~7 min read 1,292 words

Investigation Bureau.

Percy walked into the main entrance of the Investigation Bureau with a heavy heart.

In his heart, he had already silently made a decision—he was going to report the news of the appearance of the Lusen Bojue Lingqin to the Investigation Bureau!

If an anonymous report didn't attract enough attention, then he would report it under his real name!

"Inside the tomb of the Green Forest Earl, there must be something the Invisible Cult craves immensely... Whether it is a Magical Item or high-level knowledge, once obtained by that kind of Evil Domain organization, it will surely cause great future trouble..."

"Now is not the time to worry about myself, and besides, I am only an undercover agent... Hmm... The Bureau Chief will surely understand me."

Furthermore, that kind of Extraordinary Ability only cleans recent memories, yet it still leaves behind sequelae; if one were to peer into the depths of the soul, the resulting aftermath would only be more terrifying.

"If it is true, we must explore that place in advance!"

"So that's how it is; I was worried he had completely defected and wanted to steal the Investigation Bureau's secrets." Yagebu nodded gently.

There might even be a Non-human Level Magical Item activated in secret to prevent anyone from rescuing him or him from escaping.

Xisituosi smiled and said: "I didn't expect to encounter the tomb of Sotos as soon as I arrived. I am also very interested in the tomb of that legendary Earl!"

This method of exploring the inner heart is not unusable; for example, those Cleaners have mastered the techniques of clearing and peering into memories.

Yagebu had just opened his mouth when a knock on the door sounded.

"So short? There wasn't even time to use any methods, right? It seems our Mr. Anias confessed everything quite readily."

"Come to think of it, hmm, he didn't commit any major faults; he just wanted to protect himself. When a young man makes a mistake, even the Holy Spirit will forgive him."

On the surface, Yagebu, a director of the Investigation Bureau who had returned to Plymouth, as well as the 'Clock Holder' Kasuluo and the 'Night Witch' Fiona, were all present.

"You don't need to tell me how troublesome this matter is... Just those organizations and Extraordinaries who worship the Green Forest Earl could stir up a massive disaster."

Fiona stared at Yagebu and let out a light laugh that was slightly mocking but without malice.

"Mr. Director, the prisoner has confessed. This is the interrogation transcript!"

In his hand, he also held a golden scale.

An Investigation Bureau agent handed the document to Fiona.

At the very least, even if the Spirit of Delusion exists, this God Beyond the World has no interest in the Mortal World.

"Everything went very smoothly... a little too smoothly."

Kasuluo asked curiously: "What conspiracy of that organization did Percy confess that made you show such an expression?"

And when the other party was young, he had a nickname—'Philosopher'!

Anyone who was an enemy of the Philosopher would feel the terror of philosophy and dialectics!

"Haha... After all, there is no one else in the Bureau, so I have to be the one to make the trip, old man that I am."

Inside the office.

"Percy Anias! You are suspected of stealing Investigation Bureau secrets. I am now formally notifying you that you are under arrest!"

A gentle voice suddenly sounded in the office.

This was a big figure who was active twenty years ago; at that time, the other party had already opened the Fourth Primordial Substance.

Yagebu's expression also gradually became solemn as he continued to read down the file.

"Everything depends on the interrogation results; such evil believers are often very stubborn."

An arrest warrant stamped with a bright red seal was thrown in front of Percy.

"I need to warn you, the Spirit of Delusion is different from a completely fictional Holy Spirit. Although they do not respond to believers, this existence... perhaps truly exists."

Yagebu was slightly embarrassed as he took the interrogation record: "Hmm... Is it really the 'Invisible Cult'? I previously suspected he just made up an organization to deceive us... Believing in the Spirit of Delusion? Heh, that existence whose existence cannot be proven?"

Percy walked into the lobby of the Investigation Bureau, looking at the colleagues coming toward him under the dim lights, a look of heartfelt relief appearing on his face.

Or rather... it wasn't using an Invisible Spell, but directly tampering with the 'cognition' of the three!

"Lord Xisituosi, it is truly great that the headquarters could send you here this time."

He knew that nothing he said would be of any use.

Kasuluo tugged at his collar: "I thought there would inevitably be problems when arresting Percy; I wouldn't have been surprised even if he had instantly turned into a monster... but now, I am truly surprised."

Immediately, the expression on his face twisted slightly, and he muttered to himself: "How is this possible?"

"No need to interrogate that poor little guy anymore. I have already looked; within my 'Philosophy Labyrinth', he did not lie. He only knows this much!"

Percy had originally wanted to shout that he was an undercover agent, but his lips moved, and in the end, he still didn't make a sound.

He was just about to speak when he was suddenly tackled to the ground by two burly guards. Colorful lights flickered in the lobby, and who knows how many Talismans hit him.

It was just that Percy had only just been arrested and hadn't had time to make arrangements.

He was sitting right there, but the three Non-human combatants had not noticed him at all.

At this time, he had perhaps already climbed to the rank of the Fifth Primordial Substance!

Yagebu had very little vigilance toward such false things that were almost like the Holy Spirit.

Fiona warned in a sweet voice: "And now... the appearance of a brand-new Cult that worships Him perhaps represents a trend of some kind of revival..."

"A reviving ancient god?"

Yagebu stood up and bowed respectfully.

Immediately, his entire body was lifted up like a dead dog, put into special shackles, and taken directly to the underground prison.

Fiona and the others were surprised to find that sitting on the sofa nearby was a gentleman with graying hair, dressed appropriately, with wine-red eyes, looking like an old aristocrat.

"Aaron Sotos! The goal of the Invisible Cult is the tomb of this legendary Earl! They have already discovered clues and confirmed that the other party's tomb is in the surrounding area of Green Forest City!"

"Heh..." The corners of Fiona's mouth, painted with lipstick, curled up slightly: "That must be interesting! Although according to the laws of the Spirit Tide Awakening... the first Extraordinary from a thousand years ago might not have opened many Primordial Substances, but that Earl was simply too legendary! And... far ahead of his time. I suspect he might be the first God's Favored!"

"I..."

"What happened?"

Yagebu blurted out a piece of news.

"I..."

Yagebu grabbed his hair with both hands: "The news must be sealed off immediately! Then... catch the tail of the Invisible Cult, confirm whether the intelligence about the Lingmu is true or false and its specific location; if it is true... if it is true..."

Yagebu had originally been somewhat hesitant, but after hearing the news about the Sothoth Mausoleum, he felt he could no longer wait and already had plans to use methods such as strong truth serum on Percy.

The arrival of Xisituosi completely solved these problems; after all, the other party was a master of human nature and thought!!
