Chapter 318 Running away
"Major!!"
Simon III could not calm down anyway. He screamed and ran to the window, watching half of the hotel building burning and continuing to collapse, even his hands shaking on the window frame.
Not only him, but the whole city is in full bloom now.
The giant cannon of the world never fired at the city. Such an accident made the night noise like daytime. Many people took to the streets to exclaim. Others living in the north of the city fled to the center. They didn't know what was going on and just wanted to leave that dangerous place.
Xu Ling did not panic at all, but frowned and said, "Your Majesty, you have to follow me and Gregory. Even the guards cannot trust this time."
Before, the emperor had only contacted the commander of the hunting team and did not contact the guards, because the armed forces in the palace were more eye-catching. If they tried to contact, it might arouse Sergei's suspicion. So now, it is uncertain whether those people are still loyal.
Simon III didn't care about this. He pointed to the burning building in the distance and said, "That's where you live! General and the others are in danger!"
He thought Xu Ling did not recognize what the building was hit by the second company of the World-Destroying Cannon.
Xu Ling shook his head and said, "You don't have to worry about this. The most important thing now is to ensure your safety. Sergey cannons cannons cannons are the only ones that can mobilize them. Now it seems that the invitation to the banquet is a cover to paralyze us. This shelling at night is his real purpose. The person who comes to find you must have acted at the same time."
Simon III wanted to speak but stopped, but seeing that the other party didn't say anything, he forced himself to calm down and asked, "Then where are we going?"
Xu Ling replied in a deep voice: "We have to find a hunting team. Gregory and I can't guarantee your safety alone. We need manpower, otherwise Sergei's people may not be able to beat four-handed if they come."
As if to confirm his statement, there were disputes outside the door.
"You cannot go in, your Majesty did not summon you." Gregory's voice came in through the door.
"Didn't you see what's going on now? Your Majesty's safety must be protected by our guards, Gregorian, you retreat." This is another voice.
"Sorry, I didn't receive this order."
"You are leaving your Majesty's safety alone!"
The two must have been in a stalemate outside.
There were more than one guard who came, but Gregory himself was stronger and the other party dared not act rashly. Moreover, if they were indeed here to protect Simon III, there was no need to fight with this guard.
Xu Ling asked, "Can you hear who is speaking?"
Simon III said: "I recognize this voice as the captain of the guard on duty. I don't know who it is."
“So there is no guarantee that you can trust?”
"No, do you want to drive them away?"
Xu Ling pondered for a moment and shook his head, "If he is willing to act with us, then you can observe it before talking about it."
"good."
Simon III opened the door, and both sides who were still in dispute stopped and bowed to their luggage. Sergei didn't take him seriously, and ordinary guards dared not lose their courtesy.
Xu Ling stood behind him and saw clearly that there were twelve guards in front of him, which was a team of just one team. Gregory's tall body was crossed between the two sides, holding the one-handed axe handle on his waist. If anyone dared to move around, he might take action at any time.
After seeing him, the captain of the guard was shocked and angry: "Why are you here!"
Xu Ling entered the palace several times during the previous negotiations, so he naturally didn't remember these people who were responsible for protecting the safety of the palace, but the other party knew him.
Simon III looked solemn: "Captain, from now on, I will obey Major Xu's command, let's leave here."
The captain of the Imperial Guard was even more shocked and angry.
Whether he obeyed the command or left the palace, he couldn't accept it.
"Your Majesty! We should send you to the underground bunker to hide, the situation outside is very chaotic now."
Simon III frowned and looked at Xu Ling, naturally asking for his opinion.
"No, the person in the underground bunker must know that it is just a suicide attempt when he goes there. We have to follow the original plan."
Xu Ling did not deliberately argue with the captain of the imperial guards, but the situation has changed suddenly. Sergei was in the city and could not perform the scheduled procedures rigidly.
But even though he was not hostile, the captain of the Imperial Guard would definitely not agree. He still had to speak, but he heard Xu Ling say: "You can not obey my command, follow me if you want, and stay if you don't want, but if it hinders our actions..."
His eyes became cold.
"I'll let Gregori beat you up."
?
The guard blinked in ignorance, "You beat me up, why are you talking about me?"
The captain of the Imperial Guard was naturally furious after hearing his words, but Simon III stopped his attack in advance: "Okay, Captain, this is an order, don't say more, we don't have time to waste."
The captain felt aggrieved. His Majesty is indeed unreliable in normal times, but now it is now, how can he listen to the "slander" of an outsider and make a nonsense decision?
To be honest, he hesitated.
Is it necessary to do my duty to be a foolish emperor? Since that guy has said everything, if he doesn't want to, you can leave, or leave?
Forget it, I have collected money and done things. After receiving imperial grain for so many years, I have never encountered any dangerous or difficult things. If I leave when I have something to do, I will feel uneasy.
"Yes, your Majesty."
He finally lowered his head temporarily.
Seeing that this man did not insist on making trouble, his trust in him slightly increased, Xu Ling immediately began to plan the route. Although he knew that the captain of the imperial guards must have a sting in his heart, time is tight now and he is too lazy to care about these small matters.
"Your Majesty, the place we are going to is in the east of the city. I will go out directly from the east gate later. Gregorian, you know the destination, you can lead the way."
He deliberately did not say where he was going to avoid the two or five boys in the guards.
Gregory nodded and said, "Okay."
The group walked downstairs, and the elevator was not a good choice at this time.
The pattern of the team was that Xu Ling and the emperor's personal guards tied him in the middle, and the twelve guards of the imperial guards were scattered on the periphery, and a total of fifteen people ran down with a slam.
However, at this time, Simon III's body size and kidney deficiency body became a drag, and the stuttering speed was very slow.
At this time, Xu Ling couldn't help but blame himself secretly, and he forgot about this when he made the plan. He didn't know if this guy could stand up during the high-intensity trek.
The palace was not in chaos at this time. After all, the bombardment was located in the north of the city, and it was a distance from here. The emperor knew that Sergei had a conspiracy, and others did not know that, and would not panic because of the two cannons.
This situation prevented everyone who went downstairs from encountering many obstacles and came to the gate of the palace smoothly before being blocked for the first time.
"Your Majesty, you can't go out, it's not safe outside."
The palace gate guards led people to block the road, and their eyes glanced at Xu Ling and Gregory.
They are also guards, but they are only responsible for guarding the gate. They are not on the same route as the captain of the guards and cannot control each other.
Simon III said: "It's okay, open the door."
The guard shook his head: "No, I can't do this, unless there is a command from Lord Sergei, we cannot open it-"
Bang.
Before he finished speaking, the others had already flew out and smashed into the booth behind him, and the glass shattered all over the floor.
