Volume 7 Coral Chapter 656: Showdown
"This suspension came too suddenly."
The Polaris Squad left the main group and walked quickly in the opposite direction . Dog-Headed Gold followed in the team and complained.
"There really aren't any signs ... I just don't know how long this update will take. We just planned to help Brother Beizi complete the promotion ceremony, but unfortunately we don't have enough time."
Pumpkin glanced at the panel and found that there was only more than an hour left before he was forced to log off, and said with regret on his face.
The team had previously discussed and planned that the North Star Saint's promotion ceremony required them to intervene in major events and participate in changing the fate of a high-ranking person, so they planned to use Byron's power to follow their own high-ranking people in the war to attack and kill the high-ranking people in the Empire camp.
Polaris shook his head.
"Forget it. The success rate is low to begin with... Let's wait until the version update is finished and it goes online before thinking of other ways."
"What bad luck! The Madman School's 'Comet Group' originally sent out two 'Great Wizards', but the History and Ritual Association simply ran away, and several bases were abandoned. Otherwise, maybe they would have taken this opportunity to complete promotion... This is the first Saint player in the entire server! And he's our King of the Streets, Abei!"
The last sound was a giggle, and everyone smiled.
"As everyone knows, Wang Abei's last name is Su."
Polaris was also happy to make a joke.
There were gunfire and artillery fire everywhere, but the team's top players didn't care much and left chatting and laughing.
But at this moment, Polaris, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. Seeing this, the others couldn't help but stop as well.
"What's wrong? Brother Beizi?"
The Dragon King asked curiously.
But no one answered him, because everyone looked ahead in shock. When the Dragon King looked up, he was also stunned.
There was a man in a black hat and black clothes, holding a white cane, standing quietly in front of the crowd. Under the dark sky, straight trajectories of fire and bullets were sweeping, and the soldiers' shouts and explosions were heard one after another.
But that man seemed out of tune with all this.
The other party just looked at everyone with a calm gaze.
Above his head were four names that shone with brilliant gray light—
[The King of Blue Clothes]!
"The one in high position..."
The Dragon King was suddenly startled.
"No, even those in higher positions don't have such IDs. Their strength and status are even higher!"
Polaris said in a deep voice.
“I can’t see His message, not even His name!”
Everyone was shocked.
This strange mysterious man in front of him is far more powerful than the chief wizard of the Madman School's 'Comet Group'!
Looking at the Polaris team's doubtful expressions and their unfamiliar eyes, Chen Lun sighed inwardly.
Father Lie is worthy of being the strongest true god in the Sun Continent. He is already able to influence the players’ own cognition and make the world forget about him.
Chen Lun raised his cane indifferently, and the invisible power of authority and status radiated, washing over the members of the Polaris team.
Their cognition immediately returned to what it was before.
Polaris was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, not paying attention to his previous abnormal words and deeds, and shouted excitedly:
"teacher!"
The other high-level players in the team were also surprised.
It was Jack!
Didn't He die five years ago? !
In the battle where the Sun King fell, Jack tried to kill Emperor Andre the Great, but was killed by the white light of the Emperor. At that time, Jiaoyang and Sister Floy both died...
In the blink of an eye, everyone found Jack standing in front of them, greeting them with a smile:
"Long time no see, everyone."
"Teacher, you are really not dead, this is great!"
Polaris was very happy.
Chen Lun nodded.
"It's just a fake death trick to get promoted to an angel."
Angel!
Jack is now at the Sequence 2 angel level!
Everyone in the Polaris team sighed.
Most of them are internal test players. People like Su Keying, Ma Ren, Goutou Jin and others have been in contact with Jack since the beginning of the game. It can be said that they have watched each other step by step to where they are today.
Looking back, I suddenly felt a sense of participation and pride in witnessing the birth of an epic.
"Mr. Jack, can we still join you again?"
Dongyang took the opportunity to ask.
"We met Bishop Noah and Sister Maggie some time ago, and learned that the circus was disbanded, and that Pope Floyd had founded a new 'Church of Dawn'... We have not joined any forces over the years, and we still hope to return to your command."
Chen Lun just smiled slightly.
bite!
Everyone on the Polaris team immediately received a prompt on the panel.
[You have triggered the A-level side quest: Embrace the Dawn! ]
Mission Description: As senior members of the former circus organization, you have been wandering around for five years when the leader Jackspeter faked his death. In view of this, the King of Cangyi, who has awakened from the ritual and has been sublimated into an eternal existence, has decided to give you a chance to return to the organization.
(Note: This opportunity is only available once!)
Mission objective: Join the Church of Dawn.
Mission Reward: Become a "missionary" recognized by the church, obtain the corresponding identity token, and the right to freely enter and exit the "fairyland" of the Cangwang Kingdom.
Everyone's eyes lit up.
There was no need to hesitate. Team Polaris quickly chose to accept the mission and swore allegiance to the man in front of them on the spot.
A task completion notification pops up.
Soon he discovered that his attire had suddenly changed.
He wore a solemn and beautiful missionary robe in gray with gold patterns, and a brand new snake ring was quietly worn on his finger.
"If you have any questions, you can go to the Dawn Cathedral in the Fairyland Cat City in the future and ask the clergy inside."
Chen Lun chuckled.
"Yes, Mr. Jack."
Dongyang and others nodded quickly.
After doing this, Chen Lun looked at the North Star and said:
"Abei, I need your help."
"You say, teacher."
Polaris said, and quickly added:
"But the spirit world seems to be calling us. We will have to return to our hometown soon. We may have to wait for a while before we can come back..."
He couldn't explain the version update and the players' offline status, so he could only report the situation to the teacher using the terms in the game world.
"No problem."
Everyone saw that Jack still had that mysterious smile on his face.
"I need you to return to your hometown to complete this favor."
"ah?!"
The top players of the Polaris team were all stunned at the moment.
Jack what does this mean?!
He... Could it be that what He said is reality? !
No way? ! !
"Teacher, what are you doing..."
Polaris asked tentatively.
He suddenly remembered what happened five years ago, when the teacher casually warned himself and his teammates during a conversation, and perfectly predicted what everyone would encounter in reality.
It was also at that time that he gradually believed in the fact that games could affect reality... and the result was indeed the same, they successfully brought extraordinary powers into reality!
"When you return to your hometown, be careful, there will be unprecedented dangers."
Deep in Chen Lun's eyes, the mist flashed away, and he completely saw through the fate of everyone in the Polaris team, and thus saw a series of events that would happen to them in the future.
He didn't say it directly, but instead gave a reminder first.
"Unprecedented danger?"
The top players looked at each other in bewilderment.
Chen Lun just calmly uttered a brief sentence:
"Federal Armed Forces Division."
“?!”
This time, all the players in the team, including Polaris, were confused.
Jack actually knows things in reality? !
Is He just a piece of big data that monitors everyone's lives, or is He a real angel... with a power that no one can understand? !
Confusion, puzzlement and shock lingered in the hearts of the top players present.
"Don't be so surprised, strangers."
Chen Lun leaned on the white cane that he always carried with him, adjusted his hat elegantly, and raised the corners of his mouth.
"Destiny exists in everything, even the so-called 'homeland'... I saw your true destiny, and from it, I got a glimpse of a corner of your hometown."
He did not reveal his identity as a time traveler, but explained it in a more logical way.
"This is not a big deal. The world is huge, and there are even many worlds... And the world you and I are in now, do you think it is really just fiction? The people and things here are all non-existent... um, data?"
The meaningful smile on Chen Lun's lips was like a sledgehammer, hitting the foreheads of the top players of the Polaris team heavily.
In an instant, they felt their three perspectives shattered and their heads went dizzy.
If it were in the past, they would have simply laughed off Jack's words, treating them as an official Easter egg and prank from the game.
But now, they are really shaken.
After all, if the extraordinary can shine into reality, what is impossible?
"Mr. Jack, this..."
Dongyang opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say for a moment.
Chen Lun asked back:
"You seem to be treating this as a 'game'?"
The players were shocked and speechless.
Everyone suddenly felt that they were seen clearly by the man in front of them and there were no longer any secrets.
Even if they don’t say it, every player who enters "Mysterious Age" actually has an indescribable sense of "superiority" in their heart.
They subconsciously regard everything here as meaningless data. Even if it seems "intelligent", it is just an "algorithmic reaction" pieced together by supercomputers through simulating and learning the human way of thinking.
In the game, players are supposed to be the "master", the "God", the "king" who is not bound by reality and can vent freely!
But at this moment, they actually felt a little creepy.
An unspeakable fear.
"The federal government of your hometown has long discovered the secrets here. They developed a supercomputer as a 'bridge' connecting the two worlds, and then used major financial groups and social resources to promote it, attracting countless federal people to play this so-called 'game'... Their purpose is just to make a profit?"
Chen Lun asked again.
The calm tone of voice left everyone in the Polaris team speechless for a long time, their heartbeats frighteningly fast, and their faces filled with horror.
"this……"
