I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 256 - 190: The Whereabouts of the Last Quarter (Two in One)
Chapter 256: Chapter 190: The Whereabouts of the Last Quarter (Two in One)
Amber City’s Inner City District.
A common building.
In an office at the top floor, Mona was tiredly reviewing and correcting some documents.
In recent times, due to the sudden arrival of Undead Foreigners, a series of problems had been triggered. After investigation, many criminal cases were found to be caused by these chaotic Undead.
The Security Office was exhausted from dealing with the situation, and the Shelter, as an official superhuman institution, was also under great pressure.
Fortunately, the “Undying Prison” was established in time, and a large number of Undead were detained. This caused a great deterrence to their community and the crime rate finally started to steadily decrease.
At this moment, the office door was knocked on.
Knock, knock…
“Come in,”
Mona put down the document in her hand and spoke up.
The door was then opened, and Mona rubbed her temples before looking up.
The visitor was her senior, Ralph.
“Group Leader Mona, you’ve been working hard.”
Ralph passed her a new set of documents.
“This is a report about the Circus, and there is also a letter addressed specifically to you from Jack Spett…”
Mona thanked him, then flipped open the documents.
“Thanks to the Circus these past days, they have helped suppress many Undead…”
A long-absent smile appeared on Mona’s face.
“Mr. Jack truly is a commendable man of justice.”
She gestured for Ralph to sit down and opened the letter from Jack.
After a while, she couldn’t help but frown.
“Akebin might not be the culprit of the plague…?”
At this point, Ralph, hearing her words, shook his head.
“Impossible, this is an order personally issued by the Judge. It can’t be wrong!”
Mona nodded, but her eyes revealed contemplation.
Because Jack, in his letter, did not simply provide speculation, but also added some valuable clues, including specific findings at the village during the field investigation.
“Jack didn’t confirm it either, he just shared this piece of intelligence, letting us make our own judgments…” Mona said.
She poured Ralph a cup of tea, and he took a sip before saying:
“The omens given by Destiny are always ambiguous… We should firmly believe in the Judge’s will.”
“Mm.”
Mona seemed to remember something and rummaged through a drawer, extracting a crumpled note and passing it to Ralph.
“This is a whistleblower letter from a few Undead Foreigners from a couple of days ago. They claimed to have spotted Akebin.”
Ralph set down his teacup and took the note with a frown.
“What are you planning to do?”
“Based on the clues, I sent people to investigate and indeed found traces he left behind, so I reported to Fossil City… The ‘Executioner Squad’ has already set out, and by now might…”
Mona had not finished speaking when the notepad on the table suddenly vibrated.
Buzz!
Her gaze swept over it, and she was immediately taken aback, disbelief in her eyes.
Ralph sensed something was amiss and asked:
“Group Leader Mona, what happened?”
Mona was silent for a while, then hoarsely said:
“The Executioner Squad… has been annihilated!”
“What?!”
Ralph stood up abruptly, shocked.
“But that’s a squad of elite Transcendents from the Shelter… How could this happen? Akebin is at most a Sequence Six Transcendent, could he have had assistance?!”
“No… it wasn’t Akebin.”
Mona handed over the notepad and shook her head.
“It was done by an A-class fugitive—Dark Knight Bales!”
Ralph looked at the notepad, his complexion turning extremely grim.
“It’s him! The Sun Church and Moon Church of Flower Nation’s Main City have been pursuing him all this while, and he actually fled to Amber City…? And he even dared to strike at our Shelter’s ‘Executioner Squad’! He’s too arrogant!”
Mona pondered for a moment.
“I’ve read the case files of the defection in Sunflower City; their local Shelter also dispatched an ‘Executioner Squad’ to pursue him… Perhaps Bales mistook our ‘Executioner Squad’ as the ones pursuing him? So, he preemptively attacked?”
“I’m more inclined to think that this is vengeance! A provocation!”
Ralph clenched his teeth in anger.
“Dark Knight Bales is powerful and his motives unclear, I’ll request reinforcements from the Judge as soon as possible!”

Dongyang and a group of ten players were meeting up again at Jack’s estate.
They could be said to be enjoying a period of great prestige.
The status as the first batch of superhuman players in the public test made them the talk of the player community. The most popular among them was the independent player Polaris.
He was now truly known as “Brother Northern Star,” adored by a multitude of players.
Doghead Gold and Forget No Taboo were also quite popular, thanks in part to their brief encounters with Polaris in which they had not yet been defeated.
In addition, the player organization Hercules Cult they subsequently established had also gained hundreds of players, among whom about thirty were recommended to join the Iron Fist Gang, diligently grinding levels and waiting for the chance to be promoted to the Circus.
“Is everyone here? Let’s go buy the entrance tickets and start the raid,”
Dongyang checked with the others and spoke.
Everyone agreed and nodded towards him.
The group walked into the first floor of the villa and saw Jack waiting on the sofa.
“Mr. Jack,”
Dongyang greeted him respectfully.
The others also paid their respects, and Chen Lun gave a nod and a smile in response.
“Please, have a seat,”
He said.
“Polaris, you sit over here.”
