Words:1971Update:22/06/26 12:27:48
The next morning, Tan Lang arrived at the government residence with doubts about the prophecy. However, he saw that the door was shut and a team of honorary immortal guards was guarding the entrance.
Under normal circumstances, the door of the government residence would open at eight o 'clock sharp every morning. There would be two honorary immortal guards guarding the door and four of them would take shifts every day. There would be a team of four every three days. Apart from the team leader, the rest of the team members would be on duty.
In the government residence, there was another 13-member honorary immortal guard team that was responsible for patrolling. The team leader would lead the team and the team would take shifts every day.
Now that there was a team of honorary immortal guards blocking the entrance, it meant that something must have happened in the government residence.
Tan Lang frowned slightly and rushed to the team leader.
"What happened?"
The team leader recognized Tan Lang immediately. He was familiar with the people from the Heaven Alliance. Aside from sleeping, Tang Ning from the Heaven Alliance had been staying in the government residence for the past few days. He also knew that the leader of the Heaven Alliance was the powerhouse named Tan Lang before him. His aura was even more powerful than the governor's.
"Mr. Tan Lang …" The team leader looked troubled when he heard Tan Lang's question. "The deputy governor has ordered us not to tell anyone about what happened in the government residence. I can't tell you, so please don't ask."
"I'm looking for your governor. Looking at the situation, I can't enter the government residence, can I?" Tan Lang asked again.
"I'm sorry, the government residence is locked down now. You can't enter or leave." The team leader shook his head.
"Alright, I won't make things difficult for you. If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, you can look for our people at the inn. "Tan Lang glanced at the door that was shut and left in deep thought.
When he returned to the inn, Tan Lang gathered everyone and told them about what happened at the entrance of the government residence.
"Could there be an anomaly in the government residence?" Lin Huang was the first to ask after listening.
In reality, he already knew what happened in the government residence through Bloody's surveillance, but he could not tell them.
"It's possible." Li Jia shared the same opinion as Lin Huang. "They wouldn't have reacted like this if the government residence was attacked. Moreover, our inn is less than a kilometer away from the government residence. It's impossible that we didn't sense any battle wave. If it's a phenomenon, it's entirely possible for it to appear without warning. "
"If there's really no other way, we'll stay here today and not go hunting. We'll wait for news from the governor's office." Tan Lang was a little worried.
"There's no need. With Li Jia and Shen Tao around, you guys can hunt in peace. " Lin Huang didn't want Tan Lang and the others to delay their hunt. After all, one day less hunting meant one day less Crystal Nucleus harvest. "If there's no news from the government residence for two to three days, are you guys going to wait in the city for two to three days?"
"Then leave the Herculean King behind. You should still keep a familiar by your side just in case." Tan Lang was most worried about Lin Huang's safety. After all, Chan Dou had instructed him to take good care of Lin Xie before he came.
"Ask the Herculean King yourself if I'm still short of familiars." Lin Huang couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
The Herculean King turned to look at the Greedy Wolf. "Among Master's familiars, I'm the weakest."
The people from the Heaven Alliance were stunned to hear that. They looked at Lin Huang in shock.
"The Herculean King is being humble," Lin Huang added with a smile.
Naturally, the Herculean King knew that Lin Huang was hiding his ability, so he said nothing more.
"I see. That gave me a scare." The way Tan Lang looked at the Herculean King was even more passionate after hearing Lin Huang's explanation. He thought to himself, 'He knows how to be humble. He's as smart as a human.'
The Herculean King, who was initially standing on the left of Lin Huang, took a step back to the right and stood behind Lin Huang when he noticed Tan Lang looking at him in a strange way.
"I'm being ignored …" Tan Lang was upset when he saw what the Herculean King was doing.
After a round of discussion, they decided to follow the plan that they had discussed the night before. Lin Huang and the other three would stay behind while the rest of them would follow the Herculean King out of the city to hunt.
After sending Tan Lang and the rest off, Tang Ning headed to the government residence to get some information while Lin Huang and the other two stayed at the inn.
Soon, Tang Ning returned. He was stopped by the honorary immortal guards outside the government residence and he did not manage to get any useful information.
Li Jia could not hold it in anymore when he saw that Tang Ning was stopped.
"It's annoying to be kept in the dark. I'll check it out with my bug and see what's going on."
"We have to stay calm at times like this." Lin Huang rejected Li Jia's suggestion right away. "The government residence has blocked the news. It means that they don't want outsiders to know about it. Now that the world is in chaos, the government residence doesn't trust us completely. It'll be fine if we don't get found out. If we do, they'll only trust us less. Especially now that we've confirmed that there are sects and human immortals behind the government residence, we have to build a good relationship with the government residence. Let's not cause any trouble at a time like this.
"Moreover, if the government residence needs help, they'll naturally come to us. If they don't come to us, it means that they have their own ways to solve the problem and they don't need our help. If we take the initiative to check it out, they'll think that we have an ulterior motive. "
"Lin Xie has a point." Shen Tao nodded in agreement.
"Let's not look into this anymore. Go about your own business. If there's nothing else, just treat it as a holiday." Lin Huang stood up and returned to his room after he was done speaking.
The three of them looked at each other and went their separate ways.
In the afternoon, a deputy governor brought the honorary immortal guards to the inn and found Lin Huang and the rest.
Clearly, the problem was not solved. The government residence had no choice but to seek help from the Heaven Alliance.
The deputy governor looked a little awkward when he saw the people from the Heaven Alliance.
"What exactly happened? Can you tell us now?" Li Jia had been holding back the question for the entire morning. He finally asked it now.
"There was an anomaly in the government residence this morning. There were two governors." The deputy governor, He Tao, told them what happened helplessly. "We spent the entire morning but we couldn't figure out who's real and who's fake …"
"Did you confirm that it's an anomaly? Is it someone in disguise? "Tang Ning asked.
"I don't think it's someone in disguise because he knows a lot about the sect's secrets, including some of the governors' personal secrets. Outsiders won't know about these things. "He Tao shook his head." It can only be an anomaly. "
"So, what can we do?" Lin Huang asked. In reality, he had known about this since the morning. He had even asked Bloody to monitor the situation in the government residence. However, he could not figure out who was real and who was fake from the images Bloody sent back.
"We're really out of ideas. That's why we're here to ask if you guys have any ideas." He Tao looked helpless.
"Even you guys can't figure it out. I'm afraid we can't be of much help." Shen Tao shook his head.
"Bring us to have a look." Li Jia, on the other hand, was interested in this matter. "But let me make this clear. We might not have a feasible solution."
"Sure!" He Tao had no other ideas. He could only agree to let Lin Huang and the rest try.
