Chapter 484 Treasure Old Man
"Mr. Jack, this..."
Carmen's old face suddenly wrinkled up, showing an embarrassed look.
"Don't get me wrong, Master Carmen. I have just ascended to the holy throne, and I am somewhat curious about the mythical creature forms of other high-ranking people. I have no intention of offending or exploring."
Chen Lun smiled.
"Sigh... I see that you don't mean any harm, Jack. After all, you saved my old life, but..."
Carmen sighed and fell into silence.
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
He secretly said, this old guy is quite reserved.
"Master Carmen, you just... seemed to have spied on the form of the mythical creature below?"
He said intentionally or unintentionally.
Carmen's face changed slightly and she quickly waved her hand to explain:
"Absolutely not..."
"But after the transformation, my perception has been qualitatively enhanced... I saw a line of sight just now. Is it my illusion? Or is there someone else besides you and me in this mural world?"
Chen Lun rubbed his chin and said slowly.
Carmen coughed, suddenly feeling embarrassed.
Although he subjectively did not want to spy on this young man's extraordinary transformation process, he had no choice but to see the other party making too much movement just now, and he still caught a glimpse of the fleeting pale giant shadow.
In a sense, I am indeed at a loss.
"Now... you don't want Ms. Fredrick to know that your student secretly pried into other people's secrets, but then denied it in the end, right?"
Chen Lun chuckled and gave a heavy blow.
Carmen was startled at first, then her face turned dark.
He now understood that the young man in front of him was only polite on the surface, but was dirty at heart. He would do whatever it took to achieve his goal... and he even used this to threaten an old man like himself.
"Okay, okay..."
He sighed.
Immediately afterwards, Carmen was seen throwing her backpack and pointed hat aside.
His skinny body suddenly began to deform, swelling and rising to a height of eight or nine meters in the blink of an eye. His originally normal skin turned into a gray-black stone surface, engraved with dense and mysterious patterns, shimmering with blue light.
A "giant statue" equivalent to a three-story building suddenly appeared in front of Chen Lun, but Chen Lun raised his head and his expression became particularly weird.
I saw that this statue had a beautiful and mature face, but it was very similar to Ms. Frederic, with her eyes closed and a smile on her face. It has four arms covered with dark green crystals, holding a giant "staff hammer" together.
It's just that this "stick" is in the shape of a human, a young man who is completely naked and has his hands folded in front of his chest. His face is similar to Carmen's, resembling what she looked like when she was young.
'No wonder this old guy is reluctant... It turns out that his mythical creature form actually looks like this. If Ms. Frederic knew about it, I'm afraid it would be very embarrassing...'
Chen Lun thought to himself.
A strong mythical aura spread from the statue, and the ground around it trembled... If an ordinary person, or even a low-sequence extraordinary person, stood here, even if he just took a look, he would be contaminated on the spot and lose control!
This is the terrifying thing about high-ranking people showing their true appearance.
However, Chen Lun has now reached a high position, and his mysterious resistance has been transformed. The other party's mythical aura is like a spring breeze, and has no impact on him.
‘It’s time to take action...’
Chen Lun secretly thought.
Without any warning, he appeared beside the statue and quietly stretched out his fingers.
[You used the skill "Animal Imitation LVMAX+5"! 】
[The characteristic of the mythical creature "Carmen" - the "Skull of Enlightenment" - has been detected! 】
‘Sure enough, we can continue to imitate...’
Chen Lun felt happy.
When he first woke up from the transformation, he briefly checked his condition. At that time, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the pollution from Clarenzo on his body not only disappeared, but also turned into a mythical creature characteristic that he could use.
Not only that, but there is also an additional characteristic of a mythical creature called the "String of Mourning". After looking through the panel records, he was shocked to find out that they were characteristics obtained from the bone-burying old man Bancroft...
After recalling and inferring, Chen Lun roughly guessed that the tombstone in the hand of the yellow-robed clay man in the painting could probably borrow the power of other high-ranking people from the past historical line. As luck would have it, he replenished the power of the painting, and although he rescued Carmen, he also made her "alive" and attack him.
If he hadn't happened to be in a state of transformation for promotion, he might have been unable to escape death.
'Because my consciousness was in a coma at the time, the panel was optimized independently and eliminated two extraordinary biological characteristics for me...'Split Resurrection' and 'Decaying Blood' were gone, and the vacated position was left for 'Crystal Cells' and 'Strings of Mourning'. ’
Chen Lun did not feel sorry for this, because this was a characteristic of a mythical creature at the level of angels and gods! Without a huge opportunity, it would be a fool's errand for him to obtain such a rare characteristic!
‘Now that the panel attributes have reached a terrifying level, and my mysterious resistance has also undergone transformation, the ‘cursed skin’ is no longer of much use to me, so get rid of it. ’
Chen Lundang even removed this extraordinary biological characteristic and replaced it with the mythical biological characteristic of Carmen.
[You learned and imitated the characteristics of the mythical creature "Carmen" - the "Skull of Enlightenment"! 】
Chen Lun suppressed the joy in his heart and tried to perform [Animal Mimicry] on the huge statue in front of him again.
[You used the skill "Animal Imitation LVMAX+5"! 】
[Detected the characteristic of the mythical creature "Carmen" - "golem life"! 】
'besides! ’
Surprise flashed in Chen Lun's eyes.
‘What a treasure old man...’
This time he chose to eliminate the extraordinary creature characteristic "Spiritual Breath" and gave its place to the new mythical creature characteristic "Golem Life". Chen Lun did not read the description in detail. After a general glance, he took action again, intending to continue to take advantage of the old mage.
However, this time it failed.
Although Chen Lun was slightly disappointed, he was actually satisfied.
'It's enough to get two characteristics from Carmen... I just don't know where my limit is now? Is it possible to replace all ten memory slots with the characteristics of mythical creatures...'
He secretly guessed that he planned to try again if he had the opportunity in the future.
At this point, he already has four characteristics of mythical creatures. Although he has not gone through detailed research and development, he knows very well that this will definitely improve his own strength.
As for his current strength, he has no idea.
Boom...
With a dull and loud noise, the statue began to shrink and returned to the thin figure of a white-haired old man.
"Jack, what did you just do?"
Carmen walked over slowly, frowning and asked in a deep voice.
Chen Lun knew that his actions could not be hidden from the other party, so he said frankly:
"Learn."
Carmen stared at him, waiting for an explanation.
"After I was promoted, I discovered that the mythical creature form of a high-ranking person is actually the embodiment of his great power... Even if you just observe it up close, you can learn a lot of valuable things from it."
Chen Lun said seriously.
"Oh? What did you learn from me?"
Carmen pretended to be curious.
"Learned nothing."
Chen Lun shrugged.
The white-haired old man's eyes twitched.
"The time is too short, naturally nothing can be seen... If you show it a little more, maybe if you do more research, you can get results."
Chen Lun suggested with a smile.
"Forget it."
Carmen shook her head in refusal.
In fact, he knew very well that the kid in front of him probably had some secrets, but he was not interested in exploring it... The other party's little action just now did not have any adverse effects on him, so he simply didn't bother to pay attention to it.
"Mr. Jack, please keep this matter confidential."
He said in a deep voice.
"Of course."
Chen Lun nodded.
"Although I have just ascended to the holy throne, I also know that the form of mythical creatures is the deepest secret of high-ranking people... I promise not to tell any third party about this, well, especially Ms. Frederic."
< br>
"You don't need to stress!"
Carmen said a little angrily.
The white beard on his face trembled. After taking a few breaths, he turned around and picked up the backpack and pointed hat on the ground before saying goodbye.
"Thank you again, Jack, but I've been trapped here for a long time... I want to go back to the Meteor Tower and see you again in the future."
After saying that, the old mage turned around and left, moving in a hurry and unwilling to stay for a moment.
"Hey, Master Carmen, please don't leave yet."
Chen Lun quickly stopped the other party.
The old man looked helpless and looked back at him.
After all, he was his savior, and he couldn't treat her coldly. Moreover, the other party has now been promoted to a high position and is a saint of the same level as herself. Carmen does not want to antagonize the other party.
"Please leave a token for future contact... When I have some free time, I would also like to ask you about magic."
Chen Lun said with a chuckle.
This is a magic saint. After rescuing the opponent, his favorability has increased a lot, and there will be a wave of improvement in favorability after the mission is completed... How could he let him go so easily with the help of such good connections?
The old man sighed, rummaged through his backpack, took out an emerald green glass ball the size of a finger, and handed it over.
"My messenger is a bit picky. It is best to give energy crystals as a reward when delivering the message..."
After saying that, he no longer waited for Chen Lun's response, turned into a translucent spirit body as if fleeing, and disappeared immediately.
Chen Lun played with the glass ball in his hand and raised his eyebrows.
‘I’m not a devil, why is this old guy running so fast...’
He shook his head and put away the token.
He immediately turned around and took one last look at the collapsed ruins, followed in Carmen's footsteps and left the world of murals.
Just returned to the dark world.
Chen Lun received the prompt that popped up on the panel——
[Completed A-level mission: Gatekeeper’s Worry! 】
[Get mission rewards: 50W experience points, 20 attribute points, 10 special attribute points, and the favorability of Frederic and Carmen! 】(End of this chapter)
