The black smoke is billowing, the fire is raging, the snow is dark and the flags are withered, and the wind is blowing.
Thousands of soldiers from both warring sides looked toward the north bank of the Han River.
Snow fell from the sky. Before the snowflakes even hit the ground, they were baked away by the rising flames.
The undead knight Sebori held a spear and walked past the corpses of soldiers, through the crazy and cruel battlefield, and through ice and fire.
"Kill her! End this war! Kill her!" Emperor Guangde shouted hysterically from behind. His beard and hair were ignited by the flames, and a corner of his dragon robe was burned off. If the undead knight hadn't arrived in time, Emperor Daqi would have died. It has long been reduced to ashes in the dragon's breath.
And his sister, the eldest princess Liu Yufei, was currently lying on the back of the python's neck, looking down at her half-brother from a high position, with a thick layer of frost covering her brows, and her eyes filled with anger.
The first spear barely passed over Xuanwu's back, and the ice and fire collided, causing flying snowflakes to fall on the shoulders and back of the eldest princess.
"Burn."
Xuanwu rises into the sky and disappears among the clouds. The bottom of the python's throat gradually turns red, which is a precursor to the dragon's breath.
"Where is she! Kill her!" Liu Kan pointed to the sky and shouted crazily.
Seboli looked up at the sky. Under the black helmet, two will-o'-wisps were burning brightly.
He stretched out his right hand, and his subordinate handed over the second snow-colored spear.
He will hold the spear tightly, look towards the sky quietly, and slowly raise the spear.
The spear was fully charged in the hands of the undead knight, and the gun made a roaring sound. The undead knight took a few steps, put one foot on the ground, and threw it with all his strength.
There was a roaring sound and a huge shock wave that knocked hundreds of people in the surrounding area off their feet, and the nearest cart was torn in half...
The spear pierced the basalt python swooping down like a beam of light.
The giant python raised its neck and let out a thunderous roar. It did not dodge, but faced the muzzle of the spear and breathed dragon breath.
The blazing flames instantly overwhelmed the sharp ice spear. The collision of ice and fire burst out with amazing energy, and the burning flames lit up both sides of the Han River like the rising sun.
When the dazzling light dimmed, Liu Kan ignored his skin being burned by the flames and looked around quickly. The other soldiers also put down their weapons and looked at the sky.
The moment to witness history is coming soon.

"No. 30875. According to the information held by the Ministry of Friendship, in that deserted village, while you were probably being hunted by bounty hunters across the country, you took the time to watch a fantasy movie? The content is,"
The bald investigator raised his index finger and began to quickly look through the relevant data.
The battle between ice and fire in the holographic projection came to an abrupt end. The spear thrown by the undead knight flew towards the orange-red flames, the needle point facing the wheat light. The giant python ridden by the eldest princess hovered in mid-air. Only the blue snake scales were reflected by the firelight. It's so shiny that if you look closely, you can still see the lines on the snake's scales.
Anyway everything suddenly stopped.
"The content is about the Battle of Xiangyang. It is a banned film."
"Yes, is it illegal?"
"Of course not. Compared with the earth-shattering things you did on the way to escape, this is nothing at all."
"Number 30875, you are accused of twelve crimes, including the recent killing of multiple bounty hunters."
Qi Meng nodded impatiently, probably because the movie viewing was suddenly interrupted. The veins on his face were swollen, and he was obviously unhappy. ….
"I said, call me by name, I'm not a number! Also, against bounty hunters, it's just self-defense."
"Sorry, it affected your movie-watching experience just now." The bald man shrugged, "The Empire deals with tens of thousands of traitors like you every day. It is more efficient to archive your crimes digitally. way to avoid mistakes.”
"Tens of thousands?" Qi Meng was secretly proud. If there were really so many rebels, the rule of those old guys in the Senate would have ended.
"Indeed, as you just saw, betrayal - in your words, resistance - has never stopped, starting from the time of Qi Taizu until today."
"So." The bald man looked at Qi Meng seriously, and spoke in a tone as if he wanted to give the young traitor some advice:
"Except for killing bounty hunters, what you have done or want to do has been done many times by predecessors, such as the eldest princess Liu Yufei you saw in fantasy movies... It's a pity that you ended up The result is the same, they are destined to fail."
"Don't mistakenly think that you are a pioneer or a prophet," the investigator's voice was unusually calm, as if he was calculating a simple mathematical problem.
"You are just a programmer who accidentally touches the border of the empire. In essence, you are no different from the orangutan monkey in the zoo. You think you can see the wider world after crossing the wall. However, after climbing over the wall, you will Hit a high-voltage line."
"Then what are you?" Qi Meng retorted, "The hyena in the cage next door? An anus-digging enthusiast on the African grassland? Acting as an executioner and expecting your master to give you a piece of nine-turn large intestine?"
The bald investigator said without changing his expression: "This is a joke from decades ago. If it is used here, it is not funny at all. Moreover, your situation is not good now. You will be decomposed and become a clone..." ·
"so what!"
Qi Meng's cheeks were filled with blue veins: "In the past, in peacetime, we were only qualified to be human mines. Now, we don't want to be mines anymore. I belong to myself! Also, it was not a fantasy movie. What I saw was all real. If it really happened, you should call it a documentary.”
In any case, the self-awakening of a piece of ore is undoubtedly a tragedy.
"Documentary? An ancient art form?" The investigator pursed his lips and smiled.
"The movie thing is over. I heard that you not only watched the movie, but also took an old man away?"
Qi Meng did not deny it.
"Indeed, an innocent old man."
"No. 30875, I need to remind you again that no one involved in this rebellion is innocent."
Qi Meng was silent.
Is that old lady who loves to watch documentaries about the eldest princess still alive today?
The bald man carefully looked through all the interrogation records about Qi Meng: "I want to ask you a somewhat abstract question... Was your escape journey lonely?"
"Can I not answer your question?"
"No, the Ministry of Friendship needs to defend your dignity as a human being, even if you are a criminal wanted nationwide? We need to clearly understand all your crimes, including your motives. This is your right... ·
In this era where clones can enjoy rights, indigenous people like Qi Meng enjoy even more full rights.
"So, I need to be tortured by you, and then, do this to better protect my rights."
The bald investigator nodded: "It's okay to understand it this way."
"Please continue to describe, where did you go after leaving the deserted village? How many bounty hunters did you kill along the way? Also, why did you throw yourself into a trap?"
Dream of Wuyue
