The bank clerk glanced at Li Ang, "Do not disturb our work."
He pulled out a form from beside the counter and handed it to Li Ang.
"If you have any objections to our work, fill out the form."
Li Ang looked at it, and the form had a lot of content. From the beginning, you had to check options for various matters, including special issues, appeals, unconventional doctrines, and so on. Each option had a pile of branches with blanks and options. If he chose to appeal in this way to resolve the freezing issue, it would take half a day.
Based on experience, even after filling it out, the response would likely be "Wait for it" or "Under processing." Who knows when he would get a real response, and even then, the buck would still be passed around.
The Holy Capital Bank was established in the early days of the Guild, and with its first-mover advantage, it beca the beacon for the financial safety of many Sky Knights. Now, in the Demon Disaster Realm, it is a colossal entity.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that inside the deep vaults of the bank, more than eighty percent of the wealth of the forefront Sky Knights might be stored.
For this reason, it has invisibly garnered the support of many powerful Sky Knights.
But with Flower City's developnt, the atmosphere of the Holy City has changed sowhat, and so has the bank's way of doing things. It feels more like before Li Ang's ti travel.
Even if Li Ang presented the Grand Knight's dal now, they would at most send soone to receive him, but the problem might not be resolved. Because Rams has certainly maneuvered things at a higher level.
Seeing no action from him, the clerk coldly sneered at Li Ang, "What? Do I need to call security?"
There's no point talking to this clerk.
Li Ang unleashed Spiritual Driving, saying, "Bring the person responsible for the freezing here."
"That's ," the mustached Niu Nan announced, puffing his chest.
"You?"
The horned man pointed to his own na badge.
Li Ang looked over, and indeed, there was a line of text specifying his identity, though Li Ang hadn't bothered to look.
Holy Capital Bank — Adventure Area Headquarters — Depositor Managent Manager: Malonan.
Even with his will sealed by Spiritual Driving, this Niu Nan nad Malonan retained his arrogance.
He held his head high, his horns seeming to nearly touch the ceiling, "If the young man at this station hadn't gone missing without leave, with so many custors, I wouldn't be here. Be grateful; I've worked in the bank for over a decade and am well-versed in all procedural matters."
"Then tell , why freeze my personal bank account?" Li Ang held up the Engraved Card.
"Ranked first, oh no, now the second in the Magic Soul Apex of the Sky Knight Order, the leader lodged a complaint with us, suspecting the previous team commander of embezzling team assets using his position. So, a freeze was implented for specific investigation purposes."
"Yes, that's the official statent for the public."
This kind of statent Li Ang had already heard before leaving the Holy City.
"Even if there's an investigation, it should be over by now, right? Besides, this fundantally doesn't follow procedure, because you guys have no concrete evidence."
According to the Guild-issued Holy City legal code under the economic project's banking and personal property protection chapter, the Holy Capital Bank is sowhat non-compliant with such actions.
But Li Ang also knew that in any place, regulations could be torn apart in the face of interests and power.
He said to Manager Malonan, whose will he'd nullified, "Speak, what's really going on here? Don't hold back."
The mustached Niu Nan showed a struggling expression on his face. He opened his mouth as if to speak but forcibly held back.
Li Ang raised an eyebrow; this guy seed interesting.
Even for a squad leader like Fukate from the Order Sandstorm Corps in the Excellence Realm, resistance to Spiritual Driving mostly stemd from their spiritual structure being hard to break, not from resisting after being afflicted.
Could this be so huge secret?
How was he holding back from revealing it? With his will sealed to zero, there must be so other power supporting him.
Li Ang switched to the Spiritual Horizon to observe Malonan's spiritual structure.
He discovered that although his will was gone, his social instincts and survival instincts were fiercely resisting in his thought module.
Speaking up would result in not just social death but also death in life?
Similarly, the mustached Niu Nan wasn't just relying on himself to resist; his spiritual structure also had a magic fortification, seemingly a decree-type magic.
Li Ang raised his hand, preparing to strengthen his Spiritual Driving, sealing those two spirits of his.
"You, you're casting magic on , how can there still be such magic—"
Spiritual Driving isn't complete mind control; those who are well-inford and know themselves well will realize this after being afflicted, but they usually can't defy Li Ang's will and will forget this period afterward.
His social instincts were sealed, and his survival instincts were half-sealed; the latter was only half-sealed because Li Ang was afraid he might suddenly resort to self-harm.
"I, I..."
Niu Nan murmured to himself, then answered, "A few days ago, soone from the Order Fla Corps ca to have your personal bank freeze lifted."
Li Ang nodded.
Previously, Aifei promised that as long as he returned to the Holy City, the matter would be resolved.
She sent people from the regint, maybe the bank simply paid lip service, or they outright refused, but in any case, the issue certainly hadn't reached her ears.
Otherwise, with her personality, she would definitely co over herself.
And the reason she hadn't co to the Holy City to resolve things herself was because Li Ang had asked her to investigate matters regarding the Holy Speriel Empire.
Ever since their last parting, she'd been occupied with that task.
"Even when soone from the Order Sky Knight Corps cos, you dare to continue with the freeze?" Li Ang asked.
