Within White River Town, the Rakshasa followed the thick ck smoke and quickly located the target.


    It was a young man wearing exquisite armor.


    Around the young man, two columns of soldiers, totaling around twenty, followed.


    "Could he be the spy of the Monster Overlord?"


    The Rakshasa pondered.


    He couldn''t be certain; bearing heavy karma didn''t necessarily mean one was a spy for the monster power.


    Yet, he could be sure that there was a big problem with this person.


    Should he act and eradicate the evil?


    "When in doubt, hold steady."


    He recalled the Lord''s words.


    He couldn''t act recklessly in the situation where the man''s identity was not certain. After all, they were inside the Great War Zone, and he represented Tianyuan Territory.


    So...


    The Rakshasa sought out the local patrol brigade. The patrol brigade was responsible for the security of the entire region, including matters of a monster spy.


    Furthermore, the patrol brigade possessed the means to check if someone was disguised by a Thousand-faces, although such methods could not be used on arge scale.


    ...


    In the patrol brigade''s base, a ce inessible to outsiders and the core of the base, there were various advanced devices, Miracle Buildings.


    Through blood extraction, Soul Verification, and multipleyers of the Light of Purification, it was possible to discern if someone was in disguise.


    Before long, the results of the inspection were out.


    "Commander, this person is not a Thousand-faces."


    Themander of the patrol brigade, a Pioneer of the Legendary Realm called ''Wan Qitang'', wasn''t surprised by this oue.


    If the Thousand-faces were so easy to identify, their patrol brigade wouldn''t be so troubled and even fearful of them.


    Even as a powerful being of the Legendary Realm, sometimes he would wonder if someone in his own patrol brigade had been reced by a Thousand-faces, or if a Thousand-faces was hiding right beside him.


    He had even avoided sleeptely, immersing himself in cultivation, afraid of idents.


    If they were like this, how could a ''new recruit'' who had only been in Baihe Town for a few hours possibly uncover a Thousand-faces?


    "I just hope these new soldiers don''t cause us any trouble, even if some of them are of the Legendary Realm, but..."


    But each of them was a newly advanced Legendary, with little experience in leading troops or handling cases. Asking for their assistance in dealing with the Thousand-faces was nothing short of adding to the chaos!


    Themander of the patrol brigade didn''t understand why the higher-ups had issued such a foolish order.


    Had they forgotten the cmity unleashed by the Thousand-faces years ago?


    "Anyhow, keep a close eye on these new soldiers, don''t let them cause any trouble; grant their requests as long as they''re not too unreasonable. I will ask someone to see if we can get some reliable reinforcements from the war zone," said the brigademander, and then he turned to his deputy, "By the way, who was the new soldier who sent the man for inspection? From which territory is he?"


    The deputy replied, "The new soldier is called ''Rakshasa''. He doesn''t have any publicly knownbat achievements, but he performed excellently during the previous training camp''s assessment. He is said to be one of the best among this training camp''s Legendary Realm individuals.


    "However, this Rakshasa is not from a top-tier territory; he''s from Tianyuan Territory."


    "Tianyuan Territory?"


    The patrol brigademander mused for a moment, "Besides the verification for a Thousand-faces, take the young man through the interrogation process for suspects."


    After all, he was one of the best new recruits from the training camp and hailed from Tianyuan Territory.


    It might not be long before this Rakshasa''s status in the war zone rivaled his own.


    The patrol brigademander didn''t think such an interrogation would yield any results, but if theypleted the whole process, he assumed Rakshasa wouldn''t make any more unreasonable requests.


    The deputy quickly ryed the instructions.


    The patrol brigademander continued his duty, keeping watch and pondering the matter of the Thousand-faces.


    Before long, the deputy approached, "Boss, the young man''s interrogation isplete."


    "What young man?"


    Themander nked for half a second before remembering the young man Rakshasa had requested to be interrogated.


    It was just an interrogation. There was no need for the deputy to make a special trip for such a trivial matter, right?


    Could it be...


    As if he realized something, the patrol brigademander''s expression turned subtly strange, "Is there a problem with that young man?"


    The deputy said, "A big problem indeed; he actually is a spy from the Shen Yao Empire. We found evidence after our search that at least three supply transport incidents are connected to this Shen Yao spy. Actually, there might be more. This isn''t something we can handle on our own; we have to report this to the base."


    Caught in silence, the patrol brigademander reflected.


    There really was a problem.


    A Shen Yao espionage agent deeply undercover.


    The harm this Shen Yao spy could inflict was in no way inferior to a Thousand-faces!


    "How did he manage to find this spy?"n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    The patrol brigademander was baffled. He shook his head, "Inform Rakshasa of the oue."


    ...


    Upon receiving the oue, Rakshasa was neither pleased nor upset.


    The deputy said, "Lord Rakshasa, I will report back now. If you have any further needs, you can contact me at any time."


    Rakshasa replied, "Then help me investigate a second suspect."


    The deputy: "???"


    What did you say.


    Soon, the life-doubting deputy took another suspect into custody.


    They repeated the previous process, activating the Enchantment and verifying whether the suspect was disguised as a Thousand-faces.


    The result was quickly confirmed, still not one.


    Following the regr procedure, the deputy interrogated this suspect, conducted a Heart Asking, and the result...


    "Another one with problems?"


    The deputy was agape as he heard the oue, "This person has embezzled a substantial amount of public funds, even causing a Guardian Camp to be overrun by the Monster Tide? How dare he! He truly deserves to die!"


    Not long after, the patrol brigademander also received the news, mirroring the deputy''s wide-eyed expression.
