Chapter 242: Abduction
The bedroom gradually became silent and only the emperor's breathing could be heard.
Su Xiao silently jumped down from the ceiling and immediately crouched down after landing.
Slowly walking forward, he silently stepped onto a large bed that was ten meters wide.
The Emperor was sleeping very soundly.
Guards were on duty near the entrance to the imperial chambers.
Taking out a bottle of liquid the size of a thumb, Su Xiao held it up to the emperor's nose, then lightly shook the bottle.
After a few seconds, the emperor's head tilted to the side, and saliva even flowed out of his mouth.
It was a sleeping pill with a super-strong effect. If this liquid was drunk by an ordinary person, they would most likely die, and not to mention the emperor, even an elephant would fall into a deep sleep because of this sleeping pill.
Su Xiao didn't want to pour it into the emperor's mouth. This teenager can only live for a week at most, and he will get into extra trouble if he dies at such a moment because of too strong a dose of sleeping pills.
After picking up the emperor and taking his clothes along with the minister's test tube, Su Xiao stood under the hole and jumped up to the ceiling.
After climbing up to the roof of the royal bedchamber with the emperor, Su Xiao quickly ran to the right place.
It was easy to kidnap the emperor, but Su Xiao used his identity to gain access to the palace's courtyards.
If it wasn't for the chaos in the capital, he wouldn't have been able to kidnap the emperor so easily.
There was almost always a general named Budo in the palace.
He was not as strong as Esdeath, and although Budo and Esdeath never fought at full strength, if they fought, he would have a forty percent chance of winning, while she would have a sixty percent chance of winning.
Apart from Esdes, there was no one else in the entire empire who could oppose Budo.
General Budo was old-fashioned and always served the royal family, controlled the palace, and was wholeheartedly loyal to the empire. He showed no respect for the minister, and because of this, Esdes and the minister called him " stubborn».
General Budo always followed the rules of his ancestors and believed that generals could not interfere in the affairs of the state, so he did not interfere in the affairs of the Minister and Esdes.
General Budo had a Teigu, and his Teigu was called "Adramelech". It was a Teigu in the form of gloves that could generate electricity and allowed the creation, shaping, and manipulation of electricity.
If he was in a palace, the emperor's bedroom would be covered in static electricity grids.
It would be impossible to get inside without being noticed.
But right now Budo was on the wall of the capital.
This was also the reason why Su Xiao didn't dare to enter the palace right away.
He didn't know where the contractors on the empire's side were, and since they were all under Budo's command and he was on the frontline, the other contractors had no other choice and were all on the frontline.
Of course, contractors will not always be on the front line, but it will take time for them to return.
Su Xiao came to a place where no one was around. He entered an empty hall that was used for storing priceless items.
He went to the oil lamp with the broken glass and lit it, then picked up the spool of thread.
After wrapping the thread around the emperor's neck, Su Xiao nodded when he saw that he could now chop off the emperor's head at any moment.
Su Xiao slapped the emperor's cheeks a couple of times, and the emperor groaned. After a few seconds, his eyes opened.
— What? Where am I? The emperor looked around in confusion.
— Where is the key to the Higher Teig? Su Xiao was standing nearby, and a dim oil lamp illuminated his eyes.
— What are you talking about? You thief dared... The emperor immediately realized what had happened, but suddenly felt a slight tingling sensation on his neck.
— One more time and you'll lose a finger on your hand, after the hands I'll move on to my feet.
The emperor hesitated, but decided not to shout. The sharp pain in his neck made him realize that his head could end up on the ground at any moment.
— Thief, even if you get the key, it will be useless, I can give you money and you will immediately disappear from my sight.
Although the emperor was stupid, the minister had taught him something.
— Money? Heh~, you can't give me the money I need. You really like women, don't you? Give me the key, otherwise you won't be interested in women anymore in the future, " Su Xiao said as he started twirling the dagger in his hand. He had very little time, so he needed to speed up a bit.
— Wait, I'll give it to you, no... don't come near me... The emperor started to crawl away, but immediately felt his neck begin to constrict.
The threads were wrapped around the emperor's neck, and the other end was tied to the spool on Su Xiao's wrist.
— Put on your clothes and walk in front, " Su Xiao tossed him his clothes.
— If we meet guards and you ask for help, I'll kill you and then run away.
The Emperor's eyes flashed. Naturally, he would immediately call for help as soon as they met the guards.
After dressing carefully, the emperor walked in front of Su Xiao and they left the room.
The threads were hard to detect, and Su Xiao was like an ordinary emperor's bodyguard at this moment.
The moonlight shone on Su Xiao's face, and the emperor froze when he saw him and tilted his head to the side.
— You're a subordinate of General Esdes, why are you doing this? The emperor's eyes were filled with despair. He saw Su Xiao and realized that he wasn't lying. He would really kill him and run away if anything happened.
— Don't be silly, you just need to give me the key to the high Teigu. I'll let you go after I get the key, " Su Xiao looked at the emperor with a smile. He finally didn't have to pretend to be a cold-blooded killer anymore.
— Good... The emperor finally understood the situation he was in.
— By the way, if you don't give me the key, I'll kill the minister after I kill you.
These words obviously struck a chord with the emperor — the minister was the closest person to him.
«What a naive teenager».
— I will give you the key, but you must not harm the minister, and you will have to let me go, " the emperor ground his teeth as his face filled with ferocity.
The reason why the emperor had promised to give him the key was because the key to the high Teigu required royal blood. It was useless for other people to try to steal this key. Creating a new key would take about a year or two.
— Go!
The Emperor reluctantly led the way.
They were going straight to the main palace. The key to the high Teigu was located next to the Teigu itself.
The so-called "Supreme Teigu" was actually a robot, and it was about a hundred meters tall.
He couldn't move and usually hid in the palace. The lower part of it was underground, and once a member of the royal family activated it, it would immediately burst out of the ground.
This Teigu was like an invincible tank that could fire very strong lasers. These lasers could reach any part of the capital and if necessary could wipe out the capital in just five minutes.
This Teigu is the best creation of the entire empire. Once the empire could create such things and its technology advanced at a very rapid pace, but in one moment everything was destroyed.
