Chapter 4: The Assassin in the Shadows (Part IV) 2
"Turn right at the first intersection. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Ye Kexin ordered this time.
"How do I feel like I'm going around in circles, sir." Brandton turned to the right, and asked with some confusion in his mouth.
"Why so much nonsense, just listen to me. Turn left at the third intersection and go straight ahead. Ye Kexin replied impatiently.
"Got it." Bai Lanton didn't dare to speak again, but listened to Ye Kexin's orders such as "turn right at the third intersection" or "go straight to the end of the passage and turn left", and kept moving forward, and the "O2" reserve in the equipment utilization rate option in the corner of the sight has been unconsciously reduced to three percent.
"Pick up your pace, turn the next corner, and you'll see the exit." Ye Kexin shouted loudly. Sure enough, when Brownon ran to the end of the passage and turned to the next section of the passage, a door marked with a red warning light appeared at the end of the passage.
Run, run to victory.
"Can you open this door for me?" Brandton asked, as he ran wildly.
"I'm working hard, don't rush!" Ye Kexin's hands flashed on the keyboard like phantoms, even if Ye Zifeng was present, he could only be ashamed, "It's okay right away." ”
"I'm almost there, my oxygen reserves have dropped to a critical level, and I will only be able to breathe carbon dioxide in another sixty seconds."
"You're annoying!" Ye Kexin yelled into the microphone, and at the same time did not leave the keyboard with both hands, "Okay, untie it, go in." ”
"Where's the door?"
"It's the F-12 passage on the 10th floor." Ye Kexin let out a long breath. But the development of things is really beyond the control of Ye Kexin and Brandton. The entire laurel base shook.
"What's going on!" Brandton shouted.
"I don't know, don't worry about these yet, have you gone in?"
"It's not close!" Branton shouted, but as soon as the white light pierced Branton's left shoulder, blood gushed out.
"How, maybe!" Brandton slammed to the ground, he felt the cold and biting cold of the outside air, and he also felt the pressure inside him that was higher than the outside squeezing his blood out of the wound, and the rifle slipped in front of the door because of the fall. In fact, Brandon used to be able to touch the mechanical door lock with his hand, but now he could barely touch the grip of the rifle when he reached out.
"What's the matter, Major Brandton, answer me, Major Brandton." Ye Kexin's inquiring voice kept coming, "I see that you didn't come out, what happened, answer me quickly, Major Brownon." ”
"It's annoying." Brandton turned off the communication, Ye Kexin's anxious inquiry disappeared immediately, Brandon picked up the rifle, but the strength was lost from his body bit by bit, the lower air pressure made Brandon like a balloon about to burst, as if something wanted to get out of his body, Brandton knew that he would not live long, and they had the strength to open this door again. But he still had the strength to pull the trigger.
Suddenly shook the right arm of the gun, aiming at the black shadow that was constantly approaching behind him, the black shadow was obviously startled, and his body trembled, and Brownon took advantage of this gap to pull the trigger, and the mountain-like recoil continued to be transmitted to the arm, originally there was no slightest but felt that the recoil was extremely large at this time, which also made the first five bullets all deviate from the target, but fortunately, the weight of the rifle itself pressed down the muzzle, and the rest of the bullets were all poured into the black shadow's body, and the black shadow fell to the ground after making a strange grunt. Brandton was in no mood to find out whether the shadow was alive or dead, and the arm holding the rifle had no more strength, and fell to the ground with a thud, and the rifle slipped to the side.
That's it, dead? Brandton wanted to laugh now, to laugh out loud, to laugh at his own ignorance, at his own despair. Brownon pulled up the squad list and clicked on his own column. It's time to say goodbye. Blanton clicked on K· I·A, a new dialog box pulled out.
Areyousure?
"Drink, it's kind." BURRANTON DIDN'T KNOW WHERE THE POWER CAME FROM, HE LAUGHED, AND THEN TAPPED YES. His vision blurred, and Brandton couldn't see clearly.
"Sir, you're here." A voice came. Didn't you turn off the call with the central control center? Brownon thought in confusion.
"Sir, you're hurt." The voice was a little urgent, "Hurry up and leave." ”
Brandton felt that a person passed by him, was it a hallucination, but he felt it very really.
Oxygen filled the repair lane, and the bleeding rate of Burranton's fast-bleeding wound slowed down. Yes, the door opened.
"Yes, who is it?" Brandton asked weakly.
"It's me, Sergeant Ranchi." A familiar voice was heard, and Brandton felt his body being lifted up, and dragged forward a few steps before placing it against the wall, before the voice came again.
"This is the twelfth passage in Area F of the deputy tenth floor, and the chief has been injured, and support is needed here."
It was indeed Lanchi's voice, and Brandton grinned in an imperceptible arc, and then fainted deeply.
"This is, where?" Ye Zifeng slowly opened his eyes, the orange-yellow light shining from outside stung his eyes the moment he opened them, Ye Zifeng closed his eyes without frowning, and at the same time stretched out his arm, covering the strong light, Ye Zifeng tried to open his eyes again.
"This is, where?" Ye Zifeng asked the same question again, and supported his body hard, so that his upper body sat up. The white sheets were lifted by Ye Zifeng, and the orange-yellow light became soft in an instant, without the previous dazzling, Ye Zifeng turned his head to look out the window. One side is pure white, without any color.
"What's going on, I remember my ······" Ye Zifeng lifted the sheet covering his legs, stood up from the soft big bed, and habitually put on a pair of slippers placed next to the bed. Ye Zifeng slowly walked high to the side of the bed, and the soft feeling transmitted to his feet through the slippers was as if Ye Zifeng was stepping on a cloud, and it seemed that he would jump to the ceiling with a slight jump. But Ye Zifeng was in a trance at this time and didn't even realize this, and the bearskin carpet under his feet exuded a soft light.
Standing by the window, the pure white outside the window gradually dissipated, and the scenery began to appear in Ye Zifeng's sight, the emerald green lawn, the tall poplar and locust trees, the ivory granite paved stone brick road, the angel-shaped fountain in the center of the turntable in the distance, the washbasin that appeared every other distance by the road, and the small yellow and red flowers dotted on the lawn. Completely designed and laid out a medieval palace courtyard, Ye Zifeng couldn't help but be stunned.
"I remember, I felt like I was hit by something in the car, and then ······" Ye Zifeng didn't look back for a while, turned around and walked towards the house, and at the same time kept whispering the memories in his mind, "After that, I don't have any impression after that, but I should have been sent to the hospital, this is the hospital, right?" Ye Zifeng looked up at the layout of the room, the baroque style, the beautiful lines covered the entire bedroom, the dark warm colors filled every corner of the room, Ye Zifeng couldn't help but feel that his body was slightly hot, although he didn't feel cold before.
"This should be, Extra Ward······" Ye Zifeng said puzzledly, "But that hospital has such a ward, it seems that it is for the president." ”
But then Ye Zifeng seemed to think of something, and shook his head while smiling bitterly: "How can it be, this should be Newcastle Academy." But I haven't been here before, so what's the point, there are so many places I haven't been. ”
Ye Zifeng came to the huge cherry wood door, pulled the doorknob made of a whole piece of copper, and pulled it inward, and the seemingly heavy wooden door was easily opened, and the door was just opened, and two soft voices came from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, you are awake."
“······” Ye Zifeng looked at the two maids dressed in court maid costumes outside the door and bowed respectfully to him, and said to himself in a sweet tone of seven words, "Your Majesty, you are awake." This, this is incredible, no, no, it should be said that this is outrageous!
“!” Ye Zifeng's eyes widened suddenly, and then he quickly took a step back, closed the double-opened door with a bang, blocked the door with his body, and gasped for breath, it seems that the impact of the previous scene on Ye Zifeng was too great.
"Is the world crazy?" Ye Zifeng clutched his chest and said breathlessly, "What's going on, by the way, it must be Keiichi Yamamoto's old bastard, he's taking revenge on me." It seems that these people will have to be driven away before they can go to Keiichi Yamamoto. ”
Ye Zifeng habitually reached out and wanted to take out the wallet in his pocket, but Ye Zifeng only now found out that he was not wearing casual clothes that he was shooting, but a robe and pajamas made of golden honeysuckle silk, Ye Zifeng's hand was now inserted in the belt around his waist, and the big opening and closing of his chest made Ye Zifeng can't help but pull the placket to cover his bare chest, and a trace of chill hit Ye Zifeng's heart. Ye Zifeng shuddered. Where is this?
By the way, the person at the door should know. Ye Zifeng thought of the two maids at the door, opened the door again, and Ye Zifeng poked his head out.
"Your Majesty." The two maids did not leave, and the smile on their faces did not weaken in the slightest because of Ye Zifeng's closing of the door before, but became more intense, but the fine sweat dripping from their foreheads betrayed the hearts of the two of them, and they were nervous, very nervous.
"Well, I'm asking you something." Ye Zifeng said tentatively, "What is it, when." ”
"It's eight o'clock in the morning, Your Majesty." The maid on the left replied with a smile.
"No, no, I mean······ Hmmm······" Ye Zifeng shook his head again and again, and then thought about the wording, "I mean, it's, um, what year, right, what year?" ”
"Huh?" The two maids first glanced at each other with puzzled faces, and then the maid on the right looked at Ye Zifeng: "Your Majesty is really a noble person who forgets things, it is November of the first year of your reign, and your favorite plane tree is already flourishing." ”
"Sycamore trees?" Ye Zifeng said suspiciously, and then retreated into the room.
When did I love the Sycamore Tree? Even if there is really a phoenix on it, he is burned by the fire and he becomes nirvana, I am turned into ashes, what do you like? What I like is the Stalingrad and the novel, and by the way, Bermuda. Ye Zifeng thought about these nonsensical things. Could it be that I have crossed over? Can't it, other people cross the tree and turn left three times and turn right three times and then swoop through, or just jump down from the building and wear more, what am I? Rolling twice on the sidewalk after being knocked off the roof of a car by an unknown object? Too, too much, whatever?
Ye Zifeng refused to accept this crossing in his heart, but what did the two maids say just now? I'm in power? Meaning, I'm this courtyard, no, I'm the owner of this country that I don't know what it's called? The turn was too fast, and Ye Zifeng's thinking couldn't keep up.
But the two maids outside didn't seem to want to give Ye Zifeng any more time to think nonsense, and the two knocked on the cherry wood door where Ye Zifeng was leaning at the same time, and the knocking sound was uniform.
"Your Majesty, it's time for breakfast, please let us go in and change your clothes." The two spoke at the same time, and Ye Zifeng panicked after hearing it.
"No, no, I don't need you to help me change my clothes." Ye Zifeng hurriedly responded, it seems that if he wants to make an excuse to prevaricate in the past, no matter how he says, he can't let the two girls change his clothes, Ye Zifeng thought in his heart. Suddenly, Ye Zifeng's heart moved, "Oh, that, I'm in a good mood today, I'll do it myself for such a trivial matter as changing clothes." ”
"Oh!" There was a surprised voice outside the door, Ye Zifeng was secretly proud of his wit in his heart, turned around and locked the door, and then walked to the wardrobe, and opened the rosewood wardrobe carved with tulip patterns with a click, a refreshing direction came to his face, Ye Zifeng couldn't help but close his eyes and take a deep breath.
Ye Zifeng picked out a dress with gold flowers on a white background and a gold-rimmed neckline rolled from a pile of clothes, and began to put it on his body. But soon, Ye Zifeng found that wanting to put on this dress was not as simple as he imagined, Ye Zifeng sighed helplessly, came to the door and opened the door, he finally knew why the two maids were so surprised after hearing the proposal that he wanted to wear clothes by himself after closing the door before.
"Well, I'll admit it's a little hard to put on this outfit." Ye Zifeng opened the door in embarrassment, and the two maids walked into the room with a smile on their faces and began to dress Ye Zifeng. The two of them worked together, and finally put this gorgeous and high-quality aristocratic dress on Ye Zifeng's body ten minutes later. Ye Zifeng can also be regarded as a tall figure, with a righteous face, after wearing this dress, it is even more so, such slim clothes Ye Zifeng has never worn it, his favorite is a five-hundred-dollar set of Admiralty uniforms, he is very fond of the small lapels of the suit-style Admiralty fleet uniforms, this may be the reason why Ye Zifeng picked and picked this dress, not only the small lapels with gold rim are particularly luxurious, but also this dress has many similarities with the Admiralty fleet uniform. Unconsciously, Ye Zifeng somewhat forgot his current situation, and he seemed to be a little into the play.
"Well, that's good." Ye Zifeng twisted his body left and right in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, very satisfied with his handsome image now, the only drawback is that his hair is a little messy, but this is nothing, Ye Zifeng is not the kind of person who cares about his image very much.
"Your Majesty, please come to the dining room for dinner, your breakfast is ready." A woman reminded softly.
"Oh, by the way, I don't know your names yet." Ye Zifeng turned around with a smile on his face and looked at the two maids standing behind him.
"Huh?" The two maids had puzzled expressions on their faces, and after glancing at each other, they looked at Ye Zifeng.
"Your Majesty, do you really, don't remember?" The maid on the left asked cautiously.
"Well, that, my head hurts a little when I wake up in the morning, maybe I suddenly got covered." Ye Zifeng scratched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly.
The two maids had "so it was" expressions on their faces at the same time, and smiles crept up their faces again.
"My name is Jasmine." The maid on the right said.
"My name is Rose." The maid on the left said.
"Oh, I remember." Ye Zifeng slapped his head and pretended to have a "sudden epiphany" expression, "Okay, Jasmine Rose, let's go out for breakfast first." ”
Ye Zifeng raised his legs and walked out, Jasmine Rose followed closely behind, and a shout came from the staircase at the end of the corridor.
"Get out of the way! Let me go to Your Majesty! Get out of the way! You bastard! A voice was full of anger and roared loudly, Ye Zifeng could hear it from his already hoarse voice, this person had already shouted out his throat, there must be something important.
"Don't be rude! You can come and go here as you please! Quickly retreat, don't disturb my king's rest! Another replied in a loud voice, without the slightest hint of fear or retreat, and the sound of metal armor clashing could be heard as a standoff between the guards and the intruders.
"What else are you resting on? The enemy has reached Moss! The empire has lost more than half of its territory! Does this emperor still have time to rest! The hoarse voice came again, this time he shouted louder, but the hoarse throat made the last few words have turned into a breathless sound, and Ye Zifeng listened hard to hear what the intruder said.
"Shut up!" The guards obviously had no words to refute what had come in, and could only shout dryly from the people who had come in.
"Your Majesty, please ignore it and go have breakfast first." Jasmine stood behind Ye Zifeng and said respectfully.
"Nope." Ye Zifeng's eyebrows furrowed, and as soon as he heard about the battle, Ye Zifeng came to his senses, "Go and see." ”
As he spoke, Ye Zifeng raised his leg and walked towards the staircase, and Jasmine Rose hurriedly followed.
"Your Majesty!" The person who was stopped by the guards saw Ye Zifeng coming out of the bedroom at a glance, raised his right hand and kept waving, while shouting loudly in his mouth.
"You stand down first." Ye Zifeng somehow said such a sentence very casually, and waved his hand at the guards at the same time.
"Yes, my king." The guards put away their axes and retreated. Ye Zifeng stepped forward again and looked at the person kneeling in front of him.
A blood-colored silk robe glowed burgundy in the sunlight outside the window, the gold necklace around his neck drooped naturally, and his unkempt hair could see the urgency of this person's coming.
"Your Majesty, eight hundred miles of urgent war report. The front-line army retreated on the Allah Pass, and now all the troops we deployed on the northern plain of Moss have been annihilated, and the 100,000-strong Northern Steppe Army has only fled back less than 300 people, and the enemy has approached the Moss River. I ordered the 500 Horace men stationed in the town of Moss to cross the river and fight, but there has been no reply. Once the enemy breaks through the town of Moss, the road to the imperial capital will be clear, Your Majesty! With the 10,000 guards stationed in the imperial capital and the 5,000 nobles and private troops temporarily assembled, they couldn't stop the other party's 100,000 army at all! The more he talked, the more excited he became, and he almost came with a handful of snot, hugging Ye Zifeng's thigh and crying, "Your Majesty, let's go to the expedition." Looking at his constantly trembling body, Ye Zifeng, no matter how sluggish he was, felt that the situation was a little urgent, and immediately bent down to support the man's shoulders and helped him up, the man's whole body was shocked, and he raised his head a little stiffly, looking at Ye Zifeng's face, the short gray beard and the wrinkles on his face like a knife, which showed that this person was old, and I am afraid that his qualifications were not shallow.
But despite this, Ye Zifeng, who had just come to this new environment, didn't have a clue, and Ye Zifeng didn't understand how to deal with this matter. If it had been left in the original place, Ye Zifeng would have already said "Colonel Sakurai, inform the fleet to be ready to go, and go all out when encountering the enemy" while walking to the electronic sand table, looking at the various information displayed on the three-dimensional projection, and thinking about the next plan of action in his heart. But unfortunately, there is no Sakurai Naoto here, there is no electronic sand table and three-dimensional projection here, there is no fleet, there is no all-out, there is only an old man in a gorgeous costume who is crying in tears, and Jasmine Rose is following behind him, and then, by the way, there is also the guard who was pushed aside before and a guard opposite this guard. This is all the people that Ye Zifeng has awakened and known in the world, plus himself, there are only six people in total. Not to mention what the world looks like. Ye Zifeng's appearance of this world is limited to his so-called emperor's bedroom and the garden view outside the bedroom, as well as this corridor covered with a carpet of red and golden flowers, and even behind the door opposite the bedroom, Ye Zifeng doesn't know what it is, let alone the Allah Pass and the Moss North Plains and other place names, he has not even seen the map of the empire.
"You get up first." Ye Zifeng pulled up the old man who was kneeling on the ground, "Lead the way, I want to look at the map first, by the way, what's your name?" ”
"My name is ······ Your Majesty, you don't know me anymore? I am the Earl of Pendes, Minister of War. The old man looked at Ye Zifeng with a shocked expression, but he still hurriedly made a gesture of please, and led Ye Zifeng to start going downstairs.
"Wait a minute, Your Majesty, breakfast is not used yet!" Rose shouted hurriedly from behind.
"Next time, military affairs matter." Ye Zifeng didn't say a word back, this sentence deeply moved the Earl Pendes, who was walking in front and led the way, and the old man almost knelt on the steps and shouted "Your Majesty Shengming".
