Su Xiao contacted Bu Bu Wang while talking and learned that Bu Bu Wang could arrive in the imperial capital tonight at the earliest.
"Red Scorpion, Randa, and Kelsey are all dead?"
The little adjutant's pace slowed down.
"died."
"Kelsey...Kelsey still owes me one meal, Randa owes me 2,000 gold medals, and Red Scorpion owes me 12,657 meals."
The little adjutant murmured to himself as if he had lost his mind. God knows why Red Scorpion owed her 12,657 meals.
Right now, Su Xiao has lost the department he wanted most, which is the Crow Eye of the Ninth Unit, an intelligence department that can even find out the color of the enemy's underwear.
Crow Eye is different from other subordinate departments of the Ninth Force. They were not disbanded, but were separated by the Old Saint King. The Old Saint King and the Moon Goddess were reluctant to disband this department, and the people in this department rarely participated in frontal wars.
, the members basically have no problems.
Today at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the Old Saint King summoned Su Xiao, and at 7 o'clock in the evening, the Moon Goddess summoned Su Xiao. No matter which side Su Xiao chooses to join, he will offend the other side.
Su Xiao now wants to investigate the clues about the Soul Whisperer, which is like looking for a needle in a haystack, so he urgently needs information from Crow Eye, which is originally his department. When he gives orders, those members of Crow Eye will not reject it.
But before that, he had to meet the old Holy King first.
With nothing to do, Su Xiao took the adjutant around the city a few times. During this period, the adjutant got a military uniform of the Ninth Army from somewhere and put it on. As for the long skirts and waist skirts that are popular in the capital of the empire,
She has absolutely no interest in wearing makeup, and it is basically impossible for her to put on makeup unless required by the task.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Su Xiao arrived at the Lurenfei Palace in the central area of the capital. This was the center of power of the empire and one of its landmark buildings. As for another landmark building, it was the Luna Monastery.
Lurenfei Palace covers a large area. Unlike the royal palace, the periphery here can be visited by the public. The Heroes Cemetery is developed once a week for 2 hours at a time, with a limit of 100 people. This is to let the public know which ones are
People sacrificed their lives in exchange for the stable life they have today.
After Su Xiao arrived at the inner area of Lulenfei Palace, he walked around and entered the Imperial Council Hall. The Imperial Council Hall has five floors. The first three floors are the office areas of important civil officials, and the upper two floors are the council areas.
The young adjutant was stopped as soon as she arrived at the entrance of the Imperial Council Hall. She was a steam bomb expert, and it only took a matter of minutes to blow up the Imperial Council Hall.
Twenty soldiers wearing mail and holding metal halberds stood around the young adjutant. The young adjutant in the crowd looked harmless.
Compared to the little adjutant who was looking around, the burly soldiers were more nervous. Sometimes, it was really hard to tell who was more threatening by their appearance.
Su Xiao went straight to the fourth floor of the Imperial Council Hall and pushed open the door of a conference room. There were two rows of conference tables close together. On the slightly higher seat at the head, sat a man with long gray hair and a haggard face.
The old man, at first glance, looks like an ordinary old man with a blanket covering him.
"Cukulin."
The old Holy King's voice was not high-pitched, and his energy was low, but his bright eyes showed that his physical condition was much better than it looked.
"sit."
The old sage king slowly raised his hand, picked up the black tea on the table and took a sip.
"Holy King, I am on your side."
Su Xiao sat on the seat on the right side of the old Holy King, and his tone was far from respectful. If he was still respectful at this time, it was not certain whether he could walk out alive. There were 30,000 elite soldiers and 2,700 extraordinary soldiers stationed in Lu Lun Fei Palace.
Or, Su Xiao can be sure that once the war starts, the chance of him rushing out is very slim, there are too many extraordinary people.
"I still have grievances. Drink tea. Yusi brought it from your hometown. Although you have no family, the taste of your hometown is always worth remembering. You are right, Cuculin."
The old holy king's smile was very kind, it was... kind like eating people without spitting out their bones.
"indeed."
Su Xiao picked up the tea cup and took a sip. It tasted good.
"Don't go looking for the Soul Whisperer. It's very dangerous. I'll leave the Crow Eyes to you for the time being. They are your original troops. You can use them, I don't worry."
As soon as the old Holy King opened his mouth, he said everything, including the Soul Whisperer. One can imagine the extent of this old guy's intelligence, and he guessed that Su Xiao wanted to gain control of Crow Eyes.
"I'm curious about what the Soul Whisperer is, a person? A creature?"
Su Xiao was not surprised. He previously revealed that when he was looking for the Soul Whisperer, he had already thought carefully about it. If the initial mission of world level 42 was enough to take his life, then there would be no need to consider the subsequent awakening mission.
"That's a person."
The old sage king put down his teacup, sat back on the chair, and relaxed his whole body.
"How long has it been since I heard this title? Don't look for it, don't listen to it, don't blaspheme the gods."
The old sage king exhaled turbid breath, as if he was savoring the aftertaste of black tea, and he looked drowsy.
"There are always things that have to be discarded. The Ninth Force is like the eagle of the Empire. They have done a good job, but the Empire does not need this falcon now. An animal like an eagle will try its best when you starve it.
The only way is to peck out a piece of meat from your body, but if you feed it, it will fly away and never come back. Besides, the ninth unit is already a magic eagle, and it has started to 'eat human flesh'."
The old Holy King still looked kind and smiling, but what he said contained a huge amount of information.
"A group of magic eagles will compete with each other for food. If only two of them die, the food will be enough. The winner will survive."
Su Xiao put down the teacup and looked out the window.
"Two, two is good, Cuculin, go to the Moon Goddess in the evening, take this thing, and the crow's eyes will be handed over to you."
Having said this, the old holy king threw the tea cup in his hand to the ground. The amiable expression gradually disappeared and became calm and intimidating. Where was the image of the amiable old man? Now even a powerful extraordinary person was standing in front of him.
They don't dare to take action easily, this is the momentum.
"Here comes someone."
As soon as the old holy king finished speaking, several guards in full armor rushed into the conference room.
"Drive it out."
"As commanded."
Several extraordinary guards made a gesture of invitation. They knew what was going on like a mirror in their hearts. The purpose of "driving them out" was for outsiders to see. Now they first wanted to ask Commander Cuculin to move. Of course, they had to be polite.
Which of these people around the old Saint King is not a human being? The fools would have died long ago.
Su Xiao stood up and walked out of the meeting hall. As soon as he went out, one of the extraordinary guards whispered:
"Lord Cuculin, I'm sorry, it's my duty."
Su Xiao said nothing and continued walking down the stairs. As soon as he reached the third floor, the extraordinary guards had angry faces. The extraordinary guard who had spoken before even shouted loudly and shouted at the passing civilian officials.
They were trembling with fright.
Lidya Su's face started to look 'ugly' and she walked quickly down the stairs.
"Hey~ Such a big shot has lost his power. Power is really unpredictable."
"Be careful, a big shot like that can crush you to death even if you lose power."
The three civilian officials whispered for a few words and then walked away slowly. The extraordinary guards glanced at each other, turned and walked upstairs. As the saying goes, those who are in power are surrounded by movie-stars.
