"It's indeed a good compensation plan. After all, Governor Houston's current progress is the worst among us..."
Archon Bindu smiled.
"Don't worry, Jack has no intention of stealing the credit. He is just trying to help."
"unnecessary."
Houston said indifferently.
At this time, the Speaker, who had been sitting quietly in the high seat at the back, suddenly spoke:
"Just do what Jack says."
"speaker?"
The four Houston governors frowned slightly and turned to look.
Even Mulenga and the others were surprised. They had only been talking nonsense, but they had not expected the Speaker to actually agree. Given Houston's proud character, there was no way he would accept such a thing.
"Put this aside for now. I have something I need to tell you."
The Speaker said calmly.
"Yes, Speaker, please go ahead."
The consuls said respectfully.
Azgiero nodded and continued:
"Governor Houston, the reason why Jack trespassed into the war zone you are in charge of is actually because of my order..."
“?!”
The brows of the four Houston people deepened.
"I've told you about the 'Scarlet Ceremony' before. There are 25 ritual fortresses scattered across the empire, and one of the three major base fortresses is in the Gem State... Jack's move is actually a trap set for Rafa, one of the ten core members of the Scarlet Monastery."
The Speaker smiled.
"She was the caretaker of that Bastion Fortress, and now she has fallen."
"… "
Mulenga and others had already known the news in advance, so they were not very surprised.
But the four Houstons fell silent.
A trap set by Jack
What on earth did he do to murder a Saint who was at the same Sequence 4 level as himself? !
Moreover, he was a ten-core level saint from the Scarlet Monastery, and he died just like that!
This news shocked the four consuls.
“Now that Rafa is dead, now is the best time to attack the Gemstone Fortress… Starting tomorrow, Mulenga, Ginsberg, Peggy, Bindu, Yasmin, and Jack, the six of you will attack together and destroy the fortress as quickly as possible!”
The Speaker said slowly.
"The battle zone originally in charge of the five men of Mulenga will be temporarily handed over to Houston, Malaik, Mead, and Landa. Jack can let the avatar lead the team to support you."
"this… ?!"
Houston and others looked reluctant.
The hot-tempered Malak even stood up and bluntly expressed his disagreement with the decision.
"It's no use for you to disagree, Malak."
Mulenga had a faint smile on his face.
"We have six votes..."
Houston and others were suddenly speechless.
However, Mulenga had one more thing to say.
That is, the information about the Red Apple Church was almost presented by Jack alone, and he played an indispensable role in the killing of Rafa this time... The Speaker had to refer to his opinion on the selection of people to attack the Base Fortress.
These are things that the Houston Four are powerless to change.
Who said Jack is not from their side...
For the top leaders, intelligence is not something that they care too much about the source of, but only its authenticity. And now the Sun Church has confirmed the existence of several node fortresses through intelligence, which indirectly proves the authenticity of the "Scarlet Festival" ceremony.
Therefore, Jack's contribution to this bloody battle was extremely huge.
It is not an exaggeration to call him a great contributor!
If the Houston Four had been smarter, they wouldn't have easily provoked Jack at this time.
"Yes, Speaker, we understand."
Landa silently pulled Malay back to his seat, turned and bowed to Azgierro.
The Speaker nodded and his eyes returned to Chen Lun.
"Jack, is there anything else you want to say?"
At this time, Chen Lun first smiled and gestured to the Speaker, then stood up and said to Houston and other governors in a gentle tone:
"Please rest assured, the four Archons. I will lead a large army of undead strangers to help you suppress the Red Scourge as soon as possible... I was able to clear the war zone so quickly thanks to them."
He spread his hands.
"Believe me, there will be more Undead Strangers dispatched this time. Even though the four Archons are responsible for five more battle zones, the advancement efficiency will only be faster!"
The four Houston people looked at each other, each with a blank expression on their face.
They were in a very bad mood at the moment, but due to the situation, the female governor Landa could only say calmly:
"In that case, let's wait and see."
Chen Lun touched his chest and saluted very gentlemanly, ending the conversation.

"Haha... I was right! Jack has big moves in store!"
In the open space of the Peacock City Winery, Dongyang whispered to Chenxi, Polaris and other senior players.
They were gathered here at the moment, surrounded by many other elite players from the circus, and it looked like there were at least two or three hundred people present. Flo Yin, wearing a black dress, stood at the front of the crowd, announcing something to the players.
After listening for a while, Polaris suddenly spoke:
"According to what Miss Floin said, we will go to other war zones to help next."
"Um."
Dongyang nodded and glanced at the excited players.
"Through this bloody campaign, my personal contribution to the main storyline has increased more than ten times, and my accumulated experience points have exceeded 10,000. I also received a lot of mysterious substances and gold pounds as rewards... From this, we can see that players who participated in the campaign have more or less received good benefits, which are not comparable to the rewards of ordinary small tasks."
He shared his analysis with everyone.
"I don't know how many players missed the previous battles, and this second round of battles is obviously larger in scale. The remaining nine battle zones in Yanbang and Baoshibang are our next destinations. Just think about it, and you can imagine how many people will participate by then... I estimate at least 300,000!"
"You're too conservative. I think it could be more than 500,000... We're already at the end of the version. When this war is over, version 1.0 'Scarlet Festival' should also be over."
Goutoujin shook his head and said.
"The video on the forum's hot list has been viewed over 100 million times. Players in these two states must know Jack's influence..."
"Look at this, it's such a grand occasion. This is the first time we have seen such a grand occasion after playing for so long..."
Dongyang had a smile on his face.
"To be honest, I'm really looking forward to it!"

Three days later.
The Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce suddenly expanded its recruitment scale, openly recruiting "immortal strangers" from more than 150 non-occupied cities in Rock State and Gem State to participate in the major battle against the Red Apple Church.
The news spread from one player to ten players, and from ten to a hundred players. Local and foreign players all flocked to the game just to join Jack's team and participate in the main quest of the version.
Soon, with the addition of the players originally under Chen Lun, the number easily exceeded 300,000.
And this number is still increasing at an exaggerated rate.
Chen Lun left thirty-two brand new black crystal dolls in the winery and worked with Connie to manufacture weapons and ammunition. Even so, it could not keep up with the players' needs.
A steady stream of flintlock rifles and black crystal ammunition were packed and boxed, hauled away by the staff of the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce, and even transported through the spirit world to the branches in the two state cities before being sold to the players.
Chen Lun simply gave 10% of the profits to the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce, which made the Chamber of Commerce more motivated and all the staff worked at full capacity. Even Rosa personally made suggestions for this, making the whole process more concise and smooth.
Chen Lun divided his men into two groups.
One group was led by the fraud incarnation, four gold cup councillors, and 150,000 players to the nearest "Yanbang No. 1" war zone. The other group was led by Fuluo Yin and the remaining troops to the "Yanbang No. 3" war zone.
These two war zones originally belonged to Governors Yasmin and Bindu, but are now under the charge of Governor Randa. Chen Lun does not care about the attitudes of Houston and the others, he only wants to eliminate the red disaster as quickly as possible.
His real body, along with the incarnations of five archons including Mulenga Ginsberg, went to the Lantern City, a main city in the deepest part of the Gem State.
The "Base Fortress" that Rafa is responsible for guarding is here!
Woo!
The cold wind was blowing violently, and six gray-robed figures were already standing on the wall of Dengcao City.
The surroundings were covered in frost and ruins, with no sign of any living person.
Strange prayers and howls could be heard from the city at all times. Further away, a red fortress stood behind the church area.
“This is it.”
Mulenga spoke slowly.
Bindu on the side smiled and raised her hand, and countless shadows returned to her palm from all directions.
"In addition to the wandering fallen believers, there are only six teams of low-level priests scattered throughout the city, totaling 87 people... The rest of the high-level combat forces are concentrated in the church area and the fortress."
Bindu felt it and conveyed the information he got to everyone.
"However, it is worth noting that there is another force guarding the periphery of the cathedral area. Although it is only a rough perception, it can be confirmed that they are extraordinary people belonging to the same flesh and blood faction... I suspect they are from the 'End Chrysalis'."
"The Chrysalis of the End? How did they get involved with the Red Apple Church?"
Yasmine frowned slightly.
Chen Lun listened at the side and recalled this extraordinary force that had never appeared in his previous life. He had had a conflict with them before. He learned from a book that this was a cult organization that believed in Ms. Dark.
At the same time, I also learned the legend of the Three Ladies of Sorrow.
"Jack, I'll leave the Chrysalis of the End to you, how do you think?"
The tall Ginsburg looked down at him.
"Mulenga and I will attack the church area directly from the front, while Peggy and Yasmin will go around to the back. Bindu will hide in the dark to support us and guard against the fortress's reaction... After clearing out the defensive forces in front as quickly as possible, we will attack the fortress together."
“This is a more stable solution.”
Peggy nodded and said.
"But we must be on guard at all times. After all, it has been so many days since Rafa's death. The Red Apple Church will not be unprepared."
"Um."
The others nodded in agreement.
"There is no time to lose, let's get started now."
"Walk!"
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The six figures disappeared at the same time.
Not long after, violent explosions occurred in several warehouses outside the church area!
Boom!
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!
”
"There's an intruder!"
Many surviving low-level extraordinary people ran out of the warehouse, shouting loudly.
However, they were shocked to find that several tall buildings in the church area behind them had also collapsed, and four shadow curtains tens or hundreds of meters long rose from the ground, like four black knives inserted into a cake!
Chen Lun shuttled between warehouses with a sullen face. His right arm transformed into a group of pale snakes to form a huge battering ram. When he saw the members of the Chrysalis of the End, he teleported over without saying a word and smashed them down!
Boom!
Huge pits appeared one after another, and the earth shook.
Any transcendent below Sequence Five would be smashed to death by him in just one encounter, without exception!
In the face of that extremely fast speed and extremely fierce power, there is no fancy means to evade it... This is a crushing victory at the level of strength, a one-sided massacre!
After killing dozens of people, Chen Lun finally met a man who seemed to be a high-ranking official of the End of the Chrysalis.
The opponent was a Sequence Five - Bone Man, with sharp bone blades exposed on the outside of his arms, and a long bone tail growing out from his back, with a conical bone spur like a gun head at the tip.
'If one hammer doesn't kill him, then use two hammers...'
Chen Lun sneered.
He flashed forward and exchanged a few moves with the opponent, making a loud bang.
Then, using teleportation and a split arm, he planted the "snake parasite" on the man through multitasking, which detonated on the spot.
"ah!
”
The man screamed, and snakes grew all over his body. Chen Lun came to his head again and smashed down with a hammer. The opponent couldn't dodge in time, and his right leg was smashed into mud on the spot!
Before he had time to grow new legs, Chen Lun's attack came again. This time, the huge and ferocious "ball of pale snakes" hit him directly on the head!
winter!
Bones, blood and flesh flew everywhere.
This person exploded directly!
Compared with other methods, the extraordinary people of the flesh and blood faction do not have so many cunning means. They mainly rely on physical fitness to fight. Once they encounter a more brutal opponent like Chen Lun, they are completely helpless.
Chen Lun stepped on the air, waited silently for a moment, took away the mysterious substance left in the pit, and continued killing.
Ten minutes later.
The noise inside the church area gradually died down, and Chen Lun completely eliminated the forces of the Chrysalis of the End on the periphery.
At this time.
A prompt box suddenly popped up on Chen Lun's panel—
Lady Gloomy Judelia's favorability towards you has increased! Currently it is Friendly!
"Um?!"
He couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
