I Became the King of Villains In the Game

Chen Lun silently recited the name of Ms. Shengshu in his heart.

Immediately, he felt a gaze cast from far away.

'The favor of the Mother Goddess of Nature...'

Chen Lun was both surprised and delighted.

It is an extremely rare thing to be able to gain the favor of this level of existence... Except for the most outstanding followers of various churches and a very small number of fanatics, ordinary believers dare not even think about it.

And he secretly guessed that he was neither a transcendent of the natural path nor a member of the natural sect, and that he was able to have this honor, most likely due to the honor of Maggie, the cat god...

"Thank you for your gift."

Chen Lun bowed his head respectfully and said in a deep voice.

This sentence was spoken not only to Mrs. Elk, but also to the Mother Goddess who paid attention to him.

"You can go now, Jack."

Mrs. Elk nodded and raised her hand as a signal.

"When the time comes in the future, you can come here again... Since ancient times, the three paths of destiny, nature and magic have been integrated into one, working together to promote mutual development... Then you will understand what I said to you today."

"Yes, Mrs. Moose."

Chen Lun nodded in reply, his face thoughtful.

Immediately, he bowed to the woman on the vine throne again, turned and left.

'Nature and magic are adjacent to destiny... What does Mrs. Elk mean, could it be that in the past few epochs, the transcendents of these three paths were not only not enemies, but also stood on the united front? According to the third law of transcendence, the law of asymmetry of transcendence, if you want to be stronger than ordinary people when trekking on the path of God, you need to constantly dabble in the transcendent knowledge of adjacent paths, so as to comprehend by analogy and spiral upward. '

Chen Lun walked out of the "Heart of the Sacred Tree" hall while thinking.

Goliath, who was waiting outside, strode forward.

"Mr. Jack, the saint has sent a message. He said that he can personally take you to the Augusta Mountains to meet the hermit Frederick from the Meteor Tower."

Chen Lun was a little surprised, and nodded immediately.

"In this case, please trouble the Holy Maiden."

After a while.

Chen Lun followed Goliath and the holy tree guards down the spiral staircase and returned to the ground. Saintess Lutina has changed her attire and is waiting at the door of the church.

His original white hollowed-out robe disappeared, replaced by a dashing dark yellow windbreaker, paired with a cowboy hat and long leather boots, looking like a professional hunter who travels to and from the border all year round.

"Jack, since you've met Mrs. Moose, let's go."

Rutina smiled lightly.

He lightly stroked his long blond hair, and patted the shoulder of Noah, who was a head shorter beside him.

"After your business is finished, we will go to the royal city together. What do you think?"

"It all depends on the meaning of the Holy Maiden."

Chen Lun said very respectfully.

There is a high-ranking person traveling with him, and he is extremely happy.

Lutina nodded, with a smile on her delicate face, put her hands in the outer pockets of the windbreaker, turned around and walked towards the back of the sacred tree.

"Come with me... If you walk through the forest, it will take days to get to the Augustus Mountains, but we can actually take a shortcut."

Chen Lun followed the saint with Noah and Anton.

This time Olga and Gloria did not follow, because Lutina greeted them in advance and said that they do not need to see them off.

Same as when she came, Lutina led Chen Lun and others into the hole of a big tree and went down to the ground. In the light blue tree root space, under the light of fluorescent mushrooms, Lutina turned her head slightly and explained to Chen Lun:

"The roots of the sacred tree are scattered throughout the Coleridge Forest. Many seemingly ordinary towering trees are actually formed by the roots growing out of the ground...so within the forest, there is almost nothing that can deceive our perception .”

"No wonder Priest Olga can easily find me."

Chen Lun raised his eyebrows and suddenly said.

He secretly sighed in his heart, in the Great Forest of Coleridge, the natural sect can be said to have an absolute home field advantage... No wonder the empire only prohibited them from preaching within the territory, rather than expelling or suppressing them.

It's not that the government doesn't want to, but it can't be done.

The size of the Natural Sect is completely comparable to any Orthodox Church, and with the blessing of the home field advantage, it even surpasses it!

After the crowd walked through the underground tree root passage for most of the day, Lutina suddenly stopped and pointed to the far right of the three forked roads ahead.

"Here we are... Going out from here is the northern end of the Coleridge Forest, and you can clearly see the Augusta Mountains."

Chen Lun was amazed that Lutina's choices were extremely accurate every time, and she seemed to remember the entire "underground network" in her mind.

"Thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty the Holy Maiden."

Chen Lun said.

Lutina glanced at him with a chuckle.

"Speaking of which, you can call me Lutina. I like this name better than 'Saint'."

Seeing this, Chen Lun said very wittily:

"Thank you, Miss Lutina."

"You're welcome."

The saint smiled sweetly.

He walked out of the tree hole first, followed by Chen Lun and others.

As Lutina said, this place is already at the edge of the big forest, there are no longer those tall and dense trees blocking it, and the front view is quite wide.

The brilliance of the sun shines through the clouds, and the world seems to be shrouded in golden colors, which is beautiful. A stretch of ancient mountains is located in the distance, but strangely, Chen Lun did not see any shadow of buildings.

"See that tallest mountain?"

Lutina seemed to see what Chen Lun was thinking from his puzzled expression, and she smiled and pointed to the northwest of the Augusta Mountain Range.

Chen Lun looked in the direction of his finger, and there was indeed a mountain that was much higher, but its top was flat, and the edges were even slightly sunken.

"That is the Augusta crater. It is an active volcano. It has erupted three times since the Fifth Era...but the latest eruption dates back to more than 600 years ago."

Lutina explained softly.

"And the location of the Meteor Tower is hidden under the crater. If the Hermit Frederick hadn't stopped it, the previous volcanic eruptions would have destroyed the Great Forest of Coleridge... So He is not only our natural sect friend, and the savior of the inhabitants of the northern border of the empire."

"It turns out that there is such a secret..."

Chen Lun frowned.

"The Hermit Freid Cui is not only powerful, but also has a very noble character. He is a respectable figure."

From Lutina's simple introduction, he can roughly outline the image of a big man who cares about peace in his heart... The reason why the other party chooses to live in seclusion in the Augusta Mountains is not only because there are few people here, but maybe There are also factors that suppress volcanoes.

Lutina nodded in agreement, and then he spoke slowly again:

"Let's go, we still have a few hours to go, and try to reach the Meteor Tower before the sun sets."

Chen Lun nodded in agreement.

Noah and Anton rarely spoke. They followed the leader very quietly, like two well-behaved and sensible followers.

It’s just that Anton looked left and right along the way, and was extremely curious about everything along the way, while Noah would stop to appreciate some beautiful scenery, as if he wanted to engrave the pictures in his mind, and wait until he had free time to read them again. It is painted as an oil painting.

at dusk.

The setting sun dyed the clouds and the sky red, and everything in sight was red. Chen Lun and his party have already boarded the Augusta Mountains and are getting closer to the crater.

This area is very barren. Although the vegetation is lush, there are few traces of life, let alone any human habitation.

Soon, Chen Lun followed Lutina to a giant rock at the highest point.

The rock underfoot was dark black, with pits and pits on the surface.

Chen Lun judged at a glance that it was a piece of obsidian, a type of volcanic crystal. So Lutina's statement that this place is an active crater is probably not a lie.

There is a wide area in front of it, with a diameter of hundreds of meters. The rock wall below the field of vision is covered with black crystals, and a scorching air flow is emitted from the bottomless crater.

About 40 to 50 meters below the feet, an ancient tall tower with light yellow body stands majestically. Its outer wall is covered with traces of smoke, and countless red sapphire crystals grow around the base.

"That's the Meteor Tower."

Lutina looked down at the tower and said softly.

"Go, I'll wait for you here."

Chen Lun nodded, thanked him, and then let Noah and Anton stay where they were, while he jumped down.

Feeling the heat wave head-on, he stomped on his feet, performed an air walk, and landed gracefully at the entrance of the Meteor Tower. Taking two steps forward, he knocked on the thick door of unknown material.

Boom.

After a while.

Except for the whining wind faintly coming from the abyss beside him, there was no movement in the Meteor Tower.

Chen Lun frowned slightly, and knocked on the door again.

At the same time, he said respectfully:

"Dear Ms. Frederick, my name is Jack Speight, I was fortunate enough to get a set of Carmen's Letters, and benefited a lot from it...Mr. Carmen left a message in the Letters, hoping that I will personally hand over this set of Letters to you hands."

He took out three copies of "Carmen's Codex", as well as Mrs. Elk's letters.

"Besides, there is also Mrs. Elk of the Natural Sect, entrusting me to send you a letter."

A few more breaths passed.

The thick door in front of him suddenly creaked, and a crack opened by itself.

"Hand things in."

A lazy mature female voice came from the Meteor Tower.

Chen Lun was slightly taken aback, then heaved a sigh of relief, raised his hand and passed the letters and letters through the gap in the door. I don't know if it was an illusion, but he felt a cold and stiff hand take the object, and the dim blue color flashed through the gap.

The Meteor Tower fell into silence again.

Just when Chen Lun didn't know whether to continue waiting or turn around and leave, the door opened completely.

Ka Ka Ka...

"come in."

The lazy female voice appeared again.

Chen Lun took a deep breath and stepped into the Meteor Tower.
