As soon as the man in red said the words, I couldn't help being slightly stunned - the man in red could spend five years laying such a huge trap for the Palace of Punishment. He was definitely not a stupid person. How could he change in just a few words from me? Got an idea
The man in red said solemnly: "People often say that Zhuge Liang can calculate all the secrets of heaven, but in my opinion, this is not the case. Since he can calculate all the past and future, how can he not calculate that the Han Dynasty will be difficult to prosper? What you call Zhuge Liang's letter is just It’s just a myth.”
It dawned on me. What the man in red is really afraid of is not Zhuge Liang, but fate. "Two men competing for merit" and "leaving a letter to shock Liu Ji" are in a sense Zhuge Liang's insight into the secrets in advance. Otherwise, how would Zhuge Liang know that someone would sneak into Motianling and Liu Bowen would appear in the future
Moreover, Zhong Hui and Deng Ai did not die due to Zhuge Liang's plot, but died in the inevitable battle. This was their destiny.
In the eyes of the man in red, the destiny is even more terrifying than the mechanical city. There may be a way to escape in the mechanical city, but there is no escape under the destiny.
The man in red pushed Tao Xiyu away and stood proudly in the middle of the secret room. He took out a copper bell and shook it three times in the air. The fox bell stuck behind the head of the yellow scarf warrior rose angrily with the sound of the bell and trembled crazily in the air. More than a dozen bells rang out like a tidal wave, and the arm of the yellow scarf warrior slowly stopped.
The man in red shook the copper bell and sneered: "How about it? I have said that Zhuge Liang's plan is just mediocre. Those who understand Yin and Yang and peek into the way of heaven are all lies. I only know that man can conquer heaven."
I couldn't help but frown. The twelve yellow scarf warriors suddenly opened their eyes at the same time, and blood rushed out of their eyes. The hands that were originally grasping the levers of the mechanism clenched tightly, the veins on their shoulders tensed up, and the strength of their whole bodies gathered. Take off with momentum.
The man in red was shocked and shook the copper bell desperately. Although the harsh ringing sound was whirling and angrily in the secret room, the twelve yellow scarf warriors were completely unwilling to obey her orders, and they quickly shook the mechanism lever while roaring in unison.
The speed at which the machine started was instantly several times faster than before, and the gears connected to the machine city actually erupted into clusters of sparks as they spun and rubbed. Now as long as you raise your head and take a look at the sky, all you can see is the rain of fire and golden flowers all over the sky.
Tao Xiyu suddenly screamed: "Hurry up, the city is about to collapse..."
"What did you say?" Before I could finish my words, a gear the size of a tabletop flew from the roof of the secret room, whirling to the ground with strong winds and smashing down. I watched as the wooden boards on the ground were being blown away layer by layer by circular saw-like gears. Countless gears were flying down from the sky one after another.
Although the secret room of the agency is only a few hundred meters in diameter, it presents a doomsday scene like the earth is falling apart. The moment countless black iron gears fell from the sky, loud noises like the cracking of the earth erupted from the top of the secret room - the cracks that exploded on the ceiling of the secret room seemed to cover the sky of the secret room in an instant. The top will completely collapse.
Tao Xiyu and I no longer dared to hesitate, and quickly turned around and ran towards the shelter. As soon as we started to take steps, the loud sound of the secret room collapsing suddenly came from behind us. The air flow brought up by the collapse of the roof swept up the billowing smoke and dust in an instant, surpassing Tao Xiyu and I's footsteps. In my sight All that was left was the dust that spread all around.
The moment I stopped for a moment, a loud bang came from behind me again. The next moment, the sounds of Qinggong masters jumping back and forth came one after another, and my expression suddenly changed: "Tao Xiyu, you go back to the shelter, I'll go see what's going on."
When I turned around and rushed towards the secret room again, Jiuying's eight heads had already dropped into the secret room from the cracks in the ceiling. This secret room seemed to be specially designed to imprison Jiu Ying. Jiu Ying's eight heads and a coffin happened to be stuck in the incomplete mechanism and could not move.
A large number of execution hall masters then fell from the air and fought with the demon servant who fell into the secret room.
While the elders of the execution hall tried their best to prevent the other party from rescuing Jiu Ying, Li Yingjie, whose body was covered with scars, shouted in a hoarse voice: "Quick! Throw all the ammunition down, and we must blow up Jiu Ying. Hurry up!"
Li Yingjie gave an order, and all kinds of ammunition fell into the secret room through the gap. The disciples of the Prison Hall outside were eager to throw all the explosive things into the secret room. Once detonated, the entire secret room would be burned together with the Jiuying Jade Stone.
"You can't vote!" I shouted to stop him, "Jiuying is now..."
Before I finished speaking, Jiuying, who was facing down, suddenly turned his head. Three women's heads hit the surroundings at the same time, and a string of fire burst out from the corners of his mouth.
"No..." I didn't have time to greet others, my body rose up as I exerted my strength on my feet, and I withdrew into the secret passage. Before I could turn around, I saw raging fire coming toward me.
I immediately turned around and rushed towards the door of the shelter like crazy. Although my sprinting speed had reached my limit, the violent wave of air behind me was one step faster than me, lifting me into the air only three or four meters away from the shelter.
I just felt like I was flying through the door of the shelter like a cloud, and immediately fell hard to the ground. Before I could get up, I was quickly pulled aside by Ye Xun and An Ran. I don’t know who quickly closed the door behind me and locked the bolt. The only thing I could feel was the sound of explosions one after another outside. The door of the shelter was shaking violently, and my heart was shaking violently along with the shaky door.
After a while, the explosions outside stopped. Si Ruo looked at me and said, "Should we go out?"
"Wait a moment." I closed my eyes after saying these four words.
The Palace of Punishment is over... So what if some of them survived the explosion
The elites of the Hall of Punishment have been destroyed, and the disciples remaining in various branches will also be killed by the Five Meridians of Detective God. In this battle, Xingdian is the biggest loser.
Is this the result I want? That's right.
Before this, I wanted to kill all the Xingdian. Only by destroying the Xingdian could I survive. Now that the results are there, I can’t tell how it feels.
The heroism of the Xingdian disciples rushing towards Jiuying can never be erased from my heart. Even if I am no longer in the arena for the rest of my life, I will never forget their bloody battle.
The Hall of Punishment is worthy of the morality of the world, but it is worthy of the name of Detective God.
Speaking of hate, I can no longer hate it. Speaking of respect, I respect those warriors who died. Speaking of love, I feel like I can’t integrate myself into the Detective Hand.
Ye Xun patted my shoulder and said, "It's time to go out."
"It's time to go out." I stood up and slowly opened the door of the shelter. The first thing I saw was the machine city that penetrated the sky. Half of the city has been blown into ruins. It should not only be the power of ammunition, but also the power of Jiuying itself.
Looking around, the third city has become devastated, and the broken bodies of the disciples of the execution hall are mixed among the rubble, which is too horrible to see. When I stepped on the ruins on the ground and walked towards the gap in the government city, I saw several disciples from the execution hall gathered around and shouted something.
I quickly walked up and separated the crowd, only to see Li Yingjie with only half of his body left. The other party struggled and said: "Wang...Wang Huan, come here."
I walked over to Li Yingjie and squatted down. He grabbed my hand tightly and said, "Our punishment hall is incompetent and let the coffin escape. You... you take the remaining disciples to find the coffin. Please… "
I looked up at the dozen or so disciples left in the Hall of Punishment. Not only were all of them injured, but they also had no fighting spirit. Taking them into the prison city again would be tantamount to seeking death.
I shook my head and said, "They can't fight anymore."
Li Yingjie shouted at the top of his lungs: "You are a detective, you are also a detective! The detective takes the lead..."
I patted the other party's palm gently: "Let them go out to report the news, and I will enter the restricted area myself. You don't need too many people to commit suicide."
Only then did Li Yingjie reveal a smile: "If I had met you earlier, I would have dragged you into the execution chamber. I have had no regrets for half of my life, but for the rest of my life... 'The Detective does not seek fame or fortune, only a clear conscience' I have forgotten it for too long..."
Li Yingjie left with hatred before he finished speaking. I gently touched the other person's eyes: "Senior is worthy of the name of exploring the gods."
The few remaining disciples of the execution hall couldn't help but burst into tears. I waited until they had cried enough, and then said to the only remaining elder in white: "You go, leave the Maze City, and take my injured friends with you. I will leave a mark for the reinforcements, and I hope you can chase them."
The elder in white smiled bitterly and said: "Where are we going to find reinforcements? The Palace of Punishment is over, there will be no reinforcements."
I asked back: "Don't you still have a palace master?"
The elder in white nodded slightly and said: "Yes, we still have the master of the palace. Let's go, the Palace of Punishment cannot be destroyed."
I turned to look at the remaining people and said, "Ye Xun, An Ran, Lao Meng, you can go out, I can handle it here."
Ye Xun just raised his eyelids and looked at me, then stood behind me holding the long knife. Meng Tiandong wanted to say something, but Si Ruo forcibly stopped him: "Go back and mobilize the remaining blood guards to come over and respond."
Meng Tiandong was silent for a long time before nodding in agreement. An Ran only said one sentence: "If you don't treat me as a brother, you can drive me away."
I turned my head and looked in the direction of the machine city: "How did that coffin escape?"
A disciple of the Xing Palace said: "During the explosion, the coffin was lifted out of the city and landed there."
I looked in the direction of his finger, and there was indeed a deep pit over there that had been smashed by the coffin.
The disciple continued: "At that time, several elders and a group of disciples chased after them and wanted to completely destroy the coffin. Unexpectedly, they fainted inexplicably just when they reached the coffin. At that time, a group of monsters rushed out from the inner city. Servants, they took all the coffins and our brothers into the city."
An Ran asked smoothly: "They robbed people, but you didn't chase them?"
