Chen Lun continued to read the posts on the forum, his mind working non-stop.
His face was calm, thinking about how to break the impasse.
The surrounding spiritual environment is blurry and distorted, like an absurd abstract painting, giving people the illusion that terrifying creatures will jump out of the darkness at any time.
But the quiet environment is also very suitable for alone meditation.
Chen Lun thought of his promotion mission "Dangerous Game" through the aggressive Rafa, and also thought of several promotion plans he had originally designed...
'Perhaps the chaser of the show could be replaced by Rafa...but...'
He thought to himself.
Suddenly, Chen Lun's eyes caught sight of one of the posts.
The poster is a player who is in the main city of the Gem State, "Fossil City". The content of the post stated that in the center of Fossil City, in the cathedral area of ​​the Church of the Sun, a magnificent and spectacular building has risen from the ground.
Although it is still under construction, it came into being from nothing in just two days, as if it appeared out of thin air.
The post also included a screenshot.
That was the player who posted the message, and he captured the picture from a long distance away.
Deep in the cathedral area of ​​the Church of the Sun, there is a white obelisk over a hundred meters high. From a distance, it looks like a dazzling sword pointing straight to the sky.
There were countless patterns carved on the strange ivory-white stone tablet, but it was too far away to see clearly. However, Chen Lun knew that it was the Anita script of the old era, and the content of the relief was the first three chapters .
"Daytime Obelisk... It seems that Archbishop Terrence of the Church of the Sun has arrived in Fossil City in the past two days."
Chen Lun's eyes were deep.
'Once the obelisk is completely built, this great man, one of the twelve bishops of the Blazing Sun Monastery, will use this extraordinary wonder to project his many incarnations throughout the entire Gem State. In all the major cities under it, including Amber City, His presence will appear without exception...
This is a suppression of the Red Apple Church, and also a deterrent from the authorities.
By then, if Terrence comes to trouble me because of the [Fireworks in the Palm], he won't be able to escape...'
He took a deep breath and realized where the strong warning from his spiritual intuition came from - it was Rafa and Terrence!
But Chen Lun's rapidly working brain suddenly flashed a flash of inspiration.
This ray of inspiration was like a bolt of lightning, breaking through the dark barriers in the mind, connecting all the information and illuminating the way forward.
Chen Lun was stunned for a moment, then he smiled a slightly ferocious smile.
"There's no point in just running away like this... I want to see a river of blood!"
He closed his eyes and spent a few minutes organizing his inspiration, then made drastic changes to his original promotion plan, making it unrecognizable.
Open your eyes again.
Chen Lun took out the "Youlan Statue" and activated it with the power of the Youlan Sword.
"If I succeed, not only will I be able to advance to Sequence 6, I can also eliminate the crisis in Amber City... and disgust Rafa and Terrence at the same time."
Buzz!
The orchid statue emitted a purple light, and Chen Lun was led by its power and suddenly entered the graveyard area of ​​the spiritual world.
"For this plan, I need an important helper, and that's Mr. Byers!"
…
…
…
Wonderland lakeside cottage.
On the lawn of the intelligence exchange area, Dongyang and others were discussing fiercely. The centaur suddenly noticed something and suddenly shouted:
"Hey! Everyone! There's a mission!"
Polaris, Dongyang, Chenxi and others turned their heads, their faces full of confusion.
Following the centaur's gaze, they looked towards the location in front of the cabin.
The statue of Jack stood quietly, and at some point, a golden exclamation mark appeared above its head.
That's a hint of a mission!
Everyone immediately became interested, stood up, surrounded the statue, and chose to interact.
When the task prompt box popped up and they saw the detailed description on it, without exception, they all showed shocked expressions.
"Mr. Jack...are you playing such a big game?!"
The gold nugget shouted in surprise.
"Stop talking nonsense! Get ready!"
Dongyang said excitedly.
"All three of our guilds must take action. This is a rare and major event! And we are all involved in it. Just thinking about it is exciting!"
…
…
…
It was evening.
The setting sun at dusk was like a ball of light soaked in blood, casting a scarlet light on the entire Amber City.
As if it foreshadows something.
The residents of Amber City were unaware of the impending disaster and continued to work, live and study as usual.
Suddenly, a blood-red "meteor" fell from the sky.
Countless people looked up, exclaimed, and even prayed to the gods they believed in.
boom!!
There was a loud bang .
Boom boom
The violent shaking was like an earthquake, and many residents of Amber City felt this natural disaster.
In the attic of the villa in Pompeii Estate.
The Viscount's family, Sibert and Maledice, the grandfather and grandson, were gathered here. They saw the "red meteor" falling through the open window and their faces changed drastically.
"Is it true? Will Amber City also face a disaster like Pyrite City?!"
"Oh my sun... this is horrible!"
At this time, a deep male voice came from behind everyone:
"Don't worry, everyone. Mr. Jack will take care of everything... He will protect Amber City just like he did a year ago and save everyone from disaster."
Pompey, Maledice and others turned around and looked behind them.
Golov, Patton, Morey and Connie are all here. The one who spoke just now was Golov, who was wearing a bowler hat.
The four of them looked solemn.
Mr. Jack returned to the manor a few hours ago and told them that the plan had changed. He arranged for four people to come to Pompeii Manor to protect these friends. Even Mrs. Caroline and Mr. Tote were temporarily brought here to settle down.
Only Floy and Noah stayed with Mr. Jack.
"But... that terrible meteor just now seemed to have fallen right where Jack's Manor is!"
Rei said worriedly.
Everyone felt very heavy.
"Mr. Jack's talk of moving was all lies... He had long wanted to face this disaster by himself! Just like before, he stood up without saying anything and stood in front of everyone..."
Rebecca clenched the corner of her clothes with her little hands, her eyes a little moist.
She turned to look at Viscount Pompey.
"Dad, is Mr. Jack okay?"
"Of course not."
Viscount Pompey suppressed his worries and put on a smile.
He stroked his daughter's golden hair and said comfortingly:
"Rebecca, have you forgotten how Mr. Jack saved our family... and how he fought against the evil guys and protected Amber City. He is Mr. Black Messenger, the angel of the God of Foreign Lands, and the protector of Amber City... He is very powerful, and he will be fine."
The Viscount's tone was firm.
Mrs. Pompey also came over and gently hugged Rebecca.
The family began to whisper prayers for Mr. Jack.
Seeing this, Maledice let out a long sigh.
"The Empire's army...is probably powerless in the face of such a mysterious force."
He took Ree's hand and joined in the prayer.
"Mr. Jack is the most noble person I have ever met in my life... He is a respectable man, Rui Yi, let us pray for him."
"Yes, Grandpa."
The grandfather and grandson bowed their heads silently, praying that Mr. Jack would be safe and overcome the disaster.
The four Golovs looked at each other. Except for Connie, the other three men lowered their heads in shame.
Although the leader asked them to protect these ordinary people, they actually knew in their hearts that it was because they were not strong enough that participating in the battle would not only be of no help, but might even hinder them.
…
…
…
Jack Manor.
At this moment, this place has turned into a ruin.
Countless smoke and building debris were scattered everywhere, and the garden that was originally beautifully decorated by Floy had become a mess.
The culprit is that terrifying red meteorite!
It fell from the sky and hit the villa building directly, causing the current situation.
Dozens or even hundreds of players were gathered around the manor, staring at the scene in amazement.
The leader was Dongyang and others.
Almost all the circus players in Amber City are present.
They received the notice and accepted the mission from the Jack statue in the lakeside cabin and came to fight alongside Mr. Jack.
The enemy is clear, it is the man in the crater...
Amidst the smoke and dust, a tall man in a red robe slowly walked out.
This man had long red hair that reached his waist and was extremely handsome, even a little seductive.
"Mr. Fortune Teller... It seems that you have anticipated this and are waiting for me here?"
Rafa chuckled.
The sound was not loud, but everyone could hear it.
Dozens of meters in front of Rafa, there were three figures standing.
"Archbishop Rafa, I welcome your visit, but isn't it a bit rude to destroy my house just to meet you?"
Chen Lun responded with a polite smile.
Floy and Noah stood quietly behind Chen Lun, each entering combat mode. One of them held a large black and purple sickle upside down, and the other held a paintbrush with a bloody easel at his feet.
"This is my gift, Mr. Fortune Teller. Do you like it?"
Rafa walked towards Chen Lun step by step with a faint smile on his face.
"I have an even bigger gift for you, just like last time... You've made rapid progress. In just over a year, you've already reached the end of Sequence 7, and are only one step away from entering Sequence 6..."
Rafa raised his hand, and a pinch of deep black-purple flame appeared in his palm.
"But this is not enough, Fortune Teller... Oh no, I should call you Mr. Magician, Jack... This time you will die."
He smiled.
The players held their breath.
In their eyes, the boss of the Red Apple Church is an enemy that cannot be defeated in the current version and is extremely powerful.
Only a plot character of Mr. Jack's level can fight against him.
Their goal is simple, just to come and participate in the battle as much as possible and increase their output contribution. If they can get some bargains, that would be even better .
In everyone's sight, Mr. Jack in the black hat suddenly jumped up.
boom!
In the blink of an eye, he crossed a distance of dozens of meters and smashed the red-haired man's head with the silver cane in his hand.
A violent scream sounded, and a silver light suddenly appeared!
"You're the one who's going to die, Rafa."
