"Mr. Jack, this ......"

Carmen's old face suddenly crumpled, revealing a look of embarrassment.

"Don't get me wrong, Master Carmen, I'm just just on the throne, and I'm a little curious about the mythical creatures of the other high-ranking ones, and I don't mean to be offensive or inquisitive."

Chen Lun said with a smile.

"Alas...... I can see that you have no ill intentions, Jack, after all, you saved my life, but ......"

Carmen sighed and fell silent.

Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.

Secretly, this old guy is quite reserved.

"Master Carmen, you just ...... Mythical creatures that seem to have spied on the underneath? ”

He said intentionally or unconsciously.

Carmen's face changed slightly, and she hurriedly waved her hand to explain:

"There is absolutely no ......"

However, after the transformation of the perception below, it has been qualitatively enhanced...... There was obviously a line of sight sweeping just now, could it be an illusion? Or is there someone else in this mural world besides you and me? ”

Chen Lun rubbed his chin and said slowly.

Carmen coughed, embarrassed.

Although he subjectively didn't want to spy on this young man's extraordinary transformation process, he had no choice but to let the other party move too much just now, and he still inadvertently caught a glimpse of the pale shadow that flashed away.

In a sense, I am indeed at a loss.

"Na...... You don't want Ms. Fredgreen to know that her students are secretly snooping on other people's secrets, and then deny it, right? ”

Chen Lun chuckled and gave a heavy blow.

Carmen was stunned at first, and then her face turned dark.

He now understands that the young man in front of him is only polite on the surface, but dirty on the inside, and he will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals...... He even used this to threaten himself with an old man.

"Okay, okay......"

He sighed.

Immediately afterward, Carmen tossed her backpack and boxy hat aside.

His emaciated body suddenly began to deform, expanding to a height of eight or nine meters in the blink of an eye, and his normal skin turned into a gray-black stone surface, engraved with dense mystical patterns, flashing with a blue faint light.

A "giant statue" equivalent to a three-story building appeared in front of Chen Lun's eyes, but Chen Lun raised his head and his expression became particularly strange.

I saw that this statue had a delicate and mature face, but it was seven or eight points similar to that of Lady Fredtri, with closed eyes and a smile. It has four arms covered with dark green crystals, and together they hold a large "staff hammer".

However, this "staff hammer" is in the form of a human being, a young man who is naked, with his hands folded around his chest, and his face is similar to Carmen's, like when he was young.

No wonder the old fellow was reluctant...... It turns out that his mythical creature form is actually like this, and it would be embarrassing to let Lady Fredtri know about it......

Chen Lun thought to himself.

A strong aura of mythology spread from the statue, and the ground trembled around it...... If an ordinary person, or even a low-level transcendent stood here, even if he only glanced at it, he would probably be polluted on the spot and lose control!

That's the terrible thing about the true face of the high-ranking person.

However, Chen Lun is now also on the high position, and his mysterious resistance has been transformed, and the mythical aura of the other party is like a spring breeze, which has no effect on him.

'It's time to make a move......

Chen Lun said secretly.

Without any warning, he appeared next to the statue and quietly stretched out his fingers.

[You have performed the skill "Animal Imitation LVMAX+5"!] 】

[Mythical creature "Carmen" trait - "Skull of Enlightenment" detected!] 】

'Sure enough, we can imitate it again......

Chen Lun was happy.

When he first woke up from his metamorphosis, he briefly checked his condition and was pleasantly surprised to find that the contamination on his body that had been caused by Clarence had not only disappeared, but had also become a mythical creature trait that he had used for himself.

Not only that, but there is also a mythical creature trait called "Strings of Mourning". After looking through the panel records, he was shocked, it turned out to be a trait obtained from the old man Bankrotev......

After recalling and inferring, Chen Lun probably guessed that most of the tombstone in the hands of the yellow-robed clay man in the painting could borrow the power of his high position from the past historical line. Coincidentally, he replenished the strength of the painting, and although he rescued Carmen, he also brought her back to life and attacked himself.

If it weren't for the transformation of the promotion, maybe he would really be unable to escape death.

Because I was in a coma at the time, the panel was optimized to remove two transcendent biological traits for me...... 'Splitting Resurrection' and 'Decaying Blood' were gone, making room for 'Crystalline Cells' and 'Strings of Mourning'. ’

Chen Lun didn't feel sorry for this, because this was an angel and god-level mythical creature trait! Without a huge chance, it would be a fool's dream for him to get such a rare trait!

"Now that the panel's stats have reached a pretty terrifying level, and my mystical resistance has been transformed, the 'Cursed Skin' is of little use to me, so let's get rid of it." ’

Chen Lundang even eliminated this extraordinary biological trait and replaced it with the mythical creature trait on Carmen's body.

[You learned from the mythical creature "Carmen" and imitated its trait - "Skull of Enlightenment"!] 】

Chen Lun suppressed the joy in his heart and tried to perform [Animal Imitation] on the huge statue in front of him again.

[You have performed the skill "Animal Imitation LVMAX+5"!] 】

[Mythical creature "Carmen" trait - "Golem Life" has been detected!] 】

'And! ’

Surprise flashed in Chen Lun's eyes.

'What a treasure old man......

This time, he opted to remove the transcendent creature trait "Breath" and gave up the spot to the new mythical creature trait "Golem Life". Chen Lun didn't look at the description in detail, and after a general glance, he shot again, intending to continue to gather the old mage's wool.

This time, however, it failed.

Although Chen Lun was slightly disappointed, he was actually satisfied.

'Getting two perks from Carmen is enough...... I just don't know where my limits are now? Is it possible to replace all ten memory tiles with mythical creature traits......

He secretly speculated that he planned to try again when he had the opportunity to do so later.

At this point, he already has four mythical creature characteristics, although he has not been studied and developed in detail, but he knows very well that this is not the slightest bit of an improvement in his own strength.

As for his current strength, he has no bottom.

Bang......

With a dull loud noise, the statue began to shrink and revert back to the emaciated form of a white-haired old man.

"Jack, what did you just do?"

Carmen asked slowly, frowning.

Chen Lun knew that his actions could not be concealed from the other party, so he said frankly:

"Learn."

Carmen stared at him, waiting for an explanation.

"After being promoted, it was discovered that in fact, the mythical biological form of the high-ranking person was the embodiment of his great power...... Even if you just look at it up close, you can learn a lot of valuable things from it. ”

Chen Lun said seriously.

"Oh? So what did you learn from me? ”

Carmen feigned curiosity.

"Nothing was learned."

Chen Lun shrugged.

The white-haired old man's eyes twitched.

"It's too short a time to see anything...... If you don't show it again, maybe you can do more research and research, and you can get results. ”

Chen Lun suggested with a smile.

"Forget it."

Carmen shook her head and refused.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that most of the secrets that this kid in front of him was hiding, but he was not interested in exploring it himself...... The other party's small actions just now did not have any adverse effects on him, and he simply didn't bother to pay attention to it.

"Mr. Jack, please keep this matter a secret."

He said in a deep voice.

"Of course."

Chen Lun nodded.

"Although he has just ascended to the throne, he also knows that the mythical creature form is the deepest secret of the high-ranking person...... I promise not to inform third parties about this, well, especially Ms. Fredtri. ”

"You don't have to stress about it!"

Carmen said angrily.

The white beard on his face trembled, and after taking a few breaths, he turned and picked up the backpack and pointed hat on the floor, and said goodbye.

"Thank you again, Jack, but I've been stuck here for a long time...... I'd like to go back to the Meteor Tower and see you again when I have a chance. ”

With that, the old mage turned his head and left, his movements hurried, unwilling to stay for a moment.

"Eh, Master Carmen, please don't go yet."

Chen Lun hurriedly stopped the other party.

The old man looked helpless and looked back at him.

After all, he is his savior, and he can't treat him indifferently. Moreover, the other party has now been promoted to a high position, and he is a saint of the same level as himself, and Carmen does not want to make enemies with the other party.

"Please also leave a token for future contact...... When I have some free time, I'd like to ask you about magic. ”

Chen Lun said with a chuckle.

This is a magic sage, and after rescuing the other party, his friendship has increased a lot, and there will be a wave of friendship increase when the task is settled...... With the help of such good connections, how could he let it go so easily.

The old man sighed, rummaged through his backpack, pulled out a finger-sized ball of emerald glass, and handed it over.

"My messenger is a bit picky, it's best to give energy crystals as a reward when sending a message......

After speaking, he no longer waited for Chen Lun's response, and turned into a translucent spirit as if fleeing, and disappeared in place.

Chen Lun played with the glass ball in his hand and raised his eyebrows.

'I'm not a devil, why is this old guy running so fast......

He shook his head and put away the token.

He turned around and took one last look at the collapsed ruins, followed in Carmen's footsteps, and left the mural world.

Just returned to the world of darkness.

Chen Lun received a pop-up prompt from the panel-

[Completed A-Rank Mission: Gatekeeper's Worries!] 】

[Get mission rewards: 50W experience points, 20 attribute points, 10 special attribute points, and the friendship of Fredeme and Carmen!] 】
