The King's Game

Chapter 122

Edited by: grump

The youth fled... or was forcibly taken away by the others. The message did not clearly specify that, but the mechanical creatures in the city preferred to lean towards the latter.

The superior’s order was to bring him back. The moment the order was received, the entire city was completely sealed off, and the robots quickly began to search the city.

The youth was a very important captive. So, according to the dual requirements of procedures and their superior’s orders, they must find the youth as soon as possible.

However, all life forms that tried to take youth away from them would be killed on the spot.

Basically they had switched to enemy mode, anxious to find their lost treasure. The eyes of the mechanical creatures gradually turned red.

The effect of blockading the city was very obvious. A large number of N-type robots had sprung up on various streets, causing the hearts of the covert troops dispatched by the Kadrin parliament to sink at once.

The enemy’s response was a bit too fast, faster than they had expected. They had only just left the palace...

Before the start of the operation, of course, the hidden troops had made detailed plans, but the plans could not keep up with the changes. Now the enemy’s high-speed response had caught all the hidden troops off guard.

“The installations won’t last long. We don’t have time to dawdle. I suggest we go to the trade zone. According to the old structure of Kelno City, we can dive out of the city through the sewer.” The hidden troops were dressed in uniform tight leather armor, and the speaker was a rogue of the Beastman race who wcould not stop looking at his pocket watch when speaking.

“There are only five bottles of liquid medicine.” One of them also mentioned aloud.

To infiltrate a city full of mechanical creatures to save a life, it was not enough to rely solely on personal ability. After hundreds of years of fighting with the mechanical army, the allies of Kadrin parliament had long understood that if they wanted to hide their whereabouts under the nose of mechanical creatures, they must first cover up all their biological processes.

However, neither the engineering device with this capability nor the medicine could be mass produced. The utility time of the device was still short and cannot accommodate any delay. The quantity of medicine that could be produced was very limited.

There was no doubt that the hidden troops, who were now sneaking into the city to carry out a rescue mission, were facing a very difficult dilemma. Once the equipment stopped working, their fighting power would diminish.

And now there was another situation that was even worse. Their rescue target was very uncooperative.

“It has been said that we are here to save you. The Elf priest should have informed you of the situation in your dream in advance. Even if not, you don’t want to stay in this place to die.” The gnome said this to the young man who was carried on his shoulder by his companion. The latter was currently under the control of magic and had finally made no resistance.

He also didn’t know how the elves handled affairs over there. What exactly was the good dream communication? The man they were asked to rescue not only refused to cooperate, but also didn’t want to go back as soon as they met. If they hadn’t taken advantage of the spare magic to stop the other, they would still be lingering in the palace.

“There is a cave-in in the sewer. The passage is blocked. You can’t get out through the trade area.” His body was restrained and he couldn’t move, but Gu Huai could still speak. He spoke to veto the plan that the hidden forces wanted to carry out.

Gu Huai did not actually know what was going on in the sewer. He said this just to buy himself time to eliminate the restriction magic.

“If you put me down, you still have the ability to escape.” Almost able to break the magic, Gu Huai watched the surrounding scenes and thought about the next step while being carried.

No one wanted to die if they could live well, but the members of the hidden forces responsible for rescuing the youth all knew the value of their rescue object to the parliament and to the world. Even if they were sacrificed, they had to rescue the youth from the city.

This young human being was one of their few hopes to fight against the mechanical army. In the long run, it was the hope that all of Eizea would continue to survive.

“Five bottles of potions, the four of you with him, run to the trade area on the other side of the exit, we wait for the device failure to distract the guards on the other side. As you can see, we can’t buy too much time, so don’t let our sacrifices go to waste.” The hidden force captain was already holding onto the idea of sacrifice; he handed out the potion to four elite team members. Holding the last bottle, he pulled out the cork of the potion bottle, while the beastmen carrying the youth walked past.

In fact, the mechanical creatures that started to search along various roadways were still secondary. What couldn’t be ignored by all the people in the hidden force was the terrible aura hanging over their heads.

Although the former was also very numbing because of the quantity, the latter... gave them the feeling of absolute domination, which covered the entire city and forced them to be deeply aware of the huge magical aura wherever they went, surpassing the limit that a living person could reach.

Did they really have a way to overcome such an existence...?

At the moment of feeling the terror, all the members of the hidden force hiding in the concealed alley began to doubt this.

The final creation of the Ark Project, Noah, was a humanoid weapon made by human beings, which was closest to the “God”.

Even if all races united, their chances of winning against such a creation that was not within the norm seemed very slim.

But in any case, they always had to do their best to resist.

The moment Walker approached the youth was also the moment when the latter got rid of the restriction and regained the ability to move freely. At such a close distance, Walker managed to capture the human youth who was almost out of control.

Now was an emergency. Walker also didn’t want to reason with the youth. He had his subordinates hold down the youth, and he was ready to put the potion directly into the youth’s mouth.

The plan went smoothly and well. Gu Huai did not want to leave the city. And members of the hidden force did not explain to him the purpose of the medicine. For Gu Huai, what the opposite person was holding was a bottle of unknown medicine .

Considering that these people came to save him, Gu Huai could not really be ungrateful, and the result was the current situation.

“Wait... let go.” His lower jaw was pinched, which made Gu Huai’s words not so clear. He had to gather the elements, Gu Huai planned to use the impact to separate himself from them.

Holding the young man’s lower jaw was to force the young man to drink the medicine. When Walker put the medicine bottle to the young man’s mouth and was ready to tilt the bottle, a sudden horrible feeling enveloped his whole body which made him tense.

The hidden force was very sensitive to dangerous atmospheres, which was also part of their survival instincts. But now, the alarm bell sounded in their mind instantly, making all the people present, especially the two who were holding down the young man and holding the young man’s jaw, begin to sweat.

Before anyone reacted, the sudden extremely heavy pressure made all present except the youth unable to move. A cold figure appeared in front of everyone without warning, and swept the youth directly into his grasp.

Noah—

Confirming the identity of this cold figure, all the people present in the hidden force were immersed in an incredible emotion at this time, and their hearts went cold.

Why did the other catch them personally???

Various races had fought with the mechanical army for hundreds of years. In these hundreds of years, the number of times this figure appeared in the battlefield before their eyes was only a handful.

This was a good thing for the allies. As long as one had seen the capabilities of the other once on the battlefield, the terrible feeling of being completely suppressed like a nightmare would make one not want to experience it a second time.

The dark weapon emitting a terrifying aura, the symbolic weapon. On the surface, it looked like a cold weapon of the old times. However, when this cold weapon was held by the figure in front of them, the destructive power it could cause would reach an unimaginable level of terror.

From the moment they saw the other calling out this black weapon, the hidden troops present gave up their resistance. Accurately speaking, they couldn’t resist at all now, and their bodies were still unable to move.

They would be beheaded, at this moment, the people present only had this thought.

But by the next second, what they saw in front of them made all the members of the hidden force suddenly stunned. At the moment when the black weapon was held by its owner, the captured human youth took the initiative to embrace the cold figure...

The youth was forced, he didn’t want to escape. He saw the scene where the young man was almost forced to drink an unknown substance. Now he was actively hugged by the young man. Noah paused for a moment, put his left hand behind the young man protectively, and then gently patted the young man’s back with restraint.

Quietly putting the white mask into the young man’s hand. Noah lowered his eyes to see more than a dozen living beings on the ground, without a trace of warmth in his eyes, like frost.

The youth had been taken out of the palace. If he had found out later, the youth may have been forced out of the royal city by these people.

The latter committed a capital crime that could not be pardoned and they would be personally punished.

Holding was not enough to work, watching Noah raise the black weapon, Gu Huai hurriedly pressed the other’s wrist and said: “Wait a minute... They...”

The two sides were still in a state of hostility. Gu Huai knew very well that stance was sometimes a choice. After Noah moved his eyes to him, Gu Huai modified his own words completely, “Just catch them for the time being and lock them up, okay? “

It was against Noah’s position to let people go directly. Gu Huai could only compromise to make this choice in order to let the people of the hidden force survive. This request was made because Gu Huai knew Noah’s attitude towards him.

Observing the young man to confirm that he was in good condition, Noah looked down at his wrist held down by the youth and finally silently withdrew his black weapon.

The N-type robots that searched the streets all over the city had now all surrounded the hidden path, which had not been easy to find. From N1 to N3 models, a large number of mechanical creatures had surrounded the dark pathway in all directions and were gradually tightening their encirclement.

They had just received the signal and arrived at the place at the same time the commander had caught the youth. They were subconsciously concerned about the youth at the same time. In addition, the N1-type mechanical creatures’ eyes were bright red lights. They glared at the rest of the living beings in the dark pathway, their attitude were obviously not friendly.

Now, even if they were blind again, the bound members of the hidden force could see to some extent that these mechanical creatures treated the youth with a very calm attitude, like they were concerned, but they all hid it deliberately and did not show it clearly.

However, the attitude of the final creation towards the youth was even more subtle. Noah was willing to accept the youth’s request and did not kill them on the spot, which was unexpected by all the hidden troops.

This was exactly how the situation went. Bound by magic all the way back to the palace, the hidden forces at this point even doubted their task.

If these mechanical creatures treated the youth this way, was it necessary for them to rescue the other???

Their task, from the beginning, was wrong...

The large army returned to the palace and remained with the others. Gu Huai said to the cold figure in front of him, “I didn’t want to escape.”

At this time, a large number of N2 robots and a large number of high-level members of the Mechanical creatures gathered in the palace. Hearing the youth’s words, they couldn’t help but want to speak well for the youth now.

“Commander, your subordinate thinks that he did not lie... and if he is to be punished, we made an even greater mistake because our defense was not strict enough, and these thieves who broke into the Royal city should bear the rest of the blame.” The assistant officer lowering his head tried as far as possible to push aside the blame from the youth.

At this time, other humanoid machines in the palace soon responded one after another, racking their brains to exonerate the human youth in front of them.

Just waiting for the harmony to gradually stop, the palace quieted down. Noah, standing before all the mechanical creatures, did not make any noise, his expression very cold.

Coming into contact with the other’s line of sight, Gu Huai at this time intended to ask again the question he asked before.

“What will you do with me?” He also walked a step closer to the front of the cold figure. Last time, the other did not answer this question directly. This time, Gu Huai wanted the other to say a definite answer.

But at the moment when the young man’s voice just dropped, all the witnesses in the palace were stuck in the same spot in an instant, whether it was mechanical creatures or the dozen thieves who were being restrained.

The cold and perfect humanoid weapon picked up the young man without saying a word. Ignoring all the other people present, he held the young man and walked to another room in the palace.

Instead of holding him sideways, he picked him up a little vertically. With his feet off the ground, Gu Huai reflexively placed his hands around Noah’s neck. Held up like this, he was slightly stunned and unresponsive.

Wait... this situation seemed a little beyond expectation...?
