Chapter 650 -429: Secrets Underground
Soon, two female guards escorted Chen Lun out.
He was to take a bath, after which he would be arranged to stay at Lady Orianna’s residence, where he would wait for her to “taste.”
Chen Lun did not resist; he obediently accepted the arrangement.
A moment later.
“Go in, you can rest inside for a while, but you mustn’t come out at will. If you need anything, call us.”
The female guard stood in front of a relatively clean and tidy house and turned to speak to Chen Lun.
Chen Lun had now changed his attire; his original black hat and clothes were replaced with a coarse linen robe. His slightly long, slightly curly black hair casually fell down, complemented by his perfect face and figure, instantly transforming him from a gentleman of the civilized world into a “fallen angel.”
He merely nodded and pushed the door to enter.
The two female guards reluctantly shifted their gaze away from his retreating figure, standing anxiously at the door. They exchanged glances, seeing in each other’s faces a mixture of desire and timidity.
Such a top-quality man, they had never seen before.
But they were very aware of their place; with their lowly status, it was impossible for them to enjoy him… He was a man only someone like Grand Lord Orianna deserved.
Chen Lun entered the room and surveyed the simple furnishings silently. There was only a bed, a table, and two chairs, lacking any excessive decorations. Even the blanket on the bed was just a piece of fur from an unknown animal.
Yet, he lay down without disdain and began to ponder.
After entering the Land of Matthaios, throughout his journey, he had noticed a peculiar phenomenon, which was that the timekeeping here was the opposite of that on the surface.
He had clearly descended into the underground in the deep night of the surface world, yet here it was daytime.
‘Perhaps this has something to do with that dark red sphere in the dome above. It dims and brightens with time, repeating cyclically… The Red Mother? What exactly is that? Could it be a miracle or a spectacle?’ Chen Lun thought.
He shook his head, recalling his recent meeting with the two ladies.
Through Peek Life, he learned that the lord of this settlement, Lady Kremo, was a Mid Sequence Transcendent of the Moon Faction [Sequence Six – Nightwalker]. And the lady from the large settlement “Thorn Settlement,” Lady Orianna, was a [Sequence Five – Black Knight].
‘”Mermaid’s Song” might not be sufficient to hypnotize a Sequence Five Transcendent, but with my own abilities, even if it’s impossible, faced with an attack from this settlement, I can still easily escape…’
Chen Lun was prepared for the worst-case scenario: to capture Lady Orianna, coerce the information he wanted from her, and then escape from here.
He lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and utilized the “Fleurette Meditation Technique” to clear his mind for a brief rest.
Two hours and eighteen minutes later.
Chen Lun sensed faint footsteps approaching the door.
“That’s enough, you can all go rest now. There’s no need for guards here.”
Lady Orianna’s voice faintly came from outside the door.
“Yes, Lady Orianna, and have a wonderful night,” the female guard responded respectfully, soon followed by the sound of footsteps leaving.
The door creaked.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
The simple wooden door was pushed open from the outside, and the next second, it was slowly closed.
Chen Lun opened his eyes and sat up on the bed.
He saw Lady Orianna standing by the table, her back to him, slowly removing her outer garments, revealing her smooth, fair shoulders and back, her curvaceous figure clearly visible.
Chen Lun, expressionless, was just about to cast “Mental Steal” on her, but Orianna, without turning around, suddenly spoke:
“Do you know a man named Bales Wolf?”
Chen Lun was initially startled, then slightly furrowed his brows, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.
‘How does this grand lord of the Land of Matthaios know Mr. Bales… Hmm? Could it be that Mr. Bales had come here before and had some contact with this woman?’ he reasoned in his mind.
Anliana changed into a lighter, more comfortable cotton and linen robe, turned around, and regarded Chen Lun with a half-smiling gaze, her lips curving slightly.
“Your name is Jack, right? I knew from the first moment I saw you that you came from the surface… After all, in the Land of Matthaios, only women are tainted and wield Supernatural Power; men are merely ordinary. But you are different; I can sense a mysterious aura about you, and it’s not a low Sequence,” she said, sitting on a chair, her chin supported by her palm, her eyes dreamily continued:
“And most importantly, your demeanor resembles that of a man I once met, the kind of calm and confidence only a man from the surface would possess.”
Chen Lun was somewhat surprised but remained unruffled.
He looked at her silently for a moment, then spoke softly:
“Yes, I know Mr. Bales; he is my mentor, and in a way, part of my family.”
Orianna’s eyes lit up instantly.
She did not expect her tentative inquiry to yield results.
“Where is he?”
Orianna’s gaze became urgent.
From her unguarded reaction, Chen Lun perceived genuine emotion: a mix of anticipation, longing, and a trace of admiration.
He couldn’t help but imagine an unrequited love scenario playing out in his mind.
