Their commission was suspicious.

Chen Luo didn't doubt whether Liu Huaixi and Bai Zhi could keep the secret, but there was always a chance something might happen.

Just like today at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, if it weren't for the mandatory contract, Chen Luo even suspected that Ye Yunshang would have been so shocked that she would have accidentally revealed his own affairs.

However, it seems that keeping it secret or not makes no difference now, since Chen Luo can determine good or bad fortune through Akasha's records anyway.

Even if there's a problem with his own talent, surely Akasha's record won't be a problem?

But everyone else signed the contract, and the two of them not signing made them seem out of place.

Furthermore, Angelica dahurica needs the contract in the Book of Contracts to cover its contract with the church.

"So, what outrageous secret are you going to tell me?" Bai Zhi put one hand on her hip and held the balloon hammer in the other.

With her silver-white hair, she looked dashing and heroic.

Bai Zhi also wanted to know, what secret required severing the contract first and then using a higher-level contract to cover it up for secrecy?

"Well... why don't you try throwing your balloon hammer into the river? Or maybe you can throw anything valuable into the river."

"Why?" Bai Zhi asked as she casually tossed the worthless balloon hammer into the river beside her.

"Ahem, young Bai Zhi, did you drop this golden balloon hammer? Or this silver balloon hammer? Or this ordinary-looking balloon hammer that you just used to smash the great river god dozens of times?"

"Ah..." Looking at the golden figure emerging from the river, Bai Zhi raised her hand and manually closed her jaw, which had been agape in surprise.

As it turns out, this was indeed a secret worth going through so much trouble to keep confidential.

If others were to find out that the world-famous River God was actually a minor who was not yet 18 years old, what would happen?

……

"Anyway, that's how it is. Now I can finally let loose." Chen Luo said as he took out one of the dolls he had put in his doll world dormitory.

"Ah Luo, you really are..." Yun Xia's expression was one of indescribable disbelief.

Although Yunxia knew that Chen Luo would always pull off some unexpected and shocking moves, she really didn't expect him to choose such a method to help Bai Zhi break the contract.

Are you sick in the head?

"But I'm still very curious, how exactly did you manage to make me lose my ability to move instantly?" This was also a question that had been troubling Bai Zhi.

If only Chen Luo had this method, he might have been able to create some fun, but...

“Oh, this… When I stabbed you with the dagger, I also lightly kicked your shin. Any angel I kick, whether it’s a science-based, physics-based, or conceptual angel, will instantly lose their abilities,” Chen Luo said.

The Little Evil God's Flying Kick didn't specify where it had to hit; it just needed to make contact.

"...That's outrageous? I don't believe it."

"If all else fails, you can ask Yvette."

"Wait, what's going on with Yvette? Don't tell me you and Yvette are having an affair," Bai Zhi exclaimed in surprise.

Bai Zhi simply couldn't imagine that Yvette, that battle maniac, would have anything to do with Chen Luo.

"Well, I did kick her, and we're also sworn brothers. Now, for some special reasons, she has no choice but to obey me."

"Good heavens, you've tricked both the presiding judge and the vice-presiding judge of the Inquisition. You're practically taking down the entire Inquisition!" Bai Zhi, the vice-presiding judge of the Inquisition, complained.

"Wait a minute, so that means Ke'er..." Bai Zhi's pupils widened slightly.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't put all the blame on me. I don't try to turn every Inquisition member I meet into one of my own."

"That's good..." Bai Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

"But Xiao Ke'er's incident was indeed a coincidence..."

"??? You're still saying you didn't do it on purpose?"

"I really didn't mean to. Xiao Ke'er was staring at me every day back then. What could I do? I could only make her listen to me," Chen Luo said innocently.

Although Chen Luo could indeed use the consciousness of the Herrscher of Knowledge to modify Xiao Ke'er's memories at that time, the dollification was still the most thorough.

"Sigh, but I only asked Ke'er to keep an eye on you so she could protect you. Ke'er is so naive and simple-minded, how could she possibly notice anything unusual about you?" Although it seemed like the whole world was playing a role in her situation, Bai Zhi thought of Xiao Ke'er, who had been dragged into this mess because of her.

"Alright, don't be sad for Xiao Ke'er anymore. Thanks to you, she's already an S-level talent user."

"Huh?" Bai Zhi's voice cracked slightly.

"That idiot? An S-level talent? I don't believe it!" Bai Zhi shook her head.

Having been Xiao Ke'er's roommate for so many years, how could Bai Zhi not understand Xiao Ke'er?

If Xiao Ke'er becomes an S-level talent, wouldn't she be shouting all over the world with a megaphone?

"Oh, a confidentiality agreement..." Bai Zhi realized instantly.

“Looking at it this way, my other roommate’s prediction was actually correct. Ke’er’s chance to get ahead lies in keeping an eye on you,” Bai Zhi said, stroking her chin.

"Alright, now that we've laid it all out, let's talk more freely. Our team is way too bloated right now; it doesn't look like we're here to explore the Abyss Passage, it looks more like we're on a picnic!" Chen Luo raised his hand to attract everyone's attention.

"Furthermore, I've taken on a mission that requires me to test the Abyss Passage game to see if it's complete. So I have to keep exploring it, which might slow down your progress."

"If you find it troublesome, we can split into two teams, one for me and one for you. You don't need to worry about my safety; even if the world is destroyed, I can still escape. You don't need to worry about your safety either; even if you're completely dead, I can resurrect you."

Even if he's been dead for too long, Chen Luo still has the Moon Clock, right? As long as time can be reversed enough, he can definitely be resurrected, unless time runs out.

"Furthermore, to ensure your safety, I will also equip each of you with several five-star items, which are roughly equivalent to divine artifacts."

"so……"

"I'll pair up with you. There are only a few divine artifacts in total, so you should let them share them. I'll just have to make do," Yun Lian'er immediately raised her hand.

"I didn't mean I'd give you a total of several artifacts; I meant several artifacts for each person," Chen Luo corrected.

"...I still stand by my suggestion. I'll come with you."

To be honest, Yun Lian'er was even tempted for a moment just now.

"Shameless bastard! Not only did he take advantage of the situation, but he also portrayed himself as a victim!" Yun Xia immediately jumped up.

Yun Xia was very familiar with this trick. Before Yun Xia and Yun Lian'er became gifted individuals, Yun Lian'er would use this trick to disguise herself when she snatched Yun Xia's toys.

“Abby wants to be in the same team as her brother.”

"I haven't been able to sleep well since I left Alo. Besides, all my personal belongings are in Alo's sea of ​​consciousness."

"I feel it's my duty as a bodyguard to ensure Chen Luo's safety."

"Waaaaah."

Finally, Liu Huaixi, who hadn't spoken until now, looked around and realized that she seemed to be the only one left in the second team...

【Miss Liu, are you trying to isolate everyone else all by yourself? You're a support character, and a weak one at that!】

"Um... I'm a support. No matter how you split into teams, just remember to take me with you," Liu Huaixi said weakly.

You guys aren't planning to let a terrible support player form a team all by himself, are you?

"I say, why don't you guys find a few people to form a second team?" Chen Luo said helplessly.

"I'm not going. I didn't come to the Abyss Passage for money. Besides, with these Bookworm Glasses, I've already gained enough." Yun Lian'er pushed up her glasses.

"If she doesn't go, I won't go either."

"Oh, brother, are you going to let Abby go to the other team alone?"

"I think we shouldn't split into teams. It's easy for things to go wrong if we split into teams," the Herrscher of Knowledge said quite seriously.

"really."

"really."

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"...Alright." After seeing the request, Chen Luo had no choice but to give in.

"But speaking of which, are there still divine artifacts?" Liu Huaixi asked cautiously.

"...Xiao Xi, you suddenly remind me of Pigsy from Journey to the West, who's always clamoring for a share of the family property."

"Ugh?"

Chapter 1077 Bai Zhi's Mind Begins to Accumulate Yellow Waste

"How did you end up here?" Bai Zhi, dressed in an adventurer's outfit, leaped across four or five meters from the other side of the river and sat down next to Chen Luo.

“Obviously, fishing.” Chen Luo, holding a fishing rod, said matter-of-factly.

"But everyone's picking out amazing artifacts over there, aren't you going to choose one too?"

"Are you kidding? Do I need to pick and choose my things? I already have the useful ones, and you can use the ones I don't need."

"But why aren't you using this Survivor's Set I'm wearing? It increases the quality of loot you find during your adventures; a full set adds 30% to the quality. The higher-level set adds 50%." Bai Zhi asked, somewhat puzzled.

The Lucky One Set is the Adventurer Set that Bai Zhi is currently wearing.

Specializing in luck can increase the quality of loot; with this attribute alone, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a divine artifact in the Abyss Passage.

Although Bai Zhi is currently wearing an exquisite and beautiful women's outfit, it's only an appearance; if Chen Luo were to wear it, it would become a men's outfit.

“I wore it. Then I took it off.”

Is it because it doesn't work well?

"No, because beginners in the Abyss Passage can't wear high-level sets." Chen Luo pouted unhappily.

This Lucky One Set is one of the 25 4-star equipment pieces that Chen Luoxin drew. As Bai Zhi said, it is indeed a high-level set specializing in exploration.

Four-star sets have a chance to increase loot quality by 30%, silver sets have a medium chance of increasing it by 50%, and gold sets have a high chance of increasing it by 70%.

The problem is that as soon as Chen Luo puts on this outfit, the satisfaction level of the game testers drops sharply to below 50%.

Moreover, Chen Luo's extremely low luck these past few days means that this outfit is useless to him.

After all, this set has a probability of increasing, rather than a certainty.

Chen Luo sometimes felt that this abyss passage was too rigid.

Why shouldn't new players get top-tier gear right from the start?

But never mind, global goodwill is more important.

Bai Zhi found Chen Luo's explanation both enigmatic and impressive.

"That's incredibly extravagant, and you actually have so many divine artifacts." Although she knew many of Chen Luo's secrets, Bai Zhi was still shocked when she first saw the mountain of divine artifacts.

What kind of big spender?

"According to the Abyss Passage, my [Artifacts] were originally just high-level equipment. Fifty or sixty pieces of high-level equipment isn't that outrageous in this world, is it? It's only after being enhanced by the River God's power that I have so many more artifacts."

"No...that's precisely why it seems even more outrageous, isn't it? Besides, fifty or sixty pieces of high-level equipment is already quite a lot, isn't it? The church's inventory only has 68 pieces of high-level equipment in total," Bai Zhi denied.

In a sense, Chen Luo's ability to turn high-level equipment into divine artifacts, or even two divine artifacts, is even more terrifying than possessing hundreds of divine artifacts in themselves.

Moreover, according to Chen Luo, if you're lucky and your quality is high enough, a three-star equipment can be upgraded into a divine artifact.

"Tch, if it weren't for the fact that I spent a lot of my currency on buying abilities, I could definitely surpass the Church in terms of high-level equipment! No way, the Church is so rich, I have to rob them later!" Chen Luo gritted his teeth in envy.

"Come on, what is the church worth your time? How many people are in the church compared to you? The church has hundreds of thousands of people sharing 68 high-level equipment pieces, while you are just one person with fifty or sixty high-level equipment pieces plus a hundred artifacts," Bai Zhi complained.

"And most importantly, the Church's high-level equipment is like scrap metal after leaving the Abyss Passage, but your high-level equipment is completely unaffected when leaving the Abyss Passage."

This is the most outrageous one.

"It's different. I'm in charge of an entire world. In your words, the church has hundreds of thousands of people sharing 68 high-level equipment pieces, while I will have billions of people sharing these fifty or sixty high-level equipment pieces."

"And most importantly, I'm very curious about what kind of equipment you're talking about, the artifact. If it's a 5-star equipment... according to you, artifacts can still be used after leaving the Abyss Passage, right? To be honest, I'm envious. I only have one real artifact on me."

The equipment and items are different inside the abyss passage.

Equipment generally refers to weapons and accessories, while props generally refer to items that can be used only once.

Equipment has a significant impact on world balance, so it can no longer be used once you leave the Abyss Passage.

Items are different; some disposable items can still be used after exiting the abyss passage.

For example, the items protected and stored by relevant departments, and the forbidden trioctahedron given to Chen Luo by his guide.

Otherwise, if all items could only be used in the Abyss Passage, the Abyss Passage wouldn't be so sought after by both the Abyss Plane and the Prime Plane.

"Oh, what kind of magical artifact?" Bai Zhi asked curiously.

"Eye of the Elements." Chen Luo tossed his Eye of God to Bai Zhi.

"The Eye of God? My friend has one too. But isn't that an item for an A-level talent user?"
