And which god was it that was slaughtered? That should be pretty obvious, right?

Chen Li looked at the Little Evil God with a puzzled expression, not understanding why she could die so many times and still keep courting death.

"If possible, I'll take all of these. They're a free gift from me." Chen Li put all the items away and then took out 50 Starstones, handing them to Garden Lily Bell and explaining the uses of Starstones.

Chen Li's Starsea Trove has a limited pool, but you must have Miracle Beacon to access it.

To create Miracle Beacon, a Miracle Card must have been formed in that world.

In the Serendipitous Encounter World, this privilege can be extended to simply forging a Miraculous Item.

While it's not possible to make the Evil God World a fixed limited pool, choosing the Honkai: Star Rail world as the limited pool will actually allow you to get more good items.

"For example, you could win a smart robot, a refrigerator, a color TV, or even Star Destroyer!" Chen Li enthusiastically promoted his Starstones.

Garden Lily Bell's eyes lit up.

As a garden of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), Lily Bell doesn't mind adding another Star Destroyer to her collection.

So handsome!

Chen Li also didn't lose out.

Among the newbie rewards Chen Li receives is a skill called "Stacking," which allows him to stack the brightness of the same attribute.

Although the conditions are extremely stringent, such as the same term must come from the same source, they are just right for the current situation.

Although the weapons in front of us are all different, the reason for the "God Slayer" entry on them is the same—they are all slaying Little Evil God.

Therefore, it fully meets the requirements!

It's a bit unfair to the little Little Evil God, but he hasn't said anything, so it's not a big problem.

"Then do you see if there's anything else in the house that you can sell?" Garden Lily Bell continued to ask.

"Although your tone makes me feel like I'm a secondhand goods recycler, there is something I really want... Are you selling your eye mask?" Chen Li hesitated before speaking.

"Eye mask?"

"Yes, the eye patch. You probably don't have any of those 'Minotaur never remove their masks' settings, right? I was just curious, your eye patch was very bright to me, and there seemed to be some interesting entries on it. Can I take a look?" Chen Li asked.

If it doesn't cost a lot of money, Chen Li doesn't mind collecting some really cool terms, because you never know when a term might come in handy.

Without much hesitation, Garden Lily Bell took off her blindfold and handed it to Chen Li.

Only after Chen Li obtains the blindfold will he be able to more clearly identify what the words on it actually mean.

[Seal]

An entry so bright it almost blinded Chen Li.

To put it bluntly, the brightness of the seal on this eye mask is no less than the brightness of the "Abundance" inscription on the ear of wheat that the Aeon of Abundance plucked from behind him.

But Chen Li watched as the Garden Lily Bell played with the Starstones as if nothing was wrong, and didn't think there was anything strange about her after she removed the eye patch.

On the contrary, after removing her blindfold, Garden Lily Bell is also a rare beauty.

"Why would a normal person cover their eyes with an eye patch every day? See? Your eye patch is just as weird as these weapons," the Little Evil God spouted nonsense from the side.

Garden Lily Bell clenched her fists.

It's hardened; its fists have hardened.

Then Garden Lily Bell picked up the chainsaw.

"Stand here and don't move. I'll go cut some snake meat for you as a gift." After speaking to Chen Li in a friendly manner, Garden Lily Bell punched the Little Evil God, making him kneel down, and dragged him by the tail towards the kitchen.

"Little Evil God..." Medusa followed in with a hint of panic.

"Hmm... I think I understand." Upon hearing the Little Evil God's words, Chen Li suddenly realized something.

This eye patch is indeed an ordinary eye patch, but it seals the left eye of Garden Lily Bell of this world (sometimes she also wears it on her right eye).

The seal here does not refer to "restraint," but rather to "covering."

But tell me, isn't this a seal?

The seal is a very useful term, and given its high brightness, if properly combined, creating One-star Artifact is a natural outcome, and it might even be able to challenge for Two-star Artifact.

While waiting for Garden Lily Bell to prepare a gift for him, Chen Li's gaze swept around Garden Lily Bell's room, looking for anything else with a very bright and prominent title.

You might even find a bargain.

However, things were clearly not as wonderful as Chen Li had imagined; the items in Garden Lily Bell's home were indeed all ordinary items.

After Garden Lily Bell came out of the kitchen, she was followed by a little Little Evil God who looked completely drained, and Medusa seemed to be quite frightened.

"A gift to mark our meeting." Garden Lily Bell tossed a sack of unidentified objects to Chen Li.

Chen Li picked it up and looked inside, and saw a large pile of snake meat.

"Thank you. This is the price for this eye mask. The [Sealing] attribute on it is very bright and useful." Chen Li paid another 50 Starstones.

Although Chen Li could have bought the eye patch for 10 or even fewer Starstones, a pleasant trading atmosphere is one of the foundations for achieving a larger deal.

There are so many good things in this world, so it's okay to invest a little more.

Therefore, Chen Li couldn't understand why he was labeled a "shady businessman."

Extraction the entry for "unscrupulous merchant"...

Progress: 25/100 (Progress can be increased when acquiring extremely valuable items at the lowest possible cost)

What? You're saying this shady businessman's progress increased because he spent 300,000 yen on Angel Halo?

Oh, that's alright then.

They are indeed unscrupulous merchants.

That's undeniable.

"Although I didn't get the Star Destroyer, it seems I did get a mech." After getting Starstones again, under Chen Li's guidance, Garden Lily Bell used up all 100 Starstones in a ten-pull lottery.

This time, it seems that Garden Lily Bell has drawn something extraordinary.

"Let me see? Holy crap, Father?" When Chen Li saw the robot in Garden Lily Bell's hand, Chen Li immediately uttered a curse from Honkai Impact Honkai Impact 3rd.

Isn't this the Father from Honkai Impact 3rd whose progress is always 95%?

If the item extracted using the Starstones is too large, far exceeding the limit that the Starsea Trove Cave, which is half a meter in diameter, can accommodate, the item will be temporarily shrunk. This shrunk state will last for up to one day.

However, a person who sees an object can vaguely perceive how big it is.

"Ahem, if you get tired of this robot, Lily Bell, you can sell it back to me. I'll take anything with valuable entries or that's the right size to fit in your mouth and is very clean," Chen Li said.

After touching the Father, Chen Li could see a rather peculiar entry on the other side—[To be continued]

It's strange, but also strangely interesting.

"Recycle with Starstones?"

"That's right."

"But I'd rather have Star Destroyer," Garden Lily Bell said, stroking her chin.

"It can be exchanged," Chen Li said after a moment of silence.

"Can it really be exchanged?"

"But one Father is certainly not enough."

"No problem, I'll save up some more." Garden Lily Bell nodded.

"Are there any other ways to earn Starstones?"

"Not yet, subsequent features are under development," Chen Li shook his head.

"I thought I could trade snake meat for Starstones." Garden Lily Bell glanced at the Little Evil God with regret.

"Huh!" The Little Evil God's hair stood on end from that glance.

Chapter 105 Is it wrong for me, Sirin, to just want a pair of scissors?!

"Sigh, Qingque, where do you think I should get a Star Destroyer?" Chen Li Qingque casually, propping his chin up as he sat in the library of the Tai Bu Division.

"Hehehe..." Qingque remained silent, only laughing foolishly.

"What are you laughing at? You're practically drooling." Chen Li flicked Qingque's forehead with his finger.

"It's like this, when I went to the General's Mansion with your glasses, I happened to run into the General's Mansion Great Augur there." Qingque wiped her mouth, not finding any drool, but Qingque didn't care.

"Then what?"

"It feels so good to be served tea and water by the Great Augur and to be so caring." Qingque started grinning foolishly again.

That's it?

"Of course, that's not all. The Great Augur even played Emperor's Jade Cards with me. I won big and had a blast!"

"... You didn't gamble, did you?" Chen Li asked tentatively.

"No, what's wrong?"

"You scared me!" Chen Li breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why are you so scared?" Qingque asked, puzzled.

"Qingque, don't forget, I'm currently in disguise, but I'll eventually reveal my true colors. If you beat the Taibu to the point where you even lose your socks, then once I'm exposed, you can expect Fu Xuan to send you to clean up the entire Tai Bu Division's mess," Chen Li warned.

"... I almost forgot about that." Qingque felt a wave of fear as she recalled it.

"In short, it's a good thing that Fu Xuan didn't lose so much that he had to give you his pants back."

"..." by Qingque.

"Qingque, why aren't you saying anything?"

"I'm thinking..." Qingque hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Forget it, stop talking. You look like you've caused trouble. Don't try to take the blame. I won't take the fall." Before Qingque could finish speaking, Chen Li cast a shield around himself and moved to the side, indicating that he had nothing to do with Qingque.

"No! Li Bao, save me!" Qingque immediately hugged Chen Li's leg and burst into tears.

"... It's hopeless, rest in peace." Chen Li smiled and patted the sparrow's head, then said nothing more.

"Tonic Medicine! Save me! I'd give a fortune for a horse bone! Buy a horse bone!" Qingque clung to Chen Li's thigh, refusing to leave.

"Alright, let me ask you first, what exactly did you do?" Chen Li asked after thinking for a moment.

"It's nothing, I just called out a few times... Little Xuanzi."

"... If that's all there is to it, it's not a big deal. I have a plan that can keep you safe."

"What method?" Qingque was overjoyed upon seeing this.

"Wouldn't it be enough if you just caused another big disaster, so that Fu Xuan would temporarily forget about the little trouble you caused?"

"Ah?"

"Don't worry, although it sounds like a disaster, if handled properly, you won't be criticized; in fact, you'll be cleared of wrongdoing. Don't worry, don't worry, it's just that you might get a lot of criticism at the time. I've got you covered, really."

"... Alright then." Although Qingque felt that Chen Li's words were somewhat unreliable, she could still detect a sense of sincerity in them.

After comforting Qingque, Chen Li began to nibble on the Divine Body Amber that Chen Li Qingque brought back from the General's Mansion.

It was a piece of Amber the size of a washbasin, its color gleaming alluringly in the light.

Although the Amber that fell from Amber King's body when he swung his hammer sounded a bit like Amber King's dandruff, Chen Li, who took a bite, briefly chose to lose his memory.

It tastes great, and it gives a lot of Attribute Points!

After taking a bite, Chen Li put the Divine Body Amber away again.

"Hmm, since you ate it, why didn't you finish it?" Qingque asked, puzzled.

"Oh, because the amount of enhancement I gain from the first bite of an item is already fixed. Eating more only increases my resistance to that item and my special attack against it. The effect of the Divine Body Amber is quite unique, so I don't really need that resistance," Chen Li said.

"But... what use are you to keeping it?"

"When we sell it to the Interastral Peace Corporation, we'll say it's Divine Body Amber the Amber King himself took a bite out of," Chen Li said.

"Can we trust Interastral Peace Corporation? Don't treat Interastral Peace Corporation like a sucker, okay?" Qingque complained.

"You're right. What If I used a biting method to carve this Divine Body Amber into the shape of the Amber King?" Chen Li asked.
