I Became the King of Villains In the Game - Chapter 404
Chapter 404 White Gull Travel Agency
Pearl Bamogo spent five days in Anastasia Harbor for maintenance before sailing again.
There were no accidents on the way this time, so after more than ten days, on February 21st, I finally arrived at Orange Harbor.
There are still two stations ahead, and they will arrive at the harbor of the Royal City Tourmaline Kloster, but Chen Lun intends to disembark here to complete the mission of delivering the letter.
“Froy, you just stay on the boat, and I will go over to meet you at that time, and then enter the royal city together.”
Chen Lun stood in front of the gangway, turned and said to the circus cadres.
“Ok.”
Floy nodded obediently.
“Please pay attention to safety on the road.”
“Will do.”
Chen Lun stepped forward with a smile, and hugged Floyd gently.
But at this moment, Noah on the side suddenly spoke:
“Mr. Jack, can you take me with you… Your trip will pass through the Coleridge Forest and the Augusta Mountains. I heard that there are many rare natural wonders there. I want to go and see them by the way. Some sketching.”
He scratched the back of his head sheepishly.
“You know, I’m good at drawing portraits, but not so proficient in depicting landscapes and scenes. I want to take this opportunity to hone my painting skills.”
Chen Lun thought about it, and felt that it didn’t matter if he brought Noah.
However, the cow Antonio on the side suddenly spoke:
”Anton also wants to go on the road with Mr. Jack. Anton wants to go for a walk in the forest and breathe the real natural air… The sea is too bad, and the city is too bad. Anton hates it very much!”
Chen Lun chuckled, and nodded to Noah and Anton.
“In this case, you two follow me.”
One person and one cow seemed very happy, and Noah even dragged out the prepared painting bag and suitcase. Chen Lun saw that he had brought the two of them with him, so he simply asked Maggie:
“Maggie, do you want to go with me? I remember that the Natural Sect is in the Coleridge Forest…”
“No, Captain.”
Maggie shook her head.
“I don’t want to see some acquaintances again, so as not to be embarrassed… And now that I have become a [vaccinator], I have completely become heresy in their eyes, and I will add trouble to you at that time.”
Seeing Maggie’s refusal, Chen Lun didn’t force her either.
After explaining a few more words to everyone in the circus, he took Noah and Anton down the gangway.
In fact, the two sides did not cut off contact because the circus cadres have his “pale mark” on them, and they can perceive and communicate at any time… Moreover, Chen Lun also left his own fraudulent avatar on board, so he can well manage the overall situation.
After getting off the boat, Chen Lun set off from Orange Red Bay with one person and one cow, and walked towards the city center.
Because Anton was with him, it was not easy to take a carriage, so he simply chose to walk.
The scale of Maple Leaf City is quite large, larger than the cities that Chen Lun has stayed in the past. To the north, there are three small town areas, among which the town of Olivares is the closest to the Great Forest of Coleridge, which is the gateway to the forest. must pass through.
It’s afternoon.
Chen Lun just passed through Maple Leaf City and came to the small town of Olivares.
Two people and one cow standing on the side of the road have attracted the attention of many locals… After all, the population of this small town has always remained at around 1,000 people, and any new faces will attract the attention of local residents.
Especially Chen Lun and Noah’s well-dressed clothes and a cow, such a combination is quite strange. Many old people in the small town of Olivares stared at Chen Lun and the others with strange xenophobic eyes, and almost wrote “Damn foreigners, get out of here” on their faces.
Chen Lun ignored the strange gazes of the passers-by on the street. He looked up and saw that in the distance of the buildings, there were endless mountains and green forests.
The town is surrounded by forests and mountains, and there is no end in sight.
This place is like an original ecological settlement. The residents living here probably seldom go out, and they have thrived here for generations.
Chen Lun narrowed his eyes slightly.
He felt an intuition from the Coleridge Forest in front of him, that is, “Cloud Leap” might not be convenient to use… There seemed to be some strange things hidden in the forest, which would interfere with space-type supernatural abilities. If you take a hasty leap, you may get lost halfway.
He thought about it, and just to be on the safe side, he gave up the idea of directly taking Noah and Anton to the cloud.
“Let’s go, let’s go eat something first, and get some information by the way… The locals should know something about the Coleridge Forest, and maybe we can get something valuable from them.”
Chen Lun said to Noah and Anton.
“Okay, Mr. Jack, I happen to be a little hungry too.”
Noah smiled.
Antonio said that it doesn’t matter, it is more resistant to hunger, and it can enter the big forest later, and then look for some plant grass to eat on the spot.
So Chen Lun found a restaurant with a slightly more upscale decoration along the way, opened the door and walked in.
“Sir, uh, how many of you…?”
A waiter wearing a dark blue vest stood at the door and asked quickly when he saw a customer coming.
It’s just that his eyes looked at the cow next to Noah a few more times, and he didn’t know what the two gentlemen meant by bringing a cow.
“Three, just help us find a vacant seat in the lobby.”
Chen Lun casually took out two silver medals and handed them to the waiter.
“Ah, of course! Come with me, sir!”
Tips for two Silver Jubilees are not a small amount in such a small town. The waiter was extremely happy and his attitude was even more enthusiastic.
He has completely ignored the existence of the cow at this moment, leading the way respectfully.
Soon, Chen Lunuoya and Anton were led to the east corner of the lobby on the first floor.
“This is enough for two… three sit down, well, this is the menu, what do you want?”
The waiter took out a menu and handed it to Chen Lun.
Chen Lun glanced at it casually. The dishes above are all seasonal foods, and there are also signature dishes unique to this restaurant, but the prices are relatively affordable, even the most expensive “baked steak with foie gras with white truffle” Only four silver nobility and thirty copper croiss are needed.
He ordered a signature steak for himself, plus a pasta and tea, and handed the menu to Noah. While Noah was ordering, Chen Lun turned his head and glanced at the other diners in the hall at the moment.
At a nearby table, five young people attracted his attention.
They were three men and two women, all carrying huge travel backpacks, like students coming out to play.
“Hey, Grey, we’ll be leaving soon after we finish eating, hope we can get something today.”
A brown-haired young man stuffed a mouthful of noodles into his mouth, and said vaguely to the female companion in front of him.
“Go in like this? Oslo, I have to say it’s a terrible idea… We don’t know what’s in there, it’s too dangerous, let alone…”
Grey, the red-haired girl, lowered her voice, but Chen Lun’s hearing was extraordinary, and he heard her clearly:
“The location marked on the treasure map is in the depths of the Coleridge Forest. How could we get there today…”
“It doesn’t matter, we can find a travel agency right here. It would be much better to have a guide take us in and avoid trouble.”
At this time, another girl with short hair and glasses spoke.
She elegantly ate the vegetable salad and adjusted her glasses.
“Isn’t the Great Coleridge Forest a restricted area for the empire? Will there be a travel agency that dares to bring people in?”
A tall boy with dark skin and an afro asked in a deep voice.
The woman in glasses glanced at him strangely, and explained:
“Why is there no one doing rich business? Although the empire strictly forbids ordinary people from trespassing in the Coleridge Forest, it can’t stop such a vast area… I asked before I came, and in this Olivares In a small town, there are guides who specialize in business, this is not unusual…”
The last short boy took out a notebook and added to the other companions:
“Mesia is right. In addition to the thrill-seeking travelers in the forest, there are actually quite a few local hunters who go into it every day to hunt… The Coleridge Forest feeds these hunters, and there are even a few Some foreign poachers will go in and kill rare animals, bring out their teeth and fur, and sell them at high prices in big cities such as Wangcheng.”
“It seems that you have done enough homework in advance, so I am relieved.”
The boy who spoke first, Oslo, laughed, causing the other four to roll their eyes.
Chen Lun quietly eavesdropped on the conversation of the five young people, and roughly understood their identities.
This is a group of college students from Morning Glory College in a neighboring city. They came to Maple Leaf City during their vacation and wanted to enter the Coleridge Forest to hunt for treasure… The treasure hunt map was accidentally obtained during a field trip.
Besides Grey, Oslo, and Mesia, the tall, dark-skinned boys are called Stiller, and the short boys are called Arnell.
The five of them came together, and after preparing meals, they went to a famous local travel agency for help.
Chen Lun wrote down the name of the travel agency and planned to check the situation later.
At this time, the waiter had already brought up the food. Chen Lun called Noah to start, and immediately turned his attention to the guests at the other tables in the hall.
Most of the people who come here to eat are locals. While they are eating, they will chat about some strange things that happened in the town recently… It is said that the cannibals in the big forest have reappeared. Many neighbors have gone into the big forest and disappeared. It is said that the hunter of which family brought back strange edible plants from the big forest, but the hunter’s family was admitted to the hospital the next day and did not live for two days.
Chen Lun feels that even though these local residents have lived here for dozens or hundreds of years, they still have a strong sense of strangeness to the Coleridge Forest… Maybe because it is so big that these ordinary people can’t explore it in their entire lives.
The meal is over.
Chen Lun took Noah and Anton out of the restaurant, and the five young students had already left.
“Mr. Jack, what shall we do next?”
Noah asked.
“During the meal just now, the guests at the table next to me gave me some inspiration. Maybe we can use the power of the travel agency to get acquainted with the environment of the Coleridge Forest… After all, if we want to travel through the forest to reach the Augusta Mountains, this It’s not that simple, and I don’t know the exact location of the Meteor Tower.”
Chen Lun thought for a while and said.
Noah nodded to express his understanding.
“Let’s go, the ‘White Gull Travel Agency’ should be at the corner at the end of the next street.”
Chen Lun chuckled, and walked forward with one person and one cow.
After a while, they arrived at their destination.
“White Gull Travel Agency” is not big, even slightly smaller than the restaurant just now. In addition to the name, the signboard also has an icon of a white gull flying with wings spread.
Pushing the door and entering, what greets the eye is a stuffed white gull hanging on the wall. The boss is standing behind the front desk, having a heated discussion with three people.
In addition to the group of five students, there was a couple and three men in peaked caps and dark jackets.
The boss looks very young, even very young… A girl who only looks like sixteen or seventeen years old, with golden double ponytails tied on her head, but her demeanor is old-fashioned.
“Believe me, even if you search the town of Olivares for this price, you won’t find another one!”
The boss patted the price book in front of him and said confidently.
The three men had no objection, and happily took out three gold pounds and put them on the front desk. The couple also looked rich, and paid the tour guide fee without hesitation.
It’s just that the five students were still bargaining, but in the end they couldn’t match the strength of the young female boss, and finally paid a fee of one gold pound per head. However, seeing the pained expressions on the students’ faces, one knew that most of the money was already their savings.
The female boss with golden double ponytails counted the gold coins with a happy smile, and then raised her head to look at the door.
Her gaze wandered from the cow and the boy with glasses to Chen Lun, and her eyes lit up.
“Hey, business is really good today… Welcome, gentlemen, are you interested in traveling into the Coleridge Forest? It only takes a gold pound, and I guarantee that you will get a good value for money. Bring back some special souvenirs!”
Chen Lun stepped forward, pretending to look at the interior decoration of the travel agency, glanced at old photos and cheap souvenirs, and said:
“What’s your travel route like? Take a walk around? Or go deep into the forest…”
“Of course not too deep. The innermost part of the Coleridge Forest is still very dangerous. Even the bravest local hunters will only circle around the periphery…”
The female boss with the golden ponytail frowned.
“However, if you have special requirements, I can also consider it as appropriate, but I also need to be responsible for your safety, so when the time comes, we will still be the guides of our travel agency.”
Chen Lun glanced at her.
“I don’t need your travel agency to accompany me all the time, but when I reach a place where I can’t go deep, I need you to guide me in the right direction…My destination is the Augusta Mountains.”
“Why are you going there? It’s dangerous!”
The female boss with the golden ponytail frowned, looking up and down at Chen Lun and Noah, and even the cow behind them.
“Fifty gold pounds.”
Chen Lun said lightly.
The female boss stopped asking any more questions, just smiled, patted the table and said:
“it is good!”
Chen Lun took out fifty gold coins directly from the panel, put them in a small money bag, and handed them over.
The female boss’s eyes were shining, she buckled her purse and slipped into the back room. Before going in, she asked everyone to wait for a while, saying that the tour guide would be there soon.
About ten minutes later.
The door of the inner room opened again, and a beautifully dressed girl with a pink beret came out with her luggage on her back.
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
Everyone looked at the tour guide with strange expressions, the pair of golden twin ponytails were quite dazzling.
The husband of the couple said hesitantly:
“Aren’t you the boss here?”
“Huh? I forgot to introduce myself… My name is Lutina Castillo, and I’m the tour guide of Baiou Travel Agency… a part-time boss.”
The blond girl with twin ponytails straightened her beret and smiled.
