Their commission was suspicious.

Actually... besides the Herrscher of Knowledge chasing Skadi to try and take Chen Luo back, there is another person who is hunting down Chen Luo all over Rhodes Island.

Can you guess who this person is?

Originally, being stuffed into a sack and brought to Rhodes Island, and even being tricked into a medical examination because of it, wasn't something that Xi would be too angry about. However, for Xi, who wasn't physically strong, the more she couldn't catch up with Chen Luoxi, the angrier she became, and the angrier she became, the more she wanted to chase after him, and the angrier she became...

Human potential is limitless. There was once a person who drove three thousand miles and shot his opponent in the head because he was getting angrier and angrier the more he thought about it!

Just like the sunset now.

"Flaw!" Chen Luo gripped the sword blade with one hand. While Xi was surprised to be caught bare-handed, he pulled out a water gun that Xi was very familiar with and aimed it at Xi's clothes.

"Wait, what do you want to do?" Xi shielded herself with one hand.

"Hesitation leads to defeat. Decisiveness leads to surrender." Chen Luo pulled the trigger expressionlessly.

"boom!"

As Xi stared intently at the water gun muzzle, a bouquet of flowers suddenly emerged from it.

"Xi-chan, I'm your fan! I'm sorry, I was wrong!" While Xi was still in a daze, Chen Luo grabbed Xi's leg.

"Chen Luo, you're here again!"

"I'm warning you you'd better forgive me quickly, or I'll lick your boots," Chen Luo said, looking up.

"Get out of here!!!"

Xi didn't really want to know what Chen Luo wanted to lick.

Chapter 1725 Year: I treated you like a brother, and you actually wanted to rape me?

"So, you're the one who made my sister this angry? Now she won't even open the door when I knock." Nian was standing in front of a wall in a secluded corridor of Rhodes Island.

After a series of farcical events, Nian and Xi successfully stayed on Rhodes Island as visitors.

Nian lived properly in the dormitory, while Xi drew her own dormitory.

If nothing unexpected happens, Xi's dormitory should be quite large.

Chen Luo always felt that Xi seemed to have forgotten a little monk who had accidentally wandered into her original painting.

Forget it, I'll bring Xi out again tomorrow.

Let's see if we can get to Rhodes Island.

She's a six-star operator, after all.

Although there is no necessary correlation between an operator's star rating and strength.

"Is it possible that your sister doesn't want you to enter her dorm room, whether she's angry or not?" Chen Luo gave Nian a disdainful look.

"How could that be? Xi and I are a loving family." Nian didn't believe it.

"..."

“…Okay, there might be a slight misunderstanding, but it’s not good for Xi to stay at home all the time,” Nian explained.

Sigh, my younger sister is all grown up now, and she's harder to manage.

"Actually, although Xi chased me with a sword for more than an hour, we eventually made up." Chen Luo began to defend himself after seeing Nian admit to it.

As we all know, it is something that idols should do to forgive their fans. Regardless of whether they have truly forgiven them in their hearts, they should at least forgive them on the surface.

Besides, Chen Luo's attitude in admitting his mistake was positive and good.

Although some unexpected things happened during the process, the result was good.

Chen Luo promised to find Xi a paintbrush that was absolutely unique in the world.

Although the paintbrush is not yet fully finished, Xi is still very satisfied with the brush handle made from raw stone.

However, Chen Luo still felt a pang of heartache over those ten Primal Stones...

A single rough stone cannot be used to make a brush handle that can be freely controlled in size.

but……

【The brush, submit to me】: Create a brush that is unique in the world.

Reward: 500 Primogems + 20 points of affection with Yu

Difficulty: 3 stars

This request sounds difficult, but Chen Luo can actually complete it right now.

You can simply pluck some white hairs from the head of the Nian tree next to you, stuff them into a calligraphy brush, and you'll have achieved the desired effect.

Putting aside whether this calligraphy brush is good or not, just tell me if it's one of a kind?

At least Chen Luo had never seen anyone else use raw stones.

Furthermore, no one has ever tried using a year's worth of hair as material for making calligraphy brushes.

However, Chen Luo's calligraphy brush was not simply for fulfilling a wish, but also for apologizing.

When entrusting someone with a task, you should learn to do it gradually and steadily.

If Xi is satisfied, or even encouraged to visit the bar, she can acquire even more raw gems.

Staying at home isn't scary; what's scary is a woman who stays at home forever, for 8 or 10 years...

In 8 or 10 years, Chen Luo will even be able to directly ascend to the Void Tree.

The daylily buds are all cold now!

In this respect, Chen Luo is just as concerned about Xi as Nian is.

These days, the people who genuinely care about your health are either your family or people who want to make money off you.

"They can reconcile like this?" Nian asked, somewhat surprised.

"Don't underestimate me," Chen Luo said confidently.

"I can find reasons why Xi doesn't come to bars, but why don't you come to bars?" Chen Luo asked curiously.

“I am indeed very interested in bars, but if I just leave like this, I suspect Xi will abandon her home without hesitation and settle down somewhere else, which will be troublesome to find her then,” Nian said.

Nian knew her timid, homebody younger sister quite well.

"So you should be able to come tonight, right? I'll give you a wedding gift. What kind would you like?" Chen Luo asked, taking out 10 raw stones.

"Are these all for me?" Nian couldn't help but become interested as he looked at the special casting material in Chen Luo's hand, a material that even he himself couldn't figure out.

As someone who is an expert in casting to the core, and whose body temperature exceeds 1000 degrees Celsius, Nian has a special fondness for raw stone as a unique material.

On one hand, there's the raw stone's sturdiness; even heated to thousands of degrees, it shows no deformation or melting. On the other hand, Chen Luo can easily shape it, like kneading clay.

"Dream on! Just tell me what kind of item you want, and I'll reject it until you choose something different from everyone else. Then I'll use raw stones as the material to create it," Chen Luo said.

"Then I want a shield?!" Nian said instantly.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"Okay." Chen Luo nodded.

Seeing that Chen Luo agreed, Nian was also somewhat pleased.

Originally, Nian thought Chen Luo wouldn't agree to her request.

Looking at the years, such an exceptionally sturdy tool is best suited for making two kinds of things: a sharp spear and a sturdy shield.

However, the latter is more commonly used.

But Nian's smile gradually froze on her face.

"Chen Luo, you've got it wrong, haven't you?"

"Are you kidding me? Can you really say this isn't a shield?" Chen Luo handed a shield ornament to Nian, then calmly took back the remaining nine raw stones.

That's right, Chen Luo took out ten Primal Stones, but only one Primal Stone was used to forge the shield.

This was even more outrageous than Nian had imagined. Nian thought that Chen Luo would at least use all the raw stones in his possession to forge shields.

Maybe we can even extract some more raw stones?

Is that all?

"Please note, this is a beginner's gift to you, a gift, not a wish-fulfilling one. So isn't it reasonable for the greedy to be punished?" The nine raw stones floated and circled slowly in Chen Luo's palm.

This was truly a newbie gift that Chen Luo gave to all the bar patrons.

As for those commissions? Chen Luoke didn't force them; those were voluntary on the part of the guests.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I was wrong. Why don't you use all 10 gems? At least make a bigger shield. The shield you gave me can only protect half of my forehead at most."

"This still protects half of your forehead, it's alright. Even if you get killed on the battlefield, I can revive you for free," Chen Luo said, patting Nian's shoulder.

"No way! Use all nine raw stones together, and then stretch them out as much as possible, at least make me a breastplate!" Nian said, hugging Chen Luo from behind.

But Chen Luo didn't sense any ambiguous atmosphere between himself and Nian at all, because Chen Luo had no doubt that if he disagreed, Nian, who was hugging him from behind, would most likely behead him.

“No, your breasts are too big,” Chen Luo rejected.

"...I treated you like a brother, and you actually tried to sleep with me!"

"Don't talk nonsense."

"Then give me a breastplate."

"Impossible. That would require at least 11 raw stones, which is too many."

“I… never mind, just turn this shield into dice for me. But I want six! And two of them must be made of raw stone but are opaque,” ​​Nian said.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"I think you're making things difficult for me, Fat Tiger. Why don't you just ask for a multicolored black?" Chen Luo said disdainfully.

Moreover, since there are six dice, six raw stones are definitely needed, and Chen Luo wouldn't split the raw stones in half for such a reason.

And those two cups for rolling dice... each one costs at least two Originium!

Rounding down, are you planning to use all ten of these raw stones?!

"I beg you."

“…Alright then.” Chen Luo relented.

"That's great." Nian nodded in satisfaction.

This way, next year you can try to see if you can change the properties of the raw stone when no one is around.

Since a shield or something like that is impossible, then I can only settle for a recreational item. That way, if I can't get the Primogems later, I can still use them for fun.

"One thousand amusement park coins, installment payment or full payment?" Just as Nian breathed a sigh of relief, Chen Luo's words made Nian's heart jump again.

"1000 what? Paradise coins? What are those?" Nian was stunned for a moment.

Nian was one of the very few extreme primitives among the bar's patrons who didn't even have internet access.

Forget about game equipment that simulates the universe, there isn't even a mobile phone that can connect to a large network.

"A versatile item that can be used to restore mental energy. It's okay if you don't have it..."

"You're not taking any money?"

“I’ll go collect the money from your sister. I just checked, and she’s worked hard for several days and has already saved up 1142 gold coins. After deducting the 1000 you need, there will be 142 left. That should be enough to buy a drink.”

"Hey, no, no, no, we can talk this over. Don't just tell the parents all the time," Nian said unhappily.

Moreover, your sister worked hard for several days to save up more than 1000 gold coins, how could she dare to spend them all at the end of the year?

With Nian's audacity, he would do anything, except steal his own older sister's wine.

You dare steal one and try? Believe me, I'll make your butt hurt for three days straight so you won't dare let your tail fall down.

"Okay. But you have to agree to one condition."

"What conditions?"

"Help me build two absolutely invincible, fucking awesome blue kettles!"

“…Huh?” Nian tilted his head.

Do you want to hear what you're asking for?

I am a master foundry, and you actually want me to make a kettle for you?
