I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 520 - 368: Main Story Contraction (Two-in-one)_2

Chapter 520: Chapter 368: Main Story Contraction (Two-in-one)_2

“Considering the current situation, the Red Apple Church has suddenly abandoned many strongholds and concentrated its combat power significantly, while the Blood Abbey’s ‘Ten Cores’ frequently dispatch incarnations to various locations, making it difficult for the Empire’s shelter to cope alone,” the Speaker said gravely.

“Among the Seven Righteous God Churches, only the Sun Church and the Moon Church are actively participating in the suppression. The Constellation Sect and the Madman School remain neutral, while the History and Ritual Association and the Hailing Group are reluctant fighters… Therefore, our pressure will be great, as we need to be responsible for both the Gem State and the Rock State regions,” he continued.

Subsequently, these two state regions were subdivided into ten parts.

The Speaker’s voice continued:

“The Senate’s ten governing officers each need to take charge of one of these battle zones and completely eradicate the Red Calamity!”

“Yes, Mr. Speaker,” they responded in unison.

Each governing officer echoed their agreement.

Chen Lun also agreed aloud.

However, his heart felt somewhat burdened.

‘The main storyline has accelerated again… Originally it had started several months early, and now it has leapt forward over half a year, entering into the final battle phase,’ he thought.

Chen Lun knew this was due to the butterfly effect caused by his own time travel, which gradually magnified the impact on the world line, eventually leading to the current situation.

For instance, in his previous life, there was no “Generous Council.” The addition of this new Righteous God Church must have had a significant impact on the Red Calamity… Perhaps, the sudden changes in the Red Apple Church were related to this!

Fortunately, everything that was happening was identical to his memories, which meant that some crucial pieces of information still held their valuable worth.

The following meeting began to discuss the allocation of the battle zones.

The Speaker and other governing officers did not treat Chen Lun differently because he had only recently assumed office. He was given the same command authority and resource allocation rights; likewise, the difficulty of the battle zone assigned to him was no less challenging than the others.

“Jack, the second battle zone of Rock State will be assigned to you. Any problems?” the Speaker asked with a smile.

Chen Lun glanced at the diagram in the center of the round table and shook his head.

“No problem, Mr. Speaker,” he answered.

The battle zone assigned to him included three main urban areas, encompassing seventy-six cities and hundreds of small towns and villages, among which was one “Abomination Fortress” that the Speaker specifically highlighted. Recently built by the Red Apple Church, this extraordinary marvel was easy to defend but hard to attack and possessed some unknown mysterious methods.

“Well then, each governing officer should lead their council members to commence action immediately… Here is the specific list, which you will keep personally, and it must not be leaked,” said the Speaker, nodding and tapping a metal armrest with his finger.

Suddenly, a black ledger appeared in front of each governing officer.

Chen Lun opened it and quickly scanned through.

Under his command were seven Golden Cup council members, twenty-four Silver Cup council members, and eighty ordinary council members. This was a significant force, now entirely under his command.

At the same time, there were seventeen ‘A Grade Mysterious Objects’ and several dozen ‘B Grade Mysterious Objects’ sealed within the Generous Council, which could be applied for by convening a temporary Senate meeting or by reporting directly to the Speaker. If approved, they could be borrowed and used.

“During your operations, you may choose to recruit independent Transcendents and Transcendent forces as you see fit, without restriction. However, all expenses must be borne by yourselves… The Council has only one requirement: that you successfully complete the mission and thoroughly clean the assigned battle zones,” the Speaker stated flatly.

“Yes, Mr. Speaker,” they responded again.

[Trigger A Grade Mission: Blood War! (Note: This mission deeply impacts the 1.0 version main storyline process!)]

Mission Description: As a newly appointed governing officer of the Generous Council, under the orders of the Sun King Andre, you are to participate in the war against the Red Calamity. And as a provisional governing officer, you are inevitably sent to the frontlines. (Note: Refusing this mission will result in severe consequences! Please decide wisely!)

Mission Requirements: Command your team to eradicate the “Rock State No. 2” battle zone and completely eliminate the forces of the Red Apple Church.

Mission Rewards: 300,000 Experience Points, 50,000 Gold Pounds, 20 Attribute Points, 5 Special Attribute Points, and 10 Regional Renown Points. (Corresponding main storyline Contribution Points will be recorded based on the final result.)

Chen Lun took a deep breath and accepted the mission.

Looking at the panel which displayed the updated mission description now included a progress bar for “Rock State No. 2 battle zone,” currently at zero percent.

‘The war is about to break out…’ he thought somberly.

‘I didn’t expect it to reach the late game phase so quickly, it’s only been half a year since beta testing… Players’ overall strength hasn’t yet reached the upper limit, so they don’t have a decisive impact on the overall situation.’

Chen Lun recalled his past life, where at the end of that version during the Blood War phase, most players had already reached the max level of 30. Although Transcendents were rare, even by selecting one in ten thousand from the entire player base, using the huge base number, there were still forty to fifty thousand of Sequence Nine players.

Relying on them against the Red Apple Church’s high-level combat power was unrealistic, but they were the main force in resisting fallen believers and low-level Transcendent monks.

The current situation was different.

Players lacked nearly a half-year’s development time and could only be forced to serve as cannon fodder. Only a few high-end players could slightly influence the main storyline progression.

What Chen Lun wanted to do was to recruit as many players as possible, not only issuing tasks within the circus for high-level players but also casting a wide net as the Generous Council to gather a large faction of players.
