Raging flames soared into the sky, turning the ruins into ashes, and thick smoke could be seen from far away.
This loud noise represents the fall of imperial power.
Just before today, no one could believe that hundreds of years of royal rule would end in this way.
It can only be said that things are unpredictable, and many things change in a way that is so bizarre that people are caught off guard.
The panicked royal members tried their best to escape, fearing that they would be devoured by monsters.
In the eyes of monsters, all human beings are the same. There is no distinction between high and low, they all eat the same food.
If you want to avoid being eaten, you can only run away and avoid it.
But compared to demons, humans are too slow and can be caught up easily.
It is simply as difficult as climbing to the sky to escape from the demon's pursuit.
The panicked people fell into despair. Looking at the current situation, no one could escape the monster.
Just when despair was spreading everywhere, some people were surprised to find that the demon no longer devoured and killed people.
They blocked the exit of the palace and gathered the fleeing people together. As long as they obeyed their orders obediently, the demons would not intentionally harm them.
If you dare to resist, you will be slapped to death with a claw.
Not only the royal family members, but also the defeated warriors and defeated demon hunters were also gathered together.
The square in front of the palace is now filled with prisoners, standing among blood and corpses.
Although it is early autumn, I feel like I am in the cold winter and I can't help but shiver.
The only thing I can do is to keep praying in my heart to get out of the immediate crisis as soon as possible.
But when they looked at the ferocious monsters, the embarrassed warriors and the monster hunters, the prisoners' hearts were suddenly filled with despair.
The elite army and demon hunters have been defeated by the demon army. Who can save them now?
The more I thought about it, the more desperate I became, and many of the timid prisoners were sobbing loudly at this moment.
But he didn't dare to wail loudly, lest he attract the attention of the demon, and he felt really depressed.
Just when I was feeling uneasy, I saw those ferocious demons making a commotion and ducking out of the way.
A figure walked slowly, followed by a demon tiger, as big as a giant elephant.
As this figure advanced, those ferocious monsters fell to the ground one after another.
It is like meeting the most noble king, paying homage with great ceremony and paying supreme respect.
Seeing this scene, the prisoners became more and more frightened and could not help but tremble.
Those captured demon hunters gritted their teeth and felt unspeakable humiliation in their hearts.
After gathering the power of all the demon hunters in the world and nearly a million soldiers, he was no match for tens of thousands of demons.
It can be seen that from now on, the world will undergo great changes, and demons will most likely take over the world.
Once that happens, it will inevitably lead to the devastation of life and even the complete extinction of the human race.
Just because in the eyes of demons, humans are just food and there is nothing special about them.
Especially for monster hunters, as the mortal enemy of monsters, there is absolutely no chance of survival.
The more they thought about it, the more desperate they became. Desperate thoughts once again arose in the minds of some demon hunters.
If we risk our lives and kill Tang Zhen directly, will we be able to gain peace and tranquility in the world?
But looking at the corpses at their feet and those powerful and terrifying demons, the demon hunters finally chose to give up.
It is almost impossible to kill Tang Zhen at this moment. Not only will it cost you your own life, but it will also involve other innocent people.
"Boom boom boom..."
A tall demon slowly walked over and stood in front of the captive.
The next moment, Tang Zhen stood on top of the demon's head, looking around coldly.
"You all think that I am leading the demons to cause chaos and disturb all living beings in the world?
But have you ever thought about why the royal family used such an array to chase and intercept me?
Maybe you think it's because I colluded with demons to bring trouble to the world?
But have you ever thought that if you hadn’t provoked me first, this would have been the result?”
Looking at the figure in the square, Tang Zhen's tone was cold and ruthless, and he continued to question.
"I just want to tell you that the real troublemaker in the world is actually hidden in this palace.
Just behind the palace, in that desolate hall that no one approaches, he is the one who controls everything and treats you as pawns to be sacrificed at will.
I came here for him, and I never thought of harming good people. All the people I killed deserved to die.
It's a pity that you are seeking your own death, so I can only go on a killing spree, after all, you will be punished if you do something wrong."
The prisoners looked puzzled, and Tang Zhen's words made them ponder in secret.
Is there any hidden secret behind this disaster?
As a result, at this moment, Tang Zhen's voice sounded again, echoing in the square.
"I have no intention of killing, but I can give you a chance to live.
Anyone who knows information related to the main hall, no matter how small or clear it is, can take the initiative to report it.
As long as you make it clear, you will be forgiven and you will never suffer any harm.
Time is limited, I hope you can seize the opportunity and don't lose your life in vain."
Upon hearing this, the prisoners in the square suddenly became excited, with anticipation flashing in their eyes.
I thought I was going to die, but suddenly I had a chance to live. It was a great blessing.
"I know the relevant news!"
Suddenly a man shouted loudly to Tang Zhen with an anxious expression on his face.
"I know it too!"
"And me, I've heard rumors too."
"I know a little bit about this, so I can tell the king everything!"
After seeing someone coming forward, the prisoners stepped forward one after another, fearing that they would miss a precious chance to survive.
"Very well, come over here and tell me everything you know."
Because of Tang Zhen's order, the prisoners were able to approach Tang Zhen and then kneel on the ground.
"You say it first."
Pointing at a prisoner, Tang Zhen said softly.
The prisoner did not dare to raise his head and said loudly: "Report to the king, that hall is the training ground of the national master, and it is also a forbidden area in the inner courtyard of the palace.
Just a year ago, the Imperial Master announced that he would be in seclusion and no one would be allowed to approach the main hall.
In the following year, no one saw the Imperial Master, and no one dared to enter the great hall."
When the prisoner said this, he glanced at Tang Zhen secretly, and then continued: "The villain only knows this. I hope the king is satisfied and can spare the villain's life."
Tang Zhen nodded lightly.
"Can."
Upon hearing this, the prisoner kowtowed excitedly and thanked him, then got up and ran outside.
I was afraid that Tang Zhen would regret it if he took a step too late.
When the other survivors saw this, their faces were full of envy, and at the same time they racked their brains to recall information that might be useful.
"It's your turn."
After hearing Tang Zhen's instructions, the second prisoner quickly said: "Although the Imperial Master is in seclusion, he has not cut off contact with the outside world. He sends letters every day and arranges to deal with various matters.
Just because the Monster Hunter headquarters is also under the control of the National Preceptor, whenever something big happens, the National Preceptor’s consent must be obtained.”
When the prisoner said this, he remained silent. Apparently this was all he knew.
"Very good, you can go."
Tang Zhen pointed to the third person and signaled the other person to start.
"The emperor had great trust in the imperial advisor and often swallowed various elixirs. It is said that they were all magical elixirs refined by the imperial advisor.
The emperor would not refuse the request made by the imperial master, and even allowed a large number of demon hunters to enter the palace to enhance the palace's defense strength."
Tang Zhen nodded secretly, thinking that was indeed the case.
The crazy god became the national advisor and deceived the emperor into confusion. After taking control of the demon hunter headquarters, he indirectly gained the country's military power.
Under such circumstances, it can be said that it is easy to mobilize the army and demon hunters to deal with Tang Zhen.
