A group of people shuttled through the chaotic city.
Crazy and fallen believers were running around in the streets, and from time to time loud noises and screams could be heard coming from the distance.
The bloodstains and corpses everywhere had been solidified by the low temperature, and the garbage, glass shards and fragments of shop doors were rolling in the wind, highlighting the chaos in the entire city.
A few fallen believers saw the crowd and immediately rushed over. They had crazy looks on their faces and were muttering strange prayers, which made people feel creepy.
But before they could get close, their heads were blown up by dense bullets.
It was the Silver Dragon Guard who took action.
Captain Xixi led five team members and followed Chen Lun on the "battle", while the rest stayed in the Chamber of Commerce branch building to protect ordinary people.
The team members' long-barreled flintlock rifles are extremely powerful. They don't seem like ordinary muskets, but more like extraordinary things.
Their shooting skills were also very accurate. After a few shots, all the bullets hit the head. Before the fallen believers could even transform, they lost their heads and fell to the ground.
The headless fallen believer kept twitching and twisting on the ground. Countless flesh tentacles emerged from his neck and waved around randomly, but they no longer posed a threat.
Their tenacious vitality can sustain them for a period of time.
Xixi put down the long-barreled flintlock rifle in his hand, made a gesture, and directed his men to go forward and chop the fallen believers on the ground into pieces to prevent future troubles.
There was a constant sound of "puffing", and dirty blood was all over the ground, still steaming.
Stan and Nalan secretly admired it.
They looked up at the owl circling in the sky, and then looked at the gentleman in black who was walking in front.
"I have to say, hunting down the Red Apple Church is a bold decision."
Nalan sighed.
"Who knows if this person is really capable or just pretending to be mysterious."
Stan replied.
They couldn't help but recall the surprised expressions of the officials from the shelter and the Star Sect guarding the entrances and exits when they first entered the "Red Disaster" city.
Now everyone is fleeing to the upper city, but they are actually running to the lower city.
It's really confusing.
A female captain of the Star Sect kindly reminded them that the city was very dangerous and they should not enter easily.
But Mr. Jack just responded with a light smile and a simple word of thanks, then walked into the city without looking back.
I really don't know where he gets his confidence from.
At this moment, Mr. Jack, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Xixi, who was standing by, exhaled a breath and asked softly.
Chen Lun just laughed softly:
"We caught the first one..."
After he finished speaking, he turned suddenly and threw several cards to the left.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...!
The card knife cut through the air and shattered the third-floor window of a building on the left, and a dark red figure flashed past inside.
In everyone's peripheral vision, they saw a black windbreaker lifted up, and Jack disappeared.
Take a closer look.
Only a card fell on the spot.
"Where are the others?"
"I don't know, it should be Jack's extraordinary means."
"What happened? Was the person in that building just now a transcendent from the Red Apple Church?!"
After a brief exchange among the group, Stan finally asked.
Next second.
"Yes."
Chen Lun's voice came and answered his question.
Everyone immediately saw the gentleman in black appear again, as if by magic.
He returned leisurely, holding his hat with one hand and carrying a man with the other.
The man in Jack's hand was already seriously injured and on the verge of death. He was limp all over, with his head down and coughing up blood. There was a big dent in his left chest, as if he had suffered a terrible blow.
The rising heat is visible to the naked eye.
The man was wearing the unique crimson monk's robe of the Red Apple Church, and everyone recognized .
"He is a mid-sequence transcendent... He has a priest pendant from the Red Apple Church hanging around his neck."
Cumberland said solemnly.
Stan, Nalan and Xixi's expressions changed slightly.
In such a short time, Jack had severely injured this Sequence 7 priest hiding in the dark, and brought him out like a dead dog? !
What exactly is his strength?!
Everyone's mind was spinning, and they once again refreshed their expectations of Jack.
Chen Lun threw the unknown priest in his hand to the ground.
He turned the silver cane, and with a whoosh, the sharp end was aimed at the man's neck, and he asked softly:
"What is your purpose in hiding in the city and hunting other living people?"
"puff……"
The man spat out a mouthful of blood. The wound on his left chest was caused by the black-hatted young man who suddenly appeared in front of him and shattered his heart with a punch.
"You will all die, without exception... His Holiness Pope Dolomypurnis is the most beloved follower of Lady Rose. He will be revived from the Rose Garden, break out of the fruit of death, and lead the world to complete the great cause of our religion!"
The priest of the Red Apple Church had a crazy expression on his face. He muttered something that others couldn't understand, and then laughed viciously.
"Ha ha ha ha……!"
Chen Lun frowned slightly, took the other party's words to heart, and then stabbed out fiercely with the silver cane in his hand.
The sharp snake tail pierced through the priest's neck.
The extraordinary flame spread along the gloves to the silver staff until it ignited the priest.
boom!
"Ugh...hiss...ah!"
The priest struggled and wailed in the flames, but because his throat was pierced, he could not utter a complete sound.
The onlookers were forced back by the high-temperature air wave and watched in shock as the man was burned to ashes alive.
The ice crystals condensed on the ground around melted into boiling water, and the ground even showed charcoal-like veins.
[Kill Father Wilder of the Red Apple Church (Sequence 7 - Ghoul) and gain 10,000 experience points! ]
Chen Lun ignored the prompt box and frowned slightly.
He noticed that there was no remains on the dark ground.
The extraordinary people of the flesh and blood faction have tenacious vitality. In order to ensure that this man was killed as soon as possible, he used the extraordinary fire.
The other party's body was burned to ashes, and his spirit was incomplete, so naturally no strange objects would be left behind.
But it seems a bit abnormal that even the most basic mysterious substance has disappeared.
"Strange... This violates the second law of the supernatural, the law of increasing entropy. Supernatural characteristics will not disappear or decrease, but only increase..."
Chen Lun pondered for a moment.
"Was it taken away by some invisible force? Or is there some other reason...?"
At this time, Stan and Nalan walked up to Chen Lun and asked:
"Mr. Jack, what should we do next?"
Their expressions were a little more respectful than before, and it was obvious that the move just now had shocked the two of them.
Chen Lun did not answer them immediately.
He calmed his mind and secretly opened the panel to take a look.
[Trigger the main quest: Scarlet Festival! ]
Second Ring: The Red Apple Church caused unrest in the empire, and various regions fell into chaos.
Please try to prevent the spread of the disaster, eliminate the fallen believers, and destroy the Red Apple Church branch. Every time you successfully clear the "red disaster" in a region, you will gain the corresponding main task contribution, and the accumulated contribution will be continued to the third round of settlement.
Mission rewards: After completing the second ring of the main line, the rewards will be calculated based on the contribution. (Reward pool: experience points, coins, regional singing points, empire contribution points, official supernatural organization favorability, special attribute points and blessing points, etc.)
[Main Quest: Scarlet Festival (in progress)]
Current location: Trisur Empire, Gem State, Snow Crystal City.
Mission targets: Red Apple Church clergy, fallen believers (78/590), Transcendent monks (0/20), Transcendent priests (1/5), Transcendent bishops (0/1).
"Well... we just need to deal with the priests and bishops who pose the greatest threat. After all, they are both mid-sequence transcendents... As for the rest of the scum, we will leave it to the authorities to deal with."
Chen Lun thought.
The second ring of the main quest was triggered automatically some time ago, which should be around the same time when players received the server-wide notification. This was the conclusion he came to after browsing the game forum.
But he knew that his main mission was definitely different from that of the other players.
The regional mission in Snow Crystal City was triggered only when he and Noah came here, and it was considered part of the second ring of the main storyline.
This is also why he would directly use force to force the Chamber of Commerce’s top leaders to make all the extraordinary people obey his orders.
Firstly, through the information on the task panel, Chen Lun knew very clearly that the original plan of the Chamber of Commerce’s top leaders would not work at all.
Secondly, he also wanted to take the opportunity to complete this task and obtain sufficient contribution points.
Since it can help Noah and Rosa save the Chamber of Commerce and also make a profit for yourself, why not do it?
Of course, this also includes some emotions of wanting to teach that idiot Kaybak a lesson.
"I need each of your three supernatural organizations to hunt down a priest from the Red Apple Church."
Chen Lun looked at Stan, Nalan and Cumberland.
He waved his hand and three owls flew over and landed on his shoulders.
"These three little guys will lead the way for you. The targets are hidden ."
Seeing the wary expressions of Stan and others, Chen Lun raised his eyebrows and explained:
"I don't need to let you serve as cannon fodder. It's just that I am too busy to deal with them... In order to prevent them from getting the news and escaping during the hunt, I need you to hunt them all at the same time and not let any of them go.
Those priests are only Sequence 7 Beyonders. With so many of you, you can handle them, right? Don't worry, I will personally deal with the Red Apple Church Bishop who poses the greatest threat."
Stan felt relieved after hearing this. After thinking for a few seconds, he nodded.
Chen Lun looked at the Silver Dragon Guard again.
“Captain Xixi, go and deal with the other priest. There are some low-sequence monks with him…”
Xixi held the hilt of the knife at his waist, held his beret and nodded to Chen Lun, indicating that he agreed with the decision.
Chen Lun patted Noah's shoulder again.
"Noah, you should go with Sissi and the others."
"Yeah! Mr. Jack!"
Noah nodded in response.
The temporary team was divided into five small teams. Except for Chen Lun himself, the other teams were equipped with an owl to lead the way.
Finally, when they parted, Noah turned around and said solemnly to Chen Lun:
"Mr. Jack, please be careful."
"Don't worry, Noah, and I wish you good luck in your promotion."
Chen Lun smiled and nodded.
