1589 Incense Ash

When he heard that he was the future hope of necromancy, Ji Xiaobo was instantly filled with endless motivation. He gritted his teeth and looked like he was going to fight till his death.

“Good! I will settle this within one day! Brother Fang, don’t worry. Even if I don’t sleep, even if I need to keep taking pills, I complete all of it in one day!”

“Good!”

Fang Heng quickly did an estimate in his head. Time was still too tight. He only had two days.

He needed to get the incense ash immediately, and then deal with Viona as soon as possible!

…

Inside the Necromancer Association, in a secluded corner in the east, there was a single five-story building.

The Central Federation’s investigation team had just entered the building two days ago to conduct a special investigation into the recent disappearance of the holy artifact in the Necromancer Association.

“An entire container?!”

In the investigation team’s office, when everyone heard the news, they wondered if they had heard it wrongly.

Someone had taken something from the fallen corridor and even packed it into a container before leaving the Necromancer Association!

Didn’t anyone from the Necromancer Association stop them?

If it was during normal times, this kind of thing would already be very ridiculous. It just so happened that this was a critical period and then the holy artifact was stolen.

Could it be related to the disappearance of the holy artifact?

Could it be that the holy artifact was stolen during transportation?

The Central Federation’s investigation team was still investigating here and someone openly transported things outside?

Did he really think they were just for show?

The incident immediately caught the attention of the investigation team.

“It’s Tan Shuo, a player trained by the Eastern District Federation. We’ve just conducted a round of questioning on him, and this is the result.”

Tan Shuo received a joint inquiry from the superior investigation team and the Eastern District Federation, so he didn’t hide anything and confessed that it was Fang Heng.

As for what was in the container, he did not know about it.

Han Dongming, the leader of the investigation team, flipped through the report. Suddenly, his brows twitched.

He heard Fang Heng’s name in the report.

At the same time, Han Dongming’s heart was filled with doubts.

Fang Heng?

Wasn’t that guy trapped in Punoze?

Why would he appear here?

This time, the Central Federation’s investigation team had also entered the Necromancer Association to conduct an internal investigation.

The Holy Court had been very close to the Central Federation in recent years. Their high-level contacts were extremely close, and they even had in-depth cooperation projects.

Han Dongming came from the Central Federation. This time, he had brought along two special missions from his superiors.

He wanted to help the Holy Court find the Saintess.

When he saw Fang Heng’s name on the investigation report, Han Dongming’s interest was piqued.

The Holy Court had always been suspicious of Fang Heng. After all, the investigation before the Saintess disappeared was directed at Fang Heng.

However, during the time when the Saintess went missing, Fang Heng happened to be trapped in Punoze’s Frost Hell. In addition, feudal lord Dani and the others were used as scapegoats to attract the attention of the Holy Court, so the investigation of the Holy Court against Fang Heng was temporarily put on hold.

Han Dongming raised his guard.

“Fang Heng might be related to the theft! Find a way to find him immediately and control him. We need to interrogate him alone!”

The room was silent for a moment.

“Ahem.”

On the side, a senior investigator, Old Chen, who was over fifty years old, coughed lightly. He raised his head and suggested in a low voice, “Leader, do we need to be more cautious?”

Han Dongming frowned and looked at Old Chen.

Old Chen was transferred over from the Eastern District Federation, so he knew more about the Eastern District.

“Why?”

“You might not know this, but Fang Heng has a close relationship with the North District Federation. Moreover, the Minister had previously informed us that Fang Heng’s identity is special, so we shouldn’t touch him easily…”

Han Dongming frowned.

“If we arrest him without evidence, I’m afraid it will cause a big backlash.”

“Then invite him to assist in the investigation.”

Without waiting for the others to raise any objections, Han Dongming stood up and said, “This investigation is an independent investigation by the Central Federation regarding the disappearance of supplies. No matter who is behind Fang Heng, as long as he is indeed a suspect, we have the right to invite him to assist in the investigation. I don’t care who is behind Fang Heng, as long as he violates federal law and does something that goes against the interests of the Federation, he must be punished!”

The room was quiet for a moment.

“What are you waiting for? Get to work!”

“Yes, sir!”

…

Night fell.

The sky had completely darkened.

After Fang Heng logged out of the game, he rushed back to the Necromancer Association and prepared to use the trading area in the hall of the dead to exchange his points for blue incense ash.

He should be able to get his hands on things related to necromancy at the Necromancer Association.

Let the professionals handle it.

Knowing that Fang Heng needed to buy materials, the cashier revealed an apologetic expression.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Fang Heng. The blue ash you need is a rare item and has been listed as an A-level Federation military resource reserve. The Necromancer Association only provides one kilogram of it to the public every month. If you need it, please leave your identification information and make an appointment in advance. We will start the lottery at the beginning of the month after the verification is completed. If you succeed, you can exchange up to 50 grams of ash.”

So troublesome?

Fang Heng felt a headache when he heard about the complicated procedures.

Next month! There was no time at all!

Moreover, he wanted a lot of incense ash.

Even if he obtained 1 kg, it would still be far from enough.

Forget it, he might as well ask Old Black and Starfish Company and buy from them.

But in this way, time was delayed.

Fang Heng pondered.

According to Ji Xiaobo, the incense ashes had been temporarily detained by the Central Federation as evidence of the theft.

It would be the fastest way to start from there.

He had to think of a way to try again.

Yes, go find Li Qingran and think of a way to get her to help get some incense ash.

Fang Heng made up his mind. He turned around and was about to leave when he saw two tall and burly players walking straight toward him.

“Fang Heng.”

The two of them stood in front of Fang Heng and blocked his way. They looked serious and unsmiling.

“Please come with us.”

Fang Heng looked at the two of them and frowned. He asked, “Who are you?”

A foreigner with short blond hair walked out from the crowd and said, “Mr. Fang Heng, we are a special investigation team established by the Federation Central Investigation Board. We are responsible for investigating the theft of the Necromancer Association’s holy artifact. I am the deputy leader of the investigation team, Tabares. Please come with us and cooperate with the investigation.”

As they spoke, more than a dozen people walked out from the crowd in the hall of the dead and surrounded Fang Heng from all directions, vaguely locking him in the center.

Fang Heng looked at the people around him and frowned.

He was surrounded.

From the moment he entered the Necromancer Association, these people had been hiding in the hall, waiting for him.

He had been in a hurry to exchange for supplies, so although he had noticed something out of the norm along the way, he did not take it to heart.

He was too careless.

“No need. I have something on, so it’s not convenient for me to be investigated.”
