Chapter 32: Undercurrents are surging

[Strength Potion to Strengthen Troops (Side Effects): Increases strength by 5 and decreases physical strength by 2 after use. 】

Gu Xuan stared boredly at the small bottle of potion in front of him, which should have been made with the alchemy of the empire. This is the reward of the runner-up, and it has been awarded to Gu Xuan.

Although there were side effects to reduce physical strength by 2 points, in general, the attribute value still increased, and Gu Xuan drank the medicine in one gulp.

His attributes became:

[Health: 100%.]

Mana: 600+750.

Strength: H62

Stamina: H75

Dexterity: H60

Perception: H60]

In the finals, Gu Xuan cooperated with Aiji to perform a show. The script is that Ai Ji provoked Gu Xuan with words, and then both sides did not choose to use weapons, but simply used body parts to fight hand-to-hand.

Roughly speculated on Aiji's attributes, in terms of strength and agility, Gu Xuan was weaker than him. However, in terms of physical strength and perception, Gu Xuan was stronger than him. In terms of physical strength, he did not deliberately show it, and the technical aspects of Aiji's fists and feet were much stronger than Gu Xuan.

After holding on for a while, he was weakly defeated. The performance is good, and no one seems to doubt the situation of match-fixing.

"Protecting the country...... Gu Xuan thought of the emperor again, this imperial tool mastered by the emperor was worthy of being the original and strongest imperial tool, and the huge size alone made people's scalps tingle. It's a pity that the little emperor can't master this supreme emperor at all. The core of this emperor tool should be to provide the energy source for the operation of the huge emperor tool, right?

Gu Xuan also wondered what Ai Ji wanted this thing for, if it wasn't for relevant research or something, it would feel useless.

Edge's thoughts, he also roughly guessed. In fact, joining the revolutionary army is the best way, the original revolutionary army overthrew the empire, then the protector of the country naturally fell into the hands of the revolutionary army.

But Aiji also knew that the existence of the Protector Divine Machine would never be handed over to anyone. If he joins the revolutionary army, it is impossible to obtain the core of the Protector Machine, even if he acts as a scientific researcher, it will be difficult to take away the core of the Protector Divine Machine.

Then the internal method of joining the side of Minister Ernest in turn is the way to contact the protector of the country. The Rakshasa is Onest's personal executioner, and in terms of loyalty, he will definitely be tested by Onest to gain trust.

However, this is naturally not enough, no matter how much he is trusted, Ornest will never take Aegie to the place where the Protector God Machine exists. As for being an assassin sneaking in, the palace, especially the place where the little emperor lives, is definitely covered with a barrier cast by alchemy, and there will be soldiers patrolling all the time.

And Gu Xuan's internal affairs to change the external methods of the decay of the imperial capital are particularly important. Because only the resignation of Minister Earnest and the imminent removal of the little emperor is the most likely way for Aggie to obtain the core of the Protector Divine Machine.

These days, Gu Xuan also inquired about the news about Putra's mausoleum, and also bought a map of Putra by the way.

Two years before the plot began, it means that the red pupil must still be in the Imperial Assassination Force now, and has not yet defected to become the Imperial Army. This also means that the plot memorized in Gu Xuan's head is useless at all, because the comic of Slashing Crimson Pupil does not tell about the experience of Crimson Pupil in the assassination unit.

Therefore, Gu Xuan also tried his best to inquire about the news in all aspects, plan an escape route, and make all preparations.

Of course, you can't get a map of the mausoleum, but it's enough to know where the mausoleum is. When the time comes, it is enough to enter the mausoleum and obtain a map of the mausoleum from one of the guardians.

It is worth mentioning that the guardians of the mausoleum have passed down the secret art of guarding the tomb from generation to generation, and it is said that the parts of the body can be turned into dangerous species, so as to enhance the attributes of the whole body. And they have unique skull ornaments on their bodies, not just decorations, the number of skulls corresponds to the level of the guardian's mastery of secret arts.

However, Gu Xuan also learned an interesting news, that is, the guardians in the mausoleum have always been very "peaceful and self-contained"! None of them came out to rob the caravans, nor did they rob the women and bring them back to bear offspring. It's really just honestly guarding their king's legacy.

However, the Imperial Assassination Force is going to launch a strategic plan for the mausoleum, so this operation is somewhat intriguing.

The guardian of the mausoleum did not do anything beyond his duty at all, and paid the tribute on time. But it was attacked by the Empire. Then the intention of the empire is very obvious, that is, to seize the entire heritage of the mausoleum, which is a large treasure that the empire cannot resist.

Thinking of this, Gu Xuan found a misunderstanding in his previous thinking. He had always thought that the Empire had launched an operation to obtain the relics of the Fusion Emperor Craftsman. Now it seems that it is not, the empire is operating simply because the legacy of the mausoleum is too rich.

The history that has been passed down to the present day represents the legacy that has been passed down to the present day. The wealth brought by this inheritance should be the reason why the empire really attacked the mausoleum.

But it's okay, at least Gu Xuan's chances of fishing in troubled waters to obtain the relics of the craftsman have increased by one point.

......

Leaving the residence, there were still two days before the Imperial Assassination Force launched a raid on the mausoleum, and Gu Xuan was ready to rush over early to guard a position.

"Chelsea, it's normal for our killers to die, so you are for Taeko, and you must also cheer up, the association needs you to deliver the news."

Gu Xuan looked intently, although the voice of the conversation was so small that he couldn't hear it at all, the three words of Chelsea attracted his heart.

A girl with long orange-red hair wearing headphones, wearing a British uniform, can't see her face because she has her back to her, but judging by her figure alone, she is very good. She also appears to be talking to two women.

The girl, who appeared to be Chelsea, nodded, then turned away, revealing the appearance of the two women she was blocking.

One is an old woman with wrinkled cheeks. A beautiful girl who was as tall as Chelsea, her eyes narrowed into a line and smiled, as if she didn't know what she was thinking.

Suddenly, Gu Xuan keenly sensed that the eyes of the two women were also looking at him.

Some are in a hurry and exposed...... Gu Xuan had no choice but to pretend to look around again, and happened to see a protégé of the Imperial Fist Temple who had several faces, and it didn't matter if the two were familiar with each other or not. Anyway, he pretended to be very familiar with the conversation, like an image waiting for a friend.

The old woman watched Gu Xuan gradually disappear from her sight, and slowly withdrew her flat eyes, as if nothing had happened, and took the tall young girl next to her to a hotel.

"Xia Nai, did you notice that young man just now?" When she came to a house opened by the hotel, the old woman said calmly.

"Yes, Master Barbara. Could that person be from the Empire's side? The tall girl named Xia Nai asked suspiciously.

"It should be, but we certainly didn't find out who we were. But the strength of that man was so strong that I almost looked away, and I really thought he was just an ordinary person for a while. Don't take it lightly, this mission is crucial. After Barbara said this, the two of them went about their own things in silence.

They are killers, and their words can easily lead to information exposure. So unless there is a necessary exchange of information, they will be silent and people will not even notice their existence!
