As people who had been shot, few people paid attention to Zhang Xuezhou and Ren Yisheng anymore.

Aside from the possibility of being shot if they stood up, the two of them didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

"Zuo Quan is inside too!"

The two were even able to peek at information about the Louvre Palace.

Tourists at the Louvre Palace turned into rioters, and then more outside rioters forcibly broke in, numbering around forty.

The number of people involved in suppressing the rebellion in Western Capital City was over a hundred, including not only members of various Lineage ranks but also elite members.

Zuo Quan was among those suppressing the rebels, and entered the palace in the third batch along with some Third Sequence individuals.

In this context, the Third Sequence is the most basic entry threshold, and it also involves the formation of abilities such as Third Sequence genetic weapons and marksmanship.

Zhu Shengnan, Zhen Mei, and Jiang Feng, whom Zhang Xuezhou knew well, were all present, but no one of their age group was there, not even Zuo Teng.

It must be said that the advantage brought by age cannot be bridged by hard work in a short period of time. Even with the help of the ferocious beast belt, Zuo Teng and others have only reached the Third Sequence and have not yet perfected their sequence strength, so it is difficult for them to have the relevant qualifications to participate.

It's not surprising that the youngest generation of outstanding individuals struggles to break into this field, but it's somewhat jarring to see the older generation still occupying it.

Zuo Quan and Zuo Jin were mixed in with the last wave of the younger generation, and they were too conspicuous to be noticed by Zhang Xuezhou and others.

Only Zhang Xuezhou and Ren Yisheng lay dead beneath the pillars, which seemed somewhat conspicuous. However, when the entire palace area was considered, dozens, even hundreds, of people had already perished.

As 'two corpses,' Zhang Xuezhou and Ren Yisheng were clearly overlooked when faced with the far more significant event of the rioters' subversive actions.

Zhang Xuezhou could sense that these people hadn't even glanced at him when they stormed into the palace.

"You think there's something wrong with Zuo Quan?"

Once this group of people had entered various areas of the palace, Ren Yisheng asked Zhang Xuezhou out of curiosity.

"It's not that I think Zuo Quan has a problem, it's that Zuo Teng thinks Zuo Quan has a problem," Zhang Xuezhou corrected. "Zuo Quan recently went to the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum, and after returning, he developed a tumor. His personality has also become rather strange; he even beat up Zuo Teng Zuo Teng and tried to kick him out of the house!"

"Patients with tumors usually have bad tempers," Ren Yisheng said. "If I had a tumor, my temper wouldn't be good either!"

"I've been sick for so many years, and I still don't act like this!"

Zhang Xuezhou replied sullenly.

"I heard that you were quite withdrawn for a few years before you turned eighteen," Ren Yisheng said.

"I wasn't in a good mood at the time, but I was also diagnosed with a mental illness by the hospital. I didn't dare to lose my temper, lest it be interpreted as a worsening of my condition requiring forced hospitalization. I am somewhat withdrawn!"

When Zhang Xuezhou recalled his dark years, he felt that the past was too painful to revisit.

The only good thing about him during those years was that he succeeded in escaping Zhang Household Village and began to experience different things. After arriving in Western Capital City, he met Ren Yisheng, which gave him a glimmer of hope.

Having weathered many storms, he can now face many things with equanimity.

Even now, facing the actions of the Subversion Sequence Committee, he can still lie here peacefully.

After discussing the illness for a while, Zhang Xuezhou finally felt that Zuo Quan's strange behavior was acceptable, and whether the other party had interfered in this subversive operation depended on his actions.

"I'll go keep an eye on Zuo Quan!"

External problems can be solved by cracking down on them, but internal problems are difficult to prevent.

Thinking of Zuo Quan, this unstable element, Zhang Xuezhou felt it was worthwhile to go and investigate him.

"Are you getting up already?" Ren Yisheng asked in a low voice.

"I can keep an eye on him even while lying down!"

Zhang Xuezhou responded, and with a slight tap of his hand, Yang Po immediately floated out.

This was a state that Ren Yisheng had experienced back then, but Ren Yisheng's body and soul were not yet stable, so he dared not do this for the time being.

"Be careful, don't go too far, or you might not be able to get back!"

Before Ren Yisheng could finish his whispered instructions, Zhang Xuezhou's spirit had already drifted and soared upwards.

From a distance of 100 meters, Zhang Xuezhou could see Zuo Quan lying prone on one side of the blue brick wall, holding a sniper rifle.

Zuo Quan's ambush and sniping behavior is not unusual. For those in the Third Sequence, seeking opportunities to snipe rather than relying on their sequence abilities to charge forward is a relatively important rule.

At this stage of the sequence, many Sequence Holder are still unable to detach themselves from firearms, even after reaching the Fourth Sequence.

If someone has extremely high marksmanship, it's perfectly normal for them to use a gun in the Fifth Sequence.

A few scattered gunshots rang out in the palace, indicating that the rioters had made contact with the first wave of the Sequence Committee's assault team.

Zhang Xuezhou glanced in the direction from which the gunshots rang out.

That was indeed the direction of the old mansion, only about four hundred meters away from here.

The distance isn't long, but without an inside contact, forcing your way into the old mansion area wouldn't be an easy task.

In that area, numerous barriers have already been deployed.

These barriers are not clearly identifiable large iron or alloy gates, but rather doors in the same color as the walls of the Louvre Palace.

Once these doors are closed, the overall color remains almost uniform.

Even if some doors are made of wood, it is difficult to tell whether they are walls or wooden doors without knocking on them one by one.

This preserves the overall architectural style of the Louvre Palace to the greatest extent possible, which is also the understated traditional style of the Scarlet Alliance State architecture.

Without directions, even if the buildings are right in front of you, it would be hard to believe that this is an important place.

"Which faction are you from? Kneel down and surrender immediately, and we might let you off the hook!"

Zhou Yueyan was in the first group. She had just shouted a word when a muffled explosion rang out.

The response to Zhou Yueyan was a hand grenade.

The grenades of the Scarlet Alliance State are not the low-grade ones that the Thousand Islands Alliance lay in rows on the ground. Some military enterprises have developed grenades that are extremely small in size, but whose blast radius is enough to cover more than ten meters, and whose shrapnel can effectively kill objects within a radius of fifty meters.

Amid the explosions, several more Lei Bei thrown.

However, before the grenades could even hit the ground, they were detonated in mid-air by several flying blades.

Wang Yi'an's brief action also meant that his location was exposed. A brief gunshot rang out, and Wang Yi'an couldn't help but groan, clearly having suffered some minor injuries.

"Their bullets pierced through two walls and almost went right through my bulletproof vest!"

Wang Yi'an's low, panting conversation made many members of the Western Capital City's official committee tense up.

If the wall they rely on cannot provide reliable cover, their risks obviously increase dramatically, and they could easily perish if they are not careful.

The rioters did not respond, and the first echelon of the order committee members were met with nothing but a barrage of fire.

This enraged Zhou Yueyan, who almost wanted to deploy rocket artillery to bombard the area.

I'll give it a try!

Zhou Rihui reached out slightly to stop him, then charged out wielding a large steel shield.

In an instant, a continuous barrage of gunfire erupted, and more than ten grenades were thrown.

"This is the gift I prepared for Zhou Xin; you're still missing something!"

It wasn't until Sunday Hui charged forward that a response came amidst the deafening explosions.

This didn't even make Song Bu'er, who was over a hundred meters away, blink. He quickly adjusted his gun and fired back, then rolled around and quickly changed position.

Muffled groans and the sound of gunfire rang out again. Clearly, some of the rioters had also begun to suffer serious injuries, and there was a high probability that some important figures had been involved.
