Chapter 573 Expectations (please vote for me!)
"Mr. Jack, it's time for lunch."
came a respectful female voice.
Chen Lun put down the newspaper, turned around and saw Connie standing next to the sofa with a smile on her face.
"Okay."
He nodded slightly and stood up immediately.
Following Connie to the restaurant, circus officials and members of the Jinbei Council were also present. They all greeted Chen Lun and saluted.
"No need to be polite, let's move on."
Chen Lun sat down at the main seat, smiled and raised his hand to indicate.
Everyone then thanked him and picked up their knives and forks to enjoy the food.
Although Chen Lun himself no longer needs to eat, he still has lunch or dinner with everyone when he has time on weekdays, because he enjoys such a warm atmosphere more than the "unkindness" of other high-ranking people.
bite!
Chen Lun and Floy clinked glasses.
The girl in the black dress raised her swan-like white neck and took a sip of wine, her cheeks flushed.
"How's it going? Does it taste good?"
Chen Lun held up his cup and asked with a chuckle.
"Yeah."
Floy narrowed her eyes and nodded.
"Then drink more."
Chen Lun picked up a handkerchief, gently wiped the wine from the corner of Floy's mouth, and under her beautiful gaze, he refilled his glass.
He immediately handed the exquisite wine bottle to Connie and said with a smile:
"Pour it in for everyone."
"Yes, Mr. Jack."
Connie took the bottle of wine very obediently, stood up and poured a glass of wine for everyone present. The wine is fragrant, and everyone who drinks it can't help but look surprised.
Because they found that their own mysterious accumulation had increased significantly, and even ordinary people like Connie and Alex felt that their bodies were more energetic.
"Mr. Jack, is this your new wine?"
Maggie asked curiously and excitedly.
She returned to her previous slovenly appearance, with long messy hair. Perhaps she felt that dressing up as a nun every day was too much of a waste of time, so she slowly returned to her true nature.
Everyone also looked up at the main seat.
They all knew that Mr. Jack had a knack for making wine.
However, the black hat gentleman smiled and shook his head and explained:
"No, this bottle of wine was given by His Majesty Conrad. If you like it, I have a few bottles here for you to enjoy on weekdays."
"Your Majesty Conrad?"
Maggie muttered in confusion.
She frowned at first, then gradually opened her mouth.
"Is it... His Majesty the King of Slaughter?!"
Only then did Maggie realize that everyone present had put down their knives and forks in unison, with the same expression as hers, too shocked to speak.
"Praise be to you, Lord Jack Spate."
Frey and the other two Gold Cup members raised their wine glasses in awe and greeted the man in the black hat on the main seat.
The Lord they believed in actually favored Sir Jack so much, and even doted on him far more than Speaker Azgierro... For some reason, the wine in his hand seemed to have some kind of sacred and noble meaning.
Unlike the awe of these Jinbei MPs, the circus officials were full of excitement and pride.
After Mr. Jack, the leader of the group, was promoted to a high position, he seemed to have moved into an even more unpredictable circle. Not only did he make friends with high-ranking saints and demigods from all major forces... Now, he can actually compete with His Majesty Conrad. Great beings communicate and receive rewards.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but the cadres even felt that Mr. Jack's tone when he said His Majesty Conrad just now was not the believer's piety and gratitude to the Lord God... but more like the peace and casualness of introducing a friend.
This strikes them as ridiculous.
But there is something indescribable about it.
Mr. Jack, He will really be like the Magi said on New Year's Eve... become an eternal being!
Is he the subordinate god of the King of Slaughter?
Or the new god of Destiny Path?
No one knows.
But they all firmly believe that Mr. Jack will definitely leave a deep imprint and legend in history!
And their followers might also be able to participate in that great moment and become big figures admired and envied by countless people...
Everyone enjoyed this wonderful lunch in a warm and pleasant atmosphere with infinite longing and expectation.

During the leisure time after the meal, Chen Lun gave Antonio the "red crystal ball" that His Majesty Conrad had given him.
There are dozens of high-level substances of flesh and blood inside, all of which were left behind after the death of Louisa and the four members of the Ten Cores. There are also two blood diamonds that are highly concentrated from sinful blood.
These are all "big tonics" for Antonio.
It can help it quickly accumulate mystery.
Anton is not a human being. If he wants to transform into a mythical creature, he does not need to learn the knowledge of the corresponding path, so he does not need a sanctification ceremony to assist digestion...
But correspondingly, such a promotion method is extremely dangerous.
Without enough influence as an anchor point of support, it is quite easy to lose control. It is purely using the massive accumulation of mystery to complete the transformation of life levels.
This primitive method of promotion is only applicable to non-human creatures.
For example, those mythical creatures that have existed in history, most of them are rare existences in the group of extraordinary creatures. Through the accumulation of long time and many incredible adventures, myths have been created.
In the process, countless members of the same race died.
It is equivalent to raising Gu.
Anton's situation is different.
It has a parasitic relic of the blasphemous Ragnar in its body. The super-A grade [Profane Holy Sword] can be used as a transit medium to help absorb the mysterious power and then feed it back to its body.
The failure rate is virtually reduced.
Dozens of high-level flesh and blood substances and two blood diamonds, this is a treasure-like opportunity for any extraordinary creature.
After all, there are not so many demigods and saints in this world to eat.
Coupled with Anton's own tenacious willpower and Chen Lun's protection, the possibility of it transforming into a mythical creature is not low... No matter what, Chen Lun can use [Jingzhe] to protect it from losing control and turning into a monster. .
"Thank you, Mr. Jack."
Antonio put away the cup of "red crystal ball", his ears twitched and his eyes showed deep emotion.
"You gave Anton freedom and a home, and also gave Anton the opportunity to become stronger... If Anton can become a stronger cow, he will never forget your kindness!"
"I believe you can do it."
Chen Lun smiled, nodded, and touched its head.
But he was thinking in his heart that if Anton could transform, he could also get some characteristics of mythical creatures from it... After being promoted to [Dramatist], he could vaguely feel the ten memory grids of [Animal Mimicry]. Here, the remaining five slots can vaguely accept the characteristics of mythical creatures.
But it may be that the level is not enough, so it cannot be completely unlocked.
Perhaps in the near future, when the level rises, I can use this to continue to improve my strength to a higher level!
Anton was sent away.
Chen Lun sat on the sofa and rested alone.
He took out the claw hammer that he had taken from Terrence and held it flat in his hand for a closer look.
[S-level magic object-Aries Hammer]
Item description: A powerful strange object that contains the power of the sun. It looks like a claw hammer. The eyes carved on the sheep's head are always burning with incandescent flames. It has unparalleled shaping power and is a symbol of forging.
Item effect: It can shoot out the mythical fire that melts everything, refining matter and energy back to its original state, and by smashing it, it can shape its final shape according to its own thoughts.
The rest are unknown.
Item price: It requires your own physical strength, water and sanity. The effect of use is linked to your own body temperature. The higher the body temperature, the stronger the mythical fire.
Note: The mythical fire does not distinguish between friend and foe, both itself and the target will be burned equally.
‘It is indeed a Sun Church town-level monster, very powerful. ’
Chen Lun admired secretly.
Immediately, regret appeared in his eyes.
'But it's not suitable for me to use... to be precise, it's not suitable for use by extraordinary people who are not on the solar path. ’
There are two extremely strict restrictions in the panel description.
First, the effect is linked to body temperature, which only those with extraordinary abilities in the solar pathway can perfectly adapt to. The second is that both the enemy and ourselves are burned at the same time. If an ordinary extraordinary person hits it with a hammer, he will be burned first.
Even though Chen Lun has high temperature resistance blessed by [Hell Resistance], it is only a characteristic of extraordinary creatures. It is somewhat unrealistic to use it to exempt this S-class monster from the mythical fire.
‘It would be nice if this hammer could produce one-tenth of the effect in my hand... It’s a pity. ’
Chen Lun put it away.
In any case, it is also the treasure of the Sun Church. Even if it is not used by itself, it is equivalent to a share of the only divinity of the Sun Path.
Its value is self-evident!
In the future, if you use it as a bargaining chip, you may be able to make deals with high-ranking people from the three Starry Sky families... Chen Lun believes that no demigod or angel can refuse such a temptation.

It's approaching evening.
A guest who came all the way from the Royal City walked into the generous church area amidst the respectful greetings of Priest Richman and others, and headed straight towards the residential area behind the cathedral.
He wore the vertical gray robe of a consul, covering up his enchanting figure. Underneath the calm face with light make-up, there was some anxiety and nervousness hidden.
As soon as Frey walked out of the door on the first floor, he saw the person coming.
He was stunned for a moment, then quickly took off his hat and saluted.
"Member Frey of the Gold Cup has met Her Majesty Landa."
"No need to be polite, I'm here to meet Mr. Jack."
Randa forced a smile and said.
Frey was secretly surprised by the other party's address to Lord Jack. At the same time, he guessed the purpose of the consul's visit. He naturally stretched out his hand and bowed his head, and replied politely:
"Lord Jack Spate is reading in the living room."
"Okay, thank you."
Landa smiled and nodded, then cautiously walked into the door.
Frey turned around and looked at the back of His Majesty, feeling even more confused.
As far as he knew, the four consuls Landa, Malek, Houston and Meade had never been able to deal with their faction.
After Governor Houston died in the line of duty, the mutual opposition became more intense... Now, why did Governor Landa suddenly come here?
It seems that there is an indescribable sense of flattery.
Frey felt an inexplicable feeling of relief in his heart.
After Landa entered the living room, she immediately spotted the gentleman in black hat sitting on the sofa reading a book. The smile on his face was a little stiff, but he still mustered up the courage to walk up.
Before he spoke, the gentleman said without raising his head:
"Please take a seat, Your Majesty Landa."
"Ahem, thank you..."
Landa coughed awkwardly and then sat down on the sofa obediently.
His beautiful eyes moved, staring closely at the black hat gentleman, and then after some wording, he said carefully:
"Master Jack, I am here to sincerely apologize to you." (End of Chapter)
