Path of The Dragonborn

Chapter 1088: Break into the palace

Heliga can imagine how furious Kane will be when he knows all this-although Vita may have expected this, after all, she is in contact with Kane on behalf of the association. Therefore, bearing this anger is also part of her responsibility in a sense. Heliga wasn't worried at all. After all, he was the apostle of the association, and he shouldn't be troubled by Kane's incompetent rage.

After a little understanding of this point, Heliga decided temporarily that it was a good choice to observe and probe around the imperial capital first. Vita has made it clear that the follow-up plan is to go to the imperial capital. Since she is here, what's wrong with collecting some information by the way? Decisively, Heliga first decided to talk about the intelligence in the city. He drank the potion that can eliminate his own breath, while maintaining the illusion technique that diverts people's attention elsewhere, he walked in the streets of the imperial capital with a little fairness.

"Count down the ten sins of the late Prime Minister Osborne's policies... Interview with Kane: Awakening the tradition and elegance of the imperial aristocracy... The battle situation in the western part of Lamar State is advancing steadily..." Heliga read the latest "Empire Times" The title of the first issue of the guided tour felt funny inside-it seems that the media has been completely controlled by Kane, and it is difficult to get a little bit of news from the newspaper.

The prosperous Heimdall was not affected by the civil war at first glance, but in fact, the noble army's garrison here has strengthened patrols. The gendarmes of the imperial capital in twos and threes walked by from time to time, and when they saw some sneaky people passing by, they unreasonably stopped them to make things difficult; Balfram Palace seemed to be heavily guarded, and the two The much larger mecha soldier that Heilijia had seen before stood there-I think it should be the new type of mecha named "Giant" mentioned in the intelligence.

After that, Heliga went to the dojo of "Van der Flow" again-it seemed that it was not affected, only twos and threes of students trained there. But this time Heliga didn't see "Thunder God" Mateus or "Wind Imperial Front" Oliya. These first pass students at the left and right level were inconvenient to bother so they had to leave.

"But... "Thunder God" was relieved from the guard of the Emperor's side. This was expected... but after that, he didn't know where he went. Did you hide, or was entrusted by your majesty to do other things? Heilija thought about this, and started to sort out clues again-depending on the situation, the imperial capital has indeed greatly strengthened its guard. I am afraid that it will also impose a curfew in some urban areas at night depending on the situation. The noble army soldiers staying here seem to be everywhere. Especially the elites drawn from Lamar State. And indeed there is no emperor in the palace.

"Do you want to take a risk like this..." Heliga fell into hesitation. He can be sure that if he can find a way to sneak into the Karel Palace in the suburbs of the imperial capital at this time, and can avoid talking with the emperor, he will definitely get a lot of information and news that he usually can't get. However, although it is not difficult to sneak in, the noble coalition forces should not be aware of anything, otherwise they might do something further to the royal prisoners. In this case, things are beyond his control.

After thinking about it, Heliga decided to take a risk-Karel has never been to the palace before, and there is no pressure on the defense in the conventional sense. There is only one road leading there, and other directions. All are natural dangers that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. But this also means that no one is patrolling in these directions or whatever, even if there is, it is definitely not as tight as the direction of the main gate of the palace.

Therefore, Heilijia came to several places outside the palace-he did not get a top view of the palace, so he could only judge the important observation points through experience. After about an hour of selection, he selected some areas to set up a monitoring circle and a transfer circle. If necessary, he can use these to play peekaboo with the defenders here.

It is not difficult to sneak in without attracting the attention of the defenders and patrols. But—Heliga didn’t accidentally see that at the door of the room where the emperor was, there were two masters from the noble army standing with their hands. Each of them had good strength; and inside the room, there were several An officer named an attendant, who is actually a watcher-in this case, if you want to talk to the emperor, you can't keep these people down.

However, although Heliga has the ability to do this easily-but this also means that no matter if he kills these guards or knocks them unconscious, he will definitely be discovered by the noble coalition people afterwards and extremely It is possible that there has been a certain degree of communication with the emperor. Now that Duke Kane has suffered successive disadvantages, a little bit of trouble may cause him to overreact-if he changes his previous attitude towards the royal family because of this, it will not be worth the loss.

Therefore, Heilijia did not act rashly, but continued to wait patiently. In the end, an opportunity he thought was worth a try appeared.

Prince Cedric seemed to be someone who wanted to see him—he was taken out of the house by several soldiers. Heliga clearly judged by perceptual magic-at this moment in the room, there are only two people, the emperor and the imperial concubine, and another close soldier. Mayor Regnitz is not here...but Heliga didn't come to him originally. Therefore, as long as I can personally confirm his safety from the emperor later, I can take it as a reassurance to bring back to Macias.

Heliga quietly used the dragon roar "phantom illusion"-and then used this dragon roar to avoid contact with any material characteristics, and easily passed through the roof to the upper floor of the emperor's room. Afterwards, he saw the right time, and while crossing the ceiling again to the inside of the emperor's room, he used sleep and forgetting techniques on the soldier-if there was only one person, Heliga could still be easily subdued.

When all this was done, the emperor and the princess hadn’t even noticed it—Heliga secretly thanked this because he had time to put a soundproof barrier in the room, because the moment he saw him, no matter what Whether it was the emperor or the princess, they all uttered a loud exclamation-and the soldier who had been hit by Heliga's special illusion still stood there quietly, but his eyes were hollow, as if he hadn't seen anything.

"Your Majesty... the situation is special." Heliga was also temporarily unable to pay attention to the so-called etiquette-he eagerly said to the emperor: "May I ask the officers who left with your Highness... Do you know when they will return? ?"
