A scorching flame swept by.

A white glow came to my face.

However, Chen Chaonan is still alive.

He was not injured, just a little frightened.

He looked at the emperor beside him in disbelief.

The Emperor raised his hands in the air, and around him spread a strong wind that resisted the flames.

This is the emperor's wind attribute magic, a power that is even more powerful than imagined.

The formless, massless shield of the wind keeps all explosion damage out.

At the last moment, the Emperor's wind attribute magic power offset the impact of the explosion, blocked the attack of the flames, and successfully protected himself and Chen Chaonan.

It didn't take long for the flames around him to disappear, and the magic of the wind attribute swept through, completely clearing the aftermath of the explosion.

The black sky reappeared.

Chen Chaonan's heart is still beating wildly.

If it weren't for the emperor's protection, even if he couldn't die, he would definitely be seriously injured.

The moment was so sudden that he didn't even have time to react.

The most threatening explosion attack like this from the sky was not the flames, but the impact after the explosion, but fortunately, with the emperor's wind attribute magic to counteract, Chen Chaonan was able to be as unscathed as he was now.

"Your Majesty the Emperor!"

The guards who were originally hidden on the periphery immediately rushed forward and used their bodies as shields to protect the emperor, who had become a little pale due to excessive consumption of mana.

Chen Chaonan was also protected by the guards, but he would not be careless at this time, and perhaps there were assassins among these guards.

He approached the Emperor's side so that no unpredictable accident would happen next.

His light attribute magic power didn't have any attack power, but if it wasn't for any fatal injury, he should be able to recover it with all his strength.

Just...... What's going on?

Chen Chaonan's attention was focused on the emperor before the explosion, so he didn't notice where the attack was coming from.

If there is no accident, it should be from the sky, but what kind of attack it is, he is completely confused.

However, after the explosion, the smell of burnt smell wafting in the air made his heart move.

This feeling of inspiration was mixed with the palpitations of the rest of his life after the catastrophe, and he was almost out of breath.

He seemed to know what weapon the attacker was using.

The scene was chaotic, and because the emperor was tired and temporarily unable to speak, the commander of the soldiers at the scene had to send the important person of the emperor's position to a safe place as soon as possible, so as to avoid another attack.

At the same time, the commanding officer assigned some of them to search for the attacker, and the attack was not enough for tens of seconds before the attack, the other party should not have fled far, and the other party must be found now.

In the noisy hustle and bustle, Chen Chaonan, who was pushed by many guards, moved his pace rapidly, and whispered to the emperor who was panting beside him about something.

"Your Majesty, thank you so much just now......"

Chen Chaonan didn't waste time, and after a little greeting, he directly asked the question.

Every minute and every second counts now.

Maybe some kind of final plot is about to begin.

"Your Majesty, do you have any clue about the explosion caused by the revolutionary army?"

Because he hadn't exercised his magic power for a long time, after he had just released it at the critical moment, the emperor, who felt a little prostration, looked at Chen Chaonan with strange eyes, and then shook his head silently.

Chen Chaonan bit his lower lip lightly, the emperor himself didn't know what the explosion was, but if there was no accident, it should be the same as he guessed.

Gunpowder weapons!

Just because there is no such weapon on this world doesn't mean it won't appear in the future.

Although this is the Western world with magical powers, anything is possible in the otome world, and no one has ever said that chemical physics cannot be used in this world.

The pungent smell of chemical drugs he had just smelled was most likely the smell of gunpowder.

Considering the harem that was razed to the ground, it is possible that the attackers piled up about powder kegs in the harem and then triggered them in one go.

It is very likely that the attack just now was caused by the other party throwing the powder keg directly into the palace from the outside, and under this kind of night, it is difficult to guard against such an unprecedented sudden attack.

As for why the other party grasped the location of the emperor, it naturally goes without saying that there are traitors in the palace who revealed the news, and it is even very likely that everything just now happened in the palace.

Wait a minute......

Chen Chaonan raised his head suddenly.

Is the attack really over......

Chen Chaonan knew very well that he had used the power of all modern weapons, and even if it had just appeared in this world, it should have been studied in different ways to use it.

The purpose of piling up explosives and then detonating them is only the basics.

Chen Chaonan subconsciously looked at the torches beside him.

In such a night, surrounded by firelight, their presence was so obvious.

And the darkness that surrounds it has become a natural protective color.

Worst!

Chen Chaonan, who was about to open his mouth to warn, was still a second late.

Bang!

A loud and rough cacophony sounded, and even in this palace, which had become a little chaotic, it was still so eye-catching.

At the same time, someone fell.

Chen Chaonan stiffly looked at the soldiers next to him who were spitting blood and collapsed to the ground.

The soldier was punched through the neck.

There are only a few people in the position of the difference, and this attack will hit the emperor himself.

Similarly, Chen Chaonan may also be subjected to such an attack.

Sniping with muskets!

Chen Chaonan judged it instantly.

"Enemy attack! Protect His Majesty the Emperor! Hurry up and bring your majesty to a safe place! ”

The chaos erupted again, and with the panicked shouts of the soldiers, the entire palace seemed to boil.

The team protecting the Emperor hurried forward, and now that they were in an open area, the soldiers knew they had to hurry to the place where there was an obstacle to block the unknown attack.

Safe place to ...... Is there really one?

In the center of the soldiers' protection, Chen Chaonan did not think that the palace still had a so-called safe place.

Maybe in front of them, what awaits them will be another explosion.

Chen Chaonan knew that he couldn't sit still, and this seemingly safe palace was no longer suitable for staying.

"Your Majesty!"

Chen Chaonan opened his mouth and shouted in the chaos and noise.

"We should leave the palace immediately, this may be a conspiracy of the enemy, and there is probably no safe place in this palace!"

Outside the palace is dangerous, of course, but it is also dangerous to stay here.

It is likely that the enemy has long been ready for the next round of explosive attacks.

In this confusion, they are likely to be lured into the trap.

When the time comes, there will be no other emperor with plenty of magic to protect him.

"Your Majesty!"

Chen Chaonan's hoarse shout made the pale emperor react.

The Emperor stared deeply into the darkness ahead.

Then, in a slightly weak voice, he gave an unquestionable order.

"We ...... Leave the palace now! ”
