Although the atmosphere was extremely depressing, after a while, everyone finally arrived at the real core area of the holy city of Jakarta - the Holy Imperial City!
As the capital of the Emirate of Barcelona, the Imperial City is not only the residence of the king, but also the political decision-making center of the entire country.
Also because of this.
The imperial city in front of you is called the city within the city, and it is the real lifeblood of the royal family of the Emirate of Barcelona!
Compared with the miserable situation in the civilian areas of the outer city, although the inner city walls of the imperial city also suffered different types of damage, the actual situation was much stronger than that of the outer city.
The sentry tower on the city wall seemed to be fully armed, and all kinds of powerful thermal weapons were moved onto the tower.
The soldiers of the Royal Guards of the Imperial City vigilantly patrolled back and forth on the tower.
At the entrance of the city tower, soldiers used dilapidated house beams and various debris to build a temporary fortification barrier.
A posture of strict defense!
The convoy drove slowly into the inner palace of the imperial city, with the violent locomotive following at the rear. When it was Xue Yun's turn to enter the city, the guards at the city gate suddenly stopped the vehicle.
"What's going on?!"
Picking up the loudspeaker, Xue Yun shouted to the soldiers at the front of the car: "Make way, we are going into the city!"
"You are not qualified to enter the city!" the guard shook his head.
"What the hell?"
Xue Yun said speechlessly: "Did you make a mistake?!"
"That's right!"
The leading guard said solemnly: "Your vehicles do not belong to the Royal Guards of the Imperial City. The King has an order that all non-royal personnel are not allowed to enter the Imperial City unless they are officially invited by the King!!"
"We are friends of Her Highness the Princess, open the door quickly!" Hu Kui grabbed the speaker and shouted.
"Her Royal Highness's friend?"
Raising his brows suspiciously, the leading guard shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it, and we haven't received any relevant notifications or orders..."
Everyone in the cockpit was completely confused!
How could it be said that they were the ones who escorted Susan all the way back to Jakarta, and then she was abandoned like this?
"I'm warning you once, leave now!"
Waving his hands impatiently, the guard shouted: "Otherwise, we will all be punished as treason!"
I’ll fuck your brother-in-law!
Isn’t this too damn arrogant!?
Xue Yun's face suddenly darkened. Although these guards were responsible for their duties, they were too arrogant!
As for the others, their faces had already turned the color of pig liver from anger.
You all are considered prominent figures in the Great Xia Empire. When have you ever experienced such cowardice!?
"Fuck..."
Holding a cigarette in his mouth, Hu Kui woke up from his dream and said: "Old Xue, look at the attitude of these bastards. I can't bear it anyway. Open the door. I must teach these soldiers a lesson today!!"
A riot was about to break out.
Perhaps because she heard the noise behind her, Susan actually trotted back from a distance.
As for Mecca, she has always been with her, and she has never left her.
"Lao Hu, wait a moment..."
Quickly stopping the furious Hu Kui, Xue Yun said in a deep voice: "Don't be impulsive. Take a look before talking."
But I saw Susan negotiate a few words with the guard at the door. The guard's attitude was naturally respectful and he did not dare to show any slightness.
After a long while, Susan finally came to the violent motorcycle and gently knocked on the door.
"Tianyi, open the door." Xue Yun ordered.
The next moment, the car door opened and everyone welcomed Susan into the car.
"Sorry, everyone..."
Susan apologized profusely: "It was my negligence. I didn't expect the guards to stop everyone. I have proven your identity, but this is the royal palace after all. I will arrange for someone to take everyone to the palace to settle down temporarily."
, I will come back to apologize to you all after I have finished meeting my father..."
What he said was very reasonable, and Xue Yun really couldn't fault it.
Anyway, the imperial city is safe for the time being, and the old king is not in danger. After Susan and her father are reconciled, Xue Yun wants to have a formal showdown with her.
Everyone has done what they promised her, and it's time for her to fulfill her promise and follow the Dawn Walkers team to return to the Global Night Watch Alliance Association in Longdu.
In this way, this difficult and high-stakes bonus mission can finally come to an end!
"OK!"
Nodding, Xue Yun responded: "Then let's take a short rest in the palace garden first, and don't forget the promise between us."
"Yes, I will!" After being stunned for a moment, Susan quickly responded.
She was about to turn around and get out of the car, but was stopped by Zhao Tianyi who was silent at the side.
"Wait a moment......"
"Is there anything else?" Susan asked inexplicably.
"You forgot this..."
He held a simple backpack in his hand.
Passing it into Susan's hand expressionlessly, Zhao Tianyi said coldly: "I think the contents inside should be very important to you."
In the backpack were Susan's personal belongings and some medical equipment she carried with her.
To her, it does have extraordinary meaning.
"Look at my memory, thanks!"
Taking the backpack with a smile, Susan turned around and followed Mecca out of the carriage without further delay, heading towards the deep palace.
After Susan left, the violent motorcycle was indeed allowed to go.
However, there were special palace maids leading the way, and the Imperial Guards were everywhere.
It's called an escort, but it's actually a surveillance all the way.
I'm afraid that Xue Yun and others will do some evil things inside the palace, so guarding against them is like guarding against thieves!
Going round and round all the way.
They were forced to take everyone to the palace area, and then the imperial guards dispersed!
Only a small team of people was left stationed at the gate of the Villa to monitor everyone's every move. Even the violent motorcycle that was completely stalled was flanked by two armored vehicles belonging to the Royal Guards of the Imperial City.
He stopped in front of the gate of the Villa as if he were managing prisoners.
"Dear guests...please come with me."
The maid from the palace opened the way in front, and Xue Yun and his party followed closely behind her.
The villa in front of you is elegantly decorated, antique, and full of the unique desert humanistic style of the Emirate of Barcelona.
Zhao Lihua and Leng Xintong had already woken up. They looked at the beautiful scenery of the palace garden along the way and chatted and laughed with An Ruxuan without feeling any discomfort.
Soon, everyone was assigned an elegant guest room.
In the huge living room, the maids prepared a large table of exquisite dishes and drinks for everyone.
Feng Dian had been sleeping in the open for several days, and everyone was already very hungry. Seeing so many hot meals, they couldn't help but move their index fingers.
"My slaves have important matters to attend to, so I won't disturb your rest."
After a pause, the maid couldn't help but remind: "Within the Bieyuan, if you have any needs, you can directly call the servants who come and go. Of course, you can also move freely, but you must not go outside the scope of the Bieyuan, otherwise you will be discovered by the Imperial Guards."
, treating them as rebels would be a serious problem."
After saying this, the maid bowed respectfully, turned around and left.
"I'm going..."
Looking at the maid's retreating figure, Zhuge Gangtang raised his eyebrows and said, "Why do I feel like this bitch is threatening us?"
“Be more confident and remove the word “feeling”!
Rolling his eyes, Xue Yun joked: "She is threatening us!"
Everyone looked at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Being in a foreign country and during a sensitive war period, it is inevitable that you will receive such unfair treatment.
Fortunately, thanks to Susan's relationship, everyone was well taken care of. Not only were they entertained with delicious food and drinks, but the accommodation arranged was quite satisfactory.
"Whatever!"
Lifting Xiaogu up and sitting at the dining table, Leng Xintong said with a hearty smile: "Let's fill our stomachs first!"
Everyone raised their eyebrows and simply took their seats one after another.
By pushing the cups and changing the cups, a table full of dishes was swept away!
After drinking and eating, everyone wanted to go back to their rooms and have a good sleep, but Zhao Tianyi suddenly stopped everyone and made an inexplicable suggestion.
"Everyone'd better come to my room..."
Everyone was stunned on the spot and had no idea what this guy was trying to do.
"Good guy..."
The corners of his mouth twitched, and Xue Yun asked: "What's wrong, do you want to tell us all a bedtime story?"
"Of course not."
Pushing up his glasses, Zhao Tianyi said enigmatically: "Don't you want to eavesdrop on what Susan and the king were talking about?"
Hearing this, everyone’s faces were filled with astonishment!
