I became the king of villains in the game

He conducted a simple investigation near "Forest No. [-]", and found that the area was more dangerous, and there were "lumberjacks" wandering around.

These polluting creatures are very difficult to deal with, and Chen Lun doesn't want to waste time on them.

In addition, Chen Lun found that with the main entrance of "Forest No. [-]" as the direction mark, its left, right and back, three directions lead to three new areas respectively.

Chen Lun plans to explore slowly in the future...

Chapter 156 Plague Legend

Two days later.

Chen Lun once again received an invitation from the owner of the Foil Fighting Club, the "Black Knight" Byers.

But before he went to the club, he planned to go to another place first.

Chen Lun was curious about the black anti-epidemic medicine he saw in the bar a few days ago.Based on the address mentioned by the old man, he planned to come to the door to find out who was pretending to be his believer and doing things for profit.

So after lunch, Chen Lun took a carriage to a certain block on the west side of the inner city.

Although it is relatively close to Lorna Port, the surrounding roads have been in disrepair for a long time and are not smooth, resulting in a small flow of people and poor shops.

A herbal shop called "Robert and Jones" opened just down the street.

This herbal shop is small in size, about the same as an ordinary coffee shop.The doors of the adjacent shops on the left and right were all closed, and it seemed that no one rented them out for business.

As soon as Chen Lun lifted the curtain of the carriage, he saw a middle-aged man with the appearance of a butler, walking out of the herbal medicine room with a paper bag in his hand, and then got into the carriage and drove away.

"Well... it should be here."

Chen Lun groaned.

After getting out of the carriage, he went straight into the herbal medicine shop.

Push open the wooden door.

jingle……

After Chen Lun entered the store, he first smelled a very strong herbal smell.The smell is very complicated, neither smelly nor fragrant. In short, it reminded Chen Lun of some bad memories from his previous life.

Because of hereditary diseases, I and my sister also tried to find various "miracle doctors" and took all kinds of disgusting soups.

The experience of those days was really like a nightmare.

Chen Lun shook his head slightly.

"Oh, good day sir, what do you need?"

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a brown leather apron came out from the inner door with a smile on his tired face.

He wore a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, but the lenses were stained with some strange black liquid, making them look a bit dirty.

"I heard that you can buy 'special anti-epidemic medicine' from you?"

Chen Lun was holding a silver cane, showing a faint smile.

He deliberately emphasized on the "special effects", wanting to see what the other party's reaction would be.

"Oh no, sir, there is no 'special anti-epidemic medicine' here..."

The middle-aged man's smile was slightly bitter.

"It's just a herbal candy that my wife and I developed together. It does have a certain anti-epidemic effect, but it's not at the level of 'special effect'... If you need it, you can buy some and try it."

"Oh? Well... In that case, why don't you get some for me. The disease is spreading outside the city recently, which is worrying."

Chen Lun nodded, pretending to be disappointed.

The middle-aged man responded happily, and immediately walked into the back room, and after a while, he came out with a small paper bag.

"Sir, this is 'anti-epidemic candy', please feel free to eat it, it is mainly made of brown sugar, ginger and herbs... Take a small amount every day, it can make the body warm and resist severe cold and disease."

【Drugs-anti-epidemic candies】

Item description: The anti-epidemic drug jointly developed by the herbalist Robert and his wife Jones, contains brown sugar, ginger and nineteen kinds of herbs, which can effectively prevent cold and blast.

Taking a small amount each time can slightly increase resistance to poison, cold and plague.

"how much is it?"

Chen Lun took it and asked casually.

"Only need 2 silver nobility, sir."

The man let out a sigh of relief, and smiled lightly.

Chen Lun nodded secretly.

The effect of this medicine is good, and the price is not expensive in the inner city, even for those rich people, it is quite cheap.

Chen Lun took out two silver coins and put them in his palm, and the other party thanked him.

At this time, Chen Lun asked again:

"Are you followers of the 'Black Messenger'?"

The man's face changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.

"Yes, we are His followers."

Chen Lun could feel the panic of the other party at that moment, and knew it was a lie.

But he didn't expose the man directly, but continued:

"This is really awesome, I also believe in the 'Black Messenger', he is the angel of the 'Outlander God', the guardian of amber..."

Chen Lun's tone was very solemn and serious, and after he finished speaking, he made up a gesture of praise——

Putting his index and middle fingers together, he drew a circle counterclockwise between his eyebrows.

"Praise the blackness of a foreign land."

The middle-aged man looked at him, dazed.

Immediately, he came back to his senses, smiled, followed up with the same salute, and said:

"Praise the blackness of a foreign land."

Chen Lun looked at the man silently without saying a word.

The latter was shocked suddenly, not knowing what happened.I was still secretly guessing in my heart, if I didn't do something well, let the black-haired young man realize that he was not a follower of the "Black Messenger".

"First, sir...?"

"I saw the sign for the herbal shop. . . . Mr. Robert, didn't you? And your wife, Jones?"

Chen Lun spoke.

"Uh yes, Robert Corey... my wife Jones is brewing medicine in there."

Robert wiped his sweat.

He felt really hard, how sweaty he was in this winter.

Chen Lun nodded with a smile.

"Mr. Robert, since you are all followers of the 'Black Messenger', can you let me go in and take a look?"

"This one……"

Robert hesitated.

Chen Lun folded his hands on the silver cane, and was planning to use [Siren's Song] to hypnotize.

"Sir, well, all right."

Robert struggled for a few seconds, and finally nodded in agreement.

"follow me."

He turned around and led the way into the back room.

Chen Lun followed him silently and walked in.

Passing through two rows of wooden shelves with all kinds of dried herbs and some bottles and jars, the two came to the courtyard.

A middle-aged woman with crow's feet at the corners of her eyes was holding a wooden stick in both hands beside a clay pot baking on a fire grill, and was stirring it.

A very strong sweet aroma, mixed with complex ginger and herbal flavors, spreads.

"Robert, is this?"

The woman looked up, puzzled.

"Ah Jones, this gentleman is also a believer in the 'Black Messenger'. He came to visit the production process of the 'anti-epidemic medicine'... Maybe it is for the sake of other people's health."

Robert said, and finally added a sentence.

He turned his head indiscriminately, quietly looked at the expression of the black-haired young man beside him, and found that the other party hadn't changed, so he was slightly relieved.

'It seems that it is just an ordinary herbal candy, this couple is a bit interesting...'

When Chen Lun saw this, he knew what was going on.

His gaze inadvertently glanced at a potted plant placed under a tree in the inner courtyard, and a small golden lemon tree was planted inside.

"Aren't the two followers of the 'Natural Sect'?"

Chen Lun spoke softly.

Robert and his wife Jones were startled and their mouths opened slightly.

"You are not doing something ulterior, why are you still using the name of 'Black Messenger'...?"

On Chen Lun's chest, the shell necklace exuded a faint light.

"...Sir, we don't want to do that either, it's just that the 'Natural Sect' has a bad reputation in the empire, and it's hard to convince people to rashly sell homemade anti-epidemic medicine."

Robert was in a daze for a moment, then said with a wry smile.

"Jones's parents and I, and... the children, both died in a plague five years ago... We were impressed by that, and also had some research on the plague.

We don't want this sudden plague to kill too many people like it did before... So we can only use the recently raised 'Black Messenger' to win people's trust. "

His wife Jones nodded and said:

"The rich people in the inner city don't care about this small amount of money, but for the outer city, or even the civilians outside the city, it is life-saving money... We hope to earn more money, and then go outside the city to treat those Patients in need."

Chen Lun got the answer he wanted and sighed secretly.

At the same time, he thought of the public beta.

'Will the plague this time affect the plot after the public beta? '

I remember that I was born in another Bangcheng area during the public beta in my previous life.At that time, a large-scale sacrificial activity took place in the big city where he was located, and behind it was a large group composed of many small evil forces.

This is the initial hostile force of the beta players in that area, and it has continued until the mainline of version 1.0 opens.

It is equivalent to a plot stage for players to transition and adapt.

'I have to say, it really looks like...'

Chen Lun thought carefully.

Chen Lun frowned and chose to accept.
