Warhammer in a box

Chapter 253: The human brain is not good, but the priest's brain is good
Under the order of Todd Brig, the heads of various administrative departments and military officers came into the hall.

Wasmer was also among them. As the highest legal official in Middenheim, although there was no expression on his face, he was extremely solemn in his heart.

No matter how well they hid, the Black Purple Hand suffered heavy losses within the organization after such a thorough investigation.

Fortunately, the internal system allowed them to maintain a single line of communication. Many ordinary teachers and middle-level managers were arrested, but the leading cultists remained safe.

Wasmail tried to get information from non-cult officials who were related to him, but no one was willing to answer him. Everyone kept their mouths shut for fear of being implicated.

This time you can't get away with it just by relying on your identity.

The Chosen One of Ulric shows no mercy in killing demons, and he also does not shrink from killing humans.

Wasmer didn't ask anything and came here with a nervous mood.

The senior officials of Middenheim looked at each other, and it was obvious that no one was in the know.

Wasmael glanced at the crowd and saw a familiar man, Eric Karazbed.

Wasmael knew that Eric, as a senior official of the Internal Affairs Department, could easily access a large amount of money, so many years ago, Wasmael secretly developed Eric into the head of the treasury sequence.

But Wasmael knew him, but he didn't know Wasmael.

Within a year, the persons in charge of each line of the Black Purple Hand will meet twice.

They all hid their identities from each other.

"Everyone, the reason I asked you to come here this time is to confirm the identities of some people."

Todd Brig told the crowd that all the people here were senior executives and he had worked with them for many years.

Then the photos were placed on the table, and the officials walked past them one by one.

Gerhardt and Ragnar were both standing aside, waiting for the officials' answers and also observing the expressions of each of them.

Walking in the front were the generals and some high-ranking knights of the White Wolf Church.

This group of people reacted most directly. They immediately identified some familiar faces when they saw them.

The angry expressions on their faces did not seem to be fake. The main reason was that Tzeentch did not like to corrupt such people.

The army has always been a place where Khorne believers grow and develop, but after the Scarlet Skulls were eradicated, even if a few small fish and shrimps survived, they are no longer a concern.

The team soon arrived at the administrative officer's place.

These officials in charge of government affairs were completely different from the generals. Some of them had fear on their faces, while others were calm.

"Eric, this man seems to be one of your subordinates. Why would he encourage merchants in the Chamber of Commerce to refuse to pay taxes?"

Todd Bullinger looked at Eric in front of him and asked seriously.

"Lord Elector, if he really colluded with the cult, it has absolutely nothing to do with me. I have dedicated so many years to Midden County. Please believe me! You can't link me with the cult just because of this incident!"

Eric said this sternly and righteously, and judging from his expression, outsiders would really think he was a good person.

But the divine symbol in Gerhardt's hand continued to respond.

After all, Tzeentch's followers have their own methods, and the effect of the divine talisman is that at this time, they only know that there are cultists in the crowd, but they cannot tell who has the problem.

But Gerhardt, with his many years of experience as an inquisitor, knew that there was definitely something wrong with the Internal Affairs official in front of him. Todd Brig strongly and in an unyielding tone asked Eric to tell him the whereabouts of these people immediately, but Eric said he couldn't find them. These people had disappeared for two days, and he was also very confused.

Gerhardt stared at Eric, then walked aside without saying a word and spoke to Hodges.

"If you go to his office, he who is in charge of money will definitely keep accounts. But if he needs to provide funds to the cult with a large amount of money without anyone noticing and in a reasonable manner, then he must make a set of false accounts that can deceive everyone. And the fake accounts have a lot to do with the person who makes them.

Some people can do it perfectly, but no matter how perfect the fake accounts are, they are still fake accounts!
Go find his account book and send it to the priests in Terra. I need them to analyze the information for me to prove that he is a cult! And let me know where all the money went!"

"Yes, Master Gerhardt."

The demon hunters in various parts of the city acted very quickly. While Eric was still explaining, the demon hunters rushed into his office and forcibly checked the account books despite the obstruction of other officials.

While checking, the information will be synchronized back to the priest for quick analysis.

The massive amount of account books, which were enough to take several senior officials or accountants ten or twenty days to check and still fail to find out, were quickly revealed under the analysis of the technical priest.

At this moment, Todd Brig, who could not prove that there was anything wrong with Eric, was about to let him go when a big hand grabbed his shoulder.

"Your Excellency the Elector, please wait a moment. I have some questions to ask!"

Looking at the confident Gerhardt, Todd Brig stepped aside.

"Who are you? Even the Elector has agreed to let me go. Why are you still stopping me?"

Eric said unhappily.

Gerhardt directly placed the divine symbol in his hand and pointed it at Eric.

Gerhardt then began to ask Eric about the loopholes analyzed by the priest one by one.

At first, Eric could still use some excuses to cover up the small loopholes, but as Gerhardt gradually told him about the bigger loopholes in the accounts one after another, beads of sweat began to flow from Eric's forehead.

"Nonsense! You are talking nonsense! You made up all these stories!"

"Nonsense? I just found these account books in your office!"

"Lord Elector! Did you hear that? Just now, the account books in my office were piled high enough to form two people. How could they have finished reading the account books just after they found them?"

As if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, Eric shouted a little hoarsely.

"Ordinary people can't do that, but priests can! You don't have to struggle anymore, no matter if you are a cultist or not! With the huge amount of gold coins you embezzled, you are doomed!"

Gerhardt's words seemed to push Eric into a desperate situation.

"Eric! Did you embezzle all these gold coins? You deserve to die!"

Todd Brig was extremely angry at this time. The embezzled gold coins were enough for him to form another order of knights!
Todd Brig's temper was so bad that he was about to grab Eric, but a flame suddenly burst out from Eric's body and attacked him.

Faced with the sudden chaos fire, Todd Brig almost couldn't dodge it, fortunately Gerhardt pulled him in time!
"This world belongs to the Lord of Change! All of you who stand in our way must die!"

Eric saw that he could no longer hide it, so he simply revealed his purpose.

A dark purple hand began to appear around his neck.

"Eric, you are actually a cultist!" Todd Brig shouted.

Eric is just a civilian, it turns out he can't use magic at all!
