Chapter 455 The Roar Of Artillery Fire! The Protective Shield Was Shattered Instantly!
Sakura flower country.
Kyushu Island.
In the emperor's palace.
A middle-aged man with gray hair and beard, wearing a straw coat and a bamboo hat, sitting upright on a futon, suddenly opened his eyes.
His eyes were resolute and steady, emitting rays of terrifying light like a torch. His momentum was strong but not impetuous, like a cheetah that had entered a predatory state and was staring closely at the prey in front of him.
"Xiao Si!"
The middle-aged man spoke.
At his call, a young man walked next to him:
"Uncle Jiu Bai! What's wrong?"
The middle-aged man whom he called Uncle Jiubai sighed:
"I've been feeling a little uneasy lately, as if something big is about to happen, but I don't know what it is..."
"This kind of disturbing panic really makes me collapse."
"Although I have felt this way since the moment the red moon landed in the sky..."
"But today, it is particularly outstanding."
"Especially just now, my heart almost jumped out of my throat..."
"Is it possible that something big is really going to happen?"
Xiao Si didn’t look panicked at all, but instead burst out laughing:
"Hey, Uncle Jiubai, I thought it was something..."
"Thankfully you are still the head guard of the palace, why are you so superstitious?"
"The phenomenon of the red moon rising into the sky is most likely caused by those priest organizations! They are the only ones in the entire Kyushu Island who have this kind of strength..."
"I guess His Majesty must be carrying out some kind of sacrificial activity, so he's going to such great lengths."
"But then again, these things have nothing to do with us at all!"
"What we are responsible for is to protect and serve well when His Majesty comes..."
"When Your Majesty is not here, we should practice spiritual practice and read books. Nothing in the outside world has anything to do with us."
"Wouldn't it be nice to live a pure life?"
People who came to the emperor's palace could be said to have become hermits, and they all lost their names.
Only this code number, counting from one to the bottom, is the way they use it.
The order is naturally based on first come, first served and counting backwards. When there is a vacancy in the front, it will be filled by the newcomer.
The reason why this little fourth was able to get the code name 4 was because he took the place of an old senior who passed away naturally not long after he arrived.
Jiu Bai sighed:
"Having said that, once people get older, they can't help but think too much..."
"As His Majesty's last barrier, we should always remain vigilant."
"Let's do it, Xiaosi, you take your brothers and search the ten miles around the palace to see if you can find anything unusual..."
"If I keep waiting like this without doing anything, I'm afraid I will really go crazy."
When Xiao Si heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he started dancing excitedly:
"Uncle Jiu Bai, are you serious about this?"
No wonder he was so excited.
After all, the management of the emperor's palace was extremely strict.
Without the permission of Jiu Bai, the head guard, no one can leave the palace even half a step.
The recreational activities they usually have as young people are naturally extremely limited.
Now that he finally had a chance to go out, how could he not be happy?
Although the emperor's palace is located in the deep mountains and old forests, the surrounding area of ten miles is also deserted.
But no matter what, at least I can breathe fresh air and take a walk to relax, right?
Seeing Xiao Si's excited look, Jiu Bai gave him a serious look:
"But I still have to explain some things clearly in advance..."
"It's said that if it's a radius of ten miles, it must not exceed half a meter!"
"Even if you can get key evidence more than half a meter away, you must never step outside!"
"And you have to come back within ten hours. You can't delay even a second..."
"During this period, search everything you can see as much as possible, do you understand?"
When Xiao Si saw Jiu Bai's serious face, he quickly corrected his expression:
"yes!"
"Don't worry, Uncle Jiu Bai. We young people have been practicing in the palace for nearly a year. We must be familiar with the rules and so on."
"You don't need to explain these things, we will do it without a doubt!"
Jiu Bai nodded seriously:
"Then the time will start from now on. Go back quickly..."
"Whether you can find something in this search depends on your eyes!"
When Xiao Si heard this, he quickly said goodbye to Jiu Bai, and then ran out of the door happily.
Now he heard the news suddenly, without even having time to tell his friends.
Jiu Bai has already said that the time will start from now on, so the ten-hour time limit has naturally begun to pass.
If he didn't speed up quickly and wasted time finding someone to pass the message to, wouldn't it mean that they would have less time to relax?
That is of course unacceptable under any circumstances.
After watching Xiao Si leave, Jiu Bai still felt uneasy one after another, and this time the feeling was even stronger than before.
This kind of torture was driving him crazy and became more and more intense.
Although Jiu Bai has tried his best not to think about this matter and tried his best to calm down and meditate, it still doesn't help.
Just like that, his head was so stimulated that he was dizzy and he gradually gave up on himself and was ready to sit here and wait for news from Xiaosi and the others.
But unexpectedly, almost ten minutes after Xiao Si ran out, an earth-shattering roar suddenly sounded on Jiu Bai's head.
To be precise, it should be in mid-air above his head...
This sudden tremor almost staggered Jiu Bai, causing him to quickly walk out of the door in panic and look up at the sky.
Then, he saw a sight he would never forget.
Countless huge mushroom clouds immediately detonated on the protective shield of the Emperor's Palace. Along with repeated silvery transparent debris and woven threads, the first layer of defense of the Emperor's Palace was instantly broken.
As a result, more and stronger artillery fire poured down.
Along with them were those silver substances that looked extremely poisonous.
And because of the energy spurt generated by the shattering of the protective shield and the attacks and bombardments from the outside, the entire area around the emperor's palace was flooded by endless artillery fire and explosions.
"No!!!!!"
After letting out a heart-rending roar, Jiu Bai jumped into the air with a single stride.
At this moment, there was only one thought left in his mind.
That is, what happened to the young people represented by Xiaosi who he just sent out...
