Chapter 1163 - 1163 Hostage
1163 Hostage
Within the Imperial City, Tang Mingyue sat in front of the bed.
She hadn’t had much rest since she started playing the game, so she could finally have a good sleep.
Tang Mingyue’s heart was in turmoil but she did not feel sleepy. She wasn’t worried about herself, but her mind was full of the treasures that she and Fang Heng had stolen from the royal treasury.
“With Fang Heng’s ability, it shouldn’t be a problem, right?” Tang Mingyue muttered to herself. She could not help but try to gather her spiritual power again.
Unfortunately, her power had been completely sealed. Not only was the power from the demonic seed sealed, but her mental power was also sealed.
The door of the room moved slightly.
“Who is it?”
Tang Mingyue noticed the movement and turned to look at the door. Then, her face revealed a surprise expression.
“Fang Heng?”
Tang Mingyue quickly lowered her voice. She quickly looked around and asked, “Where are the things? How are the treasures we stole from the treasure vault?”
“Yes, it’s done.”
Fang Heng released his perception to sense the surroundings and stepped into the room, asking, “And you?”
“Not good”
Recalling what had happened not long ago, Tang Mingyue’s eyes flashed with a touch of fear.
“It was Salvador, the acting Emperor of the Empire. I could not resist him at all.”
Fang Heng blurted out, “He’s so strong?”
Tang Mingyue’s strength had increased by leaps and bounds after she had been demonized, and she had completely evolved into a mage cannon.
But she didn’t even have the ability to resist?
“Yes,” Tang Mingyue’s expression was grave as she said in a deep voice, “He knew that I had the ability to demonize and had a way to deal with me. I was completely suppressed by him before I could even do anything.”
“And then? He only sealed your ability?”
Tang Mingyue recalled, “Salvador asked me where I got the ‘demonic seed’ and about the sacred tree. He didn’t seem to care about the theft of the royal treasury.”
It was strange. At first, Tang Mingyue thought that the royal family wanted to capture her because of the royal treasury issue, but now it seemed that the royal family didn’t care so much about it.
As Tang Mingyue spoke, she extended her hand to Fang Heng and showed him her wrist. A black rune ring appeared on her fair wrist.
Fang Heng took Tang Mingyue’s hand and put it in front of his eyes, carefully looking at the ring on his wrist, thinking.
He had never seen such a strange ring before.
“There must be something wrong with the royal family. I have acted ignorant to all questions regarding the ‘demonic seed’ and will continue to pretend that I don’t know anything. Salvador has placed me under house arrest here for the time being. I think he must know more about the ‘demonic seed’.”
“Hmm, let’s not worry about that for now. I’ll take you away.”
“No, you should go back first. I don’t have the ability to fight now…”
Buzz…
Halfway through his sentence, Fang Heng suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of the door.
“Thump Thump Thump!!”
“Your Highness Mingyue, we have discovered traces of an enemy invasion. Please open the door.”
“Thump Thump Thump…”
The knocking on the door became more and more rapid.
Fang Heng and Tang Mingyue quickly exchanged looks.
It’s time to fight with them!
Quark, the captain of the royal guards, noticed that there was no response from the room and immediately realized that something was wrong. He was about to signal his men to break the door.
“Not good!”
Quark’s expression changed as he retreated with a few royal guards who were with him.
“BOOM!!!”
The next moment, a white bone spear shot out from the door and the door was blasted open in front of everyone.
Fang Heng rushed out of the broken door and the white bone pierced forward.
“BOOM!!!”
The two royal guards who were at the front were hit by the bone spear and they hit the wall behind them, making two muffled thuds.
The royal guards were surprised.
The alchemy rune alloy shield, which was fused with the Empire’s top-tier technology, was actually dented by the bone spear!
“Take him down!”
A royal guard on the right immediately counterattacked. His long spear spun in the air and struck out like lightning.
Woof!!
The long spear passed by Fang Heng’s side and pierced a deep hole in the wall behind him.
[Hint: You have dealt 387 actual damage to the royal guard (affected by armor, buffer, shield block, and other skills).]
The royal guards of the Empire.
Fang Heng squinted his eyes and scanned through the game log. His heart sank as well.
The other party’s physical fitness was extremely high, and he even had extraordinary martial arts techniques!
...
More than 20 royal guards got into formation and faced the enemy with their long spears.
The long spear was shrouded in a layer of sharp light. It went forward rapidly, and the spear momentum blocked Fang Heng’s escape route in all directions.
Fang Heng couldn’t dodge all of them, so he simply tried to hit hard in one direction, thinking of a way to kill one first and then break them one by one.
“Bang!”
The high-speed rotating spear tip grazed Fang Heng’s right shoulder and immediately exploded into a mass of flesh and blood.
[Hint: You have been pierced by the royal guard’s skill-dragon strike. You have received 1,239 points of damage.]
[Hint: Your action has been interrupted.]
Fang Heng’s heart sank.
The royal guard’s skill took away more than 1,000 HP from him in one go, and it also had an interruption effect, causing him to be sluggish.
In less than half a second, more than 20 royal guards formed a line in front of him again.
Fang Heng frowned. The wound on his shoulder that had just been blasted was also healing quickly.
...
The royal guards blocked Fang Heng on one side of the passage and thrust their long spears, trying to force Fang Heng to move.
Quark, the chief guard, focused on Fang Heng’s movements and warned his men in a deep voice, “Be careful! His defensive abilities are very strong!”
Fang Heng realized that he couldn’t rush forward and could only dodge back and forth in the dense spear momentum. He felt that it was extremely troublesome!
He had misjudged the strength of the Imperial City’s garrison.
F*ck.
When fighting against barbarians, he would be submissive, and when dealing with players, he would strike with his fists!
Fang Heng felt resentful in his heart.
If he was alone, he could just take the damage and run. Now that Tang Mingyue, who could not fight, was here, it was difficult to run.
The goal of this exploration mission had been achieved. Tang Mingyue’s location had been confirmed. They could come again next time.
He would give it one last try. If it didn’t work, he would give up.
Under the dense spear momentum, Fang Heng’s figure flashed and disappeared from where he was.
Teleportation!
The royal guards were stunned.
Disappeared?!
Whoosh!
Fang Heng’s figure appeared next to Tang Mingyue in the room behind them.
Without waiting for Tang Mingyue to speak, Fang Heng directly held her in front of him and put the black dagger on her neck. He said in a deep voice, “Get out of the way, or I’ll kill her.”
Meh?
Tang Mingyue was stunned for a moment before she realized what was going on. She shouted, “Don’t! Don’t be rash!”
The captain of the royal guards, Quark, frowned.
“Chi!”
Fang Heng did not hesitate. The sharp dagger in his hand pierced the skin of Tang Mingyue’s neck directly.
Fresh blood seeped out from his neck.
The guards didn’t dare to make a move, nor did they dare to let Fang Heng leave. They just stood there stiffly.
“Back off.”
As Fang Heng spoke, he took Tang Mingyue as a hostage and slowly walked forward.
Seeing that the guards were still hesitating, Tang Mingyue shouted, “I told you to back off! Are you all deaf?”
