Chapter 166: The Trap (Part II)

In the middle of the night, the silent city of Garcia was shrouded in a thick darkness, and only the Clark Tower still exuded a magnificent and magical light, proudly showing its majestic form to the world. Around it, one after another colorful magical light continued to slide down from top to bottom like a firefly, and then a clearly visible trail of light flowed through the air, seemingly never stopping.

To reach the Clark Tower, which symbolizes the center of power in the imperial capital, you must first pass through a high inner wall, which is guarded by the most elite royal knights of the empire, and is the throat fortress of the imperial capital's power center.

Therefore, this eight-meter-high inner wall is full of ring-shaped towers, and the arrow stacks and shooting holes on the city wall are neatly and orderly distributed, as long as someone comes to attack, as soon as the wooden planks covering these arrow stacks and shooting holes are pushed open, a dense array of arrows will immediately appear!

Under the city wall, an artificial ring river more than three meters wide and more than five meters deep separates the Clark Tower from the inner wall and the Clark Tower.

At the drawbridge below the Ring River, the most elite troops are guarded, and even if the Sword Saint Anthony himself comes to attack, they can use the defensive weapons and magic array here to resist for a while.

Tang Jie lifted the cloak on his head, and glanced at the city wall with a sharp gaze, and then felt a compelling cold and murderous aura rushing towards him!

How much did it cost to capture such a fortress?

What's more, even if this inner city wall is captured, there is still the Clark Tower, which is said to never fall, waiting for the attackers!

The people who live in it can be described as having peace of mind, but again, it is difficult for other people to get in, and it is difficult for them to get out of it.

For such a well-guarded palace, if you want to break in, it is purely because the old birthday star eats arsenic and is impatient, so Tang Jie chose to dress up in disguise, and under the guidance of Radno, he came to the corner of the inner city wall.

Tang Jie was wearing a robe of the Bright God Sect, his clothes were loose and wide, especially when the hat of the robe was worn, others couldn't see Tang Jie's face and appearance clearly.

Radno told Tang Jie how to let him infiltrate the palace, and they had already figured out how to let him disguise himself as a priest of the Cult of Light, and go to the palace to bless Princess Angel and listen to her confession.

In the Imperial Palace, especially in the women's quarters in the Clark Tower, men are not allowed to enter except for His Majesty the Emperor, but people from the Church of Light can.

Therefore, it is a very good idea to disguise yourself as a cleric of the upper echelons of the Illuminati Cult.

Moreover, this robe with his head and feet hidden not only covered Tang Jie's appearance and hair, but also concealed his fierce aura that could not be concealed.

Tang Jie continued the cover of his robe, and from time to time looked at the elite soldiers around him wearing refined armor, secretly speculating about their combat strength.

Each of these soldiers was armed with a spear, a one-handed broadsword at his right waist, a diamond-shaped shield with a lion pattern behind his back, and a weapon slot at his left thigh armor, all armed with a short-handled axe with a wide blade and a pointed back, the sharp blade of which shimmered in the darkness of the night.

This short-handled axe allows these soldiers to quickly pull out their short axes on their legs or throw them to kill them, even if they are shot down in battle, or use the diamond-shaped one-handed shield on their backs for melee combat!

These soldiers all wore masks with cross-vented helmets, and on top of the helmets was a brightly colored feather, mostly red, but the leader was a golden feather, apparently using the color of the feather to distinguish the difference between the top and the bottom.

Such a well-equipped, well-hierarched, and commanding and descending army is obviously extremely strong in combat effectiveness!

Tang Jie looked at these soldiers, on the one hand, he secretly compared them with the magic legion and magic guard of Mozambique that he had seen, and on the other hand, he secretly thought: How will they compare with my "dark night"?

Thinking of this, Tang Jie couldn't help but think far away, he suddenly thought of Alcatraz Island, which was thousands of miles away, thought of Nia, and remembered the Night Force that he had created and cultivated.

On that isolated island in the sea, there are all his efforts in this world, and there are people he cares about in the world.

He is desperate to rescue Angel, and ignores the future and fate of Nia and others, if he dies, everything on Alcatraz Island will disappear, and what awaits Nia and them will be under the nest, and there will be no end to the egg!

Is it worth it to do it yourself?

This thought suddenly came to Tang Jie's mind, he had never had such a thought in his mind before when it was time for an event.

This is because of the unprecedented powerful coercion brought to Tang Jie by the strict guards under the Clark Tower in front of him, no matter how confident and arrogant Tang Jie is, he knows that as long as he steps into it, he will die for a lifetime!

Once his deeds are exposed, then what awaits him must be death!

Is it worth taking such a risk for the sake of this woman?

Tang Jie didn't understand the meaning of the phrase "you need to be bold when things come to an end", but the soldiers around him were murderous, and the majestic city walls were like a tall giant staring at him coldly, and the pressure brought to him almost made him breathless.

Although he fought all the way, he was not a near death once, but he was not an immortal after all, after all, he was still a person, not a god.

As human beings, there are all kinds of negative factors such as nervousness, fear, oppression, and hesitation.

The reason why people are divided into mortals and heroes is that in this case, mortals are often conquered by this negative factor, and heroes are often able to overcome this negative factor!

This hesitant thought just appeared in Tang Jie's mind, and Tang Jie immediately woke up.

He realized a terrible and serious problem.

Why did I suddenly start thinking about things when things came to an end?

Is it because he has a family business and is starting to look ahead? Is it because he is no longer only burdened with the fate of himself, but also the fate of thousands of people, which makes him a little constrained?

Or is it because I can't really recognize my feelings for Angel?

But no matter what, Tang Jie knew that this was an extremely dangerous signal!

Tang Jie knows better than anyone why he has always relied on his tenacious spirit and fearless fighting spirit to achieve a big turnaround in adversity one after another in desperate situations again and again!

That's because, when he used to practice martial arts and boxing, his master once said to him: A martial artist not only practices the limbs and body, but also a person's spirit and spirit, and practices a person's courage!

A person with strong martial arts, how can there be a person who is obscene and has dark eyes?

Practitioners, first practice the heart, the heart is strong, the will is strong, the spirit is strong, the spirit is strong, the spirit is full, the heart is full, the blood is boiling, the strength is not stopped, there is a fearless and indomitable spirit!

To put it simply, only a person with a strong will can use all the strength of his body in one place and fight all his strength with indomitable strength!

If this person hesitates in his heart, then his will will be shaken, as soon as his will is shaken, his spirit will be weak, and his momentum will be weak, as soon as these things are weak, he will not want to exert all his strength, not to mention the super level of fearless play, in this case, this person is timid and cowardly, how can he be undefeated?

The fundamental reason why Tang Jie has won many victories and lost few all the way, and his record is almost undefeated, is that his will is extremely firm, no matter what he does, he never hesitates, as long as he decides, he will do it without reservation, and fight without reservation!

No matter how terrifying the enemy in front of him was, no matter how terrifying the desperate situation he was facing, Tang Jie didn't think about any problems in the slightest, because he knew that as long as he thought about it, then he would be finished!

At some point, as long as you think about something, you will fall into a quagmire, and all the essence and energy in your body will be consumed by these problems.

The words of old success and seeking the country, planning and then acting, first death and then acting, etc., sometimes say that a person is thoughtful to do something, but in the same way, it can also mean that a person is depressed, has too many worries about doing things, and looks forward to the future.

Such behavior and habits are undoubtedly a fine quality for a politician and businessman, and this quality will help them defeat one strong enemy after another.

But in the same way, such behaviors and habits, for a martial artist, this is definitely enough to kill them!

When Tang Jie didn't come to Garcia, although he once played the image of a politician in Mozambique, it was only when he came to the center of the empire that Tang Jie knew that his true identity was a warrior and a pirate!

As a martial artist, you should have an unswerving heart, even if there is an abyss in front of you, a sea of swords and fire, as long as you firmly believe that you can live, once you make up your mind, then you must resolutely jump down!

Politicians rely on logical reasoning, observation and thinking, and as warriors, the so-called logical reasoning, the so-called intrigue is not important to them, and the most important thing is that they still maintain an unwavering heart for their own survival?

Thinking of this, the gaze in Tang Jie's eyes suddenly lit up like lightning, and the hesitant thoughts that suddenly flashed just now were immediately driven away by him, in this short moment, he made up his mind, even if there was a tiger's den in front of him, even if there was a trap in front of him, he would break through!

Because, the artist is bold, and he firmly believes that he will survive!

However, Tang Jie had just driven away the most hesitant in his heart and the sharp gaze that unconsciously revealed in his eyes was noticed by Officer Jin Ling.

Being an officer here is naturally not a weak person, and he naturally has a subconscious reaction to such a sharp gaze, so Tang Jie's eyes flashed, and he immediately raised his head violently, and a sharp gaze pierced Tang Jie through the cross breath hole!

"You, lift your hat and come forward!" Officer Jin Ling pulled Radeno with a smile on his face beside him, and immediately shouted at Tang Jie.

Tang Jie's heart tightened, and the hand hidden in the robe slowly touched a short knife hidden in his waist, his eyes drooped, covering his murderous gaze, and the muscles all over his body were tense, and they would explode like a bomb at any time.

Although Tang Jie's body did not move at all from the outside, the sense of oppression revealed by his figure stagnating in the darkness made Officer Jin Ling immediately feel a terrible danger.

"Surround him!" Officer Jin Ling's cold hair stood on end, he had a feeling of facing a terrifying beast, and suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist and shouted loudly.

......The two rows of soldiers on the suspension bridge immediately took neat steps and surrounded Tang Jie, and the sharp spears in their hands pointed down with a bang, surrounding Tang Jie into a hedgehog.

"Oops...... Your Excellency York, he really is Bishop Marshall!" said Radno, whose face was full of horror, and sweat was dripping from his face, but he still forced a smile and said loudly in front of the York officer.

"Is he Bishop Marshall?" York's eyes seemed to be hiding a knife, scraping back and forth on Tang Jie's body, "Then let him lift his cloak and let me see his appearance!"

"This ......" Radno sweated profusely, and his body trembled slightly.

Tang Jie had already clenched the short knife in his hand, ready to burst out and kill at any time and break into the palace.

York keenly found that Tang Jie's body began to flow with a strong murderous aura, he became more and more firm in his suspicions, he smiled coldly, his body stepped back, with a wave of his hand, a word popped out of his teeth: "Kill!"

Tang Jie's heart tightened!

Seeing that a bloody battle was about to break out, suddenly a voice came from the city wall.

"What's going on down there?" asked an officer, standing on the rampart, with a torch in hand.

As soon as York raised his hand, he stopped the murderous attack of the soldiers beside him, he trotted under the city wall, beat his chest with his hand, gave a salute, and said loudly: "Report to Your Excellency, Your Excellency Ladno, the entourage of Princess Angel outside the city, has brought a Marshall Bishop of the Illuminati Cult to ask to enter the palace to meet Her Royal Highness. ”

When the officer heard this, he immediately shouted: "Then don't you hurry up and let you go? Your Royal Highness the princess also dare to stop the people, don't you want to live?"

York exclaimed, "But ......"

The officer interrupted him and shouted, "It's nothing, let me go immediately!"

“...... Yes!" York bit his cheek, turned his head and stared at Tang Jie viciously, then lowered his voice angrily, and said, "Don't do any tricks in it, otherwise, I'll squeeze out all your egg yolks!"

Tang Jie's heart was relieved at this time, the hand holding the handle of the short knife slowly loosened, and there was a fine sweat in his palm, as if he hadn't heard the words of the York officer, he still lowered his head, and slowly passed by the York officer and the guards beside him who were staring at him with unkind eyes.

Radno on the side wiped the sweat from his forehead like an amnesty, and followed Tang Jie closely.

Tang Jie's footsteps slowly but firmly walked towards the Clark Tower step by step on the suspension bridge, and the huge round arch hole in the inner city wall was like a terrible demon's bloody mouth in the dark night, slowly swallowing Tang Jie's figure......
