Chapter 349: Chapter 350: The Most Terrifying Enemy
After his voice faded, the current Emperor Qin’s figure gradually receded, leaving Sixth Prince alone in the Imperial Hall.
Gazing at the throne of the Imperial Hall, Sixth Prince clenched his fists tightly, simply hoping that his Father Emperor and Emperor Qin, his brother, would return soon.
The real reason why the Qin Dynasty had not yet waged war against the three factions was that the two strongest forces of the Qin Dynasty—the forr Human Emperor and the current Human Emperor—were not within the boundaries of the Dynasty!
The two had discovered a Ruins so ti ago, and both father and son concluded that the gains within would certainly be extraordinary, so they entered it together.
Only the soul consciousness of Sixth Prince’s brother, Emperor Qin, remained in the throne to deal with matters arising within the Dynasty and to hold the fort.
Thinking back to the humiliating treatnt he received at the South eting’s Ruins made Sixth Prince tremble with rage, wishing ardently for the swift destruction of those three Sects.
Whether it was the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Sixth Prince, or any of the Princes and Marquises of the Qin Dynasty, the enemy in their eyes comprised only the powers of Double Pole Palace, Carefree Sect, and Blood Spirit Valley.
At the sa ti, the powers near the coastal areas of the Southern Domain focused their watchful gazes only on the movents between these three forces and the Qin Dynasty.
As for the Huaxia Empire?
In their view, it was an inconsequential force that had co out of nowhere and didn’t warrant any serious consideration.
Didn’t you hear what the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty said? In his eyes, the Huaxia Empire was so insignificant that it didn’t even deserve the right to offer condolences to his children.
However, unbeknownst to them, the Emperor they looked down upon had already silently entered the Qin Dynasty’s lands, and had excavated the subterranean regions of the border cities of the Qin Dynasty.
Dense passageways spread beneath Yushui City, and if one could see the entire map of the tunnels, they would find that it ford a massive Array.
And atop each node of the Array was a jade pedestal, upon which hovered a golden Token, engraved with Array lines—clearly an Array Map crafted by the Heavenly Art Departnt.
At this very mont, Lin Qian was not in Old Man Qi’s house, but at the very center of the underground Array.
In the center of the Array, there was also a jade base set with a tal Array Map, larger and more intricate than the rest, and it emanated a misty gleam.
“All prosper together, all suffer together,” Lin Qian murmured as he looked at the pale tal slab before him, a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.
“All prosper together, all suffer together” was the na of this white tal slab, a material used to forge armor, intended for shields in the hands of shield soldiers.
After using this material, the shields of the soldiers would live up to its na…
All prosper together, all suffer together.
When shield soldiers ford a battle Array, their interconnectedness greatly increased, strengthening the defense of their shield wall.
If one shield soldier were attacked, the strength of that attack was dispersed among the others, distributing the impact evenly.
Of course, the type of soldier that could wield the massive shields made from this material was a breed superior to both the fierce shield and the bulwark shield.
The most distinctive feature of this material’s effect was synchronization, enhancing connectivity.
Although each city’s Array in the Qin Dynasty was not like the Huaxia World Array, which covered the entire territory without a physical barrier, each city was interconnected.
The benefit of this connectivity was that communication between cities was incredibly rapid; any incidents could be quickly relayed via the Dynasty’s communication channels.
But now, this worked in Lin Qian’s favor!
Lin Qian extended his hand, and the imperial soul power in his body surged out without reservation, pouring into the foundation platform in front of him.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
A trembling roar echoed through the underground channels dug beneath Yushui City, where jade pedestals floated with array maps, each radiating soul power glow of imperial bright yellow.
At this instant, a barrier of bright yellow array erged, swiftly enveloping the entire underground array channels and preventing the booming sound of the array from escaping.
Inside Old Man Qi’s hut, lying in bed, Qi Yan suddenly rolled over, looking towards the dark opening in the room.
“Yaner, what’s wrong?” Seeing his grandson get up, Old Man Qi suddenly turned his head, “Don’t worry, our family’s great benefactor will be coming up shortly.
“Gramps, didn’t you hear any sound?”
“Sound, I didn’t hear any sound.”
Seeing his grandfather shaking his head, Qi Yan felt strange, as he was sure he heard a faint buzzing sound.
Not just Qi Yan, but so people throughout Yushui City also felt as if sothing had disturbed them, although without exception, they thought it was their imagination.
The underground array, after being activated by Lin Qian, unleashed great power.
This array intertwined with the defense network of Yushui City, with the array virus silently infiltrating within.
Inside the central space for Yushui City’s array nodes, ten array masters paced back and forth, checking if the city’s arrays were functioning normally. However, they were all yawning continuously and were apathetic.
For many years, the arrays of Yushui City had never encountered any problems.
“Wait a second, sothing’s not right, how co the connection to other cities has strengthened, I even sense the arrays behind the Imperial City!”
The communication between each city’s arrays in the Qin Dynasty also had its limitations. For instance, the strongest array fluctuations in the Imperial City acted as a barrier in this networked communication.
For Yushui City to sense the cities behind the Imperial City was an enormous challenge.
However, the array masters discovered that the connection between Yushui City’s arrays and those of other cities had significantly strengthened, to the point where even cities behind the Imperial City could be clearly sensed.
“Could it be that the longer the array operates, the stronger it becos?”
“Who cares, there’s no problem with the arrays, and they’re even better than before, why not be happy about it!”
The array masters in the central space did not take the anomaly in the arrays to heart, casually discussing it amongst themselves with little concern.
Moreover, from the look of the arrays, there were no issues at all.
The silent infiltration of the array virus went unnoticed by the array masters, of course. However, the only problem was that due to their interlinked nature, the city defenses had their connectivity greatly enhanced.
Yet, Lin Qian had not anticipated that the array masters of Yushui City would be so foolish as to overlook such a stark abnormality, making him worry less about this obvious flaw.
“Now all I need to do is wait, wait for the array virus to completely infiltrate all the city arrays of the Qin Dynasty!”
Wait!
The Qin Dynasty was waiting for the return of their Human Emperor, while Lin Qian was waiting for the full effect of the array virus.
Emperor Qin, after all, would never imagine that the small country he underestimated was, in fact, the most terrifying enemy of the Qin Dynasty!
