Their commission was suspicious.

Before entering the game, Kong and Bai had prepared a series of strategies, including the most detailed opening strategy based on the information revealed by Chen Luo. But for now, they would put it aside.

We should go wherever Chen Luo is; that's the right thing to do.

The other dolls thought the same thing, but after being glared at by Chen Luo, they obediently followed their original ideas and joined the familiars they had chosen.

Don't be fooled by Chen Luo occasionally hugging other people's legs and shouting "I'm your fan!" In the world of dolls, the number of people who want to hug Chen Luo's legs and ask for his autograph could circle the earth three and a half times.

The same applies even without the influence of dollification.

If there were no influence from the puppetization, does that mean Chen Luo didn't save them?

Even though Chen Luo had warned these dolls not to join the Astrea Familia for their own reasons, there were still quite a few people who came to the Astrea Familia booth to learn about the Astrea Familia.

Because this clan is really famous. At least it's famous among the Paradise Warriors.

10 people is actually a huge number. Even if it is divided equally among all the families, each family would still have several hundred people.

The player plaza now houses over 200 deities.

Don't think that a few hundred people isn't a lot. If you really make one person stand in a line of hundreds of people, it would be incredibly annoying.

If the server opens at 9:30 and closes by 12:00, then there are already enough gods.

Without so many deities diverting their influence, the problem couldn't have been solved so quickly.

Of course, it wouldn't have been this fast without the help of the Catherine doll who could share data analysis.

Liu, who had been prepared to be busy for a while, suddenly found herself with free time after Catherine took over her work. She then looked at Chen Luo, who was talking to the two players who had arrived at the player square first.

"Are these two...acquaintances?"

“Oh, Liuli, you’ve come at the right time. Please meet the younger generation. These are members of the River God’s Clan.” Chen Luo said, pointing to the blank space.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't recruit heroes from other worlds as members of your familia?" Freya walked over unnoticed.

The Astrea Familia and Freya Familia stalls are not far apart.

“They’re different. Those two are special. Well, there are less than 100 others who are just as special as them. They were all members who had already joined the River God’s Clan beforehand,” Chen Luo said, shaking his head.

Sora and Shiro were branded with divine grace by Chen Luo yesterday, because for most people in the bar, exploring the world is more important than growing their strength in playing games in another world.

But for Blank and the other two, the most important meaning is to become stronger.

Sora and Shiro are really too weak. Chen Luo is worried about what will happen if they catch a cold and become seriously ill.

In fact, everyone in the bar will become a member of the River God's Familia once they enter the game.

"You have a good eye for talent. These two are at least the most promising among this batch of otherworldly warriors," Freya said, her eyes sparkling.

Although these two people seemed a little shy and might not seem like suitable adventurers to others, Freya saw them as having a brilliance no less than Bell's.

However, Bell is a different type of player from these two, so they cannot be compared.

"Of course, how could my judgment be bad? But you've misunderstood. I didn't choose him as a member of the clan on purpose, but because they needed me more."

"For various reasons, don't even think about getting them to change their religion. Even if they did, only I can update their ability values," Chen Luo said.

"..." Freya shook her head with a hint of regret.

Why did Chen Luo get his hands on such excellent seeds? If it were any other god, Freya would have had the courage to take them too.

But Freya couldn't even look Chen Luo in the eye.

Furthermore, the warriors from another world are not quite the same as the adventurers of Orario. Although they can indeed be used as adventurers, they are not from this world.

According to the information provided by Chen Luo, these warriors from another world are indeed living, breathing people. They are not being controlled by some remote network, but have actually traveled from one world to another. However, due to Chen Luo's special abilities, they are able to travel back in time, and even the gods cannot stop them.

This made Freya feel very insecure.

“I have a question,” Freya suddenly said.

"What's the problem?" Chen Luo asked.

Since Sora and Shiro were members of the River God's Familia, they couldn't choose their own Familia. In addition, Ryu was the Familia Vice Leader that Chen Luo had chosen, so Sora and Shiro went to stay behind the stall.

"Why is it that their souls are so dazzling, yet there's a kind of..." Freya hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.

After being deeply moved by the souls of Sora and Shiro, Freya still felt a sense of unreality when she examined their souls more closely.

There is no doubt about the beauty of their souls, but there is a sense of detachment between the two of them.

"Because they are different from ordinary warriors; they are true players. Their true forms are not here, but rather... bodies condensed using divine power. Their souls can leave this body at any time," Chen Luo explained.

To be honest, Chen Luo was quite surprised that Freya could see so much even with her divine power sealed.

"..." This answer made Freya feel even more insecure.

Freya's greatest desire was to have these people with unique souls stay by her side, inseparable from her. But those otherworldly warriors who came in their true forms were one thing; these players weren't even physically present and could leave at any time.

It's painful; the more I look at it, the more painful it becomes.

Seeing Freya's changing expressions and the real-time synchronized thoughts displayed by the human-like plugin above her head, Chen Luo chuckled with a hint of schadenfreude.

Of course, Chen Luo had no ill intentions towards Freya herself; he was just someone who enjoyed himself and didn't care about anything else.

Knowing that this was probably someone she could never have, Freya carefully admired the blank soul for a while before walking sadly toward her own clan's stall.

"Lolo! Didn't you say the server would open at 10 o'clock?!" Freya heard a voice that sounded very unique and pleasant amidst the noise after she turned around and took a few steps.

Freya subconsciously turned her head to look, and then froze on the spot.

What kind of soul is this?

Can such a special soul really exist in this world?! Her soul is pure and flawless, like a child of the stars and the moon!

Freya stood in the crowd, looking at the pink-haired girl, her mind going completely blank.

Freya had never seen such a special girl.

Freya's gaze followed the girl to Chen Luo's side, and she watched as the girl locked Chen Luo's throat in her hands. It was only because Chen Luo's soul light was too dazzling that Freya couldn't help but close her eyes.

"Alicia, I'm a river goddess, can't you give me some face in front of everyone? And do you really mean it when I say the server will open at 10 o'clock? The official team can lie too."

"I don't care, you have to give me a UID that satisfies me, otherwise..." Alicia didn't say anything harsh, but the threat was obvious.

"How about UID1000000520?" Chen Luo asked.

"Hmm... I guess so. But what's with that girl over there? Why is she keeping her eyes closed? But she seems to be looking at you? Do you know her?" Alicia asked curiously.

"Oh, wait a minute." Chen Luo patted Alicia's hand, and Alicia released her forearm from Chen Luo's throat.

Under Alicia's watchful gaze, Chen Luo approached Freya's side.

Alicia quickly stopped paying attention to this place and was instead drawn to the beautiful girl Ryu next to her.

The phrase "to be fickle when meeting someone of the same ilk" perfectly describes Alicia.

"So, what are your thoughts after meeting Alicia?"

"Alicia? Is that the name of that pink-haired girl? She's beautiful, just like her." Freya still didn't open her eyes.

Freya needs some time to recover after Chen Luo's eye was a little irritated.

"As for my thoughts... do I not dare to touch upon them?" Freya admitted that she had never felt so conflicted.

It seems like I should, but... such a soul is too pure.

Chapter 1625 Astrea: You actually lust after my body?

“Alice, that’s her name. The name she chose for herself.” Chen Luo looked at Alice, who was harassing Ryu.

"She's beautiful, lovely, and wonderful. Her soul isn't as dazzling as yours, but it's pure and flawless. That's what makes her even more captivating."

Freya had no doubt about the potential of the girl named Alicia.

If she had been born into this world, she might have been the only goddess of love.

That's right, not the goddess of beauty, but the goddess of love.

"I can……"

"No." Freya was interrupted by Chen Luo after only three words.

"Alicia is taken."

"Who?" Freya frowned instinctively.

"That world."

"..."

Upon hearing this answer, Freya returned to her stall without saying a word, opened her eyes, and stared blankly at the passing warriors from the other world.

I thought you were going to say it was you.

"Sigh, your talent is really funny. You dream even more sweetly than I do."

【…】

……

"Wow, I really saw that person before, in the Moth of Flame! I never thought I'd actually run into someone I know in the park! Lolo, you're amazing!" Alicia couldn't help but pat Chen Luo on the head, looking quite excited.

Chen Luo turned his head to look at Alicia, who was standing behind him with a somewhat excited expression.

"What's wrong?" Alicia tilted her head.

"...Next time you take a picture of me, be gentle. Also, stay away from me. You slime are practically shoving your face in there," Chen Luo said with disgust.

"Hehe, are you shy?" Seeing Chen Luo glancing to the side and avoiding her gaze, Alicia leaned down and got even closer to him.

"Ha, a mere two ounces of meat..." Chen Luo's voice was filled with disdain.

"Looks like she's shy."

"I'm still a child, women stay away from me."

"Little brother..."

“I don’t know if I’m young or not, but I know you’re in big trouble soon,” Chen Luo said.

"Oh? What's so terrible about it? I, Alicia..."

"Oh, what's wrong with you, Alicia? Oh, by the way, could you stay away from Chen Luo a bit?" Mebius's voice rang out behind Alicia.

"Oh, it's Mebius. Long time no see, I've missed you so much!" Alicia rushed over and hugged the giant snake with a look of "surprise" when she saw that the visitor was the snake.

"Ugh, annoying woman." Mebius tried twice, but failed to push Alicia away, so he ignored her.

Whether it's Alicia Mebius or Kevin and the others who came to the simulated universe 3 using game helmets for reasons unknown, their bodies are currently quite weak, no different from ordinary people.

Therefore, it is quite possible that Mebius cannot break free from Alicia's embrace.

But Chen Luo is more inclined to believe that Mebius never really wanted to break free.

As for what Mebius said?

Do you believe Mebius who tells the truth every day, or do you believe Chen Luo is like Qin Shi Huang who made you a great general?

“Now I can truly feel that the people of the previous civilization have really been preserved.” Velvi said, standing diagonally behind Chen Luo and watching the members lining up to join the Astrea Familia.

"You've been doing this for a long time, and you're only realizing it now?"

"Don't say that. I've never been out before, and I've never actually seen anything like it." Wilvi shook her head.

"...Are you guys going on an adventure in the dungeon?" Chen Luo asked the group of people standing behind him, who were full of enthusiasm.

Many of these people came to visit the other world, but many others, like Blank, came to play games.

Sora and Shiro are really strange. They were in a completely safe bar, where they didn't even dare to make a sound for a while, and it was Chen Luo who dragged the two corpses back to their home. But after they found out that this was a game world, they were able to chat and laugh as usual...

While not exactly eloquent, they are at least able to communicate normally.

Even the most hardcore gamer needs to build up NPC affinity when playing open-world games. You can distrust Sora and Shiro anywhere else, except in games.

"..."

It does make sense

That's why Chen Luo gave Kong and Bai specially made game helmets that automatically filter out any statements about the game actually being a real-world game.

Otherwise, Chen Luo dared to say that Kong and Bai wouldn't last more than 10 minutes in this world.

If they survive for even 10 minutes and 01 second, it means they've hidden in a sufficiently dark place.

However, once they realized this was a game world, the two of them were full of enthusiasm and determined to become the number one player in the entire server!
