Soon, two female guards took Chen Lun out.

He was to take a bath before he was arranged to Lady Oriana's quarters, where he awaited her tasting.

Chen Lun did not resist, he "obediently" accepted such an arrangement.

A moment later.

"Go in, you can rest in it first, but you can't come out at will, you can call us if you need anything."

The female guard stood in front of a relatively clean and tidy-looking house, turned to Chen Lun and said.

Chen Lun has now changed his outfit, the original black hat and black clothes have been replaced by a rough linen robe, and the slightly long slightly curly black hair falls at will, with that perfect face and figure, he has instantly changed from a gentleman in the civilized world to an "angel" who has fallen into the mortal world.

He just nodded, and even pushed the door in.

The two female guards reluctantly looked away from his back, and stood restlessly in the doorway. They looked at each other, and they both saw a look of longing but timidity on each other's faces.

It's the first time they've seen such a superb man.

But they are very self-aware, and with their lowly status, it is impossible to enjoy him...... That's the man that the Grand Lord Lady Oriana deserves.

Chen Lun walked into the house, looked at the simple furnishings around him, and remained silent. There is only a bed, a table and two chairs, without excessive decorations. Even the quilt on the bed is just the fur of an unknown animal.

But he lay down without disgust and began to meditate.

After entering the realm of Matthew, along the way, he discovered a very strange phenomenon, that is, the timekeeping here is the opposite of the surface.

I obviously entered the underground in the middle of the night on the surface, but here it is daytime.

Perhaps it had something to do with the dark red ball of light in the dome, which dimmed over time, then brightened again, and so on...... Red Mother? So what is it exactly? Could it be a miracle or a spectacle? ’

Chen Lun thought to himself.

He shook his head, recalling the meeting he had with the two ladies he had just met.

At that time, through voyeurism, he learned that the lord of this settlement, Lady Cremo, was a mid-sequence transcendent [Moon Faction Sequence VI - Night Watchman]. And the lord Lady Orianna from the large settlement "Thorn Rose" is a [Moon Faction Sequence 5 - Black Knight].

'With the power of [Siren Song], I'm afraid it won't be enough to hypnotize a Sequence Five transcendent, but with my own strength, even if I can't do anything, I can calmly get out of being besieged by this settlement......

Chen Lun prepared for the worst, that is, to capture Lady Oriana, force her to ask for the information he wanted, and finally escape from here.

He lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and used the [Fredcui Meditation Method] to empty himself and take a short rest.

Two hours and eighteen minutes later.

Chen Lun noticed a slight footstep approaching the door.

"Alright, you all go back and rest, there is no need to guard here."

Lady Oriana's voice faintly came from outside the door.

"Yes, Lady Oriana, I wish you a wonderful evening."

The female guard's respectful voice rang out, and she left with the sound of footsteps.

Creak.

The rudimentary wooden door was pushed open from the outside, and the next second it slowly closed.

Chen Lun opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.

He saw that Lady Oriana was standing at the table, with her back to him, and slowly took off her outer clothes, revealing her smooth and fair shoulders and back, and her curvaceous figure was in full view.

Chen Lun's face was expressionless, and he was about to use [Thought Stealing] on him, but Orianna suddenly spoke without looking back:

"Do you know a man named Byers Wolfe?"

Chen Lun was stunned at first, then frowned slightly, and doubts flashed in his eyes.

'How could this Great Lord of the Matthew Realm know about Mr. Byers...... Well? Could it be that Mr. Biles came here and had some contact with this woman? ’

He made the most probable speculation in his mind.

Ariana changed into a lighter and more comfortable cotton and linen robe as if no one was around, turned around, and looked at Chen Lun with a smile that seemed to be not a smile, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly:

"Your name is Jack, right? I actually knew from the first time I saw you from the surface...... After all, only women in the land of Matthew will be polluted and have extraordinary powers, and men are just ordinary people, but you are different, I can feel the mysterious aura of your body, and the sequence is not low. ”

She sat down on her chair, supported her chin with her palms, and said with her eyes foggy:

"And most importantly, your temperament is very similar to that of a man I have ever seen, which is the calmness and confidence that only a man on the surface can have."

Chen Lun was a little surprised by this, but he was not panicked.

He glanced at her silently, thought for a moment, and then said softly:

"Yes, I know Mr. Biles, he is my mentor and half of my family."

Oriana's eyes lit up.

She didn't expect that her tentative inquiry would really be rewarding.

"Where is he?"

Orianna looked eager.

Chen Lun saw the true meaning contained in her casual reaction, which was a kind of expectation and concern, as well as a trace of admiration.

He couldn't help but make up a scene of unrequited love in his heart.

"This great lord must not fall in love with Mr. Biles......

Chen Lun thought about it and decided to try to adopt peaceful means first.

"Mr. Biles...... Not long ago, he died in an accident. ”

He said in a deep voice.

Oriana's expression froze, and then it froze.

"Looks like you don't know him, you're just cheating on me...... That's right, even if it's also from the surface, where is there such a coincidence. ”

"I didn't lie to you."

Chen Lun said calmly.

"Biles's strength is at the same level as the queen, how could he die easily......"

Oriana said coldly.

"It's a bit complicated to say, but Mr. Biles has really fallen...... He was mortally wounded in a fight with his old enemy, and then ambushed by another enemy of the same rank, which eventually led to a loss of control. ”

Chen Lun sighed.

Immediately afterwards, he took out the codex of what Mr. Biles had left behind and handed it over.

Orianna took it in disbelief, eagerly flipped through it, and the more she looked, the paler her face became, and at last she was stunned.

Half a day.

With a lonely expression, she returned the codex to Chen Lun.

"I believe what you say......"

After a few seconds of silence, Orianna began to tell him about the events of the previous months.

It turned out that when Mr. Byers first came to the land of Matthew, he happened to meet Orianna, and the high lord fell in love with him at first sight...... Not only because of Mr. Biles's noble and unique temperament, but also because of his great strength.

This is a man Orianna has never met.

But then Biles said goodbye, which made her miss every day and night, fantasizing that Biles would come back one day...... Or, one day Matthew could return to the surface so that she could go to him.

Unfortunately, that day will not come.

"Do you know why the Matthews couldn't get out of here and go back to the surface?"

Oriona's low voice suddenly asked.

Without waiting for Chen Lun to answer, she then spoke:

"It's punishment, the punishment of the sun god for us sinners...... Thousands of years ago, the continent collapsed and a new continent was built over our heads, bathed in the gentle sunshine, leaving us with only infinite darkness. ”

Oriana's eyes were distracted, as if she was explaining to Chen Lun, and as if she was talking to herself.

"We are wretched creatures abandoned by the sun god, left to fend for ourselves underground...... Even reproduction can only rely on the 'dark river', but the offspring born from the 'dark river' are all women without exception, and they are born with pollution and have a short life...... Most of my life I have no hope of being promoted to a high position, and the distance is almost over, but it is a pity that I will not be able to see Biles again. ”

Chen Lun listened silently and didn't say a word.

Oriana looked up.

"It shouldn't be an accident that you came here...... For Biles' sake, if you need anything, I can help you. ”

"Thank you."

Chen Lun said.

"I want to know something."

"What's the matter?"

Oriana asked.

"Everything about the land of Matthew."

Chen Lun looked at her and said.

Orianna didn't seem surprised by this, she just nodded.

"Byers was just as curious about this place as you are...... And why shouldn't we be curious about the earth's surface? ”

She smiled self-deprecatingly, and then told Chen Lun about some things about the land of Matthew.

Oriana first introduced the four queens.

They were all high-ranking sages of Sequence Four, but they were different from the [Moon Sequence Four-Ferryman] in Chen Lun's cognition.

The queens' sequence is [Undead]!

Is it a branch of the Moon's pathway? ’

Chen Lun thought in surprise.

"The land of Matthew has been abandoned by the sun god, and at the same time, there is a 'gatekeeper' who guards the only way to the surface, blocking us...... Four queens teamed up to challenge the Gatekeeper in an attempt to lead us back to the surface, only to be defeated. ”

Oriana shook her head.

"You can't get out of here?"

Chen Lun remembered how he came here, so he asked out loud.

"Yes...... there is a curse hidden in the bloodline where the 'Dark River' was born, preventing us 'Dark Spawns' from entering the spirit realm."

Orianna smiled wryly.

She raised her gaze again and looked at Chen Lun's handsome face.

"But the 'Light Descendants' born of normal intercourse between men and women are not restricted, so they are the hope of the land of Matthew, and the four queens have made a pact to raise a very small number of 'Light Descendants' to adulthood, so that they can return to the surface from the spirit world to find a way to save this land...... This is one of the things we are doing and continue to do, because it is the only light we can see."

"No wonder men are so rare and precious in the land of Matthew."

Chen Lun nodded knowingly.

At the same time, he thought in his mind:

According to Oriona, there should be some 'Light Descendants' from Matthew's lands on the surface, but I've never heard of them before...... They should be good at hiding their identities and secretly looking for ways to save their hometown. ’

Chen Lun sighed quietly.

He then asked about the polluting creatures.

Oriana told him that the land of Matthew was harsh, lacking in material things, and was plagued by all kinds of polluted creatures, and the most troublesome of them were the Didaq Wormmen, who were so powerful that only the Great Lord could kill them.

This information made Chen Lun frown.

The Didaq Bugmen only exist in the dark world, and they have spread to the present world, wreaking havoc in the realm of Matthew......

Could there be any connection between that? ’

Chen Lun couldn't help but guess.

"Thank you very much for your answer, Ms. Oriana, and I have one last request."

"What's the matter? Go ahead. ”

Orianna smiled.

"I want to meet your queen."

Chen Lun said.

Orianna was a little surprised by this, she raised her eyebrows, thought for a moment and said:

"Well, the Queen cares about things on the surface, and he may be able to get the answers he wants from you...... I can help you with this, but it will take some time, after all, the queen is very busy on weekdays, and even I must report it in advance. ”

"Thank you very much."

Chen Lun nodded in acknowledgment.

After a few more small talks, Orianna got up and left.

"You can rest here tonight, and we'll see you tomorrow."

As the door closed, Chen Lun let out a sigh.

He was worried that Orionna would spend the night here, and if that was the case, he would have to ...... her Drove away.

'Who called me a good man with a bottom line and morality......

Chen Lun shook his head.

Following.

Early in the morning, two female guards came and knocked on the door.

"Lady Oriana is about to return to the 'Great Settlement of Thorns', you can wash up first, go to dinner with us, and then set off later."

Chen Lun nodded.

A moment later.

He cleaned up and followed them out of the house.

However, on the way, he noticed that the two female guards frequently turned their heads, looked at him with a surprised and curious gaze, and whispered something in their mouths.

Chen Lun used [Five Senses General Knowledge] to transform vision into hearing, and saw the content of their communication-

"Is this man really that good? I saw that Lady Orianna's face was not very good, and she was a little paler than ever......"

"I've noticed too, even Lady Oriana can't bear it, what do you think this man's body is made of?"

"Hey, do you want to try it?"

"Of course, don't you want to? But how could this be ......?"

As she spoke, the faces of the two female guards showed strong regret.

Chen Lun followed behind and shook his head secretly.

When he was in the big house where he had met the previous day, he saw Lady Oriana again, but Lady Kramer was not present.

Oriana sat in a chair, and behind her stood seven or eight heroic women, who were clearly not ordinary guards or attendants, judging by their dress and temperament.

"Good day, Jack."

Ms. Orianna raised her hand and asked Chen Lun to sit down and eat.

Chen Lun responded politely, and then sat down.

The food on the table was not sumptuous, just some mushroom soup and barbecue that had been simply cooked, but Chen Lun knew that this might already be a rather luxurious breakfast here.

"Lady Oriana, I may need to return today, so I am here to say goodbye to you."

Chen Lun took a sip of mushroom soup and felt that there was no salt taste.

He looked up at the other and said.

Oriana seemed a little surprised, but she didn't hold back, she knew Chen Lun's details, and naturally knew that there were some things that should not be asked.

"It's okay...... I'll do your job as soon as possible, but how can I contact you then? ”

Oriana said.

Chen Lun glanced at the several women behind the other party, and seeing what Oriana meant, it seemed that he didn't have to avoid these henchmen.

He directly raised his hand and flicked his fingers, and his index finger fell off and turned into a small white snake, which flew in front of Orianna.

"It can be used as a medium to communicate at any time."

Chen Lun explained.

Orianna was surprised, she held the little white snake in the palm of her hand, and then chuckled it into her full chest with a chuckle.

Chen Lun's hand holding the bowl couldn't help but tremble slightly.

The little white snake is a part of his body and can naturally share with its perception.

Warm and cozy.

But he soon realized something, and that feeling of comfort instantly changed to a creepy feeling like a fish crawling with feet all over his body.

He coughed twice and was about to speak.

Lady Orianna spoke first:

"Jack, do you want to think about these men of mine before you leave...... They are all excellent warriors and have learned a lot about reproduction, and perhaps your seed will give birth to a more talented 'Light Descendant'. ”

The seven or eight women behind her suddenly had their eyes lit up and stared directly at Chen Lun.

Chen Lun suddenly felt that the sense of déjà vu that there were fish crawling with feet all over his body was even stronger, and at this moment, even countless fish ran over him, making his hair stand on end.

"Thank you for your kindness, Oriana, but I don't think so......"

He tried to keep a smile on his face and said lightly.
