Chapter Seventy-Two: Toss
In the Cass Imperial Capital, in a mansion in the inner city, Elle was lying on the bed, with a sickly face. Angelina www.biquge.info was standing aside to report to Ellie, but her face was also full of tiredness. Five days have passed since Wu Tian left the Gรผlen family, and when Angelina tracked the energy fluctuations detected by the crystal ball to the outer city, she originally thought it was just in vain, but Wu Tian just waited there. There was a big fight on the spot, but Angelina felt helpless every time she remembered the battle, a powerlessness she never wanted to admit. Although her attacks were violent and powerful, they were as useless as a stone in the sea, and although there were a group of members of the magic group who helped, the mages treated each other as if they were nothing. In the end, Elle rushed over after talking to the Great Elder of the Gรผlen Clan, with Ellie's ability as a magic master, she was still powerless to fight, the ghostly figure of the other party, if it weren't for Elle's crystal ball to know the location of the other party, I am afraid she would also be defeated, with the unstoppable qi armor of the high level of the Great War Master, she couldn't withstand the opponent's fingers, and Ellie's magic shield was also fierce. As a last resort, Elle used the "Shadow of Karma", which is just like the phantom used by Gaby at the beginning, "Shadow of Karma" is a special move that can only be used with the help of a crystal ball near the energy array, as soon as this move came out, Wu Tian had to retreat, because he was still not sure to take this move, not to mention that Gaby used this move after the energy array was stolen, and he still had that kind of power, and now that the Kass energy array has not been stolen, the power may be even worse. Seeing Wu Tian leave Elle, Ai Li also put away the "Shadow of Kama", because in the outer city after all, it was a little far away from the energy array, and she could only support the phantom to strike a blow at most, but seeing that Wu Tian was like entering a no-man's land, she and Angelina were also angry. But now is just the beginning of the nightmare. What guards, what probes, everything is ineffective. Ellie and Angelina were harassed every day for several days. Especially Angelina, I don't know if she was marked down, Wu Tian can always find her position, but always retreats after a fight. She and Elle have also been ambushed, but in terms of detection, the other party seems to be better at detecting than Ellie's crystal ball, and they can always find Angelina when she is alone, and finally Angelina can't bear to fight desperately. As a result, due to impetuousness, he was hit by a finger on the head, and although he was covered by air armor, he still felt like he was going to fall asleep in an instant. At this moment, her eyes met each other's eyes, and although it was only for a few seconds, Angelina always felt like it had been a long time, but no matter how much she recalled, she couldn't remember what had happened. For this reason, Elle used the crystal ball to give Angelina a full body examination. finally found the mark that Wu Tian had made on her. Because the energy of the sign is too weak, it cannot be detected without close inspection. I don't know if it's because I'm tired or angry, but on the fifth day after I had to fight Wu Tian head-on, Ellie fell ill. And since fighting to the death with Angelina, Wu Tian has never appeared again, maybe he knows the reason why Angelina and Elle live together now.
In fact, what they didn't know was that Wu Tian took the risk to harass them like this, not to retaliate against them, but to improve the data storage of the house they live in now and the identity that Lilan is now pretending. In the inner city. Residents' records are detailed and managed. And Angelina, who is the commander-in-chief of the inner city guards, has the highest level of information archives, like Wu Tianyao Lilan's identity has lived in the inner city for more than a year, so Angelina must have a piece of information, so Wu Tiancai pestered Angelina. Angelina, as a high-level war master, will definitely not work if she directly uses the "Soul Dementoring Dafa", only when she is in a coma.
Now Wu Tian's martial arts have been perfected, the so-called Great War Master on the Kama Continent is no longer a threat to him, the only thing that can cause damage to him is Ellie's move "Kama Shadow", Wu Tian always feels that the phantom is weird, it belongs to the magic of summoning, if it is a power like Kama, he is definitely not an opponent. Although it is now the time when the strength of the Kasdi capital guards is the weakest, the strength of the Kas side is not what Wu Tian is worried about, the only thing he is worried about is Lei, and Lei's mystery and ability make him worry.
The residence data has been done, as long as it is not a city-wide census, they are all safe now, because the use of teleportation will be detected, Wu Tian is worried that the frequent use of the teleportation array will be guessed by people with detective minds to the area where he is staying, so he has not used the teleportation array anymore, and he is walking around with light skills. At this time, he was lying on the sofa as if he hadn't slept for several days in a row, and he was so tired that he was about to fall to the ground.
"Master, in fact, that Angelina is not your opponent, I think I can also entangle her, that Ellie is also sick, why don't we act now. When Wu Tiantan was about to fall asleep, an old woman walked in, her wrinkled face was ordinary, but her eyes were shining seductively.
"Look, look, you can't pretend to be anyone, those eyes completely betray you, but forget it, anyway, this old woman is a lonely old man, and she doesn't have any relatives, so she won't meet anyone. Wu Tian always complained that Lilan couldn't pretend to be a person, but he didn't let Lilan pretend to be a blind woman, and even he had to admit that he wanted to look at Lilan's eyes too. "Cass is not terrible, I'm afraid of that guy Lei, I also have a way to deal with the 'God Fighting Array' he set up, but I'm afraid that he has other back-ups, I want to force Cass to be tighter, force Lei over, and fight him. โ
"But it's all up to this, Lei still hasn't come, do they have an agreement, Master, you won't come over if you don't use the grenade. "Lilan was afraid that this would just be a waste of time.
"There is also this possibility, but in any case, the enemy's feeling of secretly being in the light is too uncomfortable, at least to force the Cass side to enter martial law again, that will make us know how much available power there is in the imperial capital, and now in this situation, I don't know how much available power Cass secretly retains. "Although martial law can make people's movements inconvenient, to maintain martial law in the whole city, it will use all the security forces that can be used, and although it is convenient to move to solve martial law, there are many forces that can be flexibly used to deal with various emergencies. In the entire imperial capital, Wu Tian was only afraid of the crystal ball mastered by the two magic masters in the city, and he wanted to concentrate the guards in the city again, all for the sake of Lilan. When he left the kingdom of Nas, he actually used Lilan mainly. Although Xiaolong is his best help, he knows that Xiaolong can't stay on the mainland for long, and he needs a helper who is determined to do the same. And accepting Lilan as an apprentice is for her to believe that she can give her strength, but the premise is to help her regain her strength. But after more than two months of getting along, Wu Tian can't deny that he has developed feelings for Lilan, and he doesn't want her to be in danger, but Lilan doesn't want him to take risks alone, and he can't bear to refuse Lilan to follow him. Lilan's understanding of martial arts is still in its infancy, and her skills are already good. But in terms of attack power, which of the high-level war masters on the continent will be weak, the only weakness is only the understanding of martial arts. Some things don't depend on the power of oxen.
"Then how to make the imperial capital under martial law?" Lilan felt that after harassing Elle and the two of them in the past few days, martial law should have been imposed a long time ago, and it was impossible to allow an intruder who harassed them every day to wander around the city, they must know what martial law was. For Wu Tian's kind of skill. Ordinary guards are useless.
"In our hometown, there is an ancient trade, that is, robbing the rich and helping the poor!hahaha!" Seeing Wu Tian laughing like a nervous person, Lilan didn't know whether he was angry or funny. "They're not martial law, right, someone will put pressure on them. โ
When Elle was lying in the hospital bed, Angelina was the only one left, and she could only pray to God and worship Buddha all day long to let her run into Wu Tian, the plague god, maybe God was "moved" by it, and Wu Tian really stopped harassing her these days. On this day. Suddenly, I received a report that a wealthy family's home had been burglarized. A large number of gold and silver treasures were stolen. This was just the beginning, ten wealthy and noble families were stolen in one day, and the most stolen thing was gold coins. In the eyes of cultivators, money is a little useful, that is, they can buy something that can help their cultivation. , but cultivators actually have a lot more opportunities to get money than ordinary people, and it is also very convenient to do it, so cultivators don't really value money. Suddenly receiving such a report, Angelina would never have connected the theft with Wu Tian, but after receiving reports one after another, she knew that no one could do it except him. The inner city was stolen, but there were people in the outer city throwing gold coins and treasures all over the streets, which told Angelina more clearly that this was Wu Tiangan.
At this moment, when I saw Angelina reporting to Ellie, it was to report on the theft of the entire inner city. Although Angelina knew that it should be a good thing that Wu Tian did, she couldn't figure out what Wu Tian wanted to do, why he was suddenly so interested in money, with Wu Tian's skills, money came when it was called, why did she need to steal. You must know that the mainland looks down on thieves very much, and although the three empires recognize the existence of the thieves' guild, they are only forced to do so.
"What do you think he is doing, is it really just for money?" Angelina asked Ellie to help her clear her mind.
"He wants to put pressure on the Empire, and the biggest idea should be to force the Empire to thunder. "Ellie thinks things are more comprehensive than Angelina," Damn, when the empire is nothing, he only cares about Ray's means. โ
"The royal family and nobles of all ethnic groups in the inner city have complained to me, complaining that the inner city guards are too weak and demanding martial law. Angelina listened and reported back to Ellie.
"A group of wastes who only know how to eat, drink and have fun, there were many opinions on martial law at the beginning, but now it is good, and they take the initiative to ask for martial law, I say that it is better to close their business, and then the city will be quiet. "Ellie has a lot of opinions about the merchants and aristocratic parasites of the Empire. "You tell them that we will find a way to do this, and if we really want martial law, we will do it for a year and a half, and you ask them if they still want martial law. At the same time, go to the outer city and announce that whoever picks up the gold and silver treasures must hand them over to the public, and if they dare not to pay them, once they are verified, they will be killed!"
"Yes, my lord!" Angelina knew this, some special products would be handed over to the public, but the gold and silver and other things were not marked, and there was no way to check them, but she knew that Elle was too lazy to take care of this kind of thing, she didn't value money, and she was happy that the vampire-like merchant gave a little blood, but she still had to do it. "My lord, I'll go down first. โ
"Slow!" Ellie thought of something, "the guards are just a decoration for him, why would he do this?
"Martial law, in fact, the inner city guards of the imperial capital will be weakened. Angelina, as the commander-in-chief, knows best, "Once martial law is imposed, His Royal Highness Alexandre is not in the imperial capital, General Taaffe has also left the imperial capital, the moat must be guarded, and the first-line generals are insufficient, only the subordinates will personally command, and there will be no one available in the inner city except for adults." โ
"I know, but even if there is no martial law, it doesn't make much difference to him. Whenever she thinks of Wu Tian's way of acting, Ai Li has palpitations, "He is thinking about his companions." Don't forget that they were two people entering the imperial capital. Elle finally had the key point in mind.
"That means that he and his companions live in the imperial capital, but I don't know how to live there, I checked the information that there are only residents left in the city who have lived for more than a year. Everyone else was driven out of the inner city of the imperial capital. "Angelina is in charge of all of this best.
"Conduct a city-wide census, verify the population of the city, and remember that everything is to be done by the deputy at the lower level of the relevant staff member in charge of this area. Ellie's feelings grew clearer and clearer.
"Deputy?" Angelina didn't understand why she was deputy.
"It's a fact that they are in the inner city, and the inner city is full of eyeliner but there are no suspicious characters, then they must have a way to do it and make the empire believe that all the residents living in the inner city are residents who have lived in the inner city for more than a year," In fact, Elle always thought that Wu Tian entered the inner city from the outer city. You must know that with Wu Tian's swiftness and mystery, it is not impossible to do this. "No matter what method he uses, he can't make everyone think the way he thinks, he must have just manipulated the people in charge at every level. Even you!" Angelina was taken aback at the last sentence.
"Me?" Angelina's voice trembled a little, "You mean I was stunned that time, but I was only stunned for a while. I woke up immediately. โ
"It's just what you think. What if not?" Ellie counted with her hand, "According to the details of the fight with him, and the time I took from the detection to the scene of the fight, it seems that there is a big difference, if I calculate, you not only stunned him for a short time, but also let him do things for a long time, I was negligent." โ
"You're saying the demographic data I have is fake?" Angelina's mouth opened in an O-shape.
"It's not just yours. Every level in charge of the district where he lives is fake, but he certainly doesn't have the time or leisure to do this to everyone. Just let the deputy do it, take the grassroots personnel to verify, there must be residents who should not exist but the information says that there are residents who have lived for more than a year, and that is them. "Ellie finally figured out everything, and of course all of this was only true if the other party had the means to control people's minds.
"Maybe he'll kill a resident to impersonate, knowing that he has a magic skin that can change. Angelina didn't think it would be effective.
"If you want to kill someone, he will kill him early, if he is not an equal enemy, he will disdain to kill, if you want to kill, the moment you are stunned, your life will be gone. Although Elle didn't want to hurt her old friend's self-esteem, it was true, and Angelina would think about it sooner or later. "If he kills people and pretends to be him, there is no need to do such a means to force the empire to impose martial law, once the martial law empire will have no manpower to conduct a census, he is for the sake of his companions, obviously his companions are much weaker than him, and there is no way to deal with the imperial search. โ
Sure enough, Angelina couldn't help but blush when she heard what Ellie said, she was very reluctant to admit it, but this was a fact, and it was obvious that the other party did not treat her as an equal opponent. Think about it, if the whole city is under martial law, it is possible to strictly inspect a certain area, but it is not enough to conduct a city-wide census in a short period of time. You must know that the census is a small matter, the arrest is large, and the manpower is insufficient, even if it is found, it is useless to search for it.
"Then the subordinate will do it immediately!" Angelina thought about the whole thing and already had a plan in mind.
"Check one area at a time, don't check together, people are enough, but there are not enough people who have the ability to catch people, and if you check all the way, even if you can't catch people, you can force them out of the city. If you can catch his companion, don't hurt her, and prevent the dog from jumping off the wall. "Ai Li is afraid that Wu Tian will go berserk, she is the only one in the entire imperial capital who can fight against Wu Tian, once she goes berserk, everyone in the empire will be in danger of their lives.
Angelina couldn't help but stomp her feet when she heard this, very angry but helpless. At the beginning, she had this feeling about Lei threatening the empire in the imperial capital, and now although Wu Tian is not as strong as Lei, it also makes the empire helpless.
With a way to deal with Wu Tian, it seems that Ai Li's mood has improved a lot, and her illness has been better by more than half at once, and she has been lurking next to the census takers with Angelina since the next day. The inner city is big, but it was ordered by the emperor himself, led by Ai Li personally, and the manpower was also very sufficient. In fact, the people in the inner city are not complicated, most of them have family backgrounds and live in the family town. Some private traders and wealthy people are in the minority, so it is easier to find out. Because of the census family, each family will also send people to help, and the survey is very fast.
"Master, have you heard?" Because the census was too loud, when it was about to be found in their area, Lilan had already heard some rumors, "It's about to find out our district." โ
"It's okay, they're doing the right thing, but you have to let them have time to follow and check. Wu Tian thought of a bad idea again.
After several days of census, just as Elle and the others were about to finish the search of the east city and find the west city, a major incident happened in the palace. The protective array arranged by Lei was touched again, although Ai Li didn't want to care, but this time Wu Tian also patronized the palace bedroom, although it was Emperor Lot's stand-in who was warned by the dagger, but this incident was enough to make Lott furious. Lott immediately ordered Elle to return to the academy and the palace, leave anything that happens in the inner city, let the city guards check if someone is stolen, no matter what, the palace cannot be lost. As long as Wu Tian wants to steal the energy array, he must enter the palace and the academy, just watch this once, and don't worry about other things. In desperation, Ellie returned to the academy, leaving Angelina alone to investigate. But then Angelina was attacked again, this time she was also injured, and all the people who participated in the census were more or less injured, which was a naked warning, but Elle and the others had no choice but to terminate the census, but they already knew that Wu Tian and they were in Xicheng, but what if they knew, in fact, Wu Tian was helpless even if he stood in front of them.
