Chapter 957 Finding the Pirate King Grandpa
Sila was also anxious: "Sariel, calm down. Although Da Chun and I went to the desert, it's been several days. Let Gabriel find out the details."

Gabriel asked, "Sir, could you tell me the specifics?"

The agent said, "We are only responsible for treating you. The specific details will be handed over to the Imperial Special Department. Now, please set off."

Gabriel asked in surprise, "Which special department?"

"You will know when you go."

Gabriel became agitated: "Why does this have to be me?"

The spy said in a deep voice, "As a sage, one should enjoy the privileges of the empire while also fulfilling its responsibilities. Moreover, the Oak Sage's inability to awaken for so many days is extremely dangerous, and the empire certainly cannot stand idly by."

Gabriel was utterly furious: "Boss, this isn't some kind of crystal core, it's clearly a suicide bomb and a surveillance device installed on me! Besides, aren't there plenty of nobles who only enjoy privileges and don't fulfill their responsibilities? This is clearly taking advantage of my vulnerability and controlling me!"

Michael said in a deep voice, "Although we already knew that the Emperor was targeting us Sages, we never expected that someone like Gabriel, who was waiting to be resurrected, would be so thoroughly controlled."

Sariel sighed, "Our leader was transformed into a death angel while waiting for his resurrection. Now that Raphael and I are not in the city, we are actually safe for the time being."

Michael said, "Raziel should also be careful. Andariel has its eye on Raziel, and Andariel is very likely the Emperor's faction."

Uriel sighed, "Am I the one being controlled by Andariel? I'm the one who needs to be careful."

Sila sighed, "Uriel has been temporarily controlled by me, the guardian deity of the merchant guild of unknown origin."

Michael sighed deeply: "Gabriel, let's investigate according to the agent's plan."

……

Over the next few hours, Gabriel was transported and traveled to the Golden Throne, where he entered a special court.

Gabriel was shocked: "Isn't this the place where Xiaomei is being tried? Have I committed a crime?"

Metatron exclaimed in astonishment, "This is indeed the place! You're about to meet the judge who is the Emperor's avatar."

The next moment, Gabriel was pushed into a hollow white hall with only one chair.

The judge, whose face was obscured, appeared calmly in the chair: "Oak Sage, you have arrived."

Gabriel calmed himself down and asked clearly, "Sir, why am I in court? It makes me feel like I've committed a crime."

The judge said calmly, "You have indeed committed a crime."

Gabriel panicked: "Where is it?"

With a wave of his hand, the judge projected a stack of photocopies of medication lists into the hall, each word as large as a window, making them difficult to read.

Gabriel was still confused: "What is this?"

The judge said in a deep voice, "According to the report, while Da Chun, the prisoner number 0016, was serving his sentence in Oak City, you gave him an excessive dose of drugs, several times the recommended amount, and also attempted to destroy the drug usage list. This constitutes a serious medical crime and a job-related crime. Especially the job-related crime, it is hard to believe that you are qualified to be a wise judge."

The chat group erupted in an uproar: "It's all for Da Chun?"

Gabriel was even more incredulous: "How is this possible! I did it so discreetly, I even destroyed the records, could it be that Head Nurse Nabuchuanxi is working for the Emperor? Is she the one who reported me?"

Metatron panicked: "Gabriel, calm down! You have to do what I did, absolutely do not confess. If you confess, it's all over. You have to fight to the death!"

Michael said in a deep voice, "That's right, we absolutely cannot confess!"

The judge asked in a deep voice, "Do you plead guilty?"

Gabriel panicked: "No, no, no, it's impossible! I don't confess! I came here to accept a mission, not to confess!"

The judge said, "Since you plead not guilty, the trial for this medical malpractice case will be adjourned. Let's talk about your current task first."

With a wave of his hand, the images of documents in the hall disappeared, and the scene changed to an aerial view of a desert ruin—the ruins of War Angel City!
The scene changes again; the ruins suddenly transform into a swirling fog, within which an airship appears and disappears.

Gabriel was stunned: "What is this?"

The judge explained, "This is the wind elemental plane beyond the ruins. This airship is the office of the Emperor's servant, the wind god Fhogal. Fhogal was defeated a few days ago by the released 0016, Dachun. Normally, Fhogal's soul would return to the airship to await resurrection. But until today, he hasn't resurrected, and the airship has even gone out of control. Your mission is to find this airship and investigate what's going on!"

Gabriel was dumbfounded: "This is the elemental realm, how am I supposed to get in?"

The judge said, "Your ability is that of a dream angel, who can enter from the dream dimension."

Gabriel asked clearly, "How do I enter the dream dimension?"

The judge said, "Whether human, demon, or elemental creature, as long as they have intelligence and can sleep, they will dream. As long as they can dream, they can enter. Moreover, your mission is only to investigate, not to fight. Dream Angel is a relatively safe method of investigation."

Gabriel was furious: "Damn it, my safety! I've been swallowed for six days!"

Michael said, "Calm down, let's ask for more information about Faucilo first..."

Gabriel had no choice but to calm himself down: "My lord, this is clearly a desert. Why would the Wind God place his airship here? What I mean is, only by understanding this layout can I figure out who his enemy is."

The judge said, "The desert may seem to have no value to humans. But for the Wind God, it is a source of power. It is where he cultivates. At the same time, during the apocalyptic war a thousand years ago, a large number of remnants of gods and demons wandered here, and the Wind God also needed to monitor and suppress them here."

Gabriel asked, "So, the reason the airship went out of control is that after Faugalo's defeat, he no longer had the power to suppress the remnant souls here, and the remnant souls took the opportunity to seize the airship?"

The judge clapped his hands: "A very reasonable speculation, but it needs to be investigated. I will arrange for someone to accompany you."

Head Lady-in-Waiting Libnashi appeared: "Greetings, Your Honor!"

The chat group erupted in astonishment: "It's her again!!"

The judge said, "She went there a few days ago and knows the situation there fairly well. When you activate the Dream Angel skill during sleep, she will protect you."

Michael got excited: "Gabriel, seize the opportunity! With this powerful head maid around, you too can have a great opportunity like Sira!"

Gabriel was speechless: "The sand demons and aggregate sand demons there were all wiped out by Sira in one fell swoop. What would be left for me if I went there?"

Sila said irritably, "Can't you be a little more flexible and go to another city?"

Gabriel then asked the judge, "Your Honor, are there any time and location restrictions for my mission? After all, the Wind Elemental Realm is so vast, there's no guarantee that this airship will remain in the ruins of War Angel City forever, is there?"

The judge said, "You can decide for yourself as long as it meets the requirements of your investigation."

Gabriel suddenly wanted to laugh: "Is it really that free?"

The judge said in a deep voice, "Freedom in the desert is nothing more than being imprisoned by the heavens and earth. I hope you can complete the task quickly."

"Then I'll prepare the supplies for the desert and set off."

Leaving the courtroom, Gabriel let out a long sigh: "I always felt that this Emperor's clone didn't really expect me to find out anything, but rather wanted to drive me away from Oak City. Just like he did with Sariel Raphael Little Mei."

Michael said in a deep voice, "But it's also our opportunity. The area outside the city is where the emperor's power is absent..."

...6 a.m.

Da Chun was awakened by the notification sound from Ai Lian's magic mirror.

“Honey, it’s dinnertime now, and a law enforcement officer is looking for me.”

A law enforcement officer? An NPC? Or one of the Ten Elders?
Da Chun instantly woke up from his drowsiness: "Can you handle this?"

Eileen smiled and asked, "Can I handle this?"

Da Chun thought that his goal was to have the entire process managed by the game company, so he could go home and spend time with Xiao Qin and Xiao Fan or do something else. No matter how worried he was, he had to get Ai Lian to take this step. Besides, Shi Lao knew that I was possessed by a group of Andariel succubi, Biliana succubi, so even if I didn't act like a player, it wouldn't be a problem.

Da Chun instructed, "Just deal with it according to your understanding."

Eileen laughed: "Okay! Then I'll do my best."

The Magic Mirror communication was interrupted.

Da Chun glanced at the large room in the equipment room; Tifa was still fast asleep. Come to think of it, from rescuing her from the Dragon's Rest Temple, to rescuing the Dragon Mother outside the Silver Third Ring, to defeating the Sea God and taking over Evil Spirit Island, to her research on machine souls and bank machine docking—it seems she hasn't slept much these past few days.
As for me, I had gotten so used to her strength as the city's most beautiful woman that I hadn't really paid attention to her at all.

Da Chun felt an indescribable sense of guilt. In any case, he would continue to watch over her as she slept.

Looking at the siren's reflection on the water, it's starting to get dark outside the island, and the mermaid is beginning to study her radiant demonic mountain of flesh again. Very good, very peaceful.

I'm switching to my alternate account. The village siege on my alternate account is very noisy and chaotic. But as long as Zhou Qing doesn't send me a text message, it's probably nothing serious.

Then I looked at the long list of system messages, all saying that the vines and roots had absorbed the "essence of volcanic life." Great, they've gotten their fill.

Da Chun should hurry up and wash up and prepare breakfast...

……

The Prison of the Gods.

After taking a two-hour nap to replenish her energy, Raziel arrived early outside Da Chun's prison to wait. From outside the prison, she could clearly see that Da Chun was lying down asleep and offline.

This time period is morning in the Chinese region, and most normal players are unlikely to wake up.

It's 6 o'clock sharp, time for dinner.

Da Chun went online and got up right on time.

Raziel chuckled. Just like the surveillance footage of Da Chun during his imprisonment in various cities, meals were always on time. Players weren't that punctual, and imprisoned players were even less likely to be so bored as to eat on time; it could only be that his succubus was possessing him.

Sariel grew anxious: "Boss, this is a succubus! Are we really going to release him to find the Pirate King? Sira took Samuel's artifacts, two sets of artifacts plus a fused godhead, and still couldn't shake his number one position. Just how powerful is the succubus he possesses?"

Raziel sighed, "That means when I go in later, I'll be talking to a succubus, not a player. There might still be an opportunity, right?"

Michael said in a deep voice, "Raziel is right. The key now is for me to take over Evil Spirit Island. Besides, this is the realm of gods, so we're not afraid of what the succubi can do. Moreover, if the succubi really do something, it will only make Da Chun's crimes more serious, and he will have even less freedom."

Raziel: "Then let's go in."

So he rang the doorbell and gave the enforcer's cover name: "I am Palame, the enforcer of justice from the divine realm. I have a case to inquire about."

Then I saw Da Chun looking completely bewildered and lost. Was this a sign of succubus possession?

Raziel gave the succubus a dozen seconds to adjust: "I'm in."

Da Chun chuckled and said, "Come in."

Raziel stepped forward with his head held high, perfectly embodying the demeanor of an NPC enforcer.

Raziel glanced at the simple meal on the table, which consisted of only a piece of coarse bread and a glass of water, and decided to use this as a starting point: "Actually, as long as you can make some contributions, you can get better food."

The game can't simulate the taste of food. If the other player is a human, food is all nonsense and not even a goal. But if it's a succubus NPC who craves pleasure, then it will definitely have an effect.

Da Chun was indeed concerned: "I also want to improve things, but being locked up like this every day, I have no chance to contribute."

Raziel, worried about Da Chun's return, got straight to the point: "A pirate died and entered the realm of gods. He might be the first pirate king. I have some historical cases that I need to ask him. Find him."

As long as everything is done under the pretext of investigating a case, Raziel can bypass prison surveillance and do his own work.

Da Chun was astonished: "You are the law enforcement officer of the divine realm. Do you need my help to find someone?"

Raziel sighed, “Please get this straight. It’s not that I need your help, but that you need me to give you the opportunity to contribute.”

Da Chun laughed and said, "Does that mean I can leave prison and go out for a walk?"

"Yes!"

Da Chun laughed and said, "If the other party is a pirate king, I can find him! But I can't find him otherwise."

Raziel was genuinely surprised: "Then I'll bail you out."

The chat group erupted in chaos!
Sariel said bitterly, "This Da Chun actually knows a pirate king! No wonder he developed so quickly after being exiled!"

Sila was taken aback: "It's hard to imagine what method he would use to find it?"

Raziel said, "Of course, it's because his succubus knows him; succubi must have the technical means."

Sariel was even more furious: "As long as the succubus dares to use technological means in the realm of the gods, it should be considered a demon attacking the realm of the gods, and she can be sentenced to a more severe punishment!"

Sila laughed: "As expected of Sariel, you're so naughty, I love it!"

At this moment, Raziel led Dachun out of the prison gate.

Raziel asked impatiently, "How will you find it?"

Da Chun asked, "Is it permissible to shout? Is there a crime against making noise in the realm of gods?"

Raziel was taken aback: "You called him by his name directly?"

Da Chun laughed: "That's so rude! I'll just call you by your name."

Raziel was stunned: "That's it?"

"That's it!"

Raziel was speechless: "Then shout it out."

Da Chun coughed once and shouted directly down the street, "Grandpa Aziza, it's me, Da Chun, who's come to see you!"
