Chapter 125: Grace Day

It has been 4 days since I got my last name.

Since the commendation meeting has not yet been held, there are no more than five people who know that Vega has received the surname Kareni, but correspondingly, the arrest warrant for Vega has been revoked a few days ago.

Because the holder of the surname is not convicted by the trial system.

First of all, the bearer of the surname, necessarily a hero loyal to the empire, and the likelihood of such a person committing a crime is almost none.

Secondly, even if some mistakes are made, they must be insignificant, and of course they should be forgiven compared to great merit.

Moreover, the holders of surnames above the city level, the total number of people in the empire does not exceed 25, which naturally requires special affairs.

Of course, the way to judge the holder of the surname is not for nothing.

If you want to judge a city-level surname holder, you first need to collect the intention signatures of 1/10 of the population or 1 million people of the city to which the surname belongs, which is an extremely labor-intensive and material-intensive work, not to mention whether it can be collected or not.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as the city-level surname holders do not commit the sins of anger and resentment, almost no one can target them with blatant accusations and righteousness.

Sum up.

Vega no longer has to worry about anyone else in Kareni's territory who will put some kind of crime on his head, the only thing he needs to care about is the improvement of his strength, in case of the forces of all parties secretly targeting.

Besides.

Once Vega was out of Kareni territory, the surname brought him only a capital of glory and respect, and he did not enjoy all the privileges of being in the city of Kareni.

For Vega, this is more than enough.

Vega, who was patrolling the center of the city with a brigade of professionals, stopped and retracted his thoughts.

In the past four days, 15,000 soldiers were all dispatched to secretly blockade the entire city of Kareni, but anyone who wanted to go out of the city gate of the law enforcement team came to arrest one by one, and one team to close the other.

And Vega received different orders than ordinary troops.

At present, the whole army, including Vega, 4 professional brigades, 1 mage squadron, 1 mage squadron, and 2 mage squads of the Inquisition system, are blocking the central area of Kareni.

They received information.

More than a week ago, the head of the General Directorate of Law Enforcement, Bruno Valen, moved into the core control area of the Careni Center, the Crystal Hub, which was originally heavily guarded by the General Directorate of Law Enforcement, and its security level was more than five times that of the General Directorate of Law Enforcement.

Or to others, it seems normal.

But the high-level people clearly knew that this was Bruno who knew that his identity might be revealed, so he hid here, trying to use the crystal hub as a threat, so that the military and the trial system would not dare to forcibly encircle and suppress.

Plus the Crystal Hub has always been the responsibility of the government system.

Bruno's control of this place can be said to be very familiar, and the traps and the distribution of troops are all arranged by him.

In order to prevent Bruno from doing something that would break the net.

The military and the trial system did not dare to forcibly allow mages and professionals to break through to the core control area of the crystal hub without being 100% sure, and once the crystal hub was destroyed, even if Bruno was cut with a thousand knives, it would be useless.

Therefore.

The military and the trial system are waiting.

Wait for the mage reinforcements to be mobilized from the front line by tomorrow night.

According to the commander-in-chief's request, the mage support force returning from the front line is the only squadron in the entire Third Army composed entirely of shadow mages, and as long as this 40-man shadow mage squadron arrives, it will be easy to remove Bruno's threat and keep the Crystal Hub at the same time.

In Vega's eyes, Bruno was just fighting the trapped beasts.

The Shadow Mage Squadron's reputation is something that even Vega has heard of.

This is a terrifying team that is proficient in all kinds of assassination techniques and specializes in decapitation tactics, and Vega, who is a shadow mage himself, despairs at the thought of being targeted by 40 shadow mages.

The only thing that annoys Vega is – it's Charismatic Day!

Looking at the central area of Kareni, the streets and alleys were lit up, and every civilian was smiling, but he could only take the troops with him, and he watched it with envy, and it was heartbreaking to think about it.

Goo-dong.

One of his subordinates beside him watched the civilians carrying all kinds of ingredients home, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva and asked in a low voice: "Captain, did you say that the commander will give us a half-day off tonight? Today is Divine Grace Day, and at the end of the year, I don't want to sleep on the streets and eat dry food on the New Year's Day." ”

Everyone looked at Vega in unison.

Their eyes were full of hope, but Vega said ruthlessly, "I think you should pray that next year's Grace Day can be spent at home." ”

With that, Vega took the lead.

On last year's Grace Day, he could only watch through the window as others had enough food and clothing.

This year finally took a turn for the better, and he even planned to go back to the officer's apartment to get himself a table of delicious food, but thanks to Bruno, this year's Grace Day is afraid that he will have to sleep on the streets again.

Looking up at the darkening night, Vega felt a little desolate in his heart.

"This, for you. ”

Vega was stunned, and a little girl about the same size as him suddenly came over and stuffed him with a few candies.

The little girl looked at Vega with innocent eyes and said, "Little brother, are you a soldier? My father is also an Imperial soldier, but he hasn't been back for several years, can you help me tell my father that Elena misses him?"

Vega was about to answer when a woman hurried over.

"I'm sorry, sir, for causing you trouble. ”

As she spoke, she grabbed the little girl, bowed to Vega and apologized, and then turned around to leave, during which she kept teaching the little girl a lesson, but the little girl looked back at Vega step by step, her eyes full of hope.

Vega nodded in affirmation to the little girl, and finally the little girl left with a big smile.

"Whew. ”

Vega let out a sigh of relief.

Not returning home for a few years means that the girl's father must be an ordinary soldier who has not passed the boot camp, and such a soldier, as long as the war breaks out, the chance of survival is not even 1/5.

As for whether war will break out?

It was only a matter of time, and Vega did not think that the desperate United Kingdom would not start a war.

Looking at the bustling street market, Vega could hardly imagine what it would be like if war broke out.

It's night.

When the bright moon rises and the brilliant fireworks rise into the sky, the atmosphere of Divine Grace is officially ignited.

Civilians took to the streets after dinner, singing and dancing, enjoying the joy of the New Year's Festival.

But Vega didn't have time for that.

Because he received news that in the core control area of the crystal hub, a law enforcement team was quietly gathering.
