Chapter 290 The times have changed, you fool!

"Protect the King!" "Kill these traitors!"

Within the Hadratar, Simmons, the captain of the palace guards, yelled at the top of his voice, ordering his men to rely on their shields to fend off the violent musket onslaught.

Tonight, most of the city's army had been deployed on missions, but the Bazzer family had also considered the possibility of failure and even of drawing the tiger away from the mountain; thus, the palace naturally couldn't be left entirely unprotected.

In addition to a contingent of the palace guards, there were several bishops and a dozen priests providing joint defense, so even with Ryder leading a larger force and using flintlock guns, for a time they were unable to break through.

It wasn't until a massive lightning pillar, bright enough to illuminate the capital, descended from the sky, that the balance of the situation was broken.

Ryder and his men were also startled, but thanks to prior instructions, they could vaguely guess what was happening.
