I Became the King of Villains In the Game - Chapter 454
Chapter 454 One month
“Teacher, thank you for your teaching, I will work hard to practice them.”
Polaris recovered from his excitement and said in a deep voice.
Snapped!
Everyone only heard a snap of their fingers.
Cards flew out of Jack’s hand out of thin air, as if by magic. Amid the continuous clattering sound, dozens of cards flipped and twirled, ejected into the midair of the tent, and began to dance around him again.
Finally, the cards piled up neatly like birds returning to their nests, and landed in Jack’s palm.
“The Western War will continue for a while, you can use this opportunity to hone your combat skills, and gradually become familiar with the ability of [Magician]…”
Chen Lun put the deck of cards in his palm into the hands of Polaris.
“Next, I am looking forward to your performance.”
“is teacher.”
Polaris held the poker tightly and said solemnly.
Although he knew that this was just an extremely ordinary deck of cards, it contained the teacher’s expectations for him.
Polaris takes this expectation very seriously.
At this time, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, a dozen short figures walked in from outside.
They are black cats walking upright, wearing leather armor, carrying a string of tactical pouches around their waists, and even carrying swords that obviously don’t fit their size.
The player couldn’t bear curiosity and lost the search, but what was displayed was a series of unknown horizontal lines, only the bright red name indicated that they were not easy to mess with. The leader is a black cat with a brown leather blindfold on its left eye and a giant ax on its back. It has a name on its head——
【Captain of the Circus Black Cat Warriors-Nada】
I saw the black cats ignoring everyone and came straight to Jack’s desk. Nada, the black cat, bowed to the group leader like a human being, and said:
“Mr. Jack, Ms. Froy and the others have completed the task, let us go back and report to you first.”
“well done.”
Chen Lun nodded and praised him.
Na Da briefly stated what happened. How the circus cadres bypassed the defense of the bridgehead according to the plan, found the underground passage suggested by the group leader in advance, and waited in ambush there, and finally intercepted Anlong’s defeated army.
Some accidents occurred during this process, but Floyd was very alert and easily resolved the trouble.
Following Na Da’s narration, a smile appeared on Chen Lun’s face.
Although he had already secretly observed this through the [Pale Mark], but listening to the process again from the mouth of his subordinates, it was a completely different feeling.
At the same time, the players in the tent showed surprise expressions after hearing these contents. They didn’t expect that the reason why the enemy was defeated so thoroughly in this battle was that Mr. Jack had already arranged it.
“—No wonder I haven’t seen the circus cadres before. It turns out that they have long been hiding in the bridgehead.”
“—I said that it was too coincidental at that time. Anlong’s army had just started to retreat, and we received the task of going to the underground passage to surround the enemy.”
“—As expected of Mr. Jack, I am afraid that he has already divined all of this, or it is the “guidance of fate”? Hahaha…”
Dongyang and others were communicating in the channel, and Su Keying spoke at this time:
“—By the way, have you looked at the game forum? Some players from the Miracle Guild posted some posts sharing their faction’s missions… One of them caused a lot of discussion, saying that a large number of people were actually buried under the bridgehead. Originally, the Anlong army planned to detonate them while they were evacuating, but for some reason, they couldn’t ignite the fuse, and even burning the gunpowder with an open flame at close range didn’t work.”
“—Ah? What else is going on?!”
“—According to this, An Longfang actually saved his hand. Fortunately, the explosives didn’t explode, otherwise the Imperial Army might have suffered heavy losses… Most of us would have to die in the explosion.”
“—Those Anlong’s turtle grandsons are really ruthless…”
“—Hey, since Jack knows where the enemy is retreating, it is impossible for him not to know about the explosives… Do you think he did it because the gunpowder failed to detonate?”
“—Hey! Makes sense! Brother Beizi, you are Jack’s student, just ask, maybe you can trigger some tasks…”
Polaris glanced at the speech in the channel, thoughtful.
There are still a lot of explosives under the bridgehead? !
Does the Imperial Army know about this?
So…
Where is the teacher?
He was silent for a few seconds, and finally decided to ask aloud. If the teacher didn’t know, it could be regarded as a reminder.
“Teacher, I have something to report to you.”
Polaris raised his hand and said like a student asking questions in class.
Chen Lun sat on the chair, turned his gaze to look at him, and immediately said with a smile:
“Speak.”
“It’s about the Hercule bridgehead… We learned some information from other undead strangers through some special channels. Someone found a large number of buried explosives under the bridgehead.”
All the players watched Jack’s expression one after another, trying to find some clues, but to their surprise, Jack just nodded lightly.
The next second, the other party’s eyes swept over everyone, and the pupils seemed to bloom with radioactive patterns, which was fascinating.
The players present received prompts from the panel—
【You are affected by Jack Speight’s ability! 】
Immediately, the scene in the tent in the eyes of the players changed and turned into a terrifying scene… Under the dim and red sunset, the bridgehead standing on the other side of the Benavides River in the distance exploded in a gloomy environment. Countless soldiers were torn to pieces by the flames without even screaming.
Several deafening bangs were heard one after another, and the bridgehead was shrouded in smoke and explosions, turning into a terrifying sea of flames!
Immediately.
Everyone recovered from their trance and found themselves still in the tent. Jack’s voice came slowly:
“Well, according to the original fate line, more than 20,000 soldiers of the Imperial Army will disappear together with the Hercule bridgehead and be destroyed in a terrifying explosion…”
The players looked shocked and looked up to see Jack’s calm face.
“But fate has been changed.”
Although he didn’t say it explicitly, more than a dozen players have heard the subtext from the words…
“—Is it really Jack?! It was he who eliminated the original explosion!”
“—Damn it… So there is such a hidden plot, if Su Keying didn’t mention the forum post, we still don’t know about it.”
“—Do you think there are many major events in these two versions that have been changed by Jack long ago, but we don’t know? Or are there other fate masters hidden in the dark?”
“—Hiss, it’s frightening to think carefully…”
“—Brother Beizi, can you ask me if Jack still accepts students? I can open another account to practice the fate department… As long as I think that I can reverse the world line like Jack in the future, I feel too weird Cool!”
“—Yes, yes, this ability is really tyrannical! I also want to change my job to play the fate system!”
Polaris just rolled his eyes at this, as if he didn’t see it.
Not long after, Jack said to the players:
“Okay, the battle at the bridgehead has just ended, and I’m a little tired, I want to take a rest.”
Everyone heard the subtext, looked at each other, and got up to leave.
After the players left, Chen Lun gave some trivial instructions to the black cats, and Nada took the lead in meowing twice, and responded respectfully.
Until Chen Lun was the only one left in the tent.
“Hoo…”
He let out a breath, leaned back on the chair and rubbed his temples.
The first battle of the Western War finally came to a perfect conclusion. Through the preparation in advance, I reaped a lot of benefits from it…the most important of which is experience points.
Chen Lun opened the panel to check, and immediately smiled.
【Experience: 214W/45W】
‘During this period of time, through the accumulation of reading books, plus the kill rewards in the Battle of Hercule Bridgehead, I have accumulated more than two million experience points…A considerable part of this comes from the efforts of the players, and they can share the experience points when they kill the enemy Give me little experience. ‘
He didn’t hesitate, and directly added the experience value to the main profession [juggling entertainer LV40], raising it by four levels. The remaining 200,000 experience points were not enough to continue to improve, so Chen Lun had no choice but to give up.
【The main occupation level is improved, and you feel that your body has been strengthened, the upper limit of life +200, the upper limit of physical strength +200, the upper limit of sanity +2, the strength +2, the endurance +2, the dexterity +4, and the intelligence +4! 】
【You got 4 skill points and 4 attribute points! 】
Looking at the panel, Chen Lun secretly sighed that upgrading is getting harder and harder.
‘I hope that through the next battle, I can upgrade both [Juggler] and [Inscriber]… Only in this way can the triggering conditions of the promotion task be met. ‘
He shook his head.
the following few days.
Chen Lun led his subordinates and stayed in the bridgehead of Hercule. After being cleaned up, mopped up and repaired by the Imperial Army, it has gradually become brand new.
Perhaps the rear area received the good news from General Vance, and began to send in advance supply troops from the cities on the border of the empire.
Chen Lun secretly speculated that perhaps next, as General Vance said, the imperial army would pass through the bridgehead of Hercule and continuously send troops to the hinterland of the Principality of Aco, which would greatly affect the frontal battlefield.
On this day, he was chatting with Floyd and other subordinates in the temporary residence, when he suddenly received a prompt from the panel—
【Because of what you did in the “Battle of Hercule Bridgehead”, stories of your deeds are circulating in the Fourteenth Army of the Western Expeditionary Army of the Empire…】
【Regional popularity increased by 3 points! Currently 140 points! (Also: 4 points for epic singing)]
“What’s wrong?”
Floy refilled the black tea for him, and asked suspiciously.
Chen Lun came back to his senses, smiled slightly, and shook his head.
“nothing…”
But secretly said in his heart:
‘It’s not far from the 5 points of epic popularity required for promotion…’

The smoke of the western war continues to fill the air.
Although the residents of cities far in the interior of the empire could not see the specific process, there were many dedicated war reporters who went out with the army and recorded many details on the front line.
After being checked by the military’s auditing department, the written news passed through the operation of a media company, printed out of the factory, and sold to every household.
“Imperial Victory!”
“The brilliance of the sun sprinkles the entire continent!”
“Rebellious children will eventually return to their father’s arms!”
“Three hundred and twenty years, the lost territory is back!”
All kinds of exciting headlines are filled in the daily news of various newspapers. Countless nobles and wealthy businessmen in the upper class talked about war in public, and no one would feel disgusted by it. On the contrary, pride and superiority filled the hearts of every citizen of the empire.
Time changed, and it has been nearly a month since Chen Lun went on an expedition with the army.
The imperial army is divided into multiple armies, and it is fully suppressing the United Kingdom of Anlong.
Chen Lun’s Fourteenth Group Army, relying on the Hercule bridgehead, continuously compressed the scope of activities of the Principality of Aco, occupying one town after another.
Through this, he can also get a glimpse of the situation and guess the situation on the other battlefields… The situation of the United Kingdom of Anlong has probably reached a precarious situation.
Perhaps in less than half a month, the opponent will be defeated and surrender.
This was not a fair duel in the first place. Looking at the entire continent, even the three major kingdoms of Beelzebub, Byron, and the capital of Shuoli are only vassals of the Trisur Empire, not to mention Anlong who lives in the cracks. United Kingdom between.
The Trisur Empire is recognized as the strongest country, and it almost unified the mainland four thousand years ago. It is very surprising that Anlong can last for more than a month.
On this day, Chen Lun followed the imperial army, which had increased to more than 50,000 troops, and came to a forest like a primitive place.
This land boundary is already the hinterland of the Principality of Yaco, and another 60 kilometers ahead will reach Nabil Forest Castle, which is the largest city besides the capital of the Principality of Yaco.
“Captain, we have received news from the military that the capital of the Principality of Sherol was breached by the Imperial Army yesterday evening, and they announced their surrender overnight… The Principality of Tsbreba is currently surrounded by four army groups, and I am afraid it will not be able to sustain it.” How long. The other small countries were easily swept away by the imperial army long ago, and now as long as we win, the war should be almost over, right?”
Member Frey raised his wine glass in the carriage and took a sip, then asked Chen Lun respectfully.
“Well… if nothing else, it’s probably like this.”
Chen Lun nodded slightly.
He turned his head and looked out the window. Although this is a forest, the trees are not lush, but rather short and sparse…I don’t know if it’s because of the species or the geographical environment.
Dense soldiers marched silently in sight, followed by countless giant carriages. The animals in the forest seemed to sense the danger, and they didn’t dare to make any calls, and the surroundings were silent.
Recalling the experience during this period, Chen Lun took a sip of milk out of boredom.
He led the team and participated in several large and small battles with the army, but nothing special happened, mainly because he fought against the wind and there was not much he could do.
At most, it is to continuously release some killing missions to players through the panel to encourage them to earn experience points for themselves. The harvest is good, and there are millions of experience points in the account.
Chen Lun poked his head out of the car window and looked ahead.
Passing over the swarming figures of the army, you can only see trees that block your view, and some crooked gravel and dirt roads.
It is now mid-to-late June, the temperature is gradually rising, and the environment is filled with sultry heat.
Through the forest, Chen Lun seemed to see the castle in the distance, and thought to himself:
‘This should be the last battle I can participate in, but it’s probably not that simple…’
The reason why he had such an idea came from the reminder of spiritual intuition and the prediction of last night’s dream divination.
In the dream, a wall of roses bloomed on the forest castle, and bright red flowers bloomed on the corpses of countless soldiers, too beautiful to behold.
‘Behind the United Kingdom of Anlong, there is the support of the Kingdom of Beelzebub…The Rose Royal Family will not sit back and watch them be easily defeated. ‘
Chen Lun’s eyes were deep.
