Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 375 Acquired

After dealing with Miss "Judgment," Klein took "The Travels of Grossell" in his hands and sealed the book in a certain way.

"Have Miss Justice pay more attention to the dragon symbol..." Klein manifested the "World" dummy again to pray, entrusting Miss Justice to investigate the dragon symbol.

Klein descended from the gray fog, taking Grosser's Travels with him.

This thing is a bit strange, so it's best not to put it in the gray fog.

"Finally done..." He stretched and walked out of the lounge, returning to his office at the Dream Church.

He has accomplished his primary objective here; now he just needs to wait for things to unfold.

As Klein predicted, after he unleashed the powerful weapon of "economic power," the entire Backlund region began to move from top to bottom.

All the nobles, including the Augustan family, were making painful sacrifices in various aspects, and things that sounded very unreliable, such as minimum wage standards, maximum working hours per week, and worker life protection, were becoming a reality.

These nobles, though frustrated, obediently delivered the standards of these reform documents to Klein's office, where he personally used the power of the Dream Cult to implement them.

Klein would often simply wave his hand and sign off, forcing the factories in the East District to fully implement the new salary and working hour systems within a few days.

If you fail to do so, then priests from various churches will come to your door to persuade you repeatedly. Even if you can withstand the volatile temper of the Storm Church priests, you can't withstand the Dream Sect's strong offensive.

For capitalists who were prepared to spend their lives in their dilapidated factories, Klein directly introduced a buyout policy, forcibly buying the factories at below-market prices and selling them to other factory owners, thus driving these capitalists out of Backlund.

The residents of the East District are usually apathetic and ignorant, but they have an astonishing insight into this matter.

After all, the reduced working hours and the almost 50% increase in salary each day don't lie.

This phenomenon was regarded as a miracle by countless poor people, who believed that only gods could do such a thing.

At this moment, the status of nobles and factory owners collapsed, and the majesty of the gods was greatly proclaimed.

It must be said that Klein's actions directly provoked opposition from the entire aristocracy and capitalists. Messengers kept coming to Klein's office, but none of them were able to be summoned.

You have a problem? Go complain to "Supreme Dream"!

To achieve his goals, Klein displayed the toughest stance, launching an attack in the name of the Dream Cult, forcing even the Augustus family to avoid his advance.

At this, Major General Chunus Colger of MI9, who had been watching the situation closely, couldn't help but smile.

"I feel we need to send appropriate guards to protect Bishop John."

"He's only been in office for a short time, yet he's already accomplished what we couldn't achieve even after months of hard work!"

"...I even suspect he's one of us." Herwin Rambis was also taken aback; this was definitely the easiest mission he had ever undertaken.

"His Majesty the King is very pleased with him!" The "His Majesty the King" here is naturally George III, a king of little renown who had sent envoys to invite Bishop John to banquets several times, only to be turned away each time.

In stark contrast to this was the attitude of the nobles, bankers, and capitalists.

Rumors circulated from many noble families that the patriarchs had gone mad and berated John Constantine; within the Loen noble community, his name was utterly disliked.

Even the most elite nobles were significantly affected by this massive operation.

According to Audrey Hall's observation, her beloved father has recently had many more gray hairs, and he hasn't eaten his favorite cream cake for lunch recently.

She naturally knew that this was because the Survival Act had already affected some of their family's businesses, and the asset report had been sent to the Earl's mansion long ago. The amount that could cause the Earl such distress must be quite substantial.

This left the noble lady with mixed feelings. As the head of the Women and Children's Rights Protection Association, she was on the front lines and could clearly feel the change in the atmosphere of the East District.

Something called hope is beginning to spread in that stinking, filthy factory district.

"Is Mr. World really that amazing?"

……

"I feel like I'm almost there!" One day, while signing something, Klein suddenly had a spiritual awakening and felt a corresponding sensation. He put down his pen, leaned back in his chair, and closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, Klein had already arrived in the fantasy utopia, and his first instinct was to look at the progress bar.

It's quite obvious that the progress bar is full!

"The recipe for 'The Trickster'!" Klein's eyes lit up. He reached out and tapped, and the progress bar instantly cleared, revealing a piece of parchment in his hand.

"The Trickster: The master eye of the wicked and evil, the true soul of the spirit world raider..."

"Ascension Ceremony: Primarily relying on one's own strength and planning, in front of a large audience, a grand drama is staged to murder a demigod or an equally extraordinary being, and then, at the end of the drama, a magic potion is consumed."

"This..." Klein fell silent the moment he saw the ritual; this was a bit difficult.

Killing a demigod should be achievable for Klein in his current state, but there are simply too many variables involved in doing so under the watchful eyes of many.

Once this demigod has helpers arrive, the difficulty of the ritual will increase rapidly.

"This is tough!" Klein gritted his teeth. He was fortunate to have obtained the Sequence 4 formula, but this was only the beginning.

"Now the Tarot Club is releasing commissions, asking them to keep an eye out for the relevant materials, and they can also write to Mr. Azik to inquire..."

While detaching himself from utopia, Klein developed a practical plan.

"Furthermore, I also need to prepare the ritual for the 'Karma's Beloved.'"

"The One Favored by Cause and Effect," the fourth sequence of the "Dream Path," is a threshold for truly becoming a Dream Demigod.

Even within the Dream Church, there aren't many such individuals, considering that even the highest-ranking official in the Kingdom of Rune is only at Sequence Five.

"The transformation into a demigod in the Gift system is probably more difficult than drinking a magic potion."

Klein had no choice but to confront these issues.

"This is really difficult..." Klein sighed softly.

But we can't give up just because something is difficult.

Klein mustered his strength, reached out and grabbed a paper figure, then shook it. The paper figure transformed into his current appearance, sitting there continuing to sign documents, while his true self included the advancement to demigod in his plan, breaking down the objectives.
