St. Floride, the place closest to the angels and the most holy place in the empire, was desecrated by this method of death, which was similar to curses and sacrifices.

The panicked people were at a loss. Four high-ranking affairs officers in the empire and their family members and guards were all silenced overnight. Such a thing has never been imagined by novelists.

Entering the first city wall and on the way to the Kingdom Hall, you can see some priests holding grand ceremonies in their hands and mumbling words as they walk.This incident has even touched the Holy Vatican. The taboo hanging of heads on four doorways, they believe it is some kind of demonic ritual, and it is naturally associated with Soleichuan.

The priests passing by saw the white-haired demon and carefully avoided it.

Some have begun to wonder why this demon became a hero of the Empire.

It must be the devil who caused this disaster. He is a person abandoned by the gods. How can he be allowed to stay closest to the gods?

This must be divine punishment, it must be the wrath of the gods.

The gods killed all the officials who originally supported Soleichuan to become a hero of the empire.

Chapter 35 Regaining freedom

In the Congress Hall, everyone seemed to be waiting for Soleichuan.The Congress Hall, which had lost four heavyweight affairs officers, was extremely calm.Most of the people standing among them are some of Ai Fuluo's right-hand men and some low-level affairs officials among the conservatives.The current situation is one-sided in favor of the radicals.

The 14-year-old hero king Dio Astaire looked even more haggard than yesterday. It seemed that he was exhausted.Because of Ai Fuluo's imprisonment, the war in the south has become more worrying. Now, led by Chrisman, a secretariat speaker, two first-class secretaries and a second-class secretariat have all been attacked. The tragedy of annihilation has arrived.The strength of the Congress has been greatly weakened.

"Mr. Cooktron, I heard that you were also assassinated on Freya Avenue yesterday?" Dio asked Soleichuan in a childish voice.

That was news that had spread throughout the royal city yesterday afternoon.

After Suoleichuan heard this, he immediately performed a military salute. He is now a special personnel incorporated into the military headquarters, "Yes, Your Majesty. Fortunately, the captain of the first patrol team of the library team, Mr. Fiona, passed by to help us. I just escaped."

This statement made some affairs officers who did not know the inside story feel that they were being modest. How could a majestic imperial hero need help from others to get out of trouble.

Dio asked again, "Do you know the purpose of those assassinating people? Whose instructions were they given?"

"Your Majesty, according to what Your Excellency Fiona said, that may have been the work of the Thieves Guild 'Nightingale'." Soleichuan said truthfully, "Those people are all desperadoes. When I defeated one or two of them, I wanted to start from When they learn something from their mouths, they will use ** to destroy all evidence. From my perspective, maybe Chrisman..." Speaking of this matter, Soleichuan acted a slightly sad but unwilling The expression on someone's face when someone discovered, "The affairs of the Speaker of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and other affairs officers may be what Nightingale calls...even Princess Xiaoya's affairs..."

"Has the Nightingale become so rampant?" Suddenly a clerk shouted, "Your Majesty, it is necessary to conduct a thorough search of this royal city! Dig out all those thieves! They are now not only Stealing the level of library books! It’s almost like planning to steal the country!”

The name of the first-class affairs officer is Paul Bovar. As a young man who looks heroic, he is also one of Ai Luo's right-hand men. His previous humiliation can finally be released now.Because Ai Fuluo ordered him not to have too many disputes with Chrisman in Congress while in prison, he has endured it until now.

Although I am very grateful to Nightingale for this action, it is necessary to eliminate them now, and Ai Fuluo has not been completely freed from the crime, but Nightingale jumping out now is definitely a good opportunity.

Glick took a step forward and suggested to the confused Dio, "I think Duke Aiflor should indeed be innocent. Although he is an impulsive young man in most cases, and he often talks to Chrisman. The Speaker has differences. But I think he should understand that killing Chrisman is extremely detrimental to the empire. To re-elect so many important affairs officer positions, coupled with the war in the south, is likely to paralyze the entire system within the empire. .”

Now as one of the Twelve Knights, Glick has been participating in politics in the Congress Hall, but he does not often express his opinions, but in his heart he is more inclined to the approach of the young man Ai Fuluo.

"But Ai Fuluo's interrogation is not over yet, and the truth of many incidents has not yet been found out." One of the conservative middle-aged men stood up.

"If you wait until everything is found out, it will be too late by then. It will be too late! The southern army is now leaderless. Facing Naren's strong attack, it cannot do without Ai Fuluo." Paul's attitude was very extreme, but It is not unreasonable, and now that there is no Chrisman, the conservative proposal is completely useless. "If they break through the Sentley defense line again, can you take on such a thing!"

Immediately no one could object anymore.

Paul continued to speak loudly, "I believe everyone here can see clearly! What kind of image has Mr. Ai Fuluo been appearing in front of everyone! In this matter, I used the human head to I guarantee that someone else must have planned to frame Mr. Ai Fuluo."

It wasn't a very smart excuse, but at this time no one could refute him.

Dio did not look at Paul, but looked at Soleichuan, "Mr. Cooktern, I have seen everything you have done for the empire before. But many priests told me that what happened last night This massacre will be the beginning of the mutation the gods give to the empire because we condone the devil."

The affairs officers looked away and remembered the incident in Hiawasei Town, where people died one after another and various organs were hung on different city gates.

"Gods will not punish people for making mistakes." It was Aicilia who spoke. "Your Majesty, I checked the records of the library teams who went out to pursue them in the library. They hung the organs on the four gates of the town like this. There have been a total of eighteen cases in the empire in the past ten years, and among the human beings with white hair found so far, only Soleichuan has been recorded."

She handed a record to Dior through the guards and said, "This is the record I found in the library yesterday. All the data on it are true, and all can be filed with the library team's records. So I think This method of killing is man-made and has nothing to do with demons or anything else."

Soleichuan looked at Aicilia in surprise, not knowing when she did these investigations.

There was an uproar in the Congress Hall, which even overturned Soleichuan's classification as a first-level heretic.

Although Aicilia has now found this first-hand information, she still secretly hates the empire's system.Obviously these materials have existed for a long time, and because the library team and the Holy Holy See have different affiliations, these materials are kept separately and do not interfere with each other.This led to the wrongful conviction of Soleichuan that year.

For those affairs officers who were not aware of the so-called artificial human incident at all, Aicilia's overthrow was tantamount to proving that Soleichuan, like everyone else, was just an ordinary human being with white hair due to some kind of disease.

Chapter 36 Goodbye Ai Fuluo in the night sky

It is already night sky, and there are one-third fewer guards in the prison than before. Those personnel have been transferred to guard and patrol the royal city.After such a heinous killing happened last night, people in the entire royal city were worried. They were afraid that in the next second, the person who would be exaggeratedly dismembered would be themselves. They could only pray that they had not done anything wrong. You will be protected by gods and angels.

Most of the prisons in the empire are built underground, and the Imperial Detention Center in the Royal City is no exception.Since there is only one entrance, there is no need for prisoners to escape over the wall.It's just that the environment is basically humid, dark, and never sees the light of day.

Ai Fuluo was nibbling the bread for dinner. His thick beard had grown out and his shirt was stained.What he wants now is to take a bath and wash away those dirty fleas from his body.But the reality is that even a sip of water is provided regularly.

The dry throat and low saliva secretion made it difficult to swallow the dry bread, but Ai Fuluo was not willing to waste any crumbs, and even picked up the bits that fell on his clothes and stuffed them into his mouth.

In the past few months, he had experienced countless battlefields. Many times when he was forced into a desperate situation by the Naren army, he had no food to eat for several days in a row.Any bit of food would never go to waste. He knew what it felt like to be hungry, even if this bread was really bad.

When he finally swallowed the last bite of bread, Ai Luo planned to rest on the hard wooden bed for a while.There was the sound of footsteps and the jingle of keys in the corridor.

"Sir Ai Fuluo, congratulations on being released." The jailer who came to open the door smiled and said to the dusty Ai Fuluo.

Ai Fuluo remembered this face. When he was first imprisoned in this prison, he was also the person who often spoke sarcastically to him.Maybe at the time, I felt that even if I was the Speaker, after being accused of assassinating the princess and being thrown into the iron bars, the only thing I was waiting for was the death penalty.In addition, people were affected by the decline of the war in the south, so they naturally did not like the chairman of the military department.

But after Ai Fuluo was released from prison and saw it for half a month, he had already forgotten that face and had no time to think about such small things.

It was Paul Bovar who picked up Ivor outside the prison.

"Commander Aiflor, it was our useless waiting that made you suffer injustice." Paul lowered his head, looking respectful and ashamed.

Ai Fuluo was about to pat him on the shoulder, but he remembered that his hands were too dirty, so he took it back, "I heard that you are the chairman of the military department now. You don't have to be respectful to me anymore. I will obey him in the future." Your instructions."

Ai Fuluo is a soldier and is completely obedient to the instructions of the King of Heroes.

Steward is the title they use in administrative areas like St. Floride.

On the front line, Ai Fuluo was the commander and Paul was the major general.This is a military system formulated by the empire after the abolition of the aristocratic system.

"This is just a strategy used by the King of Heroes to quell disputes. You will always be my superior, and I will always only obey your orders, Lord Ai Fuluo. Even if you are demoted to a commoner, it will still be the same." Paul couldn't help but What I forget is that even as a commander, I can clearly command from the rear and ensure my own safety.

Every time during some critical offensive and defensive battles, Ai Fuluo always rolled up his sleeves and fought bloody battles with the soldiers on the front line.

However, this is still a very undesirable behavior. If you die accidentally, the entire army will collapse.

But every time Ai Fuluo was always very angry and said, "It is their business to consider how to fight the war! And as the commander of the army, I should arouse the passion and fighting spirit of the soldiers! Let me tell them, no matter how powerful they are, The enemy is in front of us, no matter how desperate the situation is, the eagle of the Percy Empire will surely spread its wings!"

At that time, I thought this was a hot-blooded and brainless remark from a reckless man, but I didn’t hate such a person.

"What did that stupid devil do?" Ai Fuluo simply couldn't believe that Soleichuan actually let himself walk out of that dungeon.

Paul told Ai Luo everything that had happened in the past few days at the prison gate.

"It turns out that releasing me was just an emergency measure...but this guy actually did such a thing." When he wanted to say more, he stopped. After all, he was just guessing about Chrisman's identity. The death was caused by Soleichuan without any evidence.

In any case, I was able to escape, and now I owed the devil another favor. On this point, Ai Fuluo didn't feel very happy.

The impromptu emergency meeting in the morning was extremely long, and there was no sign of ending even in the afternoon. Most people did not pay attention to the hunger in their stomachs. Now is the moment that determines the life or death of the empire.

Finally, before evening, a few things were finalized.

Ai Fuluo was temporarily released, but the investigation by the Ministry of Justice must continue. A census was conducted on all the people and officials in the royal city, and everyone was interrogated to verify whether they were members of the Nightingale.

Ai Fuluo was temporarily dismissed from his post, and Paul, the first-class affairs officer of the military department, temporarily replaced the position of chairman of the military department, and adjustments would be made after the truth came out.

Ai Fuluo was incorporated into the military as a second-class affairs officer, while Soleikawa was a first-class affairs officer.In three days, he took the supporting troops to the southern battlefield.

The positions of the four remaining affairs officers who were killed will be temporarily filled by deputy positions, and the specific appointments will be discussed in detail in the future.

Basically, today I just deal with the mess a little bit, so as not to cause bigger troubles from these loopholes.

But Jueti's river dam cannot be blocked with just a few big rocks. Now we can only slow down the losses as much as possible.

"Paul, let's go back to the military headquarters. It's time to sort out our things. There are too many things that have accumulated in the past few days. Tomorrow we will assemble the support troops who will go to the front line." Ai Fuluo turned around and said to Paul who was following him. , "We have no time. If possible, I even hope to go to the battlefield now."

In addition to cleaning myself up in the bathroom in the dormitory after returning to the military headquarters, I also plan to go to the Cooktern Mansion again. It is necessary to study the things that will happen next.

In short, Ai Fuluo felt very lucky to be able to see the sky again so soon.In addition, even if there are many things that are inappropriate and inappropriate about killing Chrisman directly like that, thinking that all those rotten conservatives have been killed will give rise to uncontrollable joy.

Chapter 37 Unfinished Revenge

That night at the Cooktern Mansion, Soleichuan was not idle. He was dealing with the troublesome woman who suddenly broke into the door - Fiona.

"Let me ask you! Did you do all these things?" Fiona kicked open the door of the mansion.

When the housekeeper wanted to go out, he was stopped by Soleichuan. He stood up from the dining table and stopped his meal.

"What are you talking about?..." Soleichuan said with a playful smile. Of course he knew what Fiona wanted to say.

"You let Chrisman die so easily!" Fiona advanced to Soleichuan's side at lightning speed and pinched the collar of his shirt. "You let that old guy die like a hero! Now in the royal city They are all sighing for his death! This kind of thing is not what I want! Soleichuan! You broke the agreement between us!"

Icilia immediately drew her sword and lit the flames.

Soleichuan waved his hand to signal him not to use force, and then said to Fiona, "Even if you have such and such complaints, we don't have time here."

In fact, before discussing with Fiona at the beginning, I did think about finding evidence and clues to solve the matter at hand step by step, but when I heard Fiona say something so rotten, it was so deep-rooted.Only then did Soleichuan realize that there was no time to waste time. "If we look for evidence slowly, maybe the empire would have been occupied by Naren's soldiers by then."

"That kind of thing doesn't matter at all!" Fiona was deeply angry. From the black eyepatch, scorching anger seemed to be coming out, "What happens to the future of the empire has nothing to do with me! I just want to humiliate Ke Riesman, and you killed him so easily.”

"You are mistaken. The person who killed him was not me, but Nightingale. Why don't you ask their leader if they did it? It seems that the Ministry of Justice has begun a large-scale search for Nightingale's whereabouts. I think it must be There will be results soon." Soleichuan planned to pretend to the end. After all, there were many servants here watching and listening, and there was no way to admit that he killed Chrisman.

If the performance is good, those people will only think that Soleichuan is also being messed with by this crazy woman.

"Nightingale would not make such a large-scale move, nor would she kill Chrisman." Fiona insisted that Soleichuan was the murderer.

"Oh? You seem to be on Nightingale's side. You can be so sure that this is definitely not Nightingale's fault." Soleichuan was just making nonsense.

Unexpectedly, Fiona's expression changed drastically, "Soleichuan, what are you talking about."

He wanted to raise his fist and hit Soleichuan in the face.

With great force, he punched Soleichuan far away.

This is a very interesting devil. The punch just now was obviously held back when it was about to be punched out. It was not very fast, but he did not dodge it.

Fiona couldn't understand the thoughts of the white-haired devil. He had clearly negotiated everything with her yesterday, but then he turned around and killed the conservative Chrisman's family.What a perfidious devil this is, and the devil's words are so unbelievable.

"Do you feel satisfied after being beaten? Are you discouraged?" Soleichuan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "I know you are confused now, and I can understand your mood."

To be honest, Fiona only realized now that she actually has no goal to strive for.

When I came here before, I only thought about how to teach Soleichuan a lesson, but now after punching him and letting out a little bit of his anger, I finally remembered that it had been so long.Whether you want to join the library team, whether you want to become better, exercise your body, or learn magic, everything is to defeat Chrisman, to bring him down, to make him live and die, and to ruin his reputation. .

But now, Chrisman is dead, and the murderer of his mother was easily killed by Soleichuan.

So what is your future path?

There is no point in learning magic or fighting in the Library Team, and the Library Team's "Percy Empire Magic Regulations" clearly stipulates that once you join the team, you cannot leave the team by your own will.

Soleichuan could actually understand Fiona's mental state, and he had already thought of this before Fiona came.So he deserved to be punched once or twice.As for whether he really killed Chrisman, Soleichuan would never admit it.

For the pain caused to Fiona, Soleichuan could only apologize slightly in his heart.

"It turns out that the heroes of the empire don't like to have portals in their homes." Ai Fuluo came in at this time.

He has put on a clean military uniform, shaved off all the stubble on his face, and his mental outlook has completely returned to what it was before he was imprisoned.

When Fiona saw this guest, she immediately rushed out of the door.

"Hey, what's going on?" Ai Fuluo asked Soleichuan with the mentality of watching the excitement, "Is it a third party?"

"It seems that prison life has reduced your thinking ability by more than a hundred levels." Soleichuan did not accept this rare joke from the unsmiling Ai Fuluo.

"If I read correctly, this is someone from the library team."

Ai Fuluo said looking at the door that was kicked off on the floor.Although Fiona was not wearing a uniform and was still wearing the same sloppy clothes, Ai Fuluo recognized her based on the unique eyepatch.

"You came here to thank me, right?" Soleichuan took a clean cloth and wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Instead, Ai Fuluo sneered, "You haven't done anything worthy of my gratitude, and I don't think killing Chrisman is a rational choice. This will only make the empire collapse faster."

Although Ai Fuluo hates Chrisman and wants to kill him.But after all, Chrisman has always been handling matters in the Imperial Ministry of Internal Affairs.He is responsible for the assessment and appointment of local affairs officers throughout the empire.Because the Ministry of Internal Affairs has always been firmly controlled by conservatives, there is no way to eradicate it.Now that Chrisman was dead, it was impossible to find a radical who was more familiar with the matter.

And the remaining conservative affairs officials are all useless and useless.Therefore, although Chrisman was hateful, Ai Fuluo did not dare to kill him rashly. Otherwise, with the military power in his hands, it would be easy to kill one or two Chrisman and then find someone to take the blame.

"You all really like to put the reputation of this murderer on my head." Soleichuan pretended to smile helplessly.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, disrespect, disrespect." Ai Fuluo bent down and bowed to Soleichuan.

Full of sarcasm.

Chapter 38 Unfinished Transaction

"You haven't forgotten that we still have a deal, right?" Soleichuan looked at Ai Fuluo coldly.

Now that Chrisman is gone, the position of the radicals is very strong.The King of Heroes was not unaware of the corruption of the conservatives, but the reason why he had not dismissed them was that if there were no conservatives, then the radicals would pose a threat to the royal power when they had no enemies.So keeping their factions in balance and a constant struggle is necessary.

As a result of Soleichuan directly killing Chrisman, the King of Heroes could only rely on Ai Fuluo's radical faction. The future and destiny of the empire were almost entirely in the hands of Ai Fuluo's faction.
