I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 674 - 438: Harvest
Chapter 674 -438: Harvest
[Main Quest Completed: The Second Spirit World Investigation Operation!]
[Quest Reward Received: 45W Experience Points, 1000 Gold Pounds, 15 Attribute Points, 5 Special Attribute Points, 5 Regional Popularity, one A-level Merit with the Imperial Judiciary, and Affection from Dazlert!]
Chen Lun glanced briefly at the panel and felt joy in his heart.
At that moment, McCollin spoke to him with earnest seriousness again,
“Jack, this matter has not been made public yet and needs some time to ferment… Prince Dazlert plans to first focus on the western wars. Perhaps only after completely suppressing the Anlong United Kingdom will he officially start the hunt against the polluted insect tide.”
“I understand, sir,”
Chen Lun nodded.
“The western wars will be managed by the military, and our Judiciary is very unlikely to participate. However, behind you is the Righteous God Church… By then, all the Seven Righteous God Churches should be sending clergy to join the expedition. If you do not wish to participate, I can negotiate for you,”
suggested McCollin meaningfully.
Chen Lun understood the deeper implication in his words and shook his head with a smile,
“Thank you for your kindness, Chief McCollin, but as a part of the Empire, I feel honored to fight for it… If the Generous Council sends me, I will have to give it my all.”
McCollin nodded slightly, smiling as he patted Chen Lun’s shoulder.
Suddenly, recalling something, he lamented,
“It’s a pity that those Undead Foreigners suddenly all vanished; if they were still here, many losses in this western war could have been avoided…”
Upon hearing this, Chen Lun involuntarily opened the panel to check the update countdown.
‘Unbeknownst to me, it’s already the end of April, only ten days left until the update, the players should be logging in… The western war is an interim plot of version 2.0, and also a period for their rapid growth. How could it occur without the players?’
He chuckled softly to himself.
‘Moreover, I need them to replenish my Sanity Repository and treasury; it’s about time to prepare.’
The past two months investigating in the Dark World, coupled with witnessing the dark red celestial body at the edge of darkness, had severely depleted his already meager sanity reserve.
Now only a pitiful two to three thousand remained.
Chief McCollin then instructed Chen Lun on a few other matters before letting him leave first.
Chen Lun saluted and took his leave.

When he got down to the third floor of the building, he quietly sat down on the sofa in the rest area, pretending to lie back and rest, but in reality, he was operating the panel, organizing his gains,
‘During this period of investigation in the Dark World, I killed quite a few Didak Bug People along the way, each providing tens of thousands of experience points. Added to the quest rewards, I have already accumulated over 2 million… Time to add some points and level up.’
With a flick of his finger, all the experience points were transferred to [Sequence Five – Juggler LV35], an invisible golden light flickered on his body, instantly advancing him five levels.
[Main Profession Level Up, You feel your body has been enhanced, Life Limit +300, Physical Strength Limit +200, Sanity Value Limit +5, Strength +3, Endurance +3, Agility +5, Intelligence +5!]
[You have gained 5 Skill Points, 5 Attribute Points!]
[Remaining Points on the Panel: Skill Points 42, Attribute Points 20, Special Attribute Points 5, Blessing Points 0]
‘[Juggler] has now reached level 40, 10 levels away from max level, but the required experience points are even higher. Now each level up requires 450,000 experience points, roughly 5 million experience points to fill this massive gap.’
Chen Lun exhaled, feeling a bit of a headache.
As the level continued to rise, so did the required experience points. Even though his efficiency in farming experience had improved, the overall pace of leveling had slowed down.
It seems difficult to replicate the initial peak promotion experience.
[Basic Attributes: Strength 180, Agility 183, Endurance 180, Intelligence 201, Faith 10]
[Special Attributes: Charm 68, Willpower 82, Insight 71, Luck 10]
Considering the attribute threshold of 150 points for Sequence Five, Chen Lun’s panel attributes had already far exceeded it, so he wasn’t planning on using his hard-earned Attribute Points.
After some thought, he turned off the panel, stood up from the sofa, and walked towards the ‘Merit Exchange Window’ at the corner, where he found the old military supply officer from before.
“Hey good day, Lord Jack; what do you need?”
The old man adjusted his beret, lit a cigarette, and smiling, handed over the list.
Chen Lun already had plans in mind; he requested a dip pen from the supply officer, dipped it in the large ink bottle on the adjacent table, and promptly circled several items on the list.
“‘Chasing Knowledge: Lemoyne’s 39th Attempt,’ exchange cost one B-level Merit, ‘True Sight Potion Third Edition Formula,’ exchange cost one B-level Merit, ‘Anita Language Manual,’ exchange cost one C-level Merit, ‘Secrets of the Ancient Wizard,’ exchange cost one C-level Merit, ‘Mystic Book Notes Part Two, Patterns and Symbols,’ exchange cost one C-level Merit…”
The old man picked up the list and read aloud the items Chen Lun had circled.
He exhaled a cloud of smoke and chuckled,
“Lord Jack must indeed be a scholar thirsty for knowledge, almost all the items you chose are mystic books… These five items will collectively require two B-level Merits and three C-level Merits.”
“Please check my file, it should have a record of my merits,”
Chen Lun said with a light laugh, handing back the dip pen.
