The one who arrived was none other than Thotmudo. Just a moment ago, taking advantage of Yasen’s momentary distraction, he had stealthily run ahead to this place.

He gave Ji Chen a quick look, confirming that he was unhurt. Then his gaze shifted to Verena, who was wearing poorly-fitting clothes. With surprise, he remarked, “Well, well, it hasn’t been long, and you’ve already found another sex partner? She seems pretty capable too.”

At first, Ji Chen was happy to see Thotmudo, but he was nearly taken aback when he heard this. “Verena is my new subordinate, not some sex partner.”

“They’re all the same. I remember that Siren named Alice and that female half-orc named Irona. Aren’t they both your subordinates, and didn’t you have a thing with them?”

Ji Chen felt that Verena’s gaze towards him was somewhat strange and had to reluctantly respond, “Sir Thotmudo, how did you end up here? Weren’t you on a mission to uncover why the dwarven clan fell apart?”

Thotmudo sighed and had a somewhat gloomy expression.

“Kid, have you heard of any strange folks since you arrived on the Northern Continent? Like a bunch of lunatics called ‘Deceivers’?”

“I have, but what about them?”

“Those Deceivers are the culprits who caused the downfall of the dwarven clan thousands of years ago!”

Ji Chen was taken aback. Could it really be true?

Deceivers were indeed treacherous, but could they bring the once-mighty dwarven clan to such a state?

“If you happen to encounter them, be extremely cautious. They hold a deep grudge against your kind,” Thotmudo cautioned gravely.

“But, Sir, I’ve already encountered them and taken down quite a few.”

Ji Chen pursed his lips and pointed to the ground beneath him, saying, “Right here is their secret base in Maple City. We wiped them out completely over the past two days. I even captured their leader, except for the one with the silver mask. Everyone else was killed by me.”

Thotmudo’s eyes widened in astonishment. It was at this moment that he recalled the rumors he’d heard along the way; it seemed that the elves were involved in some operation against an evil organization. So, they were hunting down Deceivers?

“I see. So, kid, tell me about your encounters with them.”

Ji Chen had nothing to hide. He briefly recounted the events, from capturing the Marshland Dragon to being deceived by the Deceivers and finally breaking into their base to capture the Deceiver leader with the silver mask.

Of course, he left out the details of his dealings with the elves, his transformation into Zhao Liangchen, and the involvement of Luo Yang.

After hearing the story, Thotmudo praised him, “From what I’ve heard, not only did those lunatics fail to take you down, but they suffered a significant loss. You even wipe out the Deceivers in Maple City? You’re quite the remarkable lad!”

Ji Chen smiled slightly and asked with curiosity, “I’ve heard before that the Deceivers hold a grudge against Divine Patrons.

Since you mentioned that I’m this so-called Chosen One, does that mean I’m the Divine Patron?”

This question had been lingering in his mind for a long time.

He had initially noticed hints during his time in the Black Skull Pirate’s lair.

At that moment, when the evil god Alexei tried to kill him forcibly, a mysterious force intervened, pushing him back into the statue and shattering it.

Then, there was the incident in the Skeleton Realm’s Kris Laboratory, where his consciousness was trying to enter the control center, but the cunning Kris was planning to take over his body. Once again, Kris was mysteriously killed by some presence.

And now, in the heart of the Northern Continent, the Deceivers considered him a Divine Patron, and Thotmudo had accidentally revealed that he was a Chosen One.

These pieces of information seemed to connect and hinted at a result.

Was he being favored or protected by some divine being?

During critical moments of danger, a presence always seemed to appear to help him escape.

Apart from that, he also thought about his “cheat” – the Military talent tree. Could it be related to this mysterious presence?

Facing his question, Thotmudo shook his head and gave a cryptic smile. “You’ll need to explore all of this on your own. The truth will reveal itself to you sooner or later.”

Ji Chen’s eyelid twitched.

Riddler, just get out of here!

In reality, Thotmudo didn’t know much about Ji Chen, and it was a bit challenging to say anything meaningful about him.

His statements were more to avoid appearing ignorant.

However, he did recognize that this young human, whether deemed a Chosen One or judged by his deeds and accomplishments, had boundless potential.

Perhaps, one day, when he climbed to the pinnacle of the world, he would unveil the truth behind all of this.

Without giving the two of them more time to converse, there was another commotion in the corridor. Yasen, accompanied by a large group of elves, appeared.

Upon seeing that Ji Chen was unharmed, Yasen heaved a sigh of relief and then glared at Thotmudo with anger in his eyes.

“Despicable dwarf! Not only did you intrude into our camp without permission, but you also attempted to harm Lord Ji Chen. This is unforgivable!

Today, you won’t leave this place!”

He was about to make a move, but Ji Chen reached out and stopped him.

“Your Excellency Yasen, Thotmudo is my friend.”

Yasen couldn’t help but be taken aback. A friend? Wasn’t he an enemy seeking revenge?

Thotmudo glanced at Yasen and a hint of disdain flickered in his eyes. “When did I ever say 1 wanted to harm this kid? Elves seem to have become more reckless, freely attacking without understanding the situation. Eilin’s teachings don’t seem to be effective..”
