Chapter 500: Chaos
The door was pushed open, and Austin walked in with a very ugly face.
"What happened?"
Emperor Branoch Hillis asked with more and more unfriendly eyes.
"Lord Ximi was assassinated at home!"
Hearing this, Emperor Branoch Hillis was like a wounded lion, raising his head and roaring.
"Asshole!!"
The concubines around and the soldiers outside the door were frightened and all knelt down! They could feel the extreme anger from the roar of Emperor Branoch Hillis.
Austin stood there, without saying a word. He had long expected that Emperor Branoch Hillis would be furious.
You know, Lord Ximi is Emperor Branoch Hillis' uncle and one of the most trusted people of the Emperor.
He was responsible for many important matters in the joint laboratory, and he died suddenly. The impact on the empire is no less than the death of General Armster Longqui. And most importantly, the ban on the City of the Covenant has just been temporarily lifted, and this incident happened immediately. It is clearly a slap in the face of His Majesty Branoch Siris. This is a provocation! And it is a deliberate provocation!
Emperor Branoch Siris, with red eyes and heavy breathing, turned his head and looked at Austin.
"Who did it? Where is the murderer? Don't tell me he is dead"
"Your Majesty is worse than dead. The murderer has not been found, not even a shadow."
Austin said with a tense face.
"What a joke! What a joke! My Xilis Empire has become a joke, Austin, what do you think we should do?"
Branoch Siris got off the bed, walked in front of Austin, and asked with his face twitching.
"Your Majesty, although the people in the Prince's Palace did not see what the murderer looked like, and did not catch the murderer. But I can be very sure that this was definitely done by the rebels, and it was no one else, but the one who killed General Armster Langque. No one else has this ability except him. It can only be said that there is an extraordinary guy in the rebel army."
Auston replied with certainty.
Hearing Austin's words, Emperor Branoch Hillis laughed angrily.
"Good! Good! Those bastards again! Since they want to die so much, I will fulfill their wish. Do you really think I can't find them! Pass my order, order the Blood Judgment Corps to block all roads, dispatch all personnel, and conduct a carpet search of all areas. At all costs, dig three feet deep to find those stupid guys for me!"
"Yes!"
Auston replied in a low voice. He also agreed with His Majesty Branoch Hillis's decision. Although the cost is very high, it must be done, otherwise that guy will become a time bomb and explode from time to time! Give them a surprise.
Not long after, the entire Covenant City sounded a shrill whistle!
Then countless imperial soldiers emerged from different areas of the city and began to search like crazy, searching door to door!
No one can be exempted.
Su Bai, who was about to return to Fenghuaxuan, stopped and looked at the sudden commotion and the countless imperial soldiers who appeared out of thin air, and was also a little shocked.
These guys reacted too quickly, and the degree of reaction was a little too intense.
Su Bai scratched his head a little uncomfortably. He always had a bad feeling. Did he poke a hornet's nest?
In fact, Su Bai not only poked a hornet's nest, but directly poked the tiger's ass.
Forget it, poked it, Su Bai didn't regret it at all.
However, Su Bai still quickened his pace and rushed to Fenghuaxuan, wanting to notify Wang Buwei first.
As for the blockade along the way, it had no effect on him at all. The stealth ability of this natural disaster V nuclear gold armor is really a BUG.
Not long after, Su Bai returned to Fenghuaxuan, but when he saw the soldiers inside and outside, Su Bai couldn't help but frowned. It seemed that he came back too late. This action was too fast. Of course, he did not risk going in, but stayed outside to wait and see. If something really happened, he would be the first to respond.
In the secret room of Fenghuaxuan, Wang Buwei and others were sitting and discussing something. Suddenly, Wang Buwei raised his hand and signaled Long Qi and Raymond to be quiet.
Wang Buwei walked to the edge of the wall, listened for a while, and said with a slight change of expression.
"I don't know what happened outside. I heard a loud commotion."
"Could it be a fight after drinking too much?"
Raymond replied.
"Impossible, the commotion is continuous, not local. Moreover, the sealing and sound insulation effects of this secret room are very good. If it is not a big movement, it is unlikely to be detected here."
Wang Buwei replied.
Long Qi frowned and said, "It shouldn't be. Logically, this place is indeed safer. Could it be that the minions of the empire have found this place?"
"Let's wait and see. If there is any problem, Duo Meng will notify us. Before that, stay calm and don't panic. This place should be safe. After all, this is not our base, so it shouldn't be discovered." Wang Buwei analyzed calmly.
"Okay."
Long Qi and Raymond nodded at the same time, and they also felt that it made sense.
In Fenghuaxuan, countless imperial soldiers scattered and rushed into each room rudely, causing chaos.
The security guards of Fenghuaxuan did not dare to stop them, and all squatted with their heads in their hands.
The young women in the hall all squatted in panic.
The drunk nobles and officials who were having fun were very angry.
They scolded the soldiers who rushed in.
"Who allowed you to barge in? There are no rules at all."
As a result, the one-eyed general who led the group slapped the noble in the face.
The noble was stunned by the slap, covering his red and swollen face, and his head came to his senses, looking at the soldiers who rushed in.
"You, you"
"Your Majesty has ordered that the whole city search for rebels, and anyone who disobeys or interferes, no matter who it is, will be executed on the spot! Do you want to try it?"
The general in charge asked solemnly.
The noble was so scared that he sat on the ground, and his pants were wet!
What is more important than your own head?
"Search for me, don't let go of any corner, and take down all suspicious people!"
The leading general gave the order with iron blood.
"Yes!"
After receiving the order, the soldiers behind him rushed into the private room in Fenghuaxuan frantically, dragged the people out directly, and then started to check with various instruments, which can be said to be really digging three feet into the ground.
At this time, in the corner far away, Domon glanced at it, turned around and left directly.
Not long after, Domon opened the door of the secret room and walked in with Feiji.
"What happened?"
Wang Buwei knew something was wrong when he saw Domon bringing Feiji in, but he asked calmly.
"I don't know what happened, just now, the whole Covenant City was in chaos, and there were searchers everywhere. Fenghuaxuan, which has always been exempted, was also within the forced search range this time. I just took a look, and the other party was serious, searching without blind spots, and carrying special equipment."
Domon explained.
"Then we retreat?"
Raymond asked subconsciously.
Duo Meng shook his head and said, "All the exits are blocked. If you dare to show up, you will definitely be discovered. You won't be able to escape."
"What should we do now?"
Long Qi asked.
"You hide here first. Now we can only take a gamble that the other party can't find this place."
Duo Meng hesitated for a few seconds and said.
"We understand."
Wang Buwei replied.
"That's it for now. If there is a turnaround, I will notify you as soon as possible."
After Duo Meng finished speaking, he retreated.
