Volume 1 Hatred Chapter 51 Battle in the Royal Capital
Five Roads and Thirteen States...an organization with years of experience...
Over the years, they have collected a lot of information about the legend of the "Spirit Killer" and have a clear grasp of the royal capital.
And because Jiusei is very close to Wulu and Thirteen Prefectures and has a good relationship, so the details of Jiusei and Wulu and Thirteen Prefectures also know a little about it.
The founder of the Five Routes and Thirteen Prefectures combined the name of the state boundary of the royal capital "Thirteen Prefectures" and the name of the road district of Jiusai "Five Routes" together as the name of the organization.
It means peace and unity, long-term and eternal.
However, the conflicts among the various states in the royal capital increased rapidly, and some people fled to other places.
Fighting is inevitable.
This time the war between the Five Routes and Thirteen States and the Royal Capital was initiated by Zhang Wushuang and his general Jiang Ju against the Royal Capital.
Although the purpose of this reaction was just to warn the royal capital, the casualties and losses were extremely heavy, to the point where they were in despair.
…
"Commander Zhang, the statistics of casualties this time are down. Do you want to see it?"
A man wearing a blue and white helmet came in, holding a piece of paper in his hand. There was a long and narrow vertical scar on his left eye. His cultivation was already near the peak of the trace state.
When Zhang Wushuang heard the man's words, he looked forward. The haze between his brows meant that his sadness was still lingering. He nodded slightly, pointed to the table in front of him, and motioned for him to put it down.
The man put down the sheet of paper. Zhang Wushuang glanced at it briefly and asked: "Zhang Nanyu, our casualty statistics are so large, why are the losses in the royal capital so minimal? Where do our casualties come from?"
Zhang Nanyu's brows furrowed and his expression became slightly troubled before he said, "Commander Zhang, I have something to say that may scare you. Do you want to listen to it?"
"explain!"
Zhang Wushuang put his arms on the table, covered his forehead with his hands, lowered his head and pondered.
Zhang Nanyu slowly said: "Our actions this time will most likely give the Wanqi Yi family a great warning, rather than a warning!"
"You said that the capital has been prepared for a long time? What do you mean by what you said?" Zhang Wushuang frowned, not understanding what Zhang Nanyu said.
Zhang Nanyu's left eye gradually closed, and he slowly said to Zhang Wushuang: "Last week, I fought with Qiu Suizi in Xuanzhou. We originally had the upper hand, but I didn't expect that Qiu Suizi's move would turn the entire battlefield into a new one.
They escaped because of the fire."
"When we were about to start retreating, they started to kill us again. When we caught up with them, they started to move the battlefield again. Just like this, we fought for a long time and fought for nearly a month without making any progress."
After hearing Zhang Nanyu's words, Zhang Wushuang was horrified for a while, and quickly said to Zhang Nanyu: "You have been fighting Qiu Suizi for a month? It's only been a month since the war started until the strategic shift!"
"right!"
Zhang Nanyu acknowledged Zhang Wushuang's words, then sighed and continued: "The casualties were the battle that turned us into a final defeat!"
Zhang Wushuang's eyes immediately changed and he began to listen more seriously.
"That day, on the way to pursue Qiu Suizi's remaining army, we couldn't stop in time and the army was exhausted, so we rested in the mountains."
"I thought that the mountain is located in a high position. Even if the army of the royal capital attacks, this mountain will be easy to defend and difficult to extricate. But who knows, this mountain has become a tomb for our troops!"
"In the middle of the night, in a daze, we felt a huge vibration like the earth was shaking. The whole mountain began to collapse. Just as the rocks were rolling down one after another, I saw a magic circle with huge curse patterns, trapping us.
Together."
"This spell pattern seems to be able to affect the will of others. Everyone covered their heads and shouted that their heads hurt."
"After that...then our own people rushed to kill each other...until the end, only a few hundred people walked out of the magic circle..."
After Zhang Wushuang heard this, his whole body was trembling. He seemed to know what the so-called security of the royal capital was!
Seeing Zhang Wushuang's somewhat frightened look, Zhang Nanyu immediately said, "Then, could this magic circle be the new guard of the capital?"
"Disturbing the mind and controlling the consciousness? How is it possible..."
"No, it's impossible. That curse pattern is Wanqiyi's illusion! How could it appear in the form of a magic circle! You can't be affected unless you see the curse pattern!" Zhang Wushuang was so surprised that his voice kept rising.
He fell down, covering his face and feeling at a loss.
"Only me and a few people in the magic circle are not under control. But, do you think this magic circle is really the new guard of the royal capital?"
Zhang Nanyu kept staring at Zhang Wushuang, not daring to make a sound.
Zhang Wushuang slowly calmed down and said in a gentle tone: "There is only one illusion that I know that can control people's will on a large scale, and that is - Endless Destruction!"
"Illusion? Endless destruction?" Zhang Nanyu said doubtfully.
"Yes, the formation you encountered is an illusion. It may actually be in the form of formations to stimulate the generation of illusions. This kind of illusion is more difficult to evade than those activated by other forms!"
"Because only by breaking the formation can the illusion be lifted!"
"Fortunately, the formation is not perfect and is ineffective against some high-level people, so you will be immune to the effect of this illusion."
After Zhang Wushuang said this, he sighed softly and looked a little melancholy.
"Commander, what is the endless chaos you are talking about?" Zhang Nanyu had a doubt in his heart, and there was still a trace of unwillingness and embarrassment. The trace of fear still seemed to be lingering in his mind, unable to get out.
He must understand what kind of existence Wangdu is, and he will not be reconciled to losing like this!
Zhang Wushuang opened his lips lightly and recounted the memory in his heart: "Endless Wuannian is a long-lasting illusion that I have read in ancient books. This illusion is said to be the ancestor of the Wanqi family in the capital, Wan.
It was created by Qi Chong! He was the first ruler of the royal capital of the Wan Qi Yi clan. He was proficient in illusions and was also someone who had experienced the battle of the Spirit Defenders."
"The prerequisite for using the endless Wuyan is to have the special pupil power that can transform dreams into reality and reverse the mirror image - Wuyan. Only the eyes of Wuyan can activate this pupil technique."
"The Eye of Wufu, which has the ability to reverse mirror images, can create a plan in its own soul. This illusion, which can be reflected in the soul of the caster, is released from the Eye of Wufu.
, feeding the illusion back into reality. As long as you stare at the black curse pattern's eyes, you will accept this illusion in your heart."
"This false pupil technique that can paralyze the soul can transform people's consciousness of the soul, so it has always been listed as the first of Wanqi Yi's forbidden arts."
After listening to Zhang Wushuang's narration, Zhang Nanyu opened his mouth in shock, and his scarred left eye opened wide, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Zhang Nanyu looked at Zhang Wushuang in surprise, and then said through gritted teeth: "I didn't expect that the legendary pupil technique would be turned into a killing machine by them!"
Zhang Wushuang shook his head with interest and said to Zhang Nanyu, "Where are Commander Doutiankui and Commander Jiang Ju?"
When Zhang Nanyu heard Zhang Wushuang's words, the sadness and anger in his heart became a little stronger. He didn't want to tell Zhang Wushuang at first, but the matter was at this point and he resigned himself to fate. Sooner or later, he would tell Zhang Wushuang.
Zhang Nanyu lowered his head sadly and said in a trembling voice: "Commander Doutiankui... was captured alive by people from the royal capital."
"What!" Zhang Wushuang jumped up and shouted, "Where is Jiang Ju?"
Zhang Nanyu took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Zhang Wushuang, and said: "This is Jiang Ju's letter of retirement..." After saying this, Zhang Nanyu bit it, and his facial muscles twitched obviously.
Boom!
Retirement letter...
Retreat!
Hearing Zhang Nanyu's words, Zhang Wushuang couldn't accept it from the bottom of his heart. His comrade for five years has been walking down the road to spread the reputation and prestige of the Five Routes and Thirteen Prefectures to the world. Now Zhang Wushuang is only one of the Five Routes and Thirteen Prefectures.
Second to the status of military advisor, Jiang Ju’s contribution is the greatest!
Now, if he wants to retire, isn't it nonsense?
Zhang Wushuang was shocked and walked down suddenly. After pondering for a long time, he picked up the letter, opened it, and read it.
After reading it for a while, he couldn't stand it any longer. Zhang Wushuang tore the letter into pieces of paper, stroked his head and became depressed.
Seeing Zhang Wushuang's bruised appearance, Zhang Nanyu had no choice but to stand aside, waiting for Zhang Wushuang quietly without saying anything to disturb him.
After a long time, Zhang Wushuang raised his red and swollen eyes and shouted: "Use the full power of the hidden department, find out the whereabouts of Dou Tiankui as soon as possible, and save Dou Tiankui to the death!"
"Yes!" Zhang Nanyu agreed immediately.
"Now, Commander Zhang, where are we going?" Zhang Nanyu continued to ask.
"I'm going to see an old friend. He must have grown up."
Zhang Wushuang murmured in his mouth, and a glimmer of hope finally appeared in his frustrated eyes.
