Chen Luo snapped his fingers lightly.
Without any warning, the Little Evil God's body was instantly split in two, its lower snake tail severed. What's more, the severed tail was still wriggling, looking extremely bloody and grotesque.
"Can you hurry it up?" the Little Evil God urged, eyes still closed.
"It's already successful."
"Huh?" The Little Evil God blinked, then opened its eyes. Its lower body was indeed gone, but it wasn't panicking at all. After all, this had happened hundreds of times already.
As its snake tail was mostly severed, the Little Evil God's body began to regenerate, slowly growing back its original tail.
Seeing this, Mobius, who had only come to retrieve her belongings, suddenly's eyes lit up.
"Rapid healing?"
"What do you know? This is called hyper-regeneration. I'm not bragging, but even if I were thrown into a meat grinder, I'd revive in no time." Seeing Mobius's ignorance, the Little Evil God gave her the middle finger.
"That amazing?"
"Of course, I am a high-ranking demon from the Demon Realm," the Little Evil God proudly raised its head.
Meanwhile, Chen Luo forcibly held down the snake tail that kept twitching.
Strangely, the tail didn't bleed, as if the blood flow had been perfectly cut off at the moment of severance.
[Evil God's Tail] (Four-star material · Pseudo): The tail of a high-ranking demon from the Demon Realm, delicious when grilled or made into snake soup.
Price: 10 raw stones/jin
"..."
Wait, how much?
10 raw stones?
Damn it, even my cheapest amulet costs 10 consciousness points. You're an Evil God, and this is a four-star material!
Then Chen Luo saw a note.
(Note: When this material is outside the Demon Realm, it is just ordinary snake meat. When in the Demon Realm of this world, it will immediately be upgraded to a true four-star material. Consuming it will rapidly strengthen the body, grant power, and enhance magic, but carries the risk of demonization.)
"..."
Useless Little Evil God!
Chapter 54: [Little Evil God Flying Kick]
[Little Evil God Flying Kick] (Skill): This should have been the ultimate flying kick technique personally taught by the Queen of the Underworld in the Demon Realm. It takes 80 years to master, and a single kick could easily sink Tokyo. However, because the Little Evil God is too useless, it hasn't mastered it in a thousand years, and it even became distorted.
This skill deals moderate damage to ordinary life forms or buildings, making it a generally powerful kicking technique.
However, when the target is an angel or a celestial being, it immediately transforms into a rule-based kicking technique, dealing massive damage to angels or celestial beings and causing a period of magic suppression, rendering them powerless.
"..." Chen Luo fell silent after seeing this two-star commission reward skill.
If you say it's strong, the damage it deals to ordinary life forms or buildings is just average.
But if you say it's weak, it can deal massive damage to angels or celestial beings, even turning an angel into an ordinary person with a single kick.
This Little Evil God is truly outrageous.
Indeed, it's unwise to discuss combat power in a comedy anime.
But the problem is, where is Chen Luo going to find celestial beings?
"Hey, A Luo, aren't you going to check on Mobius? She's trying to buy snake meat from the Little Evil God. If you don't stop her quickly, what if she gets the snake meat and causes the timeline to collapse? Who knows what Mobius will do with that Evil God meat!"
While Chen Luo was spacing out, the Herrscher of Knowledge in his mind urged him.
"Don't worry, they won't succeed in the transaction," Chen Luo replied calmly.
"Can I buy your meat with those gacha toys or something? I'll definitely bring them to you tomorrow." Although Mobius didn't know much about gacha, Klein next to her knew a little.
"No, I have enough otherworldly collectibles. One set is enough," the Scum Snake shook its head.
"Then I can buy it with money."
"Oh, really? How much Japanese Yen are you two offering?" The Scum Snake's interest was piqued when Mobius mentioned money.
"What's Japanese Yen?" Mobius was a bit confused.
What is Japanese Yen?
"Japanese Yen is the currency issued by the country in the Far East. Your worlds are different, so how could the currencies be the same?" Chen Luo walked over at this moment.
The worldview and currency used in the Honkai Impact 3rd world were indeed the same as Chen Luo's world. At least, the 1000 Japanese Yen Chen Luo obtained showed no problems when tested with the simple counterfeit detection methods of his world.
But the problem was that the previous civilization was clearly different from the current one, at least in terms of currency.
"Then I'll buy it with gold," Mobius said after a moment of silence.
Gold should always be universally accepted, right?
"Gold is fine, but do you have a gold purchase receipt?" the Little Evil God asked Mobius after nodding.
"Gold purchase receipt?" Mobius was stunned again.
"Doctor, a gold purchase receipt is usually required when recycling gold at a gold shop to prove its legitimate source. But since we're from different worlds, a legitimate gold purchase receipt from our world might not be usable in yours," Klein whispered.
"However, some gold shops are willing to buy it back if you're willing to sell it at a low price. After all, even if it's stolen money, as long as the profit is high enough, someone will be willing to buy it back. It's just that the process is a bit troublesome." At this moment, Chen Luo suddenly spoke up in Mobius's defense.
"If that's the case, I'm willing to offer one kilogram of gold, no, two kilograms of gold. I just need to buy some meat." Mobius glanced at Chen Luo, who had just spoken favorably of it, and then looked at the Little Evil God.
"Ah, is it troublesome? Then forget it? If it's troublesome, I might as well ask Medusa for money directly." The Little Evil God thought for a moment and then shook its head, refusing.
Medusa was the Little Evil God's childhood friend. Her family was rich, and she never refused the Little Evil God's requests, making her a veritable automatic teller machine.
In reality, the Little Evil God's family was also quite wealthy.
"...Then I can exchange it with various supplies." Although Mobius didn't know who Medusa was, it was clear that this transaction had fallen through.
"No, the owner of this shop has already agreed to let me eat and drink here for free." The Little Evil God shook its head again.
Mobius looked at Chen Luo once more.
Chen Luo shrugged his shoulders and said, "I didn't know you wanted to buy the Evil God's meat too."
You can't blame me for this.
"Also, by the way, our shop is originally a place for free food and drinks. Even you didn't pay yesterday, did you?" Chen Luo added casually.
"Wait, then wouldn't I be at a loss?" The Little Evil God was stunned for a moment.
"No, how could you be at a loss? How about this, I can allow you to bring other people to the shop to eat and drink for free, how about that?" Chen Luo said to the Little Evil God.
"Hmm, this is acceptable. You are a good person, and I find you very pleasing to the eye." The Little Evil God patted Chen Luo on the shoulder.
If I bring Medusa to this magical shop where one can eat and drink for free, she will definitely thank me immensely. Then it will be even more convenient to get money from her in the future.
The effect of [Friend of the Non-Human] is already god-tier.
Perhaps Chen Luo has already been seen as a friend by the Little Evil God.
It's just that Chen Luo isn't happy at all, because becoming friends with the Little Evil God often means being exploited even more ruthlessly.
However, considering she might bring other customers, I'll forgive her.
"Oh, right, this should be yours. Here you go." Just as Chen Luo was about to go see Venti, he remembered something and returned an earring to Mobius.
This was what Mobius had dropped in the shop yesterday while shaking her wine glass and dancing.
To reiterate, Mobius's behavior when drunk was truly terrible.
However, Mobius, who had retrieved the earring, didn't even say thank you.
Mobius had originally come this time to retrieve the earring, but now it had a more important goal.
It was determined to obtain that Evil God's meat.
Such terrifying self-healing abilities, coupled with being a special material from another world...
The second Hyper-Evolution Surgery had been successfully completed, proving the success of the Hyper-Evolution Surgery.
Mobius had originally planned to perform the third Hyper-Evolution Surgery on itself within these two days, but unexpectedly gained a windfall.
Since it couldn't obtain the meat from this Evil God, it had to obtain it from the shop owner.
After all, the latter had just acquired such a large piece of snake meat, and Mobius only needed a small portion.
Mobius's gaze fell upon Chen Luo, who was currently conversing with Venti.
"Aloya, can we discuss something?" Venti said to Chen Luo.
"Just say what you need to say. We're friends, aren't we?"
"If we're friends, then stop deliberately farming commissions from me, okay? In a couple of days, I'll bring you a customer who's easier to farm commissions from. Can you let me off the hook?" Venti sighed.
Originally, Venti had planned to bring the person today, which was the reason for Venti's late arrival. However, as Venti was preparing to find that person tonight, Venti suddenly remembered that the person seemed to be out on a mission in Mondstadt City.
Chapter 55: [Mobius's Vow]
Venti didn't really mind Chen Luo taking on its commissions. After all, it was a fair trade: Venti provided wishes, and Chen Luo provided wine. There was no problem with that.
But deliberately farming commissions was where Chen Luo was in the wrong.
Occasionally, Chen Luo would suddenly exclaim that he would stop the wine supply, and although Venti knew he wouldn't, it would still be startled.
"Of course, no problem. But don't you really want to try wine brewed by the Anemo Archon? It's a golden opportunity that won't come again. Once this village is gone, there'll be no more shops like this." Chen Luo agreed to the request in the previous second and in the next was already promoting his wine.
"...No."
Venti had just sent Chen Luo a task, but Chen Luo hadn't accepted it.
Are you kidding me? How could I give up on such a useful tool like Venti for just 10 Primogems?
When you made me your tool to defeat Stormterror in the game, now you get to experience what it's like to be treated as a tool!
"Alo, that Dr. Mobius seems to be thinking about buying snake meat from you. 'Snake snake buys snake meat,' doesn't that sound interesting?" The Herrscher of Knowledge's voice echoed in Chen Luo's ears.
"Want to buy snake meat? Coincidentally, I want to sell it. After spending so many things, I only managed to get an ingredient that can only be used in the demon realm." Chen Luo felt heartbroken as he said this.
However, Chen Luo failed to reflect that the things he used to buy this snake meat were merely a trivial collection and some raw stones worth less than one Primogem.
"Dr. Mobius, is it? If you have anything to discuss, please come up to the second floor with me." Chen Heng suddenly produced two drinks and handed one of them to Mobius.
"Don't worry, it's not alcohol. Dr. Mobius, your tolerance for alcohol is quite impressive. I wouldn't dare serve you alcohol while we're discussing matters."
Seeing Mobius's wary gaze, Chen Luo felt like laughing.
"...Alright," Mobius finally took the drink.
Just like how Mobius couldn't always refuse the alcohol at investor parties, it was probably normal to drink when discussing business deals.
Although Mobius always thought it was a bad habit.
With that, after settling his future guests, Chen Luo took Mobius up to the second floor.
After all, the business they were about to discuss was likely to be quite significant.
"After I got drunk yesterday, I was here..." Mobius began, finding a table on the second floor and sitting down.
"You did indeed come here after getting drunk yesterday. At your strong insistence, we served you several drinks. However, seeing how heavily intoxicated you were, we added some special items to the drinks to help sober you up."
"Then... I didn't do anything disrespectful yesterday, did I?" Mobius asked again.
"Of course not, Dr. Mobius. You were just hugging my arm, calling me Klein, singing and dancing, and insisting I play dice games with you. Other than that, there was nothing else," Chen Luo said warmly.
"..." Mobius fell silent.
Mobius had a general idea of his behavior when drunk, but the problem was, why had he mistaken this young man for Klein?
"Alright, let's not talk about other things. Since you could bring me upstairs, it means you saw through my intentions. Just name your price. What do you want in exchange for a portion of the snake meat you have?" Dr. Mobius clearly didn't want to have a friendly, cordial exchange with Chen Luo on this matter.
Who would want to discuss their embarrassing drunken past?
"Huh? You mean you want to buy the snake meat, Ms. Mobius? Not delete your embarrassing recorded history? Then it seems I misunderstood," Chen Luo said with a look of surprise.
"Embarrassing recorded history?" Mobius's heart suddenly sank.
