Of course, for the sake of his own image, he couldn't just do that. Reactive magical shield.
The standard equipment of the royal family is usually set on jade pendants and necklaces. This is why almost all princes have jade pendants as embellishments around their waists.
In addition to looking good, the most important thing is the protection of the royal family.
After all, the royal bloodline is noble, and while there are extraordinary powers in this world, there are always thieves with evil intentions.
Martial arts practitioners have a single method, so if they are dealing with a martial arts killer, no matter how powerful they are, the guards around them will always know how to deal with it.
But the same goes for warlocks.
There are as many stars as gods to visualize, which means that the magical powers of warlocks are also unpredictable.
No one knows what kind of methods a warlock with weird methods will use if he is determined to assassinate someone.
Not to mention anything else, it's just that the sorcerer's soul after leaving the body is basically invisible to people with insufficient cultivation.
Therefore, in order to deal with the mysterious assassination methods of the warlocks, every member of the royal family has more or less some stress-type protective magical powers, just in case.
This is also one of the tasks of a magician in the imperial service.
The magical powers on those jade pendants or necklaces were carved one by one by magicians. Although they are not powerful when separated from their masters, they are enough to prevent sudden assassinations.
Differently, these magical powers are not permanent. Although they can be retained for a long time without being activated, the power of the divine soul contained there will always be exhausted one day.
And as the power of the soul inside disappears, the magical powers that are activated become weaker.
Therefore, every once in a while, these jade pendants or necklaces need to be taken back and recharged and arranged by the royal family.
The reason for taking it back was not that the royal family was short of money, but that it was more convenient and trouble-free to re-infuse the protective magical power of the old jade pendant with the power of the soul than to re-infuse a jade pendant.
The reason why the old emperor was successfully assassinated by the Banren assassins a few years ago was not entirely due to the poor protection of the royal family members, but because they knew that the old emperor had emergency protective powers, so they subconsciously relaxed their vigilance.
The main reason is that they did not expect that someone could actually break the protective magical power set up by the warlock with one palm, and leave such serious injuries in the body of the old emperor who was also behind him.
Even the old emperor had the same idea, otherwise he would not have summoned the foreign envoys so carelessly and let them get close to a dangerous distance.
Of course, after forming an alliance with Di Xin later, the old emperor finally found out from Di Xin.
That Banren assassin was, not surprisingly, a person who came from the outside world.
From Di Xin, he has seen a hint of the fear of outsiders. The strong men with the same cultivation level in the Ancient Moon Realm are no match at all. Therefore, because of the incident at that time, he had a little resentment towards the inability to protect the royal family.
It disappeared.
Don't blame your teammates for not working hard, just blame your opponents for being too strong.
The original King Yu was successfully assassinated by King Jing's men when the old jade pendant was taken back but the new jade pendant had not yet been issued.
The reason why the old emperor was able to trace the assassination to King Jing was because the new jade pendant that should have been given to King Yu when the old jade pendant was taken back was secretly blocked by King Jing and was delayed for several days.
Later, Di Xin was in a hurry and forgot about it. Therefore, when faced with the vampire witch who was devouring the ancient moon world, he could only rely on his own cultivation to deal with it.
By the time the capital reacted and sent the jade pendant to Yanque Pass, Di Xin had already become a "waste" in the eyes of everyone.
As for later, those magical powers had no chance to work.
However, it can also be seen from this that Emperor Xin was not taken seriously at that time.
As for this kind of protective magical power arranged on a jade pendant or necklace, because the main object of protection is the magician's elusive magical power, it is quite effective in dealing with the brute force of martial arts cultivators.
A magical shield placed on an external object by a magician may be able to be chopped into pieces by a martial artist at the peak of the acquired world with just one strike, but it will only take a few more cuts at a late or middle acquired level.
Of course, as the master of Da Li, the old emperor must have top-notch protective powers, but even so, he could not withstand the impact of bullets.
The penetrating power at a single point cannot be compared to the bullets fired by the musket even by the innate master.
…
"A stress-type magical shield cannot stop bullets."
After Di Xin finished speaking, the old emperor subconsciously touched the jade pendant around his waist, which contained a protective magical power set up by the royal family.
Di Xin didn't need to say this, he knew it.
His cultivation was gone, but his eyesight was still there, otherwise he wouldn't have had such worries in the square before.
And now Di Xin's reminder made him react even more.
In fact, let alone the lack of materials, even if he could make a body armor that could cover his whole body, as the emperor of Dali, he couldn't wear it at all.
As the master of Dali, his face is sometimes the face of Dali.
If he went to court wearing a bullet-proof vest that even covered his head, Dali's face would be completely lost.
Cowardly, afraid of death, timid.
Once the emperor's prestige is lost, it will be difficult to re-establish it, and the entire Dali will inevitably be in turmoil. The situation that has been finally stabilized in the past few years may become even worse than before.
Even if the bulletproof vest in front of him could be completely hidden by the dragon robe, outsiders could not let outsiders know that he was wearing it at all times.
This is the royal palace.
If he wore a bulletproof vest in the palace, he would chill the hearts of the Imperial Guards.
If he didn't distrust their abilities, why would the old emperor not feel safe in such a tightly protected palace?
Therefore, Di Xin's proposal is the best.
Except for the few people he trusted most, it was best for others not to know of its existence.
In this way, even if an assassin really gets the musket and sneaks into the palace to assassinate him, the effect of this body armor can be maximized.
Even if the existence of the body armor was exposed, the old emperor could pretend that someone had just offered it to him, so he put it on out of curiosity, only to be assassinated.
So lucky.
By then, let alone doubts, the flattering voices of all the officials will probably collapse the roof.
And there is no need to worry anymore.
Assassins had already sneaked into the palace with firearms, and the Imperial Guards had no shame to say anything about trust or distrust. It would be better if they were not accused of dereliction of duty.
After that, even if the old emperor wears the bulletproof vest on the outside, no one else can say anything.
