Among the ruins of the main hall, the dust floating in the air has reached the level of covering the sky.
Half of the white jade pillar stretching between heaven and earth collapsed in the flames and smashed to the ground.
A figure was running in the smoke and dust.
"Well... where are we going?"
Nain clumsily climbed up a pile of ruins, and asked Lid, who was already standing on top.
Visibility is too low, even if you climb to a high place, you can't see clearly.
"I don't know yet... Shhh. Someone is coming."
Other figures ran over from the smoke and dust, and the two sides met each other. When the situation was unclear, the other party cautiously raised their weapons and shouted:
"who?"
"Li De, the lord of Yuxi City, and the maid of the little princess Lanna. What about you?"
Three soldiers in black armor put down their spears and replied:
"Imperial Guards. What the hell... why are you here? Didn't the city lords all leave Xuanqing Palace?"
There was still a bit of vigilance in the soldier's eyes. One of the soldiers suffered severe burns and was bleeding profusely from his arm. Lide glanced at him, turned to the soldier who had just answered, and asked:
"Have you fought against the Dragon Clan? Who is in command now?"
The soldier hesitated and replied:
"The people from the White Guards are fighting the Dragon Clan. The rest... the imperial guards, Jin Yiwei, and Tiance Mansion are all gone. Have you seen our Commander? So far we have not received any orders, nor will we know what to do."
Lid laughed, patted the soldier on the shoulder, and said:
"Of course there is no order. Those few bosses of yours have already escaped to protect the king, leaving you as the queen. Don't look for it, you should run for your lives as soon as possible."
The soldiers glanced at each other, and one of them said calmly:
"Impossible! The Commander has told us many times that if the king is in any danger, we must live and die with everything here. The Commander must be fighting the Dragon Clan somewhere, and we must find him quickly. If we can't find him, We are going to die in this place."
Lid shook his head:
"It's up to you. Bai Yiwei should be the guard directly under Bai Yi Qingxiang Wumi, do you know where Umi is now?"
One of the soldiers replied:
"Not long ago, we met Master Umi at Graeme's mansion. Graeme's mansion is over there, and the most conspicuous building is that. But now that the royal capital is in flames, we don't know if he will go to other places." place. If you want to see him, do so as soon as possible.”
After speaking, one of the soldiers tightened his grip on the gun in his hand again.
He was about eight layers of realm, but now he was like duckweed in the waves.
Lide nodded towards them, and pulled Nayin to run in the direction pointed by the soldiers.
The soldiers supported each other and walked towards the silver-gray dragon sitting high on the ruins of the inner hall.
Crossed the sea of fire, passed through the smoke and dust, asked many soldiers who were fighting independently, and changed their destination several times.
He also staged life and death escape scenes in the Dragon Clan several times. Run across the streets, dodge collapsing houses, and jump deep chasms in the ground.
In the end, Lid was Umi whom he met in a half-collapsed open-air teahouse on the street.
His white robe was stained with dust, and his clothes were tattered in many places. Although he didn't seem to have any injuries, he was still unkempt, and it was obvious that he had run too long here and there. The dark circles under his eyes were very thick, the blood oozing from the cracked lips had dried up, and the grease and dust on his face were mixed together, turning it into a blue-gray color, looking like a dead person in a coffin.
Seeing Lide, Umi was slightly surprised, blinked, and asked:
"Why are you still here? Where's Bai Huang?"
Li De asked Nayin to sit and rest on the chair first, but Nayin couldn't take it easy, and took the initiative to help the wounded white-clothed guard tie a bandage. Lid sat down opposite Umi and said:
"Baihuang don't need to worry too much. When the formation was destroyed, she should have been with the people from Tiance Mansion, and she probably ran with them when she escaped. I came here specifically to find you, and I have some questions to ask you. "
Umi smiled and said:
"It's about this time, if you have something to say, it's okay to say it."
Lied nodded, and asked bluntly:
"Where's Lanna?"
Umi frowned slightly, and asked:
"What are you asking this for?"
Lid let out a breath, put one arm on the wooden table, leaned over, stared into Umi's eyes, and replied:
"Go save her."
Umi shook her head:
"I can tell you. But I hope you don't know. Once you know some things, you will fall into infinite guilt in the future."
"Guilty? I'm really guilty if I don't do anything. Let me tell you this, Umi. If someone came to save her, I would run away immediately. But is there a problem? This night , I witnessed with my own eyes the city lords fleeing in all directions, and the three major military organizations in your royal capital escorting the dog king to flee. Now I have to rely on you, a white-clothed minister, to lead people to fight the dragon clan. I really can't believe that Somebody is going to save her."
Umi sighed, pondered for a long time, and said:
"... Tianyue Mountain. On the top of Tianyue Mountain, there is an inconspicuous manor there. Lanna was locked there. That night, the dragon cart took her there. But when the dragons came in from the barrier, they were divided into Two branches, one came to the capital, and the other went to Tianyue Mountain. Only the continuous supply of blood over there can prevent us from repairing the big formation. So now Tianyue Mountain has become a hell where dragons wander gone."
Umi paused for a moment, then continued:
"No one knows how many dragons there are. It is certain that there are no fewer than those in the capital. Although there should be no such big silver-gray guys, dragons and humans of the same realm, the former rely on their solid skin and huge body. It is possible to have the absolute upper hand. The dragons who came this time, the worst is above the sixth level, there are not a few of the seventh and eighth levels, and there are also some nine-level ones. And now that the dragon chariot is gone, we have no way to send people directly to the top of the mountain. You can only climb up from the foot of the mountain step by step, the degree of difficulty is too great. Unless more than half of the Jin Yiwei are prepared to sacrifice and rush to Tianyue Mountain, it is impossible to rescue Her Royal Highness Lanna."
"Is Tianyue Mountain..."
Lid narrowed his eyes and said to him:
"I also know that this is almost impossible to do, and I don't intend to die with an arrogant attitude. So I have something to ask you next."
Umi stretched out his hand to him and made a gesture of invitation:
"Speaking."
Lied raised his head and said calmly:
"I'm going to the treasury to get some weapons and equipment. If I remember correctly, there should still be a lot of red and yellow clothes in such a big capital... Oh, I mean [He Xun] and [Fortunately]]Two grades of equipment. You should have the right to enter and leave the treasury, and you know where these top-quality equipment are stored? In times of crisis, it’s time to let these decisive weapons see the light of day.”
