Their commission was suspicious.

Did Chen Luo refuse the commission?

"What are you looking at? Even I have my limits." Chen Luo patted the little fox's head.

"Aww, aww." The little fox rubbed against Chen Luo's palm in a coquettish manner.

The little fox didn't want that person to touch it either.

Not everyone is qualified to touch the fox-girl form of the beautiful and intelligent Yae no Miko.

The little fox doesn't know that person, so why should she touch him?

"What is the bottom line?" Bai Zhi asked curiously.

"Hmm...it's a secret."

The minimum requirement is 10 raw gems.

Through continuous hard work and training, Chen Luo has now reached a point where he can focus intently on stones with a grade of 10 or lower.

15 raw stones wouldn't do; Chen Luo's heart would flutter at the thought of 15 raw stones.

Chen Luo has really been working hard to train his limits of endurance.

However, the current limit is still only 10 Originium.

But this is already quite good. A breakthrough from 0 to 10 is a huge improvement. Chen Luo has really done a lot.

A casual question or a momentary interest from an ordinary person is not enough to warrant a commission of more than ten Originium.

This is actually the normal level of commission.

What are there in this world that are so many romantic entanglements, love and hate, life and death matters, or lofty ideals?

To be fair, Chen Luo didn't dislike that classmate; she just had the vanity and laziness typical of girls at her stage of life.

But Chen Luo also didn't like her.

Furthermore, with the ability to detect and see through people's hearts, Chen Luo wanted to avoid encountering certain people even more, to avoid getting angry.

At the same high school age, Chen Luo always felt that Mei's perfection had reached a level that could be described as fantastical.

How can there be such a perfect high school girl to be a girlfriend?

That girl wasn't a bad person; she was just an ordinary person who was generally likable due to her slightly attractive appearance, but it depended on who she was compared to.

Mei, my Mei...

"We've finished the enrollment procedures, Xiaoruo. What are we going to do next?" Sylvia asked excitedly.

It's so nice not having my younger sister around to keep an eye on me!

I'm clearly the older sister!

"Ring ring." Chen Luo's phone rang before he could even speak.

"Hello, is this Mr. Chen? Do you know Bai Qiqi? If you are acquainted with Miss Bai Qiqi, could you please come over..."

“It’s me, Chen Luo,” Chen Luo said.

"Ah, Mr. Traveler? Sorry, I might have dialed the wrong number. This is the Xinghai City branch of the relevant department. Miss Bai Qiqi, who came from the Abyss Plane to the Spiritual Qi Plane, said she was here to see you? But she didn't mention your name directly at the beginning..."

Chen Luo's identity is kept under extremely high security; this staff member is not authorized to access Chen Luo's phone number.

In addition, Bai Qiqi deliberately kept it a secret, which is why this work error occurred.

If Bai Qiqi didn't keep the identity of the phone number owner confidential, she wouldn't even be able to get the staff to call Chen Luo, because Chen Luo's current identity is very sensitive and the application might be rejected.

“She may indeed be looking for me, and this phone number… is actually my personal phone number. A very personal one,” Chen Luo emphasized.

"Ah? Oh. This Miss Bai Qiqi originally wanted you to visit him at the relevant department. But this Miss Bai Qiqi may be colluding with the Abyss traitor who attacked you..." Chen Luo could feel the dilemma of the relevant department member even through the phone.

Isn't that a coincidence?

Bai Qiqi's suspicion has increased even more!

You came looking for Chen Luo, but Chen Luo was attacked as soon as you arrived...

This is no longer just a matter of being locked up for two more days.

"If I'm not mistaken, she might have come to the spiritual dimension to beat up my little fox."

"Huh?" A surprised voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Okay, tell Bai Qiqi I'm busy with something right now, but I'll visit her this afternoon. I hope she doesn't mind. Also, if there's anything Bai Qiqi wants, just text me later and I'll get it for her," Chen Luo replied.

"Ok."

"Bai Qiqi has come outside the spiritual energy?" Bai Zhi asked, somewhat surprised.

Bai Qiqi is an acquaintance.

"Could she really have come just to give the little fox a meal?" Su Yuan glanced at the little fox.

"Waaah..." The little fox chose to shrink into Chen Luo's arms.

That's terrifying! The mother fox's vengefulness is truly terrifying!

Holding the little fox, Chen Luo felt a strange sense of déjà vu when he thought about Bai Qiqi being detained by the relevant authorities and waiting for him to rescue her.

A few years ago, when I looked at that injured white fox through the iron cage, the situation seemed no different from now.

Wait, if that's the case, then wouldn't she have to repay the favor again?

Although Chen Luo had already expected Bai Qiqi to be arrested... well, let's just say there's no hope of saving her.

Another question is, how many times does one need to save someone before the debt of gratitude reaches the point of wanting to repay them with one's own body?

Is it possible to repay someone with one's body in a single encounter?

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! If I were to repay you with my body after saving you only once, wouldn't I have to repay you twice if you saved me twice?"

Ha. Superficial!

Chapter 1256 The world is about to be destroyed, and you still want to go to school?!

"Six milk teas, please." Chen Luo stood in the milk tea shop at school, gazing at the campus brimming with youthful energy.

In the week before the end of summer vacation, some freshmen who are curious about the school and seniors who are eager to start club activities will come to visit the campus they have been away from for a long time. If they don't have any other work during the vacation, starting work early will not have any impact on these staff members.

After all, it's common knowledge that money is easiest to earn in schools.

Although Xinghai No. 1 Middle School is not a completely closed school, it still has a lot of students who love to eat, have little free time, and are too lazy to go outside the school to buy milk tea.

"Oh, it's Chen Luo! By the way, do you know how to fix machines?" The lady at the bubble tea shop's eyes lit up when she saw Chen Luo.

"Sister Liang, I'm a student, not a repairman."

"The milk tea is free once it's fixed."

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"Although I am not a repairman, I happen to have some knowledge of repairing simple machinery."

Chen Luo's female classmate only posted a request for 20 Primogems, but this lady from the milk tea shop posted one for 20 Primogems!

Chen Luo was confident that he could fix the machine problem before the milk tea was even made.

“I’ve heard from my classmates that they can ask me for help if they encounter any problems, and I never thought it would actually be useful.”

"..."

Not knowing how to respond to the older woman's question, Chen Luo could only focus his attention on the machine in front of him.

The machine problem was simple; I tinkered with it and fixed it.

Chen Luo naturally received 6 cups of milk tea and 20 Primogems as a reward.

Looking at the older sister in front of him who felt a little apologetic for ordering him around, Chen Luo felt as if he were seeing his classmates from the beginning.

However, if things had continued as before, this older sister would have quickly become familiar with ordering Chen Luo around.

There is no love or hate without a reason in the world. The help that his classmates gave Chen Luo was taken for granted could also be said to be caused by Chen Luo himself.

Of course, Chen Luo didn't think it was his fault. He was just helping people, and if anyone was to blame, it was those people who weren't mentally strong enough.

Busy – that’s the perfect summary of Chen Luo’s two years of high school life.

And it might not be understood.

But even during the summer vacation when he had almost said goodbye to high school life, Chen Luo's life was still busy.

But Chen Luo enjoyed it.

"Sigh." Taking the six cups of milk tea he deserved, Chen Luo's final sigh seemed like a final farewell to his past life.

Chen Luo was very fortunate that his first commission this semester was one that rewarded him, rather than something he was entitled to for free.

Otherwise, Chen Luo, in a fit of temper, might blow up his own school.

Although Chen Luo kept saying that he obtained the Primal Stones by completing the mission and that both parties got what they wanted, he still harbored some resentment towards some people who took it for granted and got it for free.

God knows how much psychological trauma this would cause to a 17-year-old boy, whose happiest years should have been spent so busy...

Okay, it wasn't very big, just a bit tiring.

Since he knew that doing those 1000 good deeds wouldn't be easy, Chen Luo didn't push himself too hard.

When Chen Luo first acquired his talent, it was like he was playing a brand new open-world game. He was genuinely interested in exploring new areas, completing quests, and progressing through the main and side quests. However, after playing for two years, this interest gradually waned, and each day became just a routine...

Although Chen Luo received unexpected rewards two years later, it did not prevent him from feeling irritable at times during those two mechanical and unpaid years.

In fact, Chen Luo was only feeling irritable at the time, which was already quite remarkable.

Fortunately, whenever Chen Luo felt his frustration level was about to reach its peak, he would always receive an unexpected reward after completing a task, making him feel that his efforts were worthwhile.

For example, after saving Bai Zhi, Bai Zhi expressed her gratitude to Chen Luo and showed a very friendly attitude.

For example, after studying medicine with Sylvia and teaching her Chinese, Sylvia expressed her gratitude and offered a considerable amount of material compensation (milk tea, lollipops, snacks, chocolate).

For example, after helping Liu Wenxuan learn how to fight back against school bullying, Liu Wenxuan would deliberately take a detour to accompany Chen Luo home from school for a long time.

For example, Yunxia, ​​Yunlian'er, Aunt Anliu...

For example, the six cups of milk tea that Chen Luo is currently holding.

That's why Chen Luo said his campus life had a pretty perfect beginning and ending.

Chen Luo will probably take on fewer missions at the school in the future. It's not that Chen Luo won't do the missions after receiving them, but rather that Chen Luo probably won't come to the school anymore and won't run into anyone there, so he naturally won't be able to take on any missions.

Unless Chen Luo's talent suddenly releases an event that encourages him to study hard and rewards him with a large number of Primal Stones, Chen Luo really can't bear to part with those readily available Primal Stones from another world.

Chen Luo might indeed come to the school to experience campus life, but most of the time it will be the puppets filling in for him while Chen Luo wanders around in the other world.

The world is about to end, and you're still in school?!

Although this might mean missing out on the crucial final year of high school, Chen Luo believes that the less of this kind of struggle, the better.

Chen Luo has been exhausted enough these past two months.

Chen Luo has helped others about the same number of times in the past two months as he has in the past two years.

This is limited to genuine help, not using items the recipient likes to complete quests. Otherwise, there might be even more. (Venti: ???)

"The future, oh the future, what mysterious direction will my future take?" Chen Luo muttered to himself.

"How old are you? You're already thinking about the future. You should focus on improving your talent to SS level, or finding a suitable way to increase your combat power. Do you need me to help you find a suitable cultivation method in the church's collection? I can give you my insider price." Sylvia snatched the milk tea from Chen Luo's hand, patted Chen Luo's shoulder, and said in a pretentious manner.

"SS-level talent? My 'Breaking the Cocoon' talent is still a long way from becoming an SS-level talent. Forget about me, you should be thinking about how to break through to S-level first. Are you confident?" Chen Luo asked.

"Well... it feels like we're almost at the pinnacle of A-level talent, but we don't have any ideas on how to break through to S-level talent yet, since there's no experience to follow. Everyone's talent is unique... but I think that obtaining something about Saint Raphael might help with breaking through talent. Well, this isn't something you, a Chinese talent user, should worry about."

"If I become an S-rank talent user, your talent level won't be as high as mine. Be careful, I might surpass you," Sylvia said casually.

"If your talent level surpasses mine, that's quite difficult, but you can give it a try. What if you succeed?"

Chen Luo was somewhat disappointed that he hadn't received any commission from Sylvia.

Chen Luo wasn't planning to complete any commissions this time; he genuinely just wanted to acquire some Primogems while helping Sylvia.

Logically speaking, given the relationship between Chen Luo and Sylvia, there should be no problem in telling her that Chen Luo is the river god.

The relationship between Sylvia and Yvette, in particular, can be described as quite close.

but……

[Confidentiality Agreement]: Keep the secret that Yvette has become Chen Luo's puppet.
