Chapter 4: Riots in the Palace
"I'm so sorry that I would like to ask the two ambassadors to continue to rest here until the situation has calmed down. β
In this way, the attendant hurriedly closed the door and left Li Mengxi and Hinata Nain in the large room where they were resting. And after he left, Hinata Naine looked at Li Mengxi at the first time and asked: "The situation looks quite tense." What the hell is going on?"
It's a pity that even Li Mengxi still doesn't know what he shouldn't know, but he has an idea: "Since you want to know so much, why don't we go and join in the fun?"
"Join in the fun?" "Hinata Nain couldn't help but show a speechless expression, "Is this kind of thing so simple? If they didn't mind letting us go and join in the fun, they wouldn't have brought us back here, right?
"Of course they wouldn't do that. That's why invisible magic is needed here, so you can move freely, right?"
"Why is everything so easy to say from your mouth? You must know that ordinary invisibility magic is not Moriarty's inexplicable invisibility magic, which can only last for a few minutes at most. Haven't you even considered the risks of doing this without a clue, and if we were caught, we would go from being a diplomatic ambassador to a spy?"
"Of course I know that. Li Mengxi didn't change his confident smile, "So the point is to use stealth magic to quickly move to a place where we can watch the play safely." For example......
After recalling the model of the castle in his mind for a while, Li Mengxi put on a confident smile and stretched out his hand to point upwards and said, "The top of here." β
"I see!" "Hinata immediately realized, "Generally speaking, the rooftop that no one can go up to is indeed a busy point! But if we're gone, what are we going to do here? If someone comes in and sees no one, we're going to show our stuff!"
"In this regard, you only need to use a puppet!"
"Eh!" Hinata couldn't help but show a skeptical expression, "Isn't that a stand-in item that you only use to escape from monsters?
"Do you think monsters are that stupid?" Li Mengxi laughed playfully, "What fooled them was not the shape of the puppet in the first place, but the confusing skills attached to the puppet. But even that shouldn't work against targets other than the enemy, but the situation we're in is very special. β
"What's going on?" Hinata immediately asked curiously.
"This is the fact that we are still at war with the Empire! As long as this fact remains unchanged, then the units that are systematically judged to be subordinate to the Empire are technically our enemies. In other words, anyone who is in the empire will be confused by the Shikigami puppet. Without exception. β
"Is it really possible to do this!" Faced with the fact that she had never thought of it, Hinata immediately exclaimed.
"Well, I've done experiments when I thought about it, so it's fine. β
"In that case, let's try it quickly!" After the words were closed, Hinata Nain couldn't wait to unfold his control panel, "Although I haven't hunted recently, there should be still some left of Shikigami dolls...... Ahh
Immediately, under the manipulation of Hinata, a human-shaped paper talisman immediately flashed out of the place in front of her where there was nothing, and then landed firmly in the palm of her hand.
While holding a prop called a "Shikigami doll" like this, Naine Hinata thought quickly and made up her mind. So, she raised her hand and threw the doll towards a nearby sofa chair.
The puppet that flew out of the palm of the hand was also long in the wind, quickly reaching the standard size of a person, and then landed on the sofa chair in a posture similar to that of a sitting.
In this way, Naine Hinata completed the configuration of the props on her side. At the same time, Li Mengxi's side also completed it at the same time.
"Uh......" Immediately, after looking at the actual effect of the two paper dolls sitting opposite, Hinata Naine couldn't help but show a rather skeptical expression and said, "It's not so much a fake, but it's not a disguise at all!
"Of course, it's probably because of the usage.,Shikigami puppets have not been limited by the system so far.,That is, as long as it's not attacked, it's theoretically possible to exist forever.γ And the people of the Empire will never attack our two ambassadors. So, we have plenty of time. β
"But it's better to do it without further ado!" Hinata said eagerly, "Hurry up and scout, come back soon!"
As she said this, she walked quickly towards the door, and as she went, she quickly wrote a line of incantation in the void in front of herβit was the magic of invisibility. And as the effect of the magic began to take effect, her body became transparent in front of Li Mengxi.
Of course, this is because the two have a friendly relationship, so there is a kind of system welfare. Otherwise, from Li Mengxi's side, it should not be possible to see Hinata Nain's figure.
In the same way, Li Mengxi's posture at this time should have completely disappeared in the eyes of outsiders. Because he also used magic right behind Naine Hinata.
In this way, the two who had hidden their figures cautiously opened the door and walked out of the large room behind them.
It is likely that the current emergency has mobilized the entire castle manpower, and there is no shadow of half a person in the corridor at this time. Therefore, not to mention the posture of Li Mengxi and Hinata Nayin, no one can notice the opening and closing of the door.
Such a situation can't help but make the two of them emboldened. They didn't tiptoe at all, but strode in stride.
However, as soon as they walked on their front feet, the attendant in charge of them emerged from the other end of the hallway, and walked briskly to the door of the room.
"Your Excellency, two ambassadors!" called the chamberlain as he knocked on the door. However, he didn't get a response, which scared him away.
Didn't those two people run out!
As soon as he thought of this, the attendant didn't care about any diplomatic etiquette, and hurriedly opened the door after explaining a "rude" to himself. At this moment, he inevitably fell for the blindfold set up in the room.
Two large humanoid pieces of paper on one side of an armchair. This is a realistic situation, but in the eyes of the attendant officer, it immediately becomes Li Mengxi and Hinata Nain, who are sitting in the house. All this was under the effect of confusion, and the vision made up in his own mind made him completely believe it to be true.
"Is there anything important?" Li Mengxi, who was disguised, immediately questioned when he saw the attendant officer breaking in.
Hearing this, the attendant officer hurriedly explained: "It's nothing." It's to ask the two of you if you lack something. Like fruits, tea, etc. β
"Nope. The disguised Hinata answered with some unpleasantness, "The things here are quite well prepared." If anything, it's quiet. β
"Hey, hey!," the attendant immediately laughed, and then took his leave as he stepped back, "In that case, I won't bother much." β
With that, the chamberlain withdrew from the house and closed the door. Although he received some reprimands inside, he breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and at the same time said in his heart with some fear: Too imprudent! Too imprudent! Fortunately, these two people are more honest, otherwise they would ...... Looks like we're going to have to find someone to keep an eye on it.
"Dalala!"
At this moment, a sudden series of sounds startled the attendant officer. Immediately, out of curiosity and caution, he immediately trotted all the way in the direction from which the voice came.
After turning a corner, he finally discovered the truth - it turned out that the window was open. But there wasn't a figure in the vicinity, so it was probably blown by the wind.
How the hell do those people work!
The helpless attendant complained as he walked further towards the four open windows.
