Chapter 432 Good News
"'Father of Darkness' Distedak?"
Chen Lun chewed on the name.
He once learned information about this ancient god from the mouth of Speaker Azgierro. He seems to be a god who has survived from the ancient era to the present. Those Didak bug-men are all derived from this ancient god. descendants.
"Yes...it is rumored that the darkness and all the chaos in this world are caused by Him."
Phillip nodded and said.
Chen Lun couldn't help frowning and thought for a while. If it was true as Philip said, then his mission of investigating the spiritual world could be considered to be more than half completed... After all, the goal of the mission was to find out the truth about the turmoil in the spiritual world and what was the source of the pollution.
But he didn't have any evidence at hand, and he didn't see it with his own eyes. His words alone were not convincing.
At the very least, there is no way to report to Chief McCallion.
Therefore, he must go to the end of the seventh level of the dark world to see with his own eyes.
"Philip, is there any other way to get to the end of darkness?"
Chen Lun asked in a deep voice.
Phillip raised his hand and rubbed his chin, thinking for a moment.
"Jack, you should know that this world is the foundation of everything. For example, it is like a blank piece of paper, but there are more than one piece of paper that makes up this world... The spiritual world is a blue card underneath. Paper and Dream World are the lower layer of red cardboard, and there are overlapping areas between them.”
He gestured with his hands, trying to make Chen Lun understand in a vivid way.
"Originally, these worlds were incompatible and independent. However, the true god at the end of the conspiracy path, the Bone Burial Old Man, once did one thing, which was to tear open a gap in the overlapping areas of these 'paper jams'. And endlessly weaving spider webs to connect them, Created a 'Cobweb Hell'... Even if He finally fell and the 'Cobweb Hell' was only a half-finished product, it still connected some areas, so you can try to bypass the dream world and reach the end of darkness." br>
"From the dream world to the spirit world..."
Chen Lun nodded slowly, roughly understanding what Phillip said.
Just like climbing a tall building, he wanted to reach the seventh floor, but the stairs on the fourth floor were broken and there was no way to go up... So Philip suggested that he could go to the eighth floor first and then go down to the seventh floor.
However, this leads to a new question, how does Chen Lun get to the eighth floor?
Chen Lunxuan even raised his doubts.
Philip smiled and explained:
"The dream world can naturally be accessed from dreams. With your insight, you should have met the conditions for exploring the entrance... But be careful, when you find the only ladder leading to the underground in your dream, you must use it slowly and carefully. Walk down 70 steps with steady steps, and you will see a huge stone door, which is the 'Sleep Door' guarded by Ms. Sigh. Pass through the 'Sleep Door' and go down 700 steps to reach the door. Enter the dream world.”
Just as Chen Lun was about to speak, the other party raised another finger and warned him seriously:
"If you want to use this method to go to the dark world, you'd better do it as soon as possible, because during this time, Ms. Sigh will leave for exactly one hour between one in the morning and two in the morning. This is why I can come to see you temporarily. .”
"I understand, Philip, thank you."
Chen Lun nodded solemnly and bowed slightly towards him.
"You're welcome, Jack, please forgive me for not helping you too much... In the future, I still count on you to save me from the dream world."
Phillip blinked and said with a playful smile.
Chen Lun suddenly felt a burst of pressure. He shook his head with a fake smile and took the opportunity to say what he had buried in his heart for a long time:
"With my current strength, I'm afraid I'm still not up to it... Although the accumulation of the [Juggler's] mysteries has almost been completed, I lack the mythological knowledge of Sequence Four, and I will not be able to advance to a high-ranking saint by then... Philip, I have already reached the fairyland. We’ve almost explored it, but we haven’t found any knowledge about Sequence Four. Where did you hide it?”
Phillip was slightly startled.
He immediately heard Chen Lun's subtext.
"Ahem..."
Phillip coughed awkwardly, then raised his head and smiled:
"It's like this, Jack, you may not know yet. In fact, mythological knowledge involving high-level positions cannot be spoken orally... When I wrote "Wonderland", I had not yet been promoted to a high-level position, so I could not leave you with Sequence Four. knowledge, but don’t worry, I have already prepared. You can take this opportunity to go to the dream world. I will put the mythological knowledge of [Fate Sequence Four-Joker] in a secret location. You can just go and retrieve it. .”
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
He was immediately overjoyed.
Having never had a clue about the Sequence Four mythology, I finally got good news from Philip.
After the two chatted for a few more words, Chen Lun suddenly thought of the news he heard from Saint Lutina of the Nature Sect... His Majesty Maggie, the Cat God, seemed to have fought against Ms. Sigh many times for Philip.
He thought for a while and conveyed the news to Philip.
After hearing this, Phillip's expression changed instantly.
"No wonder Ms. Sigh has suddenly left the 'Gate of Sleep' several times... this time it must be because of Maggie!"
He immediately started pacing on the spot, frowning, and the expression on his face became a little flustered and nervous... Chen Lun had never seen Phillip look like this before.
"Sorry, Jack, I have to go."
Phillip suddenly stopped, raised his head and said.
Chen Lun nodded, silently took off his hat and put it on his chest, bowing slightly to say goodbye. Phillip glanced at him one last time, his face solemn as he walked into the depths of darkness and disappeared.
Vaguely, Chen Lun seemed to hear Phillip murmuring:
"What a stupid woman...don't let anything happen to you, Maggie."
Chen Lun stood in the darkness of the dream and watched Phillip leave.
A long while.
He began to think about the conversation with Phillip just now, suddenly thought of something, and frowned.
‘By the way, according to what Philip said, the reason why we can detour from the dream world to the spirit world is because there is the spider web hell of the buried old man outside the crack as a medium to connect... But, isn’t there the conspiracy angel Death Gemini there? Is there any danger in going there rashly? ’
Chen Lun suddenly felt anxious again.

the next day.
Chen Lun got up early and ate at the restaurant in Fengshen Church District. Suddenly Connie came over and reported to him:
"Mr. Jack, Mr. Babaye, the chief steward of the Sun Royal Family, wants to see you for something."
Chen Lun was a little surprised by this.
He recalled the previous imperial celebration. This person had spoken on the high platform and seemed to be a confidant of Prince Dazlater. So Chen Lun stopped the fork in his hand and said:
"General Steward Babaya? Invite him in, and help me ask him if he wants to dine with me."
"Okay, Mr. Jack."
Connie knelt down, lifted her skirt, and left the restaurant immediately.
Not for a moment.
A middle-aged man with pale skin and an extremely clean shave was led in by Connie. Today he was wearing a relatively low-key khaki cotton coat with a light gray robe on top.
"Good day, Mr. Jack Spate."
Babaye smiled kindly, caressed his chest and nodded.
"Thank you for the invitation, but I have eaten the food before leaving the palace."
"Then please take a seat, Mr. Babaya."
Chen Lun responded with a polite smile, and immediately ordered Connie to take Babaye's robe and coat and hang it on the coat rack by the wall.
Immediately, Connie wisely left the restaurant, leaving only the two of them.
"I came here rashly this time because of the prince's secret plan."
"Secret plan?"
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
"Not bad."
Baba Ye nodded, and the smile on his face gradually faded and turned serious.
"Recently, the prince is worried about the war in the west. He has been busy convening various meetings for several days... The prince is quite dissatisfied with the actions of the Anlong United Kingdom. He hopes to attract more supporters and unite the military forces to attack the Anlong United Kingdom. Implement severe military repression.”
He leaned slightly, leaned his head over, and said in a deep voice:
"The prince is serious this time."
Chen Lun's eyes narrowed.
He thought in his mind that now that the crisis of the Red Disaster has been resolved, the Empire is no longer constrained by the Red Apple Church, and can finally be free to deal with the United Kingdom in the west.
Based on the memory of his previous life, he vaguely remembered that the "Western War" seemed to have happened in the early stages of version 2.0. It was an excessive side mission at the beginning of the version to allow players to adapt to the rhythm... just like the "Plague Tale" plot at the beginning of version 1.0. Same.
'At the beginning, the United Kingdom of Anlong sent assassins to assassinate the Grand Duke of the Sun Royal Family, which served as a trigger to start the war... But this matter was too strange. There were posts in previous lives that analyzed it. Prince Dazlet may have been behind this. The purpose of the self-acting drama is to have a reasonable excuse to send troops to the United Kingdom of Anlong, but why...'
Chen Lun was a little confused.
If you simply want to take back the territory of the Anlong United Kingdom, this may not be enough.
'Prince Dazlet is far from being as simple as he seems on the surface, he must have a deeper purpose...'
Chen Lun had a strong intuition in his heart.
"So, Chief Steward Babaya, you are personally working for the prince. What do you need from me?"
He expressed his doubts directly.
Baba Ye smiled softly, showing some respect on his face.
"Of course I hope to gain your support, Mr. Jack Spate."
He raised his head.
"The empire is not only the empire of the Trisul Sun Royal Family, but there are also countless believers of the Church of the Seven Gods in the territory. The prince is trying to win the support of the church... Only in this way can the people be unified, right?"
Babaye lowered his voice and added:
"Now that the Church of the Sun, the Church of the Moon and the Church of the Stars are all on the prince's side, as long as the Generous Council can support the prince's decision, then this battle will be more certain... and you, as the leader of the Generous Church in the Royal City The highest person in charge has a very important position, and the prince also attaches great importance to your attitude.”
Chen Lun felt more and more that there was something in Babaya's words. He didn't think things were that simple.
But he did not show it, but said jokingly:
"I am just an ordinary consul in the parliament, and I cannot represent the entire parliament... Moreover, when the Generosity Council was first established, its size is completely incomparable with the other six Orthodox churches."
"No, no no... Mr. Jack Spate, you don't have to be so humble. No one knows the power of your Generous Council better than the royal family. It can even be said that in today's era, the Generous Council is absolutely powerful in the Church of the Seven Gods. Can be ranked among the top three! ”
Babaye said quickly.
Chen Lun was immediately confused by the other party.
He was surprised by the words of the chief steward. Even if they were words of praise, they were too exaggerated and unrealistic...
"In short, please think more about this matter. If you choose to support the prince, then the prince will definitely regard you as an important friend."
Babaye finally finished speaking with great respect and then bowed and left.
In the afternoon.
Chen Lun was sitting on the sofa in the room reading a book, still thinking about the words of Manager Babaya in his mind. He thought for a while, and finally rang the golden cup token and summoned the faceless waiter.
"Good day, Lord Jack."
The faceless waiter came from the spirit world, holding a tray and bowing to him.
"Actually, before you called me, I had accepted the Speaker's top secret oral message and was planning to convey it to you."
"Huh?"
Chen Lun was a little surprised.
The faceless waiter nodded respectfully to him.
"Yesterday, the Speaker held a secret meeting, with a total of seven Senate Consuls participating... The Speaker said that he received the oracle of killing, and that my king has successfully ascended to the 'Cobweb Hell', and is only one step away from the true God."
"?!"
Chen Lun suddenly looked shocked and even stood up from the sofa.
He thought of many things at this moment.
When I was personally interviewed by His Majesty Conrad, the King of Slaughter, and went to his kingdom, I heard him tell me about Spider Web Hell and the Twin Stars of Death... Now it seems that His Majesty Konrad has probably succeeded. He hunted down two angels, the Death Twins, who were born from the remains of the buried old man and were on the same conspiracy path.
Only one step away from becoming a true god?
Chen Lun couldn't help but guess that perhaps the King of Slaughter had plundered some kind of power from the same source in the Death Twins, and thus went one step further.
The most important point is that in this era when the true gods are almost silent, the King of Slaughter, an originally powerful existence, can now be said to be the leader among the Sequence One Angels...
Even, it has reached the level of the King of Angels!
‘No wonder Chief Steward Babaya said this morning that the Council of Generosity can be ranked among the top three... After all, it still depends on the power of the gods it believes in. ’
Chen Lun sighed briefly and took a deep breath.
"I know this."
He nodded solemnly.
The faceless waiter then said:
"The speaker also said that the parliament will launch a 'final hunting operation' against the Rotev family and must eradicate them... Sir Jack, please keep this matter in mind. Once you learn relevant information in the future, you need to report it as soon as possible." Report.”
‘Due to the fall of the Death Twins, the Rotov family lost its last support... so much so that the Generous Council eradicated all hidden dangers. ’
Chen Lun understood clearly in his heart and saw through the speaker's intention.
He nodded to show that he understood.
"Finally, the Speaker summoned you alone, saying that the status and reputation of the Generous Parliament will undergo tremendous changes in the future, and that as the top person in charge of the Royal City Branch, you can make full decisions on all matters."
Chen Lun was silent for a few seconds.
From the words conveyed by the faceless waiter, he could hear Speaker Azgierro's unconditional trust in him, and he couldn't help but feel something in his heart.
‘In this case, I don’t need to consult the Senate and the Speaker about the proposal of Steward Babaye...’
Chen Lun fell into deep thought.
On the one hand, he felt that there was no harm in supporting Prince Dazlater regarding the Western War. After all, this was something that would inevitably happen in version 2.0 of the previous life. On the other hand, Princess Anna warned him that it was best not to get too close to the prince.
After weighing several times, Chen Lun chose a slightly compromised approach.
That is, while siding with the prince, trying to restrain the intensity of support. This is a relatively helpless decision under unknown circumstances. (End of chapter)
