I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 770 - 475 Deadlock_2

Chen Lun fell silent for a few seconds before pleading softly with the princess:

"Princess Anna, could you do me one last favor..."

"Speak, although the operation wasn’t a success, you did indeed help me... As long as it’s within my power, I will help you as much as I can."

Princess Anna nodded gently.

Seeing this, Chen Lun spoke his request in a grave tone:

"I would like to visit Noah in the dungeon."

Anna didn’t respond right away, furrowing her brows in thought before taking a deep breath.

"If it’s just a meeting, I can help you... but it won’t be possible in the next two days, you’ll need to wait."

"Thank you."

Chen Lun took off his hat, expressing his gratitude once again.

Without further small talk, Princess Anna conveyed her message completely and expressed that she needed to return to the Royal Palace, otherwise Prince Dazlert would notice something amiss.

Chen Lun simply nodded silently, got off the carriage with Floey, and watched the princess leave from afar.

"Let’s go back."

He said softly.

Floey complied dutifully, following him as they walked towards the Generous Church District.

Upon returning to the Church District, he didn’t inform the other executives about Noah’s imprisonment, but instead used the Golden Chalice to summon a faceless servant and wrote several letters, instructing messengers to deliver them to the Speaker and several friendly Governing Officers within the Senate.

With no plan at hand and being on his own, he could only seek assistance from the upper echelons of the organization... Chen Lun didn’t expect Speaker Azjiluo to intervene on his behalf, as his influence was not significant enough, and his Affection points were far from adequate.

Chen Lun simply hoped to garner some support to have a greater say in negotiations and secure more time for Noah.

Subsequently, he used the high-level token of the Silver Dragon Trade Association, the Silver Halo Coin, to trigger another special frequency, summoning Rosa’s exclusive Messenger. Chen Lun briefly outlined Noah’s situation in the letter and hoped Rosa could convey this message to the Silver Dragon Witch, Her Majesty.

Involving Noah’s life and death, it was both rational and emotional for Chen Lun to inform his sister and mother... Moreover, if anyone could help save Noah, Her Majesty Blaze would be the best support, with one more Upper Rank Combat Power adding one more voice of authority.

Not only that, but after sending out multiple letters seeking help, Chen Lun drew the curtains of his room, moved furniture such as the sofa and coffee table aside to clear space, then took out various extraordinary materials to lay down two corresponding ritual Arrays on the floor.

In his heart, he started reciting the revered names of "Cat God" Maggie Milna and "The Smiling Jester" Philip, offering his prayers and pleas for a response.

Since it involved the Sun Royal Family and the Church’s forces, Chen Lun hoped to get support from these two powerful individuals.

However, as expected, there was no response from her Majesty Maggie nor Philip. Chen Lun sat back down on the sofa, tiredly watching the dwindling candle flames on the floor, and he could only sigh inwardly. freewebnσvel.cøm

Three days swiftly passed.

That afternoon, having just finished lunch, Chen Lun was sitting in the lobby of the residential area’s apartment building, reading the newspaper.

It was the "Sun Newspaper" Connie had bought, with its headquarters in the prime location of the Upper City District. They primarily reported major news from the Royal City of Kingsberg and surrounding areas.

Chen Lun browsed through the newspaper, his brow slightly furrowed.

Since yesterday, several large-scale accidents had occurred in both the Upper and Lower Districts of the Royal City, from gas explosions to building collapses, and even a food factory fire... The uninformed citizens of the Royal City took these topics as casual chat fodder, but Chen Lun knew they were most likely Prince Dazlert’s cleaning up.

’No matter how deeply hidden the Solar Cross Society is, they ultimately cannot withstand the wrath of the Royal Family... Princess Anna was right; they must have suffered greatly.’

Chen Lun thought to himself.

He sighed softly, put the newspaper down, and closed his eyes to rest on the sofa.

His correspondence from Rosa had already arrived that morning.

The other party indicated that she had already informed her mother of the situation. Through the lines, one could clearly sense her anxiety and nervousness, as she repeatedly inquired Chen Lun for news about Noah.

However, Chen Lun was also unclear about the specifics of Noah’s condition in the Sun Dungeon at the moment. He could only write some comforting words to stabilize Rosa and prevent her from rushing to the Royal City in her impatience.

Based on his understanding of Rosa, if she knew that her brother was imprisoned in the dungeon and might be executed, she would definitely act this way. But now, with the situation in the Royal City being tense, Rosa’s arrival would not help but could even cause unnecessary chaos.

At that moment, Chen Lun heard a slight tremor in his ear.

Even with his eyes closed, he could "see" the faceless servant stepping out of the Spirit World and approaching him to bow.

"Lord Jack, this is a reply from Governing Officer Mulenga..."

The faceless servant handed over the letter on the tray and added:

"He asked me to convey to you that just last week, a senator discovered traces of the Rothfuss Family deep in the Spirit World. Governing Officers Kingsberg, Peggy, Yasmin, and Bindu were commissioned to join in the eradication mission, accompanying Speaker Azjiluo to the Dark World. They are currently not at headquarters... Your letter can only be stored for now until their return to be forwarded."

"I understand," Chen Lun said with a heavy heart, opened his eyes, and took the letter.

He hadn’t expected circumstances to be so coincidental; it was within his expectations for the Cat God Maggie Her Majesty and Philip not to answer the prayers, but it was just at this critical juncture that the high-levels of the Generous Council were collectively out, which seemed like an invisible hand blocking his way out.

However, Chen Lun had already glimpsed his destiny’s track in the Immortal Realm, everything was as normal with no signs of Howard’s intervention...

’If it really was Him, why target Noah? That doesn’t make any sense.’

Chen Lun took a deep breath, broke the seal on the letter, and began to read the contents.

Mulenga clearly expressed his support in the letter but regretfully stated that he had to stay in Gem State at the moment and could not leave, while his Incarnation was also on a mission and unable to rush to the Royal City in time.

Furthermore, He subtly reminded Chen Lun that the matter in the Royal City, specifically Prince Dazlert’s assassination attempt, had already spread, and the other four Governing Officers in the Senate who had a bad relationship with him seemed to be extremely dissatisfied with Chen Lun’s actions in the Royal City.

Governing Officer Houston, in particular, had already set off and was currently on his way to the Royal City. Mulenga warned him to be careful, as that man was likely planning to take advantage of the absence of the Speaker and other Governing Officers to use the fallout between Chen Lun and the Prince as a pretext to ascend to power.

From the beginning, Houston and the other four Governing Officers had coveted the position of the person in charge of the Royal City, and now they finally found an opportunity, they would certainly not let it slip by.

Chen Lun silently put the letter away and reflected for a long time.

His call for help met obstacles, and far from receiving aid, more troubles were looming...

He took out two Gold Pounds and passed them to the faceless servant. After the servant left, Chen Lun himself rose from the sofa, leaning on the Silver Staff as he slowly walked out the door of the apartment.

’Not only do I have to figure out how to rescue Noah, but I also have to deal with the trouble that is Houston... What should I do?’

Chen Lun looked at the bright sky outside but felt a terrible mood.

At that time, Floey, dressed in a black and purple long gown, slowly walked over and quietly hugged him from behind, resting her cheek against his back.

"Don’t worry, everything will be resolved smoothly," she said.

The ethereal and lovely voice floated from behind him.

The oppressed emotions in Chen Lun eased, and he responded:

"Of course."

The two were silent for a few seconds.

Floey continued,

"The Moon Church has made a move... Chief Nun Selma of the Hermitage has come to the Royal City in person, bringing with her seven Nuns from the Bright Moon to enter the Sun Palace."

"Hmm?"

Chen Lun’s eyebrows raised, he gently turned around, and looked at Floey in surprise.

"Besides, a main Priest team from the Constellation Sect also entered the Royal City, and Noah’s mother is among them."

"A turn of events is coming..." Chen Lun murmured.
