Chapter 421： Version 2.0 main task

Chapter 421 Version 2.0 main task

After the dinner portion of the dinner.

The prince ordered people to evacuate the dining table, got up and walked to the stage, took the microphone, and kindly invited all the guests present to dance in the banquet hall.

Most of the guests who came to the royal dinner had their female companions, which was also one of the main procedures of the banquet. However, the senior officials of the shelter and the Orthodox Church did not participate. They just sat on the side of the banquet hall and exchanged something in a low voice.

The court musicians on the stage began to play cheerful and melodious tunes, and the dignitaries naturally led their female companions to the center of the banquet hall, dancing gracefully.

"Want to dance to a song, Floy?"

Chen Lun stood outside the dance floor and asked the girl beside him.

"Sure, I'd love to."

Floy smiled, and offered her hand.

Chen Lun dragged her slowly onto the dance floor, and danced along with the melody.

"The duke seems to be hostile to you."

Floy put her left hand on Chen Lun's shoulder, and said in a low voice as she leaned her head closer.

"It's okay, don't worry about him."

Chen Lun just smiled lightly.

He put his arms around Floyd's waist, and began to spin on the beat.

Seeing this, Froy stopped continuing this topic, but devoted herself fully to the dance with the man in front of her. The two once danced together in the moonlight, but she was blind at the time and could not see the wonderful scene.

Now she wants to take a good look at each other and keep this moment in her heart.

Chen Lun sensed Floyd's calm but fiery eyes, so he lowered his gaze to meet her. The two looked at each other and smiled.

It was a relaxed and joyful mood with hidden affection.

On the main seat of the banquet hall, the prince and princess are sitting there.

Many young nobles looked at Princess Anna frequently, but hesitated to move forward. After several hesitations, they just sighed secretly.

The prince had a smile on his face, turned his head slightly and whispered to his sister Anna:

"Why don't you give those young talents some opportunities?"

"It's just some trash who has inherited the glory of their ancestors. It's better to find a pig to dance with them."

Anna said lightly.

Prince Dazlet burst out laughing, which aroused the confusion of the dignitaries and attendants.

"Speaking of which, it is indeed difficult to find a suitable candidate among the guests present... the younger generation of nobles, tsk tsk... it's a bit bad."

The prince rubbed his chin and commented.

He raised his finger and pointed at a pair of handsome men and beautiful women on the dance floor.

"How's Jack?"

Anna looked at the young man in the black hat. The tall and slender figure of the latter moved gracefully and calmly on the dance floor, and the dance with the girl in the purple skirt was extremely beautiful.

"He can...but he already has a girlfriend."

Anna said calmly.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a dance."

Prince laughed.

"Do you want me to help you and ask him, you are too boring sitting here."

"You know it's boring, brother."

Anna said.

"But forget it, it is a bit embarrassing for members of the royal family to take the initiative to invite others to dance together."

As she spoke, she took out the gift she had just received from Jack on the dining table, that is, the "beauty-retaining potion".

Princess Anna uncorked the bottle without hesitation, and drank it under her brother's surprised gaze.

"How is it, Anna, is it as amazing as Jack said?"

Prince asked curiously.

"Ok…"

The princess pondered, feeling the effect of the potion silently.

She suddenly chuckled.

"Interesting stuff."

"Ok?"

The prince showed a puzzled look.

Princess Anna turned her head to look at her brother, and stretched out her hand.

"Brother, if you don't want that potion, give it to me."

"Haha...it seems to be a good thing that has an effect."

Prince Dazlet laughed.

He took out his own potion, thought for a while, and gently put it in his sister's hand.

"Okay, okay, since Anna wants it, I'll give it to you."

The prince said dotingly, and raised his hand to stroke his sister's head, but Anna turned her head away.

"thanks."

Princess Anna thanked her lightly, and then continued to uncork the bottle and take the medicine.

The prince shook his head helplessly when he saw his sister's cold expression.

"It's also my brother, but your attitude towards me is far worse... Anna."

he whispered.

Princess Anna frowned when she heard this, and her fingers tightened tightly on the medicine bottle.

"Don't forget what your father said, don't mention that sinner again..."

She said indifferently.

"uh-huh."

The prince shrugged nonchalantly, and continued to cast his eyes on the dance floor, admiring the dancing postures of the crowd, tapping his fingers on the handrail following the rhythm.

Only Princess Anna beside him lowered her eyes expressionlessly.

After dancing to a song with Floyd, Chen Lun withdrew from the dance floor to rest.

He called the attendant in a gentlemanly manner, ordered a glass of juice and handed it to Floyd.

"thanks."

She smiled and took a sip.

Immediately handed back the remaining half glass of juice.

"Would you like some drink too?"

Chen Lun was a little surprised, and immediately smiled.

"certainly."

He took it without hesitation and took a sip.

Floy looked at his actions, and the corner of her mouth smiled even wider.

Intimate relationships often start with sharing a cup.

After a while.

The dance session is over.

The dinner party has also come to an end.

Chen Lun was about to leave with Floyd, but was stopped by a royal steward who whispered to him:

"Mr. Jack, the prince still has secret matters to explain, please stay."

"Secret matters?"

Chen Lun frowned.

"Yes, the senior officials of the shelter and the members of the Imperial Jury will participate, please follow me."

The steward raised his hand to feign one side.

Chen Lun turned his head and glanced at Floyd.

"You wait for me here."

"Ok."

Floy nodded, and obediently sat back on the chair.

Chen Lun followed the steward and walked towards the exit of the banquet hall. Looking back, the guests had left one after another, and the prince, princess and many high-level officials were gone.

Looking back, he continued to walk forward, and the steward led him to the other side of the Sun Palace, where there was a meeting hall.

The senior officials of the asylum and the imperial jury are here, and the new members of the jury who entered in the same batch as Chen Lun were also brought in by the steward.

After waiting for a while, the staff arrived, and the prince slowly stood up and looked at everyone.

"Everyone, taking this opportunity, I called everyone to announce something."

His expression became slightly serious.

"Information came from the shelters in various places that there have been twelve 'spiritual turmoil' in the empire. This has been discovered. According to inference, at least more than fifty such passages have been opened. The pollution in the world has spread to the present world, and the situation is very serious..."

Everyone present had different expressions, but most of them frowned slightly, obviously aware of the seriousness of this matter.

The "spiritual turbulence" that the prince said is actually a variant of the "spiritual rift". It is also something that ordinary people cannot perceive. Only when the insight reaches a certain level can they see it. .

But the difference between "spiritual turbulence" and "spiritual rift" is that it is uncontrollable.

Spiritual creatures generally do not appear in this world, and even if they do, they will be detected and suppressed by shelters immediately. Of course, such cases are rare, because spiritual creatures are intelligent and know that this world is dangerous for them .

However, "spiritual turbulence" will force some spirit world creatures to be thrown into the present world, most of which are polluting creatures. These monsters have no intelligence and are powerful, which will cause terrible damage to the stability of the present world.

"I will carry out the will of my father and officially launch the second phase of the 'Spirit World Investigation Plan' here, with the purpose of investigating the truth of the turmoil in the spirit world and annihilating the danger. The specific candidates are as follows..."

The prince spoke slowly, and read out a series of names, all of whom were members of the imperial jury, including Chen Lun.

A total of more than 80 people were divided into nine groups and carried out at the same time, corresponding to the nine presiding judges, each leading a group.

"Compared to the first batch of United Church of the Seven Gods members, this time only the Imperial Jury went alone. I don't need to say the reason, you should be able to think of it..."

Prince Dazlet shook his head.

"The churches of the Seven Gods are not in harmony. Even if they don't expect to work together, there will still be a phenomenon of holding each other back. In the first phase, many extraordinary people were killed, but the harvest was very little."

He put his hands behind his back, but his young appearance exuded the temperament of a king. He raised his head and smiled faintly:

"I believe that only the Imperial Jury is capable of completing this task... All members involved in the operation can apply to view the dossier of the first phase of the plan, but this time I hope to hear exact clues and valuable information."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Prince."

The members of the imperial jury stood up one after another, touching their chests and saluted Dazlet.

【Trigger the main task: the second phase of the investigation of the spiritual world! 】

Mission description: The empire found that the turmoil in the spiritual world was becoming more and more serious, so it planned to send extraordinary people to investigate. Prince Dazlet summoned the members of the imperial jury to express his hope.

As a new member of the Imperial Jury, you are on the action list. (Note: Refusing the task will have serious consequences!)

Mission Objective: Investigate the causes and truth of the turmoil in the spirit world.

Mission rewards: 450,000 experience points, 1000 gold pounds, 15 attribute points, 5 special attribute points, 5 regional popularity, one A-level meritorious service of the Imperial Jury, Dazlet's favorability, and unknown rewards.

'main mission? So the action I am participating in now is equivalent to the warm-up before version 2.0... After the version update is over, when the players go online, things will become clear. A tide of pollution pouring out of the dark world. '

Chen Lun thought to himself.

‘Accept the task. '

He accepted the task without the slightest hesitation.

At the same time, Chen Lun thought of another thing.

'I remember that Mr. Byers and his lover Youlan participated in the first phase of the investigation of the spiritual world, and Youlan also died in that operation, which led to a series of subsequent tragedies...'

He sighed secretly.

At the same time, Chen Lun also saw the shadow of version 2.0 of his previous life from this action introduction... He still remembered that the name of that version was "Dark Recovery". Unknowable changes have taken place in the dark world of the world, resulting in a blowout of polluting organisms, spreading from the third layer to the second layer, and then spreading from the shallow layer to the present world, which finally seriously affected the safety of the empire.

"The next specific action plan will be formulated by the nine chief judges. The best time to start is within a few days, so don't delay too long."

The prince ordered.

The nine presiding judges nodded to express their understanding.

At this time, one of the middle-aged men in military uniform with medals on his chest stood up and said to Chen Lun and the other members of the imperial jury present:

"You guys come with me."

Chen Lun had already known the identity of the middle-aged man in front of him through the introduction of the steward before, and he was his immediate superior in the imperial jury, Presiding Judge McCawlane.

A powerful and established official high-ranking person.

"Yes, Mr. McCawlane."

Chen Lun lowered his head slightly, and followed behind McCawlin with seven other men and women, and walked into one of the secret rooms in the conference hall.

Besides them, the rest of the presiding judges did the same. They called the members involved in the operation and walked into a secret room for planning and deployment.

Secret room.

Mecoxlane deftly pressed the light switch on the wall, and the chandelier on the ceiling immediately lit up, illuminating the round table and a circle of chairs below.

"sit down."

He said softly, and he sat on the main seat.

After everyone was seated, Mecoxlane took out a thick file, put it on the table, and tapped it with his fingers.

"The last investigative action dossier is here, so you don't need to apply for it... In fact, there are not many valuable contents, because at that time, the people of the Church of the Seven Gods only advanced to the third level of the spiritual world, and the conclusions they came to were consistent. , that is, the source of pollution is the deeper 'dark world'."

Mecoxlane's expression was very calm, and his majestic gaze swept over everyone.

"So your next mission goal is very clear, that is to go through the spirit world, reach the deepest 'dark world', and go there to find the truth about pollution."

He held out an index finger.

"I only have one request for you, and that is to try to come back alive, can you do it?"

Presiding Judge McCaw Lane showed a slight smile.

Everyone suddenly felt a feeling of being cared and loved, and couldn't help feeling warm in their hearts.

"We will work hard to complete the mission and come back alive, sir."

A female member nodded solemnly.

"Ok."

McCollane nodded.

Immediately afterwards He said:

"This operation is divided into nine groups, and we are the first group. As the presiding judge, I have other important matters to take care of, so I will not personally participate in the investigation process... You are all middle-sequence Transcendents Elite, I believe you can do well."

Mecoxlane looked at Chen Lun.

"Jack will be the captain of this operation. You need to follow his command throughout the whole process, and you must not make arbitrary decisions."

Chen Lun was a little surprised, but still nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Presiding Judge McCaw Lane."

Hearing the appointment of the presiding judge, several of the members frowned slightly.

Jack, as a newly joined member of the jury, immediately served as the captain, which made the old members a little dissatisfied.

"Sir, but..."

A male member speaks.

Mecoxlane interrupted him directly, with a serious face.

"This is an order, there is no room for negotiation... As the elite selected by the empire, you should be very clear that the strength of the mysterious field is the most respected. Jack's strength is comparable to that of the Unusual Sequence Five. The dark world is full of dangers. Let him lead the team. Responsible to you."

Several unconvinced members took a deep breath, and finally responded with a deep voice.

"We know, sir."

They looked at the future captain Jack again, only to find that he only responded with a polite smile.

"Okay, let's end the meeting."

Mecoxlane stood up.

"Today and tomorrow, you go to the jury station to prepare, and leave at ten o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow."

"Yes, sir!"
