719: 169.
The Female Director’s Gift (7000)
Looking at the broken tiles and ruins before him, Fang Ze activated the Void Eye, carefully observing and recalling the attack from earlier, and then he was shocked.
His shock stemmed from the fact that this was the Parliament Building of Xida State, the center of power for the entire state.
The building materials used here were undoubtedly the best in all of Xida State.
Just from the shattered fragments mixed with Law Prohibition orders, it was evident how luxurious the materials were.
Yet, despite the sturdiness of such a building, combined with the Magic Ban effects of the Law Prohibition orders, it couldn’t withstand even a single strike from He Weidao?
Recalling He Weidao’s movement from the void to reality, Fang Ze concluded that if he wasn’t mistaken, that strike likely didn’t come from reality, but from the Spirit Realm.
In other words, He Weidao’s palm strike, which penetrated the spatial barrier from the Spirit Realm, directly shattered a heavily fortified room in the Parliament Building.
At that moment, Fang Ze gained a deeper understanding of He Weidao’s strength: definitely above Mortality-Shedding, but how much above was unclear.
‘He, the dignified Chairperson, isn’t a mere clerical figure but rather a formidable master?
This is too illogical!’
Fang Ze felt unsettled all over.
Just as Fang Ze was lost in wild thoughts, the smoke and dust in the reception room gradually dissipated.
The female Commissioner Lan Bing carried the unconscious Councilor Wu and, along with two other grim-faced Executive Councilors, slowly walked out.
Behind them were Nan Yi and Little You, both looking visibly shaken.
As for the Black Shadow…
it was hard to tell his emotions because his face was perpetually black.
After they walked out, Lan Bing, with an expressionless face, glanced at the council members outside and slowly said, “During the investigation just now, our Security Bureau Commissioner found Councilor Wu to be a Believer of a demigod.
Confronted with this, Councilor Wu argued but, after failing to justify herself, attacked our Security Bureau Commissioner in anger.”
“Fortunately, the Chairperson intervened and suppressed her on the spot.
This incident is corroborated by the two Executive Councilors and our Security Bureau’s three Commissioners.
Anyone with doubts may inquire with them.”
“Additionally, following the Chairperson’s orders, Councilor Wu is temporarily stripped of her Executive Councilor status and handed over to the Special Service Department for identity verification.”
As she finished her words, before the council members could react, a squad of black-clothed Special Service Department personnel emerged from the void.
They nodded at the female Commissioner, then took the unconscious Councilor Wu and once again disappeared into the void.
The Security Bureau is responsible for internal special affairs, but when it comes to external matters such as a demigod spy, the Special Service Department is needed for further scrutiny and confirmation.
Watching the black-clothed personnel of the Special Service Department disappear into the void, the council members present finally started to come to their senses.
They exchanged glances, taken aback.
Initially, they had prepared to watch the Security Bureau’s spectacle.
They never expected such a twist: Councilor Wu was actually a spy?
Honestly, if He Weidao hadn’t intervened personally, at least more than half of the council members present would have suspected the Security Bureau of framing her.
She was an Executive Councilor!
One of the twelve most powerful individuals in Xida State.
And yet, a spy?
What could she possibly gain?!
Who would believe that if told?
But now, due to He Weidao’s verification and the Special Service Department taking over the investigation, the fact lay before their eyes, and the council members had no choice but to believe it.
This led to a complete shift in their thoughts: even an Executive Councilor was a demigod spy?!
That meant Dahei Jialuo’s infiltration ran very deep!
Next, they felt sympathy: sympathy for Fang Ze.
Leaving aside the enemy, Dahei Jialuo’s infiltration was truly clever.
For an Executive Councilor to be compromised, it clearly required significant effort and resources!
But don’t forget!
Now, all her plans were ruined by Fang Ze!
An Executive Councilor, four council members; such a formidable force, the fruits of Dahei Jialuo’s years of effort!
All destroyed!
If they were Dahei Jialuo, they would probably kill Fang Ze in a fit of rage, even if it meant self-destructing the descending spirit!
Moreover, Fang Ze’s special ability to penetrate demigod protection was now exposed.
Even if this ability wasn’t his, it was still controlled by him or someone under his command.
Hence, both federal aristocrats and Outer Realm demigods would pay extra attention to him.
The radical ones might even create trouble for him or attempt to assassinate him.
‘In the end, the bringer of disaster suffers the disaster themselves.’
Many council members sighed inwardly, casting sympathetic glances at Fang Ze a few times.
Fang Ze, however, didn’t mind the thoughts of these council members.
Perhaps because of his former life’s simple nationalism, after arriving in this world, no matter how his strength and status changed, he always saw himself as a human and always thought of protecting human interests.
Moreover, he wasn’t just a human, he was also a public servant.
Combating crime and upholding justice was his duty!
Even in the face of life-threatening danger, he wouldn’t hesitate!
If even public servants hesitated, what hope would this world have?
….
Thus, amidst the varying thoughts of everyone present, this internal council member investigation concluded.
However, although the internal investigation ended, the turmoil caused by the capture of an Executive Councilor and four council members had just begun to affect the Xida State Government…
…
Security Bureau, Secretary Office, Group Three.
Several female Commissioners were diligently working with their heads down.
At this moment, a round-faced, freckled female Commissioner lifted her head from her work, her eyes darting around.
She then mysteriously said to the other female Commissioners of Group Three, “Hey.
Have you heard?
Our Security Bureau has a significant new addition.”
Upon hearing the freckled female Commissioner’s words, the other female Commissioners of Group Three couldn’t help but lift their heads from their documents.
They looked at the freckled female Commissioner, their eyes blinking curiously, and asked, “A significant figure?
Who?” “Yeah?
Who is it?
So mysterious.”
Seeing she had caught her colleagues’ attention, the freckled female Commissioner smiled mysteriously and said, “Fang Ze.”
“Fang Ze?” Several female Commissioners exchanged glances, seeing confusion in each other’s eyes.
Clearly, they hadn’t heard of this name before.
