Chapter 4 Hidden Mission
The post about Floy's life background in the previous life was not very long. It may also be because the player who wrote the post at the time didn't know much about it, but the above information was enough for Chen Lun to come up with a temporary response plan.
Floy was born in the slums.
Her father is a gambler, her mother is a dancer, and she has a brother who loves her very much.
She is pure in nature and beautiful in appearance.
The gangsters and drunkards near her home all wanted to take advantage of her, but fortunately, her brother stepped forward to protect her from the wind and rain.
Although her brother was beaten and injured every time, he would always turn back to her with a grin on his face with a bruised face, comforting and encouraging her not to be afraid.
It seems that as long as her brother is by her side, she can feel at ease and happy.
The good times did not last long, as famine and plague enveloped the town.
A large number of civilians died in this natural disaster.
Food is getting less and less, prices are getting higher and higher, and the already poor Frey family can no longer untie the pot.
The lazy father and the mean mother discussed and planned to sell Floy to the Baron Barnett family in the town.
Although Floy was only fourteen years old at the time, and long-term malnutrition had made her a little thin, her appearance and body had grown, and her delicate face hid a bit of future surprise.
She can definitely get a good price.
That's what parents think.
Of course, even if the Baron Barnett family has a bad reputation.
For example, the young and old men in the Baron's family all have weird and even perverted hobbies, and you can often hear rumors of maids dying suddenly.
But Floy's parents, who are greedy for money, don't care about this.
Fortunately, Floy's brother stopped his parents from doing this crazy thing.
In order to protect his sister, he offered to work for the Red Apple Church in exchange for a large amount of money.
At that time, the Red Apple Church was actively recruiting young adults, threatening to build a statue for the church’s deity, Lady Rose.
However, many young adults who signed up did not come back. The church’s explanation was that an accident happened at the stone quarry.
Because of the generous compensation and the strength of the church, this incident did not cause much trouble.
Floy's brother also became one of the unfortunate ones and never came back.
After she heard the news, before she had time to grieve, she was sold to the church by her cold-blooded parents.
Just because the church was generous, Father Carter, who came with the compensation for his brother's death, took a fancy to her and said that she was the best choice to serve Mrs. Rose...
……
"What's wrong with you?"
Floy asked softly.
The young man was slightly startled after hearing the question, and raised his head to look at the red-robed nun.
But he quickly lowered his gaze and tilted his head slightly, as if he didn't want this holy girl to see his cowardly expression of crying.
"I...I miss my sister."
"Do you have a sister?"
"Yeah."
Chen Lun hugged his knees and huddled in the corner of the prison.
He began to crazily recall scenes from his past life in his mind. In fact, he was not lying. He did have a sister.
Chen Lun once had a beautiful family. Although they were not rich, they had no worries about food and clothing.
However, his father died young due to a family hereditary disease, and both his sister and him were no exception and all suffered from such diseases.
The mother could not withstand the pressure of life and abandoned the two siblings and ran away from home.
The brother and sister who depended on each other could only rely on the social welfare at that time to survive, but there was no extra money for medical treatment.
The genetic disease in their family is very complex.
Even with the medical technology at the time, it required a lot of money to control the disease, and it could not cure it.
Later, my sister also left.
Chen Lun was heartbroken.
In fact, he has no great pursuits. He only hopes to see more and wider scenery in the remaining short life.
Fortunately, there is the holographic game "The Age of Secrets", which allows him to lie in a second-hand and old sleeping cabin and experience a wonderful life...
"We are orphans, our parents left us very early...
Although the days when my sister and I depended on each other were very painful, we were also very happy. Unfortunately, I will never see her again. ”
Chen Lun lowered his head and spoke calmly and slowly.
He recalled everything he had with his sister and was moved by his true feelings.
The tears may be deliberately sensational, but the sadness is real.
Floy could clearly feel the sadness coming from the young man.
That emotion became more and more intense, making her involuntarily think of her brother, and at the same time, she ignored the glimmer of the necklace around Chen Lun's neck.
"Brother..."
Floy tightened her fingers as she seemed to have made a decision.
She bent slightly and moved closer to Chen Lun.
"Eat the cake, but don't eat the apple, remember..."
After whispering, Floy returned to his expressionless posture and turned to leave.
[Acquire favorability with Floy and establish a bond with Floy]
[Open A-level hidden serial mission: Sister Serenity]
Chen Lun was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed.
I was just acting out a scene, but I didn't expect to trigger an extremely rare hidden mission, an A-level serial mission!
He resisted the splitting headache that made his sanity -1 again after using [Siren Song]. After taking a deep breath, he quickly braced himself to check the mission instructions.
[First Ring: Under the premise of ensuring Floy’s survival, rescue her from the Emerald Town branch of the Red Apple Church. Floy’s death will be regarded as a mission failure]
[Task reward: 2000 experience points, 40 silver coins, Floy favorability, and [low-sequence flesh and blood faction mysterious substance]*1]
[Note: This task will arouse the hostility and attention of the Red Apple Church, please make your decision carefully]
"Accept!"
Chen Lun did not hesitate at all and decisively accepted the task.
Leaving aside the final reward of this hidden mission, the reward given in the first link is the resource he desperately needs.
What's more, how could he just watch this poor girl suffer in the fire pit...
"My biggest shortcoming is that I like to be nosy... Alas, being too upright is not a good thing. I was targeted by the Red Apple Church and was deprived of good juice."
He wiped the remaining tears from his face and almost cried again because of his justice.
Although he pretended to be pitiful and sympathetic, and even used the hypnotic ability of the necklace unscrupulously, it was just to bring him closer to Floy, hoping to increase the chance of escaping here.
Receiving the hidden mission was a pure surprise. He had originally planned to save Floy.
When I learned about the tragic experience of this villainous boss in my previous life, I felt sorry for her.
Now that he has such an opportunity, he will not let it go easily.
Chen Lun thought about his next move and began to bite the unleavened bread in his hand.
The pancake was not very tasty, but Chen Lun was so hungry that he swallowed it in three gulps.
Following Floy's warning, he did not eat the apple, but secretly stuffed the apple into the mouse hole in the corner.
Soon, Chen Lun discovered something was wrong.
The young men and women who had finished the "Holy Communion" stood up one after another.
Their eyes are empty, their mouths are wide, and they smile like stupid fools.
Chen Lun was stunned by this scene.
Realizing that he would look out of place sitting any longer, he quickly stood up.
At this moment, footsteps were heard in the corridor outside the prison, and the black shadow reflected on the opposite wall was getting closer.
Chen Lun cursed secretly and immediately imitated the fool-like smiles of the people around him.
His eyes were empty, his mouth was wide open, and his tongue was dripping out.
He blends in perfectly with the group. (End of chapter)
