[Loli, Submit to Me]!

If he knows even such trivial matters, how much more does he not know about the affairs of the World Serpent?

This solidified Raven's resolve to absolutely avoid any involvement with the other party.

What? They're recommending you to the World Serpent?

Don't even think about it.

If the recommended member joins World Serpent and becomes an officer, the recommender will indeed receive a bonus. However, given Chen Luo's unpredictable nature, Raven suspects that if he actually recommends him to World Serpent and something goes wrong, wouldn't he have his salary deducted?

We can't afford to mess with them.

At worst, I'll just forget about the bonus that the Jackal promised.

Standing opposite Raven Chen Luo seemed to have read Raven's mind. After a moment's thought, he said again, "Alright, alright, let's not talk about the World Serpent anymore. How about this, I'll hire you to help me hunt down the Militants in this city?"

Chen Luo has come to a temporary understanding that his hard work in trying to join the World Serpent might have backfired on Raven. After all, while Raven does like money, he values his life even more.

So it's better to change your mindset.

"Huh?" The Raven was taken aback.

What the heck is this "hunting Militants" thing? If you were saying that Raven was hunting Militants in other cities that occasionally experience Honkai, then Raven could understand it as a way to maintain the stability of the city. But this is a city that has experienced its Third Honkai Outbreak.

Militants everywhere here, what are you going to hunt?

"That's right, you heard me correctly, it's about hunting Militants. For every Militants you hunt down, I'll give you 100,000 yen, no matter what kind of Militants it is, it's a guaranteed 100,000 yen," Chen Luo said directly.

Aren't you a mercenary? Fine, I'll hire you to hunt down the Militants in this city.

Of course, this is on the premise that the other party has been added to the team first.

Although squad members only receive crystal rewards and not achievement kill count or Honkai Energy Adaptation rewards after killing Militants, is that a big problem? Not really.

If it weren't for the fact that there was no one else to hire in this dilapidated city, Chen Luo would have directly hired 100,000 special forces soldiers and massacred Changkong City.

Unfortunately, Chen Luo discovered that he had no one he could use.

There's no way to hire ordinary mercenaries; if they come to this city, they'll probably just turn into Militants. And it's even less likely that the people from Schicksal will help Chen Luo, since Schicksal is still sending people to capture him.

St. Freya Academy is the most suitable candidate, but it is quite difficult because Chen Luo did not have the means to persuade St. Freya Academy to run the city that was experiencing the Third Honkai Outbreak and slaughter the Militants.

If you were to ask Deli and Himeko to help with the killings, they would naturally agree and help Chen Luo.

But it's impossible to expect Theresa and the others to give up their proper jobs and come here to engage in "boring" killing, right?

You can ask them to help kill 100 or 200, but killing them for three days... emmm, no way.

As for Venti... Chen Luo was afraid that Venti would become the Herrscher of Wind after arriving in this world.

Although the probability is low, it's not zero.

If Chen Luo wanted to borrow the Gnosis, let's set aside whether the Gnosis would still be useful in this world, and whether Venti would even be willing to lend it. What if, upon arriving in this world, the Gnosis suddenly became the Herrscher Core of the Wind? How would Chen Luo repay Venti then?

Therefore, Chen Luo discovered that it was really difficult to exploit loopholes to gain points.

So Chen Luo gradually gave up on this idea.

However, the Raven in front of us is quite a useful tool.

They're powerful, and right here in front of us. We can hire them; all we need to do is pay them. Why not?

Raven probably wouldn't care too much about which organization the employer came from, especially since Chen Luo didn't belong to any organization, so the other party should be quite happy.

"One Militants, 100,000 yen, do you have that much money? And what do you want to do with the Militants?" Raven was stunned when he heard Chen Luo's words.

One Militants is worth 100,000 yen, which is equivalent to 815.1 US dollars. 10,000 Militants would be worth 8.1 million US dollars.

Most importantly, with Raven's strength, killing an ordinary Militants would be a piece of cake.

This reward was undoubtedly very tempting for the Raven.

"Of course, it's to restore peace and order to Changkong City. With so many Militants loitering around here, what if they threaten the survivors who might still be alive?" Chen Luo said confidently.

Of course, even Chen Luo himself didn't believe what he said.

"Do you really have that much money?" Raven looked at Chen Luo with some suspicion.

According to the information Raven, Chen Luo was Traveler from Different World. So how could he have so much of this world's currency?

"There weren't any at first, but after looting the vault and the bank, didn't we have some? Look, this is the result." Chen Luo waved his hand, and countless gold bars suddenly appeared from mid-air, piling up in front of Chen Luo.

Upon seeing these Golden Flash bars, the Raven said its eyes were almost blinded by the light.

But then the other party made another large gesture, and all the gold bars disappeared.

"Vault? Bank? Damn it, how come I didn't think of that!" Upon hearing Chen Heng's words, Raven couldn't help but slap his thigh in regret.

If I were smarter, when everyone was almost wiped out during the Third Honkai Outbreak, I would have gone to the vault or the bank instead. What would I have been working so hard for then?

But it's too late to say anything now. Since this despicable stranger has said it, it means that almost everything has ended up in his pocket.

A despicable outsider.

And this kind of opportunity probably only comes once in a lifetime, right?

"You know I'm Traveler from Different World, so this money is useless to me. How about it? Want to be hired? Over $800 for a Militants, and it's just a matter of you shooting him. Plus, if you kill enough, I'll give you double the bonus," Chen Luo said to Raven in a tempting tone.

As Chen Luo said, gold is really useless to Chen Luo. Chen Luo's family is rich. Although he can't be called the richest man in the city, Chen Luo really doesn't need too much money.

Now is the time for this looted gold to come in handy.

It has to be said that Raven was tempted by Chen Luo's offer, but then Raven subconsciously glanced at the somewhat bewildered pink-haired little girl holding his hand.

Money is certainly extremely important to Raven, the mercenary, but there are always things in life that are more important than money.

"If 100,000 yen isn't enough, how about adding a little more? How about 1,000 US dollars? Kill a Militants, and I'll give you 1,000 US dollars." Seeing that Raven was still somewhat hesitant, Chen Luo tempted her again.

If this were the old Chen Luo, he would have rushed to take the job as soon as he heard this number.

$1,000, and that's just for one Militants.

If you work even a little harder, you could earn $10 million a day.

But Chen Luo felt he wasn't losing out at all, because if Raven accepted the commission and formed a team with Chen Luo would get at least 2.5 crystals for every Militants the Raven killed.

$1,000 equals 2.5 crystals. Although this business seems distorted from any perspective, it's not a problem for Chen Luo, who controls a gold mine.

Crystals and Primogem are the truly versatile materials.

Even without this treasury, Chen Luo could have exchanged at least $1 billion for a string of Three-Colored Dumpling made from 5 Primogem with Otto.

Do you want a food that can restore life?

For Schicksal, compared to the annual research expenditure, $1 billion is just a drop in the ocean.

Otto would naturally be willing to pay that price.

Therefore, gold and money are no longer Chen Luo's ultimate pursuit.

Using these external things to obtain crystals is what Chen Luo urgently needs right now.

Chen Luo's strength is ultimately limited, so if he could hire a Raven, the situation would be much better.

A rough estimate suggests that the Raven could earn Chen Luo at least a few thousand crystals.

Hearing Chen Luo increase his stakes again, Raven was even more tempted, but feeling the warmth of the child in her Raven, she quickly calmed down.

What will Little Kong do if he goes to hunt down Militants?

If the other party were to die by accident while it was leaving, the Raven really didn't know if it would regret it.

"Well, how about this? Besides a thousand dollars per Militants, I'll also help you set up a survivor base. What do you think?" Chen Luo stroked his chin after seeing the direction Raven's gaze was directed at, and suddenly suggested.

"Huh?" Raven suddenly raised its head upon hearing Chen Luo's words.

"Don't look so surprised. Why do you think I want to get rid of the Militants? Besides disliking Militants, it's also partly for the sake of the city's survivors."

"And what do you think of this stronghold? A commercial building, a commercial building rich in resources, isn't it perfect as a survivor base? And because I killed the Militants yesterday, there are very few Militants and Honkai Beasts around, so it's quite safe for now," Chen Heng said, pointing to the camp he had built.

"Did you cause the explosion here yesterday?" Raven suddenly asked.

The four mushroom clouds that suddenly appeared in the city yesterday left a deep impression on Raven.

"That's not important. What's important is that this survivor base is absolutely perfect. All we need to do next is seal off the entrance at the bottom of the building," Chen Luo said.

Such a high-level building naturally has excellent security measures, so the bottom of the building has a metal door that is very sturdy. That's why Chen Luo used this place as a survivor base.

Chapter 91 [Loli, Submit to Me]!

As Raven listened to Chen Luo's story, his gaze towards Chen Luo became somewhat strange.

What exactly does this Traveler from Different World want? He's asking me to Militants and then saying he'll help me build a survivor base.

This person is really strange.

"The little girl next to you should also be an incomplete awakener of the Stigmata, right? If I'm not mistaken, she's in the same situation as Miyu. The incomplete awakening of the Stigmata allowed them to survive the Third Honkai Outbreak, but because of this, they cannot leave an environment with sufficient Honkai energy, otherwise they will experience withdrawal symptoms." Chen Luo suddenly pointed to Little Kong, who was being led by the Raven.

"In this Changkong City, teeming with Militants and Honkai Beasts, you're wandering aimlessly with a little girl. Are you harming her or saving her? You really need a safe base right now. So, how about I help you build a survivor base to take in children like her and Meiyou?" Chen Luo suddenly asked.

Here, Chen Luo made a conceptual substitution.

Originally, Chen Luo said he would help the other party build a survivor base, which was a form of payment. But now it has become a question of whether or not Chen Luo should help build a survivor base.

Such small, inconspicuous changes are certainly not useless, because...

"Okay, I accept your employment, but at the same time, you have to help me build a survivor base." Raven glanced at Little Kong beside him, then at Chen Luo, and finally nodded.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Nest]: Help Raven establish a safe survivor base in the dangerous Changkong City, which is full of Militants and Honkai Beasts.

Rewards: 500 Primogem + [Raven Affinity +30] + Random Items

Difficulty: 3 stars

(Note: Maliciously boosting commissions and misrepresenting the facts, typical of you)

"..." Chen Luo looked at the things in parentheses on the talent panel with a conflicted expression.

Why does this talent panel seem so much more powerful after coming to the Honkai Impact 3rd World? Is it just not used to the new environment?

But it's not a big problem.

As long as I can complete quests and collect Primogem, that's fine.

"Welcome to the Little Island Pop-Pop Raven Squad." Chen Luo stepped forward and extended his right hand to the Raven.

"Hmm? What's that name?" Raven, shaking hands with Chen Luo briefly before protesting the strange name.

"You're Raven, and I'm Island Boom. So our team name is Island Boom Raven," Chen Luo explained with a smile, his expression unchanged.

"... Although this name sounds awful, you're the employer, so you get to decide." Although Raven subconsciously felt that the name was very unlucky and even disgusted her, Chen Luo was rich nonetheless.

[Ding! "Raven" has joined the "Little Island Pop-Pop Raven Squad".]

"Since this survivor base was built for you, how about you name it yourself?" Chen Luo said to Raven.

"Hmm, should I name it? Let's call it... Nest." Raven looked at the furnishings in the survivor base, thought for a moment, and then said.

"But isn't this floor a bit too high? Why choose such a high floor as a landing spot?" Raven couldn't help but ask.

"Well, who knows if Changkong City might be flooded by seawater? If the Honkai causes the local water level to rise, wouldn't it be more convenient to place our foothold on a high floor in advance?" Chen Luo said casually.

Chen Luo wasn't just saying this casually, because the plot shows that three years later, Changkong City was indeed flooded. This was because the Honkai energy content was too high, and Changkong City was a coastal city, so many places were flooded. That's why Chen Luo chose a higher floor as his base.

"..." Raven could not deny Chen Luo's ingenious idea.

Although Raven felt that Chen Luo was showing too much concern, who could predict what would happen during the Honkai? So it couldn't be said that Chen Luo's concern was wrong.

"Alright, Little Kong, we'll be living here from today onwards." Raven patted the head of the little girl next to her.

"Miyu, you have a partner starting today." Chen Luo patted the head of the little girl he had rescued.

"Okay, big brother. By the way, big brother, how's the thing I asked you to do? Have you found my parents yet?" The little girl looked up at Chen Luo with an expectant expression.

"Well, I did go to ME Company, but I didn't see your parents who had become Militants there. So maybe your parents are still alive somewhere, just far away." Chen Luo paused for a moment, then patted the other person's head and said.

The other person's parents did not become Militants, but were directly corrupted and died. However, such a painful topic was still beyond the capacity of such a young child to bear.

Chen Luo does indeed really like Primogem, but this mission isn't time-limited, so... let's talk about the truth in a few days.

"You must live well here. Maybe one day you'll see your parents again," Chen Luo said earnestly.
