I've Become the King of Villains in the Game

Midnight.

Chen Lun lay on the bed in the guest room.

He turned around to look at the table by the window, and by the moonlight, he could clearly see a portrait placed on it.

— A young man with black hair dressed in a suit, one hand resting on a Silver Staff, the other gently pulling down the brim of his hat. Wearing a light smile, he gazed outside the painting.

It goes without saying, Noah's painting skills were indeed superb, capturing one-tenth of his own handsomeness.

Chen Lun silently reflected.

In the end, he had persuaded Noah to dress the figure in the painting in clothes to prevent him from catching a cold. Noah was surprised and then praised his kindness.

Chen Lun no longer looked at the painting and chose to lie flat.

"Tomorrow I have arranged a meeting with Polaris and the other players..."

He muttered.

This was his plan for what came next, he was preparing to retaliate.

It's not polite not to return a favor, and since the Shelter and the Red Apple Church had been so aggressive, he would not hold back. His own home had been raided, and along with Connie and Floey, he had been forced to hide here and there. Chen Lun never saw himself as someone easy to bully.

He was prepared to break them down one by one.

The first target he chose was the Red Apple Church!

The professional system he had previously conceived needed a new Sub Occupation, which could be obtained from the Red Apple Church. Another reason was the "High Sequence Flesh Faction Mysterious Substance".

After all, it was a church branch in a big city; he might have a chance to obtain it.

"But before that, I need to make some preparations."

Chen Lun took out the "Wake of Insects" bookmark and inspected it in his hand. No one could imagine that this ordinary green bookmark was an "S-Class Mysterious Object".

He gently placed the "Wake of Insects" on his forehead.

Boom!

When Chen Lun opened his eyes, he saw the same huge tree that covered the sky in the distance.

He walked up to the "Vine Platform" in front, picked up "Philip's Dreamland Adventure", and then returned to reality.

Lying on the bed, with the moonlight shining on him, Chen Lun opened the book.

A white light emerged.

He reappeared in the "Immortal Realm" within the book, on that grassland.

"Sanity Value is limited; I have to hurry."

Chen Lun reminded himself in his mind.

With a flicker, he moved like a blur and arrived in front of the wooden hut by the lake, walking straight in.

He hadn't fully explored the hut before, and this time he intended to thoroughly check it.

Unfortunately, after a thorough search, Chen Lun found nothing else of value, only discovering a playing card on the table.

The face of the card was the Spade Jack, and on a blank corner were written some words:

"— I regret that I have foreseen my inescapable demise tomorrow.

This place will belong to you then, my friend."

Chen Lun's eyes narrowed.

Left by Philip before his death?

But who is the "you" in this last message...?

Could it be me?

He was startled by this guess.

"It must be a coincidence… As a Mid Sequence Transcendent, Philip could not have foreseen the future so many years later, specifically pinpointing me."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

He thought to himself.

Just then, the playing card suddenly freed itself from his grasp.

Chen Lun was shocked.

But before he could react, the playing card had embedded itself in his chest.

"!!"

Opening his collar, a black letter "J" had appeared branded on his left chest.

At the same time, in his mind, a flood of information emerged—

This was a fictional world.

Based on Philip's own experiences, using his perspective to frame it, he created this fictional world... He had once been to a strange place, filled with absurdity and peculiarity, which also hid opportunities.

He didn't know what that place was called, so he named it "Immortal Realm".

Limited by his power, Philip's exploration journey progressed slowly, and until the very last moment before his death, he never reached the fringes of the "Immortal Realm". Thus, he recorded everything he saw and learned, recreating it into this fictional world.

But please remember.

It is very dangerous, extremely dangerous, covered by intense premonitions of death at every moment. Therefore, this fictional world is also quite dangerous, and you should not let your guard down just because it seems false.

Because the absurdity and strangeness of "Immortal Realm" are beyond imagination, this fictional world is also deeply eroded and influenced, obtaining a shadow and a touch of reality from the "Immortal Realm".

This also led to the particularity of this book.

It is cursed, not allowed to exist in reality.

Fortunately, at that time, Philip's lover, Maggie, created a "Safe Hut" for him as a temporary shelter from the storm. As long as one stays inside, they can avoid danger.

Philip also wrote this hut into the book, so you can seek refuge there.

Now, you are the new owner of this hut.

You are also the new owner of this fictional world.

You can follow in Philip's footsteps, complete his unfinished wishes, and pursue his unfinished matters—

Explore the place he named "Immortal Realm".

"'Immortal Realm'...? What exactly is it?"

Chen Lun's eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

With his memories from his past life, he had never heard of it.

According to Philip's description, he also had no impression.

"So, you mean that this here is a replica of 'Immortal Realm', but it still possesses dangers. In critical moments, one needs to hide in the 'Safe House' to avoid danger?"

Chen Lun pondered thoughtfully, feeling that the mysteries were multiplying.

After he received the brand and information, he found that he seemed to have some kind of "authority" to control certain "switches" in this fictional world.

Such as the hut's "switch", and the lake's "switch"...

"Lake?"

Chen Lun was puzzled.

He stepped out of the hut and came to the lake behind it.

There, he saw a mermaid statue. It stood on the shore, tail raised, eyes fixed on the surface of the lake, quietly lost in thought.

Chen Lun slowly walked over, following the statue's gaze toward the lake. Read exclusive chapters at empire

He had a strong premonition that simply by jumping into the water, he could officially reach the starting point of this replica "Immortal Realm". The scene at the lakeside hut was merely a safe area before departure.

Chen Lun turned his head to look once more at the mermaid statue.

On its base, there were some words left:

"—To Maggie, I will never forget the look in your eyes as you silently watched me depart.

Just as you will never forget, the fiery love I have for you."

Chen Lun understood.

This statue was built by Philip, to commemorate his lover, Maggie.

"Maggie..."

Chen Lun muttered the name.

"So it's a Deep Sea Mermaid, huh?"

He looked up and suddenly noticed—

The eyes of the statue had somehow turned and were quietly gazing at him.

Those eyes, calm and indifferent.

[You are watched by an Angel! Sanity-99!]

Boom!!!

His vision went pitch black.

Chen Lun's eyes exploded, disintegrated, his body riddled with cracks like shattered porcelain.

The next moment.

Spurt—!!

Countless golden branches pierced out from inside Chen Lun.

In the last moment of his fading consciousness, he faintly heard a distant female voice whispering.

"Philip, is this the person you were looking for?"
