Their Commission Rewards Are Not Right

Chen Luo felt that his talent awakening came at just the right time, before the summer vacation. This would allow him to immerse himself more in doing tasks, without having to give up certain tasks out of fear of waking up late the next day and being late for class.

Chen Luo had a premonition that this summer vacation might be the most magical one he had ever had.

Including, but not limited to, saving the world.

Probably...

Indeed, saving the world in high school was the true romance for a man.

"Sigh..."

Just as Chen Luo was thinking about how he would entice Venti to drink the wine brewed by the Anemo Archon that night, a sigh came from his ear.

Chen Luo turned his head and saw his deskmate sighing there.

"What's wrong with you again?" Chen Luo whispered.

Chen Luo's Chinese teacher was a very peculiar teacher. His teaching level was very high, and his teaching experience was very deep; he was a golden teacher at the school. However, he had a strange habit: he never managed what the students were doing during class.

This led to a problem: classes that were originally orderly and willing to listen to lectures would see their Chinese scores improve, while classes that were not willing to listen and were more chaotic would see their Chinese scores decline.

His teaching ability was sufficient, but his awareness in managing students was not.

Because of this, Chen Luo's small movements while talking in class were not at all abrupt within the entire class.

"I'm worrying about life," Yun Xia said after sighing.

"You're worrying about life too?" Chen Luo was stunned.

Chen Luo originally thought that situations like his own, where the family was quite wealthy but the child had to live a hard life, only applied to him. He didn't expect it to apply to Yun Xia as well.

Yun Xia's family must be rich, because she took a stretched limousine to school, and she had bodyguards accompanying her.

If you said she wasn't rich, Chen Luo wouldn't believe it.

"I'm not like you. I don't have to worry about not having enough to eat. It's just a family dispute," Yun Xia sighed again as she looked at Chen Luo, who was genuinely concerned about her.

"Chen Luo, Chen Luo, why did you have to be so enthusiastic about helping others when you had nothing better to do?" Yun Xia now felt like strangling Chen Luo.

Why go be a caregiver on Saturdays and Sundays? Wouldn't it be more enjoyable to stay home playing games, watching TV, binge-watching dramas, and variety shows every day?

"Uh, well... how should I answer you to make you satisfied?" Chen Luo asked, seeing that the other person was in a bad mood.

"Chen Luo, Kang Ning wants you to help her fold a paper pineapple. She'll pay for the materials..." Chen Luo's front-row deskmate turned and whispered to him.

[Ding! You have a new commission!]

[Charm Test]: Because Chen Luo, who was called Chen the Great Philanthropist yesterday, refused a request unprecedentedly, someone wants to test their charm. Please help them fold an extremely troublesome paper pineapple.

Reward: 5 raw stones

Difficulty: One Star

"Then please tell her that if she just wants to show off her charm meaninglessly, she can scram." Chen Luo directly reached out with one hand and pushed back the head of his front-row deskmate who was looking back.

The so-called paper pineapple was a troublesome thing that might not even be finished after spending a whole day on it.

No one in their right mind would earn these 5 raw stones.

I, Chen Luo, am a businessman. Why would I care about these 5 raw stones?

"Chen Luo, Chen Luo, I'll wipe the blackboard later. Can you help me wipe it? My stomach hurts." Chen Luo's back-row deskmate poked Chen Luo's back.

[Ding! You have a new commission!]

[Wipe the Blackboard]: The other person's stomach hurts. Please help wipe the blackboard.

Reward: 5 raw stones

Difficulty: Zero Star

"No problem," Chen Luo nodded.

Alright, Chen Luo took back his previous words. Five raw stones were actually quite enticing.

After all, wiping the blackboard was something that could be done in half a minute.

Moreover, the other person genuinely had a stomachache, which could be seen from the task description.

Chapter 37: Unknown Difficulty Mission

"Why are you looking at me like that?" When Chen Luo agreed to the request from the person behind him, he turned around and saw Yun Xia staring at him blankly.

"You've changed. You've really changed. You never refused anyone's requests before."

"Ummm, about that, maybe I've opened up after being beaten by my cousin?" Chen Luo pondered for a moment and then shifted the blame to the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Don't ask, just ask and it's the Herrscher of Knowledge's fault.

Therefore, no matter the cost, humanity will definitely defeat Honkai.

And speaking of which, Chen Luo regretted it a little. He should have introduced the Herrscher of Knowledge as his cousin back then.

A miscalculation, a miscalculation.

"What, am I disappointing you?" Chen Luo asked casually.

"No, no, no. I prefer the current you. At least now you won't suffer too much from wanting to help others. Since you've opened up, can you grant me one thing?" Yun Xia propped her face on her hand and looked directly into Chen Luo's eyes.

"What is it?" Chen Luo asked, a little confused.

After all, in the entire class, almost everyone had asked him for help at least 10 times, but this was the first time Yun Xia had made a request.

Chen Luo decided that if Yun Xia's request wasn't too much, he would definitely agree.

"From now on, don't go to the hospital as a caregiver on Saturdays and Sundays. The hospital environment is dirty and messy, and you might catch various diseases. What if some disgusting woman infects you with something? It's harmful to your body. Especially stay away from any woman surnamed Yun," Yun Xia pleaded earnestly and with great sincerity.

Damn, this request is too much.

If I don't go to the hospital as a caregiver, you'll give me 100 raw stones.

[Ding! You have a new commission!]

[Stay Away from the Hospital]: Do not work as a caregiver in the hospital on Saturdays and Sundays, and stay away from all women surnamed Yun in this world, except for Yun Xia.

Reward: 1500 raw stones + Random Special Card (2-star to 4-star item)

Difficulty: Unknown (Extremely likely to cause some uncontrollable and extremely significant impact!!!)

"..." Chen Luo admitted that his heart sank when he saw the "Unknown" difficulty marked in red.

What the hell, this is already a 4-star difficulty or higher?

A 4-star difficulty mission is 1000 raw stones, so 1500 is definitely 4-star or higher, possibly even 5-star.

"May I ask if you know a woman named Yun Lian'er?" Chen Luo asked abruptly after holding back for a while.

"...No," Yun Xia's face showed displeasure.

"..." You definitely know her, right? You absolutely know her!

"Then... let's shake hands." Chen Luo extended his right hand.

"Huh?" Yun Xia was uncharacteristically stunned by Chen Luo's sudden action, and for some reason, her face also flushed slightly.

"Um, what, what are you doing? I think we... we... do we have to start this intensely?"

"I just want us to shake hands like friends. What are you thinking?" Chen Luo suspected she was overthinking things, but he didn't know what she was thinking.

Chen Luo suddenly realized how perfect the Herrscher of Knowledge's authority was.

"Oh," Yun Xia said, relieved upon hearing Chen Luo's words, but a hint of disappointment accompanied her relief.

Yun Xia perfunctorily shook Chen Luo's right hand and then slumped back onto her desk.

Since Chen Luo hadn't responded just now, it meant his proposal was likely to be rejected.

The handshake just now was probably a way to change the subject.

If Chen Luo could hear her thoughts, he could assure her that the handshake was definitely not a way to change the subject.

It was a way to become friends.

Yun Xia

[Clow Card Master] (S-class talent): A supreme mage who controls 53 Clow Cards. When she creates her own 54th Clow Card, she will be transferred to become a Sealing Witch, capable of sealing anything, including skills and spells, into cards.

Price: 6500 raw stones (Original price: 10000 raw stones)

[Netherworld Staff]: A magic staff exclusive to Yun Xia. It liberates Clow Cards through the Netherworld Staff and possesses extremely strong resilience and attack power.

[Linguistics Mastery]: ...

Good heavens, I'm speechless. Are S-class talents this common in this world?

Chen Luo currently had Little Insight in his family slot.

In his friends slot, he had Venti, Yun Lian'er, Yun Xia, Theresa, and Himeko.

Among these 6 people, 4 of them possessed items and talents with a price of 10,000 raw stones or more.

Chen Luo was beginning to suspect if the average combat power in his world was too high.

Could anyone he picked up casually rival the Herrscher of Knowledge in value?

Or was he just too unlucky to be surrounded by such influential figures?

10,000 raw stones, 10,000 raw stones...

That would be enough for Chen Luo to draw another accessory or a 5-star item.

That was, assuming Chen Luo's luck wasn't so bad that he hit the pity limit.

Originally, Chen Luo felt that if he caused trouble or offended someone in other worlds in the future, he could at least return home, to this unremarkable world, to find peace of mind.

Now, it seemed that the messy place of Honkai Impact 3rd was safer than this world.

"My dear Miss Yun, do you really not know anyone named Yun Lian'er?" Chen Luo asked quietly, hiding his face with a book and turning his head.

"No, I don't. I told you I don't know her, I don't know her."

"You really don't know her?"

"Chen Luo, what exactly do you want?" Yun Xia glared at Chen Luo angrily.

He didn't agree to my request, and he still has the nerve to bother me?

"It's just that I couldn't agree to your request earlier, so I really want to compensate you. Do you have any requests for me now?" Chen Luo asked cautiously.

Chen Luo's intuition told him that now was a good time to activate the commission.

"My request is for you to shut up and don't bother me until I speak to you," Yun Xia shot Chen Luo a glare.

[Ding! You have a new commission!]

[Don't Bother Me]: Do not speak to Yun Xia until she initiates conversation with you.

Reward: 10 raw stones per hour. (Maximum cap of 10 hours)

Difficulty: Starless

Hmm, from this commission, it's clear that Yun Xia and Yun Lian'er don't get along very well.

Chen Luo thought to himself.

Chapter 38: What Brought Them Together?

"Hey, Chen Luo, what's your deal? Just because I scolded you a bit in the first class, you're not going to talk to me anymore, right? If you've got the guts, don't talk to me for the rest of your life!"

During the last class on Monday, Yun Xia looked at Chen Luo, who hadn't spoken to her all day, and felt an urge to strangle him.

Why was such a big guy so petty?

"..." Chen Luo glanced at the time on his talent panel.

9 hours and 05 minutes.
