Chapter 347 - Inspector Assessment

Chapter 347: Inspector Assessment

“Inspector?”

“What department is that?”

“And who is this old man?”

Su Hao fired out three questions at once.

Fortunately, there was a high-level NPC, Heavenly King Lie Kong, who immediately said, “This is Senior Long, or Old Master Long. This Dragon Nation citizen also happens to be one of the top Sprite Trainers in the City of Glow.”

“Hello, Old Master Long.”

Su Hao greeted him cutely.

Old Master Long, who was wearing a wide training suit, was very satisfied with the young junior in front of him.

He paused and said, “How about it? Do you want to become an inspector? Usually people don’t even get the chance to apply.”

Seeing that Su Hao was confused, Heavenly King Lie Kong smiled and said,

“The inspector position is a position independent of the department. Every inspector has quite a lot of power in their hands. They can mobilize the power of the arrest department, the exploration department, and other departments.

“It’s difficult to enter the four major departments, but it’s even harder to apply to become an inspector. Old Master Long is right. This is a perfect opportunity. Among the seven of you, only you and the Golden Eagle Federation’s Sun Son are qualified to apply for an intern inspector.”

“You didn’t hear wrongly. It’s just an internship. Formal inspectors are all powerful Heavenly King-tier trainers. Even if it’s to become an intern inspector, you still have to pass the assessment to qualify.”

After a pause, the Heavenly King Lie Kong continued, “Apart from holding power, the corresponding benefits of an intern inspector are also much higher than high-level arrest officers, exploration team leaders, and other positions. You can receive a generous amount of Union contribution points every month.”

After a pause, the Heavenly King Lie Kong continued, “Apart from holding power, the corresponding benefits of an Apprentice Patrol Envoy are also much higher than high-level arrest officers, exploration team leaders, and other positions. You can receive a generous amount of Union contribution points every month.”

“Besides, since the inspectors are all acting alone and not affiliated with any department, if you can become an intern inspector, you can also form a five-man team that belongs entirely to you. The others in the team will also enjoy the official establishment of the Union and receive a higher-level contribution point salary.”

“Of course, with power comes responsibility. The responsibility of an inspector isn’t small either. This position is free of trivial matters. It doesn’t conflict with your studies and part-time jobs, but sometimes, when certain departments and certain regional guilds encounter problems, they will need to send out an inspector to assist… In addition, the inspector himself also has a duty of patrolling and checking.”

In short, it was equivalent to the high-level firefighters in the Union. They usually didn’t do anything except for the big things.

Su Hao was quite satisfied with this position.

The mission was indeed not as tedious as the arrest, exploration, and command departments.

“It can give me some time to finish my university studies… After all, I’m still a second-year student.”

“And after I graduate from university, I will still have to work in the school and the laboratory. Ah ~ I’m so busy!”

Getting a position in school was Su Hao’s original plan after discussing with Senior Wu and his master.

He was a member of Whale Island University, and it was precisely because he received a large amount of resources from the school that he was able to nurture six powerful sprites in his second year of university.

In that case, it was only right to give back to the school and teach cute and unimportant juniors.

However, Su Hao wasn’t resistant to the offer.

The work of the inspector could also be separated from the work of Whale Island University, and there wouldn’t be any conflicts.

“If I have to, I can even let Butterfly work as my instructor for once. It has more experience than me.”

Su Hao felt that this idea was very feasible.

The inspector’s application was agreed immediately.

Old Master Long nodded slightly. With his hands behind his back, he turned his head and left.

…

What followed next was some procedures and paperwork.

The inspector didn’t have his own department, so naturally there wasn’t a senior inspector to lead a newbie like him. Instead, he would be helped by the high-level NPC, Heavenly King Lie Kong.

After running to a few places in the City of Glow, Su Hao quickly completed the application of the intern inspector.

“This is your personal inspector wristband. Even in the Sprite Summoning Continent, the radar range of the inspector wristband is a full ten kilometers. It can maintain contact with other Sprite Trainers in the range.”

“This is your Patrol Envoy’s personal wristband. Even in the Sprite Summoning Continent, the radar range of the Patrol Envoy’s wristband is a full ten kilometers. It can maintain contact with other Sprite Trainers in the range.”

In front of him…

After a round of examination, the closed counter opened, and a silver wristband with a treasure halo appeared in front of him.

Su Hao reached out and picked it up. According to the instructions on the wristband, his fingerprint and pupils were verified, and he even had to drip a drop of blood.

The legendary blood binding!

“Is this wristband itself a high-level equipment?”

“More or less. The wristband has two skills—aura concealment and advanced defense. It’s one of the few equipment in the Union that can be mass-produced… Of course, even though it is mass-produced, its value is still very, very high.”

Heavenly King Lie Kong pointed at the wristband on his hand, which was fashioned in a different style. “The one in my hand is the same as yours, but this was only obtained after I advanced to Heavenly King Tier for a long time. The equipment of your Inspector is high-end.”

…

Receiving the equipment meant that Su Hao was already halfway to becoming an intern inspector now.

But only after completing the assessment mission could he possess the various rights of an intern inspector.

“Your assessment mission should be given to you soon. You can decide how you want to handle it yourself.”

Heavenly King Lie Kong said, “Of course, this is your first time doing an inspector mission. There will be some guidance on your wristband. Be careful when the time comes. Alright, this is as far as I would help you. I hope you can successfully complete the mission.”

With that, he disappeared out the door.

Su Hao studied the wristband.

Of course, the first step was to transfer the data of the original wristband to this one.

For example, Su Hao had to move some of his old friends on his list.

Lan Qing sent a congratulatory message.

Su Hao learned that she had become a member of the exploration department and was only a squadron leader at the moment. But he expected that before long, her position would rise rapidly.

From Bai Xiaoming, Su Hao also learned where the others from the same batch went.

The Sword God went to the Command Department. It was said that he wanted to apply himself, wanting to use powerful opponents to train himself.

Xia and Lin were naturally still partners, but they had already been promoted from ordinary arrest officers to high-level arrest officers and were in charge of more important missions.

Bai Xiaoming was also going to the arrest department, but he wasn’t in charge of arresting the enemy. Instead, he was tasked with doing some intelligence work.

“Dealing with information and gathering information is indeed very suitable for him. In the future, if I have missions related to the arrest department, I can also learn some additional information from Bai Xiaoming and verify it with him.”

This was the advantage of having connections among students from the same batch.

There were even many geniuses from other countries like the Sun Son and Bella who sent Su Hao friend requests. Su Hao added them as friends. He thought there might come a time when he would have to rely on them.

“Speaking of intelligence…”

Su Hao thought of Fatty Ren and also thought that if he passed the assessment, he would have a quota for a five-man battle team under his name.

The Union’s treatment of the team members was good, and moreover he didn’t need to pay for their salaries himself.

Su Hao thought of his friends in An City.

“However, the team members under the inspector also had to go on missions and they often needed to cooperate with me on various difficult missions. As for Fatty Ren and the others, they are still too weak.”

Su Hao shook his head and continued to study the inspector wristband.

The function of the wristband was much more sophisticated than his advanced version of the wristband in the past.

There was a treasure detection inside.

He opened it directly and searched for the Flaming Crown. Instantly, five results appeared.

(1) Union Headquarters: Flaming Crown stockpile 3, contribution points: 11,000, 13,000, 16,000.

(2) Union Pacific Branch: Flaming Crown stockpile 2, contribution points: 12,000.

(3) Union Antarctica branch: Flaming Crown stockpile: 1, contribution points: 11,000.

(4) Alliance Sky City Branch:…

(5) Golden Eagle Federation’s headquarters:…

“In the past in Dragon Nation, I didn’t have access to news about the Flaming Crown for a long time. Now that I’ve done a simple search, I’m able to find out about so much?”

“Speaking of which, where is Sky City’s branch? I don’t think I’ve heard of it.”

Su Hao was troubled.

He felt that his authority had increased too quickly now, but his experience and knowledge were seriously insufficient. He thought that he should have tried to access all this information at a much earlier time.

“Well, that’s not important. Since the Flame Crown has a lot of stock, there’s no need to buy it. After all, I don’t have a lot of Union contribution points.”

Su Hao’s current Union contribution points were mostly from the inheritance information assessment.

Just ten thousand points.

It could only buy the cheapest Flaming Crown.

Apart from contribution points, his Union’s authority experience had also increased by a level. It had just passed LV9 and increased to LV10, Heavenly King level authority.

…

In the lounge, Su Hao’s expression was calm. He wasn’t as nervous as before the assessment. He was still sorting out the gains from the inheritance.

Dazed Crow, Big Fat Bear, and the others had already pretty much sorted everything out when they were in the Holy Temple area.

Their corresponding secret manuals were also improved and perfected with Intelligence Points.

Except for Butterfly…

“I don’t know what it did either. It probably emptied out the whole inheritance space. There are more than 100 million points…”

Butterfly was recording it down bit by bit.

It puffed up its face like it was doing homework.

But some information inside could be exchanged for contribution points, making it both painful and happy.

“Gurgle ~!”

It stared.

Su Hao lowered his head, indicating that he was studying the wristband.

Suddenly…

Buzz! Buzz!

The silver wristband vibrated, and a red message was sent into his wristband.

[Intern Inspector Assessment Mission]

[Mission Requirement: According to the clues provided by our informant, we have found an important Dark Society stronghold, located in Area 096 of the Sprite Summoning Continent. Sprite Trainer Su Hao, please assist the local guild, destroy the Dark Society’s stronghold, and arrest the main employees in the stronghold.]

[Examine the details]

“So that’s how it is…”

He had done the mission to destroy the Dark Society’s stronghold once in his first year of university.

But at that time, he was just a newbie, and his mission was only to snipe the fleeing Dark Society members on the periphery.

“But it’s different now. Even if I’m not the organizer, I’m definitely the main battle power, or even the highest battle power.”

Su Hao wasn’t just being full of himself.

Since the mission required him to go and provide support, it definitely needed him to play a key role.

This also meant that there wouldn’t be too many local Sprite Trainers.

“And this stronghold is very likely to be even more troublesome than the one I was involved with before.”

…

According to the newbie guide on the wristband, Su Hao found the arrest department headquarters building in the City of Glow.

Then, with the power of an intern inspector, he borrowed two arrest officers. As teammates, they headed to Area 096 to destroy the Dark Society’s stronghold.

This was all normal and it was what the inspectors usually did when they went on missions.

Whenever the mission involved a department, they would go to that department to borrow people, or directly mobilize the power of the local Sprite Trainers.

“Arrest officer, Tie Yu.”

“Arrest officer, Tong Jia.”

“We will do our best to assist you in completing the mission.”

The two arrest officers were both male, around 30 years old.

Su Hao originally wanted to borrow two familiar faces, Xia and Lin, but their levels were too high. When the two of them worked together, their battle power wasn’t any weaker than a quasi Heavenly King.

According to the big boss of the arrest department, “The team member assigned can’t be too strong. Otherwise, what’s the use of calling an inspector like you?”

The two people in front of him.

The arrest officer ‘Tie Yu’ had an Armored Dragon Hawk as his trump card.

The arrest officer ‘Tong Jia’ had a Great Titan as his trump card.

Both of them specialized in metal-element, but they took different paths of attack and defense.

They were slightly worse than Xia and Lin, but as teammates, they were still quite competent.

Not only did they have some understanding of Area 096, but they also didn’t have any contempt or jealousy towards this “newbie” who was both handsome and young. Instead, they taught Su Hao many procedures to handle missions.

“Looks like the Crime Bureau still gave me some preferential treatment. They arranged for two pretty good arrest officers to be my teammates.”

He thought.

He boarded the transport plane he had applied for halfway and headed for the World Entrance.

…

In a high-level room in the headquarters building of the arrest department in the City of Glow.

Heavenly King Chi Mei put down the documents in his hand and looked out the window at the transport plane that had just taken off at the hangar.

“This mission might actually be quite complicated.”

He shook his head.

Heavenly King Lie Kong, who had just arrived, raised his eyebrows. “What do you mean?”

“According to our informant’s information, on the surface, the Dark Society’s stronghold only has two high-level master-level Sprite Trainers, but…”

Heavenly King Chi Mei said, “There are many World Entrances in the area where the outpost is located. One of them is in the Dragon Nation and another is in the Japanese Nation. There’s also one on an island in South Asia. That area is filled with both good and bad people.”

“And I suspect that there is a fourth entrance that is in the hands of the Dark Society.”

“Then, is the Dark Society’s stronghold not as simple as it looks? It’s very likely that there’s a quasi-Heavenly King, or even…”

Heavenly King Chi Mei said slowly.

Heavenly King Lie Kong was silent for a moment. “Your arrest department should have expected this situation. Su Hao’s assessment mission should also have Heavenly King-level protection secretly, but…”

He paused for a moment. “I still hope that Su Hao can complete the mission with his own strength. After all, it’s impossible for him to stay under the wings of the Union forever. He needs to face the real difficulty head-on.”

…

At the same time…

The special transport plane carried the three of them and more than ten sprites. After flying for a few hours, they finally arrived at their destination.

They arrived at a base with a World Entrance, at the border of Congyun Province in Dragon Nation.
