Harvest and the Actor Potion

"Me?" Luo Lin chuckled, propping his chin with one hand. He watched Uroboros and suddenly shook his head, saying, "I don't really have any particular desires…"

This was a lie. Luo Lin certainly had many things he wanted: money, knowledge, power, friends, amusement, and so on. However, he wasn't prepared to ask the True Creator for them, even if he could afford the price.

This was because having one's desires exposed was a dangerous thing. At least for now, Luo Lin wasn't ready to lay his desires bare before the True Creator. After all, the Creator's faction wasn't as trustworthy as Klein and his companions.

Luo Lin could cooperate with the True Creator to a limited extent, but only that.

Uroboros was taken aback, seemingly not expecting such an answer. This caused His brows to furrow, as if somewhat troubled.

"Why fool the Great Serpent? He's already foolish enough. If you fool him like this, he'll become even more foolish," Medici spoke up at this moment. The War Angel's red eyes stared directly into Luo Lin's, as if trying to penetrate his soul.

He continued, "You're hardly a person devoid of desires. At the very least, you're quite interested in both me and this foolish serpent."

Luo Lin chuckled at this, unhurriedly replying, "I am indeed very interested in both of you. Rather, anyone with curiosity wouldn't be indifferent to two King of Angels."

"Tsk!" Medici clicked his tongue. He could tell that Luo Lin's interest in them was far beyond what he claimed, but lacking key information, even the War Angel found it difficult to draw accurate conclusions.

Luo Lin, at this moment, seemed to recall something and wore an expression of sudden realization. "Right, I do have one request."

"What request?" Uroboros asked.

"I have some minor grievances with Amon, so..." Luo Lin trailed off, revealing a brilliant smile. "Help me deal with that Amon. That will be the content of our next transaction."

Uroboros was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Alright."

Medici thought of the Time Worm Luo Lin had produced earlier and felt a sense of schadenfreude.

Amon had also been an accomplice in his hunt by Tudor back then. Now that the other party was facing misfortune, Medici couldn't be happier.

"Then, until next time, you two!" Luo Lin immediately put on a 'see-you-out' expression. His gaze then fell upon Medici again, as if recalling something. "Oh, right, Mr. War Angel, 'tsundere' is out of fashion now."

"Huh?" Medici genuinely had no idea what he was talking about.

"So, Mr. War Angel, you don't need to hide your good feelings towards me. I know you don't hate me as much as you appear."

Luo Lin continued with a smile. This was the honest truth. After the series of events just now, Medici's favorability towards him had risen to twenty to thirty percent. This wasn't a very high level of favorability, but considering it was their first meeting, it wasn't low at all.

Thanks to this favorability, Luo Lin could now directly borrow the power of a Sequence 6 Investigator. It was a small gain.

Compared to that, Uroboros, who appeared more approachable, only had a favorability of around ten percent. Was it because His humanity was too indifferent?

Luo Lin glanced at Uroboros thoughtfully, then turned his gaze back to the War Angel, smiling, "Perhaps during our next meeting, we can become friends."

"Heh, who would become friends with a nasty creature like you? Guys like you should just torment each other with the little crows," Medici retorted, rolling his eyes. In his heart, however, he was slightly surprised. He thought he had concealed his emotions very well, but he hadn't expected the other party to see through him.

He was more perceptive than expected.

Uroboros didn't think that much. Since Luo Lin had already signaled for them to leave, and He was indeed eager to take Medici back to see their Lord, He didn't delay any further. After politely bidding farewell to Luo Lin, Uroboros took Medici and left the safe house.

Luo Lin then leisurely tidied up the room, cleaned up all traces left by everyone, and left the safe house through the Spirit World, arriving at his residence in Hillston Borough.

"So sleepy!" Luo Lin yawned. After all the activity today, his spirituality had been depleted by eighty to ninety percent. He was truly exhausted.

Luo Lin didn't mistreat himself and went straight back to his room to catch up on sleep. By the time he woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

"Good thing I requested leave in advance, otherwise this would be considered absenteeism..." Luo Lin rubbed his eyes, washed his face with a basin of water, and finally felt much more awake.

Luo Lin then quickly tidied himself up, and soon transformed back into a gentleman handsome enough to grace a magazine cover.

Luo Lin also brewed himself some pumpkin congee, fried some sandwiches, and reheated milk. He had always been someone who enjoyed life, and he never deprived himself when he could indulge.

After leisurely finishing his breakfast, Luo Lin finally had the energy to take stock of yesterday's gains.

First, after a series of "provocative" actions towards the War Angel, which provided him with plenty of amusement, Luo Lin's Troublemaker potion was finally consumed. It took a little over half a month.

Considering that the digestion difficulty of the Troublemaker potion was inherently greater than ordinary Sequences, Luo Lin's digestion speed could be considered quite fast. This was largely due to the generous contributions from weakened powerhouses like Pallez, Azik, and Medici. Without them, Luo Lin estimated it would have taken him at least another month or two to digest the Troublemaker potion.

And upon digesting the Troublemaker potion, Luo Lin also successfully obtained the auxiliary materials for brewing the Actor potion from Medici, allowing him to advance seamlessly without any delay.

Secondly, Luo Lin successfully reached an agreement for the next transaction with the True Creator. Not only did he gain favorability from Medici and others, reaping some benefits, but he also achieved a two-birds-one-stone outcome, allowing Luo Lin to simultaneously complete his "Befriend and Subdue" cooperation with Pallez through this transaction.

As for whether Pallez would recognize Uroboros, and that the True Creator was behind Him, it didn't really matter. Being able to command a King of Angels supported by a True God was, in itself, proof of strength.

Finally, Luo Lin also managed to preliminarily confirm the attitude of Adam, another King of Angels. Although that individual didn't choose to show him favor like the True Creator, he clearly didn't wish to antagonize him for now. Currently, he was likely more in a state of observation, or rather, watching him.

"Of course, the most important thing is that I truly gained a lot of amusement from this," Luo Lin placed his hand on the camera that had performed so well yesterday, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"It's a pity Adam ran away too quickly. Otherwise, having Adam and Medici take a photo together while eating hot pot, wouldn't that be wonderful?" Luo Lin shook his head with slight regret, uttering an old dark joke.

He cleaned up the dishes and went up to the laboratory on the second floor.

Since the Troublemaker potion had been fully digested and the auxiliary materials for brewing the Actor potion were in hand, Luo Lin naturally had to advance to Sequence 8.
