It's so hard being a hero!

As Sophia watched this scene, her anger grew stronger and stronger.

Drummond was unwilling to get involved, and Samira had no intention of interfering either.

Even if she's unhappy, what can she do?

But she really couldn't stand it, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

"General Baird, what do you intend to do with these people?"

Sofia spoke up again.

These repeated questioning infuriated Baird.

"This is a military secret. Why should I tell a little girl like you?"

"confidential?"

Sofia almost laughed out of anger.

"Several hundred people massacred a town, killing so many civilians, and you're telling me this is a military secret?"

Baird's face turned completely cold.

“Little girl, I’ll say it again, this matter is within my jurisdiction, and it’s none of the business of outsiders pointing fingers at me.”

After saying that, he stopped looking at Sophia and mounted his horse.

If Drummond hadn't been there, he probably would have killed this arrogant little girl.

"Back to the fortress."

After mounting his horse, Baird waved his hand and left with his subordinates, giving Sophia no chance to ask any further questions.

Sophia stood still, her expression icy cold.

“Miss Sophia, you shouldn’t have acted so impulsively.”

Drummond said something.

"impulse?"

Sophia turned to look at him.

"Lord Drummond, can't you see? That guy doesn't want to investigate at all."

Drummond opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end he just shook his head.

“Miss Sophia, some things are not as simple as you think.”

"I know it's not simple."

Sophia took a deep breath and suppressed her anger.

"But I just can't stand it."

She turned and walked toward the camp.

Drummond stood there, watching her retreating figure, and sighed.

Chapter 61 Lilith's Power Again

Sofia barely got any rest that night.

My mind is replaying yesterday's events like a movie.

"Endure, endure, endure my ass. If you don't encounter it, you can't do anything about it. But if you do encounter it, you can't pretend you didn't see it."

Sophia already had a plan in mind.

The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, she got up.

When Drummond saw Sophia emerge from the carriage, he immediately walked over and greeted her.

"Good morning, Miss Sophia."

Sophia walked up to him and said directly, "Lord Drummond, I'm preparing to part ways with you."

Drummond's expression froze for a moment. He glanced at Sophia's eyes, which were still clearly simmering with anger, and instantly understood what she wanted to do.

"Oh! I knew it, Miss Sophia, with your temper, you would never let this go so easily."

Drummond was completely exasperated and sighed.

"Are you going to Truk Fortress?"

Sofia neither denied nor admitted it.

Drummond opened his mouth, but seeing Sophia's stubborn eyes, he swallowed back the words of advice he was about to say.

You can tell from what happened in Kyle City that this little girl is incredibly stubborn.

"Alright, since you've made up your mind, then I can only wish you a safe journey, Miss Sophia."

Sophia nodded, then wind element surged around her, preparing to fly away.

But before she took off, she looked back at Drummond one last time.

"Lord Drummond."

"Ok?"

“I know it’s difficult for you, and I don’t blame you for it, but if everyone were like you, this country would be doomed.”

Sophia said this seriously.

Upon hearing this, Drummond opened his mouth as if to say something, but Sophia had already transformed into a streak of blue light and vanished in a flash.

Her figure quickly disappeared into the horizon.

Drummond stood there, looking in that direction, speechless for a long time.

"Lord Drummond, are we really just going to abandon this?"

Samira walked over at some point and stood next to him, also looking in the direction Sophia had left.

Drummond shook his head.

"Sigh! I can't control it, I can't control it. Maybe she can."

Meanwhile, Sofia, flying in the sky, followed the direction Baird and the others had left in the day before. After flying for more than two hours, she finally saw a magnificent military fortress in the distance.

The fortress was situated right at a pass in the Nebula Mountains.

This is Truk Fortress.

Sofia landed on a small hill outside the fortress and sneaked in under the cover of the trees.

After she came in, her expression became increasingly serious.

The streets were filled with women.

They all had their heads down, their eyes darting around, as if they were afraid of something.

Everyone's face was filled with an indescribable numbness, like that of walking corpses.

That numbness was very familiar to Sofia.

In her past life, she had seen women who had been captured by demons and had finally managed to escape back in human settlements on the border of the Demon Realm; they had this same look in their eyes.

Moreover, this place was filled with an atmosphere that made her very uncomfortable; it was a mixture of desire and despair.

Sophia continued walking inside, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

As she passed by a dilapidated courtyard, she heard sounds coming from inside.

It was the sound of men's lewd laughter and women's crying.

Sophia stopped and listened for a while, then clenched her fists.

In the courtyard, a scoundrel in military uniform was pinning a young girl against the wall, doing something beastly, while another scoundrel sat on a nearby rock, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, watching the spectacle with amusement.

The girl's face was covered in tears, and she kept begging for mercy, but the two beasts acted as if they didn't hear her.

Sophia took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed the urge to rush in and chop those two people to pieces.

But this kind of thing seems to happen everywhere in this godforsaken place.

She needs to figure out what's going on in this godforsaken place first.

She stepped back a few paces, walked around to the other side of the courtyard, and came to a street that looked a little quieter.

There were fewer people on this street, and a few elderly women were sitting by the roadside, picking vegetables.

They saw Sophia emerge from the alley, their eyes lingered on her for a moment, then quickly looked away.

That look wasn't one of curiosity, but rather an expression that seemed to say: "Oh, another unlucky soul."

Sophia walked up to a woman who looked to be in her fifties.

"Excuse me, ladies, what's going on here?"

The older woman looked up at her, then lowered her head again and continued working.

"Miss, are you new here?"

Sophia paused for a moment, then quickly nodded.

"Ah, yes, yes, I just arrived."

The woman sighed and shook her head.

"What are you doing here? This is no good place. You should leave as soon as possible."

Sofia didn't respond to her question, but instead asked the question that concerned her most.

"Auntie, I just saw those soldiers bullying people."

Before she could finish speaking, the older woman suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, shaking her head at her.

"Stop talking, let's go."

The woman's eyes were filled with fear.

As Sophia looked at her wrinkled face, her suspicions became more and more real.

"Auntie, don't be afraid. I'm not an ordinary person. I'm here to investigate this matter. Please tell me what happened, and I can help you."
