Chapter 444 Night Raid on the East Guardian Pavilion, an Encounter with Mochizuki Kaoru
"Didn't you go to that Japanese woman's room to check things out before giving yourself any benefits?" Jiang Han looked at Mo Fan, who was somewhat angry, with suspicion.
In the original story, after Mo Fan learned about Mochizuki Chika's room from a Japanese guard, his curiosity was piqued, so he used Shadow Step to sneak into Mochizuki Chika's room. As luck would have it, he encountered Mochizuki Chika just after taking a bath.
Jiang Han's dislike for the Japanese is mainly due to the remnants of the war effort during the War of Resistance Against Japan!
Japanese girls can be used to pay off the debts of one's elders, such as getting some benefits from them for appreciation, or having a one-night stand. As for taking responsibility, sorry, he can't do that. (Commonly known as "ruthless after taking what he wants!")
"Jiang Han, stop slandering me out of thin air," Mo Fan said indignantly.
Mo Fan originally planned to go to Wang Yue Qianxun's room to take a look, but in order to have a reliable teammate in Dong Shou Ge, he came directly to find Jiang Han. Who knew that Jiang Han would think of him as such a despicable person? Is Mo Fan that kind of person?
Jiang Han felt much better upon hearing this, but still casually replied, "I thought you would sneak into someone's boudoir first?"
"Am I that kind of person? Don't compare me to someone like Zhao Manyan who wants to spread his seed all over the world," Mo Fan said.
"Tsk tsk, you talk like you're so innocent. If you were really that innocent, what kind of study materials are in your cloud drive?" Jiang Han said with a sneer.
Mo Fan was surprised that Jiang Han brought up his past embarrassing history, so he awkwardly changed the subject and said, "I came to you to discuss how to get into Dongshou Pavilion."
"Alright," Jiang Han nodded and said.
The two then secretly left their residence. Mo Fan could use Shadow Step to stealth, but Jiang Han could only rely on Mo Fan to scout ahead and avoid the patrolling mage guards. This made Jiang Han realize the trouble of not having a shadow-type stealth skill. As for using spatial magic to teleport directly to the East Guardian Pavilion, that would have to wait until he could instantly cast high-level spatial magic.
The two found a secluded spot and jumped from the window of the central pavilion near the cliff. As they fell, howling winds constantly rushed past their ears. Jiang Han spread his Azure Cloud Wings and then picked up the falling Mo Fan, flying towards the cliff face on the side of the East Guardian Pavilion.
Neither Jiang Han nor Mo Fan knew the layout of the barrier, so they could only risk entering by relying on Jiang Han's Thunder Dragon Armguard. As for whether they would be blocked by the guarding mages after they came out, the answer was naturally no!
As for the reason, Jiang Han had already planned it out. Once he got his hands on the Condensed Evil Pearl, he would summon Long Da and Long Er to feign an attack on the Double Guard Pavilion to draw fire, while he and Mo Fan could take the opportunity to return to their respective rooms.
After approaching the restrictions of the East Guardian Pavilion, Jiang Han activated the Thunder Dragon Armguard and condensed a purple barrier. Mo Fan then took the opportunity to use dark power to shroud the two of them, thus concealing their presence.
The alarm of the siren's attack prompted a large number of guard mages to go to the upper pavilion to prepare for battle, thus reducing the number of mages guarding the eastern pavilion. This also meant that the restrictions on the eastern pavilion did not attract much attention after being triggered.
Pale arcs of electricity bombarded the purple barrier relentlessly. These arcs were thick and winding, several times larger than a normal mage's lightning bolts. The arcs were stored in the energy bar of the Thunder Dragon Armguard under the barrier's transformation.
When the two passed through the barrier of the East Guardian Pavilion, one of the four energy slots of the Thunder Dragon Armguard was filled. This gave Jiang Han an urge to use the lightning of the barrier to fill the energy slot of the Thunder Dragon Armguard.
The battle in the ancient capital had depleted Jiang Han's energy reserves, which he had accumulated over a long period of time. Now that he finally had a "power bank," how could Jiang Han not be excited?
The four energy bars represent four high-level lightning spells, ever since the Thunder Dragon Armguard was upgraded by the Totem Serpent.
The Thunder Dragon Armguards allow you to cast different levels of high-level lightning magic depending on the amount of energy consumed. Consuming three energy bars is enough to cast a level three high-level lightning spell.
If this were combined with his Soul Seed Prison Breaking Cloud Thunder, its power would be no less than that of some super-level magic. Do you think this would prevent Jiang Han from having the idea of filling his energy bar?
"Holy crap, Jiang Han, your magic tool is really awesome! It can even block such a powerful restrictive lightning spell." Mo Fan, who was being carried by Jiang Han, couldn't help but exclaim.
"We're almost at the East Guardian Pavilion. Be careful later." Jiang Han said, then led Mo Fan to the cliff face on the side of the East Guardian Pavilion.
There was nowhere to step on the steep cliff, but fortunately Jiang Han used ice magic to create an ice ladder on the cliff, allowing the two to climb up. When they got close to the top, Mo Fan turned into a shadow and sneaked in.
After Mo Fan confirmed that there were no patrolling mages, Jiang Han quickly leaped to the top of the cliff and entered the East Guardian Pavilion. The corridors inside the pavilion were very narrow and there were thick walls everywhere. The pavilion was filled with an eerie atmosphere, somewhat like some kind of curse magic.
"According to historical records, the curse array inside the East Guardian Pavilion was tested by the island nation scum during the War of Resistance against Japan, using countless Chinese lives. Who could have imagined that these remnants would use the pretext of judging prisoners to condense an evil crystal—the Condensed Evil Pearl!"
"Those remnants never imagined that this formation would give birth to a powerful red demon!!"
Suddenly, countless gray-blue vines shot out from the corridor. If Mo Fan, who was walking in front, hadn't instantly transformed into a shadow and escaped, he might have been bound into a dumpling by these vines. Jiang Han, on the other hand, used his cold air to freeze the vines into ice sculptures and then shatter them.
"You're not patrolling people, who are you?" A woman dressed in black emerged from the side of the corridor, looking at Jiang Han and his companion warily.
Jiang Han sized up the woman he had encountered. Her black outfit clung tightly to her body, outlining her perfect figure, which was comparable to that of an anime character. He figured she must be Mochizuki Chika, who had also sneaked into the East Guardian Pavilion at night.
The latest novel is first published here!
"Miss Qianxun has quite the refined taste, coming to the prison in black clothes to stroll around late at night instead of sleeping," Jiang Han said with a hint of amusement, not answering Qianxun's question.
"You are Chinese people during the day. What are you doing here?" Mochizuki Chika asked coldly.
After Mochizuki Chika's brother Tsuruta went missing, she commissioned the Soshoku Tribunal to investigate the cause of Tsuruta's disappearance. However, after a long investigation, there was still no news, which made Mochizuki Chika suspect that someone had kidnapped Tsuruta.
In the Twin Guardian Pavilion, the only people who had conflicts with Tsuruta were General Takagi and Kentaro Gono, so Chika Mochizuki suspected that it was General Takagi and others who arrested Tsuruta and imprisoned him in the East Guardian Pavilion.
In order to confirm whether Tsuruta was being held in the East Guardian Pavilion prison, Mochizuki Chika planned to sneak into the East Guardian Pavilion tonight to investigate, but unexpectedly she ran into Jiang Han and Mo Fan there.
