Chapter 716 Where did you do it for me?
When Amber made a big fuss in the palace, Drama Leon, the founding emperor of the Star Dragon Empire, who should have been sleeping according to the request of the eunuch minister, was discussing some matters related to the federal government with the first prime minister of the empire, Hocken Berg.
The empire has just been established for more than ten years and there are already a lot of matters to be dealt with. Another major human force, the Blue Star Federation, is also eyeing this emerging empire from its original territory. Therefore, in the history books of the Star Dragon Empire, Drama Leon, who is known as the "founding wise king" and the "eternal emperor" in the Star Dragon Empire, also often discusses with some important officials late at night for some matters.
However, the tonight, which should have been spent in a simple manner, became no longer ordinary because of the sound of the alarm in the Grand Palace.
When the Imperial Commander entered the palace to meet and whispered to inform the founding emperor that someone had broken into the underground facilities, knocked the Archbishop and others out, and was still fleeing inside the Grand Palace, Drama Leon was not only angry as expected, but also showed a hint of excitement on his face.
After seeing the confusion of the imperial prime minister, Deraman Leon did not shy away, but directly informed the prime minister of the current situation.
"The underground facilities have also been invaded? How did this be done? Isn't there only one entry and exit passage? What are your imperial guards doing for food? Can you sneak into His Majesty quietly as long as the other party is willing!"
After hearing this, the Prime Minister of the Empire, Hocken Berg, was furious and poured on the leader of the Imperial Army.
"Sir, the imperial guards will fight to the death to protect His Majesty's safety"
"I haven't caught anyone yet, so don't say anything beautiful about 'striving to protect'!"
Hocken Berger waved his hand, ignored the imperial guards' commander, and turned to Drama Leon, who was not at all panicked on his face: "Your Majesty, the invaders are still running away now, and it is not necessarily safe here. You should take refuge first under the imperial guards!"
"No, I won't take shelter."
Drama Leon smiled and shook his head, then walked out of the hall first, so shocked that the escort commander rushed to him immediately and unfolded the composite shield at the arm position of the power armor.
"I haven't been active for a long time, and I just happened to catch this invader with my own hands."
"Your Majesty!"
The Imperial Commander Sarivia almost choked when he heard this. There was a rare hint of panic on his face that had been stern for many years. He hurriedly took a step forward and raised the shield slightly higher to protect the emperor's head.
"The situation in the palace is not clear at this moment, and the identity of the invader is unknown. I may have tricks. Please go to the safe area first!"
Drama Leon waved his hand, with a childlike excitement on his face: "Nonsense! I haven't been to the battlefield in person for a long time. What's there to be afraid of such a trivial matter?"
As he said that, he wanted to bypass the loyal imperial guard commander in front of him, and continued to mutter: "Look at the explosion, it must be a good show!"
The imperial prime minister and the imperial commander who were following him were dark and cursed a few disrespectful words in his heart, but he did not dare to express his slightest expression on his face.
The Imperial Commander Sarivia turned his head to look at the prime minister of the empire and signaled the other party to act together with his eyes. Seeing this, Hocken Berg nodded slightly, forcibly maintaining the calm expression on his face.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Hocken Berg spoke slowly, his voice gentle, "It is just that according to the constitution you have set by your Majesty, if you want to go to the front line in person, you must first take the armor, prepare the ceremonial guards, and call the guards."
"What are you waiting for? Go and prepare! The invader will be caught and there will be no more fun!" Delaman Leon said impatiently.
"As for the order, your majesty." Hucken Berg bowed and responded, then slowly turned to the servant beside him and began to issue a series of complicated instructions, each of which delayed the time just right without arousing the emperor's dissatisfaction.
At this moment, a loud noise from the palace in the distance attracted the full attention of the three of them.
I saw a huge black shadow suddenly flew out from the battle palace. The three people with good eyes quickly recognized the black shadow under the bright lights everywhere in the Grand Palace.
That was the statue of Delaman Leon.
——
Taking advantage of the moment of chaos created after throwing out the statue of the emperor, Amber turned around and rushed to the window of the reception room.
"Why is this thing that Sallyh rubbed is still being repaired ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"
Amber let out a whine that was not like a human being, and then, before the chasing imperial guards lifted their guns, they directly smashed the stained glass window. The fragments flashed with brilliant colors under the lights of the Grand Palace, and Amber's figure jumped down from the third floor of this palace like an eagle spreading its wings.
"Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck--"
After Amber suddenly remembered in the air that he could not use his psionic energy, he couldn't help but exclaim, and quickly adjusted his posture and removed his strength, ready to land.
The cushioning system of the biological exoskeleton operated with all its might to slow down the impact of his fall, but even so, when Amber landed, he still smashed a small hole on the lawn of the Grand Palace and splashed a circle of soil.
"Hiss, it's so dangerous."
Amber gasped, and despite the buffering of the exoskeleton, he still felt a little palpitations by jumping from a height of more than ten meters by his body. This kind of jumping down from the height will naturally not cause any damage to him, but after all, I haven't fought on my body for a long time, so I still have a risk of spraining ankle. At this moment, this small problem is enough to be fatal.
Before she could continue to confirm her situation, Amber's legs suddenly exerted force and continued to run because the figure of the imperial guards had appeared on the window. They were adjusting their weapons and preparing to shoot.
But at this time, a team of imperial guards appeared in front of him, obviously after he entered the palace, he surrounded him from other directions.
"There are enemies in front and behind, and now they are really in the jar."
Amber didn't care about the energy consumption of the exoskeleton and suddenly accelerated again. His whole body was like a flash of lightning and shuttled between various shelters near the palace, confusing the imperial guards' vision. However, more and more drones appearing above his head that began to launch suicide attacks also made Amber know that he would really not be able to leave if he didn't leave.
He took the time to look at the dial once again, and the goddess of luck finally kissed his forehead lightly at this moment.
I saw that the dial that was originally flashing red has turned into a yellow light, and a new line of prompts popped up.
"The anchor timeline repair progress is 95%, and the emergency shuttle function has been enabled!"
Emergency shuttle, which is one of the functions of the ‘tactical time shuttle device MK1’ that Salee informed before Operation Amber.
This emergency function will be activated when the user is in crisis and the anchor timeline has a problem and the repair progress exceeds 90%.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Its function is to temporarily send the user to the timeline adjacent to the anchor timeline, so that the difficulty and engineering quantity of the device's timeline analysis will be greatly simplified.
However, this timeline derived from the anchor timeline also has certain errors, and the time difference ranges from more than ten days to several months.
But Amber can't take care of that much now. After all, if he drags on, he may have died in the 1982nd year of the New Calendar.
"Confirm the implementation of the 'emergency jump'!"
"Verification passed and start performing the 'emergency jump'."
Just as Amber finished setting up, a dazzling searchlight column suddenly shone on his hiding place. Then several imperial guards and a "Holy Spirit" armor rushed out from behind a building not far away.
"Discover the target!" The voice of the 'Holy Spirit' armored pilot came out through the loudspeaker, with a bit of mechanical coldness.
The moment the imperial guard was about to rush forward, Amber pressed the shuttle button without hesitation. In an instant, a ball of negative energy bubbles began to form around him, and the familiar, uncomfortable energy fluctuations began to wrap around him.
The next second, with a slight "pop" sound, Amber's figure suddenly disappeared in front of the imperial guards, leaving only a group of stunned imperial guards and an empty corridor.
...
Like every time I had been traveling around before, the feeling of ‘emergency jumping’ was as uncomfortable as ever, and Amber felt as if his consciousness was forcibly divided into two halves, and then he was suddenly synthesized together.
However, the ‘emergency jump’ is still a bit different from the previous normal jumps. The most obvious is that it is because of the uncertainty of the target timeline, so Amber did not see the scene on the target timeline this time, and he felt as if he was deprived of his vision and fell into darkness.
"God, it's so uncomfortable every time, it's not right. This time, TM is even more uncomfortable!"
After his vision became clear again, Amber forced himself to stabilize his body and tried to adjust his breathing. When he finally recovered and looked around, he was stunned.
This is indeed the interior of the Grand Palace where he was just here, but the environment is completely different from before the shuttle.
The collapsed palace, broken stone pillars, the fallen imperial guards' bodies, heavy multi-legged chariots and HCP wreckage, the inexplicable composite armored bunkers around them, the burning of bullet marks and directional energy weapons, the rolling black smoke rising from afar, and the continuous explosions in the background sound.
All this tells Amber that he is in a war zone now.
"What the hell, am I not in the Grand Palace?"
"Boom!"
Before Amber could take a look at the timeline that was currently traveling, a loud bang suddenly came from behind. A golden HCP, wearing an Imperial Imperial Guard, smashed the nearby buildings and rushed into the small garden where Amber was located.
Immediately afterwards, the "Fever" lost control and fell to the ground like a broken puppet, and the golden HCP also pulled out a plasma double-edged battle axe that was deeply slashed from the "Fever" cockpit armor.
At this moment, Amber finally recognized the model of Jincancan HCP through this iconic melee weapon.
MGT-A4 ‘Apostle’, the special HCP for the Martyrs Legion of the Star Dragon Empire
"The Martyrs' Legion fought with the Imperial Imperial Guards? Why did I have such a dream? Where did this come from?"
