Stilton's alienated beast head flew in the air like a leather ball.

Then he crossed an arc, plopped up, fell into the nearby river, and disappeared without a trace.

Under the cover of night, there is no longer the slightest wave.

[You killed Brother Sturton (possessed by Bishop Newman) of the Red Apple Church and gained 500 XP]

[Your actions have had a profound impact, and the Red Apple Church will treat you as an enemy and hunt you down!] 】

Chen Lun was dismissive of the striking crimson tooltip.

He walked a few steps to the spot where Stilton had fallen, and bent down to pick up the two things.

【D-Rank Trick Golden Goblet】

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

Pouring fresh virgin blood into a cup will communicate with another cup bearer for twenty-four hours.

O scarlet brew, the fragrance of virginity, with thy soul as a messenger, send my gospel......

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

He squeezed it sharply, the glass in his hand creaking.

Then the tremendous force seemed to exceed some of its tolerance thresholds, and it shattered with a thud.

A [D-class artifact] was destroyed in this way.

"Whew...... Hateful stuff, you can't keep it! ”

Chen Lun destroyed it not just because the description of the item was uncomfortable.

It's even more because it's from the Red Apple Church, so it's very likely that he was manipulated, and it wouldn't be good if he was tracked down with this thing.

It didn't have much effect on him, so it was better to destroy it.

The gold fragment in his hand slowly softened and turned into gold clay.

The color fades and merges into a mass of red balls that resemble "meat puree".

[Obtain a low-rank Flesh Faction Mystic Substance]

Chen Lun included it in the panel, plus the original one, a total of four copies.

It's a precious thing and it's easy to use.

Whether it's crafting transcendent items in the future, forging artificial [Tricks], or advancing through the sequence, etc., there are places where they can be used.

Next, Chen Lun looked at his crossbow.

[C-class Tricky Gluttonous Tongue]

Item description: An old wooden miniature hand crossbow for easy portability.

On the side of the crossbow, there are tooth-like patterns carved into it, which seems to indicate that it contains the power of flesh and blood.

Instead of reloading the bolt, pull the trigger to fire a decoy bolt that attracts Gluttonous Spirits from the Spirit Realm to gnaw at the target.

It seems to have originated from a giving gourmet.

He is passionate about cooking a variety of cuisines to entertain his guests.

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

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

Item Effect: The person who is hit by the arrow will temporarily deduct 10% of the maximum health and 30% of the maximum effect. And fell into a state of extreme hunger.

Item Cost: Each bolt will deduct a significant amount of stamina, depending on the situation.

Chen Lun was a little surprised by this [Strange Thing], the quality and effect were surprisingly good, and it was even comparable to some relatively thin [B-grade Strange Things].

A hand crossbow with infinite ammo in a sense.

The lethality is also amazing, the higher the opponent's HP, the higher the income, it is simply a blood cow nemesis!

What is the price of extracting physical strength, Chen Lun even wanted to shout out that sentence loudly-

Come! Squeeze me dry!

Chen Lun pinned the crossbow to his waist, turned around and walked back.

Because of the pursuit of Stuarton, he walked a little farther, and there were still some remnants of the Red Apple Church that had not been cleared.

In order to allow the majority of players to have a better game experience after coming to this world, Chen Lun decided to reduce the difficulty for them and artificially weaken a wave of version villains.

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

"I just don't know how many good things are still hidden in the church......?"

"This kind of evil way is sure to fish and flesh neighbors and exploit civilians, I must collect all the stolen money they collect!"

The more Chen Lun thought about it, the more angry he became, and his steps 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 and bent down to close his wide eyes.

On a bench behind him, a small box was arranged.

It contained the belongings that Chen Lun had collected after searching the entire church.

In the process of scourging, he found some bread, and after eating it, he relieved his hunger.

He also killed the remnants of the church's guards and rotten hounds, gaining a lot of experience points.

And Chen Lun also found a secret passage to the suburbs in a hidden corner.

He guessed it was connected to the previous prison.

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

176 gold pounds, 684 silver knights, 3455 bronze crowe!

It can be said that it is a wave of fat, and Chen Lun unceremoniously accepted it.

Bang!!

Chen Lun tilted his head sharply.

A blazing wave of air and a sharp sound of breaking the air passed in his ears, followed by an extra hole in the prayer table in front of him, and sawdust flew.

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

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

Each of them had an old-fashioned one-handed flintlock pistol, and one of them had a gun with smoke rising from the muzzle of the gun, apparently fired by him.

Chen Lun narrowed his eyes when he saw this, and raised his hands to face the two of them.

Hospice......

The Empire's official Transcendental Order, a violent organization dedicated to containing and suppressing the Strange and Wild Transcendents.

Chen Lun was familiar with them.

In previous lives, the largest number of players joined this faction.

Because although the shelter is not the Seven Righteous God Forces, he has the support of the imperial royal family behind him.

Powerful and with a wide range of promotion paths and rewards to choose from.

"Just the two of you?"

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

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

Although you are a transcendent, there are countless transcendents that we have captured with our own hands, and I don't believe you can try it. ”

One of the investigators said coldly.

"But now that you only have two guns, are you sure you can hit me?"

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

The two investigators looked at each other in a subtle way and reached a consensus.

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

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

The two of them suddenly had stars in their eyes, and an indescribable feeling of nausea arose.

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

Boom! Boom!

Chen Lun knocked the two down with two punches and picked up the flintlock pistols in their hands.

This musket is a black-tech weapon created in the Vault's extraordinary workshop, capable of loading ten buckshot bullets at a time.

Although it is not a [trickery], it can be popularized by ordinary investigators.

Almost everyone has one hand, and the deterrent effect is extremely strong.

As long as more than three investigators gather fire, the low-level transcendents are still likely to kneel.

After all, the low sequence has not yet broken away from the flesh and blood, and under the dense firepower, there are almost no dead and no life.

Five minutes later.

Chen Lun stood at the door of the church, looking at the four investigators who were lined up on the ground and still 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 inside the church door.

Boom!!

The projectile hits the oil pot that has been set up in advance, and the spark explodes, igniting the thatched pile below.

Suddenly the flames rose and gradually engulfed the entire church.

Chen Lun turned to leave.

Behind him was a sea of fire.

Rumble!!

The church that had stood for many years collapsed, and the fire became more and more terrifying, like daylight.

Many residents who woke up in the middle of the night hid behind their windows and watched the scene they would never forget for years.

Excitedly or silently, chanting gods or whispering prayers.

Ralph stood not far from the church, silently pausing.

Several investigators who had been knocked unconscious by Chen Lun had already woken up at this time, standing behind him with their heads down, not daring to make a sound.

"Team leader, do you want to chase? That guy probably hasn't gone far......"

"Chasing?"

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

The smoke spat onto the face of the investigator who spoke, and he couldn't open his eyes.

But he didn't dare to really close his eyes, so he could only stiffen up, tears flowing.

"Just a few of you guys who act on your own?"

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

"You should be grateful to her."

Ralph pointed to the female corpse on the ground.

Several investigators looked at each other.

Ralph bent down to pick up the gold coin from the female corpse's eyelids and placed it in his palm, a little distracted.

"The reason why he didn't kill you is probably because he wants the shelter to give her a decent funeral."

With a flick of his fingers, the gold coin fell into the hands of one of the investigators.

"Go ahead, find the Moon Church, and bury this woman's corpse...... By the way, I found her family and gave some compensation. ”

Ralph rubbed his temples in annoyance.

"Think of it as us helping the Red Apple Church clean up the mess."

“…… Yes, Team Leader. ”

Ralph dropped his cigar, sniffed it out, and looked into the distance.

"I miscalculated."

……

Outside the town bridge.

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

Under the dark sky, the town seems extremely quiet.

[Complete B-Rank Side Quest: Shattered Emerald Apple]

[You successfully destroy the Red Apple Church branch in Emerald Town, and you will receive the quest rewards: 5000 XP, 20 Gold Pounds, Floi Opinion, [Low Sequence Flesh Faction Mystic Substance]*3, and 1 Regional Singing Credit]

[The Red Apple Church's favorability towards you has declined, and it will treat you like an enemy, and will hunt you down to the end, and never die!] 】

Chen Lun smiled at the last hint.

This quest is triggered when he infiltrates the Red Apple Church and kills the first Warden.

He was very pleased with the rewards, especially the popularity of the region.

It is equivalent to prestige and is applied to all NPCs.

Not only is it similar to Charisma, but there are even more unexpected benefits.

For example, after joining a faction, some rare items and precious rewards require a certain degree of popularity to be eligible for them.

But on the other hand, the difficulty of obtaining the degree of singing is also extremely harsh, and ordinary people can't reach it at all.

"Where are we going now?"

Floy asked softly as she sat aside.

"To the future."

Chen Lun said jokingly and chuckled.

Then he shouted out of the carriage:

"Uncle Walsh, let's go!"

"Yes, your Excellency, as you wish."
