Hearing that Soshyan had to enter the palace alone, Maximili turned to look at his commander of the battle. Just as he was about to say something, the other party immediately raised his hand.
"It's okay, Mark, you tell Ustad to take the soldiers to Fort Dorn when you go back."
"yes."
Then Soshiyang glanced at the sword around his waist and said with a smile:
"So do I need to remove my weapon?"
"No, we have no reason to treat a commander who returns to victory so harshly."
While speaking, the two doors slowly opened, revealing the dim passage. Soshiyang walked into the inner city of the palace surrounded by a team of imperial guards.
When he passed through the guard wall, he finally realized how thick the city wall was, at least the bottom was more than a hundred meters thick. Moreover, he saw the open thick alloy gates in the dark wall, which meant that if someone invaded, the gates would close immediately.
The team remained silent all the time, with only the sound of everyone's footsteps in the dim passage, Soshiyang was not sure how many pairs of eyes he was watched during this process.
When they walked out of the long, dim palace wall passage, the first thing that caught their eye was a huge tower in the distance. He had read the relevant introduction and knew that it was the overlord tower of the Imperial Guard - and it was also the Imperial Guard's combat command center, which coordinated various security measures of the palace, concentrated many data sources and security systems, and supervised all the buildings of the Imperial Guard.
At this time, he is also the target of focus on and supervising.
And further afield, he could only barely recognize the greatest building in the palace, the Imperial Senate, which was almost the pinnacle of the entire palace, only shorter than the Emperor's Forbidden Palace. It was like a mountain far away, hazy and blurry, like a thin gray line standing on the ground full of storms.
When he looked back at the wall, he saw more details.
The entire guard wall seems to be divided into more than a dozen floors. Some are train tracks that transport ammunition to the defense tower, some are giant pipes that provide energy for the void shield, and some are extended take-off and landing platforms. You can see gunboats and aircraft parked on it. The entire city wall spreads for hundreds of kilometers with a grand momentum. It is definitely not protected by the imperial guards. The defenders are basically mortals, such as the Lucifer Black Guards in black armor, and the palace guards in white robes. Some of them stand on their posts, some are constantly patrolling in teams, and their barracks are inside the guard wall.
Most of them probably would not be able to leave the city wall until they retired.
The interior and exterior of the palace are completely different. Although Terra is the heart of the human empire, it is still as dirty and chaotic as other human cities, full of various metal extensions and complex maze streets. However, the palace is almost a different world.
Its buildings are actually not many, and they are basically huge ancient castles. All the walls are covered with golden and similar warm colors. You can see everywhere, beside the gurgling fountains and the standing statues of the emperor. The roads are sandwiched between green shades and flowerbeds. There are even small pavilions for people to rest and view next to the huge artificial lake. Grapes are planted on and around the pavilions. Because the palace is built by structuring the terrain and directly cutting off the hillside, it looks very flat.
You can see servants in a hurry everywhere here, and the entire palace is even divided into outer hall and inner hall. It takes billions of service personnel to maintain the normal operation of the outer hall area. In addition, there are key departments such as Obsidian Fortress, Imperial Archives Fortress, Central Office of the Military Affairs Department and other key departments.
Of course, it was a waste of time to hike through the outer hall area, so the imperial guards prepared their aircraft, so Soshiyan got on the cabin and headed straight to the inner hall area.
During this process, Varelian said nothing, and Soshiyan could only look bored at the view of the Imperial Palace passing by outside the window.
About ten minutes later, the airship landed on the ground and landed on a huge square.
The square is round and has a diameter of more than two kilometers. When Soshiyan walked out of the cabin, he was immediately attracted by the huge statues.
Around the square stands statues of the primordials, each of which is nearly a hundred meters high. From the firm expression of Dorn to the compassionate San Gilles, each of which appears vividly, as if Soshiyan met them again-
Ryan, Chagatai, Rieman Rus, Dorn, Ferrus, San Gilles, Kiliman, Vulgan, Coraks, and nine primordies are presented here in different forms.
At one moment, Soshiyang's brain stinged, his body swayed, and subconsciously reached out to hold the thing beside him.
But then a strong hand supported his elbow.
"What's wrong?"
Varelian's doubtful voice came from under the golden pointed helmet.
Soshiyang shook his head hard.
"No...nothing...nothing..."
After taking a few deep breaths, he walked into the sun.
There should have been 20 gene primordial statues here, but the statues of the rebel primordials were also pushed down after the Great Rebellion, leaving only 9 loyal primordials, so they are also called the 9 primordial square. However, almost no one knows that there are two other primordials that disappeared long before the Great Rebellion.
In clockwise order, Soshiyan's target quietly swept towards the base of the eleventh statue.
What kind of person should have been on the empty pedestal?
After entering the inner hall area, there were many fewer people. The attendants in white robes stood on both sides of the trail, holding incense burners in their hands, and lowered their heads slightly.
The air was full of smoke. The servants had lit up the corridor corridor and the incense burner in the hall. There were many huge niches beside the trail. Those niches survived the rolling shells of Terra's siege and had been watching the solemn courtyard of the palace's inner palace for ten thousand years.
Walking through the golden trail, Soshiyan entered the corridor to the Senate. Not only servants, but also saw the patrol guards, holding decorated spears and staring at every corner with vigilance.
But seeing them Soshyan only felt a pity that these imperial guards were famous for their outstanding performance. They should be the most outstanding and capable warriors of the empire at present. But for the sake of past guilt, oaths, ceremonies and honors, they have been staying in the palace to serve, wasting their powerful power here, wasting time in this place where war would almost never come, day after day, night after night in perfectly painted armor.
The emperor needs protection, but the empire needs protection even more.
Soon, the destination of this trip, the Imperial Senate appeared in front of you.
