Chapter 1221 Release
Han Xiao turned off the interface, prepared a request to visit EsGod, and sent it to the dynasty.After a short while, he received the response.
“Hmm? My file got sent back?”
Han Xiao looked at the virtual screen in front of him that was showing the request file he sent to the dynasty.
A red stamp was added to the bottom right corner of the file that wrote ‘Unapproved’ in the dynasty’s language. This ant that his request was rejected.
“The dynasty isn’t letting visit EsGod. What does that an?”
Han Xiao frowned. He took out his communicator, thought for a while, and did not call Urranrell’s private number but her office.
The communicator rang for a while and was picked up very soon. Seeing that it was Black Star calling, the liaison officer directed the call to the head secretary of the office.
“Your Excellency Black Star, what can I do for you?” The head secretary had a good relationship with Han Xiao.
“I have just sent a request to visit EsGod, but it was not approved. Is this Urranrell’s decision?”
“Ah, Her Excellency has been attending a eting, so it shouldn’t be her. I didn’t know about this. Your request was not reported to us.”
“Can you check which departnt processed the request for ?”
“Sure, please wait for a mont...”
The head secretary searched through the internal system for a while and brought up the files before sighing.
“This is the collective decision of the dynasty’s main artificial intelligence, Heroic Soul, and the prison departnt. I looked at their internal remarks. The location of EsGod is top secret, and no one is allowed to visit under normal circumstances. Your Excellency Black Star, you are a special case. You’re surprisingly on their visiting blacklist...”
“Why am I on the blacklist? What did I do?” Han Xiao was confused.
The head secretary sighed and said, “You didn’t do anything, but you’re currently the only person in the world who can release EsGod. Therefore, before the five-hundred-year sentence ends, you’re not allowed to visit...”
Han Xiao was speechless.
I caught EsGod for the dynasty, and now I can’t even visit him?
Alright, from the dynasty’s perspective, this is logical. I’m the only person in the universe who can open the Spaceti Amber seal, so I’m the only one who has the ability to release him. This way, the reason for the dynasty rejecting my visit seems normal. It’s simply to avoid risk.
Although it was not wrong for the dynasty to do this, Han Xiao was still disheartened emotionally.
He thought the request would be smoothly approved. He did not expect it to get rejected.
“Can’t sothing be done?” Han Xiao frowned.
“The authorization level for EsGod’s prison is very high. If you must visit him, you’ll have to ask the Ruler to help. She can approve your request, but it’ll need a sensible reason, otherwise...”
Hearing that, Han Xiao nodded.
He had quite a good relationship with Urranrell, but there was no way she could just approve it without a valid reason.
Han Xiao hung up the communication. Urranrell was in a quite important eting, so he had to wait a while before he could contact her. Since there was ti, he used it to think about what to say.
“I was going to see EsGod by visiting him, but sadly, that won’t work. Without a valid reason, the dynasty won’t allow to get close to EsGod’s cell in any form. Even the coordinates of the prison are a secret, and I don’t have the authority to check it...”
Han Xiao tutted with dissatisfaction.
Simply saying he wanted to check on EsGod would not be able to convince the dynasty. Plus, he had to open the amber seal if he wanted to check on EsGod. The best thod was still to co up with a special reason so that the dynasty would allow him to open the amber. The risk of this thod was the lowest.
If he could not convince the dynasty, he would probably have to imitate Old Manison and try to hack into the dynasty’s database to search for related information. Although he would offend the dynasty by doing so, stealing information was not too serious an offence... but this could only be the backup plan.
After a while, the secretary sent a ssage to him saying that the Ruler’s eting ended. Han Xiao then called Urranrell’s private number, and it was picked up very quickly.
Urranrell appeared on the screen with a calm face and cut to the chase.
“Black Star, I heard you just tried to contact and want to visit EsGod, why?”
Although she hid it very well, Han Xiao was very observant and saw that Urranrell was a little ntally tired. He thought about it and said, “EsGod has already been locked up for decades. I want to open the seal and check on the status of his soul. ”
“Is that necessary?” Urranrell frowned. “You were the one who suggested the five-hundred-year sentence, and it’s only been a few decades. With EsGod’s strength, his soul won’t have dissipated this quickly. Opening the seal now will only cause trouble.”
“Ahem, I was not strong enough back then and had a limited understanding of the level of strength EsGod has. That’s why I suggested that the sentence should be as long as possible. Five hundred years was just a rough estimate. Now that I’ve reached this level and have a deeper understanding of the Spaceti Amber, I’ve discovered that wiping out the soul of a Beyond Grade A probably won’t take that long.”
Han Xiao said the reason he had prepared. He did not have proof to explain his suspicion of Gaud, so saying that would only make the dynasty suspicious. Thus, he did not ntion Gaud.
Urranrell did not doubt him but still shook her head and said, “I don’t think that’s needed. EsGod is too dangerous. I still think imprisoning him is the safest. The dynasty can afford to wait that long.”
Han Xiao expected Urranrell to say this; he was not surprised. “Experinting on him is just one of the goals. I actually have other worries. I’ve only co to understand how strong soone at this level is, and thinking back now, I realized that capturing EsGod was too easy. Sothing’s not right. From what I know about EsGod, he very likely escaped using so kind of soul-related ability. I’m worried that we’ve been tricked, so I want to open the seal and check.”
Urranrell’s eyes flickered, but she was still not very convinced.
“Evidence?”
Han Xiao deliberately spoke in a solemn tone. “This is just speculation, which is why I want to verify it. But if you need evidence, you can ask Lotus Swordsman. Back when we caught EsGod, she sensed a strange soul ripple from EsGod. I suspect that was where the problem lay.”
Gaud was a star the dynasty had high hopes for, so ntioning him was not a wise choice. Han Xiao’s words were mainly targeted at EsGod.
Hearing this, Urranrell finally beca serious about the issue and imdiately told the head secretary to contact Lotus Swordsman.
Lotus Swordsman ca online very quickly and agreed that it did happen. Only about thirty years had passed since it happened, so she rembered it vividly.
Seeing this, Han Xiao heaved a sigh of relief in his mind. This evidence actually could not prove anything. Everyone thought that it was just EsGod’s final aningless struggle. However, now that he made use of it to make his excuse sound more convincing... If this did not happen, convincing Urranrell would probably have been much more difficult.
Having received a response, Urranrell went silent, seemingly analyzing the pros and cons. After a while, she looked up right at Han Xiao’s eyes and said seriously, “Black Star, if EsGod gets free, can you guarantee you can capture him again?”
Han Xiao smiled. “I could do it then; I can do it now.”
He no longer had the Esper Silence Character Summon Card, but after decades, he was much stronger than before. Even if his guess was wrong, he would just have to seal EsGod up once more.
Furthermore, the others did not know that the Character Summon Card was a one-ti ability. They would only think that he could still use the ability.
Urranrell pondered for quite a while and nodded in the end.
“Okay, I’ll approve it! Since your suspicion makes sense, open the seal and check EsGod’s status. Make sure that we did not capture an empty shell!”
...
Over ten days later...
A huge cube shaped chanical building hovered in space. It was a galactic fortress covered with armor and shields that were more than enough to endure bombardnts from hostile fleets. This was the space prison EsGod was locked up in.
At this point of ti, dense dynasty fleets surrounded the prison. Cannons extended from every battleship, all ready to fire.
A black silhouette hovered near the prison. It was Han Xiao. He had opened the secondary dinsional army box and was summoning his army, forming a second encirclent.
Gaud was still on his way in the Flickering World. Han Xiao wasted no ti and directly used the King to teleport into the dynasty’s subdivision in their territory, boarded the dynasty fleet that was there to pick him up, spent about ten days traveling, and finally arrived at this restricted area.
After summoning countless chanical soldiers, Han Xiao finally closed the secondary dinsional army box gate and said in the communication channel, “I’m ready. Activate all spaceti stabilization devices and open the prison core.”
“Roger.” The fleet commander’s serious voice sounded in the channel.
The next mont, an invisible ripple extended from the fleet’s center. The spaceti of this area instantly ‘tightened’. The spaceti coefficients of this area beca extrely stable. Almost all abilities related to spaceti beca useless.
Then, the space prison opened layers by layers like a blossoming flower showing its stan. The core of the prison was an egg-shaped cabin that stored the Spaceti Amber of EsGod, tightly locked in place by the chanical structure of the prison.
As the prison opened, the egg-shaped cabin was unlocked as well. Its independent power system started operating. The thrusters shot out flas and slowly pushed the cabin out.
As Han Xiao extended his arm, his chanical Force pulled the ten-ter-long egg-shaped cabin toward him. He then opened the cabin door.
A familiar face entered his sights. It was EsGod, who had been trapped in the Spaceti Amber for decades. He still had the sa expression and posture as his last mont of freedom before he was locked up.
“All units ready! Prepare to fire!”
The fleet commander’s grave toned voice sounded in the communication channel.
Even after decades, the fear EsGod had left in people’s hearts had yet to fade away.
“Now, it’s ti to verify my speculation...”
Han Xiao looked into EsGod’s eyes, took a deep breath, took out the core of the Spaceti Amber, and poked at the Spaceti Amber seal.
Pop!
It was as if the crisp sound of the Spaceti Amber shattering could be heard.
The prison that locked EsGod up was opened, but his body did not move. It only floated in the vacuum right before Han Xiao’s eyes.
“Is it already an empty shell...”
Han Xiao took out a suction plate shaped device and placed it on EsGod. This was a device used to detect the state of one’s soul.
Although chanics were not experts in the soul territory, at his level, building a device to only detect if the target had a soul was not a problem.
As the suction plate was just about to touch EsGod’s body, the next mont, Han Xiao suddenly felt a resistance force at his wrist as if soone suddenly grabbed his wrist tightly. His hand stopped moving abruptly.
Han Xiao imdiately looked up at EsGod’s eyes that had color once again.
At the sa ti, a deep mind ssage entered Han Xiao’s mind.
“Like I said, we’d et again sooner or later...”
