The Game of Global Mining-Chapter 392 - 310: Extradition to Silver City?

While Chun’s team was steadily pushing forward, the goblin army ahead suddenly retreated, disappearing into the darkness at lightning speed.

Chun was bewildered. They weren’t scorched by fire, right?

But it’s good. With no more monsters blocking the way, we can run forward.

Aileen immediately sent a message: "The siege monsters suddenly stopped attacking the village. They’ve turned to target an adventurer group with tens of thousands of people."

Chun’s heart skipped a beat. What does this mean? No more experience for the China District players? Sending it to the consortium players instead...

That’s too much, isn’t it? But at least the village should be safe now.

Aileen added: "Bilenna is guarding an abandoned tunnel entrance underground in the village. Guess what the biggest gain is?"

Chun laughed: "Advance?"

Aileen laughed: "No, the soul of the Three Sheep Gods that I drained absorbed a large amount of soul power from the battlefield. I will quietly collect more during the chaos, and three new soul servants will be born."

Again with the soul power? Are the siege monsters produced from mining also using it?

Chun felt relieved: "Looks like we don’t plan to return the Three Sheep Gods to the animal welfare organization."

Aileen laughed: "Just not returning them. The church has such a large industry; they don’t care about these three."

Chun reminded: "Be careful to hide and not let anyone discover your actions."

"Got it! Don’t talk to me now; I’m going full caution..." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Just when Chun’s team was about to reach Canyon Village, Chun suddenly received a system prompt — System prompt: Your Sea Soul Personal Guard skill has received contact from Mermaid Helen, please wait...

Chun was stunned. She’s actively contacting me? What’s going on?

And they’re not even by the sea, yet she can still contact him. Her divine power is getting stronger!

Not long after, the connection was established, and Chun heard the mermaid’s voice: "My dear divine envoy, are you busy now?"

Ah! The title changed again, now there’s a "dear" added! What’s the reason? Because I took down Sariel and boosted the friendliness level?

Chun felt delighted and had to flatter her: "Madam, your attitude toward me makes me extremely honored!"

The mermaid laughed: "Ah, did you just kill Sariel?"

Of course! Chun couldn’t miss a chance to be humble: "Actually, it wasn’t just my personal strength but also the power of my partners."

The mermaid asked: "Because you have a Firebird?"

Chun realized something was wrong. Was Sariel using the mermaid’s authority to retaliate against me?

"Yes!"

The mermaid sighed: "Now the whole city is spreading rumors that you are the murderer of the Guardian God. Sariel just came to report to me, saying you have a divine-level Demon Beast, and this can be evidence of the murder of the Black Iron Guardian God. He pleaded with me to enforce the Silver City warrant and extradite you back to Silver City. He’s a Sage with privileges, so I had to make a stance — So, I have two plans: one is to continue with 2 votes supporting and 2 votes opposing, so you’re still fine."

Really can’t underestimate the consortium’s ability to spread rumors across the city!

Chun heard her predicament: "But this makes the Guardian God Council a laughingstock unable to accomplish anything, damaging Madam’s reputation in Black Iron City, and because Madam cannot extradite me, it will harm Silver City’s reputation?"

The mermaid sighed: "So I have a second plan. You go to Silver City prison, which can help me consolidate some reputation. I have some tasks I need you to do there, since I’m constantly monitored by Silver Flower Remia, and I have no confidants around."

I can do something, which means I’ll be promoted!

Chun felt no pressure: "As long as it can consolidate Madam’s reputation and standing, it’s just a bit of hardship. Madam, what do you need me to do? So I can prepare and explain here."

The mermaid coughed: "Well, I haven’t decided yet. But looking at the situation where Black Iron City Church publicly opposes me, I also feel Silver City Church might have similar sentiments."

Uh... it’s good if she hasn’t thought it through.

Going to prison will be like vacationing, otherwise, with the pace of this game, there’s no stopping even for a minute all day! No time for sauna with the internet café owner, let alone visiting home. Speaking of which, the deadline for Xiaoqin’s advice to hide for 7 days is almost up. Suddenly, I really miss Fan these days...

Chun made up his mind: "Then I’ll make a trip to Silver City, but for the first two days, Madam, try not to assign me any tasks, let me appear as if I’m in prison, lest I arouse suspicion."

The mermaid laughed: "Got it! I’ll arrange the voting here."

— System prompt: Sea God’s Personal Guard communication terminated.

Just after hanging up here, another system prompt came—Black Flag Order prompt: You have received a secret directive from the board, would you like to answer?

Ah! Fafnir also wrote in, Chun quickly answered: "Miss, I’m here!"

Fafnir: "Your situation is quite troublesome. The city’s sentiment is surging, the second wave of reporting against you has started. The village chief of North Port Fishing Village received a large amount of rare seafood from the market as a tribute to the Fishman God to cast a vote against you — Don’t return to the city, I have a ship arranged at South Suburb Coast Black Stone Beach to pick you up. Go out to sea to escape the heat, wait until Black Iron City and Silver City reach a reconciliation agreement before returning."

Ah!!

Chun was truly touched! Does this count as seeing true feelings in adversity? They’re mobilizing Black Iron City’s diplomatic power just to protect me!

Fafnir is clearly different from Eve; Eve is straightforward, and the admission cutoff is high, immediately selecting the most trustworthy person, a show of strength.

Fafnir can’t compare with Eve in terms of personal or city strength, so she relies on strategy. Her style with the bankrupt Black Flag Order and Moss immigration is like capitalizing on every opportunity, even the discarded scraps, for maximal benefit. Because of this, I’ve always kept my guard up.

Now that it’s come to this, Chun realized he should be honest too, even quickly brewed a new plan — stage the act in full! Being extradited without resistance would be too fake; escaping at sea and being caught is much more convincing!

"Miss, no need to compromise Black Iron City’s interests and sign an agreement with Silver City. I have significant matters requiring me to be in Silver City prison. I’ll board the boat Miss arranged, but just leave me an empty ship; the goal is to get caught by Silver City, so I can cover the true reason for heading to prison."

Fafnir was surprised: "What important matter requires prison?"

Quite unrelated!

Chun solemnly said: "Miss, I have a secret to tell: Have you dreamt of gathering with the other floral quartet of cities?"

Fafnir was stunned: "This..."

Then she immediately reacted: "Did you hear this from Eve?"

Chun can’t mention the Heroic Spirit Hall matter directly, because that’s a secret between Eve and him. This must rely on Fafnir’s awakening, and as Eve said, knowing the truth, but still perform. If hastily told while Fafnir hasn’t awakened, she might mentally be impacted, making her actions abnormal and unable to act properly.

Chun sidestepped her question: "I go to Silver City prison also to try and contact Silver Flower Remia, to see if she has the same dream."

Fafnir gave a soft laugh: "Understood, I’ll place a token on the ship. Remia might give some face seeing it. But she’s not like Eve, that bookworm. Don’t casually touch her butt, or the church’s penalties will be harsh."

Chun broke into a sweat: "Certainly won’t."
