Looking at the lonely figure of kukas sitting in the chair, the silver haired woman tilted her head and observed him carefully. For a long time, after her guards had eaten enough food, she nodded in the direction of kukas, then turned and left. As for whether kukas saw it, she didn\'t care at all.

The night of the Arctic ice sheet is extremely cold. It is no exaggeration to say that it is very common to turn water into ice at night.

More than ten fire ponds were lit in the tavern. After winning the opinions of the tavern owner, some guests barbecued their own food around the fire pond.

Kukas did not join in. He still sat in his chair, looked at the ordinary people, listened to every message from their mouth, and then thought in his mind about the possible images that those messages would bring to the Empire.

Although it was night, there were still new guests in the tavern. They brought fresh meat and shoddy wine to the party and talked about what happened in the Empire. Although they are just ordinary people, there is no one in this empire to stop them from talking about things in the Empire, and no one will be punished for talking about these things. Even if what he said was reactionary and reactionary.

The tavern was very lively at night. Some girls in sparse clothes began to dance beautifully in a small open space. Like the girls kukas saw on the barren ice field, they all relied on their own flesh and body to get money.

Some people have to do this because of their poor family, while others just want to get better enjoyment and get a lot of money to show off with others.

A girl walked around to kukas and shook her waist beside him: "do you need service? Distinguished guest! It\'s very good to have a woman in your arms to accompany you through an unforgettable night."

"Go aside, I\'m thinking about things." kukas took out a small bag of money and threw it to the girl, then motioned her to distribute the bag of money to other girls, so that these girls would not disturb him. "Such a comfortable life has not been enjoyed for a long time." looking at the gray blue gloves, kukas felt very comfortable now, At least now he doesn\'t feel any danger. Looking at the things between ordinary people, he can feel that he is still alone. Or once a person.

The door of the tavern was pushed open again. This time, it was not businessmen or mercenaries who came in from the outside, but a small group of middle-aged people in noble costumes.

They quickly looked around the crowd in the tavern and finally came to kukas\'s place. Behind them, kukas saw some church priests in white robes. But he didn\'t know the symbols on the priests\' robes, so he didn\'t know which church they belonged to and what gods they believed in.

"Dear third power holder, welcome to our empire. The emperor ordered us to look for you. He arranged a banquet in the palace and prepared a grand welcome ceremony for you." a noble who looked very kind took the lead to kukas and walked forward. He said their intentions with humility and seriousness.

"I won\'t attend any banquet, and I don\'t need to prepare any welcome ceremony for me. I just come here to patrol and prevent accidents." kukas gently tapped the table in front of him and motioned the other party to sit opposite him.

"The third person in power, sir, we have prepared a residence for you. Maybe you will need it." the middle-aged nobleman was not unhappy because of kukas\'s refusal. He was ready to face any situation before he came here, so he was not interested in kukas\'s refusal.

"I want to talk to those in power in the military headquarters of this empire."

"When? Where?" the middle-aged nobleman lowered his voice and whispered, "the people in power of the military headquarters also want to talk to you. They are ready when you come."

"A house with a chair is OK. It\'s very cold at night. I don\'t think anyone wants to sit in the street and talk about things with the cold wind." kukas got up fiercely and motioned the middle-aged nobleman to show him the way. He believed that the other party must have accepted some orders from the military authorities before coming here. So he didn\'t say much polite words and went straight to the subject.

"Come with me! Lord the third in power." the middle-aged nobleman nodded and led kukas away from the tavern.

There was a small group of soldiers outside the tavern. They all smelled like professionals, and kukas smelled fresh blood on them. Obviously, these soldiers have just experienced a killing.

In addition to these soldiers, there were seven or eight large special carriages, in which there were more than a dozen priests of different churches. Their task is to assist the soldiers in defense. On their carriage, kukas saw some obvious signs of damage.

"We are the third wave to invite you. The two groups of people in front were intercepted and killed on the way." the middle-aged nobleman lowered his voice and said, "to tell you the truth, adults stay here, which has really caused us a lot of trouble."

"In fact, I\'m going to go to the people in power of the military headquarters tomorrow morning, but you\'re too anxious."

"The situation of the empire is very bad now, and the rulers of the military headquarters can\'t wait." the middle-aged nobleman pointed out to the soldiers and priests around: "not only the military headquarters, but also other power organizations can\'t wait. They all want to know your attitude."

"What attitude?" kukas asked in some doubt. He came here just to prevent unrest in the Empire. Other things have nothing to do with him.

"I\'m not too clear about this. The military authorities will tell you. What they know is clearer and correct than me." the middle-aged aristocrat hesitated a little, and finally just muttered vaguely: "but I heard it has something to do with the imperial authorities. Of course, these are my random guesses, and I don\'t know whether they are correct guesses."

"Has it anything to do with the rulers of the Empire?"

"Yes."

"Then take me now! By the way, the people in charge of the military headquarters are in a bad situation now?"

"Yes, many people want him to die. Without a large number of professionals, the power of the military headquarters has decreased countless times. Some people are not satisfied with the military headquarters, and now they are attacking them with the help of some external forces."
