Han Xiao closed the panel, wrote an application, and sent an application to the empire to visit Ability God.
It didn't take long for him to receive a reply.
"Huh? Did you type my file back?"
Han Xiao looked at the virtual screen in front of him in surprise, which displayed the application documents after the imperial approval.
In the lower right corner of the document, there is a red seal with the words "Not Approved" written in common imperial characters, that is, the application has been rejected.
"The empire won't let me visit Ability God, what does this mean?"
Han Xiao frowned, took out the communicator, thought about it, did not call Ulan Riel's private line, but took the line of the head of state's office.
The communicator rang for a while, and was quickly answered. When the liaison officer saw that the caller was Black Star, he transferred the line to the Secretary General of the Office of the Head of State.
"Your Excellency Black Star, what's the matter with you?" The Secretary-General had a good relationship with Han Xiao and asked.
"That's it, I just submitted an application to visit Ability God, but it didn't pass the approval and was called back. Is this what Ulan Riel meant?"
"Ah, Your Excellency the Führer has been in meetings. It shouldn't be her. I don't know about this matter. Your application has not been reported to us."
"Can you help me find out which department did it?"
"Okay, just a second..."
The secretary-general operated in the internal system for a while, and used the authority to call up the file, his tone suddenly became helpless.
"This is the joint judgment of the Empire's main intelligence 'Heroic Soul' and the prison department. I read their internal remarks. The location of the Empire's detention is top secret, and generally no one is allowed to visit. on the visitation blacklist…”
"Why am I on the blacklist, what have I done?" Han Xiao just felt inexplicable.
The secretary-general said helplessly: "You didn't do anything, but you are currently the only person in the world who has the ability to release Ability God, so you are not allowed to visit until the scheduled five-hundred-year prison term expires..."
Han Xiao was immediately speechless.
Ability God was caught by me for the empire, but now I am not qualified to visit myself
Well, from the perspective of the empire, this approach is quite reasonable. For the time being in the universe, only I can unlock the time-space amber prison. The former arrester has become the only potential releaser. In this way, It seemed normal for the Empire to refuse my visit, avoiding the greatest risk.
But... Although the empire's approach is correct, emotionally, Han Xiao is inevitably a little chilled.
He thought the application would pass smoothly, but he didn't expect to get stuck in this link.
"Can't you be accommodating?" Han Xiao frowned.
"The management authority of Ability God Prison is very high. If you must visit, you can only ask the head of state for help. She has the right to force your application to pass, but there must be a reasonable reason, otherwise..." The secretary-general euphemistically said.
Hearing this, Han Xiao nodded.
I have a good personal relationship with Ulan Riel, but it is impossible for others to open the back door casually unless they have a legitimate reason.
After a few simple words, Han Xiao hung up the communication. Ulan Riel was holding a more important meeting. He had to wait for a while before he could contact others. Taking advantage of this time, he just wanted to say something.
'I originally wanted to use the excuse of visiting to approach Ability God, but unfortunately it didn't work. There was no last resort. The empire did not allow me to approach Ability God's prison in any form. Even the prison coordinates were kept secret, and only specific permissions can be viewed. I also have no right to inquire...'
Han Xiao tutted in dissatisfaction.
The reason for visiting cannot convince the empire, and if you want to check the status of Ability God, you must unlock the amber seal. The best plan is to make up a special reason for the empire to take the initiative to allow him to open the amber with the least risk.
If you can't be convinced, I'm afraid that you will follow the old Maitou and try to sneak into the imperial database to steal the corresponding information. Although this will offend the empire, the behavior of stealing information is not too bad, not to the point of turning your face... This can only be prepared for Choose a plan.
After a while, the secretary-general sent a message saying that the head of state had finished the meeting, and Han Xiao dialed Ulan Riel's private number, which was quickly connected.
The figure of Ulan Riel appeared on the screen, his face was calm, and he went straight to the point.
"Black Star, I heard that you came to me just now and wanted to visit Ability God, why?"
Although she hid it well, Han Xiao's observation skills were amazing, seeing that Ulan Riel's mental state was a little tired, he thought about it, and said:
"Ability God has been imprisoned for decades. I want to open a prison to check the state of Ability God's soul."
"Is this necessary?" Ulan Riel frowned, "You suggested that we set a five-hundred-year prison term, and now only a few decades have passed. With the rank of Ability God, the soul will not be wiped out so quickly. , opening it now is just adding trouble."
"Cough, at that time my rank was not high enough, and my understanding of the power of Ability God was limited, so I tried to exaggerate the sentence as much as possible. Five hundred years is just an insurance statement. And I have grown to the point where I am now. Time-space amber has conducted further research and found that it may not take that long to wipe out a super-a-level soul."
Han Xiao spoke the prepared remarks again. He had no evidence to explain his doubts about Gothe, but he would also attract the suspicion of the empire, so he simply did not involve Gothe.
Ulan Riel did not suspect him, but shook his head, still not agreeing, said: "I don't think it is necessary, Ability God is too dangerous, I still think it is safest to detain him for five hundred years, at this time the empire will wait. rise."
Han Xiao had expected that the head of state might say this, and it was not surprising at all, and explained: "The experiment is only one of the goals. In fact, I still have some vague worries. I have grown up to this day, and I understand how powerful this rank is. In retrospect. At the beginning, I found out that Ability God was caught too smoothly, very strange. Based on my understanding of Ability God, he probably left a backhand for himself and escaped by means of soul transfer. I was worried about cheating, so I want to open a prison inspection."
Ulan Riel's eyes moved, but he still didn't quite believe it.
"Where's the evidence?"
Han Xiao pretended to be serious: "This is just a guess, so it needs to be verified, but if you insist on witnessing, you can ask Swordsman Fu, when she was besieging Ability God, she sensed the strangeness of Ability God. Mental fluctuations, I suspect there is a problem there."
Gothe is a new star with high hopes in the empire. It is not a wise choice to mention this person in his words, so Han Xiao’s rhetoric is mainly aimed at Ability God.
Hearing this, Ulan Riel became serious and immediately ordered the secretary-general to contact Swordsman Fu.
Swordsman Fu went online very quickly and gave a positive answer. It had only been about thirty years, and she naturally remembered what she saw at that time.
Seeing this, Han Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. This evidence does not actually prove anything. Everyone regarded it as a futile struggle of Ability God, but at this time, it was used by himself and increased his persuasive power... If it weren't for this, now On the contrary, it is not easy to persuade the head of state.
After getting the answer, Ulan Riel fell silent, as if analyzing the pros and cons. After a while, she looked up at Han Xiao's eyes and said solemnly:
"Black Star, if Ability God regains his freedom, can you guarantee to catch him?"
"What I could do then, I can do now."
Han Xiao smiled.
Now there is no super quiet character card, and a big hole card is missing, but after decades of growth, he has long been different from what he used to be. Even if he guesses wrong, it is just another draw.
And other people don't know that the character card is only a one-time skill, they will only think that he still has this method.
Ulan Riel pondered for a long time, and finally nodded.
"Okay, I approve! Since your suspicions are justified, open the prison to check the situation of Ability God and make sure that what we have caught is not an empty shell!"
…
More than ten days later.
Constellation Corridor, in the territory of the Scarlet Empire, a secret military forbidden area.
A huge cubic mechanical building is suspended in the starry sky. The appearance is an interstellar armed fortress built by giant engineering. The surface is covered with armor and shields that are hard enough to withstand the bombardment of the fleet.
At this moment, the dense imperial fleet surrounded the prison, every battleship extended its muzzle, and all kinds of weapons were in a state that could be activated.
And there is a black figure suspended not far from the prison. It is Han Xiao. He opened the secondary dimension barracks and is summoning legions on a large scale to form a second layer of encirclement and surround the prison.
Gothe was still on his way in Glittering World, Han Xiao raced against time, and directly used the emperor to transfer the body to the branch in the empire. It took about ten days to come to this military forbidden area by taking the imperial fleet that came to respond.
Han Xiao summoned countless mechanical troops, and finally closed the gate of the secondary dimension barracks, and said in the communication channel:
"I'm ready to activate all time-space locking devices immediately and open the prison core."
"Received." The fleet commander's solemn voice sounded in the channel.
The next moment, one after another invisible fluctuations opened with the fleet as the center. This space was instantly "tightened", and the space-time coefficient of the area became extremely stable, basically invalidating all the abilities related to space.
Immediately afterwards, the space prison seemed to be in full bloom, and the structures unfolded layer by layer, revealing the stamens. At the core was the egg-shaped cabin that stored Ability God's space-time amber, which was firmly locked and fitted by the prison's mechanical structure.
As the prison opened, the egg-shaped cabin was released from the locked mode, the independent power system began to operate, and the propeller ejected tail flames and flew out of the cabin slowly.
Han Xiao stretched out his hand, and the Mechanical Force arc pulled the ten-meter-long egg-shaped cabin in front of him, and reached out to open the cabin door.
A familiar face that he hadn't seen for many years jumped into view. It was the Ability God who was imprisoned in time-space amber for decades. He still maintained the appearance when he was frozen, and his expressions and movements were all frozen at the last moment of freedom.
"The units are in place! Be ready to fire at any time!"
The fleet commander's solemn voice sounded in the communication channel.
Over the past few decades, the shadow left by Ability God has not completely disappeared in people's hearts.
"Now it's time to test the conjecture..."
Han Xiao stared at Ability God's eyes, took a deep breath of dark energy, turned his hand and took out the time-space amber core and poked it.
Bo - the crisp sound of time-space amber breaking as if rang in my ears
The cage that imprisoned Ability God was lifted, but his body did not move, just floating in a gravity-free vacuum environment, right in front of Han Xiao.
"Is it already an empty shell..."
Han Xiao took out a suction cup-shaped device and attached it to Ability God, which is an instrument used to detect the state of the soul.
Although the mechanic is not good at the spiritual field, at his level, it is not a problem to create a device that is simply used to detect whether the target has a soul.
The suction cup was about to be attached to the body of Ability God, but at the next moment, Han Xiao only felt his wrist tighten, as if he was grabbed by someone, and stopped in mid-air.
Han Xiao suddenly raised his head, and he was greeted by Ability God's re-animated eyes.
At the same moment, a meaningful spiritual message entered Han Xiao's mind.
"As I said, we'll meet again sooner or later..."
