Their commission was suspicious.

But then Abby continued to enjoy the feeling of the breeze flowing into her mouth.

Chen Luo was actually quite curious: if the wind blew into the hole in Abby's forehead, would it make a whimpering sound?

However, given that this cave is related to SS-level talents, it should not be affected by the wind, so Chen Luo could only give up his curiosity and get down to business.

Chen Luo looked down at the enormous thing beneath his feet.

This is the main reason why Chen Luo came to slay the Crimson World; chatting with the young emperor was simply to check on his mission progress.

However, to Chen Luo's surprise, in addition to the Empire's rebirth progress bar reaching 85%, the Revolutionary Army's rise progress had also reached 10%.

Later, Chen Luo learned the reason from the young emperor—as time went by, more and more prefects of cities outside the capital learned about the tremendous changes that had taken place in the capital.

While the spread of the news may have curbed the wickedness of some city governors, it can sometimes have the opposite effect, such as causing some officials to surrender to the revolutionary army after hearing the news.

A very typical case of a guilty conscience.

The reason why the revolutionary army's rise has reached 10% is not only due to the surrender faction, but also because some nobles who secretly funded the revolutionary army increased their investment.

Under the influence of these grants, the revolutionary army did indeed achieve a rapid rise.

The revolutionary army was not purely revolutionary; rather, many of its members were shrewd old nobles who had invested in it. After discovering that the revolutionary army was growing stronger, they simply placed all their bets on it.

This was also so that they could get a bigger share of the spoils after the war.

However, the Revolutionary Army's defeat was already inevitable. Even without Chen Luo feeding many high-ranking members of the Revolutionary Army orange juice, and given that the Empire would not get any worse, the Revolutionary Army would not have had any chance to turn the tide.

At best, this is just a last gasp for the revolutionary army.

Chen Luo originally planned to go to Anning Dao to collect faith power, but unexpectedly, after the Black Feather Descends and the Judgment Angel incident, the leader of Anning Dao actually planned to come to the capital in person and submitted an application to the young emperor through officials.

So Chen Luo can just make time to see him later.

As for the deputy leader of Anningdao, that minister's distant relative... he absconded with the money.

They ran away quite decisively.

Since even the ministers are gone, it's better not to be an undercover agent!

Therefore, Chen Luo had the opportunity to look for things that interested him during his spare time.

For example, the giant dragon beneath Chen Luo's feet—the East Sea Cloud Dragon.

"Alright, let's continue talking about being friends." Chen Luo's body floated up from Donghai Yunlong's neck to in front of Donghai Yunlong, and then moved a little distance away.

This way, it will be more comfortable for either Chen Luo to look at Donghai Yunlong or for Donghai Yunlong to look at Chen Luo.

“To be friends with a dangerous species, a strange person, and also a mysterious person.” The dragon in front of Chen Luo spoke in human language.

While it might not seem strange for giant beasts to speak human language in a world teeming with monsters, ordinary Dangerous Species in the world of Akame ga Kill! do not exhibit this ability at all.

However, this can be considered a privilege of the ultimate dangerous species. Special dangerous species that have reached the pinnacle of all species have the ability to communicate in a single night.

"I don't have any other hobbies, I just like to travel around and make more friends," Chen Luo said openly.

This is nothing to hide, and it's not a lie.

Making friends is a very important thing. Friends can not only provide you with a lot of quests, gems and special rewards, but they can also be summoned by the Summoning Bell as your henchmen.

And the best part is that friends can also be used as consumables...

Many of Chen Luo's abilities can be described as special attacks against his friends.

In a sense, those who are friends with Chen Luo are experiencing both pain and joy.

You'll be happy because Chen Luo will genuinely help you; you'll be miserable because if you offend Chen Luo, he has several ways to make you question your existence.

“But I have no interest in being your friend. For the sake of that feather, before I change my mind, take the little girl around my neck and leave.” Donghai Yunlong’s voice suddenly turned cold.

"Sigh, since you said it's for the sake of the feather, shouldn't you grant me one request?" A black feather appeared in Chen Luo's hand.

Black feathers imbued with the power of holy light.

Looking at the feather and the power attached to it, a hint of apprehension flashed in Donghai Yunlong's eyes.

If the winged human could only use this special power, the East Sea Cloud Dragon wouldn't be too afraid, since its thick skin and tough flesh are one of its advantages.

But the giant sword that fell from the sky by the human with black feathered wings made Donghai Yunlong very wary.

"I promised the owner of the feather that if anyone came to me with the feather, I would try my best to grant them one wish, but I'm going back on my word now," said Donghai Yunlong.

This is the conversation between Mercury Lamp and East Sea Cloud Dragon above the clouds before the clouds completely burst open and black feathers began to fall from the sky.

Given the damage caused to the capital and the emotional distress inflicted on everyone by Donghai Yunlong's sudden appearance, Donghai Yunlong is required to provide compensation.

In fact, given Donghai Yunlong's lifestyle, compensation would definitely not be his concern, but who told Donghai Yunlong that he couldn't beat Suigintou?

The Void Sword God truly stunned Donghai Yunlong.

That's why Suigintou and Donghai Unryu made a pact to use the black feather in their hands as proof that they would help the person holding the black feather fulfill their wish.

Chen Luo's appearance was not a direct flight from the Empire to the clouds above the East China Sea, but rather a flight via a teleportation anchor point.

Chen Luo had Mercury Lamp insert a teleportation anchor into Donghai Yunlong's body while he was beating Donghai Yunlong.

The East Sea Cloud Dragon's body is really big, so there's no problem inserting several teleportation anchor points.

"Seriously? You're going back on your word already? So untrustworthy?"

This was actually the first time Chen Luo had ever seen someone break a contract. Normally, Chen Luo would use a contract book when making agreements with others.

However, given the circumstances surrounding Mercury Lamp and Tokai Unryu, using the Book of Contracts was not feasible, so a verbal agreement was made instead.

But Chen Luo didn't expect that the other party would break their verbal agreement on their first occasion.

hiss.

The world is going to the dogs; people's hearts are no longer what they used to be.

These days, you can't even trust what a dragon says.

"I still have a sense of contractual obligation, otherwise I wouldn't have said I'd let you two go. Although I don't know how you suddenly appeared in front of me, I don't think either of you can beat me," Donghai Yunlong said calmly.

"But you have to give a reason for breaking the contract, right?"

"Reason? I suspect you're trying to scam me. Is that reason enough?" Donghai Yunlong said with a long face.

"Oh, why do you say that?"

"What kind of coincidence is this? Everything was fine everywhere else, but it happened in the capital city of Beijing. And the sudden blood moon didn't affect anyone else much, but it had a huge impact on me! I suspect you did this on purpose! You deliberately created this special scene, then deliberately drove me crazy, then deliberately beat me up, and then made me give up a wish."

"If it weren't for the fact that I find you somewhat agreeable, anyone else who came here wouldn't be leaving alive!"

Ever since returning from the capital, Donghai Yunlong has felt increasingly uneasy.

Wasn't that blood moon a bit too much of a target?

Donghai Yunlong even suspected that this was all a setup!

Even if it wasn't a setup, I was definitely being used!

It was only because the person in front of him seemed pleasing to the eye, and the angel's combat power made Donghai Yunlong somewhat uneasy, that Donghai Yunlong did not intend to make a move.

"Hiss..." Chen Luo gasped.

As expected of an ancient monster that has existed for thousands of years, its mind is indeed quick.

Even if a being like the East Sea Cloud Dragon, who stands at the pinnacle of all monsters, possesses innate racial advantages, it must have gone through a life-or-death struggle.

Take Kazami Yuuka for example. Even though Kazami Yuuka is known for being tyrannical and cruel, putting aside the veracity of these two labels, no one would think that Kazami Yuuka is not smart.

This is the advantage of long-lived individuals; even if their learning progress in a certain area is slow, they can eventually become masters through time and perseverance. For example, Yukari Yakumo possesses numerous proficiency-level skills and a small number of master-level skills.

Similarly, the intelligence of the terrifying and dangerous species that stand at the pinnacle of the Akame ga Kill! world should not be underestimated.

Of the 48 Imperial Arms, Lubbock's Thousand Transformations Crossed Tail is made from the hair of the East Sea Cloud Dragon above the clouds in the Far East.

Esdeath's Demonic Manifestation: Demon's Essence is inspired by a magical and dangerous species from the far north.

Chen Luo speculated that there might be at least five extremely dangerous species in the world, standing at the top of all dangerous species, located at the four extreme points of the four directions: east, south, west, and north.

Why are there five? Isn't it common knowledge that there are five Heavenly Kings?

Besides these potentially terrifying and dangerous species, other places may also be inhabited by special creatures. For example, the secret technique of Sheila's spatial imperial artifact, Shangri-La, is to banish people to the end of another dimension.

The waters of the world of Akame ga Kill! are quite deep.

"I think you might have some misunderstanding about me. Why don't we have a proper talk?" Chen Luo tried to salvage the situation.

This guess about the East Sea Dragon is partially correct, but some parts are quite far off.

Chen Luo and his group didn't set a trap on purpose; it was really just an accident at the beginning.

Chen Luo truly had no idea that the natural disaster he had attracted with that umbrella was actually the East Sea Cloud Dragon.

Chen Luo originally thought it would be some kind of massive natural disaster.

Chen Luo's original plan was to have Mercury Lamp appear to stop the massive disaster, and then send down angelic feathers. But the involvement of Donghai Yunlong made the story even more dramatic.

Therefore, Chen Luozhen did not do it on purpose.

"There's nothing to say, get lost." Donghai Yunlong said irritably.

Chen Luo has many achievements, and although the East Sea Cloud Dragon meets the requirements for achievements such as "Great Philanthropist Chen" and "Friend of Non-humans" that increase initial favorability, the effect is not obvious at present.

It's not that it's not obvious, it's just that too much negative goodwill was deducted at the beginning, and it's only now that it's barely balanced out.

"...Since you've put it that way, then don't blame me." Chen Luo sighed.

Chen Luo's purpose in coming here was not only to befriend Donghai Yunlong, but also to offer some compensation, since Donghai Yunlong had truly been unlucky.

But now you don't want compensation, and you don't want to be my friend either, which really puts me in a difficult position.

Chen Luo didn't expect everyone to be his friend; Chen Luo wasn't narcissistic.

But the dragon's friendship really worked for Chen Luo; Chen Luo even wanted to become a dragon knight.

Besides, if Donghai Yunlong had any problems or encountered any difficulties, Chen Luo felt he should really be able to help.

But now it seems that Donghai Yunlong has a deep misunderstanding of Chen Luo.

"What do you want to do?" Donghai Yunlong was already on guard.

ready!

"Snap!" Chen Luo snapped his fingers.

He's still a child!

Since the giant dragon can't handle it, let's deal with the young dragon! After all, whether a dragon qualifies as a high-level dragon depends not only on its strength but also on its life level. For the East Sea Cloud Dragon, size doesn't matter.

"Bang!" The body of the East Sea Cloud Dragon, which had been suspended in the clouds and whose size covered the sky, disappeared instantly. Abi, who had been sitting on the East Sea Cloud Dragon's neck, also fell from the sky. But Abi was not flustered at all and even planned to try bungee jumping.

Perhaps sensing Abby's excitement, a glint of light flashed in the keyhole on Abby's forehead.

Under Chen Luo's influence, Abby's sensitivity to danger seems to have decreased significantly, even to the point of being insensitive. Perhaps Chen Luo has spoiled Abby too much.

Chen Luo did indeed use the Herrscher of the Void's ghost to hold up Abby, and then scooped up the little short-legged creature that was flapping its wings in the clouds.

As expected of the East Sea Cloud Dragon, even after losing its enormous size and becoming a child, it still possesses the ability to fly among the clouds, though its posture is rather unsightly, resembling a dog paddle swimming style.

"Little friend, would you like a lollipop?" Chen Luo asked kindly, offering a lollipop to the young East Sea Dragon floating in front of him.

“…” Abby stroked her chin as she looked at her brother.

Abby suddenly felt that her current brother looked exactly like the strange uncles in the legends who lured little girls away.

"Wow!" The little girl with a pair of delicate dragon horns on her head burst into tears at Chen Luo's temptation.

Chapter 1004 Yakumo Yuuki: You actually yelled at me for her sake?

"Do all little girls who turn into children have to cry first?" Chen Luo pondered.

Thinking about it carefully, there's nothing wrong with it. After all, she's still a child, and it's normal to cry when she encounters unfamiliar environments or unfamiliar people.

Even if the dragon-horned loli in front of him hadn't changed locations and was still in the clouds of the East Sea, given Chen Luo's potential image as the mastermind behind everything in the eyes of the East Sea Cloud Dragon, it wouldn't be surprising if Chen Luo scared her to tears.

However, I really didn't realize that this East Sea Cloud Dragon was female.

"Um... what are you doing, brother?" Abby asked hesitantly.

Although Abby didn't want to say anything, she felt that what Chen Luo was doing was a little bit insane.

He went further and further down the path of crime.
