Their commission was suspicious.

The most terrifying aspect of the modified thermobaric bomb, besides its ability to penetrate magic and its undefendable nature, as well as its immense destructive power, is its ability to generate ridiculously high temperatures within a confined space.

The captain could already hear the sizzling sound of flesh oozing from behind him.

"Ha, ha..." Touching his still relatively unscathed face, the captain glared resentfully at Chen Luo, his teammate who was sitting in the first row of the audience, giving him the middle finger and even taking a picture with his phone.

Because the captain's face was pressed against the arena's shield, he was fortunate enough to avoid being licked by the flames.

"Holy crap, it's so hot."

"Splash!"

After the captain climbed down from the barrier that was pressed against his face, he turned around and saw Chen Luo pouring ice water on himself.

Because Chen Luo died at just the right time, coupled with the invincible period after his resurrection, he perfectly missed the time when the modified version of the Mad Demon's thermobaric bomb was at its most powerful.

While the remaining extremely high temperatures would still be deadly to ordinary people, they would be somewhat unbearable for gifted individuals, but would not cause any fatal injuries.

Even though ice water was poured over Chen Luo, the high temperature still caused some burn marks on his exposed skin. But Chen Luo was a miracle performer, so why not give himself a perfect treatment?

How reasonable.

"My hair... I'm going to kill you! I'll tear you to pieces and make sure you never reincarnate!"

When the captain saw that Chen Luona's clothes and hair were almost intact, he subconsciously touched his own hair with a hint of expectation, only to find that his 11.2-centimeter-long hair had been burned down to just a few hair roots.

Upon realizing this, the captain gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at Chen Luo. His previous elegance vanished completely at that moment.

Although Chen Luo also enjoyed watching memorable moments of breaking through defenses, especially those involving his own enemies, the change in the other party's attitude was too abrupt, so abrupt that Chen Luo was puzzled.

In an instant, he went from being elegant to a bloodthirsty monster; no one could withstand such a reversal.

[The Void Race, a special race. Their innate ability is spatial manipulation—etherealization. They possess a special magical energy storage organ—Void Hair—and hair is extremely important to them. Due to their unique racial talent, they consider their hair to be a matter of honor. Destroying their hair is almost the same as killing them.]

After seeing the explanation of talent, Chen Luo understood the current situation.

"Wait, don't be angry. We're not mortal enemies, it's just a dispute over interests. I can compensate you, please don't be so angry, okay?" Chen Luo looked at the faint fluctuations in the void in the other party's hand and roughly understood that the other party was now furious.

What a strange point of anger.

But that won't do. The other party is in such a heated mood. If they really start fighting, Chen Luo isn't confident he can turn him into a puppet without killing him.

"Compensation? No way! What good is compensation? Will it give me back my hair? Die!"

"I really can!" Just as the captain's figure suddenly lunged at Chen Luo's face, and the spatial blade extending from his hand was about to slice across Chen Luo's neck, Chen Luo stopped the other party with a single sentence.

The captain stopped for two reasons: firstly, because of Chen Luo's words, and secondly, because Chen Luo was far too arrogant and fearless.

The captain's figure blurred instantly, appearing 2.5 meters away from Chen Luo.

The captain vividly remembered the sword strike Chen Luo unleashed from his staff.

Chen Luo snapped his fingers, and a beam of warm white light suddenly fell upon the captain. Bathed in this extremely comfortable light, the captain, with a sharp gaze, used his ethereal talent to disappear from the spot in just half a second.

"What do you want to do?" the captain asked coldly.

"Let me touch your hair," Chen Luo reminded him.

When it came to his hair, the captain subconsciously touched his sadly long hair with his fingers, which had been severely burned but were recovering relatively quickly.

The captain was stunned.

The captain quickly took out a mirror and compared it to his hair. He found that his hair had grown from a little over one centimeter to about four or five centimeters, and the texture of his hair was almost exactly the same as his original hair.

“A miracle performer should act like a miracle performer. I’m not bragging, but I can heal anything… well, except for injuries involving extremely delicate areas of the brain.” Chen Luo said with his hands on his hips and a smug look on his face.

"But my hair hasn't all grown back yet." Although he was happy for a moment, the captain was still furious when he thought that it was the person in front of him who had caused him to lose so much hair.

Due to the special function of hair, the hair growth of the Void race also has some unique characteristics.

In the first 10 years of a person's life, regardless of nutritional status, hair grows about one centimeter per year. After that, it grows only one centimeter every 10 years; after a hundred years, it grows only one centimeter every hundred years...

If your hair is damaged and your hair volume drops to zero, it will still retain its current hair characteristics.

In other words, without Chen Luo's treatment, it would have taken the captain over 100 years to regrow those nearly 10 centimeters of hair.

"Who told you to dodge just now? If you hadn't dodged, you would have been healed, wouldn't you?" Chen Luo said matter-of-factly.

“…Continue to treat me, and if you admit defeat, I won’t kill you,” the captain said through gritted teeth.

"Add more money."

"Ok?"

“I said I’d pay more. The first treatment is free, but the second one will cost money. So, please give me the money.” Chen Luo extended his hand rather rudely.

Chen Luo was not worried at all that the other party would not cooperate.

Their investigative skills had given them a perfect grasp of the person's thoughts.

The people of the Void race consider the destruction of their hair a lifelong disgrace, but there is a rule that if they can get their hair back by their own ability, they can pretend that nothing happened.

If the hair is cut off rather than destroyed, it can still be reattached; this is a characteristic of the hair of the Void race.

"Don't go too far, you're the one who ruined my hair!"

[Ding! You have a new commission.]

Reward: 600 Primogems

"If you don't pay me, I'll admit defeat right now and make sure you never find me again," Chen Luo said, holding his staff and refusing to back down.

"You've staked out items worth five divine artifacts plus a Puppeteer's Certificate. I don't believe you'd be willing to surrender!" the captain said coldly.

“But I’d rather see you spend over 60 years growing back the 6-centimeter-long hair that was destroyed. Do you think it would be difficult for me, with my skill in resurrecting people, to obtain a divine artifact?” Chen Luo said with a smile.

"..."

A priest who can resurrect others, and a legendary one at that... If placed in the Abyss Plane, he would at least be treated as a demigod (SS-level talent).

It's definitely not possible for them to be short of money.

"I'll count to three, and if you don't give me the money, I'll surrender. 3..."

"I'll give it to you!"

As soon as Chen Luogang mentioned a number, the captain readily agreed.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, he obediently took out two pieces of high-level equipment.

"Not enough. Do you think your 60 years are only worth two pieces of high-level equipment? If I understand correctly, in the eyes of you Void Clan people, hair is comparable to a lover and life itself. Your lover's 60 years of life are only worth two pieces of high-level equipment? At least six. Say one more word and I'll surrender."

"I'm sure you'll never find me in this lifetime. And I'm also sure no one but me can help you."

"...I'll give it to you!" The captain glared angrily at Chen Luo.

Six high-level pieces of equipment were placed in front of Chen Luo.

Chen Luo's sacrifice was merely a healing beam of light.

Even that wasn't the real cure; it was just a beam of light. What truly restored his hair was Chen Luo's skill: Hair Growth Technique.

The captain, with an expectant gaze fixed on himself in the mirror, watched as his hair grew out little by little.

The captain even felt that his hair had grown another half centimeter, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination.

[Ding! Mission complete!]

The scene of openly extorting the opponent in the arena shocked the spectators.

In particular, the scenario where threatening to surrender oneself can terrify the other party is probably the most demanding requirement we have now.

"I can only say, she truly lives up to her reputation as Luo Luo," Yun Xia exclaimed.

"Great!" The captain was overjoyed to see his hair completely restored. After admiring his beautiful hair for half a second, a meter-long phantom blade extended from his palm, and with lightning speed, he turned and slashed at Chen Luo.

But just as they were halfway through the attack, the captain noticed that another insane, modified thermobaric bomb had appeared on Chen Luo's shoulder.

"Hello, and goodbye." Chen Luo gave a bright smile.

"You're stalling for time! Reset your resurrection cooldown!" The captain instantly understood why Chen Luo was willing to heal his hair.

"boom!"

"I can only say, as expected of Lolo." Seeing this scene, the Herrscher of Knowledge said to Yunxia with deep feeling.

Playing mind games?

Can you outmaneuver someone who can read minds?

No one can fool the Lawgiver of Knowledge!

Chapter 1086 Chen Luo: He lost a divine artifact, but I lost two lives!

Thinking of the terrifying power of that monstrous modified thermobaric bomb, the captain instantly abandoned the attack and then went into ethereal form.

The captain is currently only a legend; he cannot quickly become intangible when attacking, and it is also difficult for him to become intangible when under heavy attack.

Blurring is often used as a means of advancing or preemptively saving one's life, requiring some foresight.

This is why the captain's shield didn't have time to become intangible after being penetrated by the modified thermobaric bomb.

The captain was now thinking that he needed to get as far away from the epicenter of that damned bomb as possible; the miracle-maker could resurrect, but he couldn't.

After being teleported to the other end of the arena, the captain once again entered a phantom state, intending to use this to evade attacks.

The captain is still a newcomer to the Legendary tier and his mastery of the holographic effect is not yet sufficient, so the number of maneuvers he can perform is limited.

"Boom!" An explosion rang out, but the terrifying heat and flames that one had imagined did not come.

The rocket only created a small crater in the arena ground.

"..." The captain was stunned for a moment, then instantly realized what was going on.

"You bastard, you actually lied to me!" The captain's face was somewhat distorted.

This guy is really... The captain has never fought such a frustrating battle!

They take advantage of their good health to carry out suicide attacks!

"Sorry," Chen Luo said to the captain who had teleported 50 meters in front of him using the ethereal teleportation technique.

50 meters is an ideal distance for the captain; he could close that gap in less than a second.

If Chen Luo were to use that bomb again, the captain would have one second to teleport back.

"..." Upon hearing Chen Luo's apology, the captain was stunned for a moment.

"Just kidding!"

"Snapped!"

Chen Luo smiled and snapped his fingers. A flowing golden light screen appeared behind him, from which dozens of rockets gradually emerged.

"Look upon the glory of the explosion, you bastard!"

Before the captain could react, he was already too late to stop the shells from being fired.

Chen Luo could fire the loaded ammunition at any time if he wanted to.

"Actually, I'm a combatant," Chen Luo suddenly said.

"Huh?" The captain didn't believe it.

"By the way, there's only one real super explosive in this light screen behind me; the rest are just ordinary rockets," Chen Luo added.

"So... what do you want to do?" The captain didn't understand what Chen Luo wanted to do.

"I just wanted you to guess a riddle, to see which part of what I just said was a lie."

As soon as Chen Luo finished speaking, countless fire arrows were launched from behind him.

Seeing the ammunition being fired behind Chen Luo, and an unknown gun already pressed against Chen Luo's chest, the captain's expression changed drastically.

Since Chen Luo is not a combatant, then the other party's second statement is false.

In other words, only one of the rockets behind Chen Luo might be a real rocket, while the rest are large bombs.

Knowing that things couldn't continue like this, allowing Chen Luo to keep exploiting bugs by resurrecting, while she herself remained weak.

Seeing the bombs hurtling towards him, the captain did not choose to teleport to the other side of the arena. Instead, he used his intangibility ability to avoid the attack and then looked for a suitable opportunity to destroy the staff that Chen Luo had stuck in the ground to revive Chen Luo!

"The repeated explosions of the giant bombs will weaken each other, and with the ability to become ethereal, I can withstand at least 99% of the attacks... or even completely avoid them! I can win!" After making this prediction in his mind, the captain charged towards Chen Luo with determination.

But after the first modified thermobaric bomb exploded, the captain was completely stunned.
