It was still the same armed jacket, black one-piece leather uniform and boots, and the graceful and powerful figure.
The skin is still as white as the snow in winter ice cliff, and the black braids are as good as yesterday, but the pure blue eyes are full of fatigue and sorrow.
Inquisitioner Angelica, Soshyan almost forgot the man and the place he was going to.
It was not until she appeared in front of him again that he suddenly recalled the encounter at that time.
Everything seems to be yesterday.
Soshiyang issued an order to clear the command room, and when there were only two people left, he finally said something.
"How are you?"
Angelica looked at him, suddenly laughed, and walked staggering to the table full of maps and documents, leaning her hips against the edge of the table.
"At least still alive."
"Well."
Soshiyang didn't know what to say for a moment. In fact, he had a lot of things to say, but in the end he chose the one he thought was the stupidest.
"You don't look like you've changed at all."
Angelica's current appearance almost completely coincides with what Soshiyan recalls. There is almost no difference except that she lacks the arms, her hair ends look dry and messy, and her face is a little haggard.
The judge blinked and then smiled:
"yes."
It was not until then that Soshiyang's mind turned around, and he suddenly remembered something.
The last time he saw Angelica was thirty years ago!
Seeing Soshyan's shocked face, Angelica sighed and said.
"You finally found out."
"you....."
The judge is also a mortal. Even if he has a life-extended surgery, the traces of time will inevitably appear on them, unless he uses certain taboo powers.
But Soshiyan did not feel the aura of witchcraft from Angelica, so the other person's appearance has not changed at all for thirty years, which is very strange.
"Remember that conversation between us?"
Soshiyang nodded.
"You have to perform a secret mission, and the mission is located in the Amydodon galaxy."
Angelica sighed softly.
"Captain Soshyan, are you always so formal?"
“Yes, always--”
Suddenly, Soshiyan realized that such a conversation seemed to have happened.
He finally understood what the other party was referring to.
"If you still need our assistance at that time, my team and I will consider responding to your call."
This is what Soshiyan said at that time.
But he didn't plan to agree now, because Angelica's appearance seemed too weird. He clearly remembered that Angelica said at that time that several judges participated in this mission.
"Judge Angelica, what happened to you in the past thirty years?"
Angelica did not answer, but looked around.
"Do you have anything to drink here? I'm a little thirsty."
Soshiyang then called a servant and asked the other party to get a pot of red wine, a pot of clear water and sporadic fruits. These were all collected by the nobles of the Nest City, and now they are all under the control of Soshiyang.
Angelica first drank some water, then drank half a cup of the red wine with the fruit.
"Thirty years, this is the first time I have rehydrated it in thirty years."
"this--"
Putting down the wine glass, Angelica's face finally regained a little gloss.
"I'm surprised right? Actually, things are not complicated. My colleagues and I came here to find an ancient ruin, which is related to a huge green-skinned empire in the past... Do you know that Amydodon had another name in the past, called Ulano."
Soshiyan blinked, no more expressions.
Seeing his calm appearance, Angelica was surprised.
"You don't seem to be surprised?"
"No, I was surprised, but it was no different for me, after all, I'm not a historian."
"But you must have heard the story that happened in Ulano?"
"certainly."
"This was once the heart of the largest green-skinned empire in the galaxy. The emperor personally led a large army to smash it and tear it apart the empire. But after the great rebellion, the green-skinned revived here twice, trying to rebuild their empire."
"They can't succeed."
"Yes, but have you ever thought about it? What magic does this place have that attracts the greens to pounce on it again and again, and rise here?"
Soshiyang shook his head.
"This is not something I should consider."
"You can't let the third party know what I say next... A judge found out from an ancient manuscript that after suppressing Ulano's green skin, the emperor sent the imperial guards to secretly look for something on the planet, but he didn't get anything."
"Um?"
Sosh raised his eyebrows, which surprised him very much, because logically, the biggest secret of this planet was the tomb secretly built by Horus for the eleventh legion, but this one was obviously built after the war.
If so, what is the emperor looking for?
So he asked quietly.
"What do you think that is?"
"We speculate that it is something closely related to the Emperor's great cause, and may even involve some supreme power in the subspace, otherwise the Emperor would never mobilize a large number of troops."
"You decided to act on just one manuscript?"
"Of course not. We spent years investigating the planet and sneaking into the oldest family on the planet to explore their secrets... Finally, we rely on a large number of pieces of clues to find a temple ruin three thousand meters underground, and found a map of a mysterious maze in it. We spent another two years deciphering the map and finally determining its location."
"What afterwards? Have you found that maze?"
Angelica took a deep breath, as if she didn't want to recall that scene.
"There is no maze at all, it's not a maze... it's a trap."
"trap?"
"For some reason, there was a sudden area on the upper level of the maze, full of deadly traps and ancient combat robots. Our minions and comrades were constantly injured and killed, and I was also mistakenly trapped in a static force field in the chaos."
"So that's it, you've been in the static force field for thirty years."
"Yes, my life should have been frozen like this, but not long ago, due to some external interference and disorder of the static force field, I gained ten seconds of freedom, so I immediately activated the emergency transmission beacon on my body. Fortunately, the terminal equipment was not damaged, but when I appeared, I found that the entire nest was occupied by green skin, so I could only hide and wait for the opportunity to escape."
“Why is there an extra area?”
"I don't know, at the last moment before the teleportation, I saw a human-shaped statue behind the wall of the static force field. The sculpture also held a red weapon that looked like a spear but not a spear, and a halberd but not a halberd-"
If Angelica hadn't lie, then the weapon she saw was probably the relic left by the eleventh Legion's Primaries - Burning Tian.
Although she was surprised that Soshyan was suddenly so excited, she answered his question.
"According to the map, that place should be 3,000-5,000 meters underground in Hades. Last time we entered it from the crypt passage at the bottom of Hades' nest."
