Chapter 45: Conquest of the Yicuilou
rtyard also spans 800 square meters, with some areas built into an open-air training ground. 。For example, there's a large wooden stake in the yard. The stake is forty centimeters thick and three mete...The next afternoon, in a forest outside the southern city of the Imperial Capital, figures appeared one after another. This was the designated location for everyone to log in.
"Everyone is here."
Liu Hai looked at the dense crowd before him and nodded, "Here are the cold weapons you all pre-ordered! The weapons are sorted from number 1 to 163. As for the close-fitting armor, choose it after entering the city!"
163 cosmic citizens experts, each one stepped forward according to their number and took their own weapons, quickly arming themselves.
>
"Not bad."
These cosmic citizens tested their weapons; they were all ordinary bodies now, and in terms of strength and speed, they were not far behind those considered master-level fighters. These weapons could withstand the attacks of even master-level fighters.
"Rest assured, every weapon has been inspected," Liu Hai said. This was specially chosen by Xu Jingming. Having served as a member of the Blood Rain Guard in the Imperial Capital for so long, he was well-acquainted with the local scene and knew exactly where to procure fine weapons.
"Let's go now." Liu Hai looked at everyone after they had fastened their weapons, and immediately led them out of the forest.
First, they walked from the woods onto the official road. After walking more than ten miles along the road, they arrived at the south gate of the imperial capital.
The daily flow of people in and out of the imperial capital is enormous, and almost everyone entering or leaving carries a weapon.
Liu Hai and his group were all dressed in plain clothes issued for the first time, and they all walked on two legs! They were very inconspicuous among the crowd. After paying the entrance fee, Liu Hai led them forward.
"What a huge imperial capital."
"It's been half an hour already." These people felt the vastness of the imperial capital after entering the city.
Liu Hai and Tu Ling, leading their team, finally arrived at a chaotic area. The surrounding buildings were dilapidated, and gang members were everywhere, roaming the streets in groups of three or five.
However, faced with a group of over one hundred people carrying weapons, these gang members watched from afar and did not dare to provoke them.
"Here I am." Liu Hai pushed open the door.
Xu Jingming and Pang Ze were sitting in the hallway chatting idly. At this moment, they saw the door open and both stood up to greet them.
More than one hundred people entered the large house, and the gate was closed.
"I've prepared some wine and food for everyone." Xu Jingming, wearing a human skin mask, looked no different from a normal person, except his expression was a bit stiff. He stood up and said, "Everyone, eat and drink first, the action will be tonight."
All the wine, food and even inner garments were ready. Everything for the operation was well prepared.
……
Night falls.
In a white robe, Pang Ze arrived at the Ycui Tower, shaking his fan and smiling.
"Master, you're here again!" A nimble servant greeted him with enthusiasm. As one of the top three entertainment districts in the capital city, Yicui Tower demanded a high price for its pleasures. Even a cup of tea would cost five taels of silver!
To know the income of a second-rate master, it is generally very difficult to exceed 20 taels of silver per month! It can be seen how frightening the consumption here is!
So anyone who can come to a place like Ycui Tower must be either rich or noble!
Eyingcui Building places great importance on repeat customers. Now, Pang Ze has become a 'regular customer'.
"This is Yicuilou. The courtesans inside are all top beauties. If I could spend a night of ecstasy here in my lifetime, it would be worth dying for." In the distance on the street, there were young men from gangs who looked at them longingly, with envy in their eyes.
"A cup of tea inside costs five taels of silver, and a night to lose your soul The cheapest is at least one hundred taels! That's enough for me to frequent brothels my whole life. Only fools would go in there."
"Can the place in the kiln compare to Yicui Building Do you think those big shots who go in are fools"
Young people argued and envied as one dignitary after another entered.
This is a true money pit! Even the gang's top brass have to grit their teeth before going in once!
"Human beings have an instinct for reproduction, which means their genes contain a desire for the opposite sex. Once this desire is aroused, many people are willing to pay for it. They're even willing to give up all their possessions." Pang Ze took a sip of his drink and watched the performance on the water stage in the distance.
These beauties radiate a hazy beauty, a seductive beauty, and even have an intangible psychological impact that influences people's desires.
"Even the courtesans of Yicui Tower are extraordinary. Some are skilled in the art of psychological seduction." Pang Ze looked admiringly, "Even if their looks score a 90, once a guest is influenced by psychological seduction, in their eyes, they become more than a hundred points, the perfect dream lover."
Even high-ranking officials were obsessed with it, and most of the money earned through corruption or business was poured into this den of extravagance. Pang Ze watched as a wealthy young master, feeling generous, took out a silver note without a word and chose a dancing courtesan.
"And today..."
"All the consumption, all the flowing gold, silver, jewelry and banknotes," Pang Ze smiled, "My brother Jingming and I will gladly accept them!"
*****
"See that"
Well-fed and rested, the group led by Xu Jingming, Liu Hai, and Tu Ling arrived at a riverbank. They gazed into the distance. Xu Jingming pointed to a distant building with brightly hung lanterns, "That's it, that towering structure called 'Yi Cui Lou', that is our target."
All eyes followed them, for the Yicui Tower was a renowned landmark in the imperial capital, majestic and breathtakingly beautiful like a fairyland.
"Follow me."
Xu Jingming had already gathered enough detailed intelligence and was too familiar with the surrounding environment. He led people along the alley, turning left and right, and in just five minutes or so, they reached their destination.
"We leaped directly over the wall in front of us, dashed through this tavern, and charged into the Ycui Tower ahead," Xu Jingming said. "This time, when we raid the Ycui Tower, we must keep it within ten minutes."
Within ten minutes, only one or two squads of the Xueyu Guard arrived. They posed no threat at all.
As time drags on, the number of Blood Rain Guards arriving will increase geometrically! Because reinforcements are coming from all directions!
"Action!"
Xu Jingming gave the order, leading the charge. Three eighth-order Starry Sky lifeforms protected him, forming the sharpest point of the entire team! Following close behind were sixty first-rate experts, while Liu Hai and Tu Ling led one hundred second-rate experts at the rear.
whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!
This tavern, located beside Ycui Building, is also quite spacious and prosperous.
As countless ghostly figures swept across the sky, flashing several times, they surged out of the restaurant's range and dashed straight towards Yicuilou. The guests and guards in this restaurant were so scared that their hearts skipped a beat; they didn't dare to interfere at all.
These fierce warriors are the ones who stormed into Ycui Tower.
"The Imperial City, someone dares to invade Ycui Tower"
The people in the restaurant couldn't believe it.
"Enemies!"
The Yicui Building was surrounded by black-cloaked guards on all sides, and the edges were also hidden with mechanisms. The entire imperial capital knew that the 'Yicui Building' was the most dangerous but also the safest place.n Evolution Method (Advanced 18%) (Practice time 602 days, cannot be improved)Body: 195Skills: Gunmanship (Tier 3 46%), Footwork (Tier 3 5%), Shield Technique (Tier 3 32%)Basic combat power: 4680Actua...
