The sky is bright, and Chen Lun has been leaving with Noah and Anton for a long time.

Last night, Tamara rat man attacked, and he actually didn't take action personally, because there was no benefit from killing this kind of rat man, so it was better to let Noah and Anton add a little mystery accumulation.

There are many rats, but the strength of the individual is at best the level of human teenagers, even if they have claws and fangs, and even if they are armed with weapons, they are simply not enough to look at one person and one cow.

The battle lasted only a few dozen minutes, and the crazy rat-men were slaughtered by Noah and Anton.

When leaving, Chen Lun also passed by the Fountain of Youth, but he found that the spring water had disappeared...... Perhaps, as Lutina said, it "grew legs" and ran away.

This couldn't help but make him sigh, the Great Forest of Coleridge, like the Wonderland Nature Forest, always gave him a grotesque feeling. As for the men captured by the three gangsters, they had already been drowned by the rats and gnawed to the bone.

Chen Lun didn't care about this.

"Mr. Jack, this forest is so big."

Noah took advantage of the rest time to stand aside and look around, and spoke.

Chen Lun sat on a large rock, looking at the page that Lutina had left for him.

He heard Noah's words and chuckled and nodded.

"It's huge, the size of the Great Coleridge Forest is the size of a state city, and if you don't consider the hidden dangers in it, it would take at least a few months for ordinary people to go around it."

Chen Lun turned his head to look at Antonio again.

The cows were circling around a large tree, humming songs.

"Anton, what do you think of the environment of this forest?"

"I don't like ......"

Anton stopped, turned his head to Chen Lun and said.

"There are too many trees, and the grass here tastes weird...... I still prefer the prairie, the endless prairie."

Chen Lun smiled and shook his head.

He then looked to the deep pit on his left, a muddy swamp and a number of dead wood stakes...... According to Lutina's message, after passing through the swamp, she had to change direction and walk from the northwest to the northeast.

The exact principle is not clear, but these are the experiences of the locals.

This is the only way to finally reach the Augusta Mountains, otherwise you will get lost in the forest and keep going around.

Chen Lun took out another delicate compass and confirmed the northeast according to the direction he was pointing.

In fact, the compass did not work well in the Great Coleridge Forest, because it would often malfunction, and the needle would constantly jump and it would be impossible to figure out what was interfering with it.

But Chen Lun did not put all his hopes on the compass, he then performed two more divinations, and after confirming that the direction was correct, he continued to set off with Noah and Anton.

The physical fitness of the two cadres under his command is very good, Noah is a flesh and blood faction sequence six, and he is good at physical strength, and Anton has the extraordinary biological trait of "tireless", so Chen Lun is not worried that they will get tired because of the hurry.

"We're going to pick up the pace......

As he walked forward, he turned back to the two cadres and said.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Jack!"

Noah and Anton nodded in response.

Chen Lun chuckled, stepped on it, and the whole person flew out like an arrow, and disappeared in place in the blink of an eye. Noah and Antonio were slightly stunned, and then buried their heads in pursuit.

In the lush dense forest, the two of them flashed like strange black shadows.

And so it was after a whole morning.

At about one o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Lun suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong, Mr. Jack?"

Noah's breath was a little short, and he asked Chen Lun suspiciously.

"Someone's coming towards us."

Chen Lun looked ahead and said calmly.

Noah frowned slightly.

Someone?

This forest area is so wide, how can anyone happen to bump into each other in the depths......

And the other party still knows their own movements?

Noah and Anton stood quietly beside Chen Lun, looking warily at the dense forest ahead.

Rustling......

Fallen leaves are trampled by footsteps, making a subtle sound.

The breeze blows and the woods sway.

I saw a small group of seven or eight people slowly walking out of the forest, led by a tall elk, and they came to Chen Lun and the three. The elk's huge antlers are like two miniature towering trees, with countless branches...... There are also some handicrafts of small wood carvings and colored stones hanging on it.

'This is a transcendent being......

Chen Lun thought to himself.

The men and women of the squad were all low-order transcendents, they were dressed in green robes, hoods and grass rings, holding short bows and spears, carrying quivers, and looking at Chen Lun and Noah Anton behind him with curiosity.

On the back of the elk, there is also an elderly female man, dressed in a cloak with a brown background and a pattern painted with white paint.

Chen Lun sensed an extraordinary power from the other party's body. Quietly using voyeurism, after checking the old man's panel, he learned that she was a [Natural Faction Sequence Five-Perfumer].

"Hello, guests from afar."

The old female spoke slowly.

Her gaze gently swept over Noah and Anton, and finally fixed on Chen Lun, and showed a faint smile.

"I am a priest of the Cult of Nature, Olga, and of course, you can also call me 'Julius, which, in nature, means 'mediator,'"

"Hello, Priest Olga."

Chen Lun politely held the black hat and greeted him.

He didn't want to conflict with the Naturalist Sect, so he said:

"We're just passing through the Great Coleridge Forest, not intruding into the territory of the Nature Cult...... I beg your pardon for any offense."

"Not offensive...... We have never made the Great Forest of Coleridge a cult territory where all things can thrive, and I know you have no ill will."

Olga said.

She stroked the elk's forehead.

"I'm here because 'Lady Elk, he wants to see you, Mr. Jack.'"

"Lady Elk......

Chen Lun was slightly stunned.

Of course he knows who the other party is Mrs. Elk...... That is the Pope of the Nature Sect, who has ruled the Nature Sect for thousands of years, and is an extremely powerful and veteran man!

"You know me?"

He was surprised.

"Of course."

Olga nodded.

"Although the Nature Sect lives in seclusion deep in the Great Forest, it is not ignorant of the outside world...... In the recent turmoil of the Empire, we have tried to win the seat of the Orthodox Church, but failed, and finally the Council of Generosity has taken the throne...... Mr. Jack is one of the ten consuls of the Senate, and we have heard of it."

Chen Lun looked at the old man in front of him, thought for a while, and asked tentatively:

"I see...... I wonder why Lady Elk wants to see me? I don't seem to have had any contact with your sect before."

Olga glanced at Chen Lun deeply and said slowly:

"Her Majesty told Lady Elk about your arrival in the forest, and it piqued his interest...... Don't worry, Mr. Jack, we have a kind invitation, and you can treat it as a visit, and we will respect your wishes whether you come or not."

'Holy Maiden? Whose ...... is this?

Chen Lun frowned slightly.

He pondered for a moment.

I have no grudge against the Natural Sect, and if the other party wants to be unfavorable to me, I can directly send people to surround him, after all, this is their territory...... Let Olga's team come over to contact him, and he can see that the other party is indeed sincere.

So he nodded, and spoke:

"In that case, then

Please, lead the way, Priest Olga."

"You're welcome, you should be."

Olga smiled.

She whispered something to the elk again, and the tall elk slowly turned around and led the way into the woods.

Chen Lun greeted Noah and Anton and followed closely behind.

The men and women of the Nature Sect in the group did not communicate with each other, and although they seemed curious about themselves, the atmosphere was very quiet, and it could be seen that their discipline was quite good.

After walking like this for about twenty minutes, the group walked through the woods and came to a lake.

The wide open space is lined with wooden and stone houses, watchtowers and fences, which seem to be a protection against dangerous creatures in the forest. The settlement was filled with plainly dressed residents, who stopped and saluted when they saw the return of Olga's team.

It seems that Olga has a high status here.

"This is a human settlement blessed by the Cult of Nature, and their ancestors were considered the former owners of this land...... After the unification of the mainland by the Trisur Empire, many people who lost their country fled here, and for thousands of years, many descendants have multiplied here."

She turned back to Chen Lun and explained.

"It turned out to be a civilization left over from the previous era."

Chen Lun nodded and sighed.

"Here, please."

Olga sat on the elk and led Chen Lun to the depths of this hermitage settlement.

Until everyone came to a towering tree.

At the bottom of this tree, there is a huge hole in the tree, which is like a gate.

"This cave is connected to the 'Sacred Tree Roots' underground, which leads to the headquarters of the Natural Sect......

Olga led the team into the tree hole and spoke slowly.

Chen Lun knew that the sacred tree in her mouth was an incarnation of the Mother Nature goddess "Lady Sacred Tree", and that the natural sect was established next to the sacred tree and served on it for generations.

After entering the tree hole, Chen Lun found that it was not as dark as he imagined, but transparent and bright...... On the inner wall of the thick roots, there are countless mushrooms that emit light, which play a role in lighting.

Countless tendrils are entrenched here, forming a passage.

A moment later.

Chen Lun estimated that he had followed Olga and the others, descended to a depth of dozens of meters underground, and followed the crooked root passage towards the unknown area.

Dozens of minutes passed, and the passage gradually rose and then returned to the ground.

Wow!

A blinding white light flashed.

I heard the crisp chirping of birds.

Chen Lun used the "five senses" to avoid the discomfort of his gaze and saw a scene like a fairyland on earth...... As far as the eye can see, there are countless houses made of giant mushrooms and tree stumps.

Flowers, butterflies and many never-before-seen plants are everywhere, and birds are singing and fragrant.

Chen Lun saw such a beautiful scenery, and his mood was cheerful.

At the end of the cluster of houses is a huge tree that rises to the sky, and the highest point is even hidden by clouds...... It glows with a faint golden glow, a little illusory, and there are even wooden houses and pedestrians on the thick branches of the city streets.

He knew that it was the "sacred tree" of the Natural Sect!

On the road ahead, there are already several teams of people waiting for a long time.

They were all women, beautiful in appearance and slender in figures, wearing slender blue and white robes and carrying delicate spears on their backs. On the helmets of these natural cult guards, you can still see the pattern of tree roots, and there is a long blue tassel on the top of their heads.

Chen Lun's eyes narrowed slightly, this group of female guards are all middle-order transcendentals, according to this specification, they are analogous to other orthodox churches, which are equivalent to the elite transcendent squads of "Lamp Guards" and "Executioners".

"The Sacred Tree Guard has seen the Olga Priests."

The group of valiant women saluted the old woman riding the elk.

for

The captain of the head was extremely hot, and she strode forward, removing her helmet and revealing a delicate face. His white hair particularly attracted Chen Lun's attention and naturally scattered.

"This is the captain of the Sacred Tree Guard, Golian."

Olga introduced to Chen Lun.

This is another [Nature Faction Sequence 5 - Perfumer], but it seems to be more melee oriented.

"Golion has met Mr. Jack, and the Nature Sect welcomes you."

The white-haired captain smiled.

She leaned slightly sideways, her hand pointing in a direction behind her.

"Before you meet Lady Elk, please take a seat in the Sanctuary, Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Who is your holy woman?"

Chen Lun had always been puzzled, so he took the opportunity to ask.

"You should have seen me before."

At this moment, a familiar female voice came.

Chen Lun looked up and saw a mature and tall young woman walking slowly, and the group of sacred tree guards retreated one after another, making way for them.

The woman was dressed in a white cut-out gown that resembled a backless evening gown, with long blond hair falling naturally and an emerald green pendant hanging from her left ear.

"Hello, Jack."

The beautiful woman smiled and had a very nice voice.

Chen Lun vaguely saw the familiar facial features from the other party's face, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Lutina ......?"

His tone was a little uncertain.

Because Lutina's appearance is very immature, but the saint in front of her is obviously a lot more mature.

"Lutina was created by me a long time ago...... life."

The other party thought for a while and said.

"But you can call me that, after all, I like the name."

'Creation of life......

Chen Lun was secretly surprised in his heart.

This is by no means something that ordinary people in high positions can do......

The saintess "Lutina" in front of her is very likely to surpass [Sequence 4]!

"I saw you in her eyes, and I'm sorry I told Lady Elk about it without your consent...... After all, you're a young man who is valued by Sister Maggie, and I think there's something unusual about you."

Lutina said softly.

The "she" in his mouth was obviously referring to the owner and guide of the White Gull Travel Agency, a girl with a golden double ponytail.

Chen Lun was very surprised by Lutina's words.

The other party calls Maggie, the god of cats, his sister......

Could it be said?

Ignoring the surprised gazes of everyone present, Lutina walked directly to Chen Lun, leaned over and sniffed at his chest.

"Hmm...... Sister Maggie has a very strong flavor and is worthy of his favorite, and Lady Elk will love you, Jack."

His eyes smiled like a crescent moon and whispered.

The two sides were so close that Chen Lun could even smell the rich floral fragrance on Lutina's body.
