Chapter 145: The Palace

Hawkins did not find out William's memories of leaking the information.

This made him a little nervous, "It must be something missing, look for it again, look for it again." ”

He began to continue to increase the infusion of spiritual power, probing William's memories over and over again.

With this action of his, countless cracks began to appear on the outer wall of the soul space that William had been scarred by his violent breakthrough before.

But at this time, Hawkins has no time to take care of this matter, since His Majesty the Emperor has ordered to search for souls, it must be to find the final evidence, if he finds nothing here, let alone show his face in front of His Majesty, if he is just reprimanded fiercely, it will be light.

So our Mr. Hawkins is sweating profusely now, and I don't know if he's tired or scared.

Finally, William's soul space began to fall apart under Hawkins' ever-strengthening spiritual magic, and one after another fragments peeled off from above, and then turned into a puff of green smoke and disappeared.

Hawkins was also working hard at this time, and seeing the disintegration of William's soul space, he had no choice but to cast the spell again, sealing the part that had been repeatedly checked by him just now in his phantom soldier, which would become evidence that he really didn't find anything.

With that done, Hawkins let go of the palm that had been pressing on William's head.

At this time, William's whole body was curled up in a ball, feces and urine were flowing under his body, there was no light in his eyes, and his body was undoubtedly twitching.

To be honest, this is the hardest thing Hawkins has felt in all the years he has been in the industry, and he knows that William's current state is a necessary process for the dissipation of his soul, and when his soul is all astigmatized, it is the moment William dies.

Looking at William's current miserable situation, Hawkins frowned, you must know that although he was not William's direct subordinate before, he had also been on a mission with William, and he knew that he was also a very powerful guy, but he didn't expect to end up like this. With a wave of his hand, a shadow roamed over William's body, completely engulfing the dirt on his body.

"I can only do so much as a colleague. ”

Whether it's a feeling or a fake trick, at least William Carroll, who is also a surprising figure among his peers in the kingdom, now looks much more decent, and is no longer as filthy as he was just now.

"How's it going, Lord Hawkins. ”

Seeing the sweaty Hawkins walking out of the room with a somewhat vain step, several people guarding the outside of the house immediately surrounded him, and the one with the lowest rank asked cautiously.

"Go inside and clean up Lord William's body, after all, it's also from the Carol family. ”

Hawkins did not answer the question, but instead sent the man to collect William's body.

"You guys, come with me to report on your work. ”

Hawkins casually nodded a few people, and then led the way to the palace.

The few people he ordered were all smiling, obviously thinking that Hawkins was promoting them, and if they knew the truth, they would probably be scolding the street.

The Heavenly Prison Hall was very close to the Imperial Palace, and in less than five minutes, they were there.

Balmora Palace, the center of power of the Empire, the seat of the Emperor's court meeting. It has a history of thousands of years, and after the careful maintenance of the imperial family for generations, the whole palace still looks like new, and the special structure and carefully inlaid various magic circles ensure that the entire palace has been in the most suitable temperature and humidity, and can automatically repel dust.

Surprisingly, the palace was not as fortified as the Hartland Palace, or the administrative center of most of the country. This was the decision of the Founding Emperor of the Empire, who had rejected the architect's original plan for defensive measures when he was building the magnificent palace.

"If the enemy can fight here, it means that my country is finished, so what does it make if I want these defenses or not. ”

It was this sentence that made the next dozens of generations of emperors remember it, and even some extreme points even canceled some necessary defensive measures in the palace.

Regardless, the palace is one of the most fortified places in the world, so when Hawkins arrived outside the gates of this palace, it took five minutes for security checks and various briefings to take place.

When they arrived at the palace hall, the Emperor von Karnstein, the Prime Minister, Duke Matthias Ginter, the Director of Military Intelligence, Count Oliver Ruhannik, the head of the Four Gods, the Light God General Hans Frick, the Chief of the Imperial Army, Marquis Julian Brandt, the Duke of Carroll, and the Sauron family, who had just taken over the throne of the Sauron family. The Marquis of Tatarot, along with a number of other officials, was already waiting here, and the Grand Witch Priest Adam, who had completed the ritual before, was also standing in the position of the emperor's hand, as if his position was still above that of Prime Minister Matthias.

These people are all full of seriousness and momentum, which makes Hawkins, who has just come in, feel like he is on the edge of the abyss, and the sweat that has just fallen unconsciously comes out again, but he was tired before, and this time he was scared.

As his chief officer, the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, Oliver, naturally stepped forward and asked,

"Hawkins, how is the investigation, tell all the adults. ”

As he said this, his eyes glanced at Duke Carroll and Marquis Tatarot, who were standing together, but were obviously out of place, and the two had quarreled so hard in this hall that they almost made a move.

"My lord, my humble position is not strong, please punish him. ”

Hawkins fell to his knees and said in a trembling voice.

"Why? Didn't you find anything? But the Great Witch Priest said that my father's information was leaked by William's bastard. Could it be that your military intelligence is trying to protect him this time?"

As soon as Hawkins's words were finished, Tatarot, who was furious, jumped out and pointed at Hawkins and scolded him loudly.

"Who do you say is a mongrel, Marquis of Tatarot. ”

Duke Carroll also took a step forward when he heard this, but he was in front of Hawkins and exploded part of his momentum at Tatarot.

This is the momentum attack of the supreme powerhouse, how can Tatarot, who is not even in the immortal realm, be able to block it, and he was immediately squeezed and kept retreating to the rear.

To say that Grand Duke Carol is also quite skilled in controlling his own momentum, and after retreating a Tatarot, even the people standing next to him did not feel the strangeness of the meaning, obviously all the pressure was on poor Tatarot.

"That's enough, both, pay attention to who you are, this is Balmora Palace. ”

Matthias, the Prime Minister of the Empire, shouted angrily, he didn't even know that this was the first time he had shouted angrily today.

And looking at the rivalry between his own courtiers below, His Majesty Karnstein felt a kind of agitation in his heart, how could he not see that both Carol and Tatarot were practicing in front of him, they were just trying to win his sympathy, especially Tatarot, the Sauron family, who had lost the protection of the Dark God, could only rely on him as an emperor now.

The current generation of Emperor Karnstein is already the most emotional emperor recognized by everyone in the past four or five generations, so as a courtier, he often plays some tricks in front of him, but this time period is obviously not a good time to play tricks.

Although he had not said a word, the ugly expression was already a silent gesture.

Coupled with Matthias's angry shouting, the two in the dispute also died down again.

"This Detective Hawkins is not quick to tell you the clues you have found. ”

Seeing that the two cannons were quiet, Matthias turned his head to look at the somewhat reckless Hawkins, and said angrily.

It's no wonder that Hawkins didn't say it all, there are too many executives here, which makes him a little nervous, and it is true that he didn't find anything, so he can only retreat and advance first, who would have thought that the atmosphere in the hall was so tense.

"Yes, the lowly has just conducted a soul search for Lord William... ”

Hawkins began to report to everyone in the hall about what had just happened, and the whole process was in an objective and neutral tone, at this time he did not dare, nor could he have any personal color.

It was also the first time he had reported to so many high-ranking officials, but it was completely different from what he had imagined.

After finally finishing the story, he hurriedly summoned his phantom soldier and showed the remnant soul of William sealed in it to everyone.

Duke Carol, who was already reddened in his eyes, was already in tears at this time, after all, this was also the son who had been with him for decades, although he was pushed out as a target, but it still made him sad that the white-haired man sent the black-haired man like this.

After listening to Hawkins's words, everyone was a little strange, it is said that since the Great Witch Festival has been clearly indicated from the will of the world, then William is naturally the source of the intelligence leak, but why has he not found any memories of his collaboration with the enemy.

"Great Witch Festival, what the hell is going on?"

Grand Duke Carol wiped away the tears from his face and wrote in the direction of the Great Witch Sacrifice.

William was eventually ordered by the Emperor to search for his soul and be executed, essentially because of the situation reported by the Great Witch Priest, but by this time Archduke Carol had begun to question him publicly.

Adam also wanted to know what was going on, but he couldn't say it directly, so he had to continue to maintain his sense of mystery and said dismissively,

"Duke Carol, I'm sorry for the loss of your son, but please don't question what I've seen, the will of the plane is not something a small character like mine can control. ”

Seeing that Carol was about to continue to ask questions, Oliver hurriedly interrupted,

"Duke Carroll, please believe that we will enforce the law impartially. ”

Then he turned to the emperor again, bowed his head and said.

"Your Majesty, since you have any questions about this soul search, I request that the Lord of the Mind be summoned to access William's soul fragments. ”

The heart will be the first person in the Empire's soul realm, and Oliver's proposal is not abrupt.
