Their commission was suspicious.

"Lolo, Lolo, look at this crystal shoe skin I found, isn't it pretty?" Bai Zhi said excitedly.

"nice."

"But you only glanced at it."

"Well... it looks nice, but it doesn't match your Lucky Star set. Black stockings with crystal shoes... how about you try giving this Lucky Star set a royal princess skin?"

“It’s not impossible…” Bai Zhi’s interest was piqued again.

"There happened to be a skin refresh scroll in the treasure chest I just opened..."

"By the way, I wove seven magic carpets in the past half hour. Everyone should share them. Although the original magic carpet is faster in terms of speed, I sacrificed some of the speed for comfort and functionality."

After giving away the magic carpets he had woven to everyone present, Chen Luo took out a map and compared the location of the Puppet Master Profession Secret Realm with his own location, confirming that the locations were almost identical.

After determining the location, Chen Luo folded the map in his hand into a piece of paper the size of a palm, and then threw it into the hollow of a dead tree in front of him.

This map is the item obtained by combining seven clues, and it also serves as a token for entering the secret realm. How to use this token is also recorded on the map.

After the piece of paper fell into the tree hole, the space in front of the originally unremarkable withered tree suddenly rippled, finally revealing a vortex with the beauty of the starry sky, like the entrance to an abyss.

This is the entrance to the secret realm.

"Let's go. We don't know how long it will take to explore the secret realm. After we finish this job, I'm going back to my hometown to get married."

"Hmm, marriage? With whom?" The Herrscher of Knowledge instantly became alert.

Yun Xia and Yun Lian'er, who were fighting, stopped their fight. Bai Zhi, who was thinking about changing the skin of her outfit, also looked up at Chen Luo.

“And the puppeteer’s professional certificate,” Chen Luo replied matter-of-factly.

Or should I stay with you?

As mentioned before, charming a fool is illegal.

"Tch." The Herald of Knowledge gave Chen Luo the middle finger, then followed Chen Luo into the secret realm.

"Why does it feel like... like I've entered the Abyss again?" The Herrscher of Knowledge said, looking at the scene before her after entering the Profession Realm.

"The fact that you have this feeling shows that your memory is quite good. To be honest, quite a few people have complained about this. The entrance to the secret realm outside looks very similar to the entrance to the abyss passage, and this hall in front of us looks very similar to the blank hall," Yun Xia replied after hearing the Herrscher of Knowledge's words after following her in.

They found themselves in a small, empty hall, but this one had a few more sofas than the one at the entrance to the abyss passage.

"It's good enough that we can enter the Abyss Passage, let's not be picky," Yun Lian'er said after choosing a two-seater sofa and sitting down.

"That's what they say, and looking alike doesn't affect functionality, but... well, for open-world games, it's good enough to have something to play."

After thinking about it, Yunxia decided to keep quiet.

Neither the Abyss Plane nor the Spiritual Plane really understands why the Abyss Passage forms such a strange ecosystem.

But one can probably guess that it concerns matters related to the Heavenly Way.

For people from the spiritual plane, it's perfectly normal for the heavens to have consciousness. To speak ill of the Abyss Passage while it's still within its confines could easily incur resentment. What if the treasure chests you open later only contain cabbages?

The more you know, the more awe you have for the world, just like how Yunxia always wanted to figure out who gave Chen Luo the task of becoming a game tester.

I dare not ask, I really dare not ask.

"Why is there a sofa here? Are we going to have to wait a long time?" Abby looked around the empty little room.

Abi originally thought that once he entered the secret realm, there would be battles or puzzles to solve.

Abby has never been afraid of exploring the unknown.

It was like exploring a deep abyss passage. Although there were all sorts of strange things in the abyss passage, Abby had never been afraid since morning and had remained excited the whole time.

It is particularly noteworthy that after Abby enters the abyss passage, the keyhole on his forehead reappears.

However, perhaps because of the matching bracelets, Abby did not exhibit the bad-boy behavior she used to have.

It might have an impact, but it won't be noticeable to the naked eye.

"Because you need to choose the type of secret realm. If it's just a simple exploration-type secret realm, that's fine, as you'll likely encounter a battle soon after entering. But if it's a quest-type secret realm, you might enter an extremely realistic instance, where you might need to defeat someone or do some strange quests."

"However, if it's a treasure-hunting secret realm, the mission rewards are already determined, and the type of secret realm will most likely be randomly selected. Since the rewards are already determined, there's no unknown factor, so the only thing to be flexible about is the type of secret realm. In a sense, the Abyss Passage is still quite fair."

Because the Abyss Passage has no intention of letting you obtain rewards peacefully.

Either the type of the secret realm is determined but the rewards are unknown, or the rewards are determined but the type of the secret realm is unknown.

Anyway, I'm going to give you a job.

Chen Luo was already standing in front of the only screen in this small, empty hall.

As the one who synthesized the clues, Chen Luo naturally had the right to choose the secret realm.

If it weren't for this special rule, Jian Chenluo might have let others choose the secret realm.

Chen Luo had no expectations for his luck these past few days.

Fortunately, because his hard skills were so reliable, luck had little impact on Chen Luo.

Even though Chen Luo possesses reconnaissance abilities, the view he gets when examining this secret realm is indeed random and changes every moment.

This proves that the randomness of this secret realm is indeed reliable.

This is truly random.

Chen Luo's talent could display the current type of secret realm, but because the displayed secret realm type was constantly changing, and because Chen Luo's satisfaction level dropped by 10% every second his reconnaissance ability was activated, Chen Luo was so frightened that he immediately turned off his reconnaissance ability.

Random dungeons should be random, of course!

This is also part of the gaming experience.

When Chen Luo turned off his reconnaissance talent, the type of the current secret realm changed again before he could even press the button.

It's truly random at all times; you can't determine the current dungeon type without constantly keeping your talents active.

"Let's just go with random. With the current lineup, I don't think it will be too difficult to get a class certificate." Chen Luo pressed the button to select the dungeon.

"The Abyss Passage has always been a place where danger and opportunity coexist. If you encounter an extremely difficult secret realm, don't get angry, because the rewards after clearing it will definitely be very high. And for someone like you who has already confirmed the reward items, you will be matched with a secret realm of suitable difficulty that won't be too excessive," Yun Lian'er comforted her.

"As long as it's not the kind of secret realm that requires public exposure, it's fine. I heard from Wenxuan that there's a type of secret realm that requires different exploration teams to work together," Chen Luo said.

Although the number of abyssal passages is small, it is not too few either, and each abyssal passage is almost very large. Apart from the abyssal passage in Xinghai City, which abyssal passage is not explored by thousands, tens of thousands, or even more people at the same time?

Therefore, it's perfectly normal for matching-type dungeons to appear.

Chen Luo dislikes this type of secret realm because he doesn't want to reveal anything.

Although revealing some things in the main world wouldn't be a big problem, since Chen Luo can do whatever he wants in the main world.

However, the teams you'll be matched with in the Secret Realm aren't necessarily from the main world; they could also be from the Abyss Dimension.

"Don't worry, those secret realms that require joint exploration are usually because the current team's strength is insufficient, so they need to find a team whose strength exceeds the difficulty of the secret realm to balance it out. Besides, the items given in those secret realms are all of particularly high quality." Yun Xia waved her hand.

"You mean your professional credentials aren't high-level?"

"Well, not really. To be fair, the profession certificate is indeed very good. Apart from things like artifacts, the profession certificate is one of the top-tier items. But the puppeteer's profession certificate isn't high-level. Apart from a special puppeteer like you, if you put a blacksmith's certificate and a puppeteer's certificate in front of you, which do you think they would choose?"

"Besides, didn't you choose the Puppeteer's Certificate not for the reward? Wasn't it just to give yourself a disguise?"

Yunxia's meaning is quite clear: the professional certificate is high-level, but the puppeteer's professional certificate is not.

What's the job description for a puppeteer?

Those who lack the ability cannot obtain it, and those who possess the ability do not desire it...

"Emmm..." Chen Luo was speechless for a moment.

Chen Luo can assure Yun Xia that the puppeteer is truly amazing.

At least the Puppeteer job certificate that Chen Luo obtained was a 5-star item, and it was so outrageous that it could be used to distort Aponia's S-rank Fate ability and SS-rank Herrscher of Domination ability, and then turn them into the shape of a Puppeteer.

However, the job certificate from the Abyss Pass doesn't seem like a five-star item at all.

"Actually, according to your thinking, Lolo, the worst thing for you isn't the joint matchmaking dungeon, but the arena dungeon," Yun Lian'er suddenly said.

"arena?"

"Hmm, the arena. For our team, the arena isn't too difficult, considering our team's strength is actually somewhat excessive. But the biggest problem is that you want to conserve your strength, and besides another team exploring the secret realm appearing in the arena, there will also be spectators watching..."

"It seems that as long as I don't get this arena dungeon this time, I don't need to worry. Let's go for an exploration dungeon instead," Chen Luo pleaded, looking at the dungeon carousel in front of him.

Chen Luo didn't know why the matchmaking process in the secret realm in front of him took so long, but he had a bad feeling about it.

"Holy crap, there's something fishy going on!" Chen Luo was stunned when he opened his eyes after pleading.

Because Chen Luo discovered that the random dungeon instance, which had been spinning forward, had started spinning backward.

After moving back a dozen or so spaces, the dungeon type was set to a red dungeon.

Yun Xia and Yun Lian'er could also see the secret realm selection interface, which was public. As for the fact that the secret realm pointer was turning backward, the two of them said they had never heard of it before.

"And how could it be a Red Secret Realm? Isn't the Red Secret Realm a divine artifact dungeon?" Yun Lian'er asked incredulously.

Although the dungeons are mostly random, there are indeed some color-based classifications.

Generally speaking, the levels are white, blue, purple, and gold. These secret realms will only show their colors after the secret realm type is displayed. However, there is one type of secret realm that will directly show its color from the outside.

A red-colored secret realm indicates that it may yield divine artifacts. However, this also means that the difficulty of this secret realm will be very high.

No matter how Yun Lian'er thought about it, she couldn't believe that the puppeteer's certificate could be a magical artifact.

"You're surprised about the wrong thing. With our team's strength, we can definitely conquer even a divine artifact realm, but the problem is that this realm is an arena." Chen Luo said excitedly, patting the screen.

If this broken screen had been rotating clockwise and ended up in the arena, Chen Luo wouldn't have been so angry. But this broken screen actually started rotating backwards.

They're not even going to put on an act anymore!

You should at least give it a try.

"Although I'm a little alarmed by the extent of your interpersonal relationships, I think it's quite normal, considering you just offended the Abyss Passage, didn't you?" Yun Xia said calmly.

"No, this isn't normal at all, is it? Being specifically targeted by the Abyss Passage is something I've never even heard of before," Yun Lian'er said.

"You two...did you mix up your lines?"

"I just said what she wanted to say," Yun Xia and Yun Lian'er said in unison.

"..."×2

"Hmph." ×2

"Forget it, things have come to this point, let's just clear this dungeon first. Get ready, there are 6 seconds left on the countdown."

Although Chen Luo really wanted to complain about the game company targeting him, he found that he had nowhere to complain.

Forget it, let's just consider it paying back the debt after doing something wrong.

Although it's unclear how long the junior programmer needed to fix the bug in the Poison Mist Swamp, it was indeed Chen Luo's fault for increasing the workload for others.

Although... well, you should at least put on an act.

If the other party had just put on an act, Chen Luo would have felt much better.

After the 10-second countdown ended completely, Chen Luo and his group were teleported away from the small, empty hall.

Chen Luo and the others were suddenly met with a white light and then heard some noise.

"It's the arena? Let's see which unlucky team ran into the arena?"

"Alright, stop saying that. Luckily, this arena is here, so I can catch my breath. I need to take my medicine quickly, because I have to go back to the dungeon to fight monsters later."

"It's been a long time since I've seen an arena."

"And this arena is actually a divine artifact dungeon... This is eye-opening."

Compared to the natural and side-effect-free teleportation of teleportation anchor points, the secret realm teleportation function provided by the Abyss Passage can cause a slight feeling of dizziness.

After Chen Luo adjusted to the dizziness after being teleported, he could see the scene before him clearly.

Just as the dungeon name suggests, Chen Luo and his group are indeed currently in a huge arena.

The arena's design is similar to that of the ancient Roman Colosseum, and in addition to the stands that can accommodate an unknown number of people at the same time, the central arena is indeed quite large.

Chen Luo and his group were currently at one end of the circular arena, while Chen Luo could see five figures at the other end of the arena, standing there and observing Chen Luo and his group.

"Legendary? Three Legendary? Two Saint Realm?" Chen Luo muttered to himself, looking at the annotations above the heads of the five figures.

"What does 'legend' mean?" Liu Huaixi asked in a low voice.
