I became the king of villains in the game

Chapter 405 Into the Forest
"Miss Lutina, well, it might be impolite to ask such a question, but it's about our safety after all..."

The wife of the couple looked worried and questioning.

She said to the owner of the travel agency with golden twintails:

"May I ask if you have ever actually entered Coleridge's Great Forest? You look only 16 years old... My sun, this is crazy, an underage guide? Won't take us in In the mouth of the beast?"

"Ma'am, I admit that my appearance is deceiving. I will take what you just said as a compliment... But I hereby declare that I am 20 years old and have grown up in this small town. No one Know more about the situation in the forest than I do, okay?"

Lutina lifted her backpack, rolled her eyes and said.

She walked to the back of the counter on her own, bent down and took out a one-meter-long double-barreled shotgun from a mezzanine, and immediately opened the gun body with a click to check the status of the ammunition.

Noticing that there were two round red shotguns quietly stuck in the chamber, Lutina smiled slightly and ricocheted the gun body.She rummaged around the counter for a while, took two boxes of ammunition and randomly threw them into the backpack.

"Okay, let's go. If you have any objections, you can leave now...but I won't refund the money you just paid."

Rutina carried the double-barreled shotgun on her shoulders, supported her beret and walked ahead.

Among the five students, the boy named Oslo took a step forward and was about to say something, but Lutina pointed a gun at his head and was stunned on the spot.

"I said, the money will not be refunded."

Lutina said with a smile.

"Ah... no, you misunderstood, Miss Lutina, I just want to ask, are there really cannibals in the forest? There are also strange animals and plants that actively hunt humans? I heard that the guests in the restaurant are So..."

Oslo was shocked, and quickly swallowed the words that came to his lips, and changed his rhetoric.

"Don't ask, there will be no surprises if you ask."

Lutina retracted the muzzle of the gun, and gave a meaningful look at the students.

Oslo was devastated, but he didn't dare to get angry. He retreated to the student team with a resentful expression on his face.

Without saying a word, Chen Lun silently led Noah and Anton to the back of the team, and walked towards the entrance of the big forest together.

Along the way, except for the three men who were taciturn, the couple talked about their wedding with great interest. This adventure in the forest is their honeymoon trip. Lutina teased that people in the city really know how to play , and also advised the couple not to do some too intimate things at night, lest there be accidents and it would be too late to escape.

These words made the couple a little embarrassed, and the other five students also exchanged something in a low voice, with a look of uneasiness.

Chen Lun calmly scanned all the people present with his spy, and found that they were all ordinary people.However, the leading guide, Lutina, was a little strange, because there was a missing piece in her fate.

The missing part is like a starting point and an ending point, making Chen Lun unable to see her past and future clearly.

This can't help but make him have some doubts in his heart, and he has raised a little vigilance.

'This Lutina should be hiding some secrets. '

Chen Lun thought to himself.

He turned his attention to the three unsmiling men again. Although they didn't speak, they kept making eye contact, and their micro expressions couldn't escape Chen Lun's eyes.

Some details show that they also have some ulterior secrets.

Since they were just ordinary people, Chen Lun didn't bother to continue to observe, and directly used [Thought Stealing] to probe their thoughts.

[You cast the skill "Mind Stealing" on the target Ivan! 】

【The judgment is in effect...】

[Your will is 82 points, the target will is 9 points, the judgment is successful! 】

[You cast the skill "Mind Stealing" on the target Dael...]

A few seconds later, he frowned and smiled.

The three men didn't notice anything, but they didn't know that the secrets in their minds had been fully exposed, and Chen Lun had touched them thoroughly.

'It turned out that three gangsters... went into the forest to seek revenge?Someone embezzled their money and goods and fled into the big forest. These three unlucky guys were pushed out by the gang to find someone. '

Chen Lun shook his head secretly, and said with emotion that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

Soon, everyone followed Lutina to an uninhabited area, where there were no commercial buildings like those in the small town, only scattered abandoned farmhouses and huts.

A large stretch of huge barbed wire fences appeared in front of them, connected by iron pipes every seven or eight meters, separating the Coleridge Forest from human society.

Moreover, in the northeast corner, there are two sentry posts, which seem to be guarded by special personnel to prevent people from destroying the barbed wire fence without permission and entering the interior of the forest.

"Attention! The Great Forest of Coleridge, a restricted area ahead of the Empire! No matter who you are, stop immediately, turn around and return... There are only two warnings here, and those who don't listen to dissuasion will be killed immediately!"

A loudspeaker came out of the sentry post. It was the voice of a middle-aged man.

Everyone stopped immediately and looked at Lutina in surprise.

"You wait here, and come back later after watching my gestures."

Lutina turned around and said to everyone with a normal face.

Immediately, she carried a double-barreled shotgun and walked towards the sentry post with a backpack on her back.

Along the way, everyone stared at her, for fear that the guards at the sentry would suddenly shoot and kill her.

"She doesn't put down the gun in her hand, isn't she really afraid of death?"

The afro boy Stiller said in surprise.

The short boy beside him, Anel, shook his head, took out a candy and stuffed it into his mouth, and said while eating:

"It's so obvious that you didn't see it? The female boss of Baiou Travel Agency must know people here, otherwise how could she bring people in..."

As Anel said, everyone saw that Lutina walked to the window of the sentry post without incident, chatted with the people inside, and handed over several gold pounds.

Afterwards, she turned to look at the crowd, waved her hand, and signaled that everyone could go over.

A few students still hesitated, but the couple took the lead holding hands and took a step forward.The three men in peaked caps followed closely behind, and Chen Lun also followed Noah and Anton calmly.

Finally, the five students looked at each other, mustered up the courage to trot forward.

"Old rules, I just pretend I didn't see you... But no matter what you see and meet inside, even if you die inside, it has nothing to do with me."

As soon as everyone approached the sentry post, they saw a middle-aged man with half-white hair in military uniform open the door and come out.

While speaking indifferently, he took out the key, led Lutina and the others around the back of the sentry post, and unlocked a secret side door under the barbed wire.

Bang!
The wire door creaked and was pushed open by the middle-aged guard, who then stood aside and lit a cigarette by himself.

"Don't be dazed, come in with me."

Lutina thanked the guards, and then took the lead through the narrow wire gate.

Everyone glanced at the middle-aged guard, and immediately filed in.

After everyone entered the barbed wire fence, there was another bang sound behind them, and the wire door was locked.

"Don't worry, he will open the door for us when we come back...Of course, the premise is that you didn't die inside."

Lutina said calmly.

It's just that her last sentence made the five students a little nervous.

"Haha... Do you scare you? You are so timid and dare to take risks in the Coleridge Forest? Since you want to hunt for treasure and make a fortune, you must have enough courage!"

Lutina giggled.

The faces of the five students changed slightly. They didn't expect their secret to be known by the other party.

"Don't think it's a rare treasure map, I've seen more than one or two copies..."

She pointed to the parchment in the hands of the girl with glasses and short hair, Mesia, and said calmly.

Seeing that the faces of the students changed again, Lutina laughed out loud like she was playing tricks.

"Hehehe... You guys are so funny!"

"Miss Lutina!"

The girl Gray frowned slightly.

The faces of several boys were not good-looking, but Mesia, the girl with glasses, asked:

"Have you ever seen other people come to the Great Forest with a treasure map?"

"of course……"

Lutina shrugged, and she took out a kooki knife, and split the bushes ahead to make a way.

"The 'Golden Tree', 'Gem Lake' and 'Fruit of Life'... In short, many things like this that only exist in fairy tales have been recorded on the so-called treasure map and passed on."

"Then you mean that there is no such treasure in Coleridge Forest?"

The boy Anel asked in a deep voice.

Lutina chopped off the wooden bar with a single knife, rubbed her arms tiredly, turned her head while flicking her golden twin ponytails, and gave Anel a blank look.

"I didn't say that... The Great Coleridge Forest is very vast. Even if I've lived here for so long, I still don't know how many secrets it still has. Maybe those things really exist?"

"It seems that the treasure hunters you led before didn't find the treasure...otherwise you wouldn't say that."

Messiah said with some disappointment.

The other four students also realized this and sighed.

On the contrary, the three men in peaked caps looked at each other, communicated with each other, and gestured indistinctly. They didn't know what they were planning.

Everyone followed Lutina's footsteps and gradually went deep into the Coleridge Forest.

It was okay at first, just an ordinary forest scene.

But as they walked, everyone felt something strange.

First of all, the singing of birds and insects was cut off, and the surroundings were completely silent. Secondly, the trees gradually became taller, and the sky could not even be seen when looking up.There is a thick pile of fallen leaves and mud under the feet, and no one knows whether the next step will encounter a poisonous snake.

This environment made everyone feel very depressed, and no one was willing to speak out for a long time.

On the contrary, the more Chen Lun looked at it, the more he felt that the environment in the forest was very similar to the natural forest in Wonderland.

After walking for more than an hour, everyone felt very tired.

And the line of sight in front became wider, and a small wooden house appeared in everyone's eyes.

"Let's take a rest here first. This hunter's lodge is mine. After eating something, I will take you to the first 'attraction'."

Lutina led the way into the wooden house, and then took out some wooden bowls and handed them to everyone.

She picked up some dead branches and leaves, lit a fire on the bonfire outside the wooden house, and boiled a pot of water.

"You can walk around, but don't go too far, so as not to get lost."

Lutina sat on a stone pier, adding wood to the fire, and said to everyone.

The five students were ready to move after hearing this, because the target location was not far from here on the treasure map in their hands.

"Then let's go for a walk, Miss Lutina."

The boy Oslo greeted Rutina, who waved her hand indifferently.

After several people left impatiently, a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes, which was caught by Chen Lun.

'Looks like she knows something...'

Chen Lun thought to himself.

At this time, the three men in peaked caps took a sip of hot water and left the cabin. They said they wanted to look for prey around them and eat some meat.

The couple stayed, probably tired, talking in a whisper, while wandering around behind the wooden house holding hands.

Noah walked aside, took out the easel and small bench, and sketched against the wooden house.The cows rushed into the woods like having fun, not knowing whether they were playing or looking for food.

Only Lutina and Chen Lun were left by the campfire.

"That's your brother?"

Lutina raised her head and asked Chen Lun. She pointed to Noah not far away with the dead branch in her hand.

"you can say it this way."

Chen Lun smiled lightly.

"He draws well and is very talented."

Lutina said with great interest.

"Yes, I think so too."

Chen Lun nodded.

But Rutina rubbed her chin and commented old-fashionedly:
"However, it seems that he is relatively unfamiliar with static landscapes, and his technique is similar to that of portrait painting. His teacher must be a rigid old guy, most likely a court painter."

"You seem to know how to draw?"

Chen Lun frowned and put down the wooden bowl.

Lutina shrugged.

"It's a little involved, but I haven't written for a long time."

She looked at Chen Lun and asked curiously:

"You two brothers, what are you going to do with a cow in the Augusta Mountains?"

Chen Lun originally planned to evade a few words, but as he felt more and more that this girl had a secret in his heart, he simply took this opportunity to test it out:
"Delivery."

"Send a letter?"

Lutina was very surprised.

She immediately frowned slightly, as if thinking of something, her eyes flashed with surprise.

On Lutina's fair and delicate face, the nostrils twitched slightly. She looked at Chen Lun curiously, and asked nonchalantly:

"To whom? Is that mountain still inhabited?"

"A friend's teacher."

Chen Lun answered ambiguously.

Now that I have collected all the "Carmen's Letters" and learned his magic, and now I am helping him deliver letters... It is not an exaggeration to say "a friend I have never met".

The shock in Lutina's eyes was even worse.

She coughed twice, nodded her head to show her understanding, and then her eyes shone slightly.

"Okay... by the way, have you ever heard of 'Naturalism'?"

"Ah."

Chen Lun nodded naturally.

"A cult organization was expelled from the territory by the empire."

"Natural sects are not cults."

Lutina's tone was slightly dissatisfied.

"They're just not liked by the Sun King."

She took a deep breath, calmed down, and then asked again:

"Then have you heard of the 'Cat God Cult'?"

"No."

Chen Lun shook his head lightly.

Lutina frowned deeper, she stared at Chen Lun for a few seconds, and finally gritted her teeth and said:

"you're lying!"

"Ok?"

Chen Lun pretended to be surprised.

Lutina didn't seem to want to talk to Chen Lun any more, after giving him a blank look, she fiddled with the bonfire by herself.

But at this moment, exclamations and screams suddenly came from the woods.

Of the five students, only four came back, one girl named Grey was missing, and the remaining four were covered in blood and looked terrified.

"Help... help! Gray was captured by a monster!"
