Their commission was suspicious.

The weakest of the three worlds is the zombie world, so the zombie world became the simulated universe one.

"Wow, Ready Player One is amazing! But could you explain why you're all bruised and battered?" Yukari Yakumo tentatively raised her hand and asked the question everyone wanted to know.

"It's just a little hardship. How can there be no stepping stones on the road to success? One general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand!" Haruhi Suzumiya appeared very domineering at this moment.

"...We want to hear the truth."

"The truth is, I overcame all obstacles and defeated the entire Nanshan Nursing Home and the Beihai Kindergarten, utterly annihilating those zombies and Gastrea. Believe it or not," Haruhi Suzumiya said expressionlessly.

"Snap!" Yukari Yakumo snapped her fingers.

Hearing the noise, Chen Luo immediately poked his head out through the gap.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Truth]: 200 Originium

"My dear and respected number one player, I'm sorry, she gave far too much." Chen Luo glanced at Haruhi Suzumiya with a slight apology, then talked with Yukari Yakumo about Haruhi Suzumiya's experiences with great interest.

"Oh, no..."

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Shut up]: 300 raw gems.

"...Sorry, this time it's Haruhi Suzumiya who gave more. I'm going fishing. Goodbye." After weighing the options, Chen Luo chose the commission that offered more raw stones.

Then, after retracting his head, he continued fishing.

Chen Luo is fishing for fish from the Arknights world this time; he wants to fish out his own little world within a pot.

Although Chen Luo hasn't thrown his current world into the pot yet, since the world within the pot exists within the river of time, going against the flow of time isn't impossible.

In other words, we can fish for the future world within the pot right now.

Since the crystal ball containing the world within the pot has already been used once, it cannot be used a second time because the miniature world inside has taken the shape of Terra and cannot be reforged.

So it's fine if this world in the lake is left in the river of time, as long as Little A and Hai Si can get out.

However, Chen Luo later discovered that the already used Lake World also had value.

Chen Luo wanted the Lake World to be truly useful, because as a miniature world, the Lake World could actually help the World Tree quickly grow its first fruit.

Then Chen Luo can bring forward the grafting plan as soon as possible!

Let's just consider it as making use of waste. Even if we're going to make use of waste, we still need to cultivate Little A first. But as long as Chen Luo can get the World in the Pot and then take it to another world to jump through time, he can quickly accelerate its growth.

It didn't work before. In the past, because the world within the lake was within the river of time, it was not affected by the flow of time. So even if Chen Luo frequently jumped through time, it would not affect the time within the world within the lake.

"This Chen Luo is really..." Yakumo Yukari looked at the money-grubbing Chen Luo with a headache.

“But… Haruhi, you should still tell everyone a little about your experiences, at least tell some of the truth. After all, it’s normal for Ready Player One to encounter setbacks.” Chen Luo was fishing at the other end of the bar, but his voice reached Haruhi Suzumiya’s ears.

As long as Chen Luo urges Haruhi Suzumiya to tell the truth, and as long as there is even a part of the truth, Chen Luo's mission will be completed.

If Haruhi Suzumiya can't manage nine truths and one lie, then five truths and five lies should be fine, right?

Although 300 raw stones are indeed more tempting than 200 raw stones, Chen Luo wants them all!

"The truth will eventually come out."

Under the influence of this statement, Haruhi Suzumiya sighed and began to ramble on about the problems she had encountered in both the first and second simulated universes.

Our esteemed top player, Haruhi Suzumiya, although she obtained the first game test qualification and explored different worlds, never expected that neither the zombies nor the Gastrea would follow the patterns she had imagined.

Moreover, as a newborn, I had no tools except a small knife, and my first teleportation sent me directly into a horde of zombies, where I was bitten to death.

Chen Luo was quite satisfied with the somewhat dejected Haruhi Suzumiya. Due to Haruhi Suzumiya's inherent characteristics, no matter which world she went to, the world's consciousness would always give her some face. Therefore, Haruhi Suzumiya had basically never suffered any substantial physical setbacks.

However, the virtual body created using this player qualification is different. This virtual body is made of data, copying the data of Haruhi Suzumiya's real body. But because Haruhi Suzumiya's world consciousness is unique, it cannot be copied. This means that Haruhi Suzumiya will not receive any preferential treatment in other worlds because of her identity, and then... she gets beaten up badly.

Since Chen Luo accepted money from the World Consciousness, he should care about the World Consciousness's concerns and discuss how to teach Haruhi Suzumiya to be toughened up.

This is also why Chen Luo gave the title of Top Player and the first test qualification to Haruhi Suzumiya.

Good news: Haruhi Suzumiya succeeded and learned a lesson from setbacks.

The bad news: Because it's a game, this kind of resilience training isn't profound enough for Haruhi Suzumiya.

Good news: Because it's not profound enough, it won't cause too much psychological damage to the Japanese audience, especially regarding Haruhi Suzumiya.

Chen Luo isn't Haruhi Suzumiya's mother, so she can't control so many things. It's already more than enough that she can let Haruhi Suzumiya suffer some setbacks and change her personality a bit, but at the same time, she can prevent Haruhi Suzumiya from being physically harmed.

[Ding! Mission complete]

[Ding! Mission complete]

"I understand the logic. You just impulsively went to fight monsters because you hadn't gathered enough information, so it's normal that you got beaten up by society. But why are you bruised and battered? Weren't you playing a game? Is there some kind of security risk in Chen Luo's game?" Yukari Yakumo asked curiously.

Chen Luo's props were always quite reliable and unknown in the past, so why did something go wrong this time? Was it a problem with the person or the props?

"I feel I have to say something about this." Chen Luo suddenly reappeared through his spatial ability.

"Wow, that startled me!" Yukari Yakumo was taken aback.

"Now you understand how we were startled by you before, right?" Remilia said with a hint of resentment.

"Here's the thing, my game is absolutely guaranteed to be mature. There are no problems whatsoever in terms of either security or growth potential," Chen Luo said.

"That Haruhi Suzumiya, she..."

"Isn't it because he insisted on using that live-action experience mode? This simulated universe actually has two modes: a data mode and a live-action experience mode."

"Data mode refers to completely digitizing people. During combat, the fighting will be conducted in a way that is very similar to that of a game, based on your skills and the opponent's attributes. For example, in the digitized state, as long as the health bar is not empty, you can still be lively and energetic as long as you have one drop of health. Moreover, in this state, there will be no negative feelings such as fatigue or pain."

"The downside is that although the damage to the edges and corners is less than that to the vital parts, if the weapon is powerful enough, a shot to the foot can still be fatal. Also, the combat skills acquired in this way may not be fully applicable in reality, because in reality, you will feel pain."

"The real-person experience mode is to fight in a completely human way without any intervention. The side effect is that there may be a little bit of pain and damage feedback, but this damage feedback can be adjusted to the lowest level. However, Haruhi Suzumiya turned it to the highest level!" At this point, Chen Luo couldn't help but glare at Haruhi Suzumiya.

Go ahead and do it!

If you don't court death, you won't die. Why don't you understand?

"But...but don't all the masters in online game novels set the realism to the highest level, then use that to comprehend some strange magic, and finally go on a killing spree?" Haruhi Suzumiya whispered.

"You know that only masters in novels can kill indiscriminately, right? Are you a master?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Suzumiya Haruhi.

"You noob, just stick to the data-driven mode. Or use the real-person experience mode, but turn the damage and sensory feedback to the lowest possible level!" Chen Luo mocked.

"I refuse! I, the Great Emperor Liang Gong, have never been inferior to anyone in my life!"

"...Who knows how to play games? Could you watch over my silly cousin in the game? Just make sure she doesn't die. It's okay if she does." Chen Luo sighed, then turned to look at the crowd in the bar.

"Speaking of which, does this simulated universe have any other merits?" Yukari Yakumo asked.

"If I had to point out its strengths... after you improve in the game, the game will give you some feedback to help you become stronger. You can also summon game characters in reality. And you can also make game characters use a data-driven mode in reality," Chen Luo said.

Actually, summoning character cards with the Seven Saints is also an option, allowing you to increase the strength of the card characters by continuously developing their cores, but the process is very slow and has a low ceiling.

However, the intensity of this simulated universe is 100% replicated. As long as you work hard to become stronger in the game, you will also become stronger in reality and will obtain a powerful alt account.

"Furthermore, this game still allows you to replace sleep with gaming. Also, due to the data-driven nature of the game, characters who become stronger will not suffer a power reduction in the other world due to cultural differences."

When she got to the last point, Yukari Yakumo's eyes lit up.

"This isn't a simulated universe at all, is it?" Black Tower complained from the side.

Chapter 1618 Chen Luo: Xiao Shi, why are you sleeping face down? (Touches his chest)

"..."

"..."

"Xiao Shi, I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"

"I don't want to hear any good or bad news. I just want to know what your mentality was in leaving me in the dungeon for a whole day?"

Those who understand the law are very angry, and the consequences will be severe.

"How about... we go to sleep first?" Chen Luo, kneeling on the bed, pointed to the blankets.

"I don't think it will work." The Herald of Knowledge rejected Chen Luo's excellent plan, then stared intently at Chen Luo.

The Herrscher of Knowledge initially wreaked havoc in the dungeon, killing with great enthusiasm and collecting a considerable amount of loot.

At the time, Shizhilüzhe thought that Chen Luo hadn't come to find him because Chen Luo had forgotten him. Later, it was Suigintou who persuaded him, and Shizhilüzhe waited a while longer.

But later, because it was bedtime, Suigintou said goodbye to the Herrscher of Knowledge and went home to sleep in the Doll World. In Suigintou's words: "My father said good children should go to bed early and get up early..."

Then, only the Herrscher of Knowledge remained in the dungeon.

Feeling utterly bored, the Herrscher of Knowledge finally couldn't resist running back to the bar, only to find Chen Luo there, with a woman on his left and a woman on his right...

"Hey, wait a minute, I do admit that I accidentally forgot about you, but how can it be described as having a woman in one hand and a woman in the other when two Mebius pinned me down on the spot?" Chen Luo said somewhat aggrievedly.

"Anyway, you've forgotten about me."

"This is because I used time jumps in the previous civilization. Because I jumped so many times, I accidentally forgot about it."

"You've forgotten me."

"But I remembered it the moment I saw you come to the bar."

"You've forgotten me!" the Herrscher of Knowledge said, somewhat agitated.

"Okay, I'm sorry."

But Chen Luo was actually quite wronged, because the Herrscher of Knowledge hadn't been with him for the past few days, so Chen Luo subconsciously assumed that the Herrscher of Knowledge had gone to the Land of Bliss.

"Fine, I'll forgive you this time. After all, I haven't spent enough time with you these past few days." Seeing Chen Luo's sincere apology, the Herrscher of Knowledge softened her tone.

Chen Luo was quite surprised to hear what the Lawgiver said.

Has Xiao Shi matured?

No, she's finally realized it; she wants to be Suigintou's mother.

"???"

[Just kidding. Do you believe that the Herrscher of Knowledge can awaken enlightenment, or do you believe that I can turn into a beautiful girl?]

"You can really turn into a beautiful girl?!"

"...Isn't Prometheus enough for you? I mean, neither of them is reliable."

……

"How is it? How is it?" the Herald of Knowledge urged.

"Not very good."

"But I killed a lot of monsters."

“But my Herrscher of Knowledge is just too strong. Everyone says that you can level up by crushing weaker monsters, but leveling up by crushing weaker monsters is slow. Because you are too strong, when you go to the dungeon to crush those monsters, you don’t get much experience at all. Those monsters can’t even withstand a punch from you.” Chen Luo sat on the waist of the Herrscher of Knowledge, looking at the divine runes on the back of the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Moreover, leveling up from LV1 to the maximum level is a problem, but leveling up from LV1 to LV2 is an even bigger problem. Your strength is just too great, so for you, the entire dungeon does not have enough resources to support your leveling up."

"What should we do then?" The Herald of Knowledge turned over and looked at Chen Luo, who was sitting on his waist.

"Clothes..." Chen Luo had already turned his head away.

"Hmm?" The Herrscher of Knowledge looked down and saw the somewhat disheveled clothes on her upper body that couldn't quite conceal her cleavage.

Chen Luo usually updates other people's stats by creating an opening in their back using a gap. But for the Herrscher of Knowledge, it's much simpler; he can just remove her clothes.

After pushing Chen Luo off him, the Lawbringer quickly put on his clothes and then asked Chen Luo for a solution.

Chen Luo then took out a pair of glasses.

This is the game loading device for simulating the universe.

This is the solution Chen Luo provided.

For a fully evolved Herrscher of Knowledge, finding a monumental achievement that allows them to advance is extremely difficult. Teaming up to challenge stronger opponents is the most common way to advance in the dungeon. However, there are few in the dungeon stronger than a Herrscher of Knowledge.

Since that's the case, let's just create a new account.

The Lawbringer of Knowledge was quite interested in this little gadget, while Chen Luo was also quite interested in the Lawbringer of Knowledge's immobile body after putting on the glasses.

Actually, these glasses do have alarm and protective functions. The Herrscher of Knowledge saw Chen Luo hugging her in the game through her alert ability, but after thinking for a moment, she chose to ignore Chen Luo.

……

"Xiao Shi, why are you playing games while lying down?" Chen Luo mumbled in his sleep, his arm draped over the chest of the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"!!!" The Herrscher of Knowledge, who was playing the game, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Chen Luo, who was still not behaving himself while hugging him, and gritted his teeth.
