Chapter 292 Ultimate Beauty
Chen Lun didn't know whether Lucy's revelation was true or false, or half-truth or half-false.
But he knew that he could not let the other party continue like this.
I don't know if it's because of the mythical power in Lucy's blood. Even if she doesn't actively release her extraordinary charm, her every smile and casual words and deeds contain the ultimate beauty, which makes people easily indulge in it.
Chen Lun raised his hand gently, and Lucy's whole body levitated, and then she was moved to the sofa next to her with a look of surprise.
She saw the indifference on Mr. Jack's face, and her heart trembled.
"I...I didn't mean it, Mr. Jack."
Like a child who had done something wrong, Lucy lowered her head in grievance.
She wanted to look at that handsome face again, and wanted to fall into that warm and safe embrace, but she didn't dare to do so because she was worried that she would be disgusted by the other person.
"But everything I said is true, don't leave me, okay? Please..."
Lucy whispered.
Chen Lun sighed secretly.
After he rescued Lucy and took her to this hotel in Peacock City to settle down temporarily, he received a favorability prompt.
The other party's favorable impression of him now has directly reached [worship].
And the two parties also signed a shadow contract, so Chen Lun dared to show his original appearance in front of her.
But when he thought of bringing Lucy back to the winery, Chen Lun always felt like there were live fish crawling on his body, which was a little creepy.
"Hand out."
Chen Lun said as calmly as possible.
"Huh?"
Lucy looked up in surprise.
"Ah...Okay, Mr. Jack."
As she spoke, she stretched out her little hand.
Although she looks fair, she is a bit rough and has calluses, which is probably caused by the environment in which she grew up.
Lucy looked a little embarrassed, as if she didn't want Mr. Jack, whom she admired, to see her ugly side.
Chen Lun didn't make any expression. He just stretched out his hand and gently placed it on it.
[You used "Animal Imitation LVMAX+3"! 】
[You have learned and memorized the characteristics of the extraordinary creature "Lucy"-"Extreme Beauty"! 】
‘Sure enough...’
Chen Lun secretly thought.
‘Lucy’s situation is special. I can get extraordinary biological properties from her. ’
Immediately afterwards, he calmed down and observed this newly acquired characteristic.
The effect of [Ultimate Beauty] is somewhat similar to [Hell Resistance] and [Cursed Skin], and is more passive. It can provide Chen Lun with a powerful charm attribute bonus, and at the same time obtain a biologically friendly aura, which can be effective on both humans and animals.
With it, you have a natural foundation of favorability.
In addition, if you release it actively, you can change your appearance and breath, somewhat like the effect of [Star Mist Pot]. But compared with the silver pot, it is more convenient and hidden, and there is no need to worry about falling into the mood of "self-deception".
'It directly increased my charm points by more than ten points, and the total charm reached forty points... This characteristic is quite powerful. ’
Chen Lun was secretly surprised.
It is particularly difficult to improve special attribute points, and this feature is worth retaining.
He thought for a while and directly removed the [Touch of the Abyss] and replaced it with [Ultimate Beauty].
‘Try not to have too much to do with the deep sea. If you replace it as soon as possible, you can feel more at ease. ’
Lucy noticed that Mr. Jack had fallen silent and couldn't help but look up cautiously.
Her eyes gradually widened and her mouth opened slightly.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that Mr. Jack's originally handsome face had become more holy and profound at this moment, full of alluring beauty.
This kind of beauty even transcends gender. It seems that any creature with aesthetics can feel the inner desire from it.
Moreover, there is an invisible atmosphere and an indescribable aura that emanates from Mr. Jack and surrounds him. It's like the mixed floral fragrance in spring, or the restless mood when tossing and turning in the middle of the night, making people indulge in it unconsciously.
"Mr. Jack, I seem to have fallen in love with you..."
Lucy's eyes were blurry and her cheeks were red.
"Lucy."
Chen Lun called her name.
Lucy trembled all over, she exclaimed, immediately stood up, covered her face and ran to the bathroom, leaving only one sentence:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Jack, I...it seems that I haven't dried my body yet."
Chen Lun looked at her back and shook his head helplessly.
‘It seems that the charm value is too high, and not all is a good thing...’
Soon, he frowned again.
Because Chen Lun suddenly discovered something very strange.
‘Huh… I remember that on Lucy’s dashboard, her luck value was 9 points. Why is it now 13 points? ’
This change made him confused and made some guesses.
‘Could it be that I saved her and changed her fatal fate, which led to the change in luck... Let’s take a closer look. If this is the case, she can help me do something with her high luck. ’
For example, look for opportunities in Peacock City!
Opportunities that you have been searching for to no avail may automatically pop up in front of people with high luck... Fate is so unreasonable sometimes.
‘And Lucy’s mysterious talent is pretty good. If you cultivate it a little, it might have unexpected effects in the future. ’
Chen Lun thought so.
After a while.
Lucy came out of the bathroom again. She lowered her head and came to the sofa to sit down, her movements a little reserved. At the same time, she was secretly cursing her slutty body, and she had an embarrassing reaction just by looking at Mr. Jack.
"Mr. Jack, can I really not follow you? I can just be your maid for free..."
She looked up with a pitiful expression.
Chen Lun glanced at this beautiful girl and confirmed his guess.
The opponent's luck value rose to 15 points in just a moment, and it seemed to be still improving.
"You underestimate your own talents and talents, Lucy. At this age, you should go to school instead of following me and being an idle maid..."
Chen Lun shook his head.
A look of loss and sadness suddenly appeared on Lucy's face, and tears began to well up in her eyes, threatening to fall like meteors at any time.
But the next moment, she was stunned.
Because Mr. Jack took out a small bag of gold coins, about forty or fifty, and handed them to her.
"This is a grant from me. I hope you can use it reasonably and rely on your own ability to enter Omto College and become a student there..."
Chen Lun said.
"Omto Academy... only recruits smart people who have gone through systematic study. Even ordinary rich and powerful people cannot force their children into it, but I..."
Lucy looked at Mr. Jack in front of her in surprise.
She hesitated for a few seconds, then gritted her teeth and took the purse.
"Is this a test for me from Mr. Jack? I will try my best to complete it!"
"You are very ambitious, but I hope you are going to study and pursue a better self... You can understand it as a test, but is it not an opportunity for you? I hope you can understand, Lucy.”
Chen Lun leaned on the sofa and said slowly.
"I will...Thank you, Mr. Jack."
Lucy held the money bag in her arms and nodded heavily.
"If you really do it, I hope you will help me pay attention to a person, or a book..."
Chen Lun said.
Lucy blinked and looked at him seriously.
"A student named 'Francis', and a mysterious book called 'Carmen's Notes'."

In fact, Chen Lun didn't have high expectations for Lucy.
Because behind the Omto Academy District is the "Madman School" of the Magical Righteous God Church, if there were any mysterious books, they would have probably found them long ago... Although this group of people is indifferent to the world, they have a kind of knowledge. Almost fanatical persistence.
The School of Madmen is naturally a sect where a group of madmen gather.
But since it was a casual chess game, Chen Lun just treated it as an investment.
After he left the hotel, he took a taxi and gave the name "Jack's Winery". However, the driver didn't know where he was at the first time, so Chen Lun had to explain it to him.
The driver now understood that the owner of the winery near the center of Peacock had changed, and his attitude suddenly became more respectful.
Chen Lun just sat in the carriage, admiring the scenery along the way.
Frequent outings in the past few days also gave him a rough idea of the environment near the winery.
The local shelter and historical and ritual society in Peacock City are not too far from the winery. They are also located in the city center, but in different directions, forming an inverted triangle.
As for the Madman School, it is near the academy area.
At this time, Chen Lun's gaze suddenly froze as he looked out the window.
Although it was just a glimpse, his powerful dynamic vision directly recorded several announcements on a wall he passed by in his mind.
‘Missing notices, reports of missing young women, and warnings posted by the security office have prompted female residents nearby to be cautious when going out at night...’
Chen Lun pondered for a moment.
‘Did that auction cause it? Do you want to go and have a look...'

A few days passed.
Chen Lun has not received any message from Miss Tracy, as if she has forgotten the agreement between the two parties. But he knew in his heart that even if Miss Tracy was unwilling to investigate, she would still reply to him. This was the most basic etiquette for a nobleman.
Chen Lun guessed that this young lady was probably grounded by her father, Viscount Harrington.
After all, people have been sent to attack her, so it is impossible to let her travel as she pleases.
‘By doing this, you are hindering me in disguise...’
Chen Lun sighed.
'I originally wanted to teach you a lesson later, but now you are forcing me to take action... Talking about human trafficking, I don't like it at all. ’
He took out a silver cane and stood up from the chair in the study.
Several playing cards flew out of the card pile on the table and floated in front of Chen Lun, guiding him in the direction. (End of chapter)
