Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 884: Chapter 379: Olivia’s Promise (Part 3)

At this moment, the role of Saint George’s Cathedral is similar to Erin’s Gray Church, both serving as focal points of faith, supporting a small patch of Divine Kingdom, and preventing the entry of steam rules.

Inside Saint George’s Cathedral, Wu Chang saw Her Majesty the Queen Olivia with a worried expression.

Although Olivia is a queen, as a Transcendent, she is even inferior to an ordinary Secret Magic Knight and cannot compare with Julie.

Facing a transcendent event of this magnitude, Olivia seemed a bit helpless.

Upon seeing Wu Chang arrive, a look of relief appeared on her face, and she said,

”Sir Sean, I’m glad to see you have arrived safely.”

”I believe there is no need for Julie the Archbishop to say more, you’ve also noticed the anomaly of this great stench; the secret police were completely unprepared for this matter, and they don’t even know whether it’s caused by the Peace Church or another power.”

”With the World Industrial Exposition approaching, this is a turning point for Stilan, and we must quickly resolve this great stench, so it doesn’t affect the exposition’s progress.”

Olivia declared with an undeniable royal tone, then softened her voice, and said gently,

”Sir Sean, it is currently the Empire’s most important moment, and as the royal blade, I can only rely on you.”

”As long as you can help the Empire through this crisis, whatever you want, as long as it’s within my ability, I can fulfill it.”

Wu Chang raised an eyebrow, looked at Olivia, and said,

”Her Majesty Olivia, really anything I want, you will fulfill?”

Olivia blushed slightly under Wu Chang’s gaze, after a brief silence, she nodded slightly and said,

”A qualified ruler should reward excellent ministers commensurate with their achievements. So, as long as it’s your wish, I will fulfill it.”

Wu Chang immediately knelt on one knee, covering his left chest with his right hand, and said passionately,

”I am willing to offer my heart to Your Majesty.”

Seeing Wu Chang seemed serious, Olivia was a bit at a loss, and said,

”Although I will fulfill all your requests, those too excessive cannot be fulfilled openly, only privately.”

Wu Chang blinked, feigning confusion, and said,

”Her Majesty Olivia, I just believe that compared to Glad the Minister of Finance, Randy is more responsible and better suited as Prime Minister, and I wish to support his campaign. How can this request be fulfilled privately?”

A blushing Olivia and Julie, with an angry expression beside her, were both stunned, their minds temporarily failing.

Olivia stammered, ”So that’s what Sir Sean meant, I... I also believe Minister Randy is very responsible and would make a good Prime Minister.”

”Unfortunately, as the Queen, I cannot control the Lower House, but if it comes down to the final step, I will support him.”

Wu Chang rose and said, ”There’s no time to waste, I will immediately investigate this great stench, and I will not let the hidden evildoers ruin Your Majesty’s important matters.”

Julie said, ”I still need to stay and protect Her Majesty the Queen, so I won’t see you off.”

Wu Chang kept a straight face as he turned and left Saint George’s Cathedral.

After leaving the cathedral and teleporting back to the Secret Security Department, he couldn’t help but laugh.

It seems that even Her Majesty the Queen would overthink things after being single for so long; it’s not easy for others to see Olivia’s flushed face and flustered demeanor.

While Wu Chang was laughing halfway, he happened to encounter Raventon carrying a stack of newspapers.

Raventon asked, ”What happened to make you so happy?”

Wu Chang restrained himself once again, shaking his head and said, ”Nothing, I just thought of something funny.”

Raventon sighed, handed the newspapers to Wu Chang, and said,

”These are all the suspicious newspapers we have filtered.”

Wu Chang was surprised and said, ”So quickly?”

Raventon said, ”It’s thanks to those outsider Transcendents; I told them where to get the Hills Newspaper from the last five years, and they brought it back within a few minutes.”

”As for selecting suspicious newspapers, just as you thought, Mr. Nestor has a particular focus on Henry, and with his help, it’s easy to narrow the range.”

Raventon pointed at the newspapers in his hand and said, ”I even suspect that if he wanted, he could further filter out half from them.”

”He suggested that we should focus on invalid information more, what do you plan to do next?”

Wu Chang took the newspapers and spread them out on the table, then took out the All-Knowing Crystal.

”What to do? Of course, rely on inspiration.”

Raventon finally couldn’t help himself; he repeated what Wu Chang had said earlier and said,

”Just by looking at these newspapers, you can find clues through inspiration? What do you consider inspiration to be?”

Wu Chang said as if it was obvious, ”Inspiration is, of course, making reasonable deductions based on sufficient clues and information.”

Raventon laughed in exasperation, not bothering to argue with Wu Chang, and sat beside waiting for an answer.

Currently, the information about Henry is not sufficient for people but is already enough for the All-Knowing Crystal.

After a brief analysis, the All-Knowing Crystal truly extracted a set of code from the hiring information and second-hand item transfers in the Hills Newspaper.

In the code, he saw anomalies related to the Pine Tree Coal Mine explosion, and hints that there were problems in the South Shore Textile District.

These hints reminded Wu Chang of what Sword Star had previously said, that the Steam Council explicitly knew the means to influence Plane Rules with the Power of Root.

If it weren’t for Wu Chang and Raventon’s interference, the Extraordinary Steam Engine that Wu Chang discovered would have, at the right time, been pushed into public view by the Steam Council.

Now it seems that one of the methods of exposure by the Steam Council is through Henry and the Bright Lamp Report.

If unofficially, the Extraordinary Steam Engines that players might encounter were all part of the Steam Council’s plan, set up in advance, then the source of the great stench, the place where steam explosives are manufactured, might also appear in the code.

Following this line of thought, he quickly found a hint.

Southeast of Grimland, midnight, River of Colors.

Found it.

Wu Chang asked Raventon, ”Which is the explosive factory near the river in the southeast of Grimland?”
