Congratulations on being an NPC

Chapter 75 Countdown to Server Opening

"..."

Yano stood in front of the service desk and turned his head to look outside.

Chaotic and noisy voices reached his ears through the loose glass door from time to time.

The desk staff has disappeared,
When Arno came down from upstairs, there was only Sophia waiting for him.

"What's going on outside?"

Sophia grabbed Arno's cuff and asked timidly.

It's normal for her to be afraid.

Just 1 minute ago, there was a lunatic outside who wanted to rush in, knocked down the glass door and fell down.

It's still lying on the ground in front of the glass door.

"nothing."

"No matter what happens, I will protect you."

Arno patted Sophia's hand lightly, and said softly.

The wind howls outside,

Through the small gap in the glass door, it was introduced to Arno.

The chill of the wind was blocked by the glass door, but it brought a scream.

It's like the sky is crying, and it's like the sound of scissors scratching the iron plate, which makes people feel creepy.

Arno looked at Sophia,
Sure enough, her body has shrunk.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the surrounding corridors.

Sophia quickly moved her body into Arno's arms.

Yano smiled helplessly, hugged her, and turned to look at the corridor.

A group of guard soldiers in armor trotted up to her.

"It's a good thing I found you, are you all right?"

Yano shook his head and asked in a deep voice.

"What's going on outside?"

Because there was a rain shield outside the glass door, which blocked Arno's view, he didn't see the hole in the sky.

But it can be roughly guessed that this is because the server is about to open.

"Don't you know? There's a big hole in the sky outside."

"Now heretics and terrorists are making trouble in the capital, that lord asked us to protect you."

That person was probably Evie.

Her identity is special, and she doesn't have a code name, and she is usually called vaguely.

"terrorist?"

Arno frowned.

"Yes, it's very chaotic outside right now."

"I suggest you take it to the hospital, we can protect you better."

"If you need it, you can—"

The soldier wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by Yano waving his hand.

"Don't talk about this first, what about the defense and security forces of the capital?"

"This...they didn't move out, I don't know why, you know, our intelligence network..."

The SS soldier smiled awkwardly at this point.

Except for the error-corrector intelligence network that Arno personally won, the old aristocratic forces in the capital are no different from blind people.

"I asked an idiotic question."

Arnold was speechless.

"boom!"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise.

The hospital seemed to shake a bit.

Arno narrowed his eyes and looked out the door.

However, nothing was seen, and the outside was still the same as before.

"What's going on!? What happened?"

The soldier of the pro-guard looked serious, and called the people at the headquarters through the headset to ask.

"What? The building collapsed?"

"..."

"Well...I see."

He hung up the phone and looked at Yano.

"My lord, good news. It seems that the military committee has taken action. The current situation should be stabilized soon."

Military Council?
Mother made a move?Or someone else?

Arno thought for a while.

"What happened to the explosion just now?"

"It seems that terrorists detonated explosives in the building, intending to carry out terrorist acts by blowing up the building."

Terrorists have so much explosives, enough to blow up the building?

The empire's control over gunpowder is relatively strict, let alone a large amount of gunpowder. Unless you are blind, it is impossible for the empire's departments not to find out.

The direction of gunpowder has always been under strict monitoring.

After thinking about it, Arno asked.

"Are there any civilian casualties?"

The soldier was taken aback, asked a few words through the headset, and then replied to Yano.

"No, it seems that because of the alarm robot, the surrounding civilians escaped."

It sounds reasonable.

But the doubts in it cannot be ignored.

However, this has nothing to do with Yano, he just asked casually and didn't intend to delve into it.

[There is 1 minute left before the server starts. 】

[The countdown starts now. 】

【59...】

【58...】

Hearing the sound of the machine next to his ear, Yano turned his head to look outside the door again.

In his line of sight, the sky suddenly turned black.

There were no omens, nor any extraordinary movements.

Just suddenly, like someone flipped a light switch, the world was plunged into darkness.

"what happened?!"

The soldiers were in a hurry and quickly surrounded Yano and Sophia.

"What? The sky is cracked? Are you kidding me?"

Listening to the nonsense in the earphones, the soldier's face turned red with anger.

Although the personal guards have always been useless, he still feels angry when he loses the chain at this time.

"My lord, I'm really sorry, please stay where you are, we will definitely protect your safety."

The soldier apologized to Arno.

"Do not……"

"Open the door and let me out."

When Yano's voice fell, he could clearly feel that Sophia grabbed his hand tightly.

However, Yano didn't care as if he didn't find out.

This is the moment when the server opens, and he must witness it with his own eyes.

"Let me see the true face of this world."

Yano said softly in his heart.

"My lord, absolutely not."

The soldiers tried to dissuade Arno.

This is complicating their work.

If it was someone else, he would have copied the other party away long ago, how could he allow the other party to be so presumptuous?
Just facing Yano, they have no other way but to dissuade them.

"There will be no danger."

Arno glanced at the soldier and said calmly.

"If you can't protect others from danger and can only live in a safe place, how can I prove your ability?"

"...Pro-Guards, aren't you a little behind?"

Yano said the latter sentence in a low voice.

However, the soldiers heard it clearly.

What does outdated mean?
That's pretty clear.

Either reorganization or dissolution.

With Arnold's current influence in the old aristocratic faction, this kind of thing can be done.

"...Yes, this subordinate will open the door."

The soldier swallowed a mouthful of saliva, pulled himself together, and asked the surrounding men to open the door.

In an instant, the strong wind poured down, and the wind was so strong that the soldiers were a little unsteady.

Only Arno's body stood up straight.

"you……"

Sophia looked at Arno's face with the faint light, and was taken aback for a moment.

That was the indifference that Alexander never showed on his face.

For a moment, she felt that this person was not the husband she had been with day and night.

But just when she was about to ask, a strong wind poured into her mouth, making her unable to speak.

"Protect Madam."

Arno glanced coldly at the stumbling soldiers, and let go of Sophia's hand.

The warmth she brought to Arno was fleeting, and then turned to coldness.

then,

Arno walked out the door.
