Chapter 431: Good News
"'Father of Darkness' Distack?"
Chen Lun chewed on the name.
He had learned about the old god from the mouth of the Speaker Azgirro, and she seemed to be a god who had survived from the ancient era, and the Didaq bugmen were all descendants of this old god.
"Yes...... It is rumored that the darkness of this world and all the chaos are caused by her. ”
Philip nodded.
Chen Lun couldn't help frowning, and thought in his heart, if it was really as Philip said, then his task of investigating the spirit world would be considered to be half completed...... After all, the goal of the mission is only to find out the truth about the turmoil in the spiritual world, what is the source of the pollution.
But he did not have any evidence at hand, nor did he see it with his own eyes, and his own mouth alone was not convincing.
At the very least, there is no way to deal with Chief McCallin.
Therefore, he had to go to the end of the seventh layer of the dark world and see it with his own eyes.
"Philip, is there any other way to get to the end of the darkness?"
Chen Lun asked in a deep voice.
Philip raised his hand and rubbed his chin for a moment's thought.
"Jack, you should know that this world is the foundation of everything, for example, it is like a blank piece of paper, and there is more than one piece of paper that makes up this world...... The Spirit Realm is a blue piece of cardboard underneath, and the Dream Realm is a red cardboard at the bottom layer, and there are overlapping areas between them. ”
She gestured with her hands, trying to make Chen Lun understand in a visual way.
"Originally, these worlds were not connected and independent, but the true god 'Old Man Buried' at the end of the conspiracy path once did one thing, and that was to tear the rifts in the overlapping areas of these 'jams', and endlessly weave cobwebs, connecting them to create a 'cobweb hell'...... Even though she eventually fell and the Webbed Hell was only a half-finished product, it still connected parts of the area, so you can try to make a detour from the Dream Realm to the Spirit Realm to reach the Dark End. ”
"From Dream to Spirit ......"
Chen Lun nodded slowly, roughly understanding Philip's words.
It's like climbing a tall building, he wants to reach the seventh floor, but the stairs on the fourth floor are broken, and he can't go up...... So Philip proposed that he could go to the eighth floor first and then go down to the seventh floor.
However, this led to a new question, how did Chen Lun get to the eighth layer?
Chen Lunxuan even raised his doubts.
Philip smiled and explained:
"The dream realm can naturally go from the dream, and with your insight, you should have met the conditions for breaking the entrance...... But beware, when you find the only staircase leading to the underground in your dream, you must go down slowly and steadily, and after walking through the 70 steps, you will see a huge stone door, which is guarded by the Lady of Sighs, and you can enter the dream world by going down 700 steps through the "Sleeping Gate". ”
Chen Lun just wanted to speak, but the other party raised a finger and warned him solemnly:
"If you want to use this method to travel to the Dark World, then it is best to do it as soon as possible, because during this time, Lady Sigh will be leaving for exactly an hour between one o'clock in the morning and two in the morning, which is why I was able to come to see you temporarily."
"I see, Philip, thank you."
Chen Lun nodded solemnly and bowed slightly towards him.
"You're welcome, Jack, forgive me for not being able to help you too much...... In the future, I hope you can save me from my dreams. ”
Philip blinked and said with a hippie smile.
Chen Lun suddenly felt a burst of pressure, he shook his head with a wry smile, and took the opportunity to say the words that he had buried in his heart for a long time:
"With my current strength, I'm afraid I still can't catch it...... Although the mysterious accumulation of [Juggler] is almost complete, I lack the mythological knowledge of Sequence 4, and I will not be able to promote to a high-ranking saint at that time...... Philip, I've almost explored Wonderland, but I haven't found any knowledge about Sequence Four, where exactly did you hide it? ”
Philip was slightly stunned.
She immediately heard Chen Lun's subtext.
"Ahem......"
Philip coughed awkwardly, then looked up and smiled:
"That's right, Jack, you may not know it, but in fact, it involves high mythological knowledge, and it cannot be dictated...... At that time, when I wrote "Wonderland", I had not yet been promoted to a high position, so I couldn't leave you with the knowledge of Sequence 4, but don't worry, I have been prepared, you can take this opportunity to go to the dream world, I will put the mythical knowledge of [Destiny Sequence 4 - Joker] in a secret position, you can just stop by and retrieve it. ”
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
He was overjoyed.
The mythological knowledge of Sequence 4, which has been clueless, finally got good news from Philip.
After the two chatted for a few more words, Chen Lun suddenly thought of the news he had heard from the Natural Sect Saintess Lutina...... His Majesty, the god of cats, seems to have fought with Lady Sigh many times for the sake of Philip.
He thought about it for a while, and relayed the news to Philip.
After Philip listened, his face changed instantly.
"No wonder Lady Sigh has left the 'Door of Sleep' several times...... This time it must be because of Maggie! ”
She immediately paced in place, her brows furrowed, and the expression on her face became a little flustered and nervous...... Chen Lun had never seen Philip with such a look.
"I'm sorry, Jack, it's time for me to go."
Philip suddenly stopped, looked up and said.
Chen Lun nodded, silently took off his hat and put it on his chest, and bowed slightly towards him to say goodbye. Philip glanced at him one last time, his face solemn as he walked into the depths of darkness and dissipated his figure.
Vaguely, Chen Lun seemed to hear Philip murmuring:
"What a stupid woman...... Don't let it be, Maggie. ”
Chen Lun stood in the darkness of the dream, watching Philip leave.
Half a day.
He began to think back to the conversation he had with Philip, and suddenly something came to mind, and his brow furrowed.
By the way, according to Philip, the reason why I was able to detour from the dream world to the spirit world was because beyond the rift, there was a cobwebbed hell of the old man who buried the bones as a medium...... However, isn't there a conspiracy Angel Death Gemini? Will it be dangerous to go hastily? ’
Chen Lun's mood suddenly became apprehensive again.

The next day.
Chen Lun got up early to eat at the restaurant in the church district of Kang, and suddenly Connie came over and reported to him:
"Mr. Jack, Mr. Babaye, the chief steward of the Sun Royal Family, has something to look for you."
Chen Lun was a little surprised by this.
He recalls the previous Imperial Celebrations, and this man had also spoken from the high platform, and seemed to be a confidant of Prince Dazlet. So Chen Lun stopped the fork in his hand and said:
"Steward Babaye? Invite him in, and by the way, ask him if he wants to dine with me. ”
"Yes, Mr. Jack."
Connie curtsied her skirt and left the dining room.
Not for a moment.
A middle-aged man with pale skin and an extremely clean beard was ushered in by Connie, who was wearing a more modest khaki cotton coat with a light gray robe over it.
"Good day, Mr. Jackspet."
Babaye smiled kindly and stroked his chest and chin towards him.
"Thank you very much for the invitation to dine, but I have already eaten the food before I left the palace."
"Then please be seated, Mr. Babaye."
Chen Lun responded with a polite smile and immediately instructed Connie to take the robe and coat for Babaye and hang it on the coat rack by the wall.
Immediately, Connie left the restaurant in amusement, leaving only the two of them.
"The reason for this rash visit is because of the prince's secret plan."
"Covert plans?"
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
"Not bad."
Babaye nodded, the smile on his face fading into seriousness.
"Recently the prince was troubled by the war in the west, and for several days he was busy calling various meetings...... The prince was quite unhappy with the actions of the United Kingdom of Anlong, and hoped to promote more supporters to unite the military forces to carry out severe military repression against the United Kingdom of Anlong. ”
He leaned slightly, leaned his head over, and said in a deep voice:
"The prince is really moving this time."
Chen Lun's eyes froze.
It occurred to me that now that the crisis of the Red Plague had been resolved, and the Empire was no longer held back by the Red Apple Church, it could finally free up its hands to deal with the United Kingdom to the west.
Based on his memories from his previous life, he vaguely remembered that "War in the West" seemed to take place in the early part of version 2.0, as a side quest that was too early in the version to allow players to adapt to the rhythm...... It's like the "A Plague Tale" plot at the beginning of version 1.0.
'When the United Kingdom of Anlong sent assassins to assassinate the Grand Duke of the Sun Crown, the war was started as a fuse...... But this matter is too strange, there is a post in the previous life to analyze, behind this may be the play directed and acted by Prince Dazlet, what he did was to have a reasonable excuse to send troops to the United Kingdom of Anlong, but why' ......
Chen Lun was a little puzzled.
It may not be enough to simply want to recover the territory of the United Kingdom of Anloon.
'Prince Dazlet is much more than it seems, he must have a deeper purpose......
Chen Lun's heart swelled with a strong intuition.
"So Steward Babaye, what do you need me to do when you personally campaign for the prince?"
He spoke straight to the point.
Babaye smiled softly, a little deferential on his face.
"Naturally, I want your support, Mr. Jakespet."
He raised his head.
"The Empire is not only the empire of the Sun Royal Family of Trisur, but there are countless followers of the Church of the Seven Gods in the territory, and the prince is enlisting the support of the Church...... That's how people are unanimous, isn't it? ”
Babaye's voice lowered and added:
"Now that the Sun Church, the Moon Church, and the Star Sect are all on the prince's side, as long as the Council of Kang can support the prince's decision, then this battle will be more certain...... As the supreme person in charge of the Wangcheng Kang Church, you have a pivotal position, and the prince also attaches great importance to you. ”
Chen Lun felt more and more that Babaye had something to say, and he didn't think that things were so simple.
But he didn't show it, but jokingly said:
"I'm just an ordinary consul in the Parliament, and I don't represent the whole Parliament...... Moreover, when the Council was first established, its size could not be compared with the other six Orthodox Churches. ”
"No, no, no...... Mr. Jackspeter, you don't have to be so modest, no one knows better than the royal family the power of your council, and it can even be said that in this era, the council can definitely rank among the top three in the Church of the Seven Gods! ”
Babaye said hurriedly.
Chen Lun was suddenly a little stunned by the other party.
The words of the chief steward surprised him, even if it was an exaggeration, it was too exaggerated and unrealistic......
Source change app】
"In short, please think about this matter, if you choose to support the prince, then the prince must also regard you as an important friend."
Babaye finally finished with respect, and then took his leave.
In the afternoon.
Chen Lun sat on the sofa in the room reading a book, still thinking about the words of Chief Steward Babaye, he thought about it, and finally rang the golden cup token and summoned the faceless waiter.
"Good day, Lord Jack."
The Faceless Acolyte came from the spirit realm, holding a tray and bowing to him.
"Actually, before you called me, I had received the Speaker's top secret message, and I was about to convey it to you."
"Huh?"
Chen Lun was a little surprised.
The Faceless Acolyte nodded respectfully at him.
"Yesterday, the Speaker convened a secret meeting with the participation of seven consuls of the Senate...... The Speaker said that she had received the Killing Oracle and that our king had successfully ascended to the 'Cobweb Hell', just one step away from the true God. ”
“?!”
Chen Lun's face suddenly looked shocked, and he even stood up directly from the sofa.
He thought of a lot of things in this moment.
When he was personally met by Conrad, the King of Slaughter, and went to his kingdom, he heard him tell him about the spider web hell and the twin planets of death...... Now it seems that Conrad's crown has most likely successfully hunted the two angels born in the remains of the old man who were born in the remains of the buried old man, the Death Gemini.
One step away from becoming a true god?
Chen Lun couldn't help but speculate that perhaps His Majesty the Killing King had plundered some kind of power of the same root and origin in the Death Twins, thus taking it a step further.
The most important point is that in this era when the true gods are almost silent, the King of Slaughter, who was already a powerful being, can now be said to be the best of the Sequence of One-Day Angels......
Even, reached the level of the King of Angels!
'No wonder Governor Babaye said this morning that the position of the Parliament of Kang can be ranked in the top three...... After all, it depends on the power of the gods you believe in. ’
Chen Lun sighed slightly and took a deep breath.
"I know about it."
He nodded solemnly.
The Faceless Waiter then said:
The Speaker also said that the next step in parliament would be to launch a 'final hunt' against the Rotev family, which must be uprooted...... Please keep this matter in mind for Lord Jack, and report it as soon as you learn of relevant information in the future. ”
Because of the fall of the Death Gemini, the Rotev family lost their last support...... So much so that the Parliament will cut down the grass and erase all hidden dangers. ’
Chen Lun understood in his heart and saw through the speaker's intentions.
He nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Finally, the Speaker has a separate message for you, saying that the status and prestige of the Council of Kang will change dramatically in the future, and you, as the supreme head of the Wangcheng Branch, have full authority over all matters."
Chen Lun was silent for a few seconds.
From the words conveyed by the faceless attendant, he could not help but feel a little feeling in his heart when he heard the unconditional trust of the Speaker Azgierro.
'In that case, I may also be exempt from the Senate and the Speaker of the Senate for the proposal of Governor Babaye......
Chen Lun fell into deep thought.
On the one hand, he felt that there was no harm in supporting Prince Dazlet in the matter of the Western War, after all, this was something that would inevitably happen in version 2.0 of his previous life. On the other hand, Princess Anna had warned him not to get too close to the prince.
After several trade-offs, Chen Lun chose a slightly compromised method.
That is to restrain the strength of support while standing in line with the prince, which is a relatively helpless decision under unknown circumstances.
