I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 587 - 403
Chapter 587: 403
Chapter 587: 403
The Pearl Barmogo had been repaired for five days at Anastasia Port before setting sail again.
The journey this time did not encounter any mishaps, and after more than ten days had passed, on the twenty-first of February, they finally arrived at Orange Bay Harbor.
There were two more stops before reaching the port of Bixie Crost in the Royal City, but Chen Lun planned to disembark here to complete his mission of delivering a letter.
“Floey, you guys stay on the ship. I’ll come to meet up with you later, and then we’ll enter the Royal City together,”
Chen Lun, standing at the gangway, turned and said to the circus executives.
“Hmm.”
Floey obediently nodded her head.
“Please be careful on the road.”
“I will.”
Chen Lun took a step forward with a smile, giving Floey a gentle hug.
But at that moment, Noah suddenly spoke up:
“Mr. Jack, could you take me with you? Your journey will pass through Kellettville Forest and the Augusta Mountains, where it’s said there are many rare natural wonders. I’d like to see them and do some sketching on the way.”
He sheepishly scratched the back of his head.
“As you know, I am better at portrait painting, and not so proficient at depicting landscapes and scenes. I’d like to take this opportunity to hone my skills.”
After some thought, Chen Lun felt there was no problem in taking Noah along.
However, suddenly, the cow Antonio also spoke up:
“Antonio also wants to accompany Mr. Jack. Antonio wants to walk in the forest and breathe some real fresh air…the sea is too awful, and the city is too awful. Antonio really hates it!”
Chen Lun chuckled lightly, nodding to both Noah and Antonio.
“In that case, you two can follow me.”
The man and the cow were very happy, Noah even dragging out his prepared painting bag and luggage. Seeing that he was now taking both of them, Chen Lun casually turned to Maggie and asked:
“Maggie, do you want to come along, too? I remember that the Naturalist Sect is located in the Kellettville Forest…”
“No, Leader.”
Maggie shook her head.
“I’d rather not run into some acquaintances to avoid the awkwardness…and now that I’ve become a ‘Vaccinator,’ I’m seen as a complete heretic in their eyes. It might cause you trouble.”
Seeing Maggie’s refusal, Chen Lun didn’t insist.
After giving a few instructions to the circus crew, he walked down the gangway with Noah and Antonio.
In fact, the two groups weren’t losing contact, since the circus executives bore his “Pale Mark,” which allowed for sensing and communication at any time…and moreover, Chen Lun had left his Deception Incarnation behind on the ship to manage things well.
Once off the ship, Chen Lun led the man and the cow from Orange Bay Harbor toward the city center.
Since he was accompanied by Antonio, it was not convenient to ride in carriage, so he opted to walk.
The size of Maple City was quite substantial, larger than any other city Chen Lun had previously stayed in. To the north of it were three small town areas, among which Olivares Town was closest to the Kellettville Forest and was a necessary route to the forest.
By the afternoon,
Chen Lun had crossed Maple City and reached Olivares Town.
The trio standing by the roadside attracted quite a bit of attention from the locals…since the town’s population consistently remained around one thousand, any new faces would draw the residents’ focus.
Especially since Chen Lun and Noah were dressed impeccably and were accompanied by a cow, this combination was quite odd. Many of the old people in Olivares Town stared at them with a xenophobic and strange gaze, almost expressing “damn outsiders, hurry up and leave” on their faces.
Chen Lun ignored the odd looks from the pedestrians on the street, and looking up at the distant architecture, saw a series of continuous mountain ranges and patches of lush forest.
The forest and mountains surrounded the town, and as far as the eye could see, there was no end in sight.

This place was like a pristine settlement, with residents who likely seldom ventured far outside, generation after generation living and thriving here.
Chen Lun’s eyes slightly narrowed.
He felt an intuition from the Kellettville Forest ahead that “Cloud Leap” might not be feasible. The forest seemed to conceal something strange that interfered with spatial abilities; if he leapt carelessly, he could very likely get lost halfway.
Thinking it over, for safety’s sake, he decided to abandon the idea of taking Noah and Antonio on a Cloud Leap directly.
“Let’s go, we’ll get something to eat first and gather some information while we’re at it… The locals should have some knowledge about Kellettville Forest, perhaps we can learn something valuable from them,”
Chen Lun said to Noah and Antonio.
“Okay, Mr. Jack, I’m a bit hungry myself,”
Noah replied with a smile.
Antonio didn’t care much, as it wasn’t very hungry and could find some plants and grass to eat once they were in the forest.
So, Chen Lun searched along the way and found a slightly more upscale-looking restaurant, where he walked through the door.
“Sir, uh, how many are you…?”
A waiter dressed in a deep blue vest stood at the entrance, hastily asking as he saw customers arrive.
However, his gaze lingered a few extra moments on the cow next to Noah, wondering what these gentlemen meant by bringing a cow along.
“Three, just find us a space in the main hall.”
