I've Become the King of Villains in the Game

Players from all over the Empire knew that a fierce battle had taken place in Snow Crystal City.

The once-quiet Circus had once again sparked heated discussions.

Especially Mr. Jack, the leader of that force.

Because this NPC was one of the protagonists on the battlefield of Snow Crystal City.

That terrifying swordplay continuously slashed the flesh tentacles, splashing blood everywhere, filled with a violent aesthetic.

Those orangish Supernatural Flames burned countless Fallen Believers, leaving behind a sky full of dust.

Also, the grotesque and enormous shadow of a Ghoul finally fell under the purplish-red sword light, dying in front of the pale Jack.

All these scenes deeply shocked the players watching the video.

At this moment, Chen Lun was unaware of everything on the gaming forums.

The group that had finished the battle was returning to the division of the Silver Dragon Trade Association.

The garden square had already become a ruin.

Leaving behind countless dismembered limbs and a thick layer of bone ash.

In Chen Lun's hand, he held a crystal cup, the very one from Bishop Bruno.

It was his only spoil of war.

After all the enemies on the field died, they left behind neither Mysterious Objects nor Mysterious Substances, not even the five drops of "Sin Blood" in the cup, which had mostly disappeared, leaving only the cup itself.

And the single remaining drop of Sin Blood inside it.

[Transcendent Item - Cup of Wickedness]

Item description: A container created by the Red Apple Church based on the power of the [Super A-Level Mysterious Object - Desecrated Holy Sword] through a complex and bloody ritual.

It can absorb blood qi and condense it into Sin Blood.

[Transcendent Item - Sin Blood]

Item description: An end product of highly concentrated spirit and blood containing powerful mystic powers, it is essential for the advancement of Transcendents on the Flesh Pathway and a rare material for rituals.

It is said that Sin Blood was originally a mystic crystallization researched by "Desecrated Duke" Ragnar, the leader of the Ten Cores of Red Apple Church's "Blood Abbey", but later generations could not replicate it.

'I had only heard of this thing in my previous life, but I never expected it to hide so many secrets…'

Chen Lun stored the crystal cup and that drop of Sin Blood in the Blood Poem Ring.

'Though I didn't get any Mysterious Objects or Mysterious Substances, at least there are Experience Points as a reward.'

The number of enemies killed this time was numerous, and though each Fallen Believer provided little in terms of Experience Points, the total was still considerable.

From Bishop Bruno alone, he received forty thousand Experience Points, with others adding up to a total of one hundred ten thousand Experience Points.

The accumulated total on his panel had now reached an astonishing two hundred sixty thousand.

It was truly refreshing.

Chen Lun set aside his thoughts and turned to look at the people beside him.

The group was retracing their path at that moment, moving along the block towards the direction of the Upper City District.

The Fallen Believers they encountered on the road were not as numerous as before.

"Mr. Jack,"

Seeing Chen Lun turning his gaze towards them, Stan, Nalan, and Cixi, among others, displayed expressions of respect.

The Mystic Realm, by nature, also could not escape the principle of the strong prevailing over the weak.

Having witnessed the series of events that had just occurred, they all recognized that the gentleman in the black hat beside them possessed the strength to easily crush them, which naturally induced a sense of awe.

"Noah, I haven't had the chance to congratulate you, you successfully advanced to Mid Sequence,"

Chen Lun nodded at everyone, then looked at the short youth beside him, revealing a smile.

"And... congratulations on getting your body back."

"Thank you,"

Noah responded with a shy yet adorable smile.

The next second, his head was casually ruffled by Chen Lun's large hand.

"I must say, you've become much handsomer now... I believe more people will like you."

Chen Lun said.

Noah bashfully lowered his head.

Meanwhile, Cixi was personally escorting Cumberland, holding one end of the iron chain that bound him.

The other Transcendents from the Ice Horn Society had been slain by Mr. Jack with a single sword, leaving only this fellow.

He witnessed the moment of closeness between Jack and Noah, feeling a mixture of inexplicable emotions.

"It seems, Young Master Noah is having a good time in this Circus organization,"

Cixi thought to himself.

They, the Silver Dragon Guard, were mostly Transcendents cultivated by the Silver Dragon Family, and although they were directly responsible to the Trade Association, they were in fact closer to the family members.

Especially to the direct descendants of the Silver Dragon Witch, Her Majesty Blaze.

Their loyalty even surpassed that of Kaibak.

The group returned to the entrance of the Upper City District, which was barricaded with temporary iron fences and various obstacles, guarded by numerous soldiers and monks from the Constellation Sect.

"Stars shine brightly, we are grateful for your safe return."

The head silver-robed female monk smiled.

The group entered through the narrow entrance, and another person in charge of the Shelter spoke up:

"Excuse me for taking a moment of your time, but could you tell me what happened with the loud bang in the lower area and the big fire in the central square area?"

The one making the inquiry was a middle-aged man, who wore only a vest, his arms bare, and still holding a flintlock gun in his hand.

Everyone stopped walking and instinctively turned their gaze towards the black-hatted gentleman at the front.

The official defense personnel also followed their gaze and noticed Jack.

This young man, dressed in black and holding a silver staff, radiated a barely perceptible mysterious aura.

Even the few Transcendents among the officials could not see through him.

"That was the aftermath of Mr. Jack clashing with the bishop of the Red Apple Church, at that time there were many Transcendent monks and Fallen Believers attacking..."

Cixi took a deep breath and explained solemnly.

The faces of the monks from the Constellation Sect and the person in charge of the Shelter changed immediately.

"This...?!"

People looked at each other in bewilderment.

Chen Lun simply smiled faintly, took off his hat, and bowed to them.

He whispered:

"The source of the disturbance in Snow Crystal City has been eliminated, I hope you can restore the city to its former tranquility as soon as possible."

Having said this,

he twirled his silver staff, hung it on his arm, and walked away directly.

Noah, Cixi, and the others followed close behind, gradually moving away from the entrance.

The official defense personnel were left behind, their faces in shock.

Soon after, a lively discussion began among them, speculating about the identity of the black-hatted young man named Jack.

The leading female monk of the Constellation Sect stood still, watching Chen Lun and his group depart until the head of the Shelter came up beside her and asked:

"Do you think what they said is credible? Did that young man named Jack really kill Bruno?"

"We only need to send someone to scout it out to know the result... And I don't think they have any reason to lie about such a matter,"

the silver-robed female monk said with a smile.

"If it is as they say, then Mr. Jack has indeed made a significant contribution to Snow Crystal City...

Bruno and the priests of the Red Apple Church hiding in the city, always hunting the Transcendents who enter, have left us constantly passive and helpless."

She touched her fingertips to her brow, then stretched her hand towards the sky, clenched her fist in a salute of the Constellation Sect.

Finally, she bowed gently towards Chen Lun's retreating figure.
