Being an otaku in the world of American comics

After a period of frantic, tireless work, Liang Yue finally stopped digging at three o'clock in the morning.

He rolled up his sleeve and checked the pre-set electronic watch. Then, the fellow returned to the entrance of the tunnel and tapped a few times on the electronic screen next to the lever.

Setting the countdown to one hour, Liang Yue casually pressed the lever, and the time began to tick down second by second.

Turning back to take another look at the deep space behind him, a wicked smile suddenly appeared on his face. Then, he followed the path he had come from, walking back unhurriedly.

As he walked, he kept summoning the small cube of earth in his hand, constantly filling in the tunnel behind him.

After about forty more minutes, Liang Yue returned to his residence. He carefully observed the entrance, and after confirming that no one had been there, he came out with a relaxed expression.

He buried the passage in the room, subconsciously smelled the earthy smell on his body, then took off his gear and threw it directly into the stronghold world, and took out a new Taoist robe and placed it on the bed.

He himself plunged into the bathtub, comfortably soaking in the endless water source of the stronghold world~

"Boom~!" "Boom boom!" "Boom~!!!!!"……

About ten minutes later, a series of dull and violent explosions suddenly rang out outside the West City!

Liang Yue, who lived nearby, felt the power of the explosion almost immediately.

Under the ravages of waves of explosives, the ground began to shake violently. On the roof made of beams and tiles above his head, dust kept falling, mixed with various small stones.

Instantly, Liang Yue, who had just washed himself clean, was covered in dust, but at this moment he was not in a hurry to clean up, but quickly put on his clothes and pushed the door out.

At this time, a noisy sound was echoing in the surrounding air.

The explosions outside the city were short and intense, and ended after about ten seconds, but the chaos and turmoil caused by the explosions in this Beiping City had only just begun.

However, fortunately, this turmoil came quickly and went quickly.

Although the explosion outside the city came relatively suddenly, it was far from a real earthquake.

Even the houses in the west of the city, which were closest to the epicenter, remained intact from beginning to end, and caused almost no damage except for a sprinkling of dust.

The originally chaotic crowd quickly calmed down and returned to their homes under the appeasement and expulsion of the yamen runners in the vicinity.

It's just that at this time, the ignorant people in the city, although temporarily calmed the chaos under the coercion of the government, the official personnel, as subordinates of the Qing court, were not so easy to fool.

In Beiping City, a large number of yamen runners, garrison soldiers, officials, princes and ministers, and even the privileged Tartar dignitaries, all felt a sense of unease at this time.

They either climbed the city walls or rode out of the city to check the source of the chaos in various ways and through various channels.

For a time, the entire capital city was inevitably a little panic-stricken and uneasy.

And as time passed and the sky slowly brightened, more and more unfavorable news began to come from outside the city, and an unusual emotion was brewing in people's hearts.

It wasn't until the people in the city began to go out to buy food and set up stalls that they suddenly discovered that the city gates leading to the outside world were still tightly closed, and there were a large number of soldiers guarding the area around the city gates.

In the past, those Tartar masters who would wander the streets early in the morning, walking birds and fighting monkeys all day long, had also disappeared at this time.

It was at this time that the people realized the seriousness of the situation.

Although the government was trying its best to cover up the truth of the matter, this kind of thing that happened just outside the city was of no avail no matter how it was covered up. Instead, because of the deliberate suppression, it began to intensify.

Under the deliberate spread of people with ulterior motives, in just half a day, most of the entire capital city, from princes and ministers to vendors and pawns, already knew the truth.

The forty to fifty thousand Banner troops stationed outside the city were completely wiped out overnight!?

This is a major event that has shocked the world, whether for the people of the capital, the Qing court, or the entire China!

You must know, how many clan soldiers have the Tartar army lost in total since they entered the pass and seized Beiping City until the current little emperor ascended the throne?

In the entire process of the Southern and Northern Wars, most of those who went to their deaths were probably the newly recruited troops after entering the pass.

Now, those Banner troops who stayed in the capital to deter both inside and outside the capital city are gone in one night?

Now, most of the soldiers stationed around the capital city have become the Han army green camps that the Tartars usually look down upon?

How can this situation allow those Tartar masters to eat and sleep in peace!?

Sure enough, around noon, before someone could finish a hasty meal in the restaurant, the entire Beiping City was under martial law. The people were driven back to their homes, and business was suspended.

Immediately afterwards, teams of soldiers and yamen runners began to patrol the streets back and forth to prevent any riots and accidents from occurring.

Liang Yue saw all of this in his eyes, and a sneer arose in his heart.

For ordinary people, the soldiers outside are more fierce than tigers and wolves, but for himself, those bald soldiers do not have much deterrence at all.

However, in order not to startle the snake, Liang Yue did not act rashly at this time, but stayed at home honestly, calmed down, and continued to practice the body training boxing techniques in the "Golden Bell Cover" in the yard.

Soon, night came.

Most of the surrounding houses had already turned off their lights, and there were still sporadic soldiers patrolling the streets, but the frequency had become very sparse.

Liang Yue took out the small hoe again at this time, and knocked on a floor tile in the corner of the wall for a while. After a while, he quietly遁地 and disappeared into the house.

Tonight, the sky seemed particularly gloomy, and a thick cloud shrouded the entire sky.

After a short while, the howling north wind blew from the sky, and snowflakes began to fall sparsely in the sky above the capital city.

Slowly, the snow began to gradually increase, and it was fluttering all over the sky.

"Bang~!" "Pa~ pa pa!" "biubiubiu!"……

Just as the snow was flying, a series of abrupt sounds suddenly rang out in the city.

Just like the sound of firecrackers on New Year's Eve, sparse, but non-stop, breaking the night that had been gradually silent.

Every once in a while, the movement would sound in different directions of growth, interspersed with light and fire explosions, as well as the shouts and screams of the crowd.

For a time, the entire capital city began to become panic-stricken.
