Chapter 451 Translation
The man named Ahjun Singh brought Sofia into the city.
The city was called Moorlos, and Sofia was unaware of the meaning behind the name.
But it doesn't matter anymore; at least she escaped the clutches of evil.
In Sofia's past impressions, the Far East was always advanced.
Whether in art or technology, it always leads the way in the west of the windless sea.
But once she stepped into Moorelo, Sophia realized that she had made a mistake in her judgment.
The city was completely different from what Sofia had imagined.
The city layout was unplanned, the crowds were chaotic and disorderly, the markets were noisy and bustling, and the streets were dirty and smelly.
It's hard to believe that this is the Far East!
But Sofia quickly accepted it.
The advanced one was not the Far East continent, but the Federation.
Other countries in the Far East continent may still be very primitive.
If that's the case, the Federation will one day annex the entire Far East continent.
Of course, this is just one account.
If the Federation deems war worthwhile, then the unification of this continent is not far off.
They provided Sofia with lodging, but the room was damp, dark, and very cramped.
But compared to other houses in the city, this is probably considered good.
They also restricted Sofia's movement, only providing her with food on a regular schedule.
Although they claimed it was to protect and care for Sofia, in reality, it was imprisonment.
Ha! Sophia shook her head helplessly. I've just moved from one prison cell to another.
But at least there is no torture or mental pollution here.
If Sofia had the choice, she would rather be placed under house arrest by these people.
The cultists' babbling still lingered deep within Sofia's consciousness, causing her to occasionally have nightmares.
If she hadn't been mentally strong, she might have gone mad long ago.
But how long are they going to keep me locked up? Sofia couldn't help feeling uneasy, and I still had a mission to fulfill.
Sofia was unsure whether these people had discovered her military officer status.
There was only one thing she was very clear about: until the other party produced conclusive evidence, Sofia only claimed that she was a poor girl who had been abducted.
Those despicable heretics brought me here from my homeland.
Sofia thought this reason was pretty good, a mix of lies and truth.
So Sofia could only sit in her room, lost in thought.
Whenever she had free time, Sophia would try to practice making magic scrolls.
Although excellent materials can help to carry magic.
But in fact, scroll magic is not that demanding on materials.
Ordinary white paper can also hold magic, but up to 90% of the magic will be lost.
If parchment were used, only about 40% would be lost.
Sophia believed that products made from living things could help prevent the loss of magic.
However, without the assistance of the "Rolling Techniques" manual, Sofia could not actually make much progress; at most, she could only become more proficient.
Nevertheless, Sophia still prepared some small fireball scrolls.
Prepare to use it for self-rescue in a last resort.
Her books were first confiscated by the cult members, and after Sophia was rescued, she discovered that all the books in the cult's stronghold had been packed up and taken away by Ah Jun's men.
Therefore, the "Rolling Technique" should also be in the hands of the Swabawa people at this time.
Sofia dislikes boredom and really wants to find a handsome man to give her a brief moment of pleasure.
At this moment, she could only rely on her own fingers.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Sofia quickly pulled her hand out of her pants and pulled down her shirt.
Then he sat up straight on the bed and calmly said:
"Enter."
It wasn't mealtime, but someone knocked on the door, leading Sofia to conclude that things were about to change.
Then, the door was pushed open.
The person outside the door was none other than Ah Jun, the man who had saved Sophia.
Sofia quickly stood up: "Mr. Singh."
"Don't be nervous, Miss," Ah Jun said to Sophia in Mandarin, "How have you been lately?"
"It's all fine, but it's too stuffy staying in the room," Sofia complained.
"I'm sorry, but this is the only arrangement I can make. You may not know, but this country is currently under invasion," Ah Jun said.
Sofia was not only aware of this, but she herself was also a participant.
But she had to lie: "God help me! This is terrible."
"In the Far East, the Lord is an alien god. Both Swabawa and the Federation have their own gods, but the Federation's belief system is extremely chaotic, while the Swabawa's gods are purer."
Ah Jun said, "However, I won't force you to believe. And the fact that you didn't reveal the name of that evil god means that the cultists didn't succeed."
Sofia nodded: "They almost succeeded, sir. I must thank you again for your rescue."
"It was just a small favor," Ah Jun said. "I've been assigned to investigate several cases within the country, and I also have another matter to attend to, so I have to do my best. Please forgive me."
Sofia nodded: "May your God bless you."
"Well, enough of the small talk, Miss. I've come to ask you some questions," Ah Jun said.
Sofia nodded, then remained silent, waiting for Ah Jun to ask his question.
"You are the victim in this case, but I cannot confirm your true identity, so I cannot let you go for the time being," Ah Jun said. "However, if you can help me, I may be able to give you some power, such as allowing you to move freely in the city."
Does this equate to broadening the scope of imprisonment?
But Sofia couldn't ask for more at this moment.
She should be thankful she wasn't immediately labeled a spy.
It's also fortunate that Sophia isn't a member of the Federation, otherwise she wouldn't even have had such an opportunity.
"It would be my pleasure, sir," Sophia nodded immediately.
Ah Jun smiled slightly and nodded, saying:
"Very good, come with me."
Then, Sofia was led out of the room.
Sophia followed Ah Jun to a basement in the city, only to discover that it was actually a hidden dungeon.
The firelight flickered in the brazier in the cell, barely illuminating the entire cell.
Sofia was able to see clearly that the place was filled with all sorts of torture instruments.
Deep inside the prison cell, three people were bound.
Judging from the numerous whip marks on their bodies, these people must have been tortured for a long time.
At this moment, Ah Jun said:
"I called you here so you could help me listen and see if they are speaking the kingdom's dialect. If so, please translate for me."
Kingdom dialect?
Despite her confusion, Sofia nodded.
Following Ah Jun's signal, the interrogator splashed cold water on the three prisoners to wake them up.
Then, Sofia heard their weak shouts.
Upon hearing this, Sofia frowned:
"They weren't speaking the royal language, much less, but—"
"But?" Ah Jun pressed.
"It seems to be Bingyu."
In the theater troupe that Sofia used to be in, one of the members was a person from the frozen continent.
He asked Sofia to shout in his native language while in bed, so Sofia learned a little bit of the Italian language.
"Oh?" Ah Jun narrowed his eyes. "So you understand?"
"A little bit."
"Then you translate, what are they saying?"
Sofia nodded and listened attentively.
He then said, "They said, 'Why are you keeping hitting us? If you want to interrogate us, then go ahead and ask!'"
Ah Jun grinned: "If we can't communicate in the language, how can we ask?"
Sophia immediately realized that these people were not cultists, but people from the frozen continent.
But why were these people arrested and brought here?
Sofia asked, "Sir, who are they?"
"They were behaving strangely and asking people about things that were alarming, so I arrested and interrogated them," Ah Jun said. "And I want you to help me find out their motives."
Sofia then translated the sentence to the three glacial people.
After hearing this, they immediately confessed:
"For the materials! The water of the Spring of the Dead! That's why we came to the Far East."
After that, Sofia acted as the translator between the two sides.
"What do you want the water from the Spring of the Dead for?"
"We don't know, we'll just follow orders."
"Whose orders should we take?"
"Our elders, the elders of the central community!"
