"36 high-ranking officials? They'd be better off called 36 scumbags." Suk's eyes flashed with astonishing killing intent; he couldn't find peace of mind without killing these people.
The intelligence reports indicate that the "Asadi Empire" church has grown to encompass hundreds of thousands of planets across the entire galaxy over thousands of years, with countless followers. It is rotten to the core from top to bottom, with countless sins occurring every day. The 36 high-ranking members are merely the ones who hold the highest positions and control everything from behind the scenes.
"Virtual Universe Company is putting me on trial this time?" A strange and dangerous expression appeared on Suk's face, and he had already made up his mind.
He then looked at the message on the screen: The highest leader of the entire "Asadi Empire" church is Larenz, a first-level Realm Lord. He broke through to the Realm Lord level tens of thousands of years ago and later established a new church in the Asadi Kingdom.
Then there was Emperor Ares, the original supreme ruler of the Asadi Empire, a Domain Lord level 8.
Aurora, a saintess of the church, a seventh-rank domain lord, and the daughter of Larenz.
After that, the remaining high-ranking officials ranged from Domain Lord level to Universe level.
However, in Suk's eyes, they were all dead.
"Allah, calculate the fastest route for capturing and trying these 36 people. I don't want to waste time." Suk's eyes flashed with icy killing intent. "Yes," Allah said. "Based on intelligence data, 12 people on the list are on the capital planet of the Asadi Empire, 2 are on Nanxun Star, and 6..."
The person is on the arrest and punishment list, following the route below... and the order of the list provided in this intelligence document is exactly the same.
"It seems the intelligence department is still useful." Suk nodded. "We'll follow this route when we set off."
Eloi later learned about Suk's situation.
"A top-scoring mission?" Eloi asked in surprise, then offered a suggestion. "Then I'll have someone accompany you," Eloi said, a little worried about Suk's safety.
"Okay." Suk did not refuse Eloi's kindness.
As a member of the Heavenly Secret Realm, his guard team was utterly inadequate, not even worthy of being used as decoration.
Immediately afterwards, the "Azure Refining Marquis," one of the two immortal gods who were still visiting the Su family manor, was entrusted by Eloi to set off with five world lords from Eloi's guard and Suk.
The Asadi Empire is considered one of the most powerful nations among the hundreds of early-stage civilizations in the "Goma Starfield," because it has a first-level World Lord powerhouse supporting it. Even if it's only a first-level World Lord, it's still a World Lord! And there are fewer than a hundred World Lords in the entire "Goma Starfield," each of whom is a hegemon.
Therefore, even if other forces are aware of what is happening in the Asadi Empire, they will turn a blind eye and pretend they didn't see it as long as it doesn't affect them.
As the church system grew increasingly unchecked and acted recklessly, it began to slip out of the control of the realm lord behind it. Some fanatical believers caused considerable chaos in many other civilized countries. Through layers of reporting and investigation, the matter finally attracted the attention of the Virtual Universe Company.
Three months later.
Asadi Empire's capital star.
The capital city has 32 cities. In the central square of the capital, there stands an extremely magnificent and towering white statue, 10,000 meters high. It is a man in a white robe whose face is not clearly visible, looking down on the world like a god.
The square, spanning hundreds of square kilometers, was packed with people. Countless believers dressed in white robes knelt there to pray, and a devout and fanatical atmosphere permeated the entire square. Looking at their eyes, which were either devout or frenzied, it was clear that they would not hesitate to die for their gods.
Next to the square were a series of luxurious palaces, the residences of high-ranking church officials and royalty, heavily guarded.
"Are the offerings ready for this batch?" Atop a white obelisk, a blue-eyed priest in a golden robe, exuding an air of authority, asked his attendants.
The attendant hurriedly replied, "Everything is ready, sir. The offerings are all carefully selected from various planets, and they are all of the highest quality." Anyone who didn't know better would think he was talking about selecting ingredients.
"Yes, the next festival is about to begin. I hope this year's offerings will please the adults," the priest smiled.
Each festival is a celebration within the imperial elite.
Even the "sacrifices" were mostly given voluntarily.
The majority of the fanatical people, blinded by delusion, were unaware of the dark and bloody reality behind the solemn and sacred ceremony they perceived.
At this moment, a dark purple, ancient sword-shaped spaceship had arrived in the planet's atmosphere without anyone noticing, and the planet's defense system had not detected its presence at all.
Inside the central control room, a young man in a black battle suit with white hair stood there, his deep red eyes watching the images of the capital square projected on the screen.
"Qinglianhou" and five realm lords stood behind Su Ke, but this time they would not take the initiative to attack, because this was Su Ke's mission alone. He could only fight by himself and no one else was allowed to help him unless Su Ke was in danger.
"Three months have passed, and there are currently 16 people on the list on the Imperial Capital Star. However, according to the latest intelligence, they are about to hold a church festival, which is very important to them. As is customary, all the church's high-ranking officials will participate in the festival. If nothing unexpected happens, all 36 targets will be concentrated on the Imperial Capital Star," Su Ke said calmly.
This was good news for him, as he could capture all the mission targets without much effort. So he immediately changed his original plan and prepared to wait quietly, hoping to catch them in the act.
Another 42 days have passed.
During this period, Suk continuously obtained more new intelligence information from the intelligence department, and at the same time, he personally went to the Imperial Capital Star to conduct secret observations. Through these observations, he gained a deeper understanding of the corruption and decadence within the Asadi Empire. Not only were the high-ranking officials deeply involved, but even the middle and lower ranks were affected.
"It's rotten to the core." Suk already understood that even executing all thirty-six high-ranking officials wouldn't save it, unless the entire church was uprooted and the entire Asadi Empire was thoroughly and brutally cleansed and reformed.
This massive project was clearly beyond the capacity of Suk to complete alone; it had to be entrusted to the Virtual Universe Company.
"Qinglian Hou" and the five realm lords also stayed by Su Ke's side, and they all felt that Su Ke's aura was getting colder and colder. "Qinglian Hou felt that he should remind this young genius not to let him be affected by these dark aspects."
"Mr. Suk seems very angry? Is it because of these ordinary people?" Walking down the bustling street, "Qinglianhou" asked.
From the outside, apart from the fact that there are more people wearing church robes, this place is not much different from other ordinary planetary cities.
"I'm just a little uncomfortable." Suk sighed. No matter what, as long as he is human and has a normal mind, he will feel extremely disgusted and uncomfortable when he sees these evils.
"Actually... this kind of thing is very common in our human territory," said "Qinglianhou".
Su Ke frowned as he looked at "Qinglian Hou". "So common?"
"The human race has an endless population and an immeasurably vast territory. There are outstanding elites, and naturally, there are also degenerate scum," 'Lord Qinglian' said softly. "As long as they don't openly and blatantly challenge the rules of the human race, or even cross the line, who will step in to stop and punish them?"
"This world is ultimately a world of the strong."
"For example, countless races have become slaves. Mr. Suk should know that slaves are not protected by law. Even among human races, there is almost no protection for slaves. Whether it is torturing slaves, selling slaves, or killing slaves, it is very difficult to get official punishment. This is the reality." 'Qinglianhou' sighed softly.
Suk remained silent.
In a sense, aren't the people of the dozens of planets in the entire Asadi Empire slaves to the higher-ups, and slaves ruled in a spiritual sense? From birth, they are brainwashed and their faith in the church is taken for granted, turning them into toys to amuse the higher-ups. This rule has lasted for millions of years and is deeply rooted. If no one stops it, it may continue generation after generation.
