I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 574 - 398 Priest Jack
Chapter 574: Chapter 398 Priest Jack
Chapter 574 -398 Priest Jack
The upper structure of the Pearl Barmogo was quite complete; in addition to various cabins, there was also a large dining hall and an opera house among the entertainment areas, and on the deck were numerous umbrellas for the gentlemen and ladies to sit and chat leisurely.
In contrast, the lower storage area stored coal and a small amount of cargo, and naturally, the cramped, dirty, and unpleasant lower-class cabins for ordinary passengers were also located there. A lower-class cabin ticket for 60 Silver Ducats only afforded such conditions.
Unlike the upper-class gentlemen and ladies who could dine in the large dining hall three times a day and even arrange for personal delivery, these ordinary passengers had to bring their own food and water or spend money to purchase them from the stewards. In short, the lower-class cabins were just a cramped place to stay, and the Pearl Barmogo wouldn’t pay much attention to them.
Chen Lun led his team’s executives to the front of two special-class cabins.
As they entered, they were greeted by a refreshing fragrance, obviously due to some kind of perfume.
The rooms were spacious and bright, with large glass windows that allowed for good lighting. The tables, chairs, sofas, and beds were all tidy and clean, seemingly made of high-quality materials.
“Todd does get things done; these two special-class cabins are enough for us to fit in,” Chen Lun remarked with a laugh, leaning on his Silver Staff.
He then turned to look at everyone.
“Floey, Maggie, and Connie can stay here; the other gentlemen will have to squeeze a bit and go to another special-class cabin.”
“Yes, Mr. Jack.”
“No problem, Leader.”
The circus executives responded one after another.
After everyone had settled their luggage, Chen Lun led them to the large dining hall for a meal.
In the vast dining hall, numerous gentlemen and ladies were already seated and dining. On both sides of the dining hall were seven or eight square long tables, piled with various kinds of food and drinks, including liquor, all for the guests to help themselves to.
Servants in white uniforms bustled about, either replenishing food with carts or delivering tobacco and drinks to the guests, all in a hurry.
Golov found seats for everyone and respectfully pulled out a chair for Chen Lun.
“Leader, please have a seat.”
“Thank you.”
Chen Lun nodded and slowly sat down.
Once everyone was seated, Chen Lun stopped a waiter and asked him to bring over some food and drinks.
“Do you have any special needs? Sir?” the waiter inquired as he took out a small notebook, seemingly ready to jot down notes.
“Some beef! Steak or fried beef meatballs are fine! And bring a bottle of red wine!” Maggie quickly said.
The waiter swiftly took notes, while others stated their preferences.
The waiter then departed and, in no time, returned with a cart, setting personally the ordered food and drinks on the table.
“Ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy… If there is anything else you need, feel free to call me,” the waiter said while bowing with a hand to his chest.
Chen Lun gestured, and Golov, understanding his intent, took out four or five Silver Ducats and handed them to the waiter as a tip.
“Thank you, generous sir,” the waiter expressed with joy.
After he left, Maggie tasted a bite and then shook her head in disappointment.
“Hmm… It’s not as delicious as Miss Floey’s cooking.”
“I’ve heard the chef hired on this cruise comes from a famous chef in the north. I think it’s already very good,” Noah commented.
“But indeed, it can’t compare to Miss Floey’s food.”
“Thank you for the compliments,” Floey said with a slight smile, trying a bit of the vegetable salad before speaking.
“Mr. Jack, have you ever been to the Royal City?” Connie suddenly asked Chen Lun.
Chen Lun looked at her and put down his knife, wiping his mouth with a napkin.
The food indeed wasn’t as tasty as Floey’s cooking.
“I haven’t,” Chen Lun shook his head.
He had been there in his previous life but only for a few weeks, so he wasn’t very familiar with the place.
“I haven’t either. I wonder what Bixie Crost is like… After all, it’s the Royal City of the Tresor Empire, the heartland where the Sun Royal Family resides. It must be very prosperous, right?” Maggie said.
The other executives also voiced their thoughts, joining the discussion on this topic.
But without exception, none of them had ever been to the Royal City.
Their feelings towards it were a mix of curiosity and anticipation.
“The prosperity of the Royal City is beyond doubt, as it is the capital of the Empire… However, not only are there branches of the Seven Righteous God Churches, but also shelters and the Royal City Guard watching over it twenty-four hours a day. Once we arrive in the Royal City, it’s best to keep a low profile,” Chen Lun advised slowly.
“Yes, Mr. Jack,” the executives replied.
After dinner, everyone returned to their cabins to rest, while Chen Lun went alone to the deck for some fresh air.

By this time, the sky had darkened, the sunset had completely sunk into the horizon, and the heavens were covered by nightfall.
Whoo!
The cruise ship sounded its whistle, followed by the ringing of bells, announcing that the Pearl Barmogo had officially set sail.
Chen Lun leaned against the railing, feeling the sea breeze coming at him, watching the scenery of the eastern dock of Peacock City gradually recede, with a complicated heart.
He was uncertain what would happen during the upcoming trip to the Royal City, but several divinations hinted that it would not go smoothly.
‘There are several purposes for this trip… First, disembark at Orange-Red Gulf Bay and take the opportunity to complete the task of delivering the message to Meteor Tower. Second, after reaching the Royal City, take charge at the branch of the Generous Council and arrange things properly. Third, meet with the Prince and join the Imperial Judgement Group… Well, strive to get everything settled in these three months before the version update.’
