Chen Luo: Can You Stop Obsessing Over That Villa Island of Yours?!!
"So there's an entrance fee?"
"Of course we have to charge admission. This is one of the ways the Relevant Department save money and screen Talent User. Strong Talent User can naturally obtain more resources, so it can be ensured that only Talent User with sufficient strength enter the Abyss Channel. This is also for their safety. Of course, I have three free entry opportunities every month, which is a special treatment directly under the Relevant Department."
"So, if you're interested in going to the Abyss Channel, Brother Luo, remember to call me. And if you can also get either Yun Xia or Yun Lian'er to come along, we can go to this Abyss Channel in our city and make a killing," Liu Wenxuan said.
"Why? Didn't you say that Abyss Channel was under the Heavenly Prison?" Chen Luo asked curiously.
"The Heavenly Prison is indeed powerful, capable of imprisoning S-rank Talent User, but it cannot hold two S-rank Talent User together. Don't think of the Heavenly Prison as too terrifying; Heavenly Prison is also created by humans. Two S-rank Talent User plus one A-rank Talent User are more than enough to safely pass through the Heavenly Prison. Moreover, with this lineup, it's uncertain whether they can defeat the demon races of the Abyss Plane, but they can definitely escape," Liu Wenxuan said confidently.
"Okay, I understand. I'll check out the Abyss Channel if I have the chance. Let's eat now."
Those Herrscher of Knowledge are already getting impatient.
Actually, if it were really going to venture into the Abyss Channel, Chen Luo would prefer to go alone.
After all, Chen Luo can unleash his power more fearlessly when he is not in a team with others.
The key is that it's only Chen Luo, so it's easier for Chen Luo to run.
Let's learn about Teleport Anchor.
It doesn't make sense that Chen Luo could even use the Teleport Anchor to teleport to Different World, but couldn't teleport back through the Abyss Channel.
Furthermore, using Teleport Anchor has another advantage: Chen Luo can save on entrance fees by simply inserting a Teleport Anchor in the Abyss Channel.
"Brother Luo, what style of clothes do you like?" Liu Wenxuan asked Chen Luo after dinner.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm planning to give you a set of the Emperor's New Clothes," Liu Wenxuan said matter-of-factly.
"Hmm, for me... how about you make me a set of Magus- style clothes, Wenxuan?" Chen Luo said, looking up.
"Magus- style outfit? Brother Luo, you're a melee fighter, why would you need Magus outfit?" Liu Wenxuan was taken aback.
"Look, you've got a fixed mindset too, haven't you? Who says Magus's robe has to be worn by Magus? If the other person also thinks I'm Magus and tries to fight me in close combat, can't I just use a big punch to beat them into begging for mercy?" Chen Luo said.
"Hmm, that makes sense." Liu Wenxuan nodded thoughtfully.
"Then I'll make you a Magus -style outfit suitable for melee combat. Brother Luo, do you want a dark style or a holy style? Which style would you prefer?" Liu Wenxuan continued to ask.
"Let's make it seem more sacred. Of course, if possible, I'd like both," Chen Luo said Empress.
In truth, Chen Luo secretly desired a dark-themed Magus's robe.
However, Chen Luo's profession also required Chen Luo to use the Holy system.
After all, the holy Magus's robe, combined with Chen Luo's bare feet and ability to fly, really makes him a perfect charlatan, which makes it easier for him to accept commissions.
"Sure. It's very simple." Liu Wenxuan nodded.
"Really?"
"Of course, these are all Conceptual Weapon anyway, so adding a few more concepts isn't particularly difficult. It's just that most people only chose one before, and it's quite rare for someone like you, Brother Luo, to choose two," Liu Wenxuan said.
"... Have you ever thought about something? It's not that they don't want to choose two, it's just that they think they can only choose one?" Chen Luo paused for a moment and then put forward a hypothesis.
Actually, if Chen Luo and Liu Wenxuan didn't have a good relationship, Chen Luo wouldn't have brought up this idea.
"..." Liu Wenxuan fell into deep thought.
"I'm back!" Chen Luo said as he kicked the door open.
"Welcome back. Would you like to eat first, take a shower first, or... spank the little fox's bottom first?" As soon as Chen Luo entered the door, he found that Book of Cang Xuan was already sitting obediently at the door, as if it was welcoming him.
Moreover, what Book of Cang Xuan said also made Chen Luo quite concerned.
"Hmm? What's the little fox up to now? The sofa looks fine to me," Chen Luo said, glancing at the sofa in the living room.
"The little fox didn't dismantle the sofa. I was watching her closely in the living room and made sure she didn't take anything down," Book of Cang Xuan said as if to assure her.
"Then why did you spank that vixen? Did she tear my bed apart?" Chen Luo asked, somewhat puzzled.
At the same time, Chen Luo also saw the little Chen Luo locked in the cage, looking at him with a confused expression as he returned home.
It is obvious that the Book of Cang Xuan locked the other party in a cage.
Although the little fox seems to possess a certain level of intelligence, it may have been a spirit beast before it transmigrated, or it may have been able to become a spirit beast through the modification of the Space-Time Turbulence.
But the little fox now is no match for the Book of Cang Xuan.
Although the Book of Cang Xuan is a support-type Armed Puppet, it still has the word "armed" in its name.
"The little fox didn't damage your bed, or rather, she didn't damage anything."
"That..."
"It just peed on your bed..." Book of Cang Xuan added, seeing Chen Luo's nonchalant expression.
"..." Upon hearing Book of Cang Xuan's words, Chen Luo was completely stunned.
As a result, the food that was meant for the Book of Cang Xuan and the little fox slipped from his hands and fell to the ground.
With lightning speed, Book of Cang Xuan caught the KFC family bucket he wanted from another world.
"Snap!"
However, the little fox wasn't so lucky; the fried tofu it wanted fell straight to the ground.
"Waaah!" The little fox cried out in pain when it saw its food fall to the ground.
"Alo, can I interview you about what you're thinking right now?" Book of Cang Xuan asked while biting into a chicken leg.
"I'm thinking, should I shave all its fur off and teach it a lesson?" Chen Luo said in a sinister tone.
You dare pee on my bed?! I'm going to turn evil!
Chapter 217 Chen Luo: Can't you just stop thinking about your villa island?!
"Boss, you're coming to World Serpent with me tomorrow, so don't go back on your word." Raven stood in front of Chen Luo with his hands on his hips, looking at Chen Luo sitting in his seat with an extremely imposing aura.
"I-I know, stay away from me." Chen Luo said, turning his head away.
"Stop being so perfunctory, okay? At least look me in the eye when you're talking," Raven said, displeased.
"Move that damn fat of yours away! It's almost touching Aro's face!" The Herrscher of Knowledge was also standing inside the bar, couldn't take it anymore and slapped Raven's pert, round breasts.
Unfortunately, due to the bar's complete protective features, the slap did not cause any damage; it only startled the Raven, causing it to take a step back.
The Raven took a step back and instinctively crossed its arms to protect its front.
"What are you doing?" Raven looked at Herrscher of Knowledge with displeasure.
"What are you doing?" The Herrscher of Knowledge was about to explode.
So what if you have big breasts? You think you can give people face wash? Show off again, and I'll smash them flat.
Of course, that's what they say, but at least in a bar, the Herrscher of Knowledge can't do that.
The Lady Herrscher of Knowledge can do anything!
Well, except in bars.
"Alright, alright, you two stop arguing. Don't worry, Raven, I'll definitely go to the World Serpent with you. So what if we go to the World Serpent? Is it going to eat me or what?" Chen Luo sneered and said disdainfully.
Chen Luo admitted that many things about the World Serpent were indeed too awesome, but Chen Luo was no pushover either.
Moreover, Chen Luo was still interested in many things about the World Serpent.
For example, World Serpent is a weakened version of Fusion Surgery, derived from Fusion Surgery. Although it is not as effective as Fusion Surgery, it also has fewer side effects.
As it turns out, older things aren't necessarily more impressive.
"It's good that you can keep your promise. The children have been staying in Changkong City. I really don't know how they are doing. I haven't had time to go back these past few days," Raven said with some concern.
"Don't worry, I've had my Honkai Beasts use that building as a base to drive away the surrounding Honkai Beasts, so it's definitely safe," Chen Luo reassured him.
"That's good. But I really didn't expect that you, boss, are still such an innocent young man." Raven bowed slightly, looking at Chen Luo with a teasing expression.
Raven didn't know why Chen Luo turned his head away just now, but now it does.
Oh dear, the Omnipotent Traveler Chen Luo, who remains unfazed by Honkai Beasts and Militants, is surprisingly bad at dealing with girls. Perhaps this is something he can make good use of.
"Manager, I feel my salary is a bit low, so could you give me a raise?" The mature and somewhat alluring smile appeared on Raven's face.
Moreover, his body took half a step forward.
But it's only half a step.
Although the Raven wanted to make money, it wasn't to the point where it absolutely had to.
The Raven was just trying it out.
Besides, although Raven has extensive experience in killing, robbing, and being a mercenary, Raven has never actually had a boyfriend...
In a sense, Raven and Chen Luo are the same...
"Hmm, want a raise? Sure, no problem. But I advise you to move those two bulges on your chest back a bit, otherwise I'm not sure if I'll bite them." After saying that, Chen Luo gritted his teeth.
"Wow, you're such a scoundrel." Raven straightened up and looked at Chen Luo with disgust.
"..."
Yes, yes, that's exactly the look in my eyes.
"Come on, who started this harassment between us? If you want a raise, just ask for a raise, why are you standing so close?"
They may be utterly depraved inside, but outwardly they must maintain a dignified facade.
Ahem, just kidding.
"So, is it really possible to get a raise?" Raven asked curiously.
Is it really that easy for this bar to raise wages?
"Since you look so good in this bartender uniform, from now on you can wear this uniform to work every day, and your salary will be increased to 5 work points per day, how about that?" Chen Luo said, leaning back in his chair.
"Huh? I didn't expect my first raise wouldn't be because of my outstanding performance, but because I looked good in my uniform?" Raven looked down at her outfit.
This outfit wasn't the mercenary uniform Raven usually wore; it was the clothes Raven used to wear when she worked at a bar.
Due to Chen Luo's strong suggestion, Raven changed out of her mercenary uniform when she started working at the bar.
"It really looks good, or rather, you're naturally beautiful, and you look good in anything. Of course, the most important thing is that this outfit is perfect for the theme. Our bar is a legitimate bar, not some underground intelligence bar. What's the point of wearing mercenary clothes all the time?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Raven and said.
"It will scare the children," Chen Luo emphasized.
"Putting aside whether this bar can accommodate children, aren't minors prohibited from drinking alcohol?"
"But we have more than just alcohol at home, so it's not a big problem," Chen Luo said.
"So, in short, my basic salary has increased from two work points to five work points, right? It's better than nothing, I guess," Raven said, arms crossed.
Although Chen Luo's increase wasn't significant, Raven wouldn't refuse free work points.
"On another note, Raven, is there anything you wish to fulfill?" Chen Luo asked curiously.
"... Inside the bar, just call me Xiola," Raven said after a pause.
"Xiola? Okay. By the way, how about Natasha?"
"Whatever, it's just a name anyway," Raven said nonchalantly.
"Then let's get back to your wish."
"My wish..." Xiola, who was wiping the cups, suddenly had a deep look in her eyes.
"To live a good life, that is my wish." After saying that, Xiola lowered her head in silence again.
"What a simple and unpretentious wish."
"The current plan is that after you go to World Serpent will fund the purchase of a seaside villa for me. Then, I'll use the remaining time to slowly save money to buy a small island in the distance and build a large villa." Perhaps because the atmosphere was better now, Xiola was willing to talk more.
"Sigh, I thought the World Serpent was going to give you a villa island." Chen Luo was taken aback.
"No, that's not it. Thanks to your Honkai Crystal Necklace, the children can occasionally have contact with people from the outside world. Although my dream is to buy a villa island, I won't let the children live in seclusion forever just because of my dream. So when Grey Serpent asked for a location, I chose a place by the sea that is still inhabited."
"There's a beach in the distance from that villa, and many people go there to play every summer, so the children probably won't be lonely. In spring, autumn, and winter, we can occasionally take them to the city, which is more than ten kilometers away, to play..."
Although Raven is currently facing Chen Luo sideways, making it impossible for Chen Luo to fully see the expression on Raven's face, he can only imagine that it is extremely gentle.
