Their commission was suspicious.

“Your Excellency, now it’s finally proven that Chen Luo wasn’t involved in your Yvette’s death, right? If that’s the case, shouldn’t you make some kind of compensation?” Yun Xia put away the dragon-shaped jade pendant in her hand and looked at the cardinal with hostility.

"You need to understand just how serious it is to offend three S-level talents at once, especially since they unintentionally created Liu Wenxuan's talent. You should also understand that if Liu Wenxuan goes crazy, he really is capable of doing something like tearing the Vatican down."

Although Yun Xia doesn't like to bring up Yun Lian'er, if Yun Lian'er knew about this, she might go even crazier than Liu Wenxuan.

Compared to herself, the other party was the real witch.

Chapter 62 I'll remember this grudge! (4K)

The elderly man in the white suit with slightly graying hair turned to look at Yun Xia and said, "I understand. I will deliver the compensation to the other party in another way afterward."

It is common knowledge that cardinals do not wear red robes.

Of course, the most important thing is that wearing a full red outfit in modern times is too eye-catching, especially during such a sensitive period. It's better to keep a low profile.

Although the Cardinal knew that with the current information about Chen Luo's strength, it was impossible for him to harm Yvette in the slightest, he was indeed the prime suspect, or at least the prime suspect known so far.

Yun Xia and Liu Wenxuan may not know, but surely the Cardinal knows?

The purpose of this War Angel's visit was not simply to fight against an S-class talent. If he didn't do something excessive, how could he provoke the other S-class talents to retaliate at all costs?

As it stands, the simplest way to provoke the other party's anger is to kill Chen Luo.

Yun Xia and Liu Wenxuan might think that Yvette had some kind of dignity as a strong person, but the Cardinal knew that she definitely did not.

Therefore, even at the risk of offending three S-class talents, the protagonist in red still had to send someone to find out what the other party was capable of.

Of course, at the same time, scouts were also sent to investigate all other potential targets.

Although less than 10 minutes had passed since Yvette's death, the church's reaction was remarkably swift.

"Oh, right, remember to do the other person's homework as well. Make sure the best note-taking imitator does it, so the teacher won't notice anything amiss," Yunxia said to the cardinal as she stood up at the edge of the rooftop.

Where in the world is there a machine that can perfectly mimic handwriting for homework?

This was simply the result of Yunxia discovering that someone was picking a fight with Chen Luo, and then negotiating with that person.

The other party used the excuse of collecting homework to briefly contact Chen Luo, and after it was proven that Chen Luo was innocent, they also had to give Chen Luo a lot of compensation.

Although Chen Luo is not an S-level talent, the key is that Yun Xia and Liu Wenxuan have enough influence.

Especially Liu Wenxuan—this ruthless man who, when he gets brave, actually dares to upend the Vatican.

As for whether Chen Luo could actually kill the other party...

As Yunxia jumped from a height of 100 meters, a pair of wings appeared behind her. At the same time, an older sister, whom only Yunxia could clearly see, flew in from a distance.

Just as the older sister flying in the air was about to collide with Yunxia, ​​she instantly transformed into a gentle breeze, helping Yunxia break through the upper limit of her flight speed.

The older sister who came was sent by Yunxia to the vicinity of Chen Luo's house when Yunxia learned that Chen Luo had become a focus of attention.

As one of the four most precious elemental cards in Yunxia, ​​and having the same attribute as Chen Luo, the Wind Card, even if he can't beat the man in the suit, can still escape with its blessing.

Yunxia had also approached the Cardinal early on to keep an eye on him and prevent him from playing any underhanded tricks.

Although Yunxia didn't think Chen Luo could kill Yvette, it's better to be prepared.

But thinking about it, if we could take down Yvette, crushing that man in the suit would be as easy as an ant, right?

It's impossible for someone to defeat Yvette but not the man in the suit, right?

One punch knocks out a dragon, but then he gets killed by a brown bear's sneeze...

"Phew, they're finally gone." Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief after the faint surveillance disappeared.

The good news is that the surveillance only stayed outside the room and did not intrude into the room, which at least gave Chen Luo some privacy.

"I have a feeling that I've managed to fool that man in the suit."

Chen Luo wasn't stupid. He strongly suspected that the man in the suit was there to test him, while the wind-elemental token that could clearly sense the power of the wind element must have come to protect him.

Chen Luo felt that he had become the focus of the game between the two sides, but now they should have shifted their attention.

"Buzz!" A slight vibration sounded, and Chen Luo realized that his phone was ringing again.

However, this time it wasn't Yunxia, ​​but...

"Oh no, could it be that I was caught taking Dad's collection? No, that shouldn't be the case, he hasn't come back." Chen Luo muttered to himself as he answered the phone.

"My dear father, is there something you need to talk to about your son, whose birth was an accident?" Chen Luo asked preemptively as soon as he answered the phone.

Regardless of the other party's motives, once you've made the call, it's always best to take the initiative.

"Hey, my dear son, I've only been away from home for a while, and you're already making sarcastic remarks? You know your old man, your mother, is an archaeologist. This kind of work usually involves traveling all over the world, not a honeymoon for us." A slightly flippant male voice rang out.

Clearly, Chen Luo's father wasn't a very mature adult, otherwise he wouldn't have collected three sets of gashapon toys.

I'm a long-time collector, and maybe even a bit into anime and manga.

"Hmm, let me guess, my mom is next to me, right?" Chen Luo said after a 0.1-second pause.

"Son, you're so smart," a gentle female voice said.

"..."

The fact that a father, who has never had a strong will to survive, could be forced to change his address from "Mom" to "Young, Beautiful, and Charming Mother" can only prove that some greater crisis is pressuring him.

"Why did you suddenly decide to call today? Are you planning to come back early?"

Holy crap, are we coming back early? How am I going to explain to them that we suddenly have a cousin in our family?

Or should we let Xiaoshi stay inside our body every day?

"Oh, no, it's just that I figured you should be on summer vacation, so I called to ask about your plans. But I can tell you'll probably be staying home or doing volunteer work, right? In that case..."

"Stop, stop, wait a minute, I was planning to go on a trip this summer vacation." Chen Luo quickly interrupted his mother.

"What? You're going on a trip? What about your cousin?" A surprised voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Cousin? I have a cousin? Where did she come from?" Chen Luo was completely bewildered.

Chen Luo didn't know the situation in other people's homes, and it seemed that he had never actually had any relatives come to visit, let alone a cousin who came from who-knows-where.

Chen Luo had never even met his grandparents or maternal grandparents...

"Your grandparents and maternal grandparents have gone to a very far place..."

Doesn't that sound like he's passed away?

As clever as Chen Luo was, he never brought up such a thing again since he was a child. After all, Chen Luo did not want to touch his parents' hearts, which were already broken beyond repair.

"Your cousin is a bit far off, so I won't explain it to you. Anyway, you really do have a cousin. She said she was going to come visit this summer, so I recommended our city. I thought you'd stay home... How about you don't go on the trip?"

"Mom, don't you think what you're saying is a bit... unfair to me? I finally wanted to go on a trip, and not only did you not support me, but you also made me stay at home to entertain some cousin, a complete stranger?" Chen Luo quickly refused.

"Alright then, I'll help you reject her. But Xiao Luo, are you sure you can go on this trip by yourself? How about coming to join your parents for some archaeological work? Archaeology is so much fun!"

"Where are you now?" Chen Luo asked casually.

"Greenland, next stop is the Arctic," Chen Luo's father said.

"What? The Arctic! Nobody wants to go there, it's freezing cold." Chen Luo quickly rejected the suggestion.

Although I wasn't planning on going at all, after hearing about the location, I'm even less inclined to go.

"Oh, okay then. By the way, Xiao Luo, do you like foxes?"

"fox?"

"Yes, it's the injured little fox you bought at the market when you were in junior high. You raised it for a whole summer. It was white and very cute. Later, its owner took it back and gave our family a lot of money. Recently, the owner said they have to go on a business trip and don't have time to take care of it. They want you to help take care of it and they're even offering to pay you. So, are you interested in taking it on a trip?"

"Mom, do you have some kind of misunderstanding about travel? Who brings a fox on a trip?" Chen Luo said after a moment of silence.

"Besides, it's been several years now, it should have grown into a big fox by now, right? It's really inconvenient to carry around."

"Alright, alright, if you insist, then forget it. Oh, by the way, I'll send you some more money later. Just ask me if you need more. Remember not to skimp on yourself during the trip. Spend money where you need to, and help out whenever you see an opportunity," Chen Luo's mother nagged on.

"Okay, okay." Chen Luo nodded.

"Alright, since you're going on a trip and won't be home, we won't be going back this month."

"Okay, Mom. By the way, have a great time in the Arctic, and please take a picture of a penguin for me."

"Okay, good son. Wait a minute, where are penguins in the Arctic?"

"So after you've finished exploring the Arctic, why don't you take a trip to Antarctica as well?"

"what?"

In short, just don't come back.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Luo turned around and went upstairs to the second floor, returned to his room, and began packing his belongings.

After all, if you're going to travel, you should act like you're going to travel.

And why doesn't traveling to another world count as traveling?

Besides, Chen Heng is going to the Honkai World tomorrow to fight Honkai Beasts, and it will take several days. How can he not be prepared?

That's right, Chen Luo plans to stay in the Honkai world for a while longer. According to Chen Luo's deduction, those assassins and Honkai beasts should also be considered enemies. Since they are enemies, he can kill them to get Primal Stones. Since he can kill them to get Primal Stones, then don't blame Chen Luo for showing no mercy.

Chen Luo plans to check the returns. If the returns are suitable, he intends to spend the entire summer vacation in Changkong City.

Although Chen Luo didn't know the permanent population of Changkong City, since it was a large city, it naturally had a large population.

It's not certain that one person could wipe out Changkong City in 45 days of slaughter, at least not for Chen Luo. After all, while killing those assassins and Honkai Beasts, he also had to avoid those more advanced Honkai Beasts.

Therefore, all kinds of supplies need to be prepared.

In short, as long as there are raw stones to earn, Chen Luo has opened up not only Changkong City, but the entire Honkai World for him.

Moreover, just to make it look like a proper event, Chen Luo also bought a lot of food, water, and tents.

Although Chen Luo could eat and stay in bars if he were to actually travel, most of these things were just performances for other people to see.

Furthermore, in Changkong City, some food and water might be able to revive some of those who did not die in the Third Honkai Impact.

Of course, Chen Luo wasn't trying to be a completely good person, but in life-or-death situations, these people always seem to unleash their greatest desires, which is to earn raw stones.

Speaking of a city as big as Changkong, do you think there are any gold shops?

While others profit from war and national calamities, Chen Luo profits from the end times.

Anyway, I'll ask Theresa for a detailed map of Changkong City later.

As for the items Chen Luo bought on Taobao that cost half of his savings, they should arrive by tomorrow morning.

While thinking about Chen Luo, she started preparing dinner.

Although you can buy materials or finished products directly in Chen Luo's bar, it still costs raw stones. Even though it's only 0.1 raw stone, isn't 0.1 raw stone still raw stone?

Besides, cooking and eating at home gives you a greater sense of home.

This was Xiaoshi's strong request.

"I'm back." The voice of the Herrscher of Knowledge rang out, followed by the sound of the door being pushed open and the person entering.

"Welcome back. You must be tired after a long day of searching for food. So, should we eat first, then take a shower, or eat... me first?"

"??? Something's not right with you."

"No, I feel perfectly fine."

"Then I'll eat first." Seeing Chen Luo suddenly fall ill for some unknown reason, the Lawyer of Knowledge said decisively.

"Tsk."

"What the hell are you talking about!"

……

"Theresa, remember to find me a complete and detailed map of Changkong City. As the granddaughter of the Bishop of Destiny, you can surely do this, right?" Chen Luo said to Theresa, who had come to the store early, as he handed her a glass of bitter melon juice.

"What? You're already on summer vacation? Are you going to help me find my niece? And how do you know she's in Changkong City?" Theresa asked three deadly questions while drinking bitter melon juice.

“Summer vacation just started, I’ll go see your niece tomorrow. As for why Changkong City… sorry, it’s a trade secret. And it’s not necessarily Changkong City, just that it’s very likely.” Chen Luo shook his head.

“Oh.” Theresa nodded.

Since they want a map, just give them one. And since they promised to bring their niece back, let them go.

Although Theresa felt this was a long-term job, since it didn't cost any money, why not let the other person give it a try?

"jingle!"
