Volume 1 Jade Chapter 24 I'm Going to Sail Away

Stulton's mutated animal head flew in the air like a ball.

Then it drew an arc, fell into the river beside it with a splash, and disappeared without a trace.

Under the cover of night, there was no more ripples.

[You killed Brother Stulton of the Red Apple Church (possessed by Bishop Newman), and gained 500 experience points]

[Your actions have caused far-reaching consequences. The Red Apple Church will regard you as an enemy and hunt you down! ]

Chen Lun ignored the eye-catching crimson prompt box.

He walked a few steps to the place where Stulton had fallen, bent down and picked up the two objects.

[D-level weird golden goblet]

Item description: A wine glass specially made by the Red Apple Church, which works in pairs and has the ability to communicate over long distances.

Pour fresh virgin blood into the cup to communicate with another cup holder through voice transmission, which lasts for 24 hours.

Ah, bright red wine, the fragrance of a virgin, let your soul be the messenger to deliver my gospel...

Chen Lun looked at the golden wine glass and frowned slightly.

He squeezed it hard, and the wine glass in his hand creaked.

Then the huge force seemed to exceed its endurance threshold, and it shattered into pieces with a bang.

A [D-level weird thing] was destroyed just like that.

"Huh...this hateful thing must not be kept!"

The reason why Chen Lun destroyed it was not just because the description of the item was offensive.

Moreover, because it came from the Red Apple Church, it was very likely to have been tampered with. It would be bad if he was tracked down with this thing.

It was of no use to him in the first place, so it was better to destroy it.

The gold fragments in his hand slowly softened and then turned into gold mud.

The color gradually faded and merged into a red ball similar to "meat paste".

[Obtain low-sequence flesh and blood faction mysterious substance]

Chen Lun put them into the panel, adding them to the ones he originally had, totaling four copies.

This thing is very precious and useful.

Whether it is forging extraordinary items, forging artificial [weird things], or advancing through the sequence, etc., it will be useful in the future.

Next, Chen Lun looked at the crossbow carefully.

[C-rank Monster Greedy Tongue]

Item description: An old wooden miniature crossbow, easy to carry.

On one side of the crossbow, there are sharp serrated patterns engraved, which seem to represent the power of flesh and blood it contains.

There is no need to load the crossbow. Just pull the trigger to fire a bait arrow, attracting gluttonous evil spirits from the spirit world to devour the target.

It seems to have come from a philanthropic gourmet.

He is keen on cooking various delicacies to entertain guests.

Until one day, a distant visitor from the spirit world knocked on his door.

So the gourmet made himself into a delicacy and offered it to him to enjoy...

Item Effect: The person hit by the arrow will temporarily lose 10% of his upper limit of health and 30% of his upper limit of effect. He will also fall into a state of extreme hunger.

Item cost: Each crossbow arrow will deduct a large amount of physical strength, depending on the situation.

Chen Lun was somewhat surprised by this [weird object]. Its quality and effect were surprisingly good, even comparable to some of the lesser [B-level weird objects].

A hand crossbow with, in a sense, unlimited ammunition.

The lethality is amazing. The higher the opponent's health, the higher the benefit. It is simply the nemesis of the blood cow!

What was the cost of draining physical strength? Chen Lun even wanted to shout out loud:

Come on! Squeeze me dry!

Chen Lun put the crossbow on his waist, turned around and walked back.

Because we were chasing Stulton, we went a little far away, and there were still some remnants in the Red Apple Church that had not been completely eliminated.

In order to allow the majority of players to have a better gaming experience after arriving in this world, Chen Lun decided to reduce the difficulty for them and artificially weaken the villain forces in this version.

This fearless spirit of being willing to sacrifice for the players once again made Chen Lun's eyes wet.

"I just wonder how many more good things are hidden in the church...?"

"This kind of evil heresy will definitely prey on the neighbors and exploit the civilians. I must confiscate all the stolen money they have collected!"

The more Chen Lun thought about it, the angrier he became, and his pace became faster and faster.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared at the end of the street.

…

Interior of the Red Apple Church.

Prayer room.

Chen Lun stood quietly beside the female corpse.

He sighed softly, bent down and closed his wide eyes.

There was a small box on a bench behind him.

Inside was the valuables that Chen Lun had collected after ransacking the entire church.

During the search, he found some bread, which relieved his hunger after eating.

He also killed all the remaining guards and rot hounds of the church, gaining a considerable amount of experience points.

Chen Lun also discovered a secret passage leading to the suburbs in a hidden corner.

He guessed that this place was connected to the previous prison.

At this time, there was dead silence all around. Chen Lun deposited all the coins in the small box into the panel.

176 gold pounds, 684 silver ounces, and 3455 bronze crores!

It can be said to be a wave of fat, and Chen Lun accepted it without hesitation.

boom!!

Chen Lun suddenly turned his head.

A hot wave of air and a sharp sound of breaking through the air passed by my ears, and then a hole appeared on the prayer table in front of me, and wood chips flew everywhere.

"Don't move! Asylum investigator! Please cooperate with the investigation!"

Chen Lun turned slightly and found two young men in white uniforms standing at the door.

They each held an old-fashioned one-handed flintlock rifle in their hands. Smoke was still coming out of the muzzle of the gun in one of their hands, and it was obvious that he was the one who had just fired the shot.

Seeing this, Chen Lun narrowed his eyes, raised his hands and faced the two men.

Shelter...

The Empire's official supernatural organization, a violent institution dedicated to containing and suppressing [weird creatures] and wild supernatural beings.

Chen Lun was very familiar with them.

In the previous life, the largest number of players joined this force.

Because although the shelter is not one of the seven righteous gods, it has the support of the imperial royal family behind it.

The power is enormous, and there are many promotion paths and rewards to choose from.

"Just the two of you?"

Chen Lun asked, his tone as if he was chatting with two old friends.

"Don't try to play tricks. Our colleagues are guarding outside, and the team leader is on the way...

Although you are a superhuman, we have captured countless superhumans ourselves. If you don’t believe me, you can try it.”

One of the investigators said coldly.

"But you only have two guns now. Are you sure you can hit me?"

"Why are there always some arrogant people like you who dare to challenge the authority of the shelter..."

The two investigators looked at each other barely perceptibly and reached a consensus.

They were ready to shoot together and take down the guy in front of them.

But the next second, they heard a strong but distant noise.

The two of them suddenly saw stars and felt an indescribable feeling of nausea.

Before he could pull the trigger, he felt a tall figure looming in front of him, and a sharp pain came from his abdomen the next second.

Bang ! Bang!

Chen Lun knocked the two men down and picked up the flintlock rifles in their hands.

This musket is a high-tech weapon made by the extraordinary workshop under the shelter, and can be loaded with ten lead bullets at a time.

Although it is not a [weird creature], it can be popularized to ordinary investigators.

Almost everyone has one, and it has a very strong deterrent effect.

As long as more than three investigators focus their fire, the Low-Sequence Transcendent is likely to be defeated.

After all, the low-sequence creatures have not yet separated from their flesh and blood bodies, and under the dense firepower coverage, they are almost certain to die.

five minutes later.

Chen Lun stood at the door of the church, looking at the four investigators lying in a row on the ground, hugging each other in a coma, and shook his head slightly.

Then he moved the female corpse here, took out two gold pounds and placed them on the eyelids of the female corpse.

"There's only so much I can do."

He raised his hand and fired a shot into the church door.

BANG!!

The bullet hit the oil pot that had been placed in advance, sparks flew and ignited the thatched pile below.

Suddenly, the flames rose high and gradually engulfed the entire church.

Chen Lun turned and left.

There was a sea of fire behind him.

boom!!

The church that had stood for many years collapsed, and the fire became more and more terrifying, as if it were daytime.

Many residents who were awakened late at night hid behind their windows and watched this scene that they would never forget for many years.

Some are excited, some are silent, some are calling out to the gods, some are praying in a low voice.

Ralph stood not far from the church, silently.

Several investigators who were knocked unconscious by Chen Lun had woken up at this time and stood behind him with their heads down, not daring to say a word.

"Team Leader, should we chase him? That guy may not have gone far..."

"Chase?"

Ralph sneered, turned around and took a puff of his cigar.

The smoke blew into the face of the investigator who was speaking, making it impossible for him to open his eyes.

But he didn't dare to really close his eyes, so he could only hold on, tears streaming down his face.

"Just a few of you guys acting on your own?"

After he finished speaking, the scene fell into silence for a moment.

"You should thank her."

Ralph pointed at the female corpse on the ground.

Several investigators looked at each other.

Ralph bent down to pick up the gold coin on the female corpse's eyelid, placed it in his palm, and was a little absent-minded.

"I think the reason why he didn't kill you is that he wanted the shelter to give her a decent funeral."

He snapped his fingers and the gold coin fell into the hands of one of the investigators.

"Go, find the Moon Church and bury this female corpse... and find her family and give them some compensation."

Ralph rubbed his temple in annoyance.

"Just think of it as us helping the Red Apple Church clean up its mess."

"...Yes, Team Leader."

Ralph threw away his cigar, stomped it out, and looked into the distance.

"I miscalculated."

…

Outside the town bridge.

Chen Lun sat in the carriage and took a last look at Emerald Town.

In the dim light of day, the town seemed extremely quiet.

[Complete B-level side quest: Broken Emerald Apple]

[You successfully destroyed the Red Apple Church branch in Emerald Town, and received the mission reward: 5000 experience points, 20 gold pounds, Floyd's favorability, [Low-sequence Flesh and Blood Faction Mysterious Substance] *3, and 1 point of regional reputation]

[The Red Apple Church's favorability towards you has dropped. They will treat you as an enemy and hunt you down to the end! ]

Chen Lun smiled at the last tip.

This quest is triggered when he sneaks into the Red Apple Church and kills the first guard.

He was very satisfied with the reward, especially the regional popularity of the song.

It is equivalent to a kind of reputation and is effective for all NPCs.

Not only does it have an effect similar to charm value, but there are also more unexpected benefits.

For example, after joining a faction, certain rare items and precious rewards require a certain level of fame before you are eligible to obtain them.

But on the other hand, it is extremely difficult to gain popularity, and most people simply cannot .

"Where are we going now?"

Floyd sat aside and asked softly.

“To the future.”

Chen Lun said jokingly and chuckled.
