Little Fox: I Peed All Over Your Bed!!!
Let alone the future, even now, Chen Luo is confident that he can fight against most S-rank Talent User and not be at a disadvantage.
But Chen Luo was still unsure what those big shots had left for future generations.
Therefore, Chen Luo still plans to continue developing.
"Brother Luo, you have a good attitude. So, are you interested in joining the direct line of the Relevant Department? Although it doesn't pay as much as those aristocratic families with start-up capital, it's fair. The more you contribute, the more you get. More work, more pay; less work, less pay; no work, no pay," Liu Wenxuan suddenly said to Chen Luo.
The Relevant Department internally refer to a merit-based system, where the more merits one makes, the greater the reward.
Aristocratic families value closeness; if they like you, they'll give you more, and if they don't, they'll give you less, depending entirely on the patriarch's whims.
"I'm not interested. To be honest, I respect this kind of fairness, but I don't like it. I'd rather just give up and get paid." Chen Luo said frankly.
"What a coincidence... Wait, believe it or not, there really is such a good thing." Liu Wenxuan suddenly said.
"What? Is there really such a good thing? Tell me quickly, which big bastard is it?" Chen Luo immediately became interested.
"The Yun family," Liu Wenxuan said.
"Ha?"
"Brother Luo, I'm not trying to be mean, but if you were to lower yourself and give up your body to marry into any of the Yun family heads, you'd really just be good for lying around."
"Let me tell you, the Yun family is the kind of family that doesn't fight with the world. Because they have two S-rank Talent User in the family, although there are some minor internal conflicts, it doesn't stop them from taking action together when someone tries to mess with the Yun family."
"Moreover, the Yun family doesn't have many Talent User, only a few in total, because neither of the two family heads needs many guards and they leave everything to fate. So they currently have a lot of resources at their disposal, but very few people using those resources."
"Wait, two family heads? Yun Lian'er and Yun Xia's parents? And where did this 'marrying-in' thing come from?"
"The two family heads I was referring to are actually Yun Xia and Yun Lian'er. Because two Talent User have appeared almost simultaneously, a situation that has never occurred in any family before, so they now have two family heads. As long as you, Brother Luo, get on the good side of either of them, you can really just lie around for the rest of the time."
"Believe it or not, I'll spray you to death with a mouthful of salt soda."
"Brother Luo, don't disbelieve me. Do you know why no Relevant Department has contacted you to register yet? You know, almost every time a Talent User is discovered, the Relevant Department comes to register them."
"Why?" Chen Luo asked after swallowing the mouthful of soda he was about to spray at Liu Wenxuan.
"Because Brother Luo, you've already implicitly accepted that you're a member of the Yun family, and your status isn't low," Liu Wenxuan said.
"Huh? When? How come I didn't know?" Chen Luo was completely bewildered.
"Whether you care or not is irrelevant; what matters is what others think. Think about it: Yun Xia and Yun Lian'er are the two heads of the Yun family. You accompany Yun Xia to class from Monday to Friday and Yun Lian'er to study on Saturdays and Sundays. Do you believe that you and the others have no relationship at all?" Liu Wenxuan said, lying back in his seat as if he was just being lazy.
"I believe you!" Chen Luo said with great conviction.
"Isn't that because you know the specifics? I believe you too, but others don't. Ah, do you know what's being spread? They're saying you're being kept by those two Yun family heads. That's right, that's how outrageous it is."
"A sugar daddy... cough cough, a sugar daddy? Cough cough, okay, stop talking about it. Let's change the subject." Chen Luo coughed wildly on the spot.
"Brother Luo, what's wrong? Are you alright?" Liu Wenxuan asked with some concern.
"It's alright for now, but if you keep talking, things might get complicated." Chen Luo calmed the Herrscher of Knowledge, who was starting to riot, in his sea of consciousness, while also dealing with Liu Wenxuan.
Why are you so angry?
I'm not even angry.
"Let's change the subject? Sure, Brother Luo, would you be interested in going to the Abyss to see what it's like? You mean the Abyss Channel?" Liu Wenxuan asked.
"I've heard you guys talk about the Abyss Channel, but I don't really know much about it," Chen Luo said, stroking his chin.
"Actually, the Abyss Channel is called a passage, but it is a very large place. The smallest Abyss Channel that has been stabilized is still the size of ten Capital City."
"So big?" Chen Luo exclaimed in surprise.
"I'm talking about the ones that have stabilized. Aren't there still some that haven't stabilized yet? And this isn't even that big. Think about it, this is a passage formed by two planes stacked together, and one plane is equivalent to an entire world, not the entire Earth. This is essentially a passage between two universes. It's no wonder it's small."
"If that's the case, doesn't that mean some of the Abyss Channel aren't on Earth? They might be in other parts of the universe?"
"No, no, no, this kind of thing can only be used on Earth, because the point of contact between the two worlds is Earth. I don't know if it's intentional on the Plane Consciousness or a coincidence or something... From what I understand, it seems that only after conquering Earth can those people from the Abyss use Earth as a springboard to continue expanding the plane's passage and invading other places," Liu Wenxuan replied.
What's inside that dimensional passage?
"There's a lot more. This includes, but is not limited to, some things that have been derived from the dimensional portal itself, as well as some special rewards."
"What special reward?"
"Perhaps it's because the Abyss Plane and our plane are the highest-level planes, so the plane passage created by the compression of the two planes is of extremely high quality, attracting many things from other planes. After these things descend into the plane passage, they will create secret realms, which you can think of as dungeons. After clearing the dungeons, you will receive rewards."
"For example, my blacksmith profession was a reward item that came with an Emperor's New Clothes concept set. Putting everything else aside, I made enough money just from this series of sets. Basically, every Talent User comes to me to customize their own combat set. Although it doesn't offer much protection, it looks good, just like fashion items in a game." Liu Wenxuan was quite proud of this.
"A blacksmith..." Chen Luo's heart stirred.
Could it be that those so-called secret realms or dungeons can actually produce class certificates? Or something similar to class certificates?
Then it will be necessary to go and take a look later.
"By the way, since you said that almost all Talent User customize things, what did Yun Xia and Yun Lian'er customize?" Chen Luo asked curiously.
Chen Luo still felt uneasy about Yun Xia mentioned this matter.
"Those two... they are both my clients. Yun Xia ordered Witch Set, mainly to cover up the embarrassing pink Magical Girl outfit she wears when she transforms into Magical Girl."
"Pink Magical Girl outfit?" Chen Luo suddenly became interested upon hearing this.
"That's right, it's the pink Magical Girl outfit. It's a pity that I've known her for so long, and out of respect for you, Brother Luo, I was the first to create a concept outfit for her. So very few people have actually seen her transformation outfit, because those who have seen it had their memories erased by her using magic cards. It's that one called 'Memory Erasure Cards,' and it seems to have been modified. Sigh..." Liu Wenxuan's head ached just thinking about Yun Xia's numerous cards.
It can be said that Yun Xia is exactly the kind of enemy that Liu Wenxuan hates the most.
It's not that we can't beat them, it's that we can't reach them.
"What about Lian'er's?" Having learned from Yun Xia's experience, Chen Luo was even more excited about Yun Lian'er's outfit.
"This... I can't say," Liu Wenxuan said somewhat awkwardly.
"Oh, what's wrong? Is it some kind of agreement?"
"Agreements are meant to be broken. If it were just a verbal agreement, breaking it wouldn't be a problem, since we're practically family. The key is that Yun Lian'er is a mage, and she can sign contracts. The contract stipulates that she can't reveal the clothes she's made, or even give any hints," Liu Wenxuan said helplessly.
"Originally, I didn't want to sign the contract, but the key is that Yun Lian'er gave me just too much."
"Yes, I understand." Chen Luo nodded in deep agreement.
If someone offered Chen Luo 3,000 Primogem to keep a secret, Chen Luo would rather die than reveal it.
Chapter 216 Little Fox: I'll pee on your bed!!!
"Can anyone go to this Abyss Channel? Are there any restrictions?" Chen Luo was slightly curious about this.
After all, who wouldn't want a free reward?
Just like no man would refuse to scavenge for trash in the wasteland.
That's why Chen Luo searched for so many things in Changkong City.
However, Chen Luo felt that he probably wouldn't have time to go, mainly because his Present Tense filled with various commissions.
Tomorrow morning, I'll get up early and steal all of Fu Hua's clothes and belongings while she's at school to complete the Herrscher of Knowledge Hunt reward.
Although Herrscher of Knowledge doesn't seem to care too much about it now, the problem is that the commission has already been accepted, so Herrscher of Knowledge has no choice but to go.
If you can just say you're not going, then why did you even issue the request?
It's too late to regret it now.
After stealing the items, I'll have to go to the World Serpent Base in the morning or afternoon.
After all, I made a promise to the Raven, and it's been so long, I should keep my word. Besides, tomorrow is the last day of the five-day period.
The Abyss Channel is great, but Chen Luo doesn't have time to go there.
Besides these two things, there are many other things to do.
Including but not limited to thinking about how to revive Kallen?
How do we get Hill out of the Sea of Quantum?
It's about the relationship between the Serenity Gem and the Gem of Desire.
He practiced Puppetry Arts and pondered how to make a trip to the underworld of the Flower Snake's world.
Also, Chen Luo was very interested in Morax's Archon's Remains, which was also a dragon. He wondered what it would taste like.
And this is just the amount of commissions Chen Luo has received from the neighborhood up to today; Chen Luo can't possibly stop accepting commissions altogether in the future...
"Abyss Channel ... Brother Luo, why do you suddenly look so tired?" Liu Wenxuan asked curiously, looking at Chen Luo who was slumped on the table, looking utterly hopeless.
"It feels like I have a lot of things to do, but when I think about it carefully, there's nothing really."
Yes, Chen Luo's schedule was packed for the next few days, but he couldn't tell Liu Wenxuan about the hardships he was going through.
However, you reap what you sow. What Chen Luo wants to do most right now is to save up his Primogem until he can draw that 6-star item and see what it is.
"I have a feeling that you're not having an easy time either, Brother Luo." Liu Wenxuan nodded as if he had a premonition.
In fact, it would be strange for Liu Wenxuan if Chen Luo hadn't hidden anything from him at all.
What kind of cerebral palsy would allow someone to completely share their thoughts with others?
Everyone has secrets, okay? Even Liu Wenxuan is no exception.
Therefore, Liu Wenxuan never asked Chen Luo how he suddenly disappeared and then suddenly returned seven days later.
However, only those who pay close attention to Chen Luo and his close associates can discover this, so it's not a big problem.
"Back to the Abyss Channel, there are currently three Abyss Channel within China's borders. That's because we have the largest territory," Liu Wenxuan said.
"Wait a minute, aren't Russia and the United States the countries with the largest land areas?" Chen Luo raised an objection.
"Well... how should I put it? Brother Luo, you know, right? During the Abyss invasion, those big shots came out once, and naturally, they fought over all the good stuff for their own families. The Abyss Channel is the same; it can produce a lot of good stuff, so it has become a key point of contention for the big shots of every mythology system."
"Those big shots are all capable of moving mountains and filling seas, so it's still possible to change the location of the Abyss Channel through special means."
"But Brother Luo, you know America, right? It's only been around for a few hundred years. They don't have any big shots at all. There are a lot of big shots in the Americas, but... it's already a favor that those legendary big shots in North America didn't wipe America off the map with a single slap." Liu Wenxuan shrugged helplessly.
"Ah, this..." Chen Luo didn't know what to say for a moment.
The complex history and grievances between the native inhabitants of North America and the United States are well-known to anyone with a basic understanding of history.
The United States is a nation of immigrants. In its early days, immigrants from Western countries came to North America to expand their territory. However, their methods of expansion were somewhat barbaric, and they almost massacred all the local inhabitants.
It seems there was an atrocity back then, with a large reward offered for the return of Native American skulls.
If you put it that way, then it makes sense.
500 years! Only 500 years have passed, and it's all gone. Their faith is completely gone, and almost all believers have been wiped out.
"The territory I'm referring to here isn't real-world territory, but rather the current strength of the nation. China is currently the largest, because it has a significant number of awakened Talent User this time, and its real-world territory is also large. Most importantly, the previous generation in China was quite capable, so they managed to seize three Abyss Channel. The United States also has one, but that one is too small for most people to care about—it's the one I mentioned that's ten times the size of Capital City. And those big shots still have to save face, so they didn't take it all," Liu Wenxuan said.
"Other countries also have a maximum of three, but the Abyss Channel vary in size. Our country's three are of very high quality and cover a large area, unlike other countries."
"Our country has three Abyss Channel: one in Capital City, one in Bashu, and one in our city. However, I don't recommend going to the Abyss Channel in our city," Liu Wenxuan said.
"Why?" Chen Luo Qi asked curiously.
Although Chen Luo and his group are not far from the Capital City, why go to such lengths? Weren't all three Abyss Channel supposed to be of high quality?
"Well... firstly, because we're in the Abyss Channel, and the other Abyss Plane is the territory of a rather troublesome race. Secondly, the location of our city's Abyss Channel is beneath the Heavenly Prison," Liu Wenxuan said helplessly.
"Oh, I see. Wait a minute, the Heavenly Prison is in our city? Wasn't it supposed to be in the Capital City?" Chen Luo exclaimed in surprise.
"The official announcement says it's in the Capital City, and the name of the Heavenly Prison is the Third Mental Hospital, but Brother Luo, have you forgotten? Our city has one called the First Mental Hospital. Actually, there's more than one Heavenly Prison; it's a whole system. Our city's Heavenly Prison has the strictest control. Generally, any S-rank Talent User is sent here, so you could say it's the main Heavenly Prison."
"Hmm, I was thinking our city wasn't exactly a capital city before, so why are we so favored by those big shots?"
It's both the main Heavenly Prison and the Abyss Channel.
"Oh, that's because the owner of that Heavenly Prison used to be from our city, so he showed special favor to his hometown. It's just that the way he showed favor was a bit unusual, but the Abyss Channel itself is in our city." Liu Wenxuan shrugged.
"I understand. Simply put, it's because that Abyss Channel is below the Heavenly Prison that you dare not go there, right? And it's also because the other side of this Abyss Channel is actually the territory of a very powerful race?"
"Pretty much. Even someone like me, a direct subordinate of a Relevant Department, wouldn't dare go to the Heavenly Prison. What if those higher-ups in those Relevant Department suddenly lost their minds and started plotting something? A wise person avoids dangerous situations. Anyway, our city isn't far from the Capital City..."
Although Liu Wenxuan was brave, he was not stupid.
"However, because of this, the Abyss Channel in our city is actually the cheapest, requiring only 100 low-grade spirit stones to enter. The Abyss Channel in the Capital City requires at least 500 low-grade spirit stones as an entrance fee."
