Chapter 602: An Explosion that Shakes the Earth! Five Thousand
With about five minutes of buffer time, what can you do in the huge imperial city?
Tang En made a firm choice. He rushed out of the hall and headed west, heading straight for the West City. At this time, the chasing forces had not yet reacted, and the only ones who could follow behind were a few strong men from the Northern Wilderness who had caught up from the beginning.
But it's a pity that because I just attended a banquet with my young master, there is no air-level expert who can fly in the air. As a result, although they saw Tang En's fleeing figure at the first moment, they ended up chasing him further and further away. However, in just a short moment, all that was left in sight was the mist of night.
…
In the evening, the main road leading to West City. There is a lot of traffic and pedestrians, everything is as usual.
Suddenly, bang, the ground suddenly exploded in the middle of the road. There was a pothole that looked like footprints, but no one passed by at this time. Immediately, a carriage just ran here,
Neigh... Before the coachman could react, he saw the horse under his control instantly raised its hooves and stood upright, hissing loudly. Immediately afterwards, the rolling wheels behind them rushed forward with inertia, crashing into the upright horses. The carriage and horses flew out in an instant, and hit the pedestrians and carriages on the road next to them...
Screams, roars, screams... In just a short moment, several carriages that were unable to recover collided one after another, and the orderly road traffic was paralyzed in an instant, and chaos spread.
No one knows what caused this tragic car accident because the instigator had already crossed to another block. No one will know that this accident is just a small prelude to the turmoil in the imperial city tonight...[
There was no turning back, no use of any horses or other means of transportation, and no one even followed the original path. In this straight sprint. Tang En only believed in his own speed!
Rush, rush, rush...
Just a few minutes. But Tang En, who had pushed his speed to the limit of his body, had begun to pant slightly. However, his gaze remained unwavering, indifferent and silent, he passed by the construction pedestrians who were quickly retreating around him, and accurately stepped on the next explosive point of bending his legs. Bang... gravel splashed, and there was another footprint and pothole, and his movement speed increased again. A few minutes, and it surged out in an instant.
at this time. In the sky behind, bang...an orange-red firework suddenly exploded in the night, with a dazzling brilliance that could be seen for miles.
Tang En glanced sideways, narrowed his narrow eyes, then looked away, and rushed into the Xicheng District without looking back.
At the same time, all the people in the Imperial City looked up at the orange-red fireworks that looked so similar to before, and were stunned. Isn't this... the Imperial City alarm that went off just a month ago? Could it be. Someone is rebelling again?
For the same fireworks, ordinary people only see simple warnings. Random speculation. But in the eyes of some imperial city defense forces, the meaning of these fireworks is extremely clear. Soon, large numbers of soldiers rushed towards Xicheng District.
At this time, on a luxury carriage that had just driven to Xicheng District, a naked hand opened the curtain. The people in the car looked up at the sky, and the orange fireworks were reflected on the smooth lenses, and they were stunned.
"Is this the first-level alarm signal from the Mad Eagle Tribe? Hey, it's such a big fuss. It seems they are really going to fight this time." Tago, who was in the same car, was wrapping his right hand in a cloth and shaking his head. sighed.
The Great Wilderness City has a very special status among the Northern Wilderness tribes, so the garrison here is not like the imperial palace and castle, which are all members of the Sirius royal family, but instead all large tribes send people to garrison together. The orange-red signal in front of him was suspected to have been sent by the strong men of the Mad Eagle Tribe just now. The intention was naturally to summon the strength of the tribe to encircle and suppress the Bran man.
Hearing this, Lansha pursed her lips and said nothing. Qiu Shui's eyes moved downwards, looking steadily toward the west. Her smooth, jade-like face was a little confused, but also a little enlightened.
You went into the library to look up information, you kissed off the jade pendant by force, you were moved by my surveillance arrangements... It turns out that you were ready to run away... But why? You can have everything by staying in Beihuang, isn't that enough...
Tago glanced at Lansha's expression and realized he was mistaken. He smiled bitterly and said: "Lambit was crushed into minced meat and can no longer die. We are in big trouble this time. I organized the banquet. I will try to protect Nabran." The person is your idea. Sigh..."
He sighed, then touched the wound cloth on his hand, and felt refreshed. He said thankfully, "Fortunately, fortunately, the Bran people attacked us in full view of the public. Based on this, there is still hope for this matter." ,only U.S……"
"no."[
"Well?"
"No..." Lan Sha turned around and glanced at Tago's injured right hand, shook his head, and just denied it softly without any specific explanation.
She knew Tang En's strength very well. How could a person who could kill even an air-level warrior attack two people of low strength but fail? What's more, he clearly had a better chance at that time, but he only took action after the fox girl screamed and everyone came to their senses...
Tiger naturally didn't know the inside story. After hearing this, he pondered for a while, thought about it, then shook his head and said: "No matter what, he will definitely not be able to escape this time. This is the Northern Wilderness Imperial City, and now the people of the Mad Eagle Tribe are His eyes are red again...Well, I hope he can die on the spot, otherwise it will probably be a big trouble again."
Lansha frowned slightly when he heard this, biting his lip, his eyes a little hazy.
In fact, Tago's statement is not wrong. If Tang En is surrounded and suppressed to death by the people of the Mad Eagle tribe, then everything will naturally be settled. The most that will be left is a few tribes wrangling each other, which will have some impact, but It won't be out of control. But if Tang En is captured alive, there will be many variables. Whether he takes the initiative to confess, or some people with ulterior motives interfere with it, he may be implicated in their tribe... Then, it will be a big trouble!
So in comparison, Tago naturally hopes that Twain will not involve them, die on the spot, and be done with it. Regarding these, Lansha naturally understands. But somehow, listening to Tago's hopeful words, it was obviously the best outcome, but she still felt a little unhappy...
Putting down the car curtain, Lansha pursed his lips and shook his head slightly: "You don't understand... He won't be caught so easily, and he won't die so easily." His tone was slow, but there was a kind of calmness in it. Great confidence!
Tiger was stunned when he heard this, and instantly thought of the rumors about the library a few days ago. He couldn't help but look at Lansha with a strange look on his face. That's when. It seemed to confirm Lansha's confidence. suddenly,
Boom...boom...boom...
Just like the rapid muffled thunder before a heavy rain, it exploded far and near, and as soon as it sounded, it continued to explode in an unprepared manner, without stopping at all.
It's not raining now, and the light snow is about to stop. Naturally, this can't be thunder. Ouch... The car curtain suddenly opened again, and Tago stuck his head out to look to the west. Suddenly, he opened his mouth, his eyes widened, and his soft face was full of shock and fear.
"Your mother..."
In the direction of the West City, streaks of fire shot up into the sky along with the muffled thunder, connecting with the dark night sky. Instead, it seemed like countless black dragons were entwining and swimming in the clouds. Suddenly, they all opened their mouths and spit out burning snakes, which made people tremble all over. It was terrifying. And spectacular!
Shouts and roars. "Quick, quick. Speed up..."
…
In West City, the first person to discover Tang En was not the strong man from the Mad Eagle Tribe, but a group of ordinary soldiers.
This is also normal. Those strong men were thrown out of the eight streets by Tang En's terrifying speed. However, the soldiers of the Mad Eagle Tribe stationed at the west city gate accidentally bumped into Tang En as soon as they entered.
This is not a lonely road, but now it is empty. Those people who had experienced previous rebellions had long since hid in their houses when they saw the fiery snakes rising into the sky and heard the shocking explosions that seemed to be right next to their ears. Of course, as a person from the Northern Wilderness, it was impossible to hide under the bed and tremble. They usually lay down on their stomachs with an iron rod in hand and watched the situation outside vigilantly.
So in this empty street, those soldiers suddenly saw Tang En, a man with a Bran face, and naturally identified their target instantly.
"Hu Ya Na (stop)!"
"You're fucking kidding me." Of course Tang En wouldn't listen. He paused and immediately changed direction and rushed into a nearby alleyway.
The roadway is about half a foot wide. There are traces of trampling on the thick snow in the middle of the road, but the snow layer under the corner next to it is intact. This is natural, after all, not many people will talk to each other until they walk around the corner.
Of course, it won't work if there are too many people. The group of soldiers chasing in was lined up with three people, just enough to fill the alleyway, and they all chased after them.
At this time, Tang En, who was running wildly in front, stopped suddenly, turned around and spread his hands: "Hey, don't blame me for not giving a warning, don't chase anymore."
Most of the ordinary soldiers did not understand Bran's language. When they saw Tang En suddenly stop, they were overjoyed. They roared in vague barbaric language and walked even faster.
"Don't you understand? Oh, that would be a tragedy..."
As soon as he finished speaking, boom! A ray of fire suddenly shot up from the alleyway. The pursuing soldiers didn't understand what happened at all. They felt their feet suddenly lightened and their bodies flew out... Under the impact of the explosion, one side of the alleyway wall collapsed like flour. He buried the soldiers behind him who were hurriedly stopping.
In just a short moment, a group of soldiers who felt confused were flying and buried, completely losing their combat effectiveness.
"Ha, so, illiteracy kills people!" With a chuckle, Tang En, who seemed to have expected it, lightly said a sarcastic remark, then turned around and whispered to himself, "Here... Well, it's almost there. We got that package, we have to hurry up!" After saying that, he turned around and continued running.
Needless to say, the explosion was caused by the black powder in the clay pot. Previously, Tang En spent a whole night burying all the clay pots and black powder in Xicheng District. And luckily for God's sake, the snow has not stopped, so it is even more convenient to bury it under the snow.
As for why it suddenly exploded on its own, it was because of the Northern Wilderness berries that Tang En discovered in previous experiments.
It is true that the explosion of these pea-sized berries is very weak and cannot hurt anyone at all. But it also depends on where they are placed. What if they are mounted on a clay pot? What if someone stepped on it and this slight explosion touched the sensitive black powder?
In other words, these clay pots of black powder are no longer pure black powder, but trigger-type landmines set up through various clever techniques!
As a result, the Beihuang soldiers who entered Xicheng District to conduct a large-scale search were undoubtedly determined and miserable!
…
Explosions were heard one after another, fiery snakes set fire to the sky from time to time, and thick smoke had already enveloped most of Xicheng.
None of the soldiers knew what was going on. They just followed the planned route and conducted a rug-like search of the city. However, without seeing any enemies, the team suddenly exploded, and then they watched helplessly as their companions were instantly transformed from themselves. Flying overhead. Stumps flying around. The casualties were heavy.
This is definitely not an accident. After just a few minutes of searching, several teams had already been recruited one after another. The attitude of the soldiers also changed from being disbelieving at first, to being dumbfounded and stunned, and finally going crazy...
Enemy, enemy... all the soldiers in the Northern Wilderness had red eyes and murderous intent. They needed to see the enemy, instead of not seeing even a hair like now, when most of their own team had suffered casualties.
It’s frustrating!
The people of the Northern Wilderness, who are physically strong and born with supernatural powers, are powerful men who can compete with three or four even on the Bran front. Have they ever fought such a ridiculous battle?
The strange fighting mode in front of them was undoubtedly beyond their scope of cognition. There was a sudden explosion. Was that an exploding crystal? Obviously it's impossible, not to mention where the Bran people got so many explosive crystals. Even if the explosive crystals are hidden underground, they shouldn't explode if a normal person steps on them.
The doubts continue, and so do the explosions. The consequence of going crazy is that the explosions become more intensive, and can be heard almost every few dozen seconds, like the evening bell of death. It sounds creepy.
At this time, the entire Xicheng District was completely in chaos.
The power of black powder is indeed limited. But it can’t handle the large number. The series of detonations caused the earth to turn upside down! Not only the casualties of soldiers, but also the fire snakes gradually began to climb up many buildings. From time to time, some people could be seen running out in panic, and behind them, there were often crumbling buildings...
The fire is burning the city! Thick smoke covers the whole city!
This Great Wilderness Imperial City, which has an extremely high status in the hearts of all the people in the Northern Wilderness. Even the rebels did not dare to damage the city even when they entered the city. Now, because of Tang En's escape plan, it has been in a state of chaos. , in a state of embarrassment...
Gradually, the soldiers in Beihuang became afraid, retreated, and became terrified!
They don't even dare to walk now. Every time they lift their feet, they have to first take out their weapons and carefully test the safety of the next foothold. This trembling look was like walking on thin ice.
In this case, how can this search proceed? How can we fight this battle?
And this is what the strong men of the Wild Eagle Tribe saw after they hurriedly arrived. Their faces suddenly turned black and they roared loudly: "Damn it, what the hell are you doing?"
After listening to the timid explanations of several soldiers, a strong man suddenly became angry: "Nonsense! I have been on the battlefield for so many years, and I have never heard of this nonsense. Give it to me, who dares to back down? One step and I'll kill him with one palm!"
Under heavy pressure, the soldiers were helpless and had no choice but to form their formation again and rush forward.
Seeing this, the strong man's face turned slightly, he snorted, turned to the other fellow masters and said: "Everyone, that Bran bastard ran away too fast. Now we can only lead some people to search separately. If we find the other party's whereabouts, we will Send the signal immediately..."
Before the explanation was completed, suddenly, boom... air waves rolled and snowflakes flew everywhere.
The strong man turned his head in shock when he heard the sound, and saw a black shadow hitting his head. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and raised his hand to grab the object with his eagle claws. Roar violently,
"Again..." In sight, the soldiers who had just rushed out more than ten steps were already scattered. Some flew in the air, and some crashed into the walls of the houses on both sides. There are still a few lucky people standing there with trembling legs, wanting to run but not daring to move at all...
As soon as he lowered his head, he realized that the object hit by his hand was a hairy thigh, and blood spurted out, instantly covering the strong man's head and body.
Following the previous sentence, he subconsciously murmured, "...What's going on? Uh..."
…
On the outskirts of Xicheng District, Lan Sha and Tai Ge, who finally arrived, looked at the city in front of them, which seemed to be on fire everywhere, and were speechless.
Even though Lan Sha, who knew Tang En's methods and was prepared in his heart, never thought that the other party would go to such great lengths in order to escape!
Soon, the two learned the general situation from the people who ran out of the city in panic.
Tago was immediately stunned. After a while, he turned around to look at Lansha, whose lens reflected the firelight, and sighed with emotion: "I think I know now why you are so fiercely protecting that Bran... This is an excellent alchemist. The destructive power? On my own, haha, it’s really terrifying!” He smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Lansha pursed his lips when he heard this, and looking at the spectacular scene in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. It seems that putting him in the craftsman's office was the wrong decision...
"I take back what I said before. Judging from the current situation, the people of the Mad Eagle Tribe may not be able to catch him." Touching his chin, Tago continued, "However, we had ordered the four city gates to be closed when we came. In the end he still couldn’t escape.”
After a pause, he sighed, "I hope he won't die now. As long as he is still breathing, our Hidden Snake Tribe is willing to offer any conditions in exchange for him..." At this point, Tago looked at Lansha and couldn't help but shake his head. , obviously, if that happens, the royal family will definitely not let go of this opportunity. The chance of their tribe getting Tang En is extremely slim.
At this moment, a figure rushed over from a distance. It was Andre, and it was he who had just gone to give the order to close the city gate.
"Your Highness!"
Lan Sha turned around to look, nodded and asked, "Is the city gate closed?"
"Well, it's off, but..." After a pause, Andre looked at Lansha, his eyes seemed to be sizing up, and his expression was extremely strange.
Lan Sha frowned: "But what?"
Andre took a deep breath and said with a wry smile: "But the soldiers at the West City Gate said that not long ago, they saw with their own eyes Your Highness you left the imperial city on horseback."
"Well?"
"What!"
