Xiao Mingze had mixed feelings, but no matter what, he knew that he had made the right choice.
"By the way, is there anything else going on in the capital?" Lü Shu asked as he picked up a piece of meat.
Xiao Mingze hesitated for a moment. "What are you referring to, Your Majesty? Does the Royal Academy's event tomorrow count? "
Lü Shu's eyes lit up. "Of course it does!"
Xiao Mingze suddenly began to mourn for the Royal Academy … That night, Yi Qian quietly came to Lü Shu's courtyard and left in a hurry. Xiao Mingze also left the courtyard for the first time after hiding for a long time. They all had their own missions to accomplish.
The wealthy families of the capital were busy with their own affairs, but at this critical time, they had to pay more attention to the slightest movement in the capital, in case something happened in time.
Yesterday's intelligence had come that Wu Weijun was marching at full speed, and would probably reach the capital soon.
However, the spies in the capital didn't know when Wu Weijun would arrive. First of all, no one dared to go near Wu Weijun. After all, too many spies had mysteriously disappeared, which led to an inexplicable fear of Wu Weijun. They didn't know how Wu Weijun had managed to get rid of all the spies around him.
Everyone was obviously very cautious, but as soon as someone tried to get within a hundred miles of Wu Weijun, they would mysteriously disappear, and not even their corpses could be found.
Some finally realized that there was something wrong with the rats surrounding Wu Weijun, but Xiaoxiong Xu had hidden very well. The spies only felt that there was something wrong, but still couldn't figure out what the problem was.
Therefore, the intelligence on Wu Weijun in the hands of the wealthy families of the capital was lagging behind. This wasn't something they wanted to see, but there was nothing they could do about it.
Later, something even more awkward happened. Because the battle in the Western Capital had attracted most of the spies, when Wu Weijun set off for the capital, the spies were following behind him.
In the end, they found that … Wu Weijun's marching speed was too fast, and they couldn't keep up at all!
This was the first time they had encountered such a situation. How could an ordinary army be faster than a spy? After all, the average strength of most troops was much lower than that of spies, and the marching speed was determined by the lower limit. If the lower limit was Level Six, then the marching speed would be Level Six.
The reason why a secret agent could become a secret agent was that he or she had outstanding strength. Just like the selection process for the special forces, those who were not Rank-4 or Rank-3 could not even dream of becoming a secret agent.
But when it came to Wu Weijun, ordinary elite spies in front of Wu Weijun couldn't even reach the average strength of Wu Weijun.
Wu Weijun was at least Rank-2!
This was the first time the spies had lost their target because they couldn't keep up with their speed …
Left with no choice, the wealthy families of the capital could only temporarily transfer some of their family members along the way to set up posts along the way to observe Wu Weijun's marching speed. These people might have been doing business before, but now they had suddenly become spies.
But Wu Weijun didn't just walk on the main road. Before the spies lost him, they found out that Wu Weijun was very stubborn. Everyone else marched on the main road because it was the most convenient.
But Wu Weijun was different. Wu Weijun walked in a straight line …
As the saying goes, the distance between two points is the shortest. When Li Liang received the order to march at full speed, he didn't plan to stick to the main road.
After all, when building a road, one had to take a detour when encountering mountains and rivers, or else the road wouldn't be built.
But things like mountains and rivers were nothing in front of Wu Weijun. He just had to cross them. Back when the Green Dragon study group was still in Green Dragon Village, everyone had to cross mountains and rivers even when they were cultivating in the mountains. Now, it was nothing.
Moreover, Wu Weijun was excited. The fact that Li Heitan had put on the Vibrating Mountain Armor had aroused the competitiveness of many people. There weren't many pieces of Vibrating Mountain Armor left. More than five thousand people were fighting for the remaining forty pieces. It was like crossing a single-log bridge with thousands of men and horses. Whoever was first Rank-1 would be able to wear it first.
At this time, all the officers and soldiers of Mituryū Kanao who hadn't reached Rank-1 wished that they could go berserk every day so that their meridians could be reconstructed.
They weren't worried about meridians because they knew that something was added to their food. It was a mysterious recipe that their king had personally given to Head Butler Xiaoyu.
Mituryū Kanao didn't know what exactly was added to their food. Anyway, it was fine as long as they didn't go berserk …
Initially, Li Liang was worried that there would be problems with the high-intensity march. After all, no matter how strong Mituryū Kanao's overall fitness was, he wouldn't be able to endure such a long distance.
However, he realized that he was worrying too much. Ever since this group of contestants was provoked by Li Heitan, they wouldn't be willing to rest even if Li Liang wanted them to. Previously, they had to cross mountains in order to advance quickly. Now, they weren't even willing to walk on the main road. They had to climb mountains!
Under normal circumstances, Li Liang would force Mituryū Kanao to rest when he felt that they really couldn't march anymore. Otherwise, it would affect their combat state.
Although the consumption of the Marrow-Cleansing Fruit was a little faster this way, Lü Xiaoyu really didn't save any for Lü Shu.
Mituryū Kanao was an army that couldn't be judged by common sense. It was also the most relaxed army that Li Liang had ever led. He didn't need to worry too much about things. He didn't need to worry about execution, morale, or anything else. He only needed to make the right decision at the right time.
A large group of people rushed forward in a straight line in the mountains. The spies behind them were going crazy. What kind of army would march like this in the world?
They stood on a mountain far away and watched. They could only hear the screams and saw Li Heitan and the others crossing the mountains and getting further and further away …
On the other hand, the wealthy families of the royal city were forced to organize a temporary team of spies and place them in the mountains and on the main road. However, here came the key problem. Ordinary troops could place spies on the main road, but against the Mituryū Kanao led by Li Liang, who could tell where they had to go?
They didn't take the main road at all …
With no other choice, the spy team that had just been formed by the Royal City's rich and powerful families could only head towards the mountains and fields. However, some people were lying in the forest waiting for the Imperial Dragon Class, when they heard someone rushing over.
At this time, it was already too late to run, because their speed was much slower than the Imperial Dragon Class! They had just heard the sound when Mituryū Kanao appeared in their field of vision. The amateur spies didn't dare to run and could only continue to lie down.
These amateur spies were like being trampled by a herd of bison. Mituryū Kanao didn't deliberately target them at all. He just stepped on their faces and the back of their heads …
Then, the spies had to face the rat tide army that followed closely behind Mituryū Kanao …
Basically, Mituryū Kanao was like a huge bulldozer. Everywhere they passed, the trees fell, the stones shattered, and the spies died …
Originally, Li Liang thought that according to his plan, it would take about 18 days to reach the royal city, but now it seemed that it wouldn't take that long.
Before this, the wealthy families of the royal city had set a meeting seven days later. Now that everyone was panicking, the meeting was brought forward to two days. Some even suggested to hold the meeting immediately. What were they waiting for? If they waited any longer, there wouldn't be a meeting at all.
However, the wealthy families of the royal city had their own demands because they needed time and this excuse to transfer their core members and assets! Of course, they had to discuss things, but before that, they had to minimize their losses!
At this time, no one noticed that Inner Palace Zhi was no longer in Mituryū Kanao's team.
