Chapter 1698 Witnessing

Fifteen minutes passed quickly, and the five people also met next to the fountain in the middle of the square, and of course they immediately reported the situation they had investigated.

"I found a lot of shops here, including pharmacies, weapon shops, etc., but I went in and tried, and those shopkeepers were basically fools. Not only did they answer questions and compare the standard, the most important thing was that in all the shops I I've tried everything, but I can't buy anything." Summoning the Jade Emperor said.

"Yeah, I've tried this too." The fire head next to him said, "Under normal circumstances, you can open the shop column by directly selecting the shopkeeper, but the shops here don't work, and I tried to directly give the shopkeeper gold coins and the like. , the owner ignored me."

"All I can find is that the whole city is very stupid. I haven't found a smart one so far, whether it's passers-by, soldiers, or store owners. Anyway, asking them questions can only rely on The form of the keyword, if you can’t say the keyword, the other party will just repeat the same words, or just say hello to you as a response.” Peanut said, “And I found a place like a teleportation point over there. But I don’t know how to use it, I have studied it for a long time and I don’t know how to activate it, and then there is nothing around, so I don’t know if it can be used.”

"The discovery on my side is even more strange, because I feel that I have received a mission." Malinka said here, "I found someone, and the other party entrusted me to find another person, told me his name, and then said Reward, but I don’t know why I haven’t received this quest now, and it’s not in the quest bar, I talked to him again, and the message of that quest is still there, as if I didn’t accept it at all before.”

"No matter how you look at this city, these are too." Summoning the Jade Emperor said, "Are you saying that these are not true? Because apart from answering questions, these can't interact with us at all, and the store page can't be opened. Yes, are these plots of wild monsters or something like that?"

"It's... possible." Huotou nodded. "By the way, didn't the god king give us a BUFF of spiritual vision before? Didn't it just let us find the mission target we were looking for in these?"

Indeed, the BUFF of the previous Spirit Vision said "Seeing through the enemy's camouflage allows you to easily find the enemy's position", which means that the enemy should have a camouflage, so Huotou guessed so. However, Li Huailin disagreed: "This is a BUFF and not a skill. It should have been activated, but we haven't seen any camouflage of these after looking for a long time."

"This is really..." Several people nodded, but the fire head here immediately said, "Are you looking for something special, and then for example, isn't this the imperial city? This emperor may be the head of these monsters, and then we To expose him, and then the whole city will turn into monsters, and then we will kill him, or something like that?"

"The plot is well written..." Li Huailin said, "But why do I think it's not that simple."

"I think what you said makes sense. Should we go and see this emperor? According to the information so far, I guess. Adding the difficulty of SS-level missions, I think it is very necessary." Summoning the Jade Emperor also nodded and said.

"Those go to the palace to have a look first." Li Huailin nodded after thinking about it. Although he didn't agree with the plot that Huotou said, there is no other information now. The emperor might be able to provide some news. So let’s go and have a look first.

The five people continued to walk towards the inner city, and walked along the road of the square here, and soon they saw the entrance of the inner city gate, but of course there was a team of guards watching the inner city gate here. with.

"Stop the traveler,

Inside is the inner city. You cannot enter unless there is a warrant. "The soldiers here still said to several people with a blank face.

"Pass order?" Li Huailin has always entered and exited the inner and outer cities at will, and he has never encountered a situation where he asked for a pass order, but think about it. This is not the Nasser Empire, and they don't recognize you, the Duke, as the emperor of the mainland, so of course they won't let you into the palace.

"What should I do?" Summoning the Jade Emperor asked in a low voice, listening to her subtext seemed to be asking if she wanted to kill her directly.

Li Huailin was also thinking about it, but at this time, Peanut suddenly pointed to a notice board next to him, and then said to the guard, "Hello. We are the team here to take on this mission."

Li Huailin was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head to see that there was indeed a piece of paper on the notice board with a big seal on it, as if it was some kind of mission sent by the emperor. Li Huailin secretly gave Peanut a thumbs up, this guy's reaction is really fast.

"Oh, so that's the case." The guard here seemed to understand suddenly, nodded, and said to several people, "In that case, come with me to see His Majesty."

There was nothing extra to say, the guards immediately started to walk forward, and a few soldiers followed behind, as if they were escorting the front and back, anyway, they took Li Huailin and the others to the direction of the palace. In the current situation, Li Huailin and the others had no choice but to keep up temporarily. After all, they should be able to see the emperor. As for the situation, we will talk about seeing the emperor.

Soon the five people came to the gate of the palace. The ones in front communicated with the guards at the gate of the palace, and then led Li Huailin and the others to continue walking, approaching the gate of the palace. The imperial palace here is still a Western-style imperial palace. The area is not very large to be honest. Compared with the imperial palace in the main human city, it is far worse, and the architectural style is completely different.

Now that they have seen better ones, the few people didn't pay much attention to this imperial palace, they lost interest after looking at it for a while, but they were seriously on guard against possible dangers and the like. Because if the previous guess is correct, the emperor will be, and then this place will naturally be the lair of monsters, so we must be careful.

"Wait, look over there." Just as she was walking, Malinka suddenly stopped and pointed in one direction.

Of course, everyone immediately looked in the direction Malinka said, but everyone was shocked. What appeared before them was a very strange monster. This is a humanoid monster with a black body and looks a bit like an alien without a tail, with two sharp horns on its head. When Li Huailin saw this thing, it was actually still holding a bundle of books and walking towards them.

Seeing Li Huailin and the others, the black monster here was also obviously stunned for a while, and then suddenly yelled "Wow!", then put down the scroll and ran out towards the rear.

"Fuck, this is the monster we're looking for." The summoning Jade Emperor said immediately, and after speaking, he wanted to chase the opponent in the direction where he was fleeing.

"Wait, don't wander around, this is the imperial palace." Unexpectedly, the summoning Jade Emperor just wanted to leave the team, and the guard here immediately stepped forward and said, of course, there was still no fluctuation in tone, and he could not hear any anger.

"What should I do?" Summoning the Jade Emperor, he immediately looked towards Li Huailin.

"Chase first, then talk!" Li Huailin said immediately, although it was a bit strange, but after all, the monster in front of him was the target they were looking for, of course they chased it first, as for the guards, it was a big deal to do together.

The five people immediately chased in the direction where the monster was fleeing, and just a few steps away, a guard's voice came from behind: "Come on, catch them!"

Li Huailin saw a large group of guards rushing towards them behind him, and the names on their heads instantly turned red.

"Damn it, there are so many." Huotou couldn't help shouting.

"Chasing the monsters first," Li Huailin said immediately.

Regardless of the large number of guards coming up from behind, the five continued to chase the monster in front, but now the monster had run out of their field of vision, and after turning a few turns, they couldn't find anyone.

"See where it goes?"

"It should have entered here." Malinka pointed to a nearby building and said, this should be someone's side hall in the palace. It was built later.

They still believed in Malinka's eyesight, and entered the building immediately. As a result, everyone was taken aback just after entering the door, because it looked... like a mage's research institute, because the surrounding ground was filled with all kinds of There are also a lot of unknown equipment on the table next to the books, and various materials such as crystals and metals can be seen in the room.

Of course, the most attractive thing is that the walls in this room are full of messy words, and the whole wall is covered with paintings everywhere. Li Huailin took a look and found that these words have no purpose at all. On the contrary, because it was too messy, I didn't know what it was written at all. Some words should be connected together, but Li Huailin didn't have time to read this at this time.

"Not here." Of course they came to find the monster, but they looked around the room, and there was no one at all.

"I saw that he should have come here." Malinka said with certainty.

"Hmm..." Summoning the Jade Emperor to look at the room again, "This room is really a bit strange, what are the messy characters on the wall?"

"Ah?" Hearing this sentence, Li Huailin was stunned for a moment, then grabbed the hand of the summoning Jade Emperor and asked, "Wait, what are you talking about? Garbled characters?" (To be continued.)
