Their commission was suspicious.

The note torn from a friend's account, Xiao Shi's name turned to ashes...

PS: In previous Honkai Impact 3rd summer Three Kingdoms Conquest events, some strongholds would mysteriously see their progress skyrocket even though no one was attacking them, which was considered manipulation by the developers. This was historically known as: "The Ghost Army's Passage."

Chapter 1526 Chen Luo: I'm going to use a pincer attack to kill Scorpio. Guess who the sacrifice will be?

"I'm finished eating! Take me back quickly!" Xiao Shi quickly finished her meal, stood up, and ran to Chen Luo's side.

Only five minutes had passed since Xiao Shi was summoned back by Chen Luo for dinner, so it was still possible to send her back through the Friends' Account.

"Don't eat so fast next time. There's always time to play. Come here." Chen Luo pulled out a tissue, gently wiped Xiao Shi's mouth as she approached, and then wrapped a grain of rice in the tissue and threw it away.

The much-anticipated scene of someone picking rice from the corner of their mouth and putting it in their mouth didn't happen, because so many people were watching.

"Okay. So can I go play now?" Xiao Shi asked, tilting her head.

"Go, go." After Chen Luo used the Book of Friends' repatriation ability to send Xiao Shi back to the Paradise of the Past, he realized that it seemed that some people were watching him.

Chen Luo looked at the dining table and saw that people on both his left and right were looking at him with resentment.

"I'm clearly the biological cousin," Su Yuan said resentfully.

No, you are my aunt.

“I’m the one who’s a child,” Cang Xiaoxuan said.

No, you're the little ancestor. A child who's lived for thousands of years, right?

"I...I..." Xiao Xilin wanted to say something suggestive, but couldn't get the words out.

No, child, you are not a person, but a puppet.

"Alright, Xiaoshi is still a child." Chen Luo sighed.

"When I was a child, this was the sentence I loved to hear the most, but now that I'm older, it's the sentence I hate to hear the most," Yun Xia said bluntly.

"Indeed." Bai Zhi nodded.

"What did you say?" Xiao Ke'er, who had been eating the whole time while she was there to freeload, looked up and around.

"It's nothing, just eat," Bai Zhi said irritably.

Eat, eat, eat! All you ever do is eat!

"So... does anyone need mouth-wiping services?" Chen Luo asked, handing over a pack of tissues.

"..."

An eerie silence fell over the air.

"No, right? Then I..." Chen Luo was about to leave.

"I!"

"I was here first!"

"Father, I want it!"

Little Xilin, Mercury Lamp, and Little You almost got into a fight.

Cang Xiaoxuan? She's still eating, she hasn't stopped yet.

Generally speaking, Cang Xiaoxuan is always the last one to finish eating.

However, the dolls can speak freely, but the humans are in a terrible situation.

Yunxia and Baizhi exchanged a glance and chose not to interrupt.

"Um... how is it really?" After all the dolls had finished their service, another familiar stranger at the table asked in a low voice.

It was Mikoto Chiyo sitting directly opposite Chen Luo.

"Raiden, it's nothing serious. You just need to rest for a few more days. You'll be fine after a while."

Originally, Chen Luo didn't need to raise it for so long, since he extracted Lei Dian's soul as soon as it died, and its integrity was very high.

The problem is that Raiden's younger sister, Raiden Movie, took Raiden's consciousness space away.

Therefore, it needs to be rested for a while longer.

"What about Fox Palace?" Torachiyo pointed to Fox Palace, which was wrapped around Chen Luo's neck like a scarf.

"She... needs a few days too. We've already lived for 500 years, a few more days won't hurt, don't worry." Chen Luo said as calmly as possible after taking the Fox Palace off his neck and feeding it a soul fire, but a strange expression could still be faintly read from Chen Luo's face.

After all, Chen Luo couldn't very well tell Miyuki Chiyo that Kitsune had basically recovered and was just craving his soul fire, so he was still acting cute, could he?

Doesn't the Fox Abode Palace have any dignity?

[That's hilarious! Fox Palace still doesn't know, but you already know she can control her body. Anyway, it's the white fox who's embarrassed, what does it have to do with me, Fox Palace? The soul fire is delicious, that's all that matters.]

Fox Palace didn't even know that Chen Luo could read minds.

……

"Chen Luo, your bar is finally open!" Wendy said, raising her glass with considerable emotion.

"Is it possible that I never closed down, and the bar just lost me yesterday?" Chen Luo said while wiping the glasses.

Although the cups can be cleaned themselves, a bar owner should act like a bar owner!

Like a raven, she also wipes cups frequently.

"How can that be the same? A bar without you is like a fish without a bicycle..."

"Does it make any difference whether a fish has a bicycle or not?"

"It lacks visual appeal, don't you understand?"

"...For show, huh? Come on, I have a super depth charge here, and it's even a gold-enhanced version. Once you drink it, you'll be unconscious and lying here forever, adding another green spectacle to the bar." Chen Luo grinned maliciously.

"What a joke! You said you'd pass out if you drank it, do you think I'd keep drinking it?" Wendy sneered.

"Yes!" Chen Luo took out the glass of wine and placed it in front of Wendy.

"...You have a good eye for people. That despicable Chen Luo, he knew perfectly well that I couldn't resist this kind of wine that smells so irresistible." Wendy took the glass of wine with a mournful face.

It's like there's a red button in front of you. If you're a kid with a little bit of adult thinking—no, even if you're a college student—you might still want to press it even though you know it's probably not a good thing.

If that still doesn't convince you, then think about the scars.

I know it will hurt if I press it, but there are always people who can't resist pressing it.

If that person is particularly cunning, they might even peel it off.

And so, after Wendy won that drink, the bar gained a green landscape, just like it had been two months ago.

Seeing this, Yura was so frightened that she put down the wine in her glass.

Yura, limited-time re-release!

"Beep beep beep".

Chen Luo received a message.

After glancing at the message, Chen Luo suddenly looked up at the bar.

"Gentlemen, would you be interested in watching fireworks?" Chen Luo asked.

"Huh? Fireworks? What kind of stunt are you going to pull this time?" Yukari Yakumo instinctively thought Chen Luo was about to do something outrageous.

However, judging from Yukari Yakumo's excited expression, it's clear that she also really wants to do some outrageous things.

"It's nothing, I just want to put on a fireworks show to beat up a little monster for you. I'll go set off the fireworks for you, just wait a moment."

After Chen Luo pushed open the bar door, he appeared on the giant stone monument.

"Oh, by the way, minors are not allowed to watch this," Chen Luo said, turning his head.

"Like you?"

"...Never mind what I said."

After opening a door for everyone in the bar, Chen Luo jumped off the giant stone monument and disappeared without a trace.

When Chen Luo appeared, he had already arrived at the edge of another giant stone tablet.

There was already an armed helicopter parked there.

"Mr. Chen Luo, the Gastrea Scorpius of Phase Five is about to arrive in Tokyo. Please save this city." The Emperor's voice came from the radio in the armed helicopter.

Because of the arrival of the Gastrea in Phase 5, Chen Luo made an exception and restored the mobility of those whose soul flames were relatively dim, organizing a war room that had little practical use.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Kill Scorpio]: 2000 Primogems.

This is a 4-star commission, or more accurately, a group 4-star commission.

Because everyone in Tokyo can see the enormous Gastrea, which sometimes makes mournful cries, in the distance through large screens that are everywhere.

They are subservient to Gastrea, yet they dare to strike hard against the Cursed Child, who can kill Gastrea.

A bunch of idiots!

However, Chen Luo did not refuse the commission, because he needed to make an example of someone.

Unfortunately, the minimum requirement for accepting group quests is four stars. At least Chen Luo has never received a three-star group quest.

"Snap!" Several figures were suddenly teleported to Chen Luo's side by pre-prepared puppets through a group network. Each of them was burning with red soul fire and wailing, but they were all bound and unable to resist.

Meanwhile, Chen Luo also launched a global live stream using his power as a law enforcer.

The goal of making an example of someone should be to ensure that all the monkeys see it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sure you all know who I am. Now, I'm going to show you what a human cannon is all about!"

"First, let me introduce you to the No. 1 cannonball kneeling next to me. His name is Tendo Kazuhiro. When building the No. 32 giant stone monument to resist Gastrea, he added other substances to it in order to embezzle public funds, disregarding the lives of millions of citizens. He is a blacklisted player."

This blacklisted player was kindly provided by Tendo Kisara.

Not only did Tendo Kikunojo become a doll, feeling that he shouldn't die once, but he did the same to the other members of the Tendo family.

Chen Luo didn't care, but his only requirement was that this could only be done if the other party was a blacklisted player.

A purple-named player only needs to die once, and then can be thrown into the Soulfire to cleanse their sins. Only a black-named player deserves to die a thousand deaths!

On the giant stone tablet where Chen Luo was, there were twenty black-named players from different countries, who were so despicable that they could not escape blame for their actions, disregarding the lives of thousands of people for profit, and had even actually killed hundreds or thousands of people.

"You feel honored that everyone's eyes are on you now? Alright, stop feeling honored, you've been enhanced! Hurry up!" Chen Luo patted the struggling Tian Tong and Guang, then grabbed him by the collar and threw him away forcefully.

"Whoosh!"

A pincer movement!

A surge of violent magic, accompanied by the glow of soul fire, finally brought the black-named player who streaked across the sky like a shooting star to pay the price for his actions.

The combined power of the two forces was already immense, and he was further imbued with magic (soul fire).

After bursting into countless beautiful flames in the sky, Scorpio let out a mournful cry, its health bar instantly reduced by 1/20, and it was also afflicted with a debuff called Soulfire.

This was the result of Chen Luo's efforts to suppress the overwhelming power of the pincer attack; otherwise, he would have taken them down in one shot. But the remaining players still need a chance to shine, don't they?

"Now it's your turn. What? Are you scared? But you only need to experience this kind of suffering once. However, those who are forced to go to the battlefield by you (the cursed children) have to go through this kind of life every day, and they are not even treated as human beings by you." Chen Luo looked at the people who were constantly showing fear.

"So you guys can be afraid? A bunch of guys that even Satan would shake his head at are afraid? That's really rare," Chen Luo sneered.

"Who's next? Let me see, the name of shell number 2 is... sigh, never mind, I've already plastered the names and accusations on your faces, you can see for yourselves." Chen Luo was too lazy to introduce them one by one, because once the fireworks started, they should be continuous!

"emission!"

Chen Luo stood atop the giant stone monument. Behind him, the city of Tokyo was ablaze, and screams could be heard from time to time.

Even though the giant stone monument is far from Tokyo, the sound still travels here intermittently.

In front of Chen Luo was a night sky where red shooting stars were constantly lit up, and when that ball of fire collided with the Scorpio-shaped gastrula, it would explode into a dazzling firework.

"clang!"

As the clock struck midnight (time was out of sync in the dark world of bullets), Scorpio let out its final lament.

[Ding! Mission complete!]

This day will be recorded in history, causing all those who commit heinous crimes to tremble in fear and live in constant dread!

How about the name "Judgment Day"?

"Whatever makes you happy. Anyway, for some people, every day from now on might be Judgment Day."
