Heaven's Formula

"You mean... these halls are the places where the hidden enemies are most likely to act after restraining the power of the Privy Council?" Fang Xiandao suddenly asked.

"Or a hall——" Xia Fan paused, "the Hall of Records that stores spells, magic weapon catalogs, and secrets that ordinary people cannot know."

"The problem is... wouldn't it be a good thing if the hidden enemies are really trying to plan for the Ministry of Records?" Li said disapprovingly, "The Privy Council and the mastermind behind the scenes must be the enemies of Jinxia City, and they will relax when they fight each other." Watch out for us."

"Having said that, those documents and letters are also very useful to us. At least the news about your master may be found in the list of alchemists."

These words made the fox demon tremble slightly.

Xia Fan went on to say, "In case the Privy Council is looted by the enemy and the documents are seriously lost or damaged, even if I gain the trust of the core members, I'm afraid I won't be able to get back the most complete information. Rather than handing over the initiative to the enemy, it is better to Let's go first by ourselves, and if we find something, it is naturally to investigate the enemy's situation, even if we find nothing... then we can achieve our own goals."

"I see." Qian Yan raised the corners of his mouth with great interest, "Whether the other party's guess is correct or not, it will not change the fact that the Privy Council is now an empty shell."

He nodded, "And the answers I found are often the most accurate and reliable."

"But, but... this is the Privy Council." Only Fang Yanni looked worried, "If we were caught, wouldn't it be a big deal? If there is no permission for a place like the Ministry of Records, breaking in without permission is a big problem." Death penalty..."

"I didn't break in without permission." Xia Fan chuckled, "Isn't this the mission of the Privy Council to investigate the truth of the assassination and prevent the planners from causing greater damage?"

Chapter 2 Seventy Infiltration Plan

"It makes sense." Li leaned over and looked towards the area where the Privy Council is located, "Then how can we get in? It's surrounded by soldiers."

"It's the imperial army." Fang Yanni added cautiously.

"Well, this is also the key to the success of the plan." Xia Fan spread out a roll of white paper, and began to outline the outline of the Privy Council on it with a charcoal pencil.

"Hmm... are you making a topographical map?" Qianyan sized it up for a while and said in amazement, "Surveying before the battle first, and then making a map based on the actual situation, this is a crucial part of a military strategist's small-scale battle. You can't even get this Do you have any experience?"

That’s not true, Xia Fan thought in his heart, he has traveled through the vast lonely city, sniped terrorists in the abandoned nuclear power plant area, and used a keel bow to silently slaughter ancient ruins, planning in advance and reading maps are basic skills . "I just think that when the time comes to formulate a plan, there is a picture that can make it clearer."

Apparently the crown prince also knew that the Privy Council Mansion was extraordinary, and he should have taken control of the place on the night of the accident. At this time, not only could the imperial guards be stationed on the street, but there were also troops stationed in the mansion.Even on the roof of the main hall of the General Mansion, one can vaguely see the figures of crossbowmen.

If one wants to enter it, rather than passing through the Privy Council, it is better to hide it from Ning Weiyuan's eyes and ears first.

"The first thing to do is to wait until after nightfall." Xia Fan said while drawing, "The safest way to enter is to use the height of the houses on the street and directly jump over the fence from the roof, so that you don't have to worry about leaving footprints or other tracking clues During the day, there are people on all sides of the street, so it's hard not to be noticed, only at night, you have the opportunity to sneak in by using the blind spots of the defenders."

He clicked twice on the southeast corner of the paper, "This corner has the largest blind spot. Even if there is a patrol team, you have to stick out of the wall completely to see the situation on the other side. According to observations at this time, at least... well, More than half an hour."

"Qianzhi can knock them all out without being noticed!" the little girl enthusiastically signed up.

"But those who are stunned will realize that there is a problem with the defense when they wake up." Luo thought lightly, "Unless we withdraw from the Privy Council that night."

"One day is definitely not enough, three or four days is normal. So you can't disturb anyone when you go in." Xia Fan pointed to the roof, "It's not difficult to avoid the people on the ground, but the guards stationed at the top of the Lingbu hall are very troublesome .If you spend another night observing their changing rules, you will spend another whole day less time for the search here."

Considering that possible enemies are also attacking the attention of the Privy Council, the sooner the action is naturally the better.

"It's better not to use Kanshu." Li suggested.

"The premise of Kekan technique is to see the other party."

"The fox form can also be activated. I don't think they should pay too much attention to a fox, right?"

"Hmm... what do you think?" Xia Fan looked at Qianyan.

"The chance is half to half." The latter said without hesitation, "Those who are weak-willed may indeed forget the abnormalities before the operation, but those who have been tempered will definitely remember how they fell into hallucinations."

When everyone was thinking about the solution, Fang Yanni suddenly raised her hand.

"Uh... maybe I have a way."

"Oh? Tell me about it?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she couldn't help but feel a little stuck, "I can... control some flying insects, such as black bees, flowers and butterflies, and of course... snakes and scorpions are also fine. If you let them harass these guards, Maybe you can force the other party to leave your position temporarily."

"If we go to find the poisonous bug now, will there be time?" Li Qi asked.

"You don't need to look for it. The Fang family usually carry it with them." Fang Xiandao replied on behalf of his senior sister, "There are poisonous snakes and black bees in the silver crown on her head."

Everyone took a breath.

Fang Yanni's cheeks turned red, as if she regretted speaking.

"Ahem, it turns out that the Fang family still has this kind of secret technique. It really deserves to be... one of the six great families." Xia Fan comforted, "If you can successfully enter the mansion, you will be the first!"

"But the recording department itself should also guard against special intruders, right?" Luo mused softly, "In places like Gyeonggi Province, it is likely that conventional means will not be used as access control."

"You're right." Qian Yan chuckled, "It's an important place with all kinds of traps and magic weapons. If you break in without authorization, even high-level alchemists will have their lives in danger."

"How do you know?" Xia Fan raised his eyebrows.

"Because I've been in there before...well, a long, long time ago."

Well, Xia Fan shut his mouth. At this time, he just needs to pass cigarettes to the other party and wear sunglasses.

"Then take me with you." Luo gently said proactively, "At least I can observe the change and flow of qi, and ordinary magical organs can't stop me."

Xia Fan nodded.

Considering that if something happened inside the Privy Council, people outside would have no time to support him, so he really needed a strong partner to sit by his side.

"I'm definitely going." Li Dangren patted his chest, obviously she never thought about the possibility of staying outside the mansion.

"For the sake of taking in the Fang family... I will reluctantly accompany you for a walk." Qian Yan raised his head slightly, "The Fang family never owes favors."

Seeing the other party's head raised, Xia Fan couldn't help but patted, "Thank you."

Qian Yan suddenly covered his head, his eyes showing surprise.

After the filming, he realized that something was wrong.

"Uh...sorry, I subconsciously stretched out my hand seeing you are small..."

"It's too rude." Li pressed his head and pressed down, "This guy is often stupid, don't take it to heart."

"...It's okay, I've seen a lot of stupid people, and there is no shortage of him." Qian Yan said indifferently, but felt a little strange in his heart - he didn't feel much offended.

Maybe it's because the vast majority of people have regarded her as an undead in the past hundred years?

"Qianzhi also wants to—"

Before Qianzhi finished speaking, Fang Xiandao covered her mouth.

"No, you don't want to go. It's not a place where you can hang out easily. You'd better stop dragging people down."

Xia Fan also felt the same way, he glanced at everyone, "Since the plan has been made, then—"

"Wait," Li suddenly interrupted, "I have doubts. The enemies guessed by the envoy Xinwu are all foreigners from the West Pole, right?"

"At present, there are four or five envoys from the suspect country. What's the matter?"

"I'm thinking, if I bump into this group of people and they're plotting something, won't they miss an opportunity to obtain information because they don't understand the language they speak? Wouldn't that be a pity? "

Yes, he almost forgot the "business"!

If he could overhear some useful information, he would be better off if the Privy Council asked him afterwards.

The question is, who understands the language of the West Pole?

The first thing Xia Fan thought of was Miss Luobaike.

"This..." Luo gently felt his gaze, and felt a little embarrassed, "The West Pole is just a general term. There are many countries there, and the languages ​​​​are different. I just want to know some of their customs and habits. I have a little understanding of the fur, but the language...hasn't mastered yet."

No, this is a very normal thing, why do you need to answer in such a remorseful tone.

Xia Fan couldn't help but feel a little guilty about his foreign language test scores that he had studied hard for eight years and then failed.

After much deliberation, only the elves can hope to solve this problem.

——If he can set up the audio device and antenna in the Privy Council.

Chapter 271 Inside the Hall

When the sound of clappers sounded, the bustling long street was empty on weekdays.

After the assassination of the prince, the capital city, which has not had a curfew for decades, has entered a state of alert again. Shops can only be opened until Haishi at most, and residents are not allowed to stay out overnight.This ban seems to have strengthened the security of the capital, but in fact it opened the door of convenience for Xia Fan.

The night without pedestrians and lights is the best cover.

Everyone climbed up to the roofs of the buildings across the street from the Privy Mansion one by one—these masonry houses facing the street basically have three floors, and the ridge of the roof exceeds the top of the wall, so they can easily peek into the situation behind the wall.

After circling around the Privy Mansion, Li returned to his hiding place and nodded to everyone, "Everything is normal, and the defense of the Imperial Guard is basically the same as during the day."

Xia Fan took a deep breath.

"Very good. After Xinwu is in place, we will start to act."

"So when you entered Luo's room, did you prepare like this?" Luo asked suddenly in a low voice.

"Uh... It's easier to speak alone, but the process is basically the same... Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

"No... I just think it's quite expert. No wonder the guard disciple I arranged is useless. Now that I think about it, it's normal to lose to you."

Xia Fan was dumbfounded.

"Does the listener even teach this? Heaven really knows everything." Qianzhi sighed.

"I don't think so," Li pouted, "it's more like the accumulation of his daily life - when he wandered with Master, he must have done a lot of it."

Hey, the more you say it, the more outrageous it is.

Just when Xia Fan wanted to defend himself, there was a sudden commotion from the direction of the gate of the Privy Council Mansion.

A few alchemists rushed out of the street, as if they wanted to break into the Privy Council, but were forced to stop by the imperial guards with long spears.The alchemist did not use spells, but argued loudly with the guards. In the quiet night, even if they were more than a hundred meters away, they could vaguely hear the sound even if they were hiding on the roof.

"I have important tasks to attend to, so why can't I enter the headquarters?"

"Can you be responsible for delaying the matter of the Privy Council?"

"His Royal Highness ordered that all alchemists on the register must be investigated. Are you planning to disobey?"

"Take them!"

The clash drew patrols on both sides, leaving the street a brief blind spot.

——It was almost the same as the time agreed by Xinwu.

"action!"

Xia Fan immediately put away all distracting thoughts and said in a deep voice.

"Immortal art, dragon scale." Luo lightly drew out a thin flying sword, and Qianzhi immediately tied a bundle of hemp rope to its end.Then the former controlled the flying sword to cross the long street and the wall of the Privy Council Courtyard, and wrapped the rope around a tree.

"Then... let's go."

"Be careful." Fang Xiandao said with rare seriousness.

"Don't worry, I will." Xia Fan nodded.

"In case... I mean, in case something happens, please send Qianyan. She can't make mistakes." He added another sentence.

Xia Fan immediately took back all the positive comments.

"Young Master, Crow's Mouth." Qianzhi muttered.

"This is a good reminder!"

While speaking, Li had already transformed into a fox, and easily stepped on the rope to reach the mansion.

"next."

Qian Yan also walked like flying, his light body was almost weightless, and he passed the long street at a trot all the way.

Although Luo Qingqing was a circle bigger than the living dead, and his eyes could not see things in the distance clearly, but with the flexibility of his body and strong sense of balance, he actually walked over the rope.

To be honest, this is not the same as Xia Fan expected.He thought that everyone had to grab the rope and climb over, but he didn't expect his teammates to be very skilled, and he became the slowest one instead.

But things have come to this point, forcing everything is a secondary matter.He rolled up his sleeves and began to cross the street holding tight to the rope.

At this time, an accident happened suddenly.

While the guards at the gate were still tying up the alchemist, a team unexpectedly broke away from the crowd and walked towards the corner of the street.

Since it was an unconventional patrol route, they only needed about thirty breaths to cross the corner.

Fang Xiandao was the first to notice this situation.He immediately gestured to Xia Fan, but at this time Xia Fan had climbed to the middle of the road, and it would take the same amount of time to return or continue forward.

For the alchemist, this time is enough to reach the destination, but the hemp rope still in the air will become a clue to expose everyone!

"Qianzhi, good at responding." The little girl pointed to the road the other was walking, "Icing...jutsu!"

A piece of inconspicuous frost quickly spread on the ground, and because they were covered by the shadow of the wall, they couldn't be detected by naked eyes at all.

The soldiers walking in the front stepped on it without warning.

Then he fell solidly to the ground.

"Damn! This place is so slippery!"
