Sonia had just taken two steps when she heard a tinkling sound behind her, and a pulling force appeared that seemed to tear off all her clothes. A short knife pierced the hem of her skirt and nailed it into the ground.
With a tearing sound, Sonia's red evening dress tore open a large tear. Her figure became unstable and she fell to the ground. The fall was so painful that it hurt to look at it.
"If you dare to take another step back, I will chop off your heads."
A male voice came from behind Sonia. She was still a little dazed from the fall, but the faint smell of blood around her made her body tremble uncontrollably.
"Goddess of the Moon, please protect me. Faith will surely defeat evil!"
After murmuring these words in a low voice, a strange wave spread across Sonia's body. The pain in her body disappeared, and most of the fear in her heart dissipated. She looked directly at Su Xiao, ready to resist the evil.
After thinking for about 1.5 seconds, Sonia was ready to obey God's will and wait and see what happened. The evil was too powerful and she seemed unable to defeat it.
At this time, the two Sikyong officers who were fleeing immediately stopped as if they had been restrained.
"Your Excellency Cuculin, please calm down, we are here to find you this time."
The taller Sikyong spoke and wiped the cold sweat from his face.
"Find me?"
Su Xiao stepped on the handle of the [Soul Walker] short knife. As he stepped diagonally, the Soul Walker flew up with a jingle and was held in his hand.
"Yes, this is the decision made by the Holy King after discussion with Lady Moon Goddess. You are about to regain your freedom. This is the approval document."
The Sikyong took out the approval document from his arms. This guy was very cunning and pressed the approval document directly into Frank's arms.
The owner of the clothing store, Frank, was stunned for a moment, then walked slowly to Su Xiao, handed in the approval document, raised his hands, stood upright against the wall, and had a strong desire to survive.
Su Xiao briefly glanced at the approval document. Although he didn't know why he could regain his freedom, the approval document was indeed genuine.
The reason why Su Xiao was preparing to leave the secret prison through force was mainly because he felt that it was impossible to leave the secret prison due to the crime he had committed in his capacity.
The Old Holy King is basically equivalent to the king of the Dawn Empire, but he cannot be dictatorial because there is also the Moon Goddess.
If the old Holy King is the supreme ruler among the officials, then the Moon Goddess is the representative of the Moon God in the empire, and is the highest representative of faith.
In this world, faith is not spiritual support, but it can cultivate a large number of moon apostles, that is, extraordinary people. Compared with recruiting those born extraordinary people from the people, cultivating loyal soldiers in batches to become extraordinary people is obviously a better choice.
With this kind of extraordinary power, a fight between empires would be like a fight between gods. The soldiers at the front only have basic combat power.
It is precisely for this reason that the status of the Moon Goddess is not much lower than that of the Old Saint King. They are the two giants of the empire.
As for the third giant, Yinghou, he is the highest representative of the military. 80% of the military power of the entire empire belongs to him. Years of war have made Yinghou's status rise.
The Old Saint King has the highest status, followed by the Moon Goddess, and then the Yinghou. Although there is a gap in status, it is not easy for these three to get rid of each other. Each of them is entangled in the empire, and one cannot defeat them all.
Well, it will lead to civil war.
The Ninth Force is the direct force of the Old Saint King. It was Yinghou who proposed to disband the Ninth Army, but it was the Old Saint King and the Moon Goddess who actually took action.
It has to be said that Su Xiao's identity actually owes a lot of love to the old Saint King. The ninth unit has reached that point and must be disbanded, and Su Xiao's identity will also inevitably die.
The Old Saint King rejected the proposal of Moon Goddess and Ying Hou and tried to protect Su Xiao, otherwise it would not be as simple as being put in a secret prison.
"Take it."
Su Xiao handed the approval document to Sonia, who subconsciously took it.
"The process still has to go through."
Su Xiao walked towards the other side of the passage and quickly returned to the cell.
Sonia and the two Sijuns looked at each other with confusion on their faces. Finally, the three of them came to the door of the cell and stepped on the steam door that had been cut into six pieces.
"Your Excellency Kukulin, after the discussion between the Holy King and Lady Moon Goddess, you have made great achievements on the frontline battlefield. Although you have acted improperly before and caused many 'misunderstandings', in view of your outstanding military achievements, after the Arbitration Court,
It is unanimously agreed that you will regain your freedom on March 11, 1537, the dawn calendar year, which is today."
After reading the approval document, the Sijun breathed a sigh of relief. He was finally safe. He had just escaped because he was afraid of being accidentally killed. People in the Ninth Troop had a habit of killing suspicious targets directly.
Su Xiao took the approval document from the Si Jin Guan. There was obviously some conspiracy at the moment, but he had regained his freedom. The next thing to do was to find the Soul Whisperer.
"This way, Commander Cuculin."
Sikyong Guan's words made Su Xiao think of a lot of information.
First of all, he was released, probably because the empire's power system was in chaos, and the title "Commander Cuculin" was patiently explored.
The Ninth Force has been disbanded, and its members have either been sent to the mountains or forests or imprisoned, and the position of commander of the Ninth Force is an empty shell.
The old Saint King and Moon Goddess chose to keep this kind of empty shell, most likely because they wanted Su Xiao to help them with something, or to disrupt the situation as a servant, so that certain people's actions would be hindered.
Having never met before, Su Xiao knew that the old Saint King and the Moon Goddess were probably two old Yinbies, and judging from the current prosperity of the Dawn Empire, there was a high probability that these two were super old Yinbies and Old Lions.
The old guy on the same level as Harold.
While thinking, Su Xiao followed Sonia and the two Sijuns to the outside of the secret prison. This group of people was also very interesting. Sonia was from the Moon Goddess faction, and the Siggins were from the Old Holy King faction. They said that the two parties were not hostile.
, Su Xiao would never believe it.
Next, Su Xiao will look for the Soul Whisperer under the noses of two old men. As for Yinghou, if it is another old man...
The awakening mission gave too few clues. Apart from the words "Soul Whisperer", there were no other useful hints.
Moreover, there is another violator in this world. Fortunately, Su Xiao does not have to fight with the violator. Even if the hunting mission is not completed this time, he does not need to act as a temporary judge. This is a preferential treatment when awakening his talent.
Just as Su Xiao was about to take the elevator, he suddenly remembered something. There was also a member of the Ninth Unit in the secret prison, a 'madwoman' named Philomena, who was a steam bomb expert and was his adjutant.
The second-in-command of the Ninth Unit.
"Let Philomena out."
Su Xiao stopped in front of the elevator. The tall Sikyong and Sonia in the elevator both looked embarrassed. Among them, Sonia was the first to speak:
"That's right, Mr. Cuculin, we only received approval for your release. Regarding t17.2229 Philomena, we can't do anything, sorry."
Sonia put one hand on her chest to express her apology. Now she did not dare to bend down to continue the goddess ceremony. There was a long rip in the back of her skirt.
"Am I still the commander of the ninth unit?"
Su Xiao looked at Sonia, he was 60% sure to get the adjutant Philomena out.
