Chapter 787 Why doesn’t it dare to look at me?

Chapter 787 Why doesn’t it dare to look at me?

With a sound like a water ball exploding, red and white things splashed all over the floor in the showroom. Lu Chen ducked sideways to avoid being splashed with anything dirty.

He was a little embarrassed. He shook off the remaining liquid on his hand and looked at Archbishop Guerra, "It...it doesn't scream pain."

Archbishop Guerra was a little stunned. A few drops of red and white liquid were particularly conspicuous on its gray robe, and he was speechless for a moment.

Even Father Anderson, who had always looked like a statue, looked slightly sideways at this time, looking at Lu Chen with a little more curiosity.

He can also do things like crushing and killing dolls, but he is already a top high-risk night watchman, and the priest's clothing is just his personal religious hobby.

Even if Lu Chen was a Transcendent, how could he easily crush the cursed doll?

That requires at least a high-risk level of strength, and he saw that Lu Chen didn't seem to use much force just now. His arm muscles basically had no fluctuations, which meant that he didn't try his best.

This means that at least in the field of strength, Lu Chen has definitely reached the high-risk level.

"No, it's okay. It may have just shouted tired."

Archbishop Guerra tried to smooth things over, wanting to ease the embarrassment, and shouted outside, "Ayue, come and clean up."

Leng Yue entered the room and glanced at the pool of flesh and blood on the ground, roughly knowing what had happened.

I thought you were playing with fire by testing this boss.

But she was also confused. Even she had chosen a good starting position and directly became the night watchman of the provincial parish. Why did the boss just start taking up the post?

"Do you need to test anything else?"

Lu Chen asked. He just wanted to get a high-risk salary for whoring first, and after he found out the secrets of the church, he would get a special status for fun.

Archbishop Guerra originally wanted to say that your brute strength, coupled with your status as a Transcendent, and your high resistance to Ancient God pollution were enough to be rated as a high-risk Night Watchman, but he also had a rare curiosity. Want to test more.

"Anderson, go to the second room and take out that thing."

Archbishop Guerra handed Anderson a bronze medal. Anderson didn't say anything. After taking it, he walked towards the door inside the showroom.

When the second door opened, the ominous atmosphere became even stronger. Anderson quickly returned after entering and carefully closed the door.

What he held in his hand was a transparent bottle. The inside of the bottle was filled with yellow solution, and a brown tendril floated in the center, like the tentacle of some kind of deep-sea creature, but this twenty-cent tentacle looked like It is an independent individual, with a moving eye on the thicker upper part.

Even though the bottle used to preserve it has been specially treated, the aura of cruelty and madness still surges in the space.

Anderson walked through the showroom with the bottle in his hands very cautiously. Wherever he passed, the weird things or objects originally contained in the cabinet were very quiet.

"This is a very special high-risk item. It has a touch of suicide. Anyone who looks directly at it will have irresistible suicidal thoughts. Only a high-risk mind can resist without being affected."

Archbishop Guerra introduced, "It was captured by a special night watchman and sealed with his special extraordinary power. Now the power of the Touch of Suicide does not manifest outwards, but pressing the switch on the top of the bottle can allow that power to overflow. , we can control the magnitude of the power dissipation, which is usually used for testing high-risk night watchmen."

"Oh, that's interesting."

Lu Chen leaned over slightly and looked at the tentacle in the bottle held by Father Anderson.

The big eyeballs on the top of the tentacles that were originally spinning suddenly stopped moving and looked straight at Lu Chen, making eye contact with him.

But in less than half a second, under the surprised gazes of Archbishop Guerra and Anderson, Touch of Suicide actually closed his eyes!

The Touch of Suicide has no such thing as eyelids. It seems to be squeezing its "body" very hard, closing its eyes, and its entire tentacles curl up, looking wrinkled.

Lu Chen:......

He stood up straight and touched his face with his clean hand, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Because he just saw that this tentacle actually has such a charm value, it has 3 points!

Since he and Lu Lin made money from selling fish, he naturally used the excuse of buying clothes to put on the Duke of Killing again. As for the God Eater, you can choose to hide the jewelry and equipment in the origin space.

Not only is it visually hidden, but it can also be physically hidden into flesh and blood. This is to prevent melee explorers from wearing rings and affecting their combat performance.

So his charm is really at 0 point. In the personal details menu bar, you can see that the charm column is red and flashing.

"Hey, what's going on?"

Archbishop Guerra was puzzled. He took the bottle from Father Anderson, shook it slightly, and patted the bottle, but he couldn't open his eyes due to the touch of suicide.

Archbishop Guerra glanced at Lu Chen and had some guesses in his mind, but he was not sure. He reached out and turned the switch on the top of the bottle, allowing the touch of suicide to release the power that corrodes people's hearts.

But the Touch of Suicide was not happy because of the loosening of the seal. Instead, the entire tentacle curled up tighter, like a twisted snake, firmly protecting its eyes, which is where it exudes weird power. Core.

Archbishop Guerra was silent for a moment, and then tightened the switch again. He was not going to let Lu Chen try it anymore. He felt that something would go wrong.

The touch of suicide is no better than the cursed doll. It is an important possession of the parish of Noah Province and cannot be damaged.

"Well, Mr. Lu, it seems that I have underestimated you. You are a genius, the transcendent among the transcendent."

Archbishop Guerra handed the Touch of Suicide to Anderson and motioned for him to put it back where it was. He himself looked at Lu Chen's dirty right hand and said with a smile, "Maybe we should go back and wash up."

Lu Chen also felt sticky and uncomfortable on his hands. He could wash it away with spiritual power, but it did not belong to the power system of this world and he was easily questioned.

Having just come into contact with the Morning Embrace Church, he didn't want to act too abnormal, which was also Chu Zihang's suggestion.

Faced with a world where the upper limit of difficulty exceeds one's own strength, it is better not to be too high-profile when you are not clear about the background of these huge forces.

At present, Chu Zihang is developing very well in the country of steam and machinery. It is said that he has merged with Xia Mi, while Eri Yi is studying history in the royal capital. This is the preparation before their team makes big moves.

As a main combatant, his current priority is to thoroughly understand the power system of this world and how powerful the top leaders of the Morning Embrace Church are.

During this process, it would be great if we could lock in a list of explorers.

The door of the showroom was closed, and Leng Yue stood guard in front of the door again. She did not exchange eyes with Lu Chen, but her meaning had been conveyed.

For Leng Yue and Lu Chen, it was not difficult to hide some small tricks from Archbishop Guerra and Anderson, because they were both stronger than these two natives.

Returning to Archbishop Guerra's office along the passage, Lu Chen washed his hands in the indoor bathroom, while Archbishop Guerra changed into new clothes. He had some mysophobia and could not bear the liquid stained on his robes.

Finally, the two sides sat face to face on the sofa again. Archbishop Guerra said: "Mr. Lu, preliminary judgment shows that you have at least high-risk level strength. I can specially approve the subsidy for high-risk night watchmen to you. This is my maximum authority."

He brewed new tea himself, "But the process still needs to be done. Even I can't promote people who have just joined the church to high-risk night watchmen. After all, this involves the title and needs to be reviewed and approved by the royal capital. .”

"What's the process?"

Lu Chen took a sip of tea and said it was neither salty nor bland.

"The formal promotion process of the Night Watch is to release tasks related to the level to be advanced after the church has certified all aspects of quality. After completion, you can be promoted. With the privilege of the provincial archbishop, I can directly promote you to As a dangerous night watchman, as long as Mr. Lu completes a high-risk task, handles the incident, and has a record, I can formally apply to the royal capital."

Archbishop Guerra explained that his authority was limited, not because he didn't want to help Lu Chen get there in one step.

"The rules are understandable, but what about subsidies?"

Lu Chen nodded.

"The high-risk level will be distributed first, and the mansion and title will be obtained after you are officially promoted."

Archbishop Guerra smiled and said, he was in a good mood at this time.

Being satisfied with his decision and discovering good talents will be a great achievement. Lu Chen's starting point is very high, and it may only take some time to become a special class in the future.

Before the other party is transferred from above, he will be a powerful guardian of the parish of Noah Province.

"Can."

Lu Chen readily agreed.

Archbishop Guerra asked with a smile: "Aren't you afraid of fighting those beings in the night?"

This is the doubt that has always been hidden in his heart. The young man in front of him is too calm. Even if he is a transcendent, he should not have actually experienced a fight with the weird. Why is he always so calm?

He spoke without any hesitation. Lu Chen should understand that being a night watchman is actually a high-risk profession, but the other party did not hesitate at all. Instead, his focus was always on benefits.

"I just thought it was interesting and maybe it would help me remember what happened back then."

Lu Chen smiled lightly.

Archbishop Guerra was not surprised that Lu Chen could not remember what happened ten years ago, because the Transcendent was in a semi-collapse state during the initial stage of madness. After too long, it would be difficult to recall what happened in the first place.

The two stood up. Archbishop Guerra shook hands with Lu Chen and said, "Welcome Mr. Lu to join the Morning Embrace Church. We hope that our efforts can make the night no longer scary. You can go home now. I heard that you have someone who loves you very much." Sister, say hello to her for me."

"I will bring the Archbishop's words. My sister will be very happy. She longs for the Morning Support Church."

Lu Chen smiled.

Archbishop Guerra thought for a while, "Your sister once studied in a public seminary in this city. If she still wants to join the Morning Embrace Church, I can give special approval to let her become an ordinary nun and she can study in the church library. Study the scriptures.”

"I want to ask my sister again, and thank the Archbishop for his kindness."

Lu Chen did not agree on the spot. Even if this was a good thing Lu Lin longed for, he believed that he should have asked the person involved before letting her decide. This was respect.

Before leaving, Lu Chen paused and asked, "Excuse me, Archbishop, what do night watchmen usually do? Do they need to check attendance? Do high-risk incidents take a long time to happen?"

The last issue is what he is particularly concerned about. If there are only one or two cases every six months, he will have to change his strategy. Caution is one thing, but his patience is not that strong.

However, Archbishop Guerra's expression became serious, and the candle behind him lengthened the old man's shadow. "Mr. Lu, there are far more dangers in the night than you think."

He walked side by side with Lu Chen and sent him out. "Safety and dangerous night watchmen usually need to report to the church and be assigned some basic tasks. High-risk watchmen do not need to come to the church and are on standby. Mr. Lu can enjoy a leisurely time at home." days, according to my experience, if it is within the province or district, you will get the promotion task within two weeks."

It was already past eleven o'clock at night, Archbishop Guerra was also preparing to "get off work", while Father Anderson stayed in the church.

The old man and Lu Chen walked all the way outside the church. Before parting, he turned back and said, "By the way, if you are not so busy, you can come to the church again tomorrow morning. Father Anderson will help you choose a batch of equipment. Believe me, even if you are already very busy, you can come to the church again tomorrow morning." If you are strong, you will always feel that it is not enough when facing those things.”

Lu Chen thanked him and said goodbye to Archbishop Guerra. The archbishop didn't know whether he was pretending or was really "incorruptible" and actually walked home.

When I meet pedestrians who are rare at this time of day on the road, I will greet them with a smile, which makes those people feel flattered.

Lu Chen followed his memory and came to the house where he and Lu Lin lived, and finally got a preliminary understanding of the mysterious side of this world.

…………

In the early morning five days later, Lu Chen was meditating alone in the house.

After hearing what Archbishop Guerra said, Lu Lin expressed her willingness to become a nun. She loved studying scriptures and becoming a priest was her dream.

So early in the morning, she ran to Ocalan Cathedral to pray. She spent the past few days in the church library, as if she had regained her youth as a student.

Lu Chen was not lazy at home. Apart from communicating with Chu Zihang and the others, he was meditating and perfecting his Martial Emperor Sutra.

After arriving at the place abandoned by the gods, he became more convinced of his previous thoughts. If the way of heaven does not exist and the world changes, can the law still last forever?

He must make his own path, unfettered by any external factors.

Dong dong dong——

Lu Chen opened the door, and standing outside was an old acquaintance, Wang Tao.

Wang Tao looked solemn at this time, saluted Lu Chen and said: "Mr. Lu, you need to go on a mission."

For a moment, Lu Chen felt that this scene seemed a little familiar, and he asked, "Where is the mission objective?"

"In the city of Defias in the northern part of Noah's province, high-risk mysterious items appeared. They were items that the church had failed to contain, so there are records."

Wang Tao briefly narrated, "It's called...Death Note."
