Something’s Wrong with This Game — I Became a God by Mining!

In the courtyard of the First Division, Public Security Department, Ironclad Department, Changhe Prefectural Capital.

This courtyard was originally not large, but now it was filled with Ironclad Constables from all three divisions, making it even more crowded.

Some constables had no choice but to press against the courtyard wall, craning their necks to look forward.

All the Directors of the Third Division of the Bandit Apprehension Division had arrived.

Their subordinate Chief Constables and Constables numbered over a thousand in total.

The number of Ironclad Constables in the Public Security Division was slightly smaller, around two to three hundred, but each one was an elite, with overall strength significantly surpassing the Ironclad Constables of the Bandit Apprehension Division.

The Inspection Division had the fewest constables; they normally only handled clerical work, and the three divisions combined barely numbered over a hundred, with their martial arts cultivation levels varying greatly.

After all, even Directors like Lin Yan and Huo Dong were merely Ninth-Rank martial artists.

In the center of the courtyard stood the Directors of each division.

Wen Xiaoba stood beside Wen Kongxuan, looking at the scene before him. He felt both shocked and curious, unable to help asking:

"Chief, is there some big announcement today?"

Wen Kongxuan's expression was grave, and he gently shook his head:

"I don't know. Just wait for them to announce it."

Wen Xiaoba could only wait patiently, already guessing that this matter was probably related to Chief Constable Yang and Director Yun.

Zhang Tie glanced around, then produced a document with the fire lacquer seal of Yunwen Provincial Capital:

"Gathering all colleagues today, I have several appointments from Yunwen Provincial Capital to announce."

"Starting today, Sun Biao, Director of the First Division, Public Security Department, will no longer hold that position and must immediately report to Yunwen Provincial Capital."

As soon as these words were spoken, the constables of the Public Security Division erupted in commotion. Some were shocked and furious, others were startled and uncertain, their expressions tense.

The two deputy Chief Constables under Sun Biao exchanged glances, both seeing the gravity in each other's eyes.

"Director Zhang, what is the meaning of this from your Inspection Department!?"

A Chief Constable under Sun Biao suddenly spoke in a deep voice.

Seeing this, his subordinates also looked at Zhang Tie with fire in their eyes.

Sun Biao frowned and said, "Do you have a place to speak here? Director Zhang is simply carrying out his duties. Just listen!"

That Chief Constable, hearing this, backed down and dared not speak again.

His subordinate Ironclad Constables hung their heads in silence, their expressions unnatural.

Zhang Tie had long anticipated that these Ironclad Constables would react this way, which was why he had proactively informed Sun Biao and the others beforehand to avoid a mutiny.

"The second appointment: Shi Xin, Director of the Third Division, Public Security Department, is to be immediately transferred to the First Division, Public Security Department, Ironclad Department of Xiangfeng Prefectural Capital as Director."

At this transfer order, the Ironclad Constables of the Public Security Division grew uneasy.

Why were two Directors of the Public Security Division being transferred away all of a sudden?

Shi Xin currently had no Chief Constables under him, only a group of Ironclad Constables like Lü Zhan.

Their reaction was somewhat milder, because Shi Xin was being transferred to another prefectural capital as Director of the First Division of the Public Security Department.

This was clearly a promotion.

"Director Zhang, Director Sun has been transferred to Yunwen Provincial Capital, and Lord Shi has been transferred to Xiangfeng Prefectural Capital. So, the position of Director of the First Division, Public Security Department of our Changhe Prefectural Capital..."

The Director of the First Division of the Bandit Apprehension Division spoke slowly, his eyes pausing on Yun Ruo for a moment.

Zhang Tie: "Now, the third appointment."

The Ironclad Constables' expressions shifted, their eyes fixed unblinkingly on Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie cleared his throat: "According to the appointment from Yunwen Provincial Capital, the position of Director of the First Division, Public Security Department of Changhe Prefectural Capital will be held by Director Yang Ling."

"At the same time, until the position of Director of the Third Division is decided, Director Yang will also concurrently serve as Director of the Third Division."

As soon as these words were spoken, the courtyard fell into a dead silence where you could hear a pin drop.

The Ironclad Constables looked at Yang Ling in disbelief, their eyes filled with shock.

This guy was previously just a Chief Constable of Green Mountain City, hadn't even taken a post in Changhe Prefectural Capital, and had never served as a deputy Chief Constable under any Director.

And now, after returning from Yunwen Provincial Capital, he was being appointed as Director of the First Division, Public Security Department of Changhe Prefectural Capital!?

A flash of surprise crossed the eyes of the Director of the First Division of the Bandit Apprehension Division.

The Director of the Second Division also unconsciously straightened his posture, his expression somewhat shaken.

After a brief moment of stunned disbelief, a look of joy flashed across Wen Kongxuan's face.

Wen Xiaoba stared blankly at Yang Ling's face, which was as young as his own.

"By my great grand-uncle, Chief Constable Yang is about the same age as me. How did he become the Director of the First Division of the Public Security Department..."

Most of the Ironclad Constables were in a state of shock at this moment.

Only a very small number of Chief Constables, beyond their shock, also felt some anger and indignation.

The two Chief Constables under Sun Biao showed it most clearly. The way they looked at Yang Ling seemed to shoot fire.

Sun Biao suddenly glanced at them, then clasped his fists at Yang Ling and said with a smile:

"Director Yang, from now on, the First Division of the Public Security Department of Changhe Prefectural Capital will be under your charge. This old bones will go to Yunwen Provincial Capital to enjoy a quiet retirement."

He paused. "Director Yang, these Chief Constables under me have been with me for many years. You wouldn't mind if this old man takes them with him, would you?"

Those two Chief Constables were stunned.

Yang Ling was also taken aback. How could he not see that Sun Biao was clearing the way for him and solving a potential problem?

A touch of emotion and gratitude stirred in his heart, and he immediately clasped his fists in return:

"Thank you, Director Sun."

"What are you thanking me for? As long as you kill a few more Rong Tribe spies, this old face of mine will have some glory."

Sun Biao said with a grin. But as he said this, his expression suddenly turned grim, and he swept his cold gaze across the Ironclad Constables present, including the two disgruntled Chief Constables under him:

"This time, Director Yang, in the Water Qilin Cave, defeated the scheme of the Rong tribe's Heavenly Wolf Guard, killed the Heavenly Wolf Guard's Copper Generation scouts Tong Si and Tong Jiu, and even Tong Yi was killed by Director Yang's design!

Director Yang has performed a monumental service on this mission! Not only did he recover a huge loss for our Zhao State, but he also saved the face of our Ironclad Department."

Hearing this news for the first time, all the Ironclad Constables gasped sharply.

"He killed three of the Copper Generation Heavenly Wolf Guards?! And one of them was Tong Yi!?"

"Director Yang is indeed at odds with the Rong tribe spies. It's only been this long, and the number of Rong tribe spies who have fallen into his hands is already uncountable..."

"With such merit, he truly deserves the position of Director of the First Division of the Public Security Department. Moreover, Director Yang himself is a Seventh-Rank expert and has the qualifications!"

The three Directors of the Bandit Apprehension Division also had shock in their eyes.

They deeply understood the gold, silver, and bronze agent configuration of the Heavenly Wolf Guard.

Even someone as strong as He Dongfeng was not a member of the Copper Generation.

Those who could become Copper Generation Heavenly Wolf Guards were all the most elite scouts, deeply favored by that Heavenly Wolf Guard Commander!

They even suspected that there were no Copper Generation spies lurking in Changhe Prefectural Capital.

This kind of scout was mostly lurking in major provincial capitals, the three Princely Capitals, and even the national Capital!

The two Chief Constables under Sun Biao were briefly stunned, then wore embarrassed expressions, though a trace of lingering resentment remained in their eyes.

Sun Biao let out a light laugh and continued:

"Oh, and also, Director Yang has already passed the Sixth-Rank assessment at Yunwen Provincial Capital this time and has become a newly promoted Sixth-Rank."

"The assessment was conducted by Lu Yunchen, Director of the First Division, Public Security Department of the Yunwen Provincial Capital Ironclad Department, a Sixth-Rank Ironclad."

"The witnesses were Zhao Xun, a Fifth-Rank Ironclad of the Capital Ironclad Department, Lord Zhao Xun, and... the Fourth Prince."

Dead silence fell over the entire courtyard. Then, a wave of sharp gasps filled the air.

When the Ironclad Constables from all sides looked at Yang Ling again, there was no trace of the last bit of defiance or indignation left. Their eyes were filled only with awe and shock!
