Sir, this is not how bad women are used.

Normally, dreams about special experiences are about women with forbidden powers, but the power of the Dragonborn is too stable.

Every time you meet the Dragon Witch, there are no twists and turns, and you can directly see her "old lady".

Tiffany sighed deeply. Her son had also reached a place where she could not interfere. She stroked Chu Yan's face and said:

"So you suddenly reported recovery tonight. You probably wanted to sneak out for a walk, right?"

It was really impossible to hide it from her. Chu Yan was a little used to the feeling of being seen naked by his mother, and nodded frankly:

"Yes, I want to walk around. I've been stuck in the house for too long. I feel like my bones are all loose. And I won't walk around for too long."

"Okay, you have to come back after walking around for a while. Don't make me go to Evelyn's place to catch you back."

"Ah."

With Tiffany's promise, Chu Yan was finally able to go out for a walk. He felt like a child who was "hardly allowed by his mother to go out and play."

However, after learning of his plan to go out late at night, Eve, who had just finished taking a shower, immediately changed into a secretary uniform and followed him.

*

Walking in the Babel city area at night, Chu Yan breathed in the cool evening air for the first time in a long time.

There is still a clear impression of [Norgma City] in my mind, especially

514

When flying on the shadow of the ancient dragon, every corner of the magnificent city-state was imprinted in my mind.

Now standing in the familiar Babel city area again, the sense of dislocation is particularly strong.

"It feels like a different world..." he couldn't help but say after taking a leisurely stroll for a while.

"Yes. Counting the ten days that you were unconscious on Miss Shanuoya's body and the ten days of recovery afterwards, you have not left the station for nearly a month. The farthest you have moved during this period was to visit Madam Afaline's mansion."

The secretary was following nearby and gave a report out of the blue.

It seems like it has been almost a month. No wonder it feels like a long time has passed. Chu Yan scratched his head in confusion:

"Speaking of which, what did I do before I fell into a coma?"

Miss Eve continued to play the role of a professional secretary and asked calmly, "Master, do you want to confirm external affairs or internal affairs?"

Chu Yan really couldn't remember much. Not to mention the impact of the damage to his soul, just the deep thinking about how to break the impasse in his dream occupied all his thoughts.

"Let's talk about it. My brain isn't working well anymore. I need to sort it out."

"For internal affairs, you asked Miss Shanoya to change into a maid uniform before you passed out on her!"

"..." Chu Yan blinked, feeling a little embarrassed.

"As for external affairs, you just received the projection magic stone from President Zhilan's maid and had a conversation with President Zhilan. Before that, you solved the problem of the mole party and handed it over to the church to deal with it thoroughly."

"Oh, now I remember, there seems to be such a thing!"

Chu Yan finally recovered some of his memories, but he had to admit that the aftereffects were quite strong. He felt as if his will had been sucked away. It was time to cheer up.

Set a bottom line for yourself. From today on, you will no longer suck mommies. You have to find yourself again!

"So, has anything happened in the past half month? In the church and the Adventurer's Guild?"

Eve might have had some personal feelings when answering the previous question, but now that she was really getting back to business, she reported neatly:

"Nothing major has happened. Basically, everything is continuing at the same pace as a while ago. The exploration commissions from the Adventurer's Guild are continuing, and the pace is accelerating. The church has also invested funds and resources to support and encourage people from all sides to enter the tower to explore the map."

This result was in line with Chu Yan's expectations and would not cause him to miss any important events.

Even if he had not been in seclusion for nearly a month, under normal circumstances, he would have to stay at the base every day, waiting for some things to progress, which could be called garbage time.

At most, it's just to stretch my muscles and find a few monster ruins in the tower to practice.

"Eve, you just said that the church has invested resources. What resources?"

"The church's combat skills, blessing arts, and other things, as well as some weapons and equipment that the church had confiscated in the past, will also be given out as rewards."

Eve had done some research in this regard. When the church first came up with this initiative a while ago, she went to learn more about it.

Basically, based on the exploration commission of the Adventurer's Guild, a very high exploration goal is set, which is based on the cycle of every Sunday. As long as someone achieves this goal, they can go to the church to receive a "Gospel Ticket".

When you have accumulated a certain number of "Gospel Coupons", you can exchange them for various resources from the church, or you can cash them out directly, but you cannot use money to buy "Gospel Coupons."

Chu Yan felt familiar with it. Although the Adventurer's Guild had already had this kind of point system, but when he heard that it was based on "every Sunday" as a cycle, it still evoked some associations.

"Why does it feel like a weekly task? Why not just make it into ten Gospel Tickets so that you can draw once?"

This was just a casual remark. How could Chu know the purpose of the church's move?

——The church feels the pressure!

Exchanging Gospel Tickets for resources is essentially to stimulate all parties to explore the deep map while giving away extra resources for free in order to improve the strength of all parties.

If you continue to monopolize those resources, you will end up holding the treasure and staying in this world forever.

If resources are sent out to improve the strength of adventurers, the exploration speed can be accelerated in disguise.

Of course, it is a bit late to provide resources now.

Things like equipment and weapons can be used as soon as they are obtained, but abilities like combat skills and magic take time to master.

However, it is always good to take action.

Chu Yan walked to the door of the chapel and saw a signboard announcing the distribution of gospel coupons. The distribution of resources was quite generous.

Good-quality equipment can be exchanged for one piece per week, but if you want to get a full set of equipment, it will still take a month. Weapons are more expensive, so it will take at least two weeks to exchange them.

The price of excellent equipment is doubled.

Because of the church's "weekly rewards", it can be over-rewarded. If an adventurer completes twice the amount of exploration in a week, he will be given two gospel tickets.

In disguise, it is squeezing the labor of outstanding adventurers to the extreme, but the rewards are adequate and there is nothing much to say.

Places like the Adventurer's Guild and the Auction House cannot be so arrogant. Only the Church has this kind of foundation.

"Eve, the matter of the Rat Gang a while ago, including the Mushroom Man Marquis of the Holy Light Kingdom, should have come to a conclusion, right?"

515

“Yes, the results are there.”

Eve led Chu Yan to the entrance of the Tower of Babel. Even though it was late at night, the place was still bustling with people, and the bright lights illuminated the surroundings so that it was impossible to tell day from night.

The secretary raised her slender finger and pointed at the Tower of Babel. Three meters high, there were several hanged corpses.

Needless to say, the poachers who were captured earlier and the Marquis Blue who was arrested later were all hung there, with a "magic circle of preservation" next to them to prevent the bodies from rotting.

Killing the chicken to scare the monkey reveals the attitude of the church.

Even if a noble is loyal to the church, he will not be exempted from punishment if he dares to cause trouble now!

Chu Yan nodded and praised:

"This is quite unexpected. The church's top leadership is quite factional, representing various forces. I thought someone would protect Marquis Blue."

Officials protecting each other is a phenomenon that will only become more common and no longer surprising in the church.

Eve recalled the rumors and said, "I heard that the Sanctuary of Discipline did it directly. After interrogation, it was confirmed that there were no accomplices. Commander Deloyah hung the body up, and the church leaders learned about it."

"......No wonder." Chu Yan suddenly realized, no wonder it was handled so quickly.

If we had waited for the church's top leaders to discuss, dispute, and negotiate before slowly issuing orders layer by layer, we would probably only be able to come up with results now.

Eve continued to report: "During the few days when you woke up and waited for recovery, there was also a rumor that the empire was returning here. In some towns adjacent to the Yama Empire, their armies were seen preparing."

"This is normal. The last batch of imperial troops died, and the internal adjustments have been almost completed. They will definitely come back. It's just a matter of time. I'm more curious why the demons don't come."

Chu Yan doesn’t have time to make another long journey to the demon clan’s territory to find the new demon king to find out what’s going on. What if he doesn’t get anything?

So we still have to sit back and wait, standing at the "end" of the Tower of Babel and waiting for people.

Judging from the current situation, more and more forces are gathering here, and the vortex will draw everything around it into the center.

"A team from the church came some time ago and recently entered the Tower of Babel. I wonder what they found... By the way, Sister Joseph and Saint Therese were here. It was the fifth day since the young master fell unconscious in the body of the maid Shanoya.

We lied that you were temporarily out of town, and met with the family members to understand the situation and discuss internal affairs."

Eve, I appreciate your dedication to gathering intelligence, but could you please stop targeting the maid...

Chu Yan's mouth twitched, and he said with a smile: "I know, I will visit Sister Josephine tomorrow."

Chapter 42: The Church Abandons the City (-)

There are really not many people walking around the city at night. Chu Yan’s deepest impression of this time period is the incident with Ashis and the mothers’ goodnight milk.

The adventurers at the entrance of the Tower of Babel were extremely excited and happy, and almost all of them were full of positive energy.

This is not surprising. The days in the past were rather vague. I said I was improving myself every day, but it was impossible to tell in the short term whether I had made any actual progress. Perhaps long-term efforts would be in vain, especially after the starting stage of a newcomer.

It’s different now. Not to mention the long distance, you can earn money by running around the map every day. If you explore the map beyond the limit and work hard for a week, you can get gospel tickets and exchange them for resources.

How can you not be excited?

However, as a person who has access to a wider range of information, Chu Yan also feels that it has a bit of a doomsday carnival-like lament.

If the situation in the Tower of Babel had not become so bizarre, the adventurers would probably not be able to enjoy this simple joy.

Chu Yan and Eve stood nearby for a while and indeed heard the alert discussions of some of the adventurers.

They were drinking on the side of the road, and the sound of clinking glasses seemed to create extreme bliss, while the wine flowing down the walls of the glasses reflected their inexplicable worries.

"Brother, this is unreal, so generous... This day is so happy that it feels like the last meal of the year!"

"Yeah, I've lived for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen the Adventurer's Guild act like this. The Church is also like this... Is there something wrong in the tower?"

"That should be it. Judging from their attitude, exploring the map seems to be very important. They are pushing us as hard as possible even if we are given some sweet treats!"

"I heard that the church is planning to offer a class for new adventurers... Have you heard about it? It helps new adventurers grow quickly and skip the ignorant stage."

After discussing for a while, they realized that they did not have the corresponding intelligence channels, nor was it possible for them to waste money to buy intelligence in this area. In the end, they could only speculate on the topic as a side dish.

Chu Yan took Eve two steps away, not wanting their conversation to be heard by passers-by.

To put it bluntly, anything they casually reveal may have a negative impact on "military morale."

Chu Yan pondered deeply, seeking insights, and asked:

"Eve, how long do you think this atmosphere of rapid advancement of map exploration can last?"

Eve turned her head to look back at the adventurers and said:

“It will be difficult to sustain this kind of atmosphere for more than a month. Making money is not the goal. Money must be spent. Only then will adventurers have new motivation to continue making money.

The current situation is that the adventurers have not stopped for a long time.

516

It is. ”

There is no pressure to buy a house in this world. You can just build it in a remote place. And no one will buy a house before "changing the world". That would be a big mistake.

The reason why adventurers were so enthusiastic about commissions to explore the map a while ago was because they had never seen such easy money!

My pockets have been empty for a long time. This is the first time I see such a lucrative job. I want to make enough money in one go. I won’t have such an opportunity again in the future, so I am so active that I forget to eat and sleep.

But the current situation is that the motivation to make money is almost saturated.

Even if they don't go into the tower to work, they can still live a carefree life for several years and have no worries about running out of money.

Money that cannot be spent and no desire to consume will reduce the attractiveness of money.

Chu Yan sighed: "It cannot be exchanged for food or goods, so it has no value at all, alas..."

He seemed to understand how certain loans came about. If he couldn't give you the motivation to pursue a better life, then he would give you high pressure to survive.

Eve said at this time: "Although it's a bit inappropriate, I think the guild's exploration commissions should be suspended for a while. Long-term commissions, no matter how generous, will become cheap."

Chu Yan couldn't help but glance at the tragically dead Marquis Blue. It seemed like this group of people just wanted to sabotage the commission and enrich themselves?

I didn't expect that I would die with such foresight. I wronged you!

“If we let Marquis Blue sabotage the commissions for a while, enter the guild’s management, and let him place his own faction members in certain positions, then the church can step in and defeat him.

This will not only make adventurers feel grateful for the exploration commissions they have lost, but it will also give the church a reason to raid the entire upper-class families of the Holy Light Kingdom."
