MTL - Necromancers Are Frantically Stationing Troops In the Apocalypse

Chapter 342, Do you have a grudge?

 The inspection envoy opened his mouth and asked the first question directly.

 Silla Rose, who was sitting on the other side, paused slightly and replied expressionlessly, "No!"

 The middle-aged man continued to ask: "Have you ever sold the association's internal information?"

Sheilagui replied, "No!"

 “Have you ever done anything that damages the reputation of the association?”

 This problem is actually quite broad.

Wu Heng glanced at Xila Gui to see how she would answer.

 “No!” Sheilagui replied again.

 Shuashuashua~!

 Following Sheila Gui’s answer, the two investigators standing behind began to record.

 Although I don’t know what I’m writing, I can hear the sound of writing.

 Through this period of contact, I also have a general understanding of Sheila Gui’s character.

He is a person with a relatively sense of justice, unlike Wu Heng who joined the association in order to have a legitimate identity.

 She has a kind of heroic image in adventurers' deeds.

 Furthermore, they also pay more attention to formal justice and take the rules of the association more seriously.

"Did you falsely report your merits when you were promoted to deputy deacon?" the middle-aged man spoke again.

Wu Heng frowned slightly.

 According to the dwarf Ohlin, there were only three questions asked in total.

 But now there’s a fourth one.

Moreover, it has nothing to do with pirates anymore, before asking about what happened before becoming an archdeacon.

Wu Heng glanced at ‘Imiro’ and saw that there was no change in the other person and he didn’t speak.

 Although it is the fourth question, it does ask about things in the association.

 Under everyone's gaze, Sheila Gui spoke calmly again, "No."

 End of four questions.

 The middle-aged man picked up a handkerchief and put it on the head of the clay sculpture. The handkerchief hung down to block his eyes.

Hand waved to indicate that ‘Silla Rose’ had finished the inspection and could leave her seat.

 Sheila Gui’s face still had no expression.

 Standed up from the chair and walked aside silently.

 Middle-aged man fell into the side effects of strange objects.

 There are 4 questions in total, which means he will be speechless for 4 minutes.

 The room fell into a brief silence.

Wu Heng and Xila Gui’s eyes met, and Xila Gui shook her head slightly.

 …

 4 minutes over.

The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and said, "Deputy Wu Heng, sit over here."

Wu Heng stood up, walked to the opposite side and sat down.

Xila Gui sat down on the chair in front of Wu Heng and looked like she was accompanying him.

Imiro didn't say much and acquiesced to her staying.

 “Are you ready?” the middle-aged man asked.

Wu Heng glanced at Xila Gui and nodded.

 “Look into the eyes of the clay sculpture.” The middle-aged man said, and then picked up the handkerchief on the head of the clay sculpture.

The moment he saw the eyes of the clay sculpture, Wu Heng felt a spiritual force hitting his mind.

 But it was only at the moment when he rushed forward that he was blocked by a barrier and isolated from the sea of ​​his own spiritual consciousness.

 But you can still feel the constant impact.

 My own specialty [Strengthening Will] has taken effect.

 Strengthening Will is a power that is unlocked when one takes the Big Head Corpse Core.

 According to the introduction, it is to establish a will barrier to prevent and dismantle the negative effects that infringe on the individual's will.

 It seems that the ability effect of clay sculpture is also a negative effect of personal will.

Looking straight as usual, he glanced at the middle-aged man opposite him from the corner of his eye. He looked calm and didn't seem to notice anything.

 Then, the middle-aged supervisory envoy began to ask: "Do you have any connection with pirates?"

Wu Heng was silent for a moment, confirming that he was indeed not affected, and felt more relaxed.

 According to the dull expression of ‘Sheila Gui’ before, she replied calmly, “No!”

“Have you ever sold association information to outside parties?”

"No!"

 “Have you ever done anything that damages the reputation of the association?”

"No!"

The middle-aged man frowned subconsciously, then quickly relaxed his brows, and continued to ask: "Have you made any false claims about your merits when you became deputy deacon?"

 Sure enough, the same problem as Shila Rose.

 “No!” Wu Heng replied.

　　Not to mention that I am answering by myself now, even if I am really controlled by strange objects, I have never falsely reported my merits.

 They are all merit earned by apprehending wanted criminals.

Although most of them rely on modern weapons to kill enemies, it doesn’t matter what they use, and the association does not stipulate that designated weapons must be used to kill people.

Wu Heng felt a little relaxed.

Had I known that there was no threat to me, I wouldn’t have been so worried just now.

 After answering the four questions, wait for the other party to finish questioning.

 Get yourself out of here.

 The middle-aged man picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He did not choose to end it and spoke again, "You are from Yeke Kingdom. Have you ever done any illegal necromancy experiments?"

Wu Heng's heart tightened. This issue had exceeded the scope of the association.

 Control your expression and prevent your pupils from changing. Wu Heng still replied calmly, "No!"

No?

 The middle-aged man's brows began to frown visibly.

 Even looked at the other person’s eyes to see if they were meeting the clay sculpture.

 How can a necromancer, sitting in the position of deputy deacon of the association at such a young age, be so abiding by the rules?

How can this be.

 Thinking in his mind, he asked again, "Have you done anything that goes against the association's guidelines?"

　　grass~!

Wu Heng cursed in his heart.

 This question is too broad.

　　The field envoy, even the deacon ‘Imiro’, dare not say that he acted in full compliance with the guidelines.

 This person has enmity against himself?

Trying to get yourself to give incriminating answers?

Wu Heng just wanted to answer ‘no’.

Xilagui stood up directly, covered the eyes of the clay sculpture, and said: "The special envoy of the inspection knows Wu Heng? Why is the question so targeted?"

 Interrogation terminated.

 “Woooo~!”

The middle-aged special inspector fell into a state of aphasia. He suddenly stood up, his eyes widened, and he couldn't open his mouth.

 But his eyes were staring and his face was red, showing that he was very angry.

 The two investigators standing behind were still recording things.

 Has no intention of speaking or intervening.

"What are you doing?" Imiro said with a hint of scolding, and then said: "The inspection of you two is over. Apologize to Mr. Kalema."

 Hilagui bowed and apologized, "I'm sorry, Special Envoy of Inspector Kalema."

 The middle-aged man is still a little angry.

Imiro said directly: "Okay, you two go down. There will be some changes in the association staff recently, and you will take turns to be in charge of the association."

 “Yes.” The two of them saluted and walked out directly.

 …

 Hurry away for a distance.

Wu Heng said: "Thank you!"

　　Although I was not affected by the effect of the strange object, I was still quite touched that Sheila Gui helped me.

 He immediately covered Qiwu's eyes with a clean and neat movement.

"Thank you for what we agreed." Sheila Gui said and continued to ask: "Do you know the special inspection envoy?"

"never seen it!"

 “Then why does he ask you so many questions?” Sheela asked.

Wu Heng is also a little strange about this.

 I also doubt the other party’s purpose.

 The way he asked the questions was obviously to get him to reveal some crimes.

“What will happen if we fail this inspection today?” Wu Heng asked.

Sheila Gui thought for a moment and said, "I will probably be investigated, but I will definitely be suspended for a period of time."

 Suspension….

Wu Heng’s brows were still furrowed.

Sheila Gui smiled and said: "No matter what, we have passed the test, which is a good thing."

"Indeed." Wu Heng thought for a moment and said, "I'll invite you to the tavern for lunch, as a way of thanking you for helping me out."

 “Um…, that’s okay, let’s celebrate that we passed the inspection.”

 …

 6 minutes over.

 The Inspectorate Envoy recovers from aphasia.

His face was still a little red, and he said seriously: "Deacon Imiro, members of the association must cooperate with the inspection, and interrupting and interfering are not in compliance with the rules."

Imiro glanced at the other party and said: "I will punish the two of them. Inspector Kalema can rest assured about this."

"Penalty? Interference in inspection, this is a serious violation of regulations." The man still said.

Imiro turned to him and said: "The special envoy's questions cannot involve personal life and secrets, otherwise the person being inspected has the right to refuse to answer. You don't know this, right?"

  The man's eyes narrowed slightly, "Do you think there is something wrong with what I asked? Don't forget, it was you and the association who applied for an internal investigation."

 The investigator has already recorded it. If there are any problems, we can ask the higher-ups to review it.

“Hmph!” The man snorted coldly and continued: “Tomorrow I will check the member files and have them prepared in advance.”

"Can!"

　　The man put away the clay sculpture and left the study directly.

 The two investigators also closed their notebooks, bowed and left.

 …

 Public room.

A variety of sumptuous meals were brought out and placed in front of the two of them.

Sheila Gui asked: "Just eat a little, you don't need to order so much."

“It’s a rare treat for you, please eat more.” Wu Heng said politely and continued: “The effect of that strange object is quite special, and it is similar to me asking for corpses.”

Xilagui said: "This kind of strange object belongs to the auxiliary category and is of little use in actual combat."

“Indeed, telling the truth on the battlefield is useless!”

"That's not what I mean. This kind of strange object does not control your body, but allows you to answer your true thoughts. If you don't want to, you can easily crack it without looking at the eyes of the clay sculpture, or by covering your eyes." Xila Gui. said.

"Right!"

“It’s the association’s arrangement, otherwise this rare item would be difficult to use on ordinary team members.”
