"Dear First Class Citizen, please stay at home during this period." "The town is currently under lockdown. Anyone who goes out will be regarded as a cultist of the White Night God and will be severely punished by the group army." "If you need daily necessities, please contact the soldiers patrolling nearby directly. If you pay appropriate compensation, you can purchase them from them." The next morning, the sun was shining brightly. Not long after breakfast, Su Chen heard a rapid knock on the door. When he opened the door and took a look, he found that standing outside the door was an imperial officer with whom he had gotten along before and had a fairly good relationship with him. Hearing the words from the other party's mouth, Su Chen's eyes flashed with surprise. "What happened? Why such strict control suddenly?" The imperial officer looked left and right, coughed, and the two groups of soldiers following him immediately retreated. When there were no outsiders, the imperial officer whispered: "The White Night God Cult is causing trouble. I can't reveal too much about the details. It's a military secret."
"Don't worry, Mr. Su. I've already said hello to the soldiers nearby. They won't make things difficult for you." "I have official duties, so I can't talk too much. I will go on my mission first. There are still many families that need to be notified." Su Chen nodded and looked at the Imperial officer's leaving figure, his expression always maintaining the right amount of doubt and thought. It wasn't until he closed the door that his face relaxed and a smile appeared on his lips. Things turned out as expected, even better than expected. Strict regulation on a large scale is probably a bad thing for other people. But for me, it is really the best thing. As a result, there wouldn't be many civilians wandering around on the streets on weekdays. Taking matters into your own hands can save you a lot of worries, and you don't have to worry about accidentally injuring innocent people. As for whether those imperial soldiers were innocent? Su Chen has such a good relationship with these officers, but he has inquired about their style. It can be said that they are just a group of wolves and tigers, doing everything except good things. Of the ten imperial soldiers, nine were picked out and shot. There might be one or two innocents, but only five were shot. That would inevitably leave out the innocent scum. The Black Empire is not a good one. All its legions have massacred the empire's towns in order to put an end to the White Night Sect's achievements. If it weren't for the town that Su Chen was in at the moment, the White Night God Sect would not have gotten out of control and would still be a rat in the sewer. I'm afraid the army group has now begun preparations to massacre the entire town. Of course, generally speaking, Su Chen, as a first-class citizen, would definitely be notified in advance to evacuate. It is said that everyone will be massacred, but in the end, the real dignitaries will always be able to escape, and the dead will be ordinary people like weeds. "They should have discovered the white mantis and probably even killed it."
Su Chen leaned against the door, looking thoughtful. It might be time to start the next plan. not far away. The old magician Joseph suddenly felt a chill in his back. Why did it seem like someone was plotting against him? … Boom——! In a deserted corner at the edge of town. A violent explosion suddenly erupted. Thick clouds of sparks shot straight into the sky, and billowing black smoke spread into the distance. Everyone in the city could clearly feel the ground shaking. The patrolling soldiers nearby were stunned and knocked to the ground by the shock wave. I just feel that the world in front of me has become blurry, and I have entered a state of confusion! "Where is that place?!" The general who was making arrangements in the center of the town suddenly changed his expression and turned his head to look. The next second, without the need for the general to issue an order, large numbers of soldiers approached the explosion area, trying to find out what was going on. Flames enveloped several deserted alleys. Several soldiers came nearby, and the scalding hot wind swept over them, scorching the hair on their faces and giving off a burning smell. Everyone looked at the dark ruins in front of them in shock. They looked at each other speechlessly and did not dare to move forward. The temperature is really too high. Under such a temperature, even a strong person at the level of a great knight will be severely burned. "It smells of magic." "It's not gunpowder, and it's not a magic bomb." "Someone used some kind of high-level magic to create this explosion." Some imperial magicians came to this conclusion. The expressions of everyone present suddenly changed again. Could such a large-scale explosion be caused by man? If a group of magicians worked together to create such an effect, that would be pretty good. But if a magician casts some extremely high-level magic on his own, it finally produces such an effect... That would be too dangerous! If everyone here adds one piece, they may not be the opponent of the other party!
An existence of this level can already be regarded as the level of a great mage! Even in the entire empire, it is difficult to find a few such beings. They are generally guarded in extremely critical fortresses. For example, at the Border Fortress not far away, there was the one who disappeared not long ago. War Magician, Joseph! Many imperial officers who learned about this situation looked at each other with incomprehensible expressions. They all knew that until the end, Joseph was not found in the extensive searches in the past few months. This war magician just disappeared from the face of the earth and never appeared in the sight of the empire again. Some people suspected that he betrayed the empire, and some people suspected that he was a pawn of the White Night Cult from the beginning. But the current mainstream opinion is that this war magician is one of our own and has made many contributions. He is definitely not a spy of the White Night Cult. Most likely, he encountered some particularly dangerous situations and was forcibly abducted. As for who kidnapped the war magician? There were many public opinions in the empire. Some people said that it was the spy chief of the White Night Cult, but the middle and high-level officials in the group army had a default answer in their hearts. ——Except for those celestial beings, who could take the war magician away so quietly? Thinking of this, many people felt that this kind of magician was probably in danger. After all, the personalities of these celestial beings who protected the empire were really not good, and they did not regard the people in their small world as human beings at all. Killing them at will was also commonplace. Unexpectedly... At present, there were traces of suspected activities of the war magician Joseph. "Are you sure it's him?" The general arrived at the scene and looked at the charred ruins in front of him, his expression was extremely complicated. In the early years, the general and Joseph studied in the same school and had a close relationship. He absolutely did not believe that Joseph was a traitor. But the current situation...how to explain it?
