Their commission was suspicious.

Aside from the first three days when Vivi might occasionally harass Chen Luo, the remaining 27 days would likely be spent cultivating.

Once you sit down to meditate and close your eyes, the rest of the time can be fast-forwarded.

Cultivation knows no bounds; those who rarely meditate and cultivate, like Chen Luo, are heretics.

"Ah, you're going to be staying in the previous civilization for the next month?"

"Yes, that's right." Chen Luo, who had found everyone through the teleportation anchor, told them what he was about to experience before they even complained about the complexity of the mission, and at the same time began to dismantle the two elemental eyes on the little fox.

"However, based on your perception, I should be back before opening at 8 pm tonight," Chen Luo said.

"That's alright... Thank you for your hard work. If it really comes to it, I'll go with you." The Herrscher of Knowledge looked at Chen Luo with concern.

"No need for that. I'm going to the deepest place to cultivate, but you don't. I can take this opportunity to go into seclusion and reflect on my recent thoughts and insights."

Chen Luo has been busy for the past two months, and he really deserves to take a break.

But Chen Luo couldn't bear to part with the raw stone, so he never had a moment's rest.

"Well then, everyone, see you in four hours." Chen Luo glanced at the talent panel, which showed the time as 4 PM, and said goodbye to his friends who were currently working on the Shalin Book 2.0.

"Oh, right, what happened just now was too shocking, I didn't even have time to complain. That damned Shalinshu has been working on it for 6 hours, how come he's not finished yet?" Su Yuan only had time to get angry after Chen Luo left!

Damn this artifact quest!

If she hadn't already worked for 6 hours and was reluctant to give up, Su Yuan would have quit long ago.

In fact, Su Yuan and the others had thought the same thing three hours ago...

Chapter 1145 Alicia Opens Pandora's Box Herself

"Hey, I've finally waited for you." Chen Luo had just returned to the bar and was about to head back to the former civilization when someone called out to him.

"Hmm, what's wrong, Xiao Jiu? Is something the matter?" Chen Luo asked, looking at Xiao Jiu's happy face, as if she had encountered something good.

Poor Xiao Jiu went back to the main world, and although she managed to find out the River God's true identity, she apparently didn't understand what "Nine Thousand Years Old" meant.

"You have no idea how long I've been waiting for you here..."

"I just passed by the bar three minutes ago."

"I waited here for three minutes before you finally arrived. You..." After correcting some mistakes, Xiao Jiu was about to talk about the River God, but suddenly stopped.

Hmm, I feel like revealing that I am the Heavenly Emperor now wouldn't be shocking enough for the other party.

Moreover, although he is the Heavenly Emperor, there is still a long time before the separation between heaven and man ends. If we really want to say who needs whom more, perhaps it should be said that he needs the River God more.

After all, the River God's bar was indeed a good place for the young Heavenly Emperor to take refuge.

Moreover, the River God's ability to travel between the celestial realm and the human realm has indeed provided tremendous assistance to the development of both planes.

If they really reveal their true colors, it's hard to say who will threaten whom.

"Ahem, it's nothing. You can go ahead and get back to work," Xiao Jiu said with a wave of her hand.

Children are still children after all. When they actually face things, they realize that things are not as simple as they thought.

Just like when Xiao Jiu returned to the bar half a minute ago, every time she thought of the scene where Chen Luo was shocked and exclaimed that it was impossible when her identity was revealed, she was having a constant mental orgasm.

However, when actually facing this matter, I had a deeper consideration.

I'll reveal my hand once the time curse on me disappears and I can freely decide what state I'm in.

Before doing that, it's best to learn more about bars and then learn more about Chen Luo.

Xiao Jiu realized that she knew very little about Chen Luo. Apart from the fact that he was the River God, his name was Chen Luo, and he was an S-level healing talent, she knew almost nothing else.

This is a perfect opportunity for Xiao Jiu to learn about Chen Luo in the bar, get close to the River God, and observe Chen Luo in the main plane.

Understanding both aspects simultaneously will definitely lead to a deeper understanding.

"You... know about the Abyss Passage, right?" Chen Luo suddenly asked.

"Huh? How did you know?"

Just as Xiao Jiu was meticulously planning to give Chen Luo a surprise, and while the River God was still unaware of everything, she used her status as the Heavenly Emperor to do whatever she wanted to Chen Luo, who was the River God, when Chen Luo said something that startled Xiao Jiu.

Huh? We were exposed so quickly?

"Let me introduce myself. I am a Fate-type talent user. I possess a talent that allows me to see the notes on a person's body. You can think of it as a talent-based reconnaissance ability. Do you really think the strange behavior you displayed when you saw the Abyss Passage could fool me?" Chen Luo asked, arms crossed.

"You're a talent user with the ability of destiny? How come you have so many talents?" Xiao Jiu was a little skeptical.

"I'm sorry, I don't have much else, but I do have some talent."

Looking at Chen Luo's calm and collected demeanor, Xiao Jiu suddenly remembered the S-level talent statistics chart she received from the boy clone. Among them was a talent named Liu Huaixi, who possessed an ability similar to the Eye of Photoshop, which was very similar to what Chen Luo had described.

Could it be... that this guy also possesses the talent to copy other people's talents?

It was indeed the right decision to observe for a period of time before revealing one's identity.

"Ahem, yes, I do know about the Abyss Passage, but I'm curious, what do you know? You don't seem to know everything about everyone who comes to the bar, do you? Don't you have any privacy at all?" Xiao Jiu escalated the topic to an inappropriate level.

"Oh, don't be so surprised. I only know a little bit about it. Your talent is not bad, and your level is quite high. I can only see that your expression was very strange when you heard about the Abyss Passage." Chen Luo waved his hand.

Chen Luo never thought before he lied.

Not many people know about Chen Luo's abilities, and Chen Luo wouldn't casually tell others about the abilities he has acquired.

No one in the bar cared how omnipotent Chen Luo was; they just knew to contact him if anything happened.

Therefore, whatever Chen Luo says about his abilities is true, and there's no need to worry that Xiao Jiu will discover anything amiss.

"I see..."

Speaking of which, if Xiao Jiu remembers correctly, the Eye of Notes ability was only an S-level talent. Even if it mutated in Chen Luo, it couldn't be too outrageous.

At most, he could be considered an SS-level talent.

Hey, who doesn't have SS-level talent?

In short, don't panic, don't panic at all.

"That's right, you might not believe it, but our plane is one of the planes that has established diplomatic relations with the Abyss Plane, but I won't tell you which one. So, is the Abyss Passage fun? Hey." The first part was a lie, the second part was a genuine question; Xiao Jiu was really curious about the Abyss Passage.

"I'll take you there later. Since you're unwilling to reveal the location of your dimension, I won't force you."

"Thank you, my good friend."

"It's alright, Xiao Jiu, all guests are welcome."

Chen Luo and Xiao Jiu both had smiles on their faces and shook hands warmly.

Two people, 800 schemes.

……

"I'm back." This time, Chen Luo didn't go through the bar door, but used the teleportation anchor point instead.

Perhaps because Chen Luo's appearance was so abrupt, he saw things that he wouldn't normally see.

"Hey? Snake, why were you covering your lips just now? Were you injured? Let me tell you, I'm a master at treating lips. Do you need me to treat you?" Chen Luo suddenly moved closer to Mebius and asked enthusiastically.

When Möbius saw Chen Luo, he instinctively picked up the lab report next to him. But it was too late to react, so he could only glare at Chen Luo.

"Snake, your eyes are so beautiful," Chen Luo praised, looking at Mebius's rainbow-like snake eyes.

"Ok?"

"Oh, I almost forgot, let's get back to business." After being warned by Mebius's strange tone, Chen Luo immediately became obedient.

"What is it?" Möbius's tone softened slightly.

Maintaining a clear distinction between public and private matters was one of Möbius's habits.

However, in the past, Mebius didn't consider himself to have any private matters.

In The Moth Who Chases Fire, everyone who has heard of Möbius's name avoids him like the plague and never bothers him.

It was only after Alicia appeared that Mebius came to understand the concept of personal matters.

Chen Luo's appearance perfectly integrated the concept of private matters into Möbius's daily life.

Considering they probably wouldn't see each other for about a month, Möbius listened very attentively to Chen Luo's last important matter.

"So... do you really need me to treat your lips?" Chen Luo blinked his innocent big eyes and asked sincerely.

“…Come here.” After a moment of silence, Möbius beckoned to Chen Luo with his finger.

"...To be honest, I'm a little hesitant to go over there," Chen Luo said, glancing at the notification above Mebius's head.

So, are you coming or not?

"..." Chen Luo, unable to resist, moved closer.

Damn temptation!

……

"Uh, Lolo, are you really okay? How come you can have a slap mark on your face and still be smiling so smugly?" Alicia felt she needed to be concerned about the mental health of her dinner chef.

"What do you know? Scars are a warrior's honor! I call this a triumphant return. Let's not say anything, we can still be friends." After hearing Alicia's suggestion, Chen Luo rubbed the slightly red handprint on his face and said.

"Lolo, does it really not hurt?" Danzhu asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, it really won't hurt," Chen Luo said.

It can only be said that the slap mark was originally made to cover something up.

Although Chen Luo suspected that Mebius was still harboring some personal resentment, Chen Luo wasn't the one who would suffer a loss, so it wasn't a big problem.

"By the way, where's Hua?" Chen Luo looked around but couldn't see Hua anywhere.

"Hua went back to her dorm first, saying she wanted to prepare your luggage for your trip to the deepest place."

"I suddenly have a bad feeling..." Chen Luo said to Alicia next to him quite seriously.

Are you worried that Hua has prepared too much luggage for you, or that the luggage is not suitable? Hua shouldn't be the kind of person who doesn't know what's important, right?

"Let's go, let's hurry back to my dorm. I need to go back to my dorm to get some wine too," Chen Luo said.

Chen Luo had his little spider puppet, who was in the dormitory, place the two bottles of wine he needed under his bed.

Why did Alicia order a bottle of wine in addition to the food?

When Alicia accompanied Chen Luo back to his dormitory, she learned why Chen Luo was worried about his situation and understood the rationale behind his concerns.

"Wow, that's really... five suitcases! It's amazing you managed to gather that many, Hua!" Alicia exclaimed in surprise, looking at Hua, who had already filled five suitcases to the brim in Chen Luo's living room and was still preparing more.

"That's enough, Hua. I'm going to solitary confinement this time, not to move. Don't bring water cups or teapots, and you don't need a small computer desk either."

"Hmm? What should I bring?"

"Don't bring anything? Oh, never mind, just pack the second and fourth suitcases. Two suitcases are really enough."

Although Chen Luo really wanted to say that once he got to the deepest level, he would always be able to make a name for himself and get whatever he wanted, right?

However, seeing Hua's concerned gaze, Chen Luo ultimately accepted half of the concern.

Holding a suitcase in each hand is really enough; this isn't a picnic.

"Alright, Hua, you go ahead and pack up. I'll go make dinner for Ellie. After all, that's the reason I was able to be released and prepare."

Alicia still holds considerable prestige among the higher-ups. While she might not be able to win their favor through her personal charm, she joined the Flame Chaser during the Second Herrscher era and is one of the Flame Chaser's most powerful warriors, boasting outstanding combat achievements.

After arriving at his bedroom, Chen Luo took out the box he had prepared beforehand from under the bed, took out two of the ten bottles of wine he had prepared, and then left with Alicia.

Alicia was curious why Chen Luo had brought two bottles of wine, but Chen Luo kept being mysterious. Alicia didn't even see what kind of wine it was.

Dinner tonight will be prepared in Alicia's dormitory. Perhaps dining together in Alicia's dormitory is more tempting for Eden than in a fancy restaurant.

With Eden's wealth, what luxury hotel hasn't he been to?

It's understandable that Eden was more interested in Alicia's dormitory than those luxury hotels.

"This dinner is not only to fulfill the dinner you promised me, but also a welcome ceremony for my friend Eden. From today onwards, Eden officially joins the Firemoth. Lolo, you'd better prepare well. Of course, your sister Ellie won't treat you badly either."

Several months have passed since the Seventh Herrscher swept across Australia and affected the Australian Dome. After undergoing a long period of psychological treatment, Eden accepted Alicia's offer and decided to join the Moth of Flame.

Before? Before, Eden only became friends with Alicia because he had met her at a concert. Now they are colleagues.

"I know. But when did you become the older sister? I didn't know that."

"But... Lolo, you're not 18 yet, are you?"

"Nonsense, he's already 18 on his ID card."
