Chapter 753: Chapter 467: Saint Ascension Quest!_2
Helping teammates while making a little extra money, why not?
Generous Church District.
On the prayer benches of the grand cathedral, were seated more than half of the silhouettes, all of whom were believers coming to worship the "God of Covenant." Initially, Chen Lun had helped Fana Johnston and her husband to capture the treacherous swindler Peter, gaining a lot of reputation. Now, every Sunday, the priest organizes a mass event, bestowing a small amount of "Holy Water" to the believers, which attracted a large number of residents from the Central District and Upper City District.
The reputation and popularity of Generous Church were growing more and more.
Chen Lun was currently sitting in a corner of the prayer bench, not attracting any believer’s attention, except for today’s acting priest, Councilor Frey, who cast a cautious glance at him from the pulpit.
He smiled warmly at the priest, then, leaning on his Silver Staff, he turned and left the church, as his presence was putting a lot of pressure on Frey. After all, he was just stopping by to check in, and since there were no issues, he might as well take a walk outside.
In the spacious and large church, the believers watched the priest with devotion, listening to his teachings, while the young man in the black hat who rose and left through the central aisle stood out sharply; yet, not a single person took notice.
Not until Chen Lun left the church, entering the garden ahead.
At this moment, he casually opened the panel and saw that his assets were increasing rapidly. He knew that this was because the "Spiritual Vision Potion" was selling well, and his Circus players were continuously making exchanges through the statues.
’When I first arrived in the Royal City, I had nearly four hundred thousand Gold Pounds in hand, and now, I’m down to only one hundred and fifty thousand. That was quick... Fortunately, I can recuperate a bit thanks to this opportunity. The cost of a potion is 30 Silver Ducats, and selling it to players for just 1 Gold Pound, which is quite reasonable. The main strategy is to sell more with smaller profit margins...’ he thought to himself.
Immediately after, he scanned other panel data, and Chen Lun’s eyebrows lifted slightly. In the experience points section, it now conspicuously displayed [56W/55W]!
’It seems the players have been quite active in the Immortal Realm these past days... The rewards from the deaths they’ve caused are even more than usual, but it’s just enough to accumulate.’
Chen Lun’s lips curved upwards slightly.
He immediately found a bench to sit on and quietly manipulated the panel, allocating the Experience Points to his Main Occupation [Juggler LV49], leveling it up to max level.
A golden glow that was invisible to others flickered from Chen Lun.
He had finally leveled his Main Occupation to the limit of Sequence Five, and the epic saga degree had also long met the conditions for the Promotion Task, with all preparations ready.
Chen Lun once again took out the book from within the Blood Poem Ring, "The Life of a Performance Master: The Autobiography of Philip," took a deep breath, and slowly opened it.
[You have uncovered the Mythological Knowledge of "Destiny Faction Sequence Four - Juggler"!]
[Upon detection, you meet all the conditions necessary to initiate the Promotion Task.]
[You have triggered the "Saint Ascension Quest: Tugging at the Strands of Destiny"!]
Task Description: After an incredibly long and arduous journey, you have finally accumulated enough experience, Strength, knowledge, and influence to arrive at the final step of your transformation into Myth.
Through past learning and exploration, you have understood what Destiny is and have learned how to observe it, mislead it, dodge it, and even use it. However, you remain merely a stage performer, bound to act out the script written by Destiny.
Now, you wish to transcend your human form and evolve into a Mythical being with the qualification to challenge Destiny... Your first and foremost step, then, is to attempt to alter the actual course of Destiny.
Task Requirement: Successfully alter the significant Destiny of a high-ranking individual.
This time, the Promotion Task was different from before, with only a very brief sentence in the requirement description, but Chen Lun furrowed his brows.
He would have preferred a more complex task with specific descriptions rather than such ambiguity... What if he misunderstood the task, resulting in wasted effort?
’Successfully alter the significant Destiny of a high-ranking individual... What counts as a significant alteration of Destiny? For example, if through conversation, one convinces them to change a plan they were about to execute, does that count...’
Chen Lun closed the book, pondering quietly. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
He sighed, feeling that this approach was risky. The simplest, most direct, and effective method would be matters of life and death, which would definitely meet the requirements of the Promotion Task.
’The most straightforward method is to kill the individual, severing their normal trajectory of survival midway, erasing all their future possibilities, or to save a Saint who is about to die, thereby continuing the subsequent development of Destiny...’
Chen Lun’s eyes were profound.
But while the idea was simple, putting it into action was incredibly difficult.
High-ranking individuals do not fall easily; they all, like cunning fiends, keep their true selves hidden in unknown corners, only operating in the world through their Incarnations.
He closed his eyes and leaned back on the bench, his mind flashing through various targets.
Philip?
He had once promised to help them escape from the Dream Realm, but with his current strength, he was simply not qualified enough to face the Lady of Sighs.
Just remembering the sigh that had sounded behind him when he fled the Dream Realm sent shivers down his spine. Had it not been for the help of a stranger, he might have met with disaster.
In comparison, saving "Old Licker Dog" Mage Carmen seemed more feasible... After all, although the Dark World is dangerous, it is still preferable to the Dream Realm and the Lady of Sighs. Moreover, he had accepted a task commissioned by Lady Fleurette and promised to help her rescue her student Carmen.
