Chapter 408: Lady Elk

Chen Lun knew in his heart that the "Maggie breath" that Lutina said in her mouth was most likely the blessing [natural favor] from the god of cats.

He had already raised this blessing to the full level, so the other party would say that the breath was strong.

Chen Lun followed Lutina down the clean and holy white masonry road, and the members of the sect who passed by on both sides looked peaceful, and when they saw the two of them, they all stopped and bowed.

As a saint, Lutina had no pretensions, and whoever saluted him would smile in return and bow her head slightly.

Behind the two were the Olga priests riding elks and several teams of sacred tree guards.

The group was heading towards the "Holy Church".

"Have you seen Sister Maggie?"

Lutina tilted her head slightly and asked Chen Lun softly.

"I was lucky enough to meet ......"

He replied.

Although he didn't see the other party's true face with his own eyes, Maggie, the god of cats, possessed Bib that time, which was also an alternative encounter.

"Do you know how He is? It's been twenty years since I last met Sister Maggie...... I miss Him a little. ”

Lutina's tone was slightly melancholy.

"I heard that he was planning a great thing for his beloved, and he went to the dream world many times, even at the expense of fighting the lady of sighs......"

Chen Lun was a little surprised when he heard about this for the first time.

Maggie, the god of cats, actually fought with the Lady of Sighs among the Three Ladies of Pain?

He shook his head and replied:

"It's been a long time since I've heard a response from Her Majesty Maggie......"

This is telling the truth.

Ever since the Murder Club became the Orthodox Church, he had tried to contact Philip and Maggie, but both of them had disappeared as if they had disappeared.

This also made Chen Lun depressed for a while, after all, the two of them can be regarded as his important connections and help, if he can get their help, many things will be more confident.

"That's a pity......"

Lutina sighed softly.

The crowd is now in the sanctuary.

Nestled at the foot of the sacred tree, the building is a large building made of white stone bricks and has a beautiful fresco of animals on the faΓ§ade. The sixteen huge wooden stakes that serve as the pillars of the temple are ivory-white and covered with spiral patterns, giving it a sense of epic.

Chen Lun sat in the guest seat under the guidance of a green-robed maid.

Noah and Anton's position is on his side.

Also seated were Olga Priest and Captain Golion of the Sacred Tree Guard.

"Please, this is a 'Fausto tea' unique to the Great Forest of Coleridge, with a sweet and rich aftertaste...... Lady Elk is especially fond of it, and I hope you will too. ”

Lutina raised her hand, and the green-robed maid brought hot tea to Chen Lun's hand.

Chen Lun thanked him, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

The taste was as Lutina had said, wonderful.

"Jack, the destination of your trip is the Augusta Mountains?"

Lutina asked softly.

"Yes, I came with a letter for a friend."

Chen Lun put down the teacup and said.

Lutina thought for a moment and smiled.

"Hmm...... The Augusta Mountains are inaccessible, and the only thing I can think of is the Meteor Tower's Fredetrine Hermit. ”

"It's this great magician......"

Chen Lun did not deny it, and directly stated the purpose.

Lutina shook her head.

"If you want to get a letter to Him, I'm afraid it's a little difficult...... The hermit of Fredtri studied magic in years of retreat, and was almost never seen, and even when Lady Elk came to visit, he rarely had the opportunity to see him. ”

Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.

He didn't expect that the difficulty of this task was because the other party was rare to see.

But Lutina changed her tone and said with relief:

"However, as a high-ranking member of the magic faction, the hermit of Fredetri is also extremely good at divination, so perhaps he has already learned of your arrival at this moment...... If He wants to see you, you will see Him on this trip. ”

Chen Lun heard the subtext.

That is, whether this task can be completed or not depends on what Fredtri means.

If He didn't want to see him, then the trip would probably be in vain.

Chen Lun only wanted the great magician to know his intentions, and at the same time left his feelings for the student Carmen......

"Thank you for your doubts, Your Majesty Lutina."

Chen Lun thanked the holy woman.

Immediately afterward, Lutina looked at Noah, the bespectacled boy beside him.

"Young man, can you show me those paintings from before you?"

Noah looked surprised.

He soon remembered that he had promised the guide girl Lutina the previous day to show her his paintings, but had not been able to fulfill his promise because of the sudden arrival of the rats.

Now this saint of the natural sect is obviously talking about this.

"Sorry, I forgot ......"

Noah stood up and said with some embarrassment.

"It's okay, it's not too late."

Lutina smiled kindly.

Noah blushed slightly, and after consulting Chen Lun's opinion with his eyes, he took out the work he had completed in the forest from his painting bag. He handed the painting to the green-robed maid beside him, who delivered it to Lutina.

Chen Lun took the opportunity to glance at Noah's paintings, which were "Rats", "Hunter's Cabin" and "Forest Night Scene". With Chen Lun's level of appreciation, I can't tell its value, but I think it's very realistic, even more textured than photos.

"I can see that you don't have much experience with static landscapes, and although the paintings are realistic, they lack details that can move people......"

Lutina looked at the painting in her hand and smiled.

Then he spoke:

"But I appreciate your passion for painting, and it always reminds me of an old man, Clarenceo...... Are you interested in being my painting student, Noah? ”

"When you're a student?!"

Noah was surprised.

Even Chen Lun on the side couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

But what surprised him was more the old man "Clarenso" in Lutina's mouth. It sounds like the relationship between the two is very familiar.

"Yes."

Lutina laughed.

His slender hand lifted slightly, and he pointed around.

"Actually, what I'm best at is painting...... Most of the surviving murals of the Nature Sect were painted by me, as well as famous paintings from history that you have heard of, such as "The Sacred Tree", "Chasing Birds" and "The Great Cat God". ”

Chen Lun hadn't heard of the paintings Lutina was talking about, but he saw Noah's eyes lit up on the side, and he knew that these were obviously masterpieces.

"When Clarence was younger, he used to discuss paintings with me...... It's a pity ......"

He shook his head and said no more.

From the simple words, it can be heard that the relationship between Lutina and Clarence is very good, like friends.

Chen Lun knew what Lutina meant by the "pity" she sighed at the end...... Because Clarence has gone mad, polluted and mad by dreams, lurking beneath the abyss of the Crystal Mountains.

This is a glimmer of truth glimpsed from the wonderland.

Hearing Lutina's words, Noah's face showed a look of joy.

Except for his mother who hired a painting teacher for him when he was young, he has always relied on his own exploration when he grew up...... Now that he has reached the bottleneck of his skills, Noah is eager to have a guide who can guide and inspire him.

Under the crown of the saint in front of him, he is obviously an extremely good teacher!

But he quickly thought of something, and his face was regretful.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your attention...... I'm really eager to learn to draw with you, but I'm a subordinate of Mr. Jack after all, and I can't stay here for long. ”

Noah took a deep breath and chose to decline.

Everyone present was quite surprised, but they didn't expect this young man to give up such an opportunity.

You must know that the Holy Maiden is a [Sequence 3]!

Becoming a student of Him is not as simple as learning to draw......

It's still a close relationship!

Chen Lun was surprised by Noah's choice, and couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart. But he didn't want Noah to give up such an opportunity because of himself.

Just as he was about to persuade Noah to study here for a while and return to the royal city to join the team in the future, Lutina chuckled and said:

"You don't have to stay here all the time...... I'll be on my way to the Intracity in a few days, and you can come with me on a tour. Actually, although I am a saint, I don't actually spend every day in the Great Coleridge Forest, and Tourmaline Klouster is my main area of activity. ”

"That's ...... so"

Noah's eyes lit up.

He immediately looked at Chen Lun, his eyes full of anticipation.

Seeing this, Chen Lun couldn't help but chuckle and explained to Lutina:

"Your Majesty, it just so happens that we will go to the royal city after we finish delivering the letter."

He then nodded to Noah again.

"Noah, don't refuse the kindness of Lutina, you can take this opportunity to learn from Him."

"Yes, Mr. Jack."

Noah smiled and bowed respectfully to Lutina.

"Teacher Lutina, I am honored to be your painting student!"

*

The crowd chatted for a moment.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Lutina spoke to Captain Glorian:

"I've been delaying Lady Elk for a long time, so please take Mr. Jack to the Heart of the Sacred Tree."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The white-haired woman got up from her chair and saluted.

She then looked at Chen Lun and made a gesture of please.

"Please follow me, Mr. Jack."

"Thank you, Captain Golyan."

Seeing this, Chen Lun also got up to say goodbye.

He left Noah and Anton in the Templar while he left with Golion.

Golian only led a team of sacred tree guards, and led Chen Lun to hover up from the base of the huge sacred tree, and climbed the main body of the sacred tree along the naturally formed steps.

The sacred tree, which looked quite majestic from a distance, was not until he climbed it himself, and Chen Lun realized that he still underestimated its scale...... Walking on it is no less than walking on a spacious city square, and every step you step on is on top of the thick trees, which is very special to the touch.

After climbing on the sacred tree for nearly twenty minutes, Chen Lun followed Golian to a huge stone and wood hall...... Standing on the edge of a huge tree branch, you can even see thin clouds floating in the air.

Looking down below, countless dense mushroom houses and tree houses were like sesame seeds, and even the sanctuary had become extremely small...... This is already the middle part of the sacred tree, thousands of meters above the ground.

"Lady Elk is inside."

Golion stopped in front of the main hall and turned to Chen Lun and said.

"We can't enter at will, so you'll have to go in yourself."

"Okay, good work."

Chen Lun nodded and thanked him.

Golion bowed slightly, and commanded the guards of the sacred tree to stand on the edge of the main hall and wait.

Chen Lun glanced at them, and immediately strode forward, his hand just raised, ready to knock on the wooden door...... Unexpectedly, the ten-meter-high door in front of him was like a living thing, turning into countless tendrils on its own, wriggling and opening.

He knew in his heart that Lady Elk must have known about his arrival.

Chen Lun took a deep breath, pulled the brim of his hat, and walked in.

The main hall of the natural sect called "Heart of the Sacred Tree" is not dim inside, and the dome is covered with golden spherical mushrooms, emitting a bright light.

In the depths of the empty hall is a throne woven with turquoise vines.

On the throne lay a woman whose face could not be seen, and beneath the throne was a huge elk...... Compared to the mount of the Olga priest, this elk is several times larger and has a stronger aura.

Chen Lun could sense a strong threat just from its aura, it was obviously a mythical creature-level existence!

The elk lay on the ground and squinted to sleep, while the woman on the throne lazily turned to the side, looking at Chen Lun with her cheeks propped up.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Favored by the Cat God, Jakespet."

Chen Lun didn't dare to raise his head to look at the other party, just buried his head and replied respectfully:

"I've seen Lady Elk."

"Hmm."

Lady Elk replied faintly.

His gaze roamed back and forth over Chen Lun, and after a while, he continued:

"Looks like Maggie thinks a lot of attention to you...... In that case, I should also make a statement. ”

I saw that Mrs. Elk's fingers were raised slightly, and countless roots grew on the ground in front of Chen Lun, forming a simple table.

There are three things on it.

A dry seed, a square gravel, and a letter.

"Seeds and stones are gifts for you, and letters need you to help me deliver to the Meteor Tower, to Fredcui."

Mrs. Elk was succinct.

Chen Lun suddenly realized.

The other party asked him to deliver the letter, but in fact he was helping him...... Because this can be regarded as an indirect increase in his "importance", after arriving at the Meteor Tower, the probability of seeing him will be even greater.

Chen Lun secretly speculated about Mrs. Elk's intentions, and at the same time silently accepted this kindness.

"Thank you for the gift, I'll send the letter to the Meteor Tower as soon as possible."

He bowed respectfully to the women on the throne.

Immediately, Chen Lun put away the letters on the table first, and then picked up the seeds and gravel. A pop-up pop pops up on the panel, the former being a high-level token of the Nature Sect, and the latter being one of the main parts of the "Monument of Destiny"!

'Previously in Peacock City, I obtained several fragments of the Monument of Destiny from the Museum of the Simon Family, and my gut told me that it was important, but it was very difficult to collect the complete Monument...... I didn't expect to get such a big piece here. ’

The fragment of the stone tablet in Chen Lun's hand was the size of two people's heads, and there were many words recorded on it, which made him very happy.

He estimated a little in his heart, and the fragments of the Destiny Monument in his hand should be close to half the size of the original appearance...... It shouldn't be far from the whole monument.

But he had no way of knowing where the remaining fragments were, and even divination had little effect...... It seems that the monument itself has a powerful mystical resistance, which is able to shield divination induction.

Chen Lun planned to wait until he was promoted to a high position, and then try to use divination to find out.

When he placed the seed in his palm and examined it, an accident happened.

I saw that the dry seed suddenly rejuvenated and slammed into his palm.

Chen Lun only felt a slight tingling in his palm, and then a young bud grew out of his palm.

"Don't worry, it won't hurt you...... This is the highest level token of the Nature Sect, and it is rare in number, because it was born on the sacred tree and was able to establish a mysterious connection with the sacred tree. ”

Seeing Chen Lun's frowning slightly, Mrs. Elk explained calmly.

Chen Lun glanced up at Mrs. Elk in surprise, and immediately calmed down to feel the message transmitted by the buds in his palm.

[You have established a bond with the "Sacred Tree", and Lady Elk's affection for you has increased!] Currently friendly! 】

[Mother Mother Mia Mavis pays attention to you, and his favorability towards you has increased!] Currently friendly! 】

[You have received the honorific name of Mother Mother Nature Mia Mevis!] 】

'You are the mother of all living beings, giving birth to countless sacred trees.

You are the essence of life, the starting point of all living beings.

You are the pillar of the world, the great tree god Mia Mavis......
