Chapter 144: Black Messenger Square (Two-in-One)_3
His eyes widened as he saw these people were actually willing to pool funds to help rebuild Bradley Square, which had turned into ruins.
Moreover, as Earl Bradley had been arrested for a serious crime, the square's name also needed to be changed, so they decided to rename the square "Black Messenger Square."
If Chen Lun had seen this document, he wouldn't have been too surprised.
This exactly was what he had written to ask Viscount Pompey to do, and the 16-points region's popularity also began to subtly release a strong influence.
"The matter of Earl Bradley has terrified them; they urgently need to rely on the Mystic Realm to feel a sense of security,"
Mona laughed.
After Ralph had reviewed all the documents, he also generally understood the situation and grasped what she meant.
"Indeed, but that doesn't mean anything,"
He shook his head and sighed.
But quickly, Ralph thought of a question.
"Wait, you just said, the Archbishop Lafa of the Red Apple Church had descended as an Incarnation, ready to sacrifice this city... How was He stopped?!"
Mona placed a photograph on the table, sliding it across to Ralph.
The image showed Chen Lun with wings sprouting from his back, floating in midair.
"It was he who repelled the Incarnation of the Saint, and the civilians, unaware of the truth, called him 'Black Messenger.' That's what the nobles and merchants are planning to rename the rebuilt square after..."
"Hiss..."
Ralph took a deep breath, staring at the man in the photograph.
Beneath that messy black hair, those emotionless vertical pupils.
"Jack Spett..."

A month quickly passed again.
Jack Estate, the third floor of the villa.
Chen Lun stood by the window of his room, playing with a silver coin in his hand.
It was a high-grade token, a Silver Halo Coin, given to him by Rosa before she left.
Aiming at the middle of the silver coin, he flicked it with his finger.
Pop—buzz!
The middle part of the coin began to spin wildly, resembling a silver sphere.
The sound without form scattered outward, and Chen Lun began to narrow his eyes.
Ever since he had placed his Blessing Points on "Nature's Favor," his Insight Attribute had just reached 30 Points.
Even without wearing the Silver Pot, he already possessed the ability to see the Spirit World.
He planned to take this opportunity to observe the Spiritual Realm Messenger of the Silver Dragon Trade Association closely.
In this era, besides those Transcendents who possessed special Mysterious Objects or methods, communication over long distances in a relatively private manner was generally achieved through Spiritual Realm Messengers, transferring each other's letters and items.
The time-space of the Spirit World does not completely coincide with the present world, so traveling in the Spirit World, if one can grasp the specific present-world anchor points, can achieve an effect similar to a "wormhole," allowing for rapid transit between two places.
The high-grade token given to Chen Lun by Rosa was equivalent to a specialized tool for summoning a Messenger.
In his previous life, he had never received such treatment, as it was essentially a "VIP customer service" of the association.
The silver coin between his fingers kept spinning, casting phantoms.
Soon, Chen Lun sensed something.
He lifted his eyelids and looked upward.
Suddenly, a pale blue gap appeared on the ceiling, and a pair of strong arms covered with dark green keratinous scales stretched out from inside, gripping the edges of the gap.

Immediately afterward, a huge crocodile head emerged from it.
Its pair of amber vertical pupils slightly startled.
Below, in the room, a strange man was looking up at it, his gaze curious, seemingly also taking an interested measure...?
