I've Become the King of Villains in the Game

He went straight upstairs and returned to his room.

After taking off his coat and hat, he sat down on the sofa with a flop, then leaned back and closed his eyes.

A ring of green fluorescence slowly emerged from between his eyebrows—this was the "Wake of Insects" bookmark.

In the past six months, Chen Lun had spent some time figuring out how to internalize it. Now, he didn't need to hold it in his hand when using it, which greatly increased its concealment.

With a boom, a white light suddenly appeared.

Chen Lun opened his eyes and found himself already in the Immortal Realm.

He walked straight to the door of the lakeside cabin, glancing at the grapevine there, which had begun to bloom.

The changes in this transcendent grapevine confirmed his previous guess: the number of cabins he found determined its growth progress.

In the last half-year, Chen Lun had entered the Immortal Realm multiple times, using "Cabin Number One" in the Gloomy Forest as a starting point, and explored in both left and right directions, discovering two more cabins.

One of them had been "occupied" by him, and he named it "Cabin Number Two." In this cabin, he had once again found Philip's notes, which recorded one-fourth of the Supernatural Knowledge of the "Magician" from the Sequence Seven of the Destiny Faction.

With this, he now possessed half of the Supernatural Knowledge about the "Magician," bringing him one step closer to the preconditions necessary for advancement.

'Go to "Cabin Number One,"' he thought.

Chen Lun closed his eyes, connecting in his mind with the cabin in the Gloomy Forest.

The next moment, he felt the air around him fluctuating.

'Indeed, it's as convenient as a save point.'

With a light laugh, Chen Lun opened his eyes and pushed the door open, stepping out.

The trees were gloomy and indistinct, and black smoke began to spread from behind a few trees.

'It's the "Woodcutter," a polluted creature near "Cabin Number One." It's a waste of time to be held up by them, better move quickly.'

Chen Lun glanced back and, without waiting for those Woodcutters to show themselves, began to sprint towards the left.

"Cabin Number Two" was to his right, already fully explored by him. Now, he planned to occupy the cabin on the left before the public test arrived.

He ran for about ten minutes without encountering any danger.

But he did not let his guard down because of this, as every trip to the Immortal Realm was a different adventure.

Boom!

A loud noise suddenly came from the side. Discover stories at empire

Chen Lun turned his head to see a "wild boar" the size of a carriage compartment charging towards him.

On its forehead, it had a rectangular white bone plate, with a hideous human face vaguely visible on it. Two fangs, as long as arms, grew from its lower jaw, standing erect like spears.

On its back sat a "monkey" wearing a white bone mask, holding a basket made of vines.

Hu!

Chen Lun dodged to the side, just brushing past the charging "wild boar."

At the same time, he kicked out fiercely, hitting it hard in the underside of its belly.

Bang!!

Squeak—!!

The huge beast let out a rodent-like sharp squeal and then lost its balance, staggering to the side and almost flipping over.

Chen Lun took the opportunity to release his "Peeping Eye of Fate," observing its information.

'Another unintelligible polluted creature, a Bone-Faced Monkey and its pet? Its strength is about on par with that of a Sequence Eight Transcendent...'

The monkey hooted twice, throwing two colorful fruits from the basket. The big pig beneath it opened its mouth, sticking out its tongue like a chameleon to swallow the fruits.

The big pig squealed excitedly and charged at Chen Lun again, its two crimson eyes filled with madness.

Crack... clang!

Chen Lun swung the Silver Staff, which transformed into the Silver Sword.

'Swift Sword…'

He suddenly raised his hand, and the Silver Sword swept out a flash of cold light. An arc of pale purple Sword Qi, twinkling with light, flew out instantly, striking the face of the big pig.

Splash—!

Blood splattered, and the big pig squealed as a deep gash appeared on its face, half its nose sliced off.

The Power of Death carried by the Sword Qi turned the flesh around the wound a decaying black. The big pig's momentum faltered slightly, and it seemed a bit weaker.

Bang!!

In its frenzy, it collided head-on with Chen Lun.

However, he had already prepared various responses in his mind—this was the influence of his max-level "Knight Swordsmanship."

Chen Lun slapped his hand onto the bone plate on the big pig's forehead, leapt into the air, landed on its back, and brought the sword down ferociously towards the monkey!

Squeak!!

The monkey screamed in terror, but it was too late to dodge.

The silver light flashed, and its head along with half its body was cleaved apart by a single strike; its innards exploded amidst a cloud of red mist.

Chen Lun landed smoothly, turned around, and saw that the big pig had already run far away, the monkey's corpse falling off its back. The colorful wild fruits from its basket were scattered all around.

The big pig opened its mouth wide, swalling the fruits along with the monkey's body whole, and then underwent a violent transformation.

Its face's wounds healed rapidly, and its body began to swell and redden. An additional vague figure of a monkey appeared on the bone plate on its forehead.

'The name has changed, now it's become "Bone Plate Rat and its Food"?'

Misty fog swirled in Chen Lun's eyes, and he raised an eyebrow.

'Interesting…'

Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!!

He swung the Silver Sword in his hand, releasing three arcs of pale purple Sword Qi in succession.

Byers Swift Sword!

Hum hum!!
