Chapter 989 Thieveries Everywhere

The very next day, an astonishing edict was released from the Imperial Palace, which was more of a wanted warrant.

According to this Imperial Edict, someone has attacked the members of the Imperial Family, which was a crime worthy of clan eradication. But strangely, the Imperial Family wasn't able to find who it was; all they knew was that his person was mysterious and very powerful.

This shocked the powers under the Imperial Family since they all knew how powerful the Imperial Family was. Yet, someone was daring enough to attack them and even managed to get away with it.

Now, any suspicious activity or personal was to be directly reported to the imperial counsel, and the palace would act directly. Anyone who reports these activities will be greatly rewarded as long as their information is correct.

If they were able to apprehend or find this mysterious person, they were promised ten slots in the ranks of the Imperial Palace Guard Regiment, which was directly under the Mortal Emperor's command, and they had to listen to no one else, even the imperial family couldn't order them.

This moved everyone, and a wild search began all over the Sky Heart Plains. Even the Imperial Palace Guard Regiment moves, and they begin to patrol the entire Mortal Sky Imperial City.

This decisive action also made many people uneasy, and no one dared to cause trouble, and they were all on their best behavior. Entry into the Imperial City was also closed off, and anyone who wanted to enter had to undergo a deep investigation and search.

Anshel, a middle-aged human, was a Golden Rank Imperial Guard, only below the Violet Golden Rank and above Silver, Bronze, and Iron Ranks. There were a total of 10,000 Imperial Guards, and only 100 among them were Golden Rank and ten Violet Golden Rank, and their authority was equal to a Kingdom's King.

After the Imperial Edict, half of the Golden Rank Imperial Guards were dispatched to protect the city, and Anshel was one of them. He was in charge of combing through the people who recently entered the city.

At this moment, Anshel was wearing a golden mask and sitting in the southern guard castle, and a Silver Rank Imperial Guard was reporting the result of a recent investigation.

"Lord Anshel, we have checked all the people who have entered the imperial city in the last thirty days except for one. This woman's name is Amanda, and she entered the city five days ago, but we didn't find any record of her leaving, nor we can find her in the imperial city. I've already checked with the four city gates and with the Space Highway Building, and we found nothing. It's like she has vanished into thin air." The Silver Guard gravely stated.

Anshel's sharp eyes narrowed as he knew every person who entered or exited the imperial city had to report their name, or they wouldn't be able to enter or exit. Because of the imperial edict, they were keeping a close eye on these people, but he didn't think he would really find this unusual incident.

"Did you check with the noble households?" He asked coldly.

"Yes, I've checked with every household and even the city market, but I didn't find her trace at all. I also acquired her picture from the Space Highway Building, and no one has seen her since she exited the building. Another strange thing is there was a small black bird on her shoulder when she arrived. Please take a look." The silver guard respectfully handed Anshel an array plate.

Anshel activates it, and a projection image of a graceful elf in a veil and a blackbird sitting on her shoulder appears.

"Issue this image to the other units. I want her found no matter what. Even if you have to flip the entire city, do it. His Majesty has ordered us to deal with any suspicious personnel by any means necessary. This woman might be associated with that degenerate who attacked the imperial family!" Anshel coldly commanded.

The Silver Guard didn't dare to tarry and quickly left to alert everyone.

At this moment, another Silver Guard entered and quickly bowed to Anshel, "I have something strange to report, milord!"

"What is it?" Anshel narrowed his eyes dangerously. Just having this one mysterious woman was enough of a blunder on their part, and if more such suspects begin to appear, he has to report this to the imperial council, and it won't be good for anyone.

"We just received a report of mass thieveries in different kingdoms!" The guard hastily stated.

"What do you mean mass thieveries?" Anshel was baffled as they weren't looking for thieves, and how big of a commotion could a thief cause?

After all, no one dared to commit theft in high-ranking officers, and even if someone were daring enough, they would only mug Independent Cultivators in weak cities.

This kind of incident was beneath the Imperial Council to handle. The only thievery incident that shook the Imperial Council was the incident in the Golden Lion Kingdom Capital when someone emptied the entire Wild Hungry Pavilion treasury and stole the fourth imperial prince and other nobles' storage rings.

The investigation bore no fruit, and before they could take further investigation, the Imperial Edict came, and now everyone was looking into this person. The investigation was agile with this matter as well.

"According to the report, someone raided the Alchemy Guild in the Flame Kingdom Capital. Not only did this person empty their herb fields, library, and treasures, but he even assassinated the Guild Head and left behind a Pentagon coin with its name, Skyfall Thief Assassin.

"Shorty after another such incident took place in the Beast Kingdom, someone raided the Spirit Eye Fox Duchess Castle and emptied the entire treasury and library. He also leaves behind a pentagon coin with a different name, the Myriad Thieving Fox.

"Lastly, within the Poison Kingdom Capital, two incidents took place at the same time in White Poison Duke Duchy and Formation Guild's branch; the thieves leave behind two pentagon coins, with the name All-Seeing Evil and All-Knowing Evil. We gathered that they all belonged to the same association!"

Anshel eyes were open wide, flabbergasted by this. Every raided location was extremely well-guarded and almost impossible to break into. Yet these thieves manage to pull it off.

Especially the thievery in the alchemy guild, Anshel knew just how high their security is and the Guild Head is a quasi-law comprehension realm expect. Yet, he was also assassinated within his own guild.

This was a really huge incident, and if they also included the Sky Bandit, then these thieves were not to be taken lightly. freew(e)bnovel.com

'Just what is going on with the Sky Heart Plains? Don't tell me it's a well-organized plan to antagonize the imperial family and challenge their authority. If we didn't find this group and let them wreak havoc unchecked, the imperial family would look weak. I thought this was just some rebel, but it seemed it was far from it, and that's why his majesty deployed us. This is really serious.'

He quickly gets up and is just about to rush to the Imperial Council when another Silver Guard quickly rushes in with a pale expression.

"What?" Anshel has a very bad feeling.

The silver guard quickly said palely, "Someone plundered the Flower Patel Demon Grand Duke's Manor a-and then set it on fire!"
