From Prisoner to Si Chen

"After this battle, the core members of the 'White Dove Tower' have basically died. Even if this secret society organization is not disbanded, it will only exist in name only from now on."

Alevia smiled.

The two walked on the tree-lined path.

Perhaps because of the destruction of the "White Dove Tower", Baiou was in a good mood, and the corners of her mouth kept a raised arc.

"Jilan, what are you going to do next?"

Alevia turned her head slightly and asked the purple-eyed young man beside her.

"You should go back to the Bremen Empire first. The arrangements for the future will be discussed after I finish dealing with things here."

Jilan glanced at her and said softly.

Alevia was startled.

"Don't you need my help?"

"No." Gilan shook his head. "I came to the Federation not only to deal with the three secret societies, but also to draw out the Federation's high-end combat power... It is very likely that I will face the Ascendants and even the Apostles. You can't help with this level of battle."

"I know."

Alevia sighed secretly and nodded sensibly.

She actually knew that with her own strength of only level 4, she might still drag Gilan down.

Gilan stopped.

While no one was around, he flicked his fingers.

Crack!

A silver arc jumped out from his fingers and landed on the ground in front of the two people, forming a small alchemy array with a diameter of about one meter.

"Stand on it." Gilan raised his chin to indicate. "Through the alchemy array, you will be directly teleported back to Musciti, the capital of the Bremen Empire... My secretary, Miss Mavi Martyr, should be waiting in the office."

"Okay." Alevia said.

She lifted her skirt, bowed to Gilan, and then stood on the alchemy array obediently.

Raising her beautiful eyes, Alevia bit her lip and whispered:

"I'll wait for you to come back."

"Yeah." Jilan smiled slightly. "I'll be back soon."

Swoosh!

The figure of the woman in white standing on the alchemy array flashed, and she disappeared in almost the blink of an eye.

Then, the alchemy array on the ground also disappeared.

After a period of trance, Alevia's consciousness was distorted and stretched.

When she came to her senses, she found herself in a clean and spacious office.

There was a faint sandalwood scent in the air.

In front of her, a man and a woman stood, silently examining her.

"Huh?!" Alevia immediately became alert.

"Please don't be nervous."

At this time, the woman in uniform and with a single ponytail spoke.

"I am Mave Matriye, the personal secretary of Chairman Gillan Ilos. Are you Miss Alevia Berry?"

"It's me." After hearing the other party's self-introduction, Alevia lowered her guard a little and nodded.

At this time, she turned her eyes to the man. Alevia was stunned at the sight.

The man was very young, about the same age as Gillan.

But his face was more perfect than the most outstanding sculpture, with three-dimensional and deep features, and extremely handsome. The long red curly hair set off an indescribable mysterious temperament, and the scarlet eyes seemed not like a mortal on earth.

The mysterious man was only wearing a simple linen robe, with his hands behind his back, looking at himself with a smile on his lips.

"Who are you?"

Alevia frowned and asked.

"Caesar." The man said softly.

"?!" Alevia's pupils shrank.

Caesar...

In the Bremen Empire, there is only one person who dares to call this name.

That is the head of the empire, Caesar Jide!

So, could this young man in front of him be the head of state? !

Alevia was a little unbelievable.

"Miss Alevia, it seems that you should be the federal informant that Gilan mentioned?"

Caesar said in a gentle tone.

"Thank you very much for your contribution to the empire and for being willing to take the risk of lurking in the 'White Dove Tower' to help Gilan completely wipe out this mysterious organization that has been infamous."

"You...you are too kind, Mr. Head of State."

Alevia reacted immediately and bowed her head.

Caesar chuckled.

He suddenly turned his head and glanced at the empty space next to the curved desk. This action was captured by Alevia and Maiwei, and they all followed the head of state's sight, but there was nothing there, nothing worth noting.

Alevia and Maiwei murmured in their hearts, wondering what the head of state was attracted to.

But what they didn't know was that a hint of surprise flashed in Caesar's eyes.

Because he clearly "saw" the mirror image left by Gillan. Moreover, even Caesar didn't know what the mirror image was for. He just guessed that it might be some kind of back-up plan left by Gillan.

"Interesting." Caesar murmured. "Although I can see it, I can't destroy it... What kind of power is this? Is it the reason why you dare to risk your life?"

The two women listened to the head of state talking to himself, not knowing why.

Caesar smiled.

He suddenly raised his hand and waved.

Starlight scattered from the empty hole in the palm of his hand, like floating catkins, forming a projection in the air in the office.

Alevia and Maiwei looked up and were shocked to see that the picture on the projection was a young man with purple eyes walking on the tree-lined path.

"Let me see what our empire's 'Red Sage' is going to do in the Federation..."

Caesar said with interest.

…

…

Gillan suddenly stopped.

His powerful gnosis suddenly noticed that three eyes were secretly watching him.

Raise your head and look into the void.

bite!

The "Guidance Tips" of the original ability that had been "updated" suddenly showed colorful writing:

"You are under the watchful eyes of Caesar Geed, Maiev Martirie, and Alevia Berry."

Looking at the prompt entry, Gillan suddenly understood.

With a smile on his face, he picked up the white cane, gently pressed it against his left chest, and bowed his head slightly towards the void.

This is a tribute to Caesar.

Immediately, Gilan raised his cane and pointed it in front of him.

Crack!

The silver arc fell to the ground and turned into an alchemical formation.

He took a step forward and disappeared.

When he reappeared, Gilan had traveled thousands of kilometers, from the federal city of "Waterhees" to the city of "Mette".

The secret base of this teleportation is in a small farm.

Gilan was in the open space outside the sheep pen. Through the wooden fence, he could see piles of golden grass all around, with two pitchforks of different models leaning on the side.

Soon, a bearded man wearing a torn straw hat and a striped shirt and shorts ran over with a scythe.

At the man's feet was a brown and white short-haired beagle.

This man seemed to be a farmer. After seeing Ji Lan, his expression changed. He quickly stood still, dropped the scythe in his hand and made a cross salute.

"'Secret Commissioner' Michael Kenney has met Chairman Guillain Iros!"

His voice was sonorous and powerful, and the hound at his feet also barked twice.

When Jilan saw this, he smiled and said:

"You're very motivated, Commissioner Michael."

"Please also ask the Chairman to issue instructions!"

The bearded man couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard the compliment, and then lowered his head and said.

"Give me a map of 'Mette', and also give me information about the town called 'Saftoto' in the east."

Gillan Road.

Michael quickly agreed and said wait a moment.

Immediately, he led his pet dog and ran back.

After a while, the secret committee member rushed back again and handed a small book and a map into Gillan's hands.

"Well done."

Gillan took the things and nodded.

Immediately, he picked up his cane and walked eastward, saying without looking back:

"My trip will completely eliminate the 'Ascetic Sect' entrenched in the town of 'Saftoto'. You should be prepared in advance."

"Ah?" Michael looked shocked. It took him a few seconds to recover. He saluted the young man's back from a distance and said, "Yes! Mr. Chairman!"

His bearded face showed excitement.

…

…

The town of Saftote is a remote town located on the outskirts of the federal city of Mete.

According to "Black Sandpiper" Weiner, the town was famous for its rich mineral resources. The residents of the town mostly rely on quarrying and carving as their main livelihood.

The town is quite closed and exclusive.

At the same time, there is also a hidden secret——

This is the headquarters of the "Ascetic Sect".

Basically all the residents of the town are believers in the "Sculpture Church", who believe in the "Mrs. Ya" of June Sichen, and the "Mason" of June, who is in charge of sculpture skills and blesses the smooth mining of stones.

And this "Sculpture Church" is actually secretly controlled by the "Ascetic Sect".

If Weiner, the elder of the sect, had not told him personally, how would ordinary people know these secrets.

This shows how deeply hidden the "Ascetic Sect" is.

It was almost evening.

It was dark.

When Gilan stepped into the town, he found that there were not many pedestrians on the road, and only a few women were walking with their children.

When they saw him, a gentleman wearing a suit and leather tie, holding a white cane, and with extremely rare hair and eyes, these women showed extremely vigilant and hostile expressions.

Gilan ignored these local women.

He came to eradicate the "Ascetic Sect", but he would not kill innocent people indiscriminately and attack these ordinary people.

Gilan held his cane and slowly walked to the center of the town, stopping in front of a small church with a rather classical and exquisite architectural style.

This church is where the "Sculpted Church" is located.

There is a six-column porch outside the door, which is integrated with the wall in the form of gradient emergence, and the visual effect is quite impressive.

Each pillar is carved with extremely detailed and exquisite reliefs, praising the hard work and diligence of the quarryers and carvers.

Just when Jilan stopped.

However, three large carriages hurried over and stopped ten meters away from him.

Nearly twenty small-town police officers in yellow-brown uniforms jumped out of the carriage, holding revolvers and aiming at Gillan with vigilant faces.

"Sorry sir, please raise your hands!"

A middle-aged police officer shouted in a deep voice.

"According to local residents' reports, they said there was a sneaky strange man wandering around the town..."

Ji Lan just glanced at them casually. Under his spiritual vision, he realized that these police officers were just ordinary people, so he didn't bother to pay attention to them.

He took a step and disappeared completely, entering the church...
