Volume 3 Chapter 6 Public Enemy of the People
"What? General Pan Shen ran to kill Xu Rang?!"
Imperial capital, palace.
The prospective princess Caterin sat in the seat where Wang usually works and looked up in shock.
Surprised and confused in her misty eyes, and there is also an innocent person who cannot bear to hurt.
"Did General Pan Shen misunderstand what I mean? I...I didn't say that the king wanted to kill Xu Rang immediately. The king said that if Xu Rang could not be used by us and controlled, he would only destroy him."
Commander of the Central Legion, Yu Chaoxi: "..."
Alliance Daily President, Haruxue: "..."
Is this a big mistake?
In this way, there was no secret order from the king. But after Pan Shen personally committed suicide by killing his treason's father, the Regent, three days ago, he was hit hard and was unconscious, and misunderstood the meaning of the qualifying princess?
"What happened? Explain it to me quickly." Katerlin's face was solemn.
After the Hero Academy defense battle, Wang assigned various defense work within three days. Then Wang himself led an elite team to go to Xiaolong without stopping to interfere with the Noxus, at least he could not let the other party easily take Xiaolong.
At present, the highest decision-making level in the middle imperial capital is Katerin, Yu Chaoxi and Chunxue.
Yu Chaoxi briefly reported that Pan Shen went to kill Xu Rang and was defeated. Then the eldest princess Xun'er suddenly appeared and joined forces with Li Dai'er to rescue Xu Rang.
"Oh, so, Xu Rang was not killed by Shen Pan, because His Highness Xun'er arrived in time, but because he defeated Shen Pan himself?" Katerlin asked, thinking.
"Yes, although I didn't see the battle between the two sides, it should be like this."
"Where is that Yasuo boy?"
"His identity was not found."
Katerin nodded, and was silent for a moment. The mist in her eyes dissipated, revealing a resolute look. She said slowly: "It's over, please help me to launch all the power that can still be mobilized and search for Xu Rang with all my strength."
He paused and said, "If Xu Rang had the possibility of escaping from the imperial capital, then... he would kill him without any hesitation!"
"What?" Yu Chaoxi was shocked again. He was not tall and the hero was Tide Heling Feiz. "Didn't it mean that the king didn't want to kill Xu Rang? Why do you still have to... kill him without any hesitation?"
Katerin sighed and replied that Yu Chaoxi was Chunxue. Chunxue was Chunyu's mother. On the surface, she was the president of the newspaper, but in fact she was the first in charge of Demacia's intelligence agency.
The beautiful woman with a look of 700 or 80% similar to Chunyu frowned and said, "Don't understand? No matter how we deal with Xu Rang, there is a bottom line: we cannot let him fall into the hands of the Noxus."
She is very beautiful, and her tone is gentle when she says these words, but the determination revealed in them is shocking.
As the commander of the Central Army, Yu Chaoxi is very smart and understands the current situation very well. In fact, Chunxue doesn’t need to explain it. He thought about it for a moment and understood it—
Simply put, Xu Rang's existence is like a nuclear bomb, full of unknowns, mystery, uncontrollability, and powerful destructive power with extremely high upper limits!
If Xu Rang is allowed to escape from the imperial capital, it means that he may fall into the hands of the Noxus.
What if the Noxus mastered the use of "using the secret weapon of Xu Rang"? This would be unacceptable to Demacia, who is now on the verge of collapse.
If you cannot control it in your own hands, you can only destroy it. If you may fall into the hands of the enemy, you must...kill it unconditionally!
"I understand." Yu Chaoxi was a man who did more and said less, and quickly took the order and left.
He is under great pressure now. On the one hand, he has to deal with the continuous attacks of the Noxus army outside the imperial capital fortress in the middle lane, and on the other hand, he has to deal with the Xu Rang problem within the imperial capital. At the same time, Yu Chaoxi is very worried about how Wang's progress is going to Longxia.
Chunxue vaguely felt that this was strange, so why did she make such a fuss inexplicably? But as the head of the intelligence agency, her real power was far inferior to that of the commander of the army, and her voice was limited. After hesitating for a moment, she didn't say anything and took the order and left.
After Yu Chaoxi and Chunxue left, Katerlin showed a smug smile on his face, but the smile flashed and she immediately returned to the appearance of a virtuous and gentle princess.
The sky is very blue.
The imperial capital under the blue sky is very chaotic.
The towering fortress exterior wall was constantly eroded by the impact of the black wooden ox and flowing horse in the Noxus camp.
Inside the wall, everyone was searching for Xu Rang, Xun'er and others like crazy.
Because the war against the Noxus was extremely nervous, most of the soldiers were at the fortress city to resist the tide of the Noxus middle army.
As a last resort, Yu Chaoxi tried his best to draw a group of people to pursue Xu Rang, and asked Chunxue to send reporters from Alliance Daily to join the search operation.
It would be fine if only reporters joined in. The problem is that I don’t know which reporter got out of this matter with a big mouth. For a moment, the news of Xu Rang escaping from prison with Xun'er's help swept across the entire imperial capital.
Originally, after the Hero Academy's defense battle, the matter of "Xu Rang is the nameless person" was strictly kept secret. Although there is no wall that does not leak, it is not so fast to reach the ears of the people.
Now, the people of the entire imperial capital know about Xu Rang's existence.
The key is that Xu Rang was described as a "terrifying person like a time bomb with an unknown position, an unknown origin, a nurse on the surface, but actually may have super destructive power." This caused panic among the people of the entire imperial capital.
"Hey, this is really strange..." Chunxue gritted her teeth.
"Mom, is there something wrong?" Chunyu was seriously injured in the battle three days ago and was recovering from the imperial capital.
Chunxue didn't answer the conversation, and she didn't even hear her daughter's problem.
Starting from Pan Shen running to kill Xu Rang, the situation in the imperial capital has gone from being stable as it was originally, and it quickly moved to the brink of chaos and out of control. Looking back, it seems that everything is justified, and it is the result of a series of coincidences, but... it is too coincidental, and too many coincidences, right? It is like a hand pushing behind the back!
Chunxue's mind flashed with the face of the princess Caterin, and then shook her head: "It's impossible... If she hadn't blocked the attack for the king three days ago, the king might have been dead. It must be because I was thinking too much..."
The people of the imperial capital were already under the increasing pressure from the Noxus people and were in panic all day long.
People in fear can really do anything to get rid of fear.
"Find out Xu Rang!"
"Find out and kill him!"
"It's over if he doesn't die. We all want to die together!"
Such sounds kept popping up, and soon swept across the entire imperial capital with wildfires!
There were some voices saying, "Don't be so arbitrary, don't kill the wrong good person."
But when Xun'er personally released the scene of Li Dai'er in order to save Xu Rang, she spread through some unknown channels, and the people of the imperial capital were completely in a rage!
"Treason! This is a total treason!"
"Such a sinner! Why don't you die?"
"Kill her! Kill him! Kill this dog man and woman!"
"This is for Demacia, for justice!"
The power burst out by the angry masses is extremely terrifying. It is not that they have made any substantial contributions in the pursuit of Xu Rang and others, but that the angry people cannot find Xu Rang and Xun'er, and instead start to attack the people who have been friends with Xu Rang and Xun'er.
After the battle ended three days ago, Nini, Robin, Allen, and Sun Adam came to the imperial capital with the large army. He graduated early and prepared to join the army and joined the battle. Because the current situation no longer allowed the students to continue to go to school and then join the army.
As a result, because of Xu Rang's incident, Nini and the other four were inexplicably besieged. If Chunyu had not arrived in time, the four might have been beaten to death by a group. Even so, Nini's face still had a terrifying scar, and she couldn't even cry. Her face was pale, and she could not say anything when she looked at the angry crowd.
The little stuttering Vivian, who first reported Xu Rang's heroic clone, was even beaten by his colleagues in the newspaper. When he ran away, he fell into a water supply canal in the imperial capital without knowing his life and death.
Anger ignited the imperial capital.
"I am so awesome! I'm so arrogant. You're going outside the city to fight with the Noxus people. Why do you hit your own people? Why do you hurt your own people?" Sun Adam's face was covered in blood, his voice was hoarse and crying, and he repeatedly asked, "Why do you want your own people to hit your own people?"
In fact, no one heard Sun Adam's shouting and questioning. No matter how loud his voice is, how can he be more energetic than the emotional crowd?
"This...what is going on? Why did it suddenly become like this?" Yu was also involved in the pursuit of Xu Rang's soldiers.
"Isn't it all because of that boy Xu Rang?" Yun roared angrily, "Why didn't he die honestly? He obediently asked Pan Shen to kill him, isn't everything gone?"
"Shut up, Yun! Do you know what you are talking about?" Yu shouted sternly.
Feng and Xiaoye were silent.
Although I know that part of Yun’s words is an angry word, in the current situation of internal and external troubles, human nature is to find someone to "take responsibility". Not to mention Yun, Feng and Xiaoye also have similar thoughts in their hearts: find Xu Rang and kill Xu Rang to calm the current chaos. At this time, who can still care whether the act of killing Xu Rang is legitimate? If you don’t do anything, the imperial capital will fall and Demacia will perish.
Although the Hero Academy defense battle was won three days ago, it was only a victory in the local battle.
The overall situation in Demacia is currently the lowest point in history, and it is on the verge of collapse, and it can even be said that part of it has collapsed.
Wang's big bet cracked the mask plan and cleared out almost all the insiders in Demacia, but the price he paid for was really too great.
In addition, the birth of Xiaolong made Demacia, who was already extremely weak, have to distribute some of his strength again, go to Longxia to entangle with the Noxus people, and don’t even have a chance to take a breath.
This is League of Legends. Many times, there is no chance to "stabilize" you. The emergence of important resource points one after another. If you don't fight, you will die slowly. If you fight, you may die faster.
Rest and recuperate? Governance without doing anything? Getting married and seeking peace? Nothing exists here.
In the real world, the game pace is getting faster and faster.
Now it seems that in this game world, the pace is faster and suffocating.
Amid the shocking calls of "kill Xu Rang" and "kill the treason of treason", the sun sets and the night comes.
In the basement of a private house in the imperial capital, Xun'er's face was extremely hard to see. Her perception ability was very sharp. When people were underground, they could vaguely hear the shouts and shouts on the ground.
After escaping from prison, the five-man team was unable to escape from the imperial capital, but temporarily lurked in the imperial capital.
It is actually not accurate to say that it is a five-man group, because when Xu Rang was carried to the basement of this house by the boy Nayasu, he saw two familiar faces, the fat Ruer and the Demon Swamp Frog.
"Oh, benefactor!" The fat man Ruer already knew that the Bron who saved him was Xu Rang, so he rushed over and hugged Xu Rang's thighs, "Hello thighs! Please take my knees!"
Xu Rang looked confused.
Xun'er's voice came: "Ruer is an escape expert. He has formulated the way to save you and the route to escape."
