Their commission was suspicious.

Chen Luo should have around a hundred pieces of 5-star equipment, and the number is growing rapidly. (If a 4-star item is thrown in, Chen Luo can get one more 5-star beginner and one 5-star intermediate piece of equipment. On the other hand, if a 4-star top-tier item is thrown into the river, it is possible that only one piece of usable equipment will be produced, and the other piece, which is above the limit, will disappear after one minute.)

Since he seemed to have too many five-star equipment, Chen Luo decided to lend some out to enrich the team's equipment inventory.

The amount of Originium for renting equipment is negotiable.

"Please don't underestimate me, okay? I'm at least a top 20 expert on the S-rank talent list. How could my equipment be commonplace? On the contrary, it's rare and exquisite." Yun Lian'er pushed up her glasses and said elegantly.

"Specific rankings?"

"18."

"I knew it. If it were in the top ten, I would definitely say the top 10."

"...Don't misunderstand, the S-level talent ranking only has 20 people, and the ranking is not based on strength but on the first letter of the name. I am number 18, and Yun Xia is number 20."

"What about 19th place?" Chen Luo asked curiously.

“Yvette”.

"Hiss... if we sort by alphabetical order, that does seem to be the case." After recalling the alphabetical order of the group, Chen Luo found the ranking quite interesting.

"So who's number one now?" Although he knew the ranking seemed meaningless, Chen Luo was still very curious.

"River God".

"Huh? The River God's H ranking is that high?"

“No, strictly speaking, the River God is number one, and the remaining 19 are tied for second place.” Yun Lian’er shook her head.

"..." Chen Luo had no idea that his alternate account had actually reached number one on that leaderboard.

"Never mind, let's get cooking." Chen Luo sighed.

After lunch, Chen Luo still had to continue hoeing the ground.

……

"Honestly, why am I the one who has to wash the dishes in the end?" Bai Zhi muttered as she washed the dishes by the river.

Normally, you don't need to wash dishes when eating barbecue, but someone insisted on eating rice...

Rice with barbecue? What kind of heresy is that?

Those people should all be thrown into the Inquisition for trial!

"Alright, you got the worst luck because you were unlucky, but I, as the one who cooked, have to wash the dishes. I'm the unlucky one," Chen Luo, who was assigned to wash the dishes, said.

"Well, having someone with me is a consolation prize," Bai Zhi said with a sigh.

"Speaking of which, Xiaozhi, what do you think of this trip to the Abyss Passage?"

"It's best to watch it sitting down, but if that's not possible, squatting down is fine too."

"???"

"The Abyss Passage is nothing special. I'm just treating this as a picnic. If I find anything good, I'll take it; if not, I'll just consider it a relaxing trip." Bai Zhi's attitude seemed quite nonchalant.

"I see..." After finishing his work, Chen Luo wiped his hands and slowly moved behind Bai Zhi.

"By the way, Xiaozhi, could you stand up for a moment?" Chen Luo asked.

"Huh? Why?" Bai Zhi was a little confused, but she still stood up and turned around.

However, when Bai Zhi saw Chen Luo standing so close to her, her face flushed red instantly.

"I'm telling you to face the river."

"Ah, oh." Bai Zhi shook her head and then turned around somewhat awkwardly.

Looking at Bai Zhi in this pose, Chen Luo felt a strong urge to give her a seductive look.

But we have more important business to attend to now.

"Get ready, the surprise is coming."

"Mmm." Bai Zhi nodded gently, her heart filled with anticipation.

A hand emerged from behind and gently wrapped around Bai Zhi's neck.

Bai Zhi's heart was beating even faster.

"Thud!" The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh rang out. Feeling her strength and abilities rapidly draining away, Bai Zhi turned her head in disbelief to look at Chen Luo, who was smiling at her from behind.

"Why...why?" Bai Zhi wanted to resist, but she felt as if her abilities were sealed. She couldn't even break free from Chen Luo's embrace, and she gradually lost her ability to speak.

"I... I clearly..."

“Because…” Looking at Bai Zhi’s despairing face, Chen Luo’s smile became even brighter.

"...You ate too much for lunch."

"???" Bai Zhi's eyes widened in surprise.

Bai Zhi died with her eyes wide open in disbelief...

"Rest for a while." Chen Luo gently placed Bai Zhi, who was limp and powerless in his arms, on the grass and pulled out the golden dagger stuck in Bai Zhi's body.

Bai Zhi, with unknown feelings, wanted to raise her finger to touch Chen Luo, but she didn't even have the strength to lift her hand.

“Next…” Chen Luo placed the golden dagger to his lips, gently licked it, and then smiled as he looked at Liu Huaixi, who was peeking out with a terrified expression.

"!!!"

Seeing this, Liu Huaixi had no intention of running away, but also no intention of resisting.

"..." Chen Luo scratched his head, looking at Liu Huaixi, who had fainted from fright, somewhat at a loss.

Am I really that scary?

……

"Awake? Cough cough, hi, how are you feeling?" Liu Huaixi, who was still unconscious, heard a gentle voice.

Hearing that voice, Liu Huaixi opened her eyes with difficulty.

When Liu Huaixi saw the face of the person looking down at her with concern, her pupils dilated violently.

"Are you alright? Was the child frightened?" Chen Luo placed the back of his hand on Liu Huaixi's forehead, feeling her body temperature.

"Who, who are you? No, who am I? Where am I?" After taking 0.5 seconds to realize what had happened, Liu Huaixi decisively chose to pretend to have amnesia.

Chapter 1076 Isn't it common sense to show your belly when begging for mercy?

Liu Huaixi's decision to feign amnesia was a last resort.

Are you kidding me? The entire S-level talent team is Chen Luo's helper. How can Liu Huaixi, a support talent with almost no combat ability, possibly fight them?

Liu Huaixi was now on the verge of tears.

I shouldn't have believed what they said about my talent: "Quick, get closer to the river! Something good is about to happen! Hurry!"

The good thing you're telling me about is that I'll witness a murder scene and then get silenced?

"Ah, is it now fashionable to witness a murder and then suffer from amnesia?" Chen Luo remarked, looking at the note floating above Liu Huaixi's head.

That's such an old-fashioned method.

"I'm sorry! Please! Please don't kill me! I'll do anything!" Realizing her feigned amnesia was completely ineffective, Liu Huaixi immediately begged for mercy, then lifted half of her shirt, revealing her stomach.

"...What are you doing?" Chen Luo was confused and deeply shocked.

Isn't it common sense to show your belly when begging for mercy?

"Isn't it common sense to show your belly when begging for mercy?" Liu Huaixi said weakly.

"Alright, get up already, my legs are going to go numb. And you, Bai Zhi, stop hitting me." Chen Luo turned his head away helplessly, and then got hit in the face with a pneumatic hammer.

After obediently rolling off Chen Luo's lap, Liu Huaixi was shocked to see Bai Zhi, whom Chen Luo had assassinated, frantically smashing the back of Chen Luo's head with a balloon hammer.

While hammering, he was muttering something.

"It's...it's come back to life!" Liu Huaixi exclaimed in horror.

"You stabbed me in the back! You kicked me! You deceived my feelings!" Bai Zhi, the victim, continued to punch Chen Luo's face as he turned around.

The group is still by the river, and it seems that not much time has passed since the murder to silence them.

Liu Huaixi still couldn't figure out what was happening.

I can't tell them apart, I really can't tell them apart.

"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I can accept the first two, but what the hell is the third one? When did I ever deceive your feelings?" Chen Luo added insult to injury.

"How dare you say that? I trusted you so much, and you stabbed me in the back!" Bai Zhi asked angrily, her eyes wide.

"What are you saying? Didn't you bite back? There's such a big tooth mark on you." Chen Luo subconsciously touched his shoulder.

And on the shoulder, Chen Luo's clothes also had a tooth-shaped opening.

"Yes, I'm sorry..." Seeing Chen Luo covering the teeth marks on his shoulder, Bai Zhi recalled the scene of her biting Chen Luo's shoulder with her teeth.

If Bai Zhi remembered correctly, besides the holes in Chen Luo's clothes, there were also some bloodstains and tear stains on the shoulders...

Whose tears are these?

Hmm, maybe Chen Luo shed tears because of the pain?

"It doesn't matter, it's just a little blood. It's just a pity I can't wear my clothes anymore," Chen Luo said with some regret.

Although Chen Luo didn't mind death, Bai Zhi's attack couldn't deal a fatal blow to him.

Chen Luo had initially thought Bai Zhi would be more radical...

As for the teeth mark, Chen Luo healed it in three seconds.

The Moon Clock is really useful.

"..."

Bai Zhi remained silent.

What am I concerned about that you're not worried about? Why are you worrying about your clothes?

"What...what exactly happened?" Liu Huaixi was somewhat confused about what was going on.

And why is this meadow so desolate?

Liu Huaixi looked at the riverbank with some confusion. The once lush and green grass seemed to have been drained of all its vitality in an instant, falling into a deathly silence.

"Uh... the situation is a little complicated." Bai Zhi's expression was even more complicated.

Bai Zhi couldn't possibly say that because she thought she had been betrayed by the person she loved, and then inexplicably regained her abilities, she flew up to protect her beloved from the front, biting his shoulder tightly, and accidentally spreading the power of death across the entire grassland due to her intense emotions, could she?

It wasn't until Chen Luo forcibly calmed her down using special methods that Bai Zhi realized she was actually perfectly fine...

He had only had the contract binding him severed by Chen Luo's special dagger. It could be considered a good thing.

The reason for performing this "bitter drama" was simply because Chen Luo felt the atmosphere was right and also because explaining beforehand was too troublesome.

However, this matter was not entirely meaningless; at least Bai Zhi left her mark on Chen Luo...

"No need to say anything, I think I understand."

Seeing the long string of text appearing above Bai Zhi's head, Liu Huaixi roughly understood what had happened.

When Bai Zhi thought of Liu Huaixi's talent, her face turned deathly pale.

Damn it, could it be that my mind has been read?

[If you dare to reveal my inner thoughts just now, I'll kill you!]

Seeing Bai Zhi's inner thoughts, Liu Huaixi felt a chill run down her spine.

How brutal! No wonder she's called the Angel of Death!

"Anyway, you two should sign this contract first," Chen Luo said, taking out two contracts.

Bai Zhi had already heard Chen Luo explain the purpose of this contract, so she wouldn't refuse this opportunity to learn more about Chen Luo's hidden secrets. She took the contract and signed her name.

Liu Huaixi, annoyed by the noise of her own talent, simply took the contract and pressed her handprint on it.

[Fast-track visa application]

Watching the two contracts burn to ashes in the flames, Chen Luo finally felt relieved.
