I've Become the King of Villains in the Game

"Go back."

Noah paused in the secluded alley, speaking in a deep voice.

"First present the information to Archbishop Martin or Pope Floey... If we want to continue the investigation, we'll also need the Church's assistance."

"You're right, Noah."

Maggie didn't object, merely nodding slightly.

The two raised their hands simultaneously, on their fingers was a serpent ring, its emerald-like eyes emitting a green light.

This was precisely the "Wonderland Seed" crafted by Floey through her authority in the Immortal Realm, allowing all clergies of the Dawn Church to freely enter and exit the Immortal Realm.

However, at this moment, Noah suddenly made a gesture.

The two stopped their actions in perfect harmony.

They turned their heads, looking towards the alley entrance.

A quickly approaching rush of footsteps followed, Doghead Gold's figure flashed by, but in the next second, he backed up, his eyes wide with surprise at seeing the two in the alley.

"Here! I've found them!"

Doghead Gold shouted excitedly.

Maggie furrowed her brows slightly, raising her fingers, intending to use her ability to kill the annoying Undead Foreigner before them.

But Noah grabbed Maggie's wrist first, giving her a cautioning look, then whispered:

"I recognize this person, he used to be under Mr. Jack's command..."

"I don't remember that."

Maggie pouted, retracting her fingers.

Noah breathed a silent sigh of relief.

It would have been fine before, but in the current environment, he did not want to have a conflict with the Undead Foreigner group... Besides the reason he mentioned earlier, that the other was a former subordinate of Mr. Jack, it was also because this fellow's strength was strikingly already at Sequence Five [Bone Husband].

Judging by his aura, he had accumulated quite deeply.

The progress of the Undead Foreigners was incredibly fast, in just a mere five years, the number of Mid Sequence Transcendents had surged, with the most elite among them reaching the level of Noah and Maggie.

Their shouts suggested the presence of other comrades.

If a conflict arose, their side might not necessarily hold the advantage.

Soon enough, the fourteen members of the Polaris Squad gathered at the alley entrance. Upon seeing Noah and Maggie, they appeared extremely excited and joyful.

"Lord Noah, Miss Maggie, it's so good to see you again..."

Polaris stepped forward with determined strides, removing his blue top hat in a courteous manner and paying his respects to the two, then speaking in a respectful tone.

He no longer made the previous mistake of addressing Noah as "Mr."

"I remember you, Polaris, you are one of Mr. Jack's only two Undead students. It's a pleasure to meet you again."

Noah smiled and shook hands with Polaris.

"It's hard to imagine how quickly you've progressed. You are now likely just one ceremony away from the higher ranks."

"An undeserved compliment, Lord Noah. In fact, I haven't made any progress in over two years, the threshold for the Saint Ritual is far too high..."

Polaris shook his head with a wry smile.

However, Noah felt even more disheartened inside.

Two years?

It's already been five years for me...

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Noah curiously asked:

"It seems you were specifically looking for us?"

"Yes, Lord Noah..."

Polaris took a deep breath.

"Ever since the fall of the Sun King five years ago, Teacher Jack went... missing, and the Circus went into hiding. We've been searching aimlessly for so many years, and now, finally, we've found you two."

After hearing Polaris's words, Noah felt slightly moved.

He remained silent for a while.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Polaris, the 'Circus' no longer exists. Under Pope Floey's leadership, we established a new church, called 'Dawn'... Due to certain reasons, we currently cannot reintegrate you Undead Foreigners; please understand."

Noah spoke solemnly.

But Polaris did not feel disappointed; instead, his eyes lit up.

He felt that Noah's words held significant meaning.

Could it be because...

Mr. Jack has not yet made his return?

Regardless, Polaris found a trace of solace.

"Lord Noah, it's alright. Even if we cannot return to the church yet, we are willing to wait indefinitely... Besides, since our strength has improved, we can also serve as the Church's eyes and ears in the material world, providing information and assistance for the Church."

Polaris spoke earnestly, his expression solemn.

Noah and Maggie exchanged a glance, recognizing the look of surprise on each other's faces.

"For you to hold such faith as the first batch of Undead Foreigners from the Circus is truly remarkable, Mr. Jack did not misjudge you..."

Noah said with much emotion.

Polaris stood upright, holding his hat with a slight smile.

"Lord Noah, I happen to have some information that I intend to inform the Dawn Church..."

With that, he relayed the detailed news about the capture of the White Cat Missionary by the Antiquarian Squad to Noah and Maggie.

"The History and Ritual Association?"

Noah appeared very surprised.

He then frowned, exchanging a few whispered words with Maggie, before speaking to Polaris:

"Your information is very important, and we will verify it... If possible, we hope you will assist in searching for the White Cat Missionary's whereabouts when the time comes."

"Of course, no problem."

Polaris nodded solemnly.

"The History and Ritual Association were involved in besieging Teacher Jack, making them enemies of the Dawn Church, and our enemies as well!"

Several days later.

Noah once again returned to the border conflict zone of Di North County.

Accompanying them, besides Maggie, was also Alec.

After returning to the Immortal Realm that day with Maggie, he immediately went to the Dawn Church to present the situation to Archbishop Martin Gustus, who gave them some new instructions.

The matter of the White Cat Missionary must be resolved, otherwise it will only fuel the arrogance of the History and Ritual Association.

It also severely affects the efficiency of guiding the residents of the Immortal Realm.

Martin stated that if necessary, during the search for the White Cat Missionary, if they encounter conflict with the History and Ritual Association, they may use force.

To be on the safe side, he personally re-forged the creations from his youth, the same B-level Mysterious Objects "Palm Fireworks" and "Hope Workshop" once used by His Majesty Jack.

Then he handed them over to Noah to carry as assistance for this operation.

Additionally, there were two Mythic Scrolls personally written by Archbishop Carmen, serving as trump cards.

"Mr. Polaris, the job of divination is entrusted to you."

In the vast, dead-silent ruins, Noah looked at the members of the Polaris Squad and smiled slightly. As he spoke, he took out a small white snake and handed it in front of Polaris.

"This is a trace of Strength left by Mr. Jack. The snake holds some of His authority and can provide strong priority and accuracy for your divination."

"The Strength of the teacher?!"

Polaris was very surprised.

As soon as he took the white snake, he received a panel prompt.

"You are affected by mysterious influence..."

"You have received the blessing of the 'White Serpent Generation' of the King in Azure..."

"Your Mystical Weight and divination priority have greatly increased!"

"As expected of the teacher..."

Polaris exclaimed with excitement.

Not wasting time, he immediately took out a deck of playing cards.

Holding the white snake in one hand, he threw the cards into the air with the other.

Whoosh!

Like a swarm of butterflies, the cards began to revolve around him.

Finally, three cards flew out on their own and fixed in front of him.

Polaris glanced at them and said in a deep voice:

"One hundred and forty kilometers southwest, three-story building, near the trench."

"Let's set off and narrow down the range with divination as we approach the destination."

Noah nodded and gave the order aloud.

Whoosh!

With a wave of his wand, Polaris activated "Cloud Leap," and everyone vanished from the spot in an instant.

Not long after.

Following Polaris's guidance, they found an ordinary residential building where most of the White Cat Missionaries were likely captured by the Constellation Squad.

This area was already the most intense battle zone, with trenches dug all around, and countless ruins and shell craters everywhere.

The sound of dense gunfire reached their ears, occasionally accompanied by deafening explosions.

"Be careful, there are hostile Undead Foreigners keeping watch."

Honey Pomelo, now a Mid Sequence Five "Charming Demon," had starlight flash in her eyes, observing the situation around the residential building from a distance.

"Apart from a ten-member 'Constellation Squad,' there are also twenty-four Undead Foreigners, almost all of them Mid Sequence elites... Moreover, more than one high-level Incarnation is hidden in the building. Sorry, I can't observe any longer, I'll be discovered."

"Thank you for your hard work, Pomelo."

Polaris nodded towards her.

He then turned to look at Noah, Maggie, and Alec.

"Lord Noah, how should we proceed?"

Noah didn't answer, only gave a slight smile and exchanged a glance with Maggie. The latter immediately understood, her face showing an eager expression.

She took off the black box hanging from her neck and opened it. Balloons of various colors floated out and, under the guidance of an invisible force, flew towards the residential building.

"What is that... balloons?!"

The players of the opposing camp quickly noticed the anomaly.

They looked up at the colorful balloons floating in the sky, and with a few cracking sounds, the balloons burst, raining down some fragments from the sky, causing the players' expressions to change dramatically.

"My Luck Points are decreasing! It's a Mysterious Object!"

"No... there is also a Supernatural Plague!"

"Maggie the 'Disease Doctor' from the Circus?!"

The players exclaimed one after another.

Their reactions were quick, with one "Sea Demon" shouting loudly to alert the Constellation Squad patrolling around.

This seemed to stir up a hornet's nest, and immediately ten massive gargoyles flew out from around the residential building.

Three men in vintage suits suddenly appeared in mid-air, effortlessly spotting Noah and his group's hiding place in the trench, looking down indifferently.

"Finally, members of the Dawn Church have arrived."

A middle-aged man with dark red hair spoke.

His gaze fixed intently on the three of them, a smirk on his lips.

"We've waited a long time, finally, we can get what we desire."

"Three Incarnations of the Saint..."

Maggie's smile faded somewhat.

Her gaze flitted over the approaching gargoyles, their outlines flickering and staggering, seemingly unaffected by disease and misfortune.

"They're tough to deal with. Transcendents of the Earth Faction can use 'Historical Retrospection' to clear my disease state."

"It's okay."

Noah took a deep breath and decisively pulled out a scroll.

He casually tossed it out.

It was one of the trump cards given to him by Archbishop Carmen.

Buzz!!

A flash of black light.

The next second, a massive, deep black hole suddenly opened up in mid-air, sucking in the three high-level Incarnations standing there, along with the flying gargoyles.

At the last moment, one of the Vice Chairmen's Incarnations exclaimed in fury and shock:

"The King in Azure's former..."
