Reaching out to reach the door of the room, Xu Yicai was about to use force when suddenly his heart shuddered and he quickly retracted his hand.
At that moment, he actually clearly felt a strange magic wave coming from the door of the room.
This ordinary door was actually covered with a magic circle!
If Xu Yi continues to exert force, this magic circle will definitely be triggered.
Xu Yi thought for a moment and stretched out his hand again.
His fingers gently touched the door of the room. Xu Yi found a very weak magic power from his fingers and followed the magic circle on the door to explore bit by bit.
In order to develop qualified magic machinery, Xu Yi has now reached an extremely high level in his research on magic arrays, so he easily detected that the magic array on the door should be a third-level wind magic array - Wind Explosion. Magic circle.
Once this magic circle is triggered, a strong flow of air will flow out of the magic circle.
Although the power of the third-level magic circle is not very powerful, even if it is directly hit by the air flow, it will not kill people, but the air flow of the wind blast magic circle is powerful enough to blow people directly away. Even if they do not die, they will definitely suffer from it. Create.
After checking the door of the room, Xu Yi moved his fingers from the door to the wall, and then used the magic power to explore along the wall.
Finally, it was discovered that in addition to the door, this room was actually equipped with wind blast arrays on the four walls and two windows!
In other words, this small room may not seem unusual now, but it has actually become a small prison!
Xu Yi retracted his probing hand and frowned slightly.
The person who laid this trap didn't seem to want his own life, but just wanted to trap himself here.
But this is in the palace after all, how long can the other party trap him without being discovered
Xu Yi's thoughts turned around and he suddenly understood.
The other party should be coming for His Majesty the King's upcoming summons to him.
It was already around four o'clock in the afternoon when Xu Yi left the office. It took nearly half an hour to travel from the office to the palace and then here. In addition, after waiting here for a while, he had almost arrived at the king's palace. His Majesty informed Xu Yi to summon him at five o'clock.
The person who set the trap did not intend to trap him to death, but just wanted to trap him for a while. It just prevented him from meeting His Majesty the King on time.
Thinking of this, Xu Yi's heart sank.
With his current status, it is very rare to have the opportunity to meet with His Majesty the King. If he cannot arrive on time for such a rare opportunity. That would undoubtedly leave a very bad impression on His Majesty the King.
Even if Xu Yi could explain it afterwards, he might not have the chance to see His Majesty the King again, and even if he did, His Majesty the King might not believe him.
In any case, missing this time will bring a very serious blow to Xu Yi's plan.
Time was running out. Although Xu Yi still had many questions in his mind, he had no time to think about it further. He glanced at the still closed door of the room and snorted softly. He slapped it with a palm.
A magical force that was countless times more powerful than the previous exploration was used from the palm of his hand, and instantly turned into countless trickles and enveloped the entire door of the room.
The wind blast array arranged on the door was completely covered by Xu Yi's magic power in the blink of an eye, but there was no trace of being triggered at all. Instead, it was dissipated little by little under the influence of Xu Yi's magic power.
After a while, a faint light cyan light flashed on the door. Then a wisp of breeze blew through the air, blowing Xu Yi's hair slightly.
Xu Yi showed a smile. The wind blast array on the door had been directly destroyed by him and could no longer be triggered.
Without the obstruction of the Wind Explosion Array, Xu Yi only needed to aim at the wind element of the door and release a tiny fan, and the pin blocking the door would be cut off.
With a "squeak" sound, the door to the room opened.
"Relying on the third-level magic circle is like trapping me. It's too disrespectful." Xu Yi snorted lightly and stepped out.
However, as soon as he walked out of the door, several figures suddenly flashed past the door and stopped in front of Xu Yi.
"Who is he? How dare you act so arrogantly in the palace! Catch him!"
With an angry shout, three strong men wearing palace guard uniforms rushed towards Xu Yi.
Seeing these three guys rushing over fiercely, Xu Yi hesitated.
It's no problem to destroy the trap. But if you take action against the palace guards, I'm afraid there will be real problems.
However, the situation at this time no longer allowed him to hesitate. Three palace guards had already rushed in front of him. If he did not resist, he would only be caught.
Xu Yi sighed in his heart. Raising his hand, he was ready to release magic.
"stop!"
At this moment, a soft drink sounded.
The hands of the three palace guards were about to touch Xu Yi's body. After hearing this soft drink, they immediately stopped and remained motionless.
Xu Yi was stunned for a moment, took two steps back, then dissipated the condensed magic power, looked at the place where the sound came from, and was stunned again.
The man who suddenly appeared and stopped the palace guards turned out to be Harvey.
Sensing Xu Yi's gaze, Harvey nodded to Xu Yi, then turned to one of the guards who, judging from his clothing, should be the leader of this group of palace guards, and asked sternly: "What's going on?"
The commander of the guards immediately saluted Harvey and replied loudly: "Reporting to Mr. Viscount, a few of us happened to be patrolling near here. We heard an unusual noise and rushed over, and then we saw..." The commander of the guards pointed. Xu Yi. "He broke out of this room. We don't know this person. We think he is an assassin, so we are going to arrest him and interrogate him."
Harvey frowned, thought for a moment, and waved his hand: "Okay, you don't have anything to do here, let's go."
The guard commander hesitated: "Sir Viscount, but he..."
Harvey's eyes widened: "He is a guest of His Majesty the King. Do you still need me to explain to you?"
The guard commander trembled, stood up straight quickly, and shook his head solemnly.
"Why don't you leave quickly? What are you doing standing here?" Harvey shouted again.
The guard commander glanced at Xu Yi and hurriedly left with several other guards.
After they were all gone, Harvey walked to Xu Yi with a sullen face and asked in a low voice: "President Xu, what's going on?"
Xu Yi thought for a while and described what he saw after entering the palace.
After listening to Xu Yi's story, Harvey frowned, obviously confused. However, he just thought for a moment and then shook his head and said: "There is no time to think about these things now. President Xu, the time is about to be summoned by His Majesty the King. Come with me, and I will take you there." His Majesty the King.
Xu Yi nodded. Follow Harvey and walk in the other direction of the palace.
After walking in silence for a while, Harvey saw no one around him and suddenly whispered to Xu Yi: "President Xu, when I see His Majesty the King later, please don't mention what happened just now."
Xu Yi glanced at him, smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I know this matter is serious."
Harvey nodded approvingly: "President Xu is indeed a sensible person. Let me tell you good news. After reading our results report after these days of testing, His Majesty the King is very satisfied with the results, and is even more proud of you and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce." I will give you a lot of praise. As long as you satisfy him later, he will give you a very generous reward."
Xu Yi laughed: "It doesn't matter what the reward is, as long as His Majesty the King can accept my proposal."
"Then it depends on whether you, President Xu, can convince His Majesty the King." Harvey smiled.
After walking inside the palace for a while, Harvey led Xu Yi to a large garden and stopped.
"I can only send you here. The chamberlain will take you in later, and then you can see His Majesty the King." Harvey thought for a while and whispered again: "Remember, don't Say unnecessary things.”
Xu Yi glanced at him, a little surprised why he was so nervous.
This is a palace after all. Does Harvey really think that what happens here can be hidden from the owner of this palace
Of course, Xu Yi would not express his doubts. Just a slight nod to show understanding.
Harvey then waved to the chamberlain who had been waiting for a long time, explained Xu Yi's identity to the chamberlain, and then the chamberlain signaled to Xu Yi that he could follow him in.
Just as Xu Yicai was about to walk in, he suddenly thought of something and stopped.
After a pause, Xu Yi came to Harvey. He said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Viscount Harvey, since His Majesty the King attaches so much importance to farmland magic machinery, the best way is to let nature take its course without doing anything extra. Otherwise, there will be too many things added. It’s hard to predict what the outcome will be.”
Harvey's eyes narrowed slightly, and his look at Xu Yi suddenly became sharp.
After staring at Xu Yi for a long time, Harvey responded softly in a voice that was a lot cooler than before: "President Xu, since you are a smart person, you should know that many things are related to you. It doesn’t matter, you don’t have the ability to intervene.”
Xu Yi smiled, thinking that Harvey City Mansion was still not deep enough, and after being casually tested by him, he actually revealed his true face that was originally well hidden under the mask.
Of course, it is also possible that he simply doesn't bother to hide anything in front of Xu Yi. In the final analysis, as he said, with Xu Yi's current status and strength, he really does not have the ability to intervene in many things.
So even though he knew that what he encountered after entering the palace today was probably related to the battle between some big shots, and that he was just being used as a pawn, he still had no way to do it, and he couldn't even express it. Any advice.
Of course, Xu Yi doesn't care much about this. Anyway, it has nothing to do with him how these big guys fight with each other. As long as he can achieve his own goal, that's fine.
Thinking of this, Xu Yi shook his head gently, getting rid of all the irrelevant thoughts from his mind and refocusing.
If the goal of creating an industrial system is regarded as a war, then this meeting with His Majesty the King is undoubtedly an extremely important battle in the early stages of this war.
