Chapter 612: Great Disappointment, A Turn for the Better

"What is the deal with that immortal artifact?"

After the discussion was finished.

Ying Ying Zi Ye had just stepped one foot out of the door of the Imperial Study.

With one foot still inside the Imperial Study.

He was called to a stop again by Brother Zheng's words from behind.

"Uh..."

Ying Ying Zi Ye looked back in astonishment.

If he hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten.

Now that Brother Zheng mentioned it, he remembered.

This was his fault; there had been too many things previously, and he had forgotten about this.

The appearance of the telescope was enough to change warfare.

The role of the telescope could not be overstated.

Without the telescope, they wouldn't have captured the Xiongnu so easily.

"Father Emperor, shall we go out for a walk?"

"Let's find a high vantage point and let you experience the power of the immortal artifact you speak of?"

Looking through the telescope here would have no effect.

Only by finding a high ground could the power of the telescope be unleashed.

Ying Zheng and General Zhang Han looked at each other.

Was there really an immortal artifact?

They had never seen it and thought it was fabricated.

After all, this thing was too fantastical.

Being able to see clearly the situation dozens of miles away.

This was something they didn't even dare to imagine.

Originally, Ying Zheng hadn't held much hope.

He had just asked casually.

Who knew the answer would be that it really existed.

Both of them became somewhat excited.

An immortal artifact!

That was something from legends.

In their lifetime, they could actually see a legendary immortal artifact.

"Let's go, let's take a look."

Ying Zheng stood up, waved his hand, and led the way out of the Imperial Study with a dragon-like stride.

He wanted to see what was so special about this legendary immortal artifact.

The three arrived at the highest point of the Zhangtai Palace—the Seven-Fold Exquisite Array Tower.

This was a pavilion, seven stories high.

It was the highest position in the Zhangtai Palace.

As long as one was not nearsighted, as long as one's eyes were sharp enough.

Standing on the top floor, one could see directly outside the Xianyang city wall.

One must know that the two were far apart.

From this pavilion in the Xianyanggong to outside the Xianyang city, it was dozens of miles away.

And this pavilion was not even in the center of the Xianyanggong.

It showed just how massive the scale of the Xianyanggong and Xianyang city was.

The three walked up to the highest floor.

At once, one could overlook the entire Xianyanggong.

Of course, some buildings blocked the view.

And those that weren't blocked couldn't see the situation in the distance clearly.

After all, the Xianyanggong was too massive.

Ying Ying Zi Ye didn't waste words.

He took a monocular telescope directly from his sleeve.

And began to explain it to the two.

Focusing, adjusting the distance, placing it before the eyes, and so on, he explained everything.

This thing was simple, convenient, and easy to use; one could get the hang of it as soon as it was explained.

Ying Zheng and his companion were full of curiosity.

Looking at that legendary immortal artifact, they were somewhat dazed.

They had originally thought Ying Ying Zi Ye would take out something shining.

And this was it?

What about the promised immortal artifact?

Shouldn't an immortal artifact be shining with light and containing precious energy?

Why was it just this black thing?

This so-called immortal artifact telescope, in their imagination, was something used by immortals and gods.

It should be a special existence.

Even if it didn't shine all over, it should at least emit some pressure.

But this thing looked like a bamboo tube and was all black.

This caused the image of the immortal artifact in the hearts of Ying Zheng and his companion to collapse completely.

"Prince, is this the immortal artifact you spoke of?"

General Zhang Han couldn't help but speak.

He really couldn't understand how this thing could be called an immortal artifact.

"No, no, no, the name 'immortal artifact' was called out by you all."

"I have never called it an immortal artifact."

Ying Ying Zi Ye was speechless; he had never said this was an immortal artifact.

It was a name given by those generals.

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng and his companion couldn't help but feel greatly disappointed.

Expressions of "as expected" appeared on their faces.

It really was fabricated.

What kind of immortal artifact was this?

"Prince, then if this thing is not called an immortal artifact, what is it called?"

General Zhang Han was disappointed, but he couldn't help but ask.

"This thing is called a telescope, and it has another name, also called a thousand-mile mirror."

"Although it is not an immortal artifact, the rumors are all true."

"This telescope can indeed see the situation dozens of miles away clearly." ===== CHAPTER 614 =====
