Chapter 307 Temporary Refuge in the Bunker
10:30 PM
Yu Zetong's elite assassins launched armed operations against the various targets on schedule, as planned.
"His Majesty!"
"A large number of armed men are besieging the palace!"
"To ensure Your Majesty's safety, please take refuge in the bunker for the time being!"
"what?"
"Take refuge in the bunker?" Shen Moshen frowned as he listened to the sounds of gunfire outside. "What? Do you think the palace guards would allow these armed men to break into the palace?"
"Your Majesty, the force besieging the palace is an armed force, numbering at least several thousand!"
"Although the palace's defenses are absolutely foolproof, but..."
"If everything is foolproof, then why do I need to take refuge in the bunker?"
"If the outside world knew that the mighty Emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty was forced to hide in a bunker in the capital by a group of armed men who appeared out of nowhere, that would be a huge joke!"
"This is not just a joke, it's a disgrace to the entire Great Qian Dynasty!"
"I want to see just how much these rebellious soldiers, who have eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard, are really capable of."
"I'll be waiting in the Imperial Study!"
"Your Majesty!" the imperial aide on duty immediately advised, "These militants are carrying a large number of light and heavy weapons."
"If they set up mortars and bombard key targets in the palace, Your Majesty staying here will inevitably increase unnecessary risks!"
"Your Majesty is the ruler of the nation, and the safety of the country rests on your shoulders. You must not risk your life as a true dragon!"
"The palace bunker was built specifically as a refuge for His Majesty in case of an emergency."
"Your Majesty, please prioritize the well-being of the nation and the people, and move to the bunker as soon as possible for temporary refuge!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Kong Xueyi, the leader of the Imperial Guard on duty responsible for Shen Moshen's personal protection, also advised, "In order to ensure Your Majesty's absolute safety, according to the Imperial Security Plan, in this situation, Your Majesty must go to the bunker for temporary refuge!"
"If Your Majesty does not seek refuge in the bunker, then it will be our dereliction of duty."
"Neglect of duty before the Emperor is a capital offense!"
"Your Majesty, please proceed to the bunker immediately for temporary refuge..."
"What happened today has truly captured the attention of the entire world!" Shen Moshen did not immediately agree, but stared at the news footage on the television, his tone revealing an unspeakable anger.
"The land of the Great Qian Dynasty, known as the most prosperous and safest city in the world that never sleeps—it truly is 'sleepless' tonight!"
"Okay!"
"very good!"
"It seems that everything we're doing now is making more and more people lose their composure and become desperate!"
"I want to see what kind of 'surprises' these black sheep within the Great Qian Dynasty can bring to the Great Qian!"
"Back then, the Western Luo Kingdoms formed a powerful alliance under the name of resisting Qian to fight against our Great Qian, and we didn't cause such a big mess!"
"Even when the Western Luo Kingdoms were at their most powerful, they couldn't act recklessly in the capital despite all the actions they took."
"Today, these traitors have taught the world a lesson!"
"At the very least—they proved one thing to the world through their actions."
"That is—if these black sheep within our Great Qian were truly pushed to the limit and acted recklessly, they would be far more 'capable' than the anti-Qian alliance formed by the entire Western Luo world back then!"
"They really have the 'capability'—they actually managed to besiege the palace!"
"It even forced the emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty to hide in a bunker because of this!"
Shen Moshen's tone grew increasingly cold: "Tell them—make sure to leave a few survivors for me!"
"Let the secret intelligence agency pry them open."
"I want to know the whole story!"
"Alright, since this is a rule in the Imperial Security Code, I won't make things difficult for you."
"Let's go!"
Faced with everyone's persistent urging, Shen Moshen finally relented: "Let's go to the bunker for temporary refuge..."
"It's really ironic..."
"Even when the fighting with the Western Luo Kingdoms was at its most intense, I never went down to hide in the bunker!"
"Now look what's happened..."
Shen Moshen shook his head: "We were actually forced into the bunker by our own people..."
-------------------------------------
"Brother Feng, if nothing unexpected happens, our commando team should be able to reach Qianji Gate with 'Super One' in an hour."
"If 'Super One' is detonated, we should be able to feel the explosive force here, right?"
Feng Zhannian's eyes were fixed on the live news report on television: "Can we know whether the operation was successful or not just by listening to the sounds?"
"As long as 'Super One' explodes, this should be done, right?"
"uncertain................"
Yu Zetong shook his head: "My orders to the assault team were—if they really couldn't break through to Qianji Gate..."
"We must detonate 'Super One' at the last moment!"
"As long as Super One is detonated, we will definitely be able to feel it here."
"However, whether it will be detonated at Qianji Gate depends on our fate tonight..."
Yu Zetong paused, then said in a deep voice, "If 'Super One' hadn't been detonated in the Qianji Gate area, it might have led to the failure to kill Shen Moshen!"
"However, all of this is based on the premise that Shen Moshen did not hide in the underground bunker of the palace in advance."
"If Shen Moshen managed to hide in the bunker before 'Super One' was detonated, then our operation will have been a complete failure..."
"Shen Moshen is such a proud person, he wouldn't hide in a bunker over such a 'small matter,' would he?"
"Right? Brother Yu?" Feng Zhannian said, trying to reassure himself and ease his tension.
As the siege of the palace officially began, Yu Zetong and Feng Zhannian inevitably found themselves in a relatively tense state.
In particular, Feng Zhannian's constant hand-rubbing and swallowing of saliva clearly indicated his state of tension.
Even Yu Zetong, who had generally maintained a good level of composure, couldn't help but feel tense and anxious after the siege of the palace began.
However, this is understandable—it cannot be said that Yu Zetong and Feng Zhannian had poor psychological qualities.
On the contrary—Yu Zetong and Feng Zhannian's performance at this time was already quite good.
At such a tense moment, someone with slightly weaker mental fortitude would probably be on their way to the toilet...
After all, they are doing something that no one has ever done before.
Moreover, it's something no one has ever succeeded at before...
-------------------------------------
"I don't think it's that bad..."
"Probably not!" After a slight pause, Yu Zetong immediately gave a self-comforting answer: "Who is Shen Moshen?"
"That was the eternal ruler who unified the entire world single-handedly!"
"Such people have their own arrogance..."
"Although we did make quite a commotion this time."
"But it shouldn't be enough to catch Shen Moshen's eye, right?"
"The commotion we've caused is nothing compared to Shen Moshen's minor situation."
"It would be absurd for him to hide in the bunker because of this."
"Brother Feng..."
"You agree, right?" Yu Zetong, his forehead already beaded with sweat from excessive tension, asked the same question back to Feng Zhannian, who was equally tense.
"Brother Yu's analysis makes sense."
Feng Zhannian swallowed hard: "It shouldn't be that bad. Such a degrading act is not befitting Shen Moshen's status..."
"Yeah!"
"The current emperor is a great ruler throughout history, and his actions are always domineering and imposing."
Yu Zetong wiped the sweat from his forehead: "How could the Emperor be forced into the bunker by us!"
"Definitely not..."
While comforting each other, Yu Zetong and Feng Zhannian simultaneously picked up their teacups, wanting to drink some water to ease their tension.
"There's no water left..."
"yes.............."
"Brother Feng, why is your hand shaking so much as you hold the teacup?"
"What? Brother Feng, are you scared?"
"Am I shaking?" Feng Zhannian pressed down on his slightly trembling right hand and struggled to put the teacup back on the table.
"Brother Yu, is it your hand that's shaking...?"
Feng Zhannian pointed to Yu Zetong, whose hands were also trembling badly.
A snap.
As soon as Feng Zhannian finished speaking, the teacup in Yu Zetong's hand fell to the ground, shattering into pieces...
"My hand is cramping...it's numb..."
Yu Zetong then explained.
"Brother Yu, take it easy..." Feng Zhannian said, feigning composure. "My heart can't take it if there's even a little noise now."
"Stimulate!"
"That was so exciting!"
"What we did today was absolutely thrilling..." Feng Zhannian clutched his chest, panting heavily. "Brother Yu, regardless of whether we succeed or not..."
"We did things that others wanted to do but didn't have the chance to do!"
"Brother Feng's words are very insightful!" Yu Zetong nodded: "Brother Feng is right—we won't lose out whether this matter succeeds or not!"
"................."
"what?"
"Brother Feng?"
"What's wrong with you?"
Not hearing Feng Zhannian's response, Yu Zetong turned his head and saw that Feng Zhannian was trembling as he pulled a medicine bottle from his pocket and tried to open the cap...
"Medicine! Quick-acting heart-saving pills..."
Because his hands were shaking so badly, Feng Zhannian fiddled with the bottle for a while but couldn't open it. Instead, he accidentally let the medicine bottle roll onto the ground.
"Brother Yu..."
"medicine!"
"help me.................."
Feng Zhannian's expression grew increasingly pained, and he then turned to Yu Zetong for help.
"I'll help you pick it up..."
Yu Zetong immediately got up to help Feng Zhannian pick up the medicine bottle that had rolled onto the ground.
But when Yu Zetong tried to stand up, he found that he was too tense to stand up for a moment!
"Brother Yu..."
"Medicine..." Seeing that Yu Zetong did not get up, Feng Zhannian, who was in increasing pain, urged again.
........................
A few minutes later.
Seeing Feng Zhannian collapse on the ground because he hadn't taken his medicine in time, Yu Zetong sighed, "Brother Feng, you seem quite anxious..."
"Even medicine is no longer needed..."
As he spoke, Yu Zetong took out the bottle containing poison from his pocket and poured the two poison pills onto the table.
Learning from past mistakes, Yu Zetong worried that he might end up like Feng Zhannian, unable to even open the medicine bottle when he needed to take his medication.
Therefore, Yu Zetong poured the medicine onto the table in advance to ensure he could easily take it when needed.................
"Whoo~"
Looking at Feng Zhannian, who died prematurely due to the pressure, Yu Zetong said with a wry smile, "Brother Feng, the result is not yet out, and you left before the outcome is clear."
"If this really goes through, you'll be at a huge loss."
"However, on the other hand, it might not be a bad thing for you to leave a little earlier."
"The sooner you leave, the sooner you'll be free..."
Yu Zetong looked at the television screen and muttered to himself, "The more agonizing the situation, the more unbearable it is."
"The main event has been going on for almost an hour."
"I don't know if I can endure it..."
