The Mysterious Department of the Temple of Life! Li Huan Reports Candace!

Li Huan had a rough understanding of Skeleton King's abilities now.

His heart was lifted and he relaxed significantly.

Even if he had to go against Candace next, he at least had a bit of confidence.

After storing Skeleton King in the Undead Space, Li Huan quickly returned to the city. Next, he had to continue pushing forward with his plan.

Every day of delay would put him in greater danger.

By relying on his memories, Li Huan eventually found a blacksmith shop in the city.

"Eh? Isn't this the genius Mage Li Huan? Are you here to patronize our business? It's just that we're merely a place that works with metal. If you're looking to buy magic equipment, we don't have them here!"

The blacksmith shop worker raised his head, and wiped his perspiration with a towel.

Of course, Li Huan had not searched for the place to buy metal equipment. That blacksmith shop was not as simple as it looked!

It looked like an unremarkable shop, but it was actually a stronghold of the Temple of Life!

The Shadow Department of the Temple of Life was responsible for going undercover among the general population, investigating and looking out for evil and heresy!

Of course, ordinary people would not know that. But inside Li Huan's memories from his previous life, he had worked with those people to get rid of Candace!

"I want to see the boss."

Li Huan went straight to the point.

"Ah, this... I wonder what the matter could be? Why don't you tell me first?"

"That won't do. I have an important matter to discuss with the boss. You won't be able to make a decision."

The blacksmith thought it was odd, but nodded and called his boss out.

"Hehe! Genius Mage..."

"I have important information about a Necromancer."

He had no time to waste. Every minute he spent outside was extremely dangerous for him.

The smile on the boss' face twitched slightly, then he responded quickly.

"Oh oh! Mage Tower needs metal equipment! I was wondering what the matter was! Sure! Follow me first and we'll take our time to discuss!"

Li Huan followed the boss into the blacksmith shop. At a small house behind the shop, the boss moved a box aside, unexpectedly revealing an underground tunnel.

When they reached the end of the tunnel, there was a small basement. A few people there were holding daggers.

They all had the same epaulets on their shoulders. It was their symbol.

The boss nodded towards a few people, then turned around and left, closing the basement door behind him.

"Candace, he's not a Summoner at all."

Before anyone could field a question, Li Huan spoke.

A man stood up from the shadows. His dressing was a bit different from the others. He was the leader of that secret stronghold.

A Temple Judge.

"Are you talking about Candace? You're saying he's not a Summoner?"

The middle-aged man looked extremely ferocious. The tattoos and scars on his arms appeared menacing in the dark.

"Yes, he is a Necromancer. He has disguised as a Summoner for the purpose of using his position to rope in more apprentices, and then make use of their bodies, and even their lives."

Those present all knew who Li Huan was. They knew that he was a genius Mage who was highly favored by Candace.

Now, he was suddenly saying that Candace was a great villain. Could it be that he was thinking of destroying Candace to replace him?

"Evidence."

The Temple Judge stabbed the wooden table with the dagger in his hand. The candle on the table did not shake at all, yet the dagger pierced right through the table.

"I don't have evidence."

"Kid, we don't have time to waste on you."

Someone sneered with disdain.

"I have changed classes. I am a Summoner."

He executed the Hand Seal with a single move, and a Skeleton appeared in front of everyone.

"What are you trying to do!"

Everyone exclaimed.

"This is the type of Skeleton that a true Summoner summons. What Candace summons is completely different."

For Li Huan's first summon, he had summoned the king of a race. That was why it was a bit more difficult.

The current summon was only of an ordinary Skeleton. It was effortless to Li Huan.

Everyone saw that Li Huan had no ill intentions, and that he had summoned a genuine Skeleton.

They had more or less witnessed Candace's Skeleton Summoning performances before, and there were indeed some discrepancies compared to Li Huan's.

The Temple Judge's expression became complicated. Candace was not a random member of society, but an all-powerful deceiver of the masses in Luca Town!

"You, go get the Priest."

He pointed to another person.

They only had Li Huan's side of the story. Accusing Candace just based on that would not be that simple.

The Priest was the most powerful figure in the temple. It was not a small matter. They had better discuss it with the Priest.

The air in the room was suddenly filled with anxiety.

After a short while, the Priest pushed the door open and entered.

There were already beads of perspiration on his head. Even a person of his position did not dare to ignore the matter, so he rushed over after receiving the news.

"You're saying that not only is Candace not a Summoner, he's a Necromancer who has secretly committed many evil deeds?"

"That's right."

"Can we really convict him, based solely on your feelings? If we wrongly accuse a good person, not to mention an Arch Mage widely respected by tens of thousands, our temple..."

In their eyes, Li Huan was a rare genius. Moreover, he did have interactions with Candace. So there was some credibility to what he was saying.

"We don't have any more time. Many Mage apprentices have already died at his hands, haven't you noticed? Luca Town's rate of accidental death of Mage apprentices is not low."

"And with my talent, I will definitely be his next test subject."

The Priest nodded. In recent years, Luca Town's Mage apprentices had often gone missing or died by accident. But Candace had always said that a Mage's journey to leveling up was fraught with danger. As they usually did not come into contact with other Mages, they could only believe Candace's words.

Candace had packaged himself as an extremely kind person who earnestly guided and groomed Mage apprentices. It was hard to imagine that he was the evil mastermind behind everything.

While the others in the temple were brainstorming, Li Huan received a mission.

[The Truth Behind the Necromancer]

Mission Objective: Expose, kill Candace

Note: Candace's death will be sufficient to complete the mission

"Li Huan! How about this! We don't have more conclusive evidence right now. Go back first. We will secretly send people to protect you, and see if Candace really tries to harm you?"

"No!"

Did they think he was stupid? He was an NPC. Once he died, he would truly cease to exist. He was not going to risk his life! Moreover, killing Candace was the temple's destiny. Li Huan was only shifting the time forward a little!

"No! That really won't do!"

After all that consideration, Li Huan refused a few more times.

Seeing how resolute Li Huan was, the Priest became slightly embarrassed. After all, it was not a matter they could simply ignore. At the same time, they could not force him to risk his life.

"But..."
