I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 363 - 242 Philip’s Adventures
Chapter 363: Chapter 242 Philip’s Adventures
“Has Polaris been taken care of yet…”
Chen Lun was sitting on the sofa in the living room of the villa, sipping milk, and focusing his attention on the Immortal Realm.
He was observing the fifty players by the lakeside cabin from a bird’s-eye view.
‘The maximum number of players I used to be able to accommodate was only ten, but after my ascension to the Mid Sequence, this limit has been raised… I can now maintain fifty people in the Immortal Realm at the same time.’
Chen Lun pondered.
‘The number is still too small, but there’s no helping it… I can only wait for my Sequence to rise further, then the Immortal Realm can accommodate more players.’
...
His attention then shifted to the Maggie Statue by Gazing Lake, sensing the Sanity Value stored within it, which was increasing rapidly at the rate of 48 points per minute.
The reason it wasn’t 50 points was that maintaining the Immortal Realm also consumed Sanity Value.
After such a long time of exploration, Chen Lun had discovered some patterns in this mechanism. If there were no living people in the Immortal Realm, it would actually be in a self “evolving” process, but it would not consume any Sanity.
However, as soon as people are present in the Immortal Realm, whether or not they interact with the environment, it will consume the stored Sanity Value.
And this consumption wasn’t based on an increase in the number of people, but on the “active” area. In other words, these fifty players concentrated in the lakeside cabin area only “activated” that region, so the consumption was minimal, only needing 2 points per minute of Sanity.
If a player entered the Forest of Nature or Kazt Town, then this consumption would become 4 to 6 points per minute.
Overall, Chen Lun was very satisfied with the current situation.
‘Based on the current circumstances, I will be able to get thousands of Sanity Points from these players today…’
At this moment, Chen Lun suddenly noticed something and uttered a small sound of surprise.
He turned his gaze elsewhere, but his expression quickly darkened.
He saw players leaving and arriving in the lakeside cabin area, coming and going, enjoying themselves immensely.
Some were PK-ing in the fight zone on the lawn, others sat on the ground chatting and laughing. Dongyang and others were gathered around the Jack Statue, exchanging various items.
But a few bold female players were getting handsy with the Jack Statue.
Especially Su Keying and her bestie Wei Yin, who positioned themselves on either side of the statue in a pincer move.
Su Keying poked around the statue’s face and even tentatively placed her hand on its chest as if to measure the size of the muscles.
Wei Yin slapped the statue’s buttocks forcefully, giggling with each smack and muttering odd phrases like “plaything” and “your male god.”
Dongyang and the others showed a disgusted expression and quickly stepped a few paces away.
Chen Lun sighed inwardly, placing his hand on his forehead.
‘I was really too naive… I actually thought players would revere this statue; these people are just unabashed jesters.’
The original purpose of having Connie commission a statue wasn’t just to create a medium for issuing quests and exchanging items, but also to indulge in a little wishful thinking—wanting players to look up to his own image whenever they entered the lakeside cabin.
But now it seemed the outcome was a bit off track.
‘Forget it… Let’s just think of it as providing them with a photo spot. Taking pictures and messing with the statue can be considered as increasing team cohesion.’
Chen Lun shook his head, consoling himself.
He continued to observe this “Mission Hall” he had created.
Whether it was Howard’s incarnation being so impressive, being erased by Oscar, and its strength fully absorbed by the Wake of Insects bookmark, “Philip’s Dreamland Adventure” had become more closely linked with the bookmark.
As players made purchases at the statue, Chen Lun was able to get those currencies in real-time.
‘Huh…?’
He noticed that the “Black Crystal Series consumables,” which he had left in the Jack Statue’s exchange catalog, were all sold out.
‘It seems these things are quite popular.’
Chen Lun nodded to himself in approval.
Lakeside cabin.
Wei Yin wrapped her arms around “Mr. Jack’s” neck from behind, leaning on his cheek, posed with a peace sign, and made a funny face.
“Keying, did you get the screenshot?”
“Yeah, yeah… I’ve taken them all. I’ll do some post-editing offline, and then share it with the other beauties in the group.”
Su Keying laughed with a “no problem” gesture.
Wei Yin reluctantly let go of “Mr. Jack.”
“These ‘Black Crystal Bullets’ are new products from the Circus; they feel very effective, and the firepower of the firearm has increased by more than just a notch.”
Dongyang said, inserting a black crystal-embedded ball into the firearm.
He then aimed at a large tree not far away and pulled the trigger.
Bang!

Sizz—
A fan-shaped red-black muzzle flash spurted out, blasting a big hole in the tree, leaving scorch marks on the trunk.
Faintly, one could hear the squeal of electric arcs sizzling.
“Hiss… This power could match us using supernatural power, right? A normal Low Sequence Transcendent getting hit by this might have a hard time,” remarked Doghead Gold, examining the tree, clearly impressed.
Soon, the tree’s wounds healed in a matter of breaths, but Dongyang and the others’ testing purpose had been achieved.
