Chapter 226: The Wolf and the Orchid
Airplanes!
A figure quickly streaked through the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it was far away.
The [Colorful Wings] behind Chen Lun trembled at high frequency, and he flew forward without looking back.
The body has long been unable to support the limit state, and is forced to return to the original state. Ignoring the style of wings that is too girly, Chen Lun now just wants to get away from Sunflower City as soon as possible.
Just now, after he threw out the [Cat God Charm], he immediately exchanged positions with the cards, and then put the coffin into the Blood Poetry Ring as quickly as possible, soared into the sky, and quickly fled.
'I didn't get a kill prompt, so it seems that the old guy is quite capable of resisting...... Maybe it's not the real divine punishment that was brought by the charm, otherwise he would definitely die! ’
Chen Lun thought sadly.
There was a glowing green light all over his body, which was that he was using the [Sting] bookmark to transform the sanity value in the statue and restore his vitality.
The battle just now consumed a lot of his blood bar, but fortunately, there was a big killing weapon like a charm, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get out so easily.
Fortunately, Mr. Byers' body has been reclaimed...... Let's get out of here first! ’
The wings behind Chen Lun flapped faster, and the strong wind blowing in his face made him almost unable to open his eyes.
The reason why he didn't choose to escape from the spirit world was also because he was worried that there would be an ambush, and he was flying high in the air in this world, and with his speed, few people could catch up.
'Deliver the coffin to Mr. Biles' designated location, and the rewards I get after completing this mission, plus the experience points I gained from leading the player to destroy the three Red Apple Branches, should be enough for me to reach the full level.......'
Chen Lun thought to himself, full of anticipation.

Half a day later.
Chen Lun's figure appeared on the outskirts of Amber City.
To be on the safe side, he spent hours flying at high altitudes, feeling that he was far enough away from Sunflower City to enter the spirit realm and start shuttling.
His caution was correct, because at this moment, in the spiritual realm near Sunflower City, there were indeed many elite transcendents of the Sun Church.
It's a pity that they didn't wait for the black knight, nor did they see Chen Lun.
It's a battle of wits and courage with the air.
A moment later.
Chen Lun came to a ruin.
What once seemed like a small city is now nothing but ruins, covered in countless vegetation and revealing only traces of its past.
'It was supposed to be the predecessor of Amber City...... It is said that hundreds of years ago, there was not a single large city in the area, but dozens of small towns scattered around the area, which later came together to develop into Amber City. ’
Chen Lun's heart flashed through the history books he had read, and he secretly sighed.
Time always inadvertently erases the traces of humanity.
窸窸窣窣窣......
At this moment, there was a slight noise in the bushes on one side.
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows and stopped.
Spiritual intuition didn't warn him, and he guessed what it should be a wild animal.
Sure enough, a dumbfounded black bear head sprang out, and after staring at Chen Lun with big eyes for a few moments, there was a trace of confusion in his eyes.
It twisted its huge body and slowly came to Chen Lun.
'This bear...... It's a bit strange that it doesn't seem to be affected by my charm, and even [Animal Friends] doesn't work. ’
Chen Lun showed a look of curiosity.
Suddenly.
Whew!
The big black bear was inexplicably irritable, and he waved his paws and slapped at Chen Lun.
Chen Lun frowned, and gave it a big pocket with his backhand.
Syllable!
The black bear was stunned by this slap, his head was dizzy for a long time, and he didn't put down his raised paws, which looked like a schoolboy who was in a hurry to raise his hand to answer a question.
The next second, it turned and ran, a low whimper coming out of its mouth.
The more Chen Lun looked at it, the more strange he felt.
What the hell is this?
He didn't catch up, now was not the time to be curious about a black bear, the main thing was to put Mr. Biles' body back in place.
Chen Lun shook his head slightly and continued to march towards the depths of the ruins.
After a few more moments, he stopped again and turned his head to look behind his right.
The big black bear is here again.
Just as Chen Lun was about to raise his hand to give it a push, it spoke:
"It's me."
This is the voice of Byers.
Chen Lun was slightly startled, coughed lightly, and raised his hand...... Take off your hat and bow to each other.
"Mr. Byers, what are you ......?"
"I've been waiting for you here for a while."
Black Bear said.
There was some apology in its eyes.
"As time went by, my memory got worse and worse, and I often forgot who I was......"
Chen Lun was shocked in his heart, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He was shocked that the Black Knight would have indirect amnesia, and he was relieved because:
So I slapped his old man in the face just now, I don't remember it, right......? ’
Chen Lun immediately took the coffin out of the Blood Poetry Ring and placed it on the ground with a bang.
He didn't care if the other party remembered it, so he diverted the topic first.
"Mr. Biles, I have brought your body back."
The black bear nodded, admiration in his eyes.
"Well done, Jack."
He slowly stroked the coffin and let out a low laugh.
"Thank you so much...... In this way, I can also enjoy the next battle. ”
"Is it the Church of the Sun, the Church of the Moon, and the Asylum?"
Chen Lun said in a deep voice.
The black bear was a little surprised, but nodded anyway.
"Hmmm......"
He sat down on the coffin, and after a few seconds of silence, a deep voice began:
"I didn't tell you before why I was hunted......
I used to be affiliated with the Moon Church and served as the leader of Team 4 'Purple Moonlight', and it was an unforgettable memory...... My lover, 'Yulan' Ogett, is a member of the Church of the Sun's 'Lamp Keepers' team. ”
The black bear paused, a little distracted.
"She is very good, extremely talented, and soon promoted to [Sequence 6 - Sun Priest] and became the new captain......"
He suddenly turned his head to look at Chen Lun.
"Do you know, Jack, in fact, there were changes in the spirit world many years ago, when countless pollution sources were inexplicably born, and even affected the present world...... In order to prevent the large-scale spread of these pollutions, the Empire convened the Seven Orthodox Churches and sent a very large number of elite transcendents to the spirit realm.
But then ......"
The black bear spoke calmly.
"Youlan is dead."
Chen Lun listened silently, although he knew some of the background stories of the Black Knight, it was far from being as detailed as the other party's own words.
At the same time, Chen Lun also knew that the reason why the Black Knight defected and fell into his current situation was precisely because of his wife Youlan.
"My beloved died at the hands of a powerful polluting creature, no, a creature of darkness...... Although they are full of mystical pollution, they come from the deeper world of the spirit world, which is called the 'dark world'. ”
The black bear took a deep breath.
"I was determined to die to avenge her, but I couldn't...... I was too weak to be able to kill him even if I was seriously wounded and dying...... In the end, it was another team of 'lantern guards' who came and repelled it, and I survived.
Oh, the captain of that team at that time was named 'Terrence', and he took the remnants of Yulan with his own hands, and I could only watch and do nothing.
Even if I later applied to my superiors to get Youlan back, I was ruthlessly rejected.
I don't take Terrence's insults to me to heart, but he shouldn't disrespect Youlan. ”
The black bear chuckled and made a oozing sound.
"They said, it's something that belongs to the Church of the Sun, and I don't have the right to have it...... Yes, I'm just a captain of the Moon Church, how can I get my hands on the tricks of another church?
That's their tools, their weapons, their things...... Except not my lover. ”
The black bear stopped speaking, and was silent for a long time.
A black light suddenly burst out from its body and burrowed into the coffin.
Squeak——!
The coffin board was slowly removed, and a figure in pitch-black armor slowly stood up, he was wearing a wolf helmet and couldn't see his appearance, but Chen Lun could clearly feel a suppressed anger.
The body of the Black Knight Byers!
His invisible sense of oppression made Chen Lun's breath stagnate, and the other party's current strength was probably only one step away from the sage!
"So I attacked the Sun Church branch and recaptured Youlan."
The black knight pestle held a pitch-black long sword and said flatly.
"Even if you die at the end of the world, you will not hesitate."
A golden light flew out from behind him, flickered in the air a few times and fell into the palm of his hand, turning into a pale yellow orchid.
The Black Knight gently sniffed the flower under the wolf's helmet.
"This time, I'm going to let those people taste the pain, and no one can separate us...... And one day, I'll kill Terrence, even though he's now one of the twelve bishops of the Abbey of the Sun.
I'm going to kill all the monsters of the dark world, they're the ones who ruined everything! ”

Chen Lun was sitting on the train.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he chose to take the train back to Amber City, which was also considered to give himself a little rest.
The past few days of rushing and fighting have made him feel tired both physically and mentally.
Chen Lun looked at the scenery outside the window and fell into deep thought.
After he delivered Mr. Byers' body, the task was completed, and the rewards were settled.
But after listening to the other party's past, his mood was a little heavy.
Indeed, as Mr. Biles said, his defection sounded so ridiculous, but Chen Lun was a little emotional, and it was always sympathetic to being persistent and desperate for love.
He remembered the task he had triggered from Mr. Biles before leaving—
[Trigger A-rank mission: Wolf and Orchid!] 】
Mission description: The Church of the Sun, the Church of the Moon, and the Asylum will be rounded up by Beiers Wolff, and you can choose to stand by or help.
Youlan is gone, and the wolf's ending may change because of your choices.
If it is said that lovesickness can also sleep, it will be cut and forgotten by the oath.
Rewards: 40,000 XP, 120 gold pounds, Byers' favorability and skill [Byers' Ultimate Sword - Youlan].
This task.
Chen Lun finally chose to accept.
As he had said and promised to Biles, he would not sit idly by.
'Maybe that's the last mission......
He sighed.
