Chapter 1784 - Sudden Attack
Chapter 1784: Sudden Attack
With the royal study room in the center, there was not a single person within a 300-meter radius. Outside the 300-meter radius were tens of thousands of Tenshou warriors forming a giant circle, guarding the place. Usually, there were only 1,000 warriors standing guard around the 100-meter radius point. After hearing what the man in the black robe had done in Royal Dome Starfield, the emperor was so afraid that he reinforced his protection.
Nowadays, he even carried three Two-star Earth-God Divine Instruments with him all the time. Filled with Spiritual Qi, they were ready to launch full-blown attacks at his enemy. He had instructed the warriors to kill anyone that set foot inside his protection circle. Even the officers and generals had to wait and talk outside the protection circle.
“Our emperor is really scared to death by the man in the black robe… He has not left his study for two days… Grand chancellor, it’s rare that you’ve agreed to initiate the war but, I think the emperor might not agree to it since he’s in a very unstable state,” said the grand general, Takao Sansen.
“General, I don’t think you know our emperor well enough! What happened in Royal Dome had indeed scared him to death! That is also why the emperor will speed up the whole war thing!” said the grand chancellor, Ishizai Danto.
“Why do you say so? Our emperor is the kind of man that likes to get things done quickly! He swears that he will destroy Saint Duke within three years! Do you really think that he will cancel his plan just because of some man in a black robe?!”
“That’s just your guess. I don’t think that is how he thinks…”
“Hehe… You should know that officers like me will never agree to start the war as soon as possible! Why do you think that I’m here now to speed up the whole war thing?”
“About this… You are right! Usually, this is the general’s responsibility! In fact, you have just brought a few of your officers to persuade the emperor with me… Could that mean the emperor has given you a direct order?”
“You are right! I received the emperor’s order this morning. He asked me to bring the core officers with me to discuss some business with him! From what I know, we are not the only ones! Even the royal members have been asked here! It’s obvious that the emperor wants war now!”
“This is great! The soldiers and I have ran out of patience! We are going to destroy Saint Duke, take away all their resources, rule their lands, toy with their women, and enslave their men! This is going to be awesome! Hahaha…”
“Grand general! Please refrain yourself from saying something so explicit. After all, you are still an important officer here!”
“What’s wrong with saying something explicit? I’m a real man! Besides, these are the reasons why I love going to war!”
“Grand general is right! As long as we win the war, we can take possession of their resources, land, women, and even make them our slaves!”
Suddenly, a group of men in fancy clothing walked towards them. The few men walking at the front were Tanshou’s Wangye and the group of young men walking behind them were princes.
“Speaking about women! That princess, Luo Puti is mine!” said Second Wangye, Wugui Taiyu with a perverted smile on him.
“Second brother! With your current age, you are qualified to become her father! I think you should let me take possession of her! Hahaha…” said Ninth Wangye.
“Fellow uncles! From what we know, the two of have married multiple wives! I think we should be the ones that take possession of Luo Puti!” said the princes.
“Fine! Fine! Fine! Go ahead and take all the women! I’m going to take possession of all their resources anyway! Spiritual Stones are what matters to me!”
“I’m going to enslave 100,000 men from Saint Duke and order them to build a city for me!”
Everyone was getting really excited and talking about how to utilize their plundered resources even though the war had not even started yet. What they did not expect was that the man in the black robe had already entered the protection circle and arrived at the entrance of the royal study room.
Buzz…
Buzz…
A flying bug smaller than a fly buzzed around the study room.
“Just like what I expected! There’s no place for me to get into the study room!” said the fly.
This fly was, in fact, Chen Xiaobei. Earlier, he had used the High-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur to transform himself into a fly! Though his Nightstalker Outfit was upgraded recently, it still did not allow him to achieve full invisibility. In order to get into the protection circle without anyone realizing it, he had to turn himself into a common insect.
Another thing was that Chen Xiaobei would not be able to feed the emperor the Heavenly Dog Biscuit while he was still a fly. That was because all the windows and doors were all tightly shut and there was a small defensive formation that had been set up keeping any living beings from getting close to the study room.
To get into the study room, Chen Xiaobei had to destroy the formation first. Of course, he had already expected to encounter such a problem, which was why he brought his secret weapon with him.
Swoosh!
Chen Xiaobei deactivated the skill and returned to human form. He then put on the usual black suit.
“Man in the black robe!!! He is standing in front of the study room!!!”
The guards that kept an eye on the study room 24/7 had immediately noticed Chen Xiaobei.
“How did he enter the protection circle?! We have tens of thousands of warriors guarding here!”
“Is he a man or a ghost… No normal human being can pull such a stun!”
“I don’t think he is a ghost… I think he is an Earth God!”
None of them could figure out how did Chen Xiaobei entered the protection circle.
“Stop standing there! Form up into formation and protect the emperor!” shouted Takao Sansen.
“Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor!” Izhizai Danton shouted as well.
Rumble!
Suddenly, three rays of lights landed at the entrance of the study room. Chen Xiaobei, however, was not the one who launched the attack. It seemed like the emperor wanted take the initiative to attack Chen Xiaobei first. In total, the emperor had spent 30 million low-grade Spiritual Stones to power all three of his Two-star Earth-God Divine Instruments!
Standing at the entrance, Chen Xiaobei did not have enough time to dodge the attack because he did not expect the emperor to attack first.
