and he flashed strangely, and said in a low voice:

"During this time, no one is allowed in, for whatever reason you may use!"

"Yes, not even a fly will fly in!"

The soldier's willpower is higher, but Lin An's soul secret technique is so terrifying, since he has his back to the soldier, no one can see his abnormality.

Lin An can only do this.

Pompey has eight city gates, and he ran over them one by one, and he didn't know how much time it would take, so it was better to go directly to the palace and ask the Saxons for an order.

The archmage of the palace could enter the palace at any time outside of curfew, Lin An was soon received by the Saxons, and when he learned of Master Li Lixiang's instructions, the Saxons did not say a word, and immediately asked the secretary to write eight edicts, ordering the guards of the Eight Gates to close the gates immediately.

Then, the Saxon said to Lin An:

"After the meteor landed, I had already caused Master Don Quixote to activate the Forbidden Array, which has now covered the inner city."

"Can't it be fully stimulated and envelop the entire imperial capital?"

"Increasing the range to that size increases the amount of energy consumed by a hundredfold." Saxon was terrified, "The situation is already so dangerous that this kind of Cheng dù? ”

"Master Li Lixiang and I spoke in a hurry, and I don't know the reason, but it won't be harmful!"

Lin An wasn't sure if there was a demon powerhouse coming over, and said in a deep voice:

"Please give your Majesty an order!"

"Okay."

Saxon is not a person who looks ahead and backwards, and it has not been fully opened before, just because it has not yet determined whether the demonic disaster is coming, and he does not want to cause chaos in the imperial capital.

He took out the Star Banner and gave Master Don Quixote temporary permissions, and the forbidden array that expanded to the whole city was like a transparent glass cover, holding the imperial capital.

Fortunately, the city gates were closed at this time, and the city was under martial law, and most of the soldiers walking around the streets, not many civilians saw the expansion of the ban outside, otherwise it might cause panic.

Lin An stood at the head of the city, and when he saw that the magic enchantment over Crescent Bay had also been activated, he knew that Master Biyulai and the others had also entered the wartime alert.

There were five members of the elder group who stayed in the station, and they were supposed to enter the palace to protect the emperor at the first time, but because the hidden inheritance was still short, and the emperor had not yet established enough trust, at the first time of entering the wartime vigilance, the Saxon specially sent people to inform the masters such as Beyolai to stay in the station and wait for the order.

At such times, it is more important than blindly increasing the power of protection, but making sure that there are no loopholes around you.

It's not that the Saxons are responsive, it's that successive emperors have done it.

The royal family had already had a set of steps to deal with war, and Saxon was educated by the emperor from an early age, even if he was a pig's head, there would be nothing wrong in this regard.

The Saxons summoned their ministers all the time, gave orders, and recruited close relatives to accompany the royal family to mobilize the people under him.

At this time, it is most necessary to stabilize people's hearts, so that the ministers can see that the emperor is still there, which is a way to stabilize people's hearts, and it is also to prevent some people from taking the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and disturb the audio-visual.

"Your Majesty, the people you ordered to arrest before and entered the city within three magic hours before the gate fell, have all been found."

Viscount Roosevelt heard a courtier's return, and went to the Saxons to report to him on the sidelines of the Saxon's meeting with the minister.

Saxon was busy and ordered him to tell Lin An.

When Lin An heard this, he asked the old priest Viscount, "Who are they?" ”

Viscount Roosevelt can become a celebrity around the Saxons, naturally he is not a simple person, the general situation has long been asked, and he said without thinking:

"Half of them were soldiers, who had returned after being sent out on a mission, and the other half, mostly privileged people and their entourage, and a few civilians who had entered the city earlier."

Privileged people mainly refer to the children of nobles, of course, they may also include merchants with backgrounds, or scholars and gentry with a certain status, etc.

Outside the city, many aristocratic estates, the fall of the meteor must have alerted many people and hurriedly returned to the imperial capital.

Lin An estimated that there should be a lot of powerful people here, but she glanced at the smiling Viscount Roosevelt, didn't ask, and said calmly:

"Isolate them. No one was to come into contact with them except the guards - until there was news from Master Li Li Xiang and them, they had to stay where they belonged. ”

Viscount Roosevelt's heart trembled.

He heard the chill from Lin An's words.

Before he could answer the order, Lin An stopped him again.

"Also, those people who have come into contact with since they entered the city, let's gather together."

Viscount Roosevelt glanced at Lin An and didn't say anything.

He turned back to report to the Saxon, who groaned slightly, nodded, and ordered:

"Clear out the prison in the east of the city, mobilize five hundred royal guards to surround it, and if anyone disobeys the edict and tries to break in, they will be killed!"

This was no ordinary decree, and Viscount Roosevelt personally went out of the palace to deliver the decree.

It was about an hour before he came back to report what had happened to him during his mission:

Among the children of the quarantined nobles, there are three royal families, seven children of great noble families, and one of them is the third heir to the generation of Silver Green Phillips of the Queen Dinah family, and the scene is simply noisy.

After Viscount Roosevelt announced the decree, he shot a large noble child who had gathered the family's private soldiers to confront him into a sieve on the spot, and those noble children realized that the situation was not good and settled down.

“…… Master Phillips should be in the palace to plead guilty. Viscount Roosevelt reminded.

This petition is, of course, more than just a plea.

"He often visited his grandmother in the palace during this time?"

"Yes, but His Majesty's mood hasn't improved."

Saxon snorted coldly and said lightly: "The next time he asks to see him, he will say that his grandmother is unwell and doesn't want to see anyone." ”

"Yes."

Viscount Roosevelt bowed deeper.

Saxon picked up a copy of the notebook, opened it and opened it, but frowned, closed it, and asked Viscount Roosevelt:

"What is Gen Lynn doing?"

Viscount Roosevelt replied, "When the minister passed by just now, the master was contacting Elder Beyolai, as if he was explaining the affairs of the Secret Order. ”

Speaking in the court, he was tactful and did not offend anyone.

Otherwise, the emperor has many eyes and ears around him, and it is not possible that what he said a quarter of an hour ago would reach the ears of the person concerned the next moment, or what he thought was a secret would have already been passed out.

Viscount Roosevelt didn't mean to speak ill of Lin An, but he saw the weight of Lin An's words, and he was more cautious about her affairs.

Saxon frowned:

"You ask her to come over."

As a court archmage, Lin An naturally had to protect the Saxons during the wartime alert period, and he was next door at this time, and he was invited over not long after.

"Master Lin is going to the front?"

"Your Majesty, apart from the crowns, I am the only one who has mastered the teleportation spell."

The reason for this could not be more sufficient.

The Saxons also knew how strategically advantageous it was to be able to leave the battlefield at any time.

With the emperor not directly threatened, the Saxons had no reason to stop it, so he said: "Until there is any definite news from the crown or the masters, I think you should not act rashly." ”

Lin An didn't have this plan, so he naturally agreed.

Master Li Lixiang did not allow her to go to the Red River Plateau, and the request that no one should be allowed to enter the city was very strange, and Lin An would not act recklessly even if he was in a hurry.

She contacted Master Beulai, in addition to explaining the affairs and informing them of the current situation, but also to ask them if they had any other way to know the current situation on the Red River Plateau.

Master Biyulai does have some research in the field of prophecy, but under the influence of the divinity of the demon god, with her ability, she can't know the situation there.

Lin An and the masters who stayed behind could only wait for Master Li Lixiang and others to take the initiative to contact them.
