Chapter 469: Entering the Imperial City
Bang!
At this moment, two loud noises were heard in the sky, and the sky, which was still somewhat bright, instantly darkened.
As soon as everyone looked up, they saw a pair of wings covering the sky, and a pair of scarlet eyes were staring at the Candle Dragons and rebel prisoners of war on the ground.
"See Your Majesty!" all the candle dragon soldiers immediately bowed their heads and fell to the ground, those rebel prisoners of war naturally did not kneel, but they also trembled under the pressure of the giant candle dragon above their heads, and some of them were unsteady on their feet.
"A lowly existence, dare to resist the emperor!" the giant candle dragon above his head roared in the sky, spitting out a mouthful of scorching flames towards those rebels. "You will suffer forever from the flames!"
The kneeling Candle Dragon Army and the rebel prisoners of war were all rolling on the ground with their heads in their hands, but there was not a trace of flame in sight on their bodies.
The residents living on both sides of the street looked horrified when they saw this, and they closed their windows in a neat manner and stopped looking out.
"Silver hair, the emperor will definitely tie you up outside the city and burn your soul little by little with Shenyan, so that everyone can see your appearance and hear your screams!"
The screams of the Candle Dragon Army and the rebel prisoners of war did not stop, and no one dared to step forward to support them, and when the sky turned white, these people no longer had the strength to shout, and they could only keep making slight convulsions.
When the first rays of sunlight in the morning came out of the horizon, Zhang Mo and the holy woman came to the gate of the imperial city.
When the defenders at the gate of the city saw Zhang Mo and the Holy Maiden, they immediately surrounded them, they all had dark circles under their eyes, their eyes were bloodshot, and after listening to the screams of the night, no one would have any spirit.
"We are the people of the temple, and this is our guide. Zhang Mo handed over two copies of jade slips and said.
As soon as the defenders heard that Zhang Mo was from the temple, they immediately changed their previous lazy attitude, cautiously stepped forward to take the jade slip, and after carefully verifying it, handed the jade slip back to Zhang Mo and said, "It turned out to be two knights, please enter the city." ”
Zhang Mo nodded at the defenders, took back the road guide, and swaggered into the city with the saint.
After Zhang Mo walked away, the defenders who had verified Lu Yin before immediately turned their faces and said to their colleagues on the side: "I'm going to keep an eye on them, and the city gate will be handed over to you first." ”
"Be careful, I see that two knights from the Templars are not easy to deal with. The defender said with some concern.
"Hey, no matter how difficult they are, can they be stronger than our Emperor Majesty?" said the defender of the verification road.
"You don't want to die, forget what happened to those unlucky people last night?" the defenders snapped, "Go and keep an eye on those two Templars." ”
"Well, when is this day going to be the end? The defender who verified Lu Yin muttered and began to rush in the direction where Zhang Mo and the others had left, and at the same time, he had already changed the defender's costume and put on a set of ordinary demon man's coarse linen clothes.
Zhang Mo was slashed, and the range that his divine sense could cover was reduced, so he couldn't find that there was a 'tail' hanging behind him, but the saint had already discovered that someone was following behind him.
"We were stalked. The saint whispered to Zhang Modao. "It's the previous defenders, and it seems that the royal family is already hostile to the Temple. ”
"Something is wrong, something is wrong. Zhang Mo sent a voice to the holy maiden: "Now should be the busiest time in the imperial city, but now there are few people on the street. ”
"Hey, I said we were being followed, what were you talking about?" the saint glared at Zhang Mo with some annoyance.
"Let him follow, if you move, he will startle the snake." Zhang Mo seemed to be wandering around the street very casually, but in fact he was observing the traces of the ground and the surrounding residents, because the surrounding residents all opened their windows to peep at him.
"Then let him follow?" said the saint with some displeasure.
"Why do you see so many people lying in front of you?" Zhang Mo immediately quickened his pace when he saw the Candle Dragon Army and the rebel prisoners of war lying on the ground unable to move. "Ignore the person who is following us for now, as long as we don't expose it, the person behind him won't immediately attack us. ”
"Then how do you know if we have been exposed?" Although the holy woman was a little unhappy, she still followed Zhang Mo to speed up her pace.
"It's very simple, when we want to act, we get rid of the 'tail' behind us. Zhang Mo responded as he ran. In this way, the people behind him will not be able to help but make a move. ”
Everyone screamed all night, and now they no longer had the strength to shout, but everyone's soul was burned by Shenyan, and the pain made their facial expressions distorted, and their bodies were already soaked with sweat, and their clothes were covered with a layer of snow-white salt flowers.
Zhang Mo swept it with his divine sense, and immediately discovered the clue, and the saint who followed immediately followed also immediately discovered the problem.
"Damn, who is so cruel?" the holy woman immediately stepped forward to save the people.
Zhang Mo stretched out his hand to block her way, and asked in a slightly calm voice, "Do you want to expose yourself now?"
"But are we just watching these people suffer like this?" said the holy woman angrily at Zhang Mo.
"I don't think it's time yet. Zhang Mo has no intention of retreating.
"You're cold-blooded!" said the saint mocked. "Because these people are not your kind, you should turn a blind eye!"
"If you think so, then I will no longer hinder you. Zhang Mo frowned and turned to leave.
The holy woman looked at Zhang Mo's departing back, hesitated in place for a while, and finally stomped away, and did not help the poor people lying on the ground.
It is definitely not a wise choice to rescue people and expose yourself as soon as you enter the city.
Zhang Mo didn't want to be exposed too early, if Sai Nan insisted on doing it, he wouldn't stop it, he would respect other people's choices, but he wouldn't necessarily agree.
"Hey, that...... I was wrong just now, I shouldn't have said that kind of thing. The saint caught up with Zhang Mo and apologized.
"His Majesty the Imperial Family should have changed hands now, right?" Zhang Mo frowned.
"I'm apologizing to you, can you respect me?" When the saint heard Zhang Mo's words, she immediately jumped to her feet, and immediately her temper came up again. "Do I have to whisper to you again?"
"Uh...... You still remember what happened just now, but I forgot it. Zhang Mo said with some astonishment. "I think you're going to overlook some details if you put your mind down on business. ”
"Hmph!" said the holy woman with a muffled grunt. "I just care about the details, because I'm a woman!"
"Okay, let's find a place to stay. Hearing the words of the saint girl, Zhang Mo looked defeated, which made the saint save some face.
