Chapter 9: The Palace

() The 24-year-old knight of the guard, Gulga Lisan'o, is a squad leader of the palace guard, he only joined the palace guard half a year ago, and with his qualifications and merits, the position of a middle-level officer such as the squad leader is not his turn to fill at all, but in the incident that happened a month ago, many of the backbone of the palace guard were killed in battle, so a group of young junior officers like Gulga Lisan'o had a chance to be promoted

Speaking of the incident a month ago, Gulga Lisan'o still has lingering palpitations, and it should be said that everyone in Hansha City has an indelible memory of that day a month ago, when the sky was clear and the sky suddenly covered the sun, and then there was a strong wind, a once-in-a-century heavy rain, a thrilling dragon roar, the howl of countless monsters, a sudden drop in temperature, and a rapid frost...... All the sights were as if the end of the world had come

Lisan'o was one of the soldiers in charge of evacuating the people at the time, and had not experienced the thrilling bloody battle in the oatfield on the northern outskirts of the city, but his cousin was a witness and survivor of that bloody battle, yes, Lisão's cousin saved a life in the cataclysm, but lost an arm - had to be amputated by the poisonous talons of the harpy - and was forced to leave the palace guard, a place where manhood can achieve fame, and he recounted to Lisano himself how he recounted the life of being caught in the sea of harpies and the shock of seeing his companion torn to shreds by the magical barrier

Although after more than ten hours of such horror gradually returned to normal, and the officers who evacuated the people also told the people that the danger had been lifted and they could go home, there were still many people who had not recovered from the horror and preferred to camp in the suburbs rather than return to the warmth and comfort of their homes in the city

Why did this happen, according to the official explanation of the Pole Kingdom, the enemies of the kingdom manipulated the large magic array and a large group of harpys to destroy the Hansha City, trying to destroy the peace of the kingdom and kill the people of the kingdom; fortunately, under the leadership of the wise King Duris, the soldiers of the kingdom fought bravely, and finally annihilated the Harpy Legion and destroyed the large magic array, thwarting the enemy's conspiracy, and the lives and property of Hansha City and all the people living in the city were saved

Although the official explanation of the kingdom is supported by thousands of corpses of harpies, some people still raise doubts: who is the enemy of the kingdom, and what is the rumored tower that suddenly appeared in the oatmeal field, why did General Jean Neda, who was in charge of the defense of the capital before the incident, suddenly die violently, and what is the connection between General Jean Neda and this incident, for such a question, the kingdom official is vague and does not give a clear explanation, and its attitude is really intriguing

As for the truth of the matter, Lisano', like many people, was very eager to know, but he knew one thing: he was first and foremost a soldier, and a soldier must obey orders as his duty, so he did not dare to ask questions, and before that, he had to fulfill his duty, and in the half month after that day, the city of Hansand imposed a curfew and martial law for half a month, during which time Lisão was very busy every day, sometimes even working 20 hours a day, and there was no personal time for him to think about other problems; This state of affairs lasted until the main force led by General Liman returned from the western border, and the suffocating atmosphere was relieved, and now the people of Hansar City had returned to the normal track of life, and the people seemed to be very forgetful before that happened, but Guliga Lisan'o knew that it was only a matter of tightening up on the inside and loosening on the outside, and that as an officer of the palace guard, he had to be more cautious than before, which was a very important test for him who had just been promoted to squad leader

As usual, as soon as it was dawn, he was about to lead the team to inspect the palace, and any suspicious person had to be immediately detained, and the newly promoted Lisão was in high spirits, and in order to better show his talents in front of his superiors, he worked very hard, when Gulriga Lisão, who was on patrol, suddenly heard one of his sergeants shouting: Look there is a person there

Gulliga Lisan'o looked in the direction his men were pointing, and saw that in the morning haze, there was indeed a slender figure striding rapidly and unabashedly towards the palace

Bold Lisano hurriedly shouted, this is the palace, and immediately stopped

The man didn't even look at him and continued straight to the palace

Presumptuous Lisan'o, he led his subordinates to surround that person, do you want to find death, then Lisan'o found out that this person turned out to be a dark and thin young man, about 20 years old, with a long rolled paper roll in his hand

The thin dark young man in the middle smiled contemptuously, and did not answer any questions at all, and the arrogant attitude of the man angered Lisano: the damn fellow, arrest him

The two sergeants stepped up to grab the hands and shoulders of the thin black youth, but in the next second, two screams came out of the mouths of the two sergeants, much to Lisano's great surprise, with his current strength as a guard knight, he could not see how the thin black young man had subdued his two men

The Assassin Lisano's first instinct was to draw his weapon, followed by his sergeants unleashing their weapons

At this time, Lisão's adjutant came up to him and said, "Captain, this boy looks familiar, like a guest living in the annex on the west side of the palace

What do you say, why are the guests in the garden here, with such questions in mind, Lisan'o asks the adjutant again to make sure he doesn't recognize the wrong person

Suddenly, he felt a gust of wind blow around him

What about people, what about people, more than a dozen sergeants looked at each other, and their faces were full of blankness

The same surprise hung on Lisano's face, and at this time, his mouth could be stuffed directly into a duck egg, and he simply turned his head to ask the adjutant that the thin black young man who had been surrounded by him and his men was gone, as if he had never appeared

At this time, Lisao's mood was like falling straight into an ice cellar, he clearly saw the strength gap between himself and this black thin young man who was younger than him, and he had just been promoted to the captain of the squad, and his mood disappeared all of a sudden

Let's hope he wasn't an assassin.......
