Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game
Chapter 518 - 276 Kyoto Imperial Palace, Grand General!_2
The more monsters you successfully rescue, the more power of incense you obtain.
[...]
[You refused the escort of the guarding samurai, leaving Thousand Hui City alone...]
[Looking towards the northern horizon, you know that the capital of Sakura falls is in that direction.]
[As the ’city lord daimyo,’ you cannot enter the capital without permission. If you want to meet the Shogun, you must request the Kyoto Imperial Palace, and only after the Shogun’s agreement, you are allowed to leave your territory and travel to the capital.]
[Violating this ban will result either in losing the position of daimyo, or regarded as rebellion...]
[You take possession of the body of the ’Greed of Star Lord Canis!’]
[At your thought, you form a sword finger gesture, the True Element inside your body surges fiercely, ’Tachi·demon cleaver of Unohana’ floats in the air.]
[You stood with your hands behind, stepping on the sword, turning it into a streak of light flying towards the capital...]
[...]
The speed of sword flight is extremely fast, much faster than when Valkyrie was wearing the ’Armor of Valkyries.’ 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Transforming into Star Lord Canis for a sword-smithing journey across the sky, apart from consuming more True Element, there seem to be no other drawbacks.
This action means that he no longer needs to buy a flying mount, Valkyrie no longer needs to fly with him flapping her wings hard.
Of course, most importantly... it’s damn cool!
But the ’Demon Cleaver of Unohana’ under his feet is a curved Tachi, and the ’Dragon Sword Masamune’ also belongs to the ninja sword, both are single-edged blades, which do not meet the imposing manner of a sword immortal.
The outfit he wears is from a shrine personnel, not as classy as a set of snow-white clothing.
When he gathered more spirit, he would return to the library to find a real flying sword, coupled with a set of white robe to become a complete sword immortal...
The flight through swordsmanship shortened a day’s journey to half an hour. When Lin Xun landed, he received a prompt from the netherworld game. Flying at full speed consumed quite a bit of True Element.
[You take possession of the body of ’Fire Worshiping Ninja Master’!]
[You look up with your hand, the city in the distance is grand and prosperous, the towering city walls are endless at a glance, the bustling crowd at the city gate, the hustle and bustle, a scene of prosperity.]
[You turn around gracefully, opening a pair of gloomy eyes, your figure disappears...]
[You stride towards the city gate, gradually approaching this metropolis ruled by the Shogun.]
[Your escape technique is peerless, crossing the city gate without attracting any attention...]
[You used to be the sharpest ninja sword under the Shogun’s command, you spent your youth in the capital and know everything about the capital.]
[Not only does the capital house the ’Imperial Palace’ where the Shogun lives, but it also has the best hot springs in Sakura fall, ’Flying Bird Bath,’ ’Dawn Shrine’ where the image of the Heavenly Warden is enshrined, ’Ishimaru Sword Furnace’ where divine weapons are forged, ’Ancient Tomb of Fire Worship’ where war heroes are worshipped, etc.]
[Looking at the bustling crowd and the bustling streets, you’re wondering where to go first...]
The Netherworld game gave Lin Xun multiple options all at once, not only was there the ’Dawn Shrine’, where the elder sister was undercover but also the ’Ishimaru Sword Furnace’ which forged weapons!
Lin Xun’s eyes widened, wasn’t he just lacking a blacksmith shell now?
He resisted the urge to select the ’Ishimaru Sword Furnace’ option. The plot to persuade the Shogun has been dragged out for too long. Whether it’s the ’Ancient Heavenly Warden’ or the ’Chaos Origin Dragon’, the situation of both camp’s main gods is not optimistic.
The main task is to go to unite the Shogun. As long as he can align Sakura fall’s ruler with his own front, everything in the capital can be obtained without any effort.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Xun selected the ’Imperial Palace’ option.
[You reveal your figure, following the route in your memory, heading straight to the center of the capital - ’Imperial Palace’!]
[In progress...]
[The present capital is even more prosperous than you remember. The pedestrians on the streets, whether it’s the street vendors, the wealthy in carriages, or the bare-chested wandering samurais, you could feel their satisfaction and happiness under the Shogun’s rule.]
[You know, Sakura Fall will only grow stronger under the rule of the Shogun. If you can unite with the Shogun, who represents the pinnacle of earthly power, you will have full confidence even against the hidden evil god...]
[...]
[In no time, you crossed the streets and arrived at the center of the capital, ’Imperial Palace’!]
[The majestic palace city is surrounded by a moat, many samurais guard the bridge gate. Every time the people pass by here, they bow towards the east garden of the palace, expressing their respect for the Shogun.]
[People don’t bow to the direction of the residence inside the palace because the seven-year-old little emperor no longer represents the ’Ancient Heavenly Warden’. He is just a mascot like a sunny doll. The nominal emperor has no power at all.]
[Sakura fall is so prosperous, even dares not to pay tribute to the Vermillion Empire, all thanks to the Shogun, and the little emperor has nothing to do with it.]
[As long as the Shogun is willing, even if he proclaims himself as emperor tomorrow, he will receive the support of all the people and the army...]
[There were ministers constantly advising the Shogun to ascend to the throne, but somehow the Shogun did not abolish the little emperor...]
[As you come to the bridge gate, a samurai immediately blocks your way, but when you remove the peasant hat on your head, revealing a face full of wrinkles, the samurai immediately bows in salute to you.]
