So the girl was happy for a while after getting this lucky break.

Plenty of money, few chores, all at home.

My luck is absolutely incredible.

"From a purely rational perspective, what you said does make sense."

"Snap!" With the sound of snapping fingers, the girl was surprised to find that there was someone sitting on her bed, as if he had been sitting there all along, but she had just strangely ignored him.

What surprised the girl even more was that she knew this person.

"Chen Luo! What are you doing here?" The girl suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

Damn it, didn't the intelligence say it might be an A-level talent related to wind? What the hell is going on?

Is this Grade A?

Is this a wind element?

“But the fact is that Yvette’s disappearance is indeed related to me.” Chen Luo said as he sat up in bed and gently touched the sheets.

Then a figure appeared instantly and lay perfectly still on the bed.

She was a beautiful blonde girl with a stunning figure. Her clothes were slightly disheveled, which only made her more alluring. Most importantly, she couldn't speak.

After all, the other person's words really attract hatred.

She's beautiful, but unfortunately she can talk.

And now that the other person can't speak, it becomes perfect.

"Ah, my eyes hurt so much! My eye condition has suddenly flared up!" Just as Chen Luo took out Yvette, the girl suddenly screamed, covered her eyes, and started rolling on the ground.

"She's young, quick-witted, and has a lot of clever tricks up her sleeve, but she's not very smart." Chen Luo glanced at the girl and then ignored her.

Chen Luo bent down and carefully examined the war angel Yvette.

It has to be said that Yves is indeed very beautiful, there's no denying that.

Chen Luo pinched the other person's chin, then squeezed their cheeks to check the body's temperature and stiffness.

Perhaps because it had been kept in his backpack, the other person was in a state that was practically the same as if he had just died. Chen Luo had never taken it out before, so he took this opportunity to do some pre-treatment.

There are many steps required to turn this war angel into a puppet, and some of them are steps that Chen Luo can do now, such as ensuring that the other party's soul does not dissipate.

Or rather, after the War Angel was brought out, the opponent's soul began to dissipate.

However, perhaps due to the correlation between the War Domain and the War Angel, the opponent's soul calculation speed was extremely slow when in the War Domain. So Chen Luo took advantage of this time to quickly take out the chocolate bar powder he had prepared in advance and start the spirit sealing technique.

The chocolate bar powder still serves as a substitute for the soul powder, but this time it's not for awakening the spirit but for sealing it.

Awakening a doll is to give it sentience, while sealing a doll is to prevent the soul of a dead doll from dissipating.

During the time Chen Luo spent awakening Dudu's spirit, he thoroughly reviewed the spirit awakening and spirit sealing techniques. Only after successfully awakening Dudu's spirit did Chen Luo feel confident enough to seal Yvette's spirit, and now was the perfect time to do so.

Compared to the Puppet Master skill, Spirit Awakening, which requires constant micro-management, Spirit Sealing only requires starting the spell and then you can simply wait for the sorcerer to complete it.

The girl who hadn't been acknowledged by Chen Luo froze for a moment after hearing the silent comment, then continued to roll around covering her eyes, but this time in a different direction—she was rolling towards the outside of the room.

"No problem, I just crushed the communication jade talisman and notified the bishop. As long as I get out of the room, I can escape immediately!" The girl continued to cry and scream as she rolled out of the room.

Although the girl didn't know why Chen Luo had suddenly gone crazy and ignored her, this was a perfect opportunity to escape.

As for not being able to escape?

LOL. If you're not in a confined space, escaping would be incredibly easy, wouldn't it?

You should know that the girl was recruited into the church by the people of the underworld through her own talent.

As for the girl's talent, it will surprise you: A-level talent: Presence.

They can freely control their own presence, making them natural-born masters of stealth.

Furthermore, the girl has an exceptional talent for cultivating spiritual power and a considerable degree of affinity with holy light, so she might be able to enter the Inquisition in the future.

Although the trial courts generally do the dirty and tiring work, they are given the most resources and have the highest combat power, but of course, the mortality rate is also the highest.

But as long as I have a low profile, they won't assign me difficult tasks.

As long as you escape this confined room and squat anywhere until the bishops arrive, you'll be perfectly fine.

"Hahaha! This time we've found evidence that the other party is the murderer of Yvette. As long as I wait patiently for the bishop and the others to arrive, my reward will be huge!"

My best friend wasn't lying after all. After taking on this task, I really did become very successful. I must treat her to many meals later!

"...This person has so many inner monologues!" Chen Luo, who was casting the Spirit Sealing Technique, couldn't help but glance sideways at the girl who was standing there grinning foolishly.

"Bang!" Suddenly, the powder in Chen Luo's hand exploded, almost smearing Chen Luo's face.

"Damn it, I got distracted and failed, but it's okay, I prepared 10 sets of materials." After glaring at the silly kid next to him who was bewitched by the power of the Herrscher of Knowledge, Chen Luo continued with the Spirit Sealing Technique.

The second attempt at the Spirit Sealing Technique learned from the failure of the first attempt, and with focused concentration, it was executed quite smoothly, and the Spirit Sealing Technique was successfully completed in no time.

Next, we just need to wait patiently.

After successfully casting the Spirit Sealing Technique, Yvette had a slightly ethereal, jet-black flame emblem shining between her brows.

This is the imprint left after using different types of soul powder. Since Chen Luo used dark chocolate bar powder, it is black.

Unlike casting the Spirit Awakening Technique, when casting the Spirit Sealing Technique, even chocolate powder can be used.

Once the fire emblem has completely solidified, it will prove that the sealing technique has been successful.

"Alright, next up is this little cutie. Hmm, the power of the Herrscher of Knowledge is really useful. Is that teleportation talisman right here?" After finding her side, Chen Luo pondered as he looked at her skirt.

The girl was wearing a short skirt, and it was a pleated skirt. If Chen Luo hadn't seen her hand touch this spot in the illusion and successfully use the teleportation talisman, he really wouldn't have believed that this skirt, which looked like it had no pockets, actually had pockets.

"I really didn't expect this." Chen Luo complained as he placed his hand on the other person's skirt and began to feel around.

Chen Luo first felt something on the other person's skirt, and then determined the location of the pocket based on the location of the item.

Why does a skirt have pockets? That's so strange.

However, it is indeed difficult to guard against.

After being fumbled around for half a minute, I finally managed to unzip the zipper and take the item out.

This so-called teleportation jade talisman is only half the size of a palm and looks rather fragile; it can be crushed with a little force.

Chen Luo played with it in his hand while using the Void Treasury ability to copy it.

Chen Luo instinctively felt that this thing was a good tool for scheming.

For disposable items like these, if you use the Herrscher of Reason's ability to replicate them, crushing them will have the same effect as crushing the original, since they are both disposable anyway.

Since these people doubt me so much, I'll go all out and gather everyone in that place, then wipe them all out.

As for how to wipe them all out... Chen Luo needs to think about it carefully and see if he can project 100 insane, modified thermobaric bombs.

Even the most invincible person, who has mastered the Golden Bell Shield to the highest level, will pale in comparison to the magic penetration glory of the ruthless, modified version of the Cloud Burst Bomb.

Little J has burned you.

As for this unfortunate kid in front of me, grinning foolishly...

Although Chen Luo knew that the other party was only thinking about making a fortune and wanted to pick on the weak, he couldn't help but think that she had chosen him.

Moreover, her best friend's divination wasn't entirely wrong; Chen Luo could indeed give her a chance to rise to prominence.

Whether they die young or rise to great heights depends on the other party's decision.

Chen Luo snapped his fingers again in front of the other party, dispelling the illusion that had been set up from the very beginning.

"Huh?" The girl, who was obediently squatting in the storage room in the illusion, acting as a vase, suddenly felt a change in front of her. The person she least wanted to see appeared in front of her.

"Ugh!!! You, you, you..."

"How did I end up here, right?"

"I I I..."

“That’s right, young lady, you’ve fallen under the illusion. Don’t be surprised. Alright, young lady, now that you’ve seen my biggest secret, I have a question for you.” Chen Luo took a half step back and sat down next to Yvette, speaking to the girl.

"Don't even think about escaping with your ability to diminish your presence. How can you be so sure we're not in another illusion right now?" Chen Luo said, pointing out the other person's thoughts as their eyes darted around.

"...Um, big brother, I promise, I will never tell anyone about this. Please give me a way out, okay?" The girl, whose thoughts had been noticed by the other party, said to Chen Luo with tears in her eyes.

The girl's heart sank even further when she discovered that Chen Luo was still holding a communication jade talisman.

"A way out? Of course!" Chen Luo nodded.

"Now I'm giving you two paths: one of life, one of death. The path of death is that you fight to the bitter end, and then I'll turn you into a puppet, erase all your self-awareness, and then reshape a new consciousness, causing you to completely perish in this world, and letting another you replace you, replace your life, replace your job, replace everything about you..."

"B-Big brother, can you stop scaring me like that?" The girl was startled when she heard this, and then she glanced at Yvette lying on the bed like a corpse, and shuddered again.

"Don't call me 'big brother,' you're a year older than me, okay?"

"Then... Boss? What's the other way?" the girl asked tremblingly.

I've only been involved in the underworld for half a year, and they're already putting me through such a tense and exciting activity?

“Another way is for you to behave a little more obediently, and then I’ll turn you into a puppet, but let you retain your self-awareness…”

"Wait, why have I turned into a doll again?" The girl suddenly mustered up her courage and interrupted Chen Luo.

"Then what if I said I'd just let you go and ask you to keep it a secret? Would you keep it a secret? Tell me the truth, I can read minds."

"Uh, no," the girl said dejectedly.

"That settles it then."

"But...but turning into a doll or something..."

"Don't be so resistant, girl. You've already become a doll, haven't you?" Chen Luo comforted her.

"Huh?" The girl was taken aback.

"Snap!" Chen Luo snapped his fingers again.

The girl suddenly felt the scenery in front of her go black...

When the girl struggled to open her eyes, she found herself trapped in a cocoon, the silk threads breaking as she struggled slightly.

"Yes, welcome to this world, number 4." A hand was extended to the girl.

Chapter 187 A-Rank Talent: Kato Megumi

"What am I..." The girl involuntarily placed her hand on the outstretched hand, while her other hand tore at the fragile threads on her body.

"Since you've agreed to become my puppet, I'll naturally help you rise to prominence. You can rest assured about that." Chen Luo patted the other person's head with satisfaction with his other hand.

"A doll...a doll?! Wait, when did I agree to become your doll?" The girl rubbed her temples in annoyance before realizing what Chen Luo had said, and exclaimed in surprise.

"Sigh, but... but you have no room to object, after all, whether you agree or not, you have to become my puppet." Chen Luo said innocently.

"Or do you intend for me to erase all your consciousness and create a new you? If you insist, I might agree, although it will take a bit of work..." Chen Luo said, stroking his chin.

"No, don't say such scary things. My life is still going strong... I'm about to reach the pinnacle of my life..." the girl said, on the verge of tears.

To think that I, a promising young man, haven't even reached the pinnacle of my life and enjoyed my university years, and I've already become someone else's puppet—this is just too tragic.

"But the problem is that you'll reach the pinnacle of life, but I'll be the stepping stone. If you don't take this mission, someone else will become my puppet. So greed is one of the greatest original sins in life."

"This, this..." The girl was speechless after being refuted.

If she had truly discovered that Chen Luo was indeed the murderer of Yvette, the girl would very likely report him to the bishop.

As for the probability? Probably around 99%.

If that's the case, then it is undoubtedly a stepping stone.

"Sigh, I've only been in the underworld for half a year, and I've already experienced its cruelty..." The girl felt a bit resentful.

Of course, she was also secretly resenting her best friend.

Damn it, they said that if I took on this task, I might rise to great heights!

At the time, he confidently declared that participating in the Yvette incident would surely bring him gains, or even be the biggest turning point in his life, allowing him to rise to prominence.

Is the biggest turning point in life really just a turning point? There are indeed turning points, but they are definitely a sharp decline.

They just wiped out everyone!

Or did you misunderstand the other party's meaning? Was it possible that the other party didn't want you to take on this seemingly easy task that was all lucrative and harmless?
