n

n

nOh no!

n

nHe Chuan did not have time to think about it. The discomfort from his body in reality can already be felt on his body in the deduction world, forcing him to stop this deduction.

n

nHe returned to reality accompanied by a severe feeling of exhaustion, and another wave of intense dizziness hit him.

n

n“Phew…”

n

nHe Chuan lay sprawled on the bed and relaxed his body to alleviate the side effects of the deduction.

n

nIn the end, in just a few breaths, he fell into a deep sleep while he was reviewing all the details from the deduction world.

n

nBy the time he regained consciousness, it was already noon the next day.

n

nRecalling all the things that happened yesterday, he could not help but sigh.

n

n“Looks like my physical fitness isn’t strong enough. I couldn’t hold on for more than a few minutes while deducting. If I could hold on for a while longer, I might be able to find the reason why I couldn’t hold off the beast tide.”

n

nHowever, there were still some gains from the deduction this time.

n

nFor example, letting him know that black iron refined gold couldn’t change battle’s outcome.

n

nApart from that, they would find an even greater challenge from the strange beasts.

n

nThose strange beasts with elemental abilities were truly too terrifying.

n

nEven if He Chuan were to go up personally, he might not be able to defeat them easily.

n

n“Looks like I can’t put my energy into creating new equipment. I have to prioritize guarding against stronger strange beasts.”

n

nThe new army of awakened ones already had the means to continuously increase their strength.

n

nThe only thing missing was an expert who could oversee the entire battlefield.

n

nAs long as they helped them get rid of those strange beasts that they couldn’t deal with, it wouldn’t be impossible to guard against the beast tide.

n

nHe Chuan was the perfect candidate.

n

nThe cultivation speed of the Tyrannical True Cultivation Manual was much faster than the guiding technique.

n

nWith the knowledge he had learned in his previous life, he had rapit progress.

n

nAlmost every day, he could make his strength increase in stages.

n

nAs long as he had two more days, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to break through to level three.

n

nHowever, Glory City might not be able to enjoy two more days of peace.

n

n“Time… I have to buy more time.”

n

nHe Chuan closed his eyes and felt carefully.

n

nThe earth seemed to be wailing under the trampling of the beasts.

n

nIt seemed that some of the mutated beasts that had escaped their homeland in the Gobi Desert due to the avalanche had already rushed to the border of Glory City.

n

nHe didn’t know how many of them there were.

n

nNo scouts could bring him any specific information.

n

nHe could only rely on the sharp senses of the awakened ones to judge all of this.

n

nAlthough the error was immense, this was the only method he could rely on.

n

nThe beast tide was about to arrive.

n

nIt wouldn’t be later than in the afternoon.

n

nThe beast tide that was more than ten days ahead of schedule gave him almost no time to develop.

n

nIt was said that plans could not keep up with changes, it now seemed that this was indeed the case.

n

nWith his current strength, he could barely resist the beast tide.

n

nHowever, it was not completely hopeless.

n

nHe Chuan was not discouraged because of this.

n

nAlthough the result of the deduction was the destruction of Glory City.

n

nBut that was only one of the tendencies of the future.

n

nNow, as long as he did not continue the research of black iron refined gold to make equipment, it was very likely that he could change that outcome.

n

nHe had to hurry up and cultivate!

n

nHe Chuan took a deep breath and continued to read the contents of the Tyrannical True Cultivation Manual.

n

nHe was about to cultivate.

n

nHowever, someone knocked on the door.

n

n“Your Highness, something has happened.”

n

nIt was Xu Ke’s voice.

n

nHe Chuan pushed open the door and looked at the heavy expression on Xu Ke’s face. With a thought, he asked.

n

n“Is the Azure Dragon Legion back?”

n

nXu Ke was startled. “Your Highness, how did you know?”

n

n“I guessed.”

n

nHe Chuan chuckled. “Bring me there.”

n

n“Yes, Your Highness!”

n

nXu Ke brought He Chuan to the West Gate of Glory City.

n

nAs soon as they stepped onto the city tower, they saw a large group of people kneeling outside the city.

n

nLin Cheng was confronting the Azure Dragon Marshal with a sullen expression.

n

n“You still have the face to come and beg the City Lord?”

n

n“Back then, when you instigated the entire army, did you think that we didn’t know what you were thinking?”

n

n“Now that you’re being chased by the beast tide, you want to advance and retreat together with Glory City?”

n

n“You really are shameless!”

n

nBelow, the Azure Dragon Marshal snorted coldly.

n

n“Lin Cheng, who are you? How dare you talk to me like that?”

n

n“How dare you offend your superiors Do you know which military law you’ve violated?”

n

nAt this moment, He Chuan and Xu Ke walked to Lin Cheng’s side one after the other.

n

nLin Cheng hurriedly saluted. Even ignoring the Azure Dragon Marshal.

n

nAlthough the Azure Dragon Marshal was very unhappy, he still saluted him.

n

n“The guilty Marshal greets the City Lord.”

n

nHe Chuan looked at him calmly.

n

n“You are no longer a Marshal of Glory City. Don’t you feel embarrassed to call yourself that?”

n

nThe Azure Dragon Marshal knew that He Chuan would say this, so he explained the situation directly.

n

n“Your Highness, you should know that the Crown Prince currently sees you as a thorn in his flesh.”

n

n“What he fears the most is that you will rise again. One day, when you return to the capital, you will snatch back the position of heir to the throne.”

n

n“As early as a month ago, I received a secret letter.”

n

n“The Crown Prince asked me to use the power in my hands to infiltrate the higher-ups of the officials.”

n

n“When you arrive, when the Beast Tide arrives, think of a way to take away the resources and the main army.”

n

n“I’m just a border general. How would I dare to go against the Crown Prince?”

n

n“Betraying you, betraying Glory City, is also a helpless act.”

n

nAfter finishing his words, many people present frowned.

n

nLin Cheng and Lin Ya kept silent. This was a fight for the imperial power. They simply could not interrupt and did not dare to interrupt.

n

nXu Ke’s gaze became unusually deep.

n

nIt was as if he was analyzing the reliability of the Azure Dragon Marshal’swords.

n

nA few seconds later, he moved closer to He Chuan and reminded him.

n

n“Your Highness, this person can not be trusted. If the Crown Prince requests it, then he must have prepared a way out of Glory City. Why would he be forced to come to us by the beast tide?”

n

nHe Chuan looked at him with appreciation. This chief of staff was quite skilled.

n

nHowever, after the Azure Dragon Marshal heard this, he still answered calmly.

n

n“To tell you the truth, I am now the Crown Prince’s abandoned chess. In order to silence me, he accused the entire Azure Dragon Legion of being a rebel army. Now, we really no way out.”

n

nThe Azure Dragon Marshal’s face was full of sincerity. “Your Highness, I know that I deserve to die for my sins and am willing to accept all punishment. However, the 20,000 soldiers of the Azure Dragon Legion are innocent! Please show mercy and give them a way out!”

n

nOh!

n

nHearing this, He Chuan was immediately amused.

n

nThis Azure Dragon Marshal was really not stupid.

n

nHe even knew how to employ in moral blackmail!
