Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 1233 - 550 Vermilion Capital City, Imperial Purple Forbidden City_3
["Overestimating your abilities, huh? You took over from the White Elephant Demon and immediately flew towards the Forbidden City, the seed of Yanjing."]
[You knew the White Elephant Demon would follow behind you, and without turning your head, you said, "First, the Bodhisattva sent you to Penglai Immortal Island not to topple the Evil God but for the sake of Yama God."]
[Second, no matter how powerful the Evil God is, as long as you arrive, there will definitely be a glimmer of chance to overthrow the Evil God. The key lies in whether you and your fellow disciple can seize that faint chance."]
[The White Elephant Demon understood what you meant by ’the first’, but it racked its brains and could not comprehend ’the second’, and could only pretend to understand, nodding continuously.]
[The Imperial Purple Forbidden City occupies an extremely vast area as a whole, with numerous palatial buildings, which can be divided into the Outer Court and Inner Court.]
[According to the Vermillion Geography Records, the Outer Court contains three major halls, where the emperor holds significant ceremonies, while the Inner Court comprises the three rear palaces, and the eastern and western six palaces, which are the living quarters of the emperor, empress, and concubines.]
[Within the Inner Court, there are Buddhist architectural structures like the Mysterious Dome Palace and Central Orthodox Hall, and in the Imperial Garden behind the Inner Court, there stands ’Qin An Hall’, the only Daoist Treasure Hall in Yanjing.] 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
[The sky was growing dark, yet the lights within the Imperial Palace were blazing bright.]
[You and the White Elephant Demon landed at the main entrance of the Imperial Palace, where you saw throngs of Extreme Evil Imperial Guards before the Meridian Gate.]
[To your surprise, these Imperial Guards were quite formidable. Although they were still far from demi-god level, compared to ordinary humans, each one was a master among masters.]
[Merely hundreds of the Imperial Guards could easily crush any of Sakura fall’s armies, demonstrating the mighty power of Vermilion State.]
[The Imperial Guards ignored you, brimming with Malice, but showed overt hostility towards the White Elephant Demon, drawing their swords for a confrontation.]
[Enraged, the White Elephant Demon swung its hammer in a sweeping rampage, turning the Imperial Guards before the Meridian Gate into a pile of corpses.]
[You tried to possess several of the guard bodies but did not retrieve any useful memories.]
[It wasn’t until you possessed the shells of two leading guards that you gained some fragmented memories.]
[Piecing together their memories, you learned of the specific layout of some of the halls within the Imperial Palace.]
[You and the White Elephant Demon did not cross the Red Water Bridge to the Outer Court’s three halls but instead used the cover of night to head towards the east side of the Imperial Palace. According to the memory of the leading guards, the residence of books within the palace, ’Wen Yuan Pavilion,’ was located here.]
[You aimed to find the Librarian who told you about ’Emperor Wu’s Daily Notes,’ but since you had no idea where the descendants of the Daily Life Officers were, you could only try your luck at this royal repository of books, Wen Yuan Pavilion.]
[Wen Yuan Pavilion was located behind Wen Hua Hall, which, according to the memory of the leading guards, was the place where the Crown Prince resides and studies.]
[Emperor Wu, who shared the same lifespan as heaven and earth, has outlived one Crown Prince after another since the founding of the empire, yet not a single one of them dared to rebel.]
[It can be said that the status of the Vermilion Crown Prince is even less than that of some favored concubines.]
[At the moment, lights shone brightly in Wen Hua Hall, and through the silhouettes on the door’s paper windows, one could see someone reading by candlelight through the night...]
[Are you planning to ambush the guards outside the hall and make a night visit to Wen Hua Hall, or will you go around the hall to Wen Yuan Pavilion?]
Lin Xun squinted his eyes.
All ordinary monsters in the Imperial Palace had fallen into Extreme Evil, acting only according to their instincts and subconscious memories from their past lives.
However, this person reading by candlelight in the night likely had something special about them.
