Right now, it was in the middle of the night. The ploy to kill the officer had begun at nightfall, and just a couple of hours had passed since then.
Shang walked over to the side gate since the main gates were closed during the night.
"Space Ring," the guard said with boredom.
Shang put his Space Ring on the table.
After that, the guard took out a crystal and moved it all over Shang's body.
This crystal was a smaller version of the bigger crystals above the gate. The big crystals had the ability to penetrate a Space Ring's defense and scan the insides, but the smaller one didn't.
However, it could see if someone wore a Space Ring or not.
This crystal was basically there to stop people from smuggling any illegal goods into the city.
The crystal didn't show any alarm, and the guard put it away.
Then, the guard looked through the Space Ring.
There was just some random stuff in there. Nothing special.
