Chapter 163: Chapter 82 I Found a Blind Spot (Please Subscribe)
The old man’s expression froze for a long while, until Cheng Guang grew a bit impatient. When Cheng Guang asked again, the old man finally snapped out of it.
“Princely… Princely Heir…”
The old man’s expression was stiff as he swallowed nervously, feeling inexplicably terrified about the offense he had just committed.
Cheng Guang, however, had no intention of taking him to task over it. He waved it off and asked once more.
“Old uncle, where should a Black Lantern Steward like myself go to gather personnel?”
The old man quickly stood up, bowing respectfully, “Princely Heir, just call me ‘old man’ is fine.”
“When constables from the Bureau of the Lamp go out to handle cases or carry out missions and need manpower, they usually draw from within the organization. A White Lantern Catcher can command ten Black Lantern Catchers. As for the Black Lantern Catchers who are the lowest ranked, they can only be assigned some extra-institutional members.”
“However, for you, Princely Heir, even the Gold Lantern Catchers are under your command…”
The old man promptly added, “Princely Heir, there are only three Gold Lantern Stewards in the organization at present. I’ll call them all over…”
Cheng Guang quickly shook his head, declining the old man’s kind offer, “Just assign me a few extra-institutional members.”
For Cheng Guang, he didn’t actually need powerful subordinates. If he needed someone with high Cultivation Realm, he needn’t look within the Bureau of the Lamp; he already had countless strong guards by his side.
Right now, he just needed people who could help him investigate and handle cases. Whether they were powerful or held high status was unimportant. What was important was that they could be obedient and sensible.
To perfectly go through the motions and find a perfect reason to relay the intelligence he knew to Cheng Zhihai.
Seeing Cheng Guang say this, the old man didn’t persist. He took out several sheets of paper filled with information from a drawer beneath the desk and handed them to Cheng Guang.
Cheng Guang looked at them briefly and saw they were indeed the profiles of extra-institutional personnel, with portraits, names, Cultivation Realms, and so on.
Cheng Guang noticed that even the Bureau of the Lamp’s extra-institutional members had high Cultivation Realms. The lowest among them had reached the Fourth-grade Divine Realm, stronger or no less formidable than Lin Cheng.
Lin Cheng’s status -1
The thought crossed Cheng Guang’s mind, and he couldn’t help but chuckle to himself.
The old man handed another stack of papers to Cheng Guang. This paperwork was filled with information relating to the crown prince. Naturally, if he was going to investigate the crown prince, he first needed to know all the related information.
The range of information included was extremely broad, covering everything from the crown prince’s birth to his subsequent disappearance. Not all the records were complete, or else there wouldn’t be the current state of affairs.
Cheng Guang estimated that if the crown prince’s information were more detailed, the thickness of this file would at least increase tenfold.
“Princely Heir, if you need extra-institutional members, you can just go to the Human Resources Temple to find some. These extra-institutional members still need to complete a few missions to be promoted to official members and become a Black Lantern Catcher, so they are very eager to complete missions…”
“This mission of yours, Princely Heir, looking for the crown prince, is extremely difficult. Wouldn’t you rather choose some simpler task?” the old man inquired with a hint of concern, and while speaking, he pulled out some tasks from the side, whispering, “Princely Heir, these are tasks I’ve summarized that offer a lot of merits for little trouble, which I don’t normally share with just anyone. Princely Heir, why don’t you choose from these instead?”
Upon seeing this, Cheng Guang couldn’t help but smile wryly. So you really think I’m here to accomplish tasks and elevate my own position.
If Cheng Guang truly wanted to complete tasks and ascend in rank by merit, he wouldn’t need to personally visit the Bureau of the Lamp—Cheng Zhihai would take care of everything for him.
All he would have to do is lie back and relax.
Cheng Guang politely declined the old man’s kind offer with a smile, said nothing more, and offered no explanation. He took the information and walked out of the mission hall.
After a short while, he arrived at the Human Resources Temple as the old man had mentioned.
The officials from the Bureau of the Lamp at the Human Resources Temple tensed up upon seeing Cheng Guang arrive, their every action stiffening a bit.
Once Cheng Guang handed over the personnel files to the officials of the Human Resources Temple, they hurriedly set about finding people for him.
The members of the Human Resources Temple were very efficient. Cheng Guang only waited the time it took to drink a cup of tea before the extra-institutional members assigned to him appeared before his eyes.
There were five in total.
Three men and two women.
The highest in Cultivation Realm was at the Prime God Realm, and the lowest was at the Fourth-grade Divine Realm.
When these five arrived at the Human Resources Temple, they had all thought that the one summoning them for a mission was just an ordinary Black Lantern Catcher.
But when they saw the peerless noble young master sitting quietly beside a desk, waiting for them and realized it was Cheng Guang,
They were all stupefied.
All five of them instantly became somewhat restrained, and their postures, regardless of gender, turned a bit awkward.
However, they did not dare to be disrespectful. Even though they were visibly nervous, they still came forward and greeted Cheng Guang respectfully.
“Princely Heir.”
Cheng Guang nodded in response.
“Princely Heir, may I ask what mission we are to undertake this time?” A tall and well-built man among the five cautiously inquired.
His name was Xu Hongfei, and not only was he the tallest and most well-built, but his Cultivation Realm was also the highest among them.
