The shadows of the old world, the tides of the new era. Light and darkness, chaos and dawn... arise alternately in a world of machinery and witchcraft!
But what does this have to do with me, ...
It was only then that Parker and local officials noticed Mirko's special pupils.
Even if you wear human clothes, some of your distinctive features cannot be hidden!
At first, the two thought she was just a witch and secretary serving a prince with a good figure, but now it seems that her identity is not simple.
Heterogeneous eyes represent a different mixture of blood. Those who can be officially recognized and employed in Adak are the demons. The woman in front of him is actually a witch.
She's a high-level witch!
After listening to the general's whispered report, Pike looked at Mierke with a look of surprise.
"You mean these people are pagans?"
"To be precise, they are cultists..."
Mi'er ignored the two people's questions and looked directly at Sean and said.
Because she was in front of others, Mier would not directly say the words of the ancient god believers, but Sean could understand the meaning.
"Are you sure?"
"Very sure."
It’s them again!
Sean looked at Melsusa, Pike and others.
As expected, the people from the Ancient God Church have started to take action again, but we still don’t know what church they are or what their purpose is in taking those two things.
"However, some of these corpses have prominent calf muscles. They must have been people who walked frequently. I think they might be mercenaries."
"Hercenaries have also joined in the robbery?"
"It's just a possibility." Mi'er was still not sure, because there was no guarantee that these people were mercenaries. Even people in the Ancient God Sect would join the mercenary group to work in order to make a living.
There should be many cases like this.
Just like the Golden Group... once they take off their masks, they become just ordinary citizens.
"Even if it's possible, it's worse."
Sean turned and looked at the sheriff of Abu Za City, the highest-ranking official in the area.
"As Prince Jagun, I now order you to send trusted individuals to all nearby mercenary guilds to gather information and see if there has been any unusual activity recently. Report any developments you encounter... From today on, you may report directly to me by letter."
For now, Sean’s main task is not to find the enemy. The Sun King hopes to bring the tribute team back to the capital as quickly as possible.
As for tracking down the bandits, it will be done by other imperial troops.
But Mi'er had already revealed the other party's identity, so Sean had to make preparations in advance... He had already noticed the matter of Kthugya before, but it was just a step too late.
So this time we have to be quick!
"Mel Souza."
"I'm here, Your Highness." The voice behind him answered.
"Gather your soldiers and conduct a continuous search day and night within a radius of several hundred miles. Bring back any relevant news."
"Yes," Melsusa replied.
But he asked again angrily.
"Your Highness, why don't we return to the capital right now?"
"Notify the capital immediately to send a second team. We must find the enemy before they flee. Otherwise, it will be difficult to find them if they are lost in the big cities and deserts... I will stay here for two days, just in time for the second team to arrive."
Once you leave the capital, you become the greatest ruler.
Even if someone has objections, Sean won't listen...
One Cthugha just left, and another one is coming?
Fortunately, Cthugha has no interest in the life and death of humans. If other ancient gods appeared, it would be hard to say. Even any battle might lead to the destruction of the country.
That might be the best case scenario!
Sean pondered...
It is estimated that the events of Cthugha have caused those who believe in the teachings of other ancient gods to begin to stir.
At this time, we must nip them in the bud...
"Okay, I'll arrange it now."
Everyone received the order and started to act on their own, while Sean was responsible for entertaining the diplomats from Keselk.
Since this incident has already happened, they shouldn't mind if it's delayed for a few days.
There is no way...
Watching everyone leave, Sean Kai gave Mi Er Ke some special instructions.
"Call Mesula back and have her start her search in the Imperial Capital... It would be best to contact Vanir and the others first and have them take action as well."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Mi'er was the only person who officially participated in the battle with Sean in the Cthugya incident. She understood what His Royal Highness the Prince was worried about at the moment.
I don’t know what will happen if a similar incident happens again.
Although I can let His Highness fight again with a similar fighting style... there is no guarantee that the arm with special powers can defeat the opponent!
……………………
Meanwhile, somewhere in the great desert in the center of the empire.
"What are you saying? We haven't found the Elixir of Life or the Philosopher's Stone at all! We've spent almost all our financial and human resources on such a huge undertaking, and now you're telling me we haven't found anything?"
A strong man was carrying another thin man in front of him.
The knife was placed next to his neck.
"No... no, Bishop! They brought them out, they've already brought them out... Our intelligence in the capital said that someone went to the palace today to report that the two items were indeed stolen."
"Who on earth is that? Who is that?!"
He pulled the other person and swung him hard, but before he could even make a move, the person was almost out of breath.
"I...I don't know."
"Are you a traitor to our CPC?"
This is the simplest explanation. Since the item was not found at all, but the person who reported it said that it was indeed stolen, it means that someone hid it.
"Find it! Find it no matter what the cost, or don't come to see me."
The man standing in the middle said angrily.
But immediately after that, someone else stood up and spoke.
"Bishop Zulga, we can't make this too public... Jagun's army is looking for us now, and we'll be easily discovered if we hire so many mercenaries."
"You mean we should give up this opportunity? Why spend so much money to let the mercenaries take action? Isn't it just to let them delay the imperial army?" Zulga approached the other party, his tall physique giving people an innate sense of oppression.
"I...that's not what I meant."
"What do you mean?"
After thinking for a long time, he didn't even dare to say a word under the other party's aggressive gaze.
"Oh, I remember now... Although we put out all the bonfires that night, the moonlight was still there. I thought I saw something flying high above. Maybe that was the key."
The man talked about what he could remember.
But to most people it sounds like nonsense!!
