My Antique Mirror Is A Portal To Another World-Chapter 626: Chaos

Seeing that Bai Hanyun was ready, Gao Gong exchanged glances with Wu Jun and Bao Shengjie. Then the three of them jumped off the rooftop without hesitation.

As they descended at high speed, Bai Hanyun closed her eyes tightly.

A few seconds later, they landed lightly on the ground.

"Miss Bai, you can get down now," Gao Gong informed her in a low voice.

Bai Hanyun opened her eyes and quickly climbed down from his back. With Bao Shengjie’s help, she removed the rappelling gear.

After packing away the ropes and equipment, Wu Jun handed out night-vision goggles.

Once everyone had put them on, he instructed quietly, "Stay close. Let’s go."

While Bai Hanyun and the others followed Wu Jun to the flower garden, Hua Yuyu and his team split into smaller groups and moved toward different locations.

Avoiding the imperial guards, Hua Yuyu hid in the shadows and pressed the communication device on his left ear.

"This is Alpha One. The explosives have been installed. Report your progress," he said in a low voice.

A second later, Xie Wei’s voice came through the earpiece. "This is Alpha Two. The explosives have been installed. Now on our way to the flower garden. Over."

After he finished, Wang Kaiye’s voice followed. "This is Alpha Three. The explosives have been installed. Proceeding to the flower garden. Over."

Receiving their reports, Hua Yuyu replied, "This is Alpha One. Gather at the flower garden in five minutes. Over."

A second after he gave the order, Xie Wei and Wang Kaiye responded simultaneously, "Roger that."

Now that they had completed the explosive installations, Hua Yuyu rushed toward the flower garden, following the shortest route he had already mapped out in his mind.

While the three teams hurried toward the flower garden, Wu Jun and the others had already arrived nearby.

Seeing that no one was around, Wu Jun controlled the small butterfly drone to scan the area. After confirming it was clear, he nodded to the others.

"Let’s go."

As soon as he spoke, the four of them dashed from their hiding place toward the only open space in the center of the flower garden.

Two minutes later, Bai Hanyun was patting her chest while gasping for breath. Noticing that she was the only one who looked like a fish out of water, she made a firm decision.

Clenching her hands, resolution flickered across her eyes. ’This won’t do! I need to train my stamina after we return! I can’t become a burden on our team.’

While Bai Hanyun was still catching her breath, Wu Jun looked at Gao Gong and nodded.

Receiving the signal, Gao Gong quickly took out a military transport helicopter from his Qiankun Pouch.

Boom!

A second later, a big military transport helicopter suddenly appeared before them.

Opening the door, Gao Gong grabbed the breathless Bai Hanyun and pushed her inside. Before she could fully react, he jumped in after her.

When she looked up, Wu Jun and Bao Shengjie were already seated in the pilot and co-pilot positions.

Looking at the control panel filled with buttons and switches, Bai Hanyun didn’t dare make a sound. If she disturbed them at this moment, they would all be finished.

One minute later, Bao Shengjie said with a hint of urgency in his voice, "The helicopter is ready for takeoff."

"Roger that," Wu Jun replied, then started the engine.

As the engine produced a deep humming sound, the helicopter’s large propeller began to spin.

Seeing this, Bai Hanyun glanced anxiously at her watch. Looking outside, she muttered urgently, "Why haven’t they returned yet?"

Noticing her anxiety, Gao Gong could only pat her back reassuringly without saying anything.

Soon, the noise of the helicopter’s propeller attracted the attention of the patrolling imperial guards.

"Who is there?!" shouted the captain of the imperial guards. "Quick! Come with me!"

The moment Bai Hanyun heard this, her heart sank.

’Not good! We’ve been discovered!’

Hearing the approaching footsteps and voices, Gao Gong took out his gun and prepared for combat.

Just as the imperial guards were about to reach the flower garden, deafening explosions erupted from different parts of the imperial palace.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground shook from the explosion’s impact, spreading panic across the common people living in the imperial capital city and the people inside the imperial palace.

Woken from their sleep, the common people rushed out of their houses in panic.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Amidst the chaos, the city patrols beat their small gongs while warning the common people, "Wake up and quickly run! The Earth Dragon is turning! The Earth Dragon is turning!"

"Ahh! Mother, help!"

"My child! Where is my child?!" a woman searched frantically amidst the chaos, only to find that her child was being held by her husband.

Grabbing his wife, the man shouted, "Run! Quick!"

While the common people were rushing out of their houses to save themselves, the people inside the imperial palace grabbed onto anything to stabilize themselves.

After the ground stopped shaking, the captain of the imperial guards hurriedly ordered, "You guys, go and check for the damage! The rest of you, follow me!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Without wasting any more time, they quickly divided into two teams. While one team went to check the aftermath of the explosion, the rest of the imperial guards followed their captain to the flower garden.

The moment they arrived, they were shocked to see a huge, strange monster in the center of the flower garden.

A moment later, the captain came back to his senses. Seeing the people inside the monster’s stomach, his heart shook so violently that his mind stopped working.

"Look, there are people inside the monster’s stomach!" exclaimed one of his subordinates.

The captain’s mind cleared when he heard this. Drawing his sword, he ordered bravely, "Arrest them! If they fight back, kill them all!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Inside the helicopter, Gao Gong raised his gun and began shooting at the imperial guards.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Thud! Thud! Thud!
