<Episode 79 Escape Attempt (2)>
The entrance to the underground gold house was literally a place of chaos.
Due to the sudden collapse of the Invincible Geum Jade the Geumui Committee members of the Saseonbu were in confusion.
If Yuk Cheon-ho and Lim Gyu-wol the head of the firing squad had been there the command system would have been alive and they would have tried to resolve the situation somehow but right now they were only focused on finding out whether there were any escapees from the underground gold prison.
Meanwhile an even more embarrassing situation occurred.
that
‘Uh…how…’
Mak Myeong-ho the commander of the firing squad was not only nervous but was lying down in a cold sweat.
In front of him was a being that he could not dare to look at.
An old man in a golden dragon robe leaning on an ornate throne in a palanquin looking very ill and haggard.
That existence is
‘Does His Majesty live here?’
It was the emperor.
When the emperor who ruled this country came to reign in person Cheonho Mak Myeong-ho’s mind was burning completely white.
Even so it was the worst situation in the history of the division. His mind was confused as to how to resolve this matter and he had no idea what to do.
Then the emperor’s voice was heard.
“If it’s red smoke does it mean that the Infinite Jade has collapsed?”
“…That that…..”
Cheonho Mak Myeong-ho was so nervous that he could not answer properly.
Then someone next to me urged me.
“Can’t I answer straight?”
Cheonho Mak Myeong-ho’s eyes shook at the weighty voice.
As soon as I heard it I immediately knew who it was.
There were two bodyguards and close associates who officially assisted the emperor.
Among them he was the most widely known and the one who was no different from his immediate superior.
“Go ahead and answer the question.”
“That’s right! “The Infinite Golden Prison has collapsed.”
Mak Myeong-ho’s face lying face down became tearful.
Now that His Majesty the Emperor has come here in person the settlement is over.
Even if we manage to get it resolved we will be held accountable for this situation.
There was a high probability that his head would be blown off or else he would be sent home or imprisoned in a golden prison.
As he suffered from imagining what would happen in the future the emperor’s voice was heard in his ears.
“That means someone attempted to escape from prison. Has anyone come out?”
“Oh I don’t have any. God was guarding the entrance but there was no sign of anything like that until the red smoke started rising. Please believe me.”
“There was an attempt to escape from Infinite Prison but no one came out?”
“That’s right.”
“hmm.”
Myeong-ho’s lips were burning at the sound of a worried voice.
He made sure that no one escaped while he was watching.
No it shouldn’t have been there.
That way even if he is held accountable his life will be preserved.
Then the emperor opened his mouth.
“Seongbaek do you think that since the Infinite Penitentiary has collapsed there will be no escapees?”
“If Mugan Geumok had collapsed those who attempted to escape would also have fallen to their deaths when the ground collapsed.”
“Are you sure?”
“I can’t guarantee.”
“Why is that so?”
“The people imprisoned in the Infinite Prison are people who cannot let their guard down at all. As your Majesty knows this is a place where there are some strange monsters who continue to live even though they have not eaten anything for decades. “You can’t ignore variables.”
“It’s a variable…”
“…”
“Seongbaek.”
“yes. your majesty.”
“Out of all the people in the Infinite Golden Jade or in this entire palace how many people can deceive you by claiming that they are martial artists?”
The emperor’s question was answered without the slightest hesitation.
“I don’t have any.”
“does not exist?”
“That’s right.”
He showed great confidence.
Then the emperor raised the corner of his mouth and said:
“If you decide how long will it take to tour the entire imperial palace?”
“A triangle would be enough.”
“If you do it go.”
“Yes Your Majesty…”
“By Jim’s side he and Gwak Tae-gam of Daenae Haengchang are there. Nothing to worry about. Rather if there had been an attempt to escape from Mugan Geum Prison it would not have happened accidentally in a short period of time. “You never know so hurry up.”
“….I accept the orders of His Majesty the New Gususeok!”
-Sureuk!
As soon as he finished saying those words the figure of Gu Seong-baek disappeared.
* * *
Mu Qingyun looked with interest at the hand of the nine-blooded and six-blooded Tanbaekhe that was sticking out of the rest of the pot.
He could see it with his ears open.
That strangely shaped wave that spread out from Dambaekha’s hand.
Mo Gyeong-un could see that this strange form of energy in her was the same as the one he had tried to use on himself in Infinite Geum-ok.
But at the time she thought what the hell is this?
But as this energy flowed in all directions interesting results arose.
This seemed to trick the target by stimulating their senses more than anything else and they all fainted.
‘….sound. The form of energy must be Gugyeol.’
I don’t know the exact structure but I guessed it based on the shape.
Thoughts are repeated regularly.
And that repeated thought becomes a stimulus and deceives the other person’s senses.
That is a kind of suggestion.
‘That’s fun.’
The corner of Mu Kyung-un’s mouth twitched.
Then I heard someone’s voice.
-What was that just now?
It was a young man.
She was surveying the situation from the air and decided that things were awry and came down to help.
But suddenly the warriors of the Xiyu Department and the eunuchs of Xichang fainted and were puzzled.
-well. I don’t know exactly either. It seems like some kind of allusion.
-suggestion?
-yes. I saw it before in her grandfather’s book. If you repeat this by stimulating it with a sound or sight…
-Park!
“Fuha.”
At that time Dambaekha’s face popped out from the leftover container.
Not only she but Seonghwa Ryeongju who was holding on to her leftover food couldn’t hold back and pushed her face up.
“Hahaha.”
“Are you okay old man?”
Nie Chun asked the Seonghwa Spiritual Lord.
No matter how much I taught her how to hold her breath it would have been even more difficult for her to hold on because she was old and had not learned martial arts.
“It’s okay…it’s okay. Haha…haha.”
To Nie Chun’s question Seonghwa Ryeongju answered with a pale face and a nod of her head.
To be honest the smell of leftover food and holding my breath were all difficult but I gritted my teeth and held on.
At that time Mok Gyeong-un approached the six-blooded Dan Baek-ha who was catching his breath and spoke.
“Why don’t we just keep using the tactic from before?”
“How do you mean?”
“If the method is a type of suggestion it would be possible to deceive the other person’s perception so wouldn’t it be possible to make them accept it as if they didn’t exist in the first place?”
‘!?’
Hearing Mo Qingyun’s words the six-blooded Danbaekha’s eyes widened.
She never told Mo Qingyun about this method.
No she had no reason to say anything in the first place.
But how did the woodworker know that this was a kind of suggestion?
I was puzzled but then someone appeared.
-Sureuk!
The person who came to their side was So Ye-rin the sixth-ranking queen who had changed her outer robe into the clothes worn by court ladies.
Seeing that he even had a black mask in his right hand it seems like he was trying to hide his identity and use force.
She said as she looked at the stunned paramilitaries.
“You used a phantom mirror?”
“yes. As expected Sojeo also knows. “I received it directly from the Master.”
“okay. “I think it would be more helpful to use the Hwanui Mirror rather than hiding in the leftover container.”
“…That’s difficult.”
“Why?”
“I have not learned the innate ability to belong differently from his blood relatives so I cannot use allusions one after another. “By consuming the blood of spirit creatures my source energy has increased and I am able to reach this level but it is difficult to continue using it in one day.”
“ah…..”
So Ye-rin nodded her head as if she understood this.
Her flesh-and-blood simplicity spoke to her like that.
“Or how about you use a mirror?”
So Ye-rin said as if she was embarrassed by her words.
“Even if I want to write I can’t.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“Hwan Ui-gyeong said that because my father was still the lord of Soseong he could not receive the teachings from his grandfather. So I don’t know how to do it either.”
“ah!”
At her words Dambaekha actually let out an exclamation.
Why did you do that?
“I’m really happy. It seems that it was only for this day that he passed on this skill to his teacher. “I have the opportunity to return the favor I received from his blood descendants.”
“Flesh and blood…”
“Before I leave here I will inform you of the fate of Lord Hwan.”
“….thank you. I think you should hurry before then. Since the search team at the middle gate is all unconscious they will soon notice and focus all their search power here.”
“All right.”
After closing the lid of the leftover container again they quickly set off.
Since you passed the middle gate if you hurry and reach the south gate of the outer castle your chances of being able to get out are higher.
Pulling the cart like that they sped up even more.
Since So Ye-rin was on the ground and Cheong-ryeong was in the air watching the surrounding reconnaissance there was no problem with the movement path itself.
They moved without difficulty gradually getting closer to the south gate.
But it was a car that had been moving for a long time.
-Daldaldaldal!
-Shudder!
Mok Gyeong-un who was pulling a cart suddenly stopped.
Suddenly Mu Qingyun stopped the cart and Mengwu Ruo and Nie Chun also stopped and asked in puzzlement.
“My lord. “Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
“…..It’s coming.”
“What do you mean by that?”
-Park!
At that time the flesh-and-blood brisket that was hiding in the leftover container suddenly opened the lid and jumped out.
She took on the Blood Jade Qi modifier as her alert expression filled her face.
Danbaekha looked in the northwest direction and swallowed her dry saliva.
It’s been a long time since I felt this stimulated.
“hey. Babies. “Hide with the little old woman.”
“yes?”
-Sureuk!
While they were puzzled So Ye-rin the Sixth Heavenly Tiger appeared in front of them her face covered with a black cloth.
So Yerin was already drawing her sword.
“Six thousand?”
Mara Hyeon the masked member of the Golden Guard was also puzzled by their reaction and asked.
Then So Ye-rin waved her hand back and spoke hurriedly.
“Mara Cheonho. Go away. hurry!”
No sooner had she finished speaking.
-Gooooooooo!
The energy around her became heavy enough to make it difficult for her to breathe and for a moment Mara Hyun’s legs began to sway as if her shoulders were being crushed.
‘What the hell is this…..’
This wasn’t just the case.
Meng Wuyue and Nie Chun’s expressions were also distorted by the tremendous pressure.
‘this!’
‘What energy?’
An unfathomably gigantic energy enveloped the entire area and the two felt their hearts beating violently.
-thud! thud! thud! thud!
Their eyes slowly turned to one place.
-Jump jump jump!
A handsome middle-aged man with thick lines appeared there wearing a black beer suit and a gold belt.
So Ye-rin’s eyes trembled violently when she saw the handsome man walking behind her.
‘Ah…of course.’
The worst situation that I could have imagined happened.
The Geumuiwi in that black beer suit was the person who stood at the top of the Geumuiwi as a practitioner along with the Northern Jin warrior Hyeonsun.
Geumuiwi Namjin warrior Seongseongbaek.
He guards the emperor and is the best expert in the palace. He is called this in martial arts circles.
Yukcheon (六天) King of the Northern Wave.
“Three people climbed over the wall. “I don’t think you need to look at it.”
-Sreung!
A master at the level of a great master who occupied one of the six heavens the pinnacle of the martial arts world in the central plains was now drawing his sword at them.
