Chapter 1144: The Enemy General Appears

Several armored vehicles were parked near the temporary residence of the Dashun delegation. Except for the communication and liaison personnel, the people in the vehicles did not get out, but just stared closely in the direction of the residence.

After waiting for a while, they saw the gate of the base open. First, a team of security members came down the steps, stood on both sides, and quickly controlled the street entrance.

Then, head of the delegation Xie, Rowena and her assistants and team members came out.

Chen Chuan lagged behind slightly. He glanced towards the armored vehicle. When those deep and calm eyes swept over, the bodies of everyone in the car involuntarily tensed up. The car was filled with nervous heartbeats and rapid breathing.

Captain Xie and Rowena had already finished their conversation. Rowena turned around, leaned on her cane, bowed slightly to Chen Chuan, and said:

"Mr. Chen, after the temple is transferred, it would be inappropriate for me to say some things. But I have devoted decades of hard work to this temple, and I am really worried about it. So I would like to ask you to take good care of the temple. I will be grateful to you."

Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Ms. Luo, I will. You can rest assured." He glanced at where Alura was standing and said, "I heard that Ms. Luo is going back to her hometown. I wish you a safe journey."

Rowena bowed again and left with her team. After reaching the other side, she got into an armed vehicle alone. After all the other people got in, the vehicle started slowly and drove out under the watchful eyes of the local security personnel.

When Chen Chuan saw them leave, he and Captain Xie returned to the hall. When they entered the room, Hong Fu appeared beside him and said to him, "She just sent me a message." She also said, "Some combat data."

Chen Chuan said: "Alula?"

Hong Fu nodded, "This data can be loaded into my information field, it just takes a little time."

Chen Chuan nodded. It seemed that Allura knew that he had noticed her, so she made some gestures to show her goodwill in advance.

Hongfu analyzed the information very quickly, but even she needed some time to process it, which showed that the amount of information was very huge, and it was probably the data accumulated by Fighting City over the years.

Once she fully absorbs and digests this data, it is estimated that her combat effectiveness will be significantly improved on the original basis.

The armored car broke through the neon lights and noise and drove out of the city. In the back seat, Rowena said, "Alula, your calculation was correct. They really let us go."

She sighed and said: "Your plans are always correct, and everything goes as you expected. When I was a child, I always wondered if the world was evolving according to the script you wrote."

Allura's ethereal voice rang out in the car: "That's not the case. The changes in the world are not something I can predict. No original plan can ever be successful. I need to rely on more backup plans to adjust and supplement."

Although everything has evolved in the direction she set so far, this does not mean that her arrangements are perfect. The actual implementation process is full of uncontrollable factors, which requires her to constantly adjust and make up for the loopholes.

For example, the red skull was found after she analyzed it through the database and determined its approximate location, which she then passed on to the West Coast government and asked them to find it.

However, when discussing whether to put this thing in the lockdown hall, there was actually a debate, and in the end they almost decided to put it in another place. If this step failed, there would be no way to talk about the rest.

She also made some arrangements in advance to tell Luo Xiao that there was a treasure in the ancient museum that could solve the problem of alienation. In one of her plans, she wanted Luo Xiao to take advantage of the change in the ceremony to snatch the treasure, thereby exacerbating the chaos in the central city.

However, Luo Xiao was killed in advance, causing the plan to fail, forcing her to rearrange the plan, and one more plan means one more variable.

As for a series of actions that require the cooperation of the resistance organization, she can only preset a general framework. She cannot control the specific details of the actions. It can only be said that they have relied on a certain amount of luck to get to this point.

At this moment, the convoy suddenly slowed down. There was a strong flash in front of them. The driver said solemnly, "This is a temporary checkpoint, Ms. Luo. It may be that the field-interfering creatures on our car attracted their attention. Should we take a detour?"

Rowena said, "It's useless. Just do as usual. I'm prepared."

At this time, she took out a pill and swallowed it. After a while, her body made a series of bone-crackling sounds, and she gradually grew taller. At the same time, her old skin was falling off, revealing smooth and young skin. Her teeth became harder, and her hair became thicker and grew rapidly, falling to her waist in just a moment.

In just a short while, she changed from an old lady in her fifties or sixties to a young woman of no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, with firm and smooth skin, white and neat teeth, beautiful eyebrows, and hair that shone with a satin-like luster.

This is a set of secret methods that Allura tailored for her. She has been practicing since she was a child. Only her appearance has aged. In fact, the internal functions of her body are always in a state of hibernation. When she fully promotes this method, she can immediately return to the peak state of her youth. And not only in appearance, her mental strength also improves with the full recovery of her physical fitness.

At least in just a few minutes, even if there was no field interfering with the creature, Allura who was attached to her would not be found by the large field.

And because she had been preparing for this day since she was a child, her biological information and field records were intentionally falsified, and what appeared now was a completely new self.

She quickly changed her clothes in the back seat. At this moment, the inspectors had already turned off the field-interfering creatures in the convoy and were checking each vehicle one by one with field detectors.

When passing by Rowena, the light shone, but this young woman did not match any of the recorded information. There must be a deviation in the information. This was obviously not the person they were looking for.

They were not surprised by this, as they heard that there was a problem in the big venue tonight and similar incidents had happened many times before.

After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no reaction from the main venue, proving that there was no problem with this group of people, he waved his hand and let them go.

After passing several checkpoints, the convoy finally drove out of the central city. At this time, the resistance personnel on the car finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although they were not completely out of danger yet, getting out of the city was already the biggest success.

They thought that Central City would block the entire city, so they would have to force their way in.

In fact, the management did intend to take this measure, but due to the frequent riots in the city and the instability in many immigrant communities, a full blockade would only further intensify the situation, so this approach was abandoned.

The news of the convoy's departure was immediately transmitted to the north of the city. Captain Qu, who had been waiting there, felt relieved after receiving the telegram.

But just a moment later, he tightened his face again, waved his hand to let the telegraph operator leave, and then operated it himself and sent a telegram to somewhere.

If there were any intelligence personnel from Dashun here, they would be able to recognize that this was a secret signal within the department.

Deep underground in the blockade hall, in a cell made of special gelatinous material, Emperor Calliopatus of the old imperial family of Jono was imprisoned.

His forehead is relatively broad but is now hidden by his loose black hair. The two eyes underneath are very bright, with a hint of depth in them that seems to be able to see through people's hearts. His thin lips appear very cold and ruthless if viewed alone, but when placed on his handsome face, they have an indescribable charm.

At this time, his upper body was naked, and his whole body was surrounded by golden ritual chains. However, as the oppression of the ritual on him gradually weakened, the corners of his mouth gradually curled up.

And those golden shackles actually broke one by one, his body shook and he broke away from the gelatinous wall. It could be seen that in the process a large piece of flesh on his back was torn off, even revealing the bones underneath, but he didn't seem to care at all, and the squirming flesh on his back quickly filled the wound.

He slowly moved in mid-air to the center of the cell and looked up into the sky, where a beam of light was shining through the cell.

He took a deep breath, and his body slowly floated upwards. When he reached the highest point, he stretched out his hand and touched it high above. The thick gelatinous walls were quickly melted by a faint flash of spiritual fire, and not a single bit of it spread to other places.

His figure flashed and he came outside, and the gelatinous substance underneath quickly merged and sealed up. At the same time, the torn piece of flesh underneath squirmed and grew, quickly turning into his appearance, as if it had never left.

He went up the long tunnel, and countless ritual blockades along the way reacted to his passage. However, without the support of external forces, even if the ritual itself was amplified, it could not stop his progress.

After passing through several blocked doors, he came to the top floor. He glanced at the smooth marble wall beside him, in which his figure was reflected.

He smiled, and strands of alienated tissue emerged from his body and weaved themselves into a complete set of clothes. It was a completely exquisite and fashionable dress, and he also added some minor improvements to the details according to his own aesthetic taste.

Just being here doesn't mean he can break out, because there is an independent blocking ceremony outside, and outside there are even greater obstacles. But he doesn't seem to care, and walks towards the front hall with a smile on his face, in a pace that perfectly conforms to court etiquette.
