1694 An unforeseen event in the Beichen state (1)

After a huge battle, the trial-takers on the plains scattered and fled.

It was only after they had escaped the battlefield that they received the notifications from the Wheel of Fortune. While they were surprised, they were also cursing in their hearts.

The Wheel of Destiny’s methods were truly disgusting.

If they had received the notification earlier, who would have risked their lives to fight the enemy? in the end, they would have no choice but to flee the battlefield when they could not hold on any longer.

Only after receiving the notification did he realize that the real mission was to let them escape as soon as possible, not to fight on the battlefield!

Grumbling was one thing, but the mission still had to continue.

In the trial of destiny, he naturally had to follow the Wheel of Destiny’s commands. So what if he was unwilling?

Thinking about how to get to the Imperial City and how to kill the Emperor, the cultivators all set off for the imperial capital, just for the qualification to fight for the child of destiny.

If the trial was the preliminary round, then those who killed the Emperor would be qualified for the final round.

No one dared to neglect their future and fate.

At this time, the cultivators still did not know that there were two people who did the exact opposite, heading straight for the wild land of the original Imperial City.

……

In the process of distancing himself from the muddy Waters, Tang Zhen also had a basic understanding of this world.

Perhaps the ruler of this world did this on purpose. Everything he saw along the way was the same as the real world. This also made Tang Zhen more confident in his plan.

The experience and knowledge in his mind was Tang Zhen’s decisive weapon. He had traversed across many planes and knew more than a thousand methods to kill.

During the journey, Tang Zhen was most worried that someone would succeed in the assassination. This would lead to the end of the trial. If that was the case, all his efforts would be in vain.

Fortunately, the notice that he was worried about did not appear. This also proved Tang Zhen’s guess that assassinating an Emperor was not an easy task.

Just as they were about to arrive at their destination, Tang Zhen chose a quiet and secluded spot to see if he could take out the items he needed.

This was the key of the key. If he couldn’t do it, Tang Zhen could only think of another way.

If he were to participate in the trial of fate step by step, who knew how much time would be wasted? not to mention that Tang Zhen’s original intention was not to compete for the child of fate, but to take the opportunity to find Hua Yue and kill him.

It was naturally best to be able to obtain the qualifications of the son of destiny. It didn’t matter if he couldn’t obtain Tang Zhen, but he must kill Hua Yue!

Before participating in the trial of fate, Tang Zhen had guessed that he might not be able to bring any items in. If that was the case, it would greatly affect his plans.

Both the items in the storage equipment and the metal bird used for positioning and tracking would not be of use.

After thinking about it again and again, Tang Zhen thought of a solution.

That was to temporarily store the required items in the balance of fate and summon it when it was time to use it.

From Tang Zhen’s point of view, the balance of fate had an extremely magical ability. Even if he was in a world controlled by the creator, it could be summoned and hide its existence.

Sure enough, following Tang Zhen’s summoning, the scales of fate slowly appeared. There was a stack of cards and a small metal bird on it.

Tang Zhen smiled when he saw this. He took all the items on the list in his hand. After which, the destiny scale slowly disappeared.

Looking at the card in his hand, Tang Zhen muttered to himself for a moment before continuing to walk forward with iron head.

The two of them finally arrived at the border of the Empire. It was called the Beichen state, and it had just encountered a large-scale natural disaster.

This place bordered the Barbarian race. Since ancient times, it had been desolate and poor, and there were often people who couldn’t survive and rebelled.

Tang Zhen’s purpose in coming here was to recruit enough people to form an Army and charge towards the Imperial City.

After the battle on the cavalrymen’s battlefield, there were not many trial-takers left. It was impossible to assassinate the Emperor by himself.

Just by looking at the heavily guarded city and the countless cavalrymen, one could tell how tight the defense of the Imperial City was.

Under such circumstances, if he could gather a strong enough Army and fan the flames everywhere, he would be able to stir up a group of heroes until the Army arrived at the imperial capital. His chances of winning would be much higher.

After Tang Zhen took the storage card, he didn’t lack money. With money, he didn’t lack strong men of sacrifice.

After arriving at their destination, the two of them inquired about the specific situation and immediately began to act.

It didn’t take long for a rumor to spread in the Beichen state that someone was recruiting guards for the business group, and as long as they were strong men, they could join.

After joining, one could get one gold coin for selling one’s body, a bag of food, and free food and accommodation.

When they first heard this rumor, many people thought it was a lie.

It was a year of disaster, and the fields in Beichen state had almost no harvest. Countless people left their homes just to find a way out.

In a year where you could buy a Virgin with a few dozen copper coins, such a good thing actually happened. If it wasn’t a scam, what was it?

However, after only two days, no one mentioned the word ” liar ” anymore. Instead, they ran around and persuaded those who could not survive to join the business group.

The other party was really giving money, and they could really eat their fill. Everything was real.

With the rumors from all over the country, those men who could not live no longer hesitated and went to the location of the merchant group. They were afraid that if they were late, the quota would be full and they would no longer accept people.

The entire family’s livelihood depended on them, so no one dared to delay and almost ran over.

Who knew that when he went, he would find out that the scale of this business group was extremely large. It was said that if they wanted to go overseas, they would need at least several thousand people.

Unknowingly, the number of people in the merchant group increased. When it was almost time, a carriage was seen approaching. It was filled with high-quality swords and even shields and armors.

The men of the Beichen state had always been fond of martial arts. After seeing these swords and sabers, they were all overjoyed and wanted to immediately own a set.

Some people were suspicious, thinking that this business group was very secretive and unusual. Now that they had brought so many swords and armors, were they going to gather people to rebel?

But on second thought, he couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.

Now that they couldn’t live anymore, they would die anyway, so what if they rebelled?

With this thought in mind, those tough men didn’t make it public. As long as their family members could survive, it was worth it even if they had to lose their lives.

Not long after, these men encountered another surprise.

The manager gathered everyone and gave them a gold coin and a bag of food while giving out weapons and armor.

“Boss is kind, I’ll give you an extra portion of money and grain. Quickly send it home.”

Those men took the money and grain, each and every one of them sobbing silently. They really didn’t expect that they could still receive money and grain as a reward after receiving the money from selling their bodies.

A gentleman would die for his bosom friend. Meeting such a boss, did he dare to not serve with his life?

After winning over the hearts of the people, it was time for daily training. He believed that it would not take long for these men to be able to carry their sabers and go into battle to kill the enemy.

It was also at this time that the state’s Army received a secret report from a powerful force, claiming that someone was wantonly recruiting soldiers and buying horses, and was likely preparing to rebel.

After a closer look, he realized that more than a dozen business groups had suddenly appeared in the Beichen state. They were all recruiting people, and they only wanted strong men. They even privately distributed weapons for training.

No matter how he looked at it, the behavior of these business groups was somewhat unreasonable, and it was very likely that they were planning a rebellion.

Some time ago, the rebel army had attacked the city and even fought a bloody battle with the Imperial court’s cavalry. Although they were eventually annihilated, there were still some who had escaped.

Now that he had heard that someone was going to rebel, the general guarding the Beichen state did not dare to be negligent and quickly ordered his men to clear the area.

No one would have thought that these 5000 soldiers were like meat buns that had been beaten up by a dog. They had left and never returned.

Just half a day later, the general received the news that these soldiers had been ambushed by the rebel army in the process of dealing with the rebellion. None of the 5000 soldiers had survived.

The general was stunned at first, then he flew into a rage. Just as he was about to gather the Army to attack, he received another military report.

Looking at the contents of the letter, the general’s face turned pale and he collapsed to the ground.

At the same time, more than a dozen business groups in the Beichen state suddenly moved. They gathered outside the state capital and launched a siege.

In less than an hour, the state capital had fallen. Hundreds of officials, including the state officials and the general of the garrison, had all been taken to the long Street and beheaded. The Beichen state had also completely lost control.
