Their commission was suspicious.

Croissant felt that Rhodes Island was not like a pharmaceutical company because she had gone deep inside it.

When doctors no longer act like doctors...

I'm talking about Kal'tsit.

When a PhD no longer acts like a PhD...

This refers to Chen Luo, who works part-time as both an angel killer and the River God.

When the Demon King is no longer like the Demon King...

Amiya really doesn't look like a demon king at all.

Therefore, Rhode Island Medical Inc. is not a pharmaceutical company.

"Actually, I suggested that you keep the golden shield, Croissant," Exusiai said from the side.

"To do a good job, one must first have the right tools; Remy Leigh's words make sense."

"Mr. Angel Killer, you can still call me Illusion from now on."

“Alright. Exusiai is right,” Chen Luo said.

“I know that, but how much would I have to pay for this shield if I sold it to myself?” Croissant asked, looking at the exceptionally sturdy-looking golden shield next to her.

"So how much did you originally plan to sell it to Rhodes Island for?" Chen Luo asked.

“Uh…the price is definitely different when selling to an individual and when selling to a large company, right?” Croissant tried to explain.

"Okay, let's reduce it then, from 9,999 million Lungmen Dollars to 999 million." Chen Luo snapped his fingers.

“Ugh, too much…” Croissant’s heart was bleeding.

Croissant did indeed set the price in her mind at 9,999 million LMD when selling the shield to Rhodes Island, but that was too expensive, wasn't it?

And Rhodes Island will definitely try to negotiate the price back!

And how did he know my internal quote?

"Don't even think about it, I can't read minds."

"You still say you can't read minds?" Croissant almost jumped up.

“However, 999 million is quite expensive for an individual, and even if you sell it to Rhodes Island, the transaction price won’t be 9,999 million. So how about this, I’ll sell this golden shield to you for 180 million LMD, the price of a piano,” Chen Luo said after thinking for a moment.

"And the silver one will be a free gift."

"Deal!" Croissant said immediately.

Croissant knew the original price of her shield. Her shield was already quite expensive, and if she gave herself the silver one for free, she might be able to sell it for a good price (the key is its research value). In effect, it was like she didn't spend much money on the gold shield!

Otherwise, even at 180 million Lungmen Dollars, you still can't afford a croissant.

After all, Lungmen Dollars have quite a high purchasing power.

"But whose piano is so expensive? 180 million Lungmen dollars," Croissant muttered to herself.

But to which faction will this silver shield be sold? Rhodes Island?

"Rhodes Island, Rhodes Island, can you please stop trying to ruin Rhodes Island? Gold is no good, and silver is no good either!" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Croissant, and then Croissant received three blows to the head.

Texas is now increasingly able to understand Chen Luo's meaning.

With Chen Luo as a tool, Rhodes Island is bound to have plenty of golden items; it's just that Chen Luo hasn't shown this ability before.

Chen Luo is, after all, a doctor who escaped from Rhodes Island. He can't just stand by and watch someone use his things to harm Rhodes Island.

It's not fair to call it a trap.

It's worth the price, but Rhodes Island doesn't need it.

Croissant's actions are roughly equivalent to selling diamonds in Africa or oil in the Middle East.

Moreover, they did these things when Africa didn't know it had diamonds and the Middle East didn't know it had oil.

"Alright, Exusiai, you haven't had a proper meal for a day now, so I won't bother you anymore."

"Hey, Mr. Angel Killer, where are you going?" Exusiai vaguely sensed that Chen Luo was about to leave.

"Let's explore Rhodes Island. I'm going to Lungmen with you tomorrow, so of course I have to say goodbye to my friends now," Chen Luo said matter-of-factly.

"Oh."

"Hey, do you guys think we'll be able to leave Rhodes Island smoothly tomorrow?" Croissant asked after Chen Luo left.

"Why do you say that?"

"Because you kidnapped Rhodes Island's Doctor! You should have some idea of ​​the consequences of what you did, okay?" Croissant said matter-of-factly.

What makes you think that Rhodes Island won't hunt you down after you kidnapped the escaped doctor?

Although Rhodes Island is nominally a pharmaceutical company, and seems to be struggling when facing Lungmen or other large forces, you cannot deny that Rhodes Island is indeed a very large force.

"..." Exusiai paused for a moment, then looked at Texas.

"Don't panic yet. Chen Luo has the ability to become invisible, and maybe this runaway doctor isn't as important as we think. Let's ask him when we go to lunch later," Texas suggested.

……

"...Oh no, why do people look like they want to tear someone apart whenever we mention that someone secretly took Rhodes Island's leading doctor out?"

"How should I know? And keep your voice down?"

Exusiai was starting to panic; she realized she had indeed done something big that could shake the entire Rhodes Island.

It wasn't earth-shattering, but the trouble certainly seemed considerable.

"Don't panic, as long as we don't get caught, there won't be any problems. But we absolutely cannot let the other Rhodes Island operators know that the Doctor from Rhodes Island is planning to run away with us, or we're finished."

Exusiai, Texas, and Croissant cautiously looked around, and only breathed a sigh of relief when they made sure no operator's gaze was specifically focused on them.

Although the three of them were hiding in the corner and looked a bit furtive, they were members who officially did business with Rhodes Island, so no one should pay special attention to them... right?

Exusiai breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that no one was watching, but she could still smell a faint fragrance of violets, perhaps because someone had just sat in this secluded corner.

However, Exusiai didn't pay much attention to it. It's normal for people to come and go in the cafeteria, as long as there's no one next to her.

"By the way... where did the Doctor go?"

"Who knows?"

……

Rhodes Island's ships aren't larger than you might imagine, so the operators' single dormitories aren't that big either, at least not like the researchers' dormitories in Flame Chaser, which have three bedrooms and a living room.

The situation of the Fire-Chasing Moth was also largely thanks to the strong support of Sister Eden.

Chen Luo's dormitory was rather small, and it contained some strange equipment.

For example, a hospital bed with restraints installed and a chair for medical caregivers placed next to it.

These two devices take up a considerable amount of space in the room, but there is also a fairly large cabinet and a humidifier placed in the corner of the dormitory.

It's less like a dormitory and more like a privately customized hospital room.

On the hospital bed fitted with restraints, a white-haired woman lay quietly.

Chen Luo floated to the chairs where the caregivers were to sit, removed the vacant spot, and then sat down.

Chen Luo moved very gently, but without him making any attempt to conceal his presence, the white-haired beauty who had been sleeping on the hospital bed suddenly opened her scarlet pupils and looked at Chen Luo sitting next to her.

"Hehe, hahaha...mmmmm!" Seeing that the Specter Shark was somewhat unstable and about to make a sound, Chen Luo sealed its mouth before the opponent's spellcasting animation had even begun.

"Shh." Chen Luo made a gesture of advancement towards Specter.

Ghost Shark, a beautiful white-haired girl with red eyes, who can be a bit crazy at times.

After his mouth was covered, Ghost Shark tried to use force to remove the restraints on his body, but those restraints were originally designed to restrain Ghost Shark.

Chen Luo did nothing until the other person calmed down; he simply stared at the other person quietly.

During the eye contact with Chen Luo, Ghost Killer gradually calmed down after his resistance failed.

Only after the other party stopped struggling did Chen Luo reach out and peel off the tape from the ghost shark's mouth.

"You are... Ah, isn't this the Doctor?"

The Specter's aggressive behavior just now was not only due to its unstable mental state, but also because of Chen Luo's sudden appearance, which made the cute little shark a bit stressed.

After calming down, Specter can still have normal conversations.

Although there was still a hint of madness in his tone.

The source of the Ghost Shark's neurological infection is an excessive amount of Originium concentrate that was forcibly injected into its spinal cord.

Originium has never been a symbol of peace on the continent of Terra; rather, it represents an ominous yet powerful force.

It's like Honkai energy.

Honkai is omnipotent and very useful, but nobody likes Honkai energy.

Ghost Shark survived the injection of an excessive amount of Originium concentrate thanks to the modifications she underwent with the Deepsea Hunter.

Unlike Skadi, who lives a reclusive life, Specter rarely interacts with other operators, but that doesn't mean she never does.

Skadi was the one who truly had no contact with anyone; she was either alone or on combat missions.

Ghost Shark knows Chen Luo; at least he has seen Chen Luo in photos.

The key point is that Ghost Shark experienced yesterday's turmoil. At that time, Ghost Shark was not lying on the restraint platform, so he saw Chen Luo's photo in someone else's hands.

However, whether it was Specter or Skadi, Chen Luo had already fled after they arrived at Rhodes Island.

Although they occasionally wrote letters to Rhodes Island, or communicated or even remotely commanded affairs outside of Rhodes Island headquarters, Specter, Skadi, and Chen Luo never had any contact during this process.

"Chen Luo" just doesn't want to handle official business, it's not that he doesn't want to do the job anymore.

At least, that's how the identity is "set".

"So, Doctor, what do you want from my dorm?" Specter was still wary of Chen Luo's arrival, but not overly so.

Firstly, because this is Rhodes Island, and Chen Luo is a doctor; secondly, because of the effect of the weapon Specter.

Deep-sea hunters, connected by blood ( )

"It's nothing, I just wanted to chat with an old friend..." Chen Luo said, while reaching out to touch Ghost Shark's head.

The ghost shark instinctively moved its head a short distance, but due to the restraints, the range of movement was extremely narrow.

Ghost Shark could have continued to retaliate with its teeth, but after a moment of hesitation, it did not make such a decision. In the meantime, Chen Luo's hand landed on Ghost Shark's head.

"Shark, shark, good boy, the bad guys have been chased away. You don't have to be afraid anymore."

In that profound sense of peace, Ghost Shark slowly closed its eyes.

But this sense of security only lasted a few seconds. When Chen Luo's head-patting gesture abruptly stopped, Ghost Shark reopened its eyes.

"Shark, long time no see." Chen Luo said with a smile as he looked at Ghost Shark, whose eyes had regained some clarity.

"You?" Ghost Shark frowned after a moment of confusion.

Ghost Shark recognized Chen Luo's tone, but he didn't seem to know Chen Luo at all.

"Ahem, let me change my address. Crispy Shark, long time no see."

"How many times have I told you, my name isn't Crispy... Wait, you're... a psychiatrist?" After the usual impatient tone, Specter showed a mixture of surprise and nostalgia.

There's also Chen Luo's resentment at calling himself "Crispy Shark".

You're the one who's a Crispy Shark, your whole family is a Crispy Shark!

Chapter 1205 Ghost Shark: Please... don't leave me, okay?

"Is that so? Oh, I see... The Deep Sea Church? Heh, hahaha!" Ghost Shark burst into laughter.

"..."

[It reverted back to normal, laughing until it went crazy... You really can't reason with a madman. Could this Crispy Shark's main personality have laughed itself to death?]

Ghost Shark's problem was already quite serious; her memory loss was not only an emotional issue but also a physical one.

Ghost Shark's spinal cord was injected with an excessive amount of Originium concentrate, which infected his nerves. He also suffered amnesia due to being taken to that church and subjected to long-term torture.

Simply patting the head for two or three seconds won't solve the problem for Ghost Shark.

There's no problem solving it; just keep touching it for a while. But Chen Luo didn't choose that option.
