Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 346 Confidentiality Agreement

The Nine-Headed Serpent was quickly rendered delirious by the frying oil, its eyes filled with terror, and its arrogant arrogance was completely extinguished.

"You can't even handle one illusion? I've prepared plenty of other illusory hells for you, and you've already given up after just the first one."

Wang Teng shook his head. France truly lived up to its reputation as a world that did not cultivate willpower; even the bishops of the Black Vatican were no better than this.

One day, if I get the chance, I'll grab Salang and boil her alive, and see if that woman can withstand it. After all, she's the one who's in the limelight the most.

"Alright, everyone, we can begin the interrogation, Chief?"

Wang Teng had no intention of interrogating him. Jiu Ying was no match for Salang's madness and preferred to hide, so it was hard to say how much value he would have.

The Black Vatican's structure seems to have always been a single-line connection, so uncovering some low-level henchmen shouldn't be a problem. As for more, that depends on the interrogation methods.

This guy seems to be in cahoots with the siren...

"Leave the illusion~ We have a special interrogation department. Now that we've confirmed the other party's identity, we naturally have to extract all the useful information!" Pang Lai said in a cold tone.

He would show no mercy to the Black Vatican, for that would be a desecration of the innocent souls who had died.

Wang Teng then dispelled the illusion, and everyone came to their senses to find that they were still sitting quietly in their seats in the small conference room.

The only change was in Jiuying; its face was ferocious, and its skin was wrinkled, as if it had been blown up by something.

One of the three vice-chairmen immediately came up behind Jiuying, grabbed his head, and cast a dark spell.

A mark quickly formed and was imprinted on the forehead of the Nine-Headed Serpent.

"My super-powerful energy can seal off the opponent's mental world and their connection to magic when they have no resistance." The vice-chairman, who was casting the spell, glanced at Wang Teng and explained this to the new councilor.

Other council members knew about his ability; in the past, most high-ranking criminals had been sealed away by him using magic.

Now that the matter has been resolved, everyone feels as if they have walked a tightrope, with a cardinal from the Black Vatican infiltrating the council of court mages.

This is tantamount to having a random, destructive spell installed next to you; you could die inexplicably at any time.

"Old Pang, this matter must be taken seriously. All the forces involved, if they are colluding, should be dealt with as crimes against humanity."

"If needed, I can send someone to assist you with your work. Lately, some people seem to be getting increasingly out of line," Hua Jun said, glancing at Pang Lai.

With his discerning eye, he naturally knew about those sordid things. Bai Xu's ability to become the Southern Guardian was inseparable from the support of powerful forces behind him.

Even if the other party is unaware, there are certain bottom lines that need to be crossed and there will be consequences.

"I'll handle it!" Pang Lai nodded seriously.

Hua Jun nodded in response, then turned his attention to Wang Teng, who had started the incident and deserved credit for it.

"Wang Teng, you've done a great job this time. Is there anything you want in return?"

Everyone looked at Wang Teng, and many councilors even instinctively flinched, as the methods he had just used were truly appalling.

Bai Xu, the Southern Guardian, was among the strongest members of the council, yet he couldn't even put up a fight.

Only at this moment did they truly realize just how powerful someone was who could single-handedly kill a peak-level Great Monarch demon.

Moreover, it's mind magic, a type of magic that has always been primarily functional and supportive. I never imagined it would have such a terrifying side.

"I have some questions about cultivation. It would be great if the commander could give me some guidance if he had the time."

Wang Teng smiled easily. He probably didn't need any resources; what he really needed were some insights. The knowledge he had accumulated at Pearl Academy had only reached the advanced stage.

Even if he constantly deduces, deepens, and evolves various magical skills and characteristics, it is still based on having laws to follow.

As for the knowledge of forbidden spells, that seemed to be top secret information, and he had no basis for reasoning before he broke through the forbidden spells.

After breaking the forbidden spell, he was able to deduce the knowledge he needed using the properties of the stars, and thus no longer needed these insights.

"Hahaha... Okay, I certainly have time now, and even if I didn't, I would still make time for it."

Hua Jun laughed heartily. It was truly commendable that the opponent, even with his current strength, still maintained this spirit of pursuing the demonic path.

"I must still record your merits, and I will add another contribution value based on the information provided by Jiuying later."

Chief Executive Pomlay stroked his beard, a rare smile appearing on his face. The councilor had made a significant contribution, so the contribution value had to be realized.

This is the system of the Palace Mage Order. You can choose not to participate, but the system cannot be disregarded, so contribution points must be awarded.

"Alright, everyone needs to keep today's events a secret for now. We'll make the announcement after we've caught those hidden rats."

"Otherwise, we might alert the enemy!"

"As is customary, everyone needs to sign a confidentiality agreement!"

Pang Lai took out an agreement from a filing cabinet and had each of the assembled members sign their names in turn.

Soon everyone had signed, and the matter in the small conference room was basically over. The follow-up work will be handled by a dedicated department.

They just need to wait for the results. Even if someone is arrested, it won't be these members of parliament who will do it. It will most likely be the Supreme Court that will lead the arrest operation.

After all, it involves cardinals of the Black Vatican, and who knows how many people and forces will be drawn in.

A brief meeting here today could lead to bloodshed in the outside world afterward!

After the members of Congress left the small conference room, Wang Teng and Hua Junshou remained, and many people cast envious glances their way.

The opportunity to consult a forbidden spell master on your own is rare, and whether the master is willing to share is another matter entirely.

After all, this involves one's valuable personal spiritual practice experience.

After staying in the small conference room for an extra half hour, Wang Teng walked out satisfied, having obtained the knowledge he wanted from Hua Junshou.

Leng Qing, who had been waiting outside, immediately asked Wang Teng as soon as he came out, "Your office and congressman's villa have been arranged. Shall we go take a look?"

"Of course I'll take a look—let's start with the office."

The two went upstairs, where the councilors' offices were located. Basically, every serving councilor has a private office.

Leng Qing quickly led him to an empty office, which was quite large and roughly divided into three areas.

One is the main office area, which is Wang Teng's office area; another is the data area, which is also the head of the guards' office area; and finally, there is a rest area, where there are two sofas and a round table.

There are also small decorative details such as water heaters, snack shelves, and landscape fences.

Wang Teng arrived at his office area, sat in the comfortable boss's chair, and skillfully turned on his computer.

He quickly logged into the internal network of the Palace Mage Corps using his real name and saw a lot of information that he couldn't normally see.
