Chapter 19: The Former King City

With Yan Huang's personality, of course he would not look for aimlessly. He had checked the map provided by Hongtou. Now they are heading to the "former capital" and the Royal City of Phoenix.
Before the Ice Age, Phoenix was the capital of this continent. Whether it was economic or force, it was more advanced than the capitals of other continents. Unfortunately, the first outbreak of Phoenix in the Ice Age was the first to break out from Phoenix. The defense measures prepared in the dark were not available to the civilians before they could be announced to the public, and they were swallowed up by the blizzard.
Even so, after hundreds of years, it is still magnificent and has almost not been destroyed by a blizzard. There are still tens of thousands of people living here. In contrast, there are only a few thousand people in Luoer City. It can be said that 70% of the survivors in the entire continent gather here.
"The innate conditions are indeed good, but unfortunately the development efforts are insufficient." This is Yan Huang's conclusion
Although there is a large population here, it means that there are also many mouths to eat. Most of the labor force in the entire city is used to solve the problem of eating. However, it is worthy of being the former capital. Now it is also a city ruled by Artoria's father. The planting and breeding industries have been restored. Although the harvest is average, at least there will be no famine.
"Let's go in and take a look, it doesn't matter?" Yan Huang said to Artoria in his arms.
"Well, my father has never seen me again since he fostered me in someone else's house. He doesn't even know what I look like now." When Artoria said this, her green pupils instantly dimmed.
"That's a pity. I can't see such a beautiful beauty." Yan Huang pinched her chin and said with a smile. Artoria forced a bitter smile. Yan Huang then rode his horse to the city gate.
Yan Huang did not rush to go in, but observed first. The guards were guarding at the city gate, and the indigenous people in the city probably had some kind of resident certificate. After checking the guards, they went in.
But it seems that they do not exclude foreign civilians. They only need to register and apply for a certificate to check in. This is also the case where the population cannot fill the city.
Yan Huang and Artoria's clothes and faces looked obviously not like refugees, so it was easy to be suspected. Therefore, Yan Huang was preparing to sneak in to sneak in and guard the city with very few guards, only two at the city gate, and then there was only one patrol soldier every 100 meters on the city wall. The guard was not very strict, so it should not be difficult to sneak in.
"Come, follow me." Yan Huang took Artoria to the side of the city wall. After dismounting, he signaled Artoria to follow him, and then reached out and pressed her hand on the city wall.
A dazzling red light spread from Yan Huang's hands to the city wall. The hard stone actually turned into liquid magma under his palm until it melted into a human-sized hole. Yan Huang stopped. After the burned stones cooled down, he took Artoria in.
According to Yan Huang's observation, the army of the royal city is not a weapon. In this way, it is speculated that Artoria's father did not discover the armory of ancient civilizations, which shows that the armory is not in the city
It can also be said that if he was not above the city, he would neither place important military weapons in the city where the citizens would see them, nor would he put them too far away from himself. Therefore, the best place is underground, and it is very likely to be in the underground secret room of the palace.
"Do you think you can break into the palace with me?" Yan Huang turned around and smiled at Artoria and said.
Artoria was stunned for a moment, then nodded firmly
"Okay, let's play Assassin's Creed today," Yan Huang said with a smile, and came to the palace with Artoria.
Compared with the guards guarded by the city walls, the number of soldiers in the palace is much larger. Obviously, Artoria's father attaches great importance to his own life and safety. Of course, Yan Huang's purpose of this trip was not to seize the life of Artoria's father, otherwise even if he had so many soldiers, it would be useless.
"The guard is so strict, but it shouldn't be difficult..." Yan Huang observed for a moment, picked up a rope from the side of the road, and intercepted the appropriate length, a flame spread from his hand to the rope, but the rope was not ignited, but turned into a long whip with flames burning.
"Go away," Yan Huang said in a low voice, hugged Artoria's waist, shaking a long whip and wrapped around the statue at the top of the palace. He pulled his arm and jumped onto the wall with Artoria.
"Stay in the shadows and try to keep quiet." Yan Huang ordered, walking on the balance beam on the wall, he walked into the palace.
However, there were many soldiers patrolling the palace, and there was no place to stay without being discovered, which made him very distressed: "It would be great if there was the Hawkeye of Assassin's Creed, and you could also find out where the mechanism and the secret door were..."
Hawk Eye does not, but he has Sharingan. In short, he opened it and tried it again and again. Yan Huang opened his eyes wide and looked at it. He actually saw some clues: There is no energy in the human body in this world, but the magic gems contain energy, so his eyes can see the magic fluctuations emitted by these gems.
In his eyes, other places and people in the palace were transparent, but there was obviously a gap under the floor of one of the rooms, and a faint blue magic light was emitting from it. Then the lower part should be where the arsenal was located.
Since there was no such ending point, Yan Huang was ready to create one by himself, so he stretched out his finger and bounced it. A fireball flew out and landed in a corner of the palace. A flame ignited. The guards rushed over to put out the fire.
"Let's go..." Yan Huang whispered, shaking the long whip wrapped around the lion statue on his head, hugged Artoria and landed lightly on the ground, and came to the room. It seemed to be a warehouse filled with various abandoned tables and chairs.
"It's right here." Yan Huang found the door handle from the thick dust, opened the secret door, but was choked by the gray and coughed. The two of them quickly crawled in before the guards found them and closed the door.
Yan Huang raised his index finger, and a wisp of flames jumped on his fingers, illuminating the space below.
It was a passage. Yan Huang and Artoria continued to explore forward. The passage was very long and spread downward on National Day. After walking for about five minutes, we finally arrived at an empty place.
The fire on the fingers was no longer enough to illuminate the entire area, so Yan Huang raised his hand and threw a fireball, allowing it to rise slowly until it was attached to the top.
"Oh..." Yan Huang sighed with his waist, "Isn't it just a weapon? As for such an exaggeration?"
The space below is about ten meters high, about the size of two football fields, and it is actually a huge maze. There is a bridge connected to the other end of the maze, and a faint light flashes at the end of the bridge.
