589: Chapter 592 Doomsday of All Realms (Online)
Lu Chen had his own thoughts on this suspicious point.
He had made his own conjectures.
Of course, the truth of the matter might be completely different from his guesses.
"I'm going to enter your world now."
As his voice fell, the Clone stepped directly into this Magic World.
He first descended into the Mortal Realm.
According to the plan.
He had to investigate first.
To see if there were other unknown organizations hidden in this world besides the forces mentioned by the world will.
...
Lu Chen's figure.
Appeared at the peak of a towering mountain.
With a sweep of his Divine Thought, he discovered a small village at the foot of the mountain.
He planned to go to the village first to gather some information.
After all, the world will was currently at the end of its rope.
All its power was being used to suppress the poisonous magic power.
It was simply unable to keep track of the latest developments in the Mortal Realm.
Lu Chen started walking down the mountain.
He hadn't gone far.
When he saw a group of children playing in the woods.
"Let's play a game of pretending to be mages!"
"Okay, okay! I want to play as Chris, the ice mage!"
"Then I'll be Harriet, the fire mage!"
"No! I want to be Chris too!"
A little girl pouted, her face full of reluctance.
"But you're a girl, you should play as Mancosto, the light mage."
"Alright..."
The little girl responded gloomily, her mouth still pouting high.
Lu Chen walked forward with a smile.
"Children, what are you playing?"
The children immediately became alert.
They stopped their game one after another.
"Mister, who are you?"
The oldest boy asked cautiously.
"I'm a traveler. I accidentally got lost and happened to see you playing here, so I came over to ask for directions."
Hearing this, the children's wariness eased slightly.
"But we don't know the way out of the mountains either. If you don't mind, mister, you can go to the village and ask the elders."
The boy added.
"Alright, thank you. Can I ask one more question?"
Lu Chen still wore a smile.
"What question?"
"I heard you talking about playing as mages just now. Do you know what a mage is?"
At the mention of mages.
Proud expressions immediately appeared on the children's faces.
"Of course we know! Mages were gods who walked the earth thousands of years ago!"
"So, there are no more mages now?"
Lu Chen continued to ask.
"That goes without saying! Thousands of years ago, magic elements disappeared, and the mages disappeared along with them!"
The boy answered loudly.
"Mister, you're so old, how can you not even know such a simple thing?"
The little girl blinked her large eyes, looking at him with suspicion.
"Because I live very far away and have never heard of these things."
"Thank you for telling me so much. These are fruits I brought from my hometown, they're for you."
Lu Chen handed the children several spirit fruits that could increase their Lifespan.
Even if they could never become mages in this life.
After eating the spirit fruits, they would gain an extra two hundred years of Lifespan.
"Thank you, mister!"
The children took the spirit fruits and laughed happily.
After bidding farewell to the children, Lu Chen walked straight toward the village.
He planned to ask the elders in the village to see if they knew anything.
...
Just as he entered the village, Lu Chen noticed.
Although the village was small, it was a scene of prosperity.
The villagers' faces were filled with happy smiles.
The atmosphere of the entire village was very harmonious.
"Excuse me, where is the village chief's house?"
Lu Chen asked a vendor who was selling vegetables at a stall.
"Who are you? I haven't seen you before."
The vendor looked him up and down, his eyes full of vigilance.
Lu Chen casually took out a silver coin and handed it over.
The suspicion in the vendor's eyes vanished without a trace instantly.
"Hehe, so it's a distinguished guest! The village chief's house is over there, just keep going straight and you'll see it!"
The vendor immediately pointed the way enthusiastically.
Lu Chen thanked the vendor and walked quickly toward the village chief's house.
Just as he reached the door, he saw a middle-aged man watering flowers in the courtyard.
Lu Chen couldn't help but smile.
This man was definitely no ordinary person...
He exuded the Aura of a powerful expert.
He was at least a second-rank expert.
His strength was comparable to an S-class warrior from the Blue Star Universe.
"Hello, Village Chief."
Lu Chen took the initiative to greet him.
"Hello. May I ask who you are?"
The village chief put down the watering can and asked calmly.
"Village Chief, I'll get straight to the point."
"I am a researcher traveling around, and I've come to investigate why the magic elements in this world suddenly dried up."
"Do you know anything about this?"
The village chief was silent for a moment and shook his head.
"I'm sorry, I know nothing about it."
Lu Chen keenly captured a flash of fear in the village chief's eyes.
He sighed inwardly.
It seemed there must be some unknown secret hidden in this village.
Lu Chen slightly released a trace of his pressure.
The village chief's legs immediately went weak, and he fell to his knees with a "thud."
"Lord, have mercy! This lowly one failed to recognize your greatness and has offended you. Please forgive me, Lord!"
The village chief's voice was filled with terror.
"Get up, I have no intention of hurting you."
"Tell me the truth, what forces are there in the world today?"
The village chief composed himself.
Only then did he reveal everything he knew.
Today's world had long been controlled by a mysterious organization.
Magic elements hadn't actually disappeared completely.
They had just become extremely thin.
But there were still some Secret Realms with rich magic power in the world where a few mages would occasionally be born.
But these mages would eventually be forcibly recruited by that mysterious organization.
Anyone who dared to refuse would mysteriously disappear, never to be heard from again.
Lu Chen understood.
It seemed the clue he was looking for was with this mysterious organization.
He asked the village chief for the location of the organization's headquarters.
No one knew the name of the organization, but all mages were aware of its existence.
The village chief couldn't give a specific location either, but only offered a suggestion:
As long as one revealed their magical strength in a city.
People from that organization would naturally come to find them.
After leaving the village.
Lu Chen headed straight for the kingdom's capital.
...
This capital was indeed grand and magnificent, with an extraordinary Aura.
Lu Chen changed into noble attire and walked into a high-end restaurant.
After having his fill of food and wine, not only did he not pay.
Instead, he performed wind magic in public.
He even threatened the shopkeeper, saying that if he dared to ask for the bill, he would level the entire restaurant.
The shopkeeper trembled with fear on the surface.
But a cold killing intent flashed in his eyes.
The reason Lu Chen chose this restaurant.
Was precisely because he noticed.
The owner of this shop was actually a fifth-rank expert.
With such strength.
He could never be just an ordinary restaurant owner.
He must have countless ties to that mysterious organization.
