Douluo Continent on the tip of the tongue

Morning court is a daily meeting held every morning in the palace of the Sun and Moon Empire.

The court ministers in the Ming capital have experienced such meetings since the day they took office, and they have lost their novelty.

But today's morning morning seemed particularly different.

One of the reasons was that it was rare for the Imperial Master to attend the morning court.

The last time the emperor's master appeared in a court meeting was a long time ago, so every minister looked at the old man sitting lazily under the emperor and felt a little strange in his heart. Why is this person here?

As for the second reason, it is the content of the memorial presented by the Imperial Prime Minister Zhou Yuan at this moment.

Hanshi will be closed tomorrow, is today the last day of business?

All the ministers are familiar with this restaurant, which aroused great vigilance in the court when it first appeared a month ago. In fact, most of the ministers in the court are regular customers of Hanshi.

As the number of diners at Hanshi increases, these ministers no longer go every day, but only once every three to five. Therefore, not all ministers saw the notice board in front of Hanshi last night.

As soon as Zhou Yuan said this, the officials inevitably fell into a commotion.

"Quiet." Xu Haolong patted the armrest of the throne, his face became slightly solemn.

Why is this cold food always like this?

I have already forgotten about it, but it insists on causing trouble.

close the door?

There are still about three months until Douluo Continent discovers the Sun and Moon Continent.

At this juncture, a restaurant from Douluo Continent suddenly closed, and there is no need to guess what it means.

"I'm afraid these people from Douluo Continent are going back." Xu Haolong's eyes flashed coldly, "Obviously, Sun and Moon cannot let them leave. Although Hanshi has been under our noses, they must still have people in the dark to investigate.

We don’t know how much they have found out about the news, so we would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go!"

"Your Majesty, Holy Ming." Zhou Yuan slightly raised his hand, "I have the same idea. If they leave Sun Moon and return to Douluo Continent, Douluo will definitely know our deployment in advance, which will be detrimental to our plan, and they can find a way to stop them.

Best, if not..."

There was a bit of chill in his eyes, "Then for the sake of my Sun-Moon Empire's grand plan, I can only let their bones be buried here."

As soon as this statement came out, the officials immediately agreed.

Although they like cold food dishes very much, they are all the same, and personal relationships have no meaning in front of such a big event.

Seeing that the ministers all meant this, Xu Haolong nodded, and was about to arrange his manpower to prepare in advance. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a thoughtful look on De Hongchen's face, and his heart moved, "What does the Emperor think of this matter?"

"I?" De Hongchen raised his eyebrows, with a hint of a smile in his eyes, "I go to Hanshi every day, and the food there is really delicious."

As soon as these words came out, there was a faint laughter among the ministers.

Everyone knows that Emperor Shi loves delicious food.

Xu Haolong shook his head helplessly, "Master Imperial, what I'm asking about is the closure of Hanshi."

"That's right." De Hongchen shook his head, "I am just a person who studies soul guidance devices. I don't care about this kind of thing."

Xu Haolong felt relieved and was about to speak when he heard De Hongchen add quietly: "But have you ever thought about why Hanshi had to notify them in advance when it closed?"

As De Hongchen's words fell, the court suddenly fell into silence.

Yes, if Han Shi really wanted to run away, shouldn't he leave without everyone noticing?

Why did it go out of its way to notify us in advance, even a full day in advance?

You must know that one day is enough for the Sun and Moon Empire to deploy manpower and keep them behind.

"Your Majesty, I know this!" It didn't take long before Zhao Zhiyuan's triumphant voice broke the silence, "Generally, if a restaurant is going to suspend operations or close its doors, diners will be notified in advance, so Hanshi will put up notices in advance.

Card…"

"Shut up, you idiot." Ye Changhong couldn't help scolding, "Is Hanshi an ordinary restaurant? Why does it have to abide by the so-called restaurant rules?"

After cursing a few words, Ye Changhong stood up from among the ministers and said, "Your Majesty, I think there is something wrong with this matter. The other party may be planning to ambush us."

"Ambush?" Xu Haolong narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"

"Among the people coming from Douluo Continent, there is at least one who is strong at the Titled Douluo level. This is something we all know. I am not sure who is stronger between a Titled Douluo and a ninth-level soul master. But between the two,

The strength of the two must not be much different. In this case, if the opponent tries his best, it will be enough to severely injure several ninth-level soul masters."

"And this is only the opponent's apparent strength. If the opponent still has manpower outside Mingdu, the casualties in our pursuit may be even more severe. The high-level combat power of our Sun Moon Continent is not as good as that of Douluo Continent. This kind of

If there is any further damage under such circumstances, the consequences will be disastrous.”

Ye Changhong's face was quite solemn, "After such a long time, I think Qi Han and the people behind him must be suspicious of us. Maybe this is a test. They want to see if anyone in the court really knows.

"Liao Hanshi comes from Douluo Continent. If someone knows about it, they can just take action to weaken the high-level combat power of my sun and moon. If they don't know about it, they can leave safely."

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan raised his head and looked at Xu Haolong with a hint of meaning in his eyes.

Yes, Qi Han knew the true identities of the ministers who came to Hanshi for dinner.

The information that Qi Han accidentally revealed to the secret agent named Fang Qing from the Secret Service that time was enough to prove this point.

However, Zhou Yuan and Xu Haolong did not tell any ministers about this matter. They originally wanted to see if they could use the plan in the future, but as Han Shi did not show any abnormality, they almost forgot about the matter.

At this moment, the idea mentioned by Ye Changhong suddenly reminded the two of them.

It was not a temptation as Ye Changhong thought, but an obvious trap!

Han Shi already knew the identities of the ministers, but he still chose to inform the departure time in advance. Wasn't the purpose just to wipe out all the intercepting forces?

What a arrogant guy!

Zhou Yuan and Xu Haolong felt chills in their hearts at the same time.

Facing the entire power of an empire, you still dare to do this. Are all the people in Douluo Continent such lunatics?

This time, it was the empire that was in trouble.

Send a large number of strong men to hunt down?

By then, the empire's high-ranking powerful men will suffer heavy casualties. What will they do to face the Douluo Continent three months later?

Or...just let them go?

Xu Haolong clenched his fists, his eyes full of unwillingness.

Damn it, the empire is so powerful, but there is nothing you can do against them?

"Your Majesty." De Hongchen, who was sitting under Xu Haolong, looked at Xu Haolong's face, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he said with a smile, "I want to know why your Majesty wants to stop Hanshi?"

"The Imperial Master also knows that Han Shi comes from the Douluo Continent. Their personnel must have secretly gathered a lot of information in the Sun and Moon Continent. If this information is transmitted back to the Douluo Continent, it will be very detrimental to us." Xu Haolong explained.

"That's it." De Hongchen nodded, and then changed his tone, "I think your Majesty doesn't need to be so worried."

As he spoke, he slowly turned his head, looked at the person below, and said with a smile, "I would like to ask, how long did it take for the third prince to return from Douluo?"

Xu Jiyun was stunned for a moment, then immediately replied, "Master Imperial, my men and I used the soul guide to accelerate and drove at full speed day and night. It took fifty days."

"Then the third prince thinks, if the Douluo Continent group of people go back, how long will it take?"

"This..." Xu Jiyun frowned and thought for a moment, "Their overall strength is stronger than our original team, but without the soul guide to help accelerate the ship, the efficiency will not be high, and it should take two months at the fastest.

"

"So..." De Hongchen laughed, "When Han Shi arrives at Douluo Continent, there will only be one month left before the sun and moon are exposed to Douluo. How much does Your Majesty think you can do in one month?"

a month…

Xu Haolong's expression softened slightly.

Douluo Continent knew about the situation in Sun Moon Continent one month in advance, which naturally had some impact on the plan.

But compared with the high-level combat power that may be lost by intercepting the opponent, it seems to be acceptable.

"The emperor's intention is... to let the other party leave?" Xu Haolong said, his eyes seemed to be a little moved.

"I don't agree with the emperor's idea."

At this moment, Zhou Yuan suddenly spoke up.

His face was slightly ugly, as if he had thought of something, "Your Majesty, it suddenly occurred to me just now that the people from Douluo Continent may have taken away more than just information."

"There are no soul guides in the Douluo Continent. If they take away various types of soul guides, or even the methods for making soul guides... our advantages will be completely lost. There are countless soul guide academies in the empire, and it is difficult to protect them."

The other party has not gained anything, which is more terrifying than the other party knowing our deployment plan!"

As soon as this statement came out, the officials immediately started making noises.

Xu Haolong's expression also changed slightly.

They live in the Sun and Moon Continent and have long been accustomed to the existence of soul guidance devices, but for Douluo Continent, any inheritance of soul guidance devices has been completely cut off.

Although as the two continents begin to communicate and communicate, it is inevitable that the technology of soul guides will slowly flow into Douluo Continent, but it is definitely not now!

Among the plans formulated by the Sun and Moon Empire, there was a plan to use soul guidance device resources and some low-level soul guidance device production methods in exchange for various precious resources in the Douluo Continent.

According to the intelligence, the price of soul bones in Douluo Continent is much lower than that of Sun and Moon. If a large number of high-end soul bones can be exchanged for a large number of high-end soul bones using various low-level soul guidance device production methods that have been eliminated or cannot be used, it will be completely expensive.

earn.

But if the soul guide technology flows into Douluo Continent in advance...

no!

Xu Haolong's expression suddenly turned sinister.

No one can stop the Sun and Moon Empire from making this money!

Immediately, his expression became a little tangled again.

Stopping the opponent would naturally prevent the soul guidance device and various Sun-Moon Empire-related information from being known to Douluo Continent in advance, but it might cause heavy casualties to the high-level soul masters and affect subsequent plans.

It would be great if we could stop the other party and prevent secrets from being revealed without losing manpower.

But there is a way to have both peace and tranquility in this world...

Although he knew that he was wishful thinking, Xu Haolong still couldn't help but ask, "Is there any way to stop the opponent without causing casualties to my high-level Sun and Moon combat power?"

The ministers fell into silence. After a while, a minister carefully said, "Can you... send out the soul-moving mentor group... woo!"

As soon as the minister finished speaking, another minister who was close to him and stood beside him rushed over and covered his mouth. He smiled at the glaring ministers and said, "Brother Zhang may not have slept last night."

Okay, I'm a little confused, don't take it off."

Are you kidding, that's the soul mentor group!

Yes, there is indeed no high-level combat power in the soul master group. The conventional commander of the soul master group is only an eighth-level soul master, and some are even only seventh-level. The members are generally at the fourth or fifth level, but every

A soul engineer group is created by the empire with countless efforts, and the soul guidance devices included in it are even more valuable.

Relying on these top-notch soul guidance tools and more than a thousand soul masters starting from the fourth level, it is indeed possible to eliminate the group of people in Douluo Continent, but this group of soul masters may also have to be completely destroyed.

In order to stop Han Shi's people, he sacrificed a group of soul engineers?

Then it is better to let the high-level combat power take action!

Xu Haolong couldn't help but show disappointment in his eyes.

After waiting for a long time, all I got was such a stupid suggestion.

Is it really possible to sacrifice some high-end combat power and completely leave the opponent behind in the sun and the moon?

"Your Majesty, if there are no casualties... it is not impossible."

De Hongchen suddenly spoke, which instantly restored hope to Xu Haolong's eyes, "Is there anything the Emperor can do?"

"My method cannot keep them all in the sun and moon." De Hongchen smiled, "But...it is still possible to trap them for a few years."

"A few years will do!" Xu Haolong was not disappointed at all, but became more and more excited.

In a year or two, all the plans will be almost completed. By then, everything in the hands of Han Shi and his group will have lost value, and there will be nothing to worry about.

"Emperor Master, what is your approach?"

"Your Majesty, do you still remember that before I became a tenth-level soul engineer, I disappeared for eight years?" De Hongchen's eyes were full of nostalgia.

"Of course I remember. Didn't you say at that time that you were traveling around incognito?"

"That's just an excuse." De Hongchen shook his head and smiled, "Actually, I was trapped in a secret realm for those eight years. This secret realm is not far from Ming Dynasty, but it requires an extremely special method to open it.

Normally I wouldn't notice anything strange at all, and I accidentally fell into it by coincidence. Although I got some opportunities, it took me a full eight years to leave."

"This..." Xu Haolong and the officials were all stunned, even Yao Hongchen's face was full of surprise at this moment.

He had never heard his father talk about this matter.

Zhou Yuan's expression moved slightly, and he immediately said, "Emperor Master, what do you mean?"

"Yes." De Hongchen nodded, "I can tell you how to open this secret realm. They will definitely be trapped if they enter it. Even with my current strength, they will never be able to escape. I believe that some of them

No one can do it. As for how you deceive people from Douluo Continent into the secret realm, I don’t care."

Lure the other party into a secret realm?

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Compared with directly chasing and intercepting the opponent, this method is obviously gentler, but it can still be effective.

"Your Majesty, I think this plan is a good one!" Zhou Yuan spoke loudly, with a bit of excitement in his eyes.

To actually know such a secret realm, the Imperial Master is indeed unfathomable.
