Chapter 408： saint

It was dawn, and Chen Lun had taken Noah and Anton away for a long time.

Last night, when the Tamara Ratman attacked, he actually didn't take action himself, because killing this kind of Ratman has no gain, so it's better to let Noah and Anton add a little more mysterious accumulation.

There are a large number of rats, but the strength of each individual is at best at the level of a human teenager. Even if they have sharp claws and fangs, or even hold weapons, they are not enough to look at in front of a man and a cow.

The battle lasted only tens of minutes, and those crazy rat people were slaughtered by Noah and Anton.

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

This can't help but make him feel that the Great Coleridge Forest, like the Natural Forest in Wonderland, always gives him a weird feeling. As for the man captured by the three gangsters, he had already been overwhelmed by the rats, gnawed to the bone.

Chen Lun didn't care about it.

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

Noah took advantage of the rest time, stood aside and looked around, and said.

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

He heard Noah's words, chuckled and nodded.

"It's huge. The area of ​​the Great Coleridge Forest is equivalent to the area of ​​a state city. If you don't consider the hidden dangers in it, it will take at least a few months for ordinary people to go around in it."

Chen Lun turned to look at Antonio again.

Cows are circling around a big tree, humming songs.

「Anton, what do you think of the environment in this forest?」

"do not like…"

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

"Too many trees, and the grass here tastes weird... I still prefer the prairie, the endless grassland."

Chen Lun shook his head with a smile.

He then turned his gaze to a deep depression on the left hand side. There are muddy swamps all over it, and there are many dead wooden piles standing upright... According to Lutina's message, after passing through this swamp, it is necessary to change direction, from the original Northwest to northeast.

The specific principles are not clear, these are the experiences summed up by the locals.

Only in this way can we finally reach the Augusta Mountains, otherwise we will get lost in the forest and keep spinning.

Chen Lun took out another delicate compass, and confirmed the northeast according to the direction it pointed.

Actually, the compass is not easy to use in Coleridge Forest, because it often fails, and the pointer keeps jumping, and it is unclear what is interfering with it.

But Chen Lun did not put all his hopes on the compass. He performed divination twice later, 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 him is very good. Noah is a Sequence Six of the flesh and blood faction, and he is good at physicality, while Anton has the extraordinary biological characteristics of "indefatigable". Therefore, Chen Lun is not worried that they will be tired because of the rush. .

「We're going to hurry up...」

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

"Well, good Mr. Jack!"

Noah and Anton nodded in response.

Chen Lun chuckled, stepped on his feet, and shot out like an arrow, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Noah and Antonio were taken aback for a moment, and then buried themselves in chasing after them.

In the lush dense forest, two people and one cow flashed like strange black shadows.

After walking like this for a whole morning.

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

"What's the matter, Mr. Jack?"

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

"Someone is coming towards us."

Chen Lun looked forward and said calmly.

Noah frowned slightly.

Anyone?

The forest area is so vast, how can someone bump into it by chance when it reaches 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.

rustle...

The fallen leaves were trampled on, making a slight sound.

The breeze blows and the trees 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 pair of huge antlers of the elk are like two mini towering trees with countless branches... There are also some small wood carvings and handicrafts of colored stones hanging on them.

'This is an extraordinary creature...,

Chen Lun thought to himself.

The men and women in the team are all low-sequence Transcendents. They are dressed in green robes, hoods and grass rings, holding short bows and spears, carrying quiver, and looking curiously at Chen Lun and Noah Anton behind him.

On the back of the elk, there is also an elderly female, wearing a cloak with a brown background and patterns drawn with white paint.

Chen Lun sensed an extraordinary power from the opponent. After checking the old man's panel by using life-peeping calmly, he learned that she is a [Natural Faction Sequence Five-Perfumer].

「Hello, guest from afar.」

The old female spoke slowly.

Her eyes flicked over Noah and Anton, and finally settled on Chen Lun, showing a faint smile.

"I am the priest of the natural sect, Olga, of course, you can also call me 'Julius', in nature, it means 'mediator,'."

"Hello, Priest Olga."

Chen Lun politely supported the black hat and said hello to him.

He didn't want to conflict with the natural sect, so he said:

"We are just passing through the Great Forest of Coleridge, and we didn't intend to break into the territory of the natural sect... If there is any offense, please forgive me."

"No offense...We have never classified the Coleridge Forest as a religious territory. Naturally, everything can thrive here, not to mention I know you have no malicious intentions."

Olga said.

She stroked the elk's forehead.

"I came here on this trip because 'Mrs. Moose, he wants to see you, Mr. Jack."

"Mrs. Elk..."

Chen Lun was slightly taken aback.

Of course he knows who Mrs. Elk is talking about... That is the Pope of the Natural Sect. He has ruled the Natural Sect for thousands of years. He is an extremely powerful and old-fashioned figure!

「You know me?」

he said in surprise.

"certainly."

Olga nodded.

"Although the Natural Sect lives in seclusion in the depths of the forest, it is not ignorant of the outside world...Recently, the empire has been turbulent. We also tried to win the seat of the Orthodox Church, but failed. In the end, the Generous Council won the throne...Mr. Jack One of the ten consuls of the Senate, we have heard about it for a long time."

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

"So that's how it is... I don't know why Mrs. Elk wants to see me? I seem to have never had contact with your sect before."

Olga took a deep look at Chen Lun, and said slowly:

"Her Majesty the Holy Maiden told Mrs. Elk the news of your coming to the forest, which aroused his interest... Don't worry, Mr. Jack, we are a kind invitation, you can take this as a visit, come to We respect your wishes if you don’t come.”

‘Saint? Who is this...,

Chen Lun frowned slightly.

He pondered for a while.

I have no enmity with the Natural Sect. If the other party wants to be unfavorable to me, they can directly send people to surround them. After all, this is their territory... Let Olga's team come to contact me, and you can see that the other party is indeed sincere of.

So he nodded and said:

「In that case, then

Please lead the way, Priest Olga. "

"You're welcome, you should."

Olga smiled slightly.

She whispered something to the elk again, and the tall elk slowly turned around and took the lead towards the woods.

Chen Lun greeted Noah and Anton, followed closely behind.

The men and women of the natural sect in the team did not communicate aloud. Although they seemed curious about themselves, the whole atmosphere was very quiet, and it could be seen that their discipline was quite good.

After walking like this for about 20 minutes, everyone passed through the woods and came to a lake.

There are many wood and stone houses built on the wide open space, as well as many watchtowers and fences, which seem to be to guard against dangerous creatures in the forest. Many plainly dressed residents shuttled through the settlement. When they saw the return of the Olga team, they stopped and saluted them.

It seems that Olga has a high status here.

"This is a human settlement blessed by the natural sect. Their ancestors were the former owners of this land... After the Cuisul Empire unified the mainland, many subjugated people fled here. After thousands of years, there have been many Few offspring thrive here."

She turned around and explained to Chen Lun.

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

Chen Lun nodded and sighed with emotion.

"this way please."

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

Until everyone came to a towering tree.

Under the tree, there is a huge tree hole, like a gate.

「This hole is connected to the root of the ‘sacred tree’ underground, which can lead to the natural sect’s residence…”

Olga led the team into the tree hole and made a sound slowly.

Chen Lun knew the holy tree she was talking about. He heard that it was the incarnation of the mother **** of nature, "Ms. Holy Tree".

After entering the tree hole, Chen Lun found that the inside was not as dark as imagined, but transparent and bright... because on the inner wall of the thick tree roots, there are countless radiant mushrooms, which play the role of lighting.

Countless roots are entrenched here, forming a passage.

After a while.

Chen Lun reckoned that he had followed Olga and the others down to a depth of tens of meters underground, and was heading towards the unknown area along the winding tree root passage.

Dozens of minutes passed like this, the channel gradually went up, and then returned to the ground.

Wow!

A dazzling white light suddenly appeared.

The crisp bird chirping came from my ears.

Chen Lun used the "five senses" to avoid the uncomfortable sight, and saw a scene like a fairyland on earth... The place is extremely spacious, and as far as the eye can see, there are countless houses made of giant mushrooms and tree stumps, row upon row.

Flowers, butterflies and many plants that have never been seen are everywhere, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

When Chen Lun saw such a beautiful scenery, he felt cheerful.

At the end surrounded by many houses, there is an extremely tall giant tree, soaring to the sky, and the highest point is even covered by clouds... It exudes a faint golden light, which is somewhat illusory. On the thick branches like a city street On the road, you can even see many wooden houses and pedestrians.

He knew that it was the "holy tree" served by the natural sect!

On the road ahead, several groups of people have been waiting for a long time.

They are all women, with beautiful looks and slender figures, wearing blue and white slender robes and carrying exquisite spears. On the helmets of these natural sect guards, you can still see the tree root pattern, and there is a long blue tassel on the top of the head.

Chen Lun narrowed his eyes slightly. This group of female guards are all mid-sequence Transcendents. According to this specification, compared to other Orthodox churches, they are equivalent to elite teams of Transcendents like "Lampkeepers" and "Executioners".

「The Sacred Tree Guards met Priest Olga.」

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

for

The captain at the head is extremely hot. She strode forward, took off her helmet, and revealed a delicate face. His white hair particularly attracted Chen Lun's attention, and it fell naturally.

"This is the captain of the Holy Tree Guard, Goliath."

Olga introduced to Chen Lun.

This is another [Natural Faction Sequence Five-Perfumer], but it seems to be more inclined to close combat.

"Gorianne has met Mr. Jack, and the Natural Sect welcomes you."

The white-haired captain smiled and nodded.

She turned slightly sideways, and her hands moved in a certain direction behind her.

"Before meeting Mrs. Elk, please go to the church and sit down. Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time."

「Which is your saintess?」

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

「You should have met me before.」

At this time, a familiar female voice came.

Chen Lun looked up and saw a mature and tall young woman walking slowly, and the group of holy tree guards backed away one after another to make way.

This woman is dressed in a white hollowed-out gown, like a backless evening dress. Her long golden hair is naturally scattered, and an emerald green pendant hangs on her left ear.

"Hello, Jack."

The beautiful woman smiled and her voice was extremely pleasant.

Chen Lun vaguely saw the familiar facial features from the opponent's face, and couldn't help raising 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 mature.

「Lutina is a life I created a long time ago...」

The other party thought for a while and said.

「But you can call me that, after all, I like this name very much.」

'Create life...,

Chen Lun was secretly surprised.

This is definitely not something that ordinary high-ranking people can do...

The saint "Lutina" in front of her eyes is likely to surpass [Sequence Four]!

"I saw you in her eyes. Sorry, I told Mrs. Elk about this without your consent... After all, I am a young man who is valued by Sister Maggie. I think you must have Unusual place."

Lutina said softly.

The "she" in his mouth obviously refers to the owner and guide of the White Gull Travel Agency, a girl with golden twin tails.

Chen Lun was very surprised by Lutina's words.

The other party calls Maggie, the cat god, her sister...

Could it be that?

Lutina ignored the surprised gazes of everyone present, walked up to Chen Lun, leaned her head over and sniffed at his chest.

"Hmm... Sister Maggie has a very strong smell, and she is indeed His beloved one. Mrs. Elk will definitely like you very much, Jack."

His eyes turned into crescent moons, and said softly.

The distance between the two sides is very close, and Chen Lun can even smell the strong fragrance of flowers on Lutina's body.
