Chun returned to his room satisfied, logged in immediately, and checked the screen. It was still a blur of characters.

Alright then, riding on the buzz of the alcohol, I might as well take a nap; it's going to be an all-nighter tonight.

Recalling the eager attitude of the little internet cafe manager earlier, he probably knew the developments in the game, plus there's a professional team on the third floor...

Chun obviously understood the importance of being the world's number 11 player. It's not just the great gods who expect me to carry them, but also the unlucky third-floor professional players, and even all the players in the China District.

This trip back, I have to do big things! Even if I don't start a job, don't make a move, the power of the Angel Divine Pet is right here, how easy is that? As long as it's about killing monsters, it's no big deal!

...

As Chun was deep in his nap, the event alarm woke him up.

Chun immediately checked, it was 3 in the afternoon. The white light in front of the screen began to dissipate, and the broken clock on the church roof started to chime!

——System Message: Congratulations!

...

Holy Shit!!!

Chun vaguely remembered that when he first landed on the island, he had five or six hundred physical load, and two or three hundred life, but the plague halved it, leading the Commerce Order's 105% bonus to almost nothing. Now that it's restored, load and physical strength quadrupled! The real horror is the muscle memory with the disease! Every restored skill level adds +1 life, resulting in an extra 632! The overall Life Value nearly increased tenfold!!

How grueling was this attribute growth, but buying a house doesn't seem difficult? What if I bought several mansions…

Just as Chun started thinking about buying property, Nancy's voice rang out: "Congratulations, City Lord, your plague has been completely eradicated, and the envoy from the Animal Protection Association and Church has been waiting for you for a long time now."

Uh? So the church bell was welcoming the envoy?

Finally, the white glow in front of Chun dissipated, and he finally emerged from his groggy state, spotting a cloaked white-robed figure standing at the church door...but the build seemed female? Is this someone Maria sent, a legitimate representative?

At this moment, Nancy also returned to human form: "Guardian God of Plague Island Nancy welcomes the envoy."

Chun followed suit in greeting: "How long has the envoy been waiting?"

The envoy replied lightly: "I saw you undergoing Holy Light Baptism when I arrived, so I waited a while longer, which saves me some effort."

Then she pulled out a scroll: "On behalf of Black Iron City Church, I pardon you for all litigations in Black Iron City! Of course, this is only a pardon for litigations and does not cleanse your offenses. After returning to the city, you will need to complete tasks assigned by the Church and the Animal Protection Association to fully clear your offenses."

——System Message: Congratulations! You have received a pardon from the Black Iron City Church and your red-name status has disappeared.

Finally! This nerve-wracking red name…

Chun recalled something: "And what about the Silver City's bounty on me?"

The envoy responded lightly: "Just avoid Silver City."

Uh… okay, so this means Maria hasn't gained enough power to control Silver City yet, otherwise having absolute authority wouldn't be good.

The envoy then continued: "Then, let's return!"

As she spoke, she took Chun's hand.

Why hold his hand? Chun's heart trembled, feeling her voice sounded familiar: "What is the envoy's name?"

The nun did not answer, but their body erupted in a burst of fluctuating waves – scene transition!

Holy shit! I'm high-class, huh. I took a "plane" for such a long distance!

A few seconds later, the scene transition completed, and Chun appeared in a solemn and serious… garden square?

——System Message: You have arrived at the Black Iron City Animal Protection Association.

Is it just like that? Although high-end, it feels a bit hasty! There's none of that ceremonial atmosphere with ten thousand players watching at the dock…

Chun looked around at the cloaked nun, who released his hand and pointed towards a woman in white clothes floating with holy radiance, who was planting flowers in the garden, and said: "Holy Mother Dharma, approach her to receive tasks."

After speaking, the nun turned into a puff of smoke!

Chun hurriedly exclaimed: "I still don't know who you are—"

The smoke disappeared!

Holy shit, holy shit! The voice was familiar, yet another sent by Maria, could it be…the Supervisor? It seems the butler did mention that the Supervisor has been busy these days and hasn't returned home. Hell patrols are being handled by the little ones, so her busyness could only be here?

While lost in thought, the Holy Mother spoke tenderly: "Come here!"

Uh…

Chun had no choice but to approach and suddenly found the garden filled with cattle, sheep, cats, dogs—Holy shit! Isn't that dog the same as the wandering dog in the sewer?

Alright, this looks like a zoo, perfect for discussing zoo operations with her.

Chun went forward to greet: "Hello, Holy Mother!"

She was indeed as holy and merciful as a goddess! It's the first time Chun learned that the Animal Protection Association had someone like this. The title "Holy Mother" probably doesn't mean being a god's mother, but rather a female Saint? A Saint? Holy shit, this is obviously more powerful than a Sage, so above Sage is Saint?

The Holy Mother asked softly: "Do you love animals?"

Chun's heart tightened, is this an interview? I love to eat! But I'd never eat that Wandering Dog King.

Somehow, Chun could suddenly understand sea demons like Sirens, who love men by devouring them…

Chun didn't mess around, getting straight to the point: "I love rare animals! Actually, I found that Black Iron City has no zoo and no aquarium. I really want to establish a zoo. It could both treat rare animals well and bring happiness to the citizens, while also increasing our Association's income."

The Holy Mother chuckled: "You truly are a pragmatic person."
