Their commission was suspicious.

Due to the special ability of Truth or Dare, and because Chen Luo didn't want to spend Primogems to break free, Chen Luo had to introduce the bar to Rick and Shubi.
"Isn't that a bit much?"
"Take this Xiao Jiu for example, she's also an unparalleled expert with the ability to manipulate time. Oh, by the way, can you destroy a star?" Chen Luo turned to Xiao Jiu and asked.
What is meant by "planet explosion"?
"Can you crush a planet? Like Earth."
"Okay, but why? What did Earth do to you?" Xiao Jiu looked at Chen Luo with a puzzled expression.
Are you dissatisfied with the world you live in now? Why would you want to destroy the Earth?
"I was just using a metaphor, a metaphor. Look, this is a planetary-level powerhouse." Chen Luo turned to introduce him to Rick and Shubi.
If even the Heavenly Emperor can't destroy a star, then Chen Luo should really start to worry about the upper limit of combat power in his world.
"Who do you think you are? If this is just a metaphor, if I were to unleash my ultimate move, I could easily manipulate the entire solar system! Besides, I'm not a destructive-type talent user," Xiao Jiu said softly.
Xiao Jiu can cause destruction, but she is not an expert in destruction. People who manipulate time generally don't have particularly high destructive power; they are more likely to use time manipulation to make someone lose their mind.
"And what about you?" Chen Luo's description gave Rick some other thoughts.
But Rick understood that it was inappropriate to place the survival of his world above the possible goodwill of others.
Rick never only assumes the worst about other worlds.
This was Rick's first encounter with other worlds.
"Me? I'm just an ordinary person. Two months ago, I couldn't even beat you. Now, although I have some fighting ability, it's just a little," Chen Luo said.
Heaven bears witness, Chen Luo is truly just a pitiful, weak, and helpless ordinary person.
Just like Dr. Mei had already conducted a physical examination on Chen Luo, but no matter what aspect she looked for, she couldn't see that Chen Luo possessed any special power.
Aside from being a bit stronger, Chen Luo is physically no different from an ordinary person.
What? Conceptualization ability?
Do you have any evidence?
Do you have evidence to prove that Chen Luo has these abilities?
Conceptualization is a really good thing.
Previously, Chen Luo's S-level talent, "Breaking the Cocoon and Becoming a Butterfly," was stored within Chen Luo's soul, and Chen Luo then experienced a faint feeling of being filled.
It wasn't until then that Chen Luo understood why the Spiritual Aura Sect's assessment of gifted individuals was that dual-talented individuals had an extremely difficult time breaking through their talent barrier.
My soul is almost completely filled, how can I break through my talent?
I can't let go! I simply can't let go!
"But why do the other two seem so afraid of you?" Rick asked, somewhat skeptical.
Seeing is believing, and at least in Rick's view, Chen Luo held the upper hand in the interactions between Yakumo Yukari, Xiao Jiu, and the other two.
"Oh, you mean that? Combat strength is relative. In the past two months, I've grown tremendously. In terms of destructive power alone, I might not be a match for many people, but if you include my items, I can be said to be omnipotent. As you can see, I'm actually an item-based player," Chen Luo continued to introduce himself.
Chen Luo wasn't lying; he just didn't tell the whole truth.
There are indeed many people that Chen Luo can't beat right now, such as the various demons in A Certain Magical Index... but they can't kill Chen Luo either.
"Humans are inherently weak, and it is precisely because of this weakness that we need to be adept at using various tools to survive, isn't that right?"
“Indeed.” Rick couldn’t help but nod.
Upon hearing Chen Luo's words, Rick couldn't help but think of the current state of his own planet.
Of the sixteen races on their own planet, humanity is the most vulnerable.
They are even far inferior to the orc race, which ranks third from the bottom.
But humans can still survive in the cracks.
Marine species? What's that?
"I'm sure of you, my foot! What do you mean by being good at using all sorts of props? If you're so capable, lend me your props, I'll use them even better than you! It's not that I don't want to use them, it's that I don't have any." Although she knew Chen Luo was chatting with the new guest to build rapport, Yakumo Yukari couldn't help but speak up in the end.
This makes it sound like Yukari Yakumo isn't good at using tools, but the problem is, Yukari Yakumo doesn't have any.
"And the new guy, don't listen to Chen Luolan. Even without using any tools, he's no weaker than me. And ever since he borrowed You's magic, he's made up for his last weakness."
“But you also said it was borrowed, so it doesn’t belong to me,” Chen Luo said, turning his head.
"As long as it works, why do you care whose magic it is? Anyway, you're willing to use it, and You're willing to lend it to me."
"Alright, that's about it for my self-introductions, and I've finished my truth-or-dare questions."
"Ah, that doesn't seem right. I forgot to do my final self-introduction. My name is Chen Luo. I am a traveler who enjoys receiving wishes of all kinds. I am a deity."
It wasn't until the truth or dare game reminded Chen Luo that he hadn't finished the truth game that Chen Luo realized he hadn't introduced himself to the other person yet.
"A divine species?" Rick's pupils contracted slightly.
"Although the nature may be different, you can understand it this way. The gods in your world are a race that manifests in the world according to wishes. They are born from the concept of planets and are born by obtaining 'divine essence' through wishes and prayers... Coincidentally, I am also a conceptual god."
"Although it may sound arrogant to say this, if it were a contest of divine status, I would not lose to any god."
"Tsk." Xiao Jiu clicked her tongue in displeasure.
Although reluctant to admit it, for the sake of the Heavenly Rules, Xiao Jiu is still willing to call Chen Luo "something special."
Chapter 1308 Rick: 20 more games!
“Since you claim to be omnipotent, and that you enjoy fulfilling all kinds of wishes, and this bar can appear anytime, anywhere… could you please help treat my companion if he gets seriously injured in the future?” Rick said.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
"Good grief, are you treating me like a campfire?" Chen Luo complained.
I am the Fire Keeper. What brings you here?
"Didn't you say you'd grant any wish?"
“I just said I’m enthusiastic about taking on all kinds of wishes, not that I take on every wish. But I can definitely do what you’re asking for. Although I’m not always at the bar, the good thing is that you can’t get injured or die there. If your companions are seriously injured and on the verge of death, they can stay in the bar and wait for me to come back and treat them. But don’t you think you should take care of your own body first?” Chen Luo pointed to Rick’s somewhat battered body and said.
"My body is not important. I just want to ask if you want to accept this wish? You can name your price, although we are not rich."
“What a coincidence, I’m not interested in wealth either. If you really want me to accept this wish, let’s continue playing chess. If I win, I’ll agree to a dare,” Chen Luo said.
Although Chen Luo would indeed grant this wish, there should still be a procedure to follow, right?
"However, as a promise, I will choose dare next time, and if you lose next time, you will also have to choose dare. I have something I want you to do."
"You really don't hide your intentions at all."
"Why are you trying to hide it? Or do you think you two will lose to me in a chess game?"
"Then let's give it a try!"
Rick subconsciously glanced at the box placed next to him.
That document contains events written by Chen Luo, Rick, and Hugh before the game began.
"Can I throw a few more notes in?" Rick asked.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
"It won't work according to the original rules, but since you're not very familiar with the bar or me at the beginning... please go ahead."
[Ding! Mission complete]
Chen Luo wasn't stingy with helping Rick and Shubi, but frankly, with intelligent people like them, being too eager to help them might make them feel strange or even wary.
It's okay, they won't need to go through all this trouble once they get used to bars.
In the third game, Chen Luo unsurprisingly lost to Rick and Hugh through their combined efforts.
"If it's the same wish you two had, just say it. But if it's not, I'll draw lots," Chen Luo said after choosing dare.
“It’s that wish I just made. I hope that if any members of my Ghost Organization come to the bar seriously injured, and you see them, you can provide them with treatment,” Rick said.
"Heh, what a clever little devil. Alright, I accept your wish. Hold out your hand." Chen Luo chuckled and said to Ji Li.
"I'm sorry, your chess skills are really high, so in order to avoid losing the next game, I've decided to turn my two wishes into one," Rick said somewhat embarrassedly, then extended his only remaining good hand.
Rick's other hand was already charred, and they were about to amputate it.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a side treatment anyway." Chen Luo waved his hand.
Although accepting the same type of request from the same person twice at the same time will not work, this request was issued by Rick, and Chen Luo did not think that Rick's companions would have no will to survive after they arrived at the bar.
This is a long-term commission, so Chen Luo won't refuse.
Besides, those who play word games will eventually be played by word games themselves, and Chen Luo was already prepared for that.
"Combining the treatment of this new guest and the treatment of this new guest's companion into one request... it seems this new guest is one who enjoys playing word games." Yukari Yakumo, who was watching from the sidelines, showed no surprise whatsoever at the current situation.
Yukari Yakumo is a master of wordplay, so as for reminding Chen Luo? Needless to say.
Chen Luo was no less adept at wordplay than Yakumo Yukari, after all, they had both read the same book written by Patchouli. Same master, same tricks.
Although Yakumo Yukari is not easy to fool and is even more skilled, Chen Luo has a human touch that she can't resist.
One yearns for healing from Chen Luo, the other yearns for the raw gem from him...
If Chen Luo and Rick had been more sincere, all this trouble wouldn't have happened.
But for intelligent people, it is really hard to adapt to sincerity, and it is even harder to get sincerity from others.
Chen Luo's ability to transform from a cocoon into a butterfly cannot heal all injuries, but treating Rick's current injuries is quite simple.
Rick suffered only external injuries.
Of all the injuries, Chen Luo's favorite to treat is external injuries!
Rick's injuries were caused by a special item called a Spirit Remains.
Rick's world has 16 races, and the third race is an elf race. You can think of them as a manifestation of magic, because in that world, the use of magic requires elves to activate it. However, humans are the only race that cannot use elves' magic. The only one!
The corpses of dead elves are called spirit remains, also known as "black ash." Black ash is very harmful to the human body.
However, the advantage of this thing is that if you cover your whole body with black ash, other people who can use magic (elves) will not be able to see your true nature.
In order to deceive those higher races by posing as a human, Rick had no choice but to choose this method. Otherwise, if it were discovered that he was the weakest and most insignificant human race, and that the mere human race could threaten the higher races, then the human race would most likely face a great purge.
As the white light swept across Rick's body, his scorched skin began to heal, and as the black fragments shattered, new skin was revealed.
After the bandages were removed, Rick discovered that even his left eye had recovered, and his vision had fully returned...
"Speaking of which, do you want to stack some spirit resistance?" Chen Luo asked after spending a few minutes healing Rick's injuries.
"What do you mean?"
"If you frequently ask me to treat your injuries caused by the black ash, you may be able to stack up your resistance to spirit remains to the maximum, which means that spirit remains may not be able to harm you or may have a very weak effect in the future."
"No. This isn't good for me. So, can you cancel this resistance?"
Rick doesn't mind getting injured, as long as the injury is worthwhile.
Now Chen Luo is injured again, just by the campfire and the spring. Remember to heal him when you get injured again.
"Sure, but that would be a real waste."
"Let's continue playing chess," Rick said to Chen Luo after rearranging the pieces.
Chen Luo won the fourth round.
Rick and Shubi exchanged a glance and had no choice but to accept their defeat.
Although I don't know how I lost, I lost, and that's that.
"According to the agreement, you should choose a dare now. Will you choose the dare during the event or will I announce it directly?" Chen Luo asked.
“Tell me first, what are you trying to achieve by posting this directly?” Rick asked.
"Well... could I touch this beautiful machine-type girl next to you... Oh, don't get me wrong, I have no ulterior motives towards your wife. It's just that I'm planning to create a body for a super-intelligent AI, a mechanical body. The structure of the machine-type is really suitable for reference."
"If I'm not mistaken, your wife should be gradually understanding what human emotions are, right? Although this can't be used directly, it can be used as a case study... Your arrival is really too timely."
“No way,” Rick refused outright.
Rick didn't know what Chen Luo was planning to do, but Rick wasn't going to gamble because it concerned Hughie.
"Don't refuse so quickly. I'll just touch it and analyze its body."
