Their commission was suspicious.

"What are you saying, miracle doctor? How could anyone doubt your medical skills?"

"See? My medical skills are really good. If you don't mind, would you like me to take a look at your uncle's condition? Generally speaking, as long as he has a breath left, he will soon be lively again in my hands." Chen Luo asked after bidding farewell to the Yunqi soldier.

"Seriously, is it really possible?"

"of course can."

"Thank you so much! I'll pay for the medical expenses later!"

"No need for medical expenses. If you're interested, you can tell me your story as payment for medical expenses."

"Well... okay." Gui Naifen nodded excitedly.

Since there was a random passing Yunqi soldier vouching for him, it shows that Chen Luo's reputation in the Yunqi army is indeed very high, and Chen Luo is not after money.

Gui Naifen no longer felt that Chen Luo had any ill intentions.

However, for safety reasons, Gui Naifen sent a message to her best friend to inquire about Chen Luo.

Gui Naifen hadn't originally planned to get too much information from her best friend, but she didn't expect her friend to actually know Chen Luo. Her friend even confidently guaranteed that Chen Luo was indeed a miracle doctor.

The whole Yun Cavalry is talking about it!

"Here's what happened... My home planet was a rich planet called... never mind, the massive invasion of the antimatter legion nearly destroyed our planet, and my twelve brothers and sisters and I were forced to flee to a barren mineral planet called Humboldt-0. I spent my childhood there."

"That planet was quite barren and desolate, except for its rich mineral resources. It was practically useless and dangerous everywhere. My father and mother died in that great war. The one who supported the 13 of us siblings was an old knight who was my father's closest playmate. I called him Uncle Stonewall."

"The dozen or so hungry children made the already strained economic situation even worse. Moreover, the barren and desolate mineral planet and the dangerous profession of mining made Uncle Shi Qiang old and haggard, his lungs full of wounds that were difficult to heal. His hands, which used to wield the power hammer with great force, were now so twisted that he could hardly hold a spoon."

"Doesn't the Interstellar Peace Corporation care?" Xiao Shi interjected.

“The Interstellar Peace Corporation is only interested in the mineral resources this planet contains. They don’t care about the miners who will be mining it, because someone will definitely do it. So there are almost no preventative measures. Or rather, preventative measures are very expensive.” Gui Naifen shook her head.

"And then? Your uncle sounds like he's seriously ill. And why did he come to the Immortal Ship?" Xiao Shi asked.

“Because a big shot from the Interstellar Peace Corporation has taken a liking to that planet. But what he values ​​is not the mineral resources, but the harsh ecology on it.” Gui Naifen’s eyes suddenly lit up.

"Huh? There are people like that?"

"Yes, after visiting Humboldt, that great man took a liking to the planet's harsh ecology. On that barren planet, primitive algae, fungi, and lichens barely provided enough atmospheric conditions to sustain animals, and almost all the native species that thrived in that illusory environment posed a threat to humans. So that great man bought the planet."

Why would he buy this planet?

"He said it was supposed to be used as a playground."

"Amusement park?"

"Hmm, it's some kind of virtual reality game. The game type seems to be wasteland survival and building. According to that person, the ubiquitous monsters are actually a way to attract players. After all, according to that person, players are strange creatures who like to go to places where it's impossible for people to survive. They'll quickly lose interest in games that are too easy," Gui Naifen said.

"That virtual game combines monster killing, mining, and body modification. Players connect to humanoid robots through virtual helmets, kill monsters to increase their level and add mechanical modification modules, and mine to earn gold coins to buy mechanical modification modules, improve their combat power, and kill more monsters."

"And that's not all. Half of the profits from players buying game helmets and virtual game items will be used by that person to improve the planet's environment, plant vegetation, and put nameplates on the plants in the names of the players who spent money on the game."

"We locals will be hired by wealthy players to mine minerals to level up. Unlike the Interstellar Peace Corporation, those players will provide us with a full set of purification equipment. And we can't do any inhumane treatment, or we'll be banned."

"Under that great man's miraculous transformation, the entire planet was completely renewed. Our lives are getting better and better, at least we no longer have to go hungry. The older brother, who originally even planned to become a space pirate to make a living to support us younger siblings, also chose to join the game department and became an official NPC in the local area, working together to transform the planet."

"Why does this modification method sound familiar..." Xiao Shi frowned.

"As for what happened later... I also wanted to join the game department and become an NPC, but I was rejected by the Interstellar Peace Company because they couldn't hire child laborers. Moreover, our family of 14 was entirely supported by two people, and one of them was in critical condition. It seems that the game department found out about this. In addition, my brother joined the game department and worked as an official NPC, so he was considered a member of the game department. This matter even alarmed that big shot, and then that big shot gave us poverty relief quotas in the name of humanitarian concern."

"At that time, it was interstellar time, and pirates were rampant. The Immortal Ship came to the vicinity to suppress the bandits, so the game department sent us aboard the Immortal Ship to receive a better education, treat Uncle Stonewall's illness, and reimburse all medical expenses and my younger siblings' tuition fees until they came of age. That's how it happened. I'm done. What do you think? Isn't this story quite dramatic?" Gui Naifen asked.

"Ah, I remember now, isn't this the idea that won second place in the group online game design competition?" Xiao Shi slapped Chen Luo on the shoulder.

"Hmm? A game design competition?" Gui Naifen paused.

“Yes, you might not believe it, but the big shot you're talking about should be Void Treasury, right? I know him very well. He knows Void Treasury even better.” Xiao Shi pointed at Chen Luo.

"They're a faction, and they once held a game design competition. The second-place idea was quite similar to what you just mentioned about planetary terraforming... except for a few minor differences. I remember that the second-place idea was to use cloning technology to replicate a real physical body, rather than a mechanical body, as a medium for the player to descend," Xiao Shi said.

"...If I remember correctly, the game department did do that at first, but after only half a month of closed beta testing, a player was scammed by a same-sex man in an online romance, so all the players were changed to mechanical beings." As Gui Naifen said this, her eyes grew increasingly astonished as she looked at Chen Luo and Xiao Shi.

This matter should only be known to the miners living on those planets.

Because it's in closed beta, you can't find any related information online.

Gui Naifen still vividly remembers what Void Repository said when he transformed the Jiang clones into fully mechanical beings: "Wasteland survival and building games aren't for you to fall in love! All you normal people can go to hell!"

"But the problem is... the Planet Travel Game Arena renovation project started two years ago. And according to people in the game department, this project has been in the works for over 10 years. But it was temporarily shelved because they couldn't find a planet to live on, with a harsh environment, lots of monsters, and abundant mineral resources. You... aren't from the Immortal Ship, are you? How could you survive that long?"

"You don't believe me? Chen Luo, summon the Void Treasury to liven things up!"

[Ding! You have a new request!]

“The Void Treasury has important things to do. I don’t think it matters whether it’s proven or not, but if you insist, there are other ways.”

"Snap!" Chen Luo snapped his fingers.

It's not that Chen Luo can't summon the Void Treasury; in fact, it only takes a few seconds. But what era are we living in? Do we still need to teleport people over to gain their trust?

Is holographic projection just for show?

Don't you know how to make video calls?

"Wow!" Gui Naifen was startled when she saw the holographic projection that suddenly appeared next to her.

"Mr. Void Treasury?" Gui Naifen stammered.

"You are..." Seeing Gui Naifen's seemingly excited expression, Xu Kong Wanzang did not remember Gui Naifen.

After all, Void Treasury had never even met Gui Naifen.

“I am Guinevere, but you probably haven’t heard of me.” Gui Naifen quickly calmed down.

Gui Naifen didn't think the holographic projection was fake, since no one would dare to fake the image of Void Treasury.

Unless he wants to die.

"Oh, Guinevere, the Humboldt girl who wanted to join the game club but was rejected because she was under 18?" Void Repository remembered.

"Mr. Void Treasury, do you still remember him?"

“My memory is excellent. After all, I am just a weapon. Remembering my subordinates’ birthdays, or even the names of their relatives, is very easy for me,” Void Treasury smiled.

In this respect, Void Archives learned from Otto Apocalypse, because Otto Apocalypse was also able to care about the work situation and even the family situation of every Destiny employee.

And this is naturally the best way to win people's hearts.

In fact, from the perspective of destiny, Otto is the eternal bishop, because they have no idea what Otto has been doing in secret.

"See? I already told you we know Void Treasury, and I even contributed to this idea." Xiao Shi proudly raised his head.

"Wow, Xiao Shi is amazing! So it's all thanks to you that we have this kind of life now. You're a true hero! By the way, Xiao Shi, what was your job again?" With Mr. Void Treasury as her witness, Gui Naifen readily believed the story and praised Xiao Shi's great achievements.

"Xiao Shi was responsible for changing this proposal from first prize to second prize, and then pushed his own proposal to first prize," Chen Luo suddenly said from the side.

"Huh?" Gui Naifen was taken aback.

"Then, Xiaoshi's game plan must be even more amazing, right?" Gui Naifen asked, seemingly trying to liven up the atmosphere.

"Yes, even more impressive. It's not that it's completely unrelated to that game where a beautiful girl battles a Honkai Beast, it's practically identical. They don't even try to hide the plagiarism."

"Plagiarism? Then why is Xiaoshi ranked first? Xiaoshi must have some extraordinary abilities, right?" Gui Naifen was greatly shocked.

"That's true, after all, Xiao Shi has an exceptional relationship with the organizers." Chen Luo nodded in agreement.

[Xiao Shi won first place in the public vote for adventurers in the Group Network Paradise with her article "My Puppet Master Dad"]

"???"

It took Gui Naifen a while to recover from the shock that her friend was one of the great heroes who saved her family.

"This is truly a twist of fate! As the saying goes, 'Those destined to meet will find each other even from a thousand miles away.' Our meeting must be destiny. Why don't we become sworn brothers?" Gui Naifen said enthusiastically, holding Xiao Shi's hand.

Gui Naifen knew that Chen Luo was definitely the greater contributor. After all, judging from the respectful attitude of Xu Kong Wanzang towards Chen Luo, it was clear that Chen Luo's identity was not simple. Gui Naifen was also very grateful to Chen Luo, but she couldn't very well cling to Chen Luo's arm.

"No, who wants to die on the same day, month, and year as you? Unless you use the third method to materialize your soul." Xiao Shi shook his head.

LOL, Katsura no Fumi is just an ordinary person with a normal lifespan of only a hundred years, while Koji, as the Herald of Knowledge, will not die as long as he doesn't die.

It seems that Gui Naifen had previously proposed to his best friend Su Chang the idea of ​​becoming sworn sisters, but Su Chang was not very willing.

After all, Su Chang looks young, and she is actually very young. As long as she doesn't fall into the clutches of demons, she can live for another thousand years.

What is the materialization of the soul in the Third Law?

“It’s something that’s useless to a strong person, or even makes their strength stagnant, but for an ordinary person, it can grant them immortality,” Xiao Shi said.

"Shh." Little did Xiao Shi know that his words would make Gui Naifen nervous.

"Don't talk about seeking immortality on the Immortal Ship. The people of the Immortal Ship are very taboo about this," Gui Naifen explained in a low voice.

Because the people of the Immortal Ship know just how painful the poison of immortality is, they are quite resistant to the idea of ​​outsiders seeking immortality and medicine.

You can come to the Immortal Ship as a guest, do business, or even stay permanently, as long as you meet the regulations, there is no problem, but you cannot seek immortality.

If they were to actually do that, they'd probably be thrown out by the Immortal Ship people.

That being said, although the Immortal Ships generally hated the God of Abundance, most of them would not be willing to completely strip themselves of the power of abundance, just like the vast majority of those who initially received the blessing of the God of Abundance.

Completely stripping away the power of abundance means giving up longevity, reducing the average lifespan from nearly a thousand years to less than a hundred.

Who can stand this?

This is equivalent to reducing the average person's lifespan from 100 years to around 10 years.

Because the average lifespan of ordinary people is less than 100 years, the final age result may be even lower.

In more terms of cultivation, the two star gods, Abundance and Hunting, are vying for lineage, and Chen Luo naturally doesn't want to interfere.

At least they were unwilling to directly help the Hunting Star God to assassinate the Abundant Star God.

"Fine, so you've been spreading rumors all day that my soul materialization will hinder future development, right?" Chen Luo's hand landed directly on Xiao Shi's ear as Gui Naifen nervously watched.

"It hurts..."

You're the one who cut off my source of income?

“But for me, it’s an obstacle to development,” Xiao Shi said stubbornly.

"What did you say?"

"I'm sorry, I was wrong." Xiao Shi clasped her hands together.

"If you dare to spread these rumors with newcomers again, I'll throw you into Fu Hua's dorm and have Fu Hua teach you to memorize the Dimensional Sea Travel Guide!"

"How vicious!"

"Ok?"

"I meant it," Xiao Shi pleaded.

Chen Luo released his grip on Xiao Shi's ear in an annoyed manner.

Actually, Xiao Shi wasn't entirely wrong. For Xiao Shi, soul materialization was indeed a power with obvious side effects. As a demon, Xiao Shi was formless and without will. Giving Xiao Shi soul materialization didn't improve his strength much; instead, it destroyed Xiao Shi's greatest advantage as a Herrscher of Consciousness and a demon.

Sometimes, having more skills isn't necessarily better.

While materializing the soul is not particularly useful for a powerful individual like Yukari Yakumo, it certainly has no side effects.

However, Yukari Yakumo doesn't need to. As a youkai with the ability to control realms, Yukari Yakumo's strength is no less than that of a materialized soul.

In the Age of Gods in the Type-Moon universe, soul materialization is not considered magic at all, because only dragons and advanced fantasy species can achieve it.

Therefore, rather than saying that the materialization of the soul is a cheat code, it's more accurate to say that it's a characteristic that a strong person will inevitably possess once they reach a certain level of strength.

For those who are much weaker than Yukari Yakumo, the effect of materializing the soul is quite good, because it can provide a constant, almost infinite magic power buff.

For dolls in particular, soul materialization is especially convenient. After achieving soul materialization, they gain an incredibly formidable talent in the soul realm, allowing them to accommodate even higher-level abilities. At the same time, they don't need to worry about soul materialization restricting their progress; they simply need to continuously fill their souls with soul crystals, or Paradise Coins, and the capacity will grow larger and larger.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about your strength stagnating due to the use of soul materialization.

"That's true, but the materialization of ordinary souls is really worrying, especially since you don't even give others silver or gold soul materialization," Xiao Shi muttered.

"Was it that I didn't want to give it? It was because giving it was too much trouble. The dolls didn't need it, and the people in the bar were quite confident in themselves, believing they could reach even greater heights, so they didn't want their souls to be materialized."

Even if Chen Luo replicated his own gold and silver blood, he could not strengthen the materialization of his soul, because blood is just a medium. However, this does not mean that it cannot be strengthened. As long as Chen Luo uses his peeling ability to glass out the materialized soul, it will be fine, which is equivalent to adding an extra step.

However, Chen Luo was planning to have the Paradise Dolls attack in their three forms—Gold and Silver—in the future, so he didn't do that for them. Otherwise, the Gold and Silver Paradise Dolls wouldn't have the soul materialization bonus.

Chen Luo didn't mind helping the people at the bar, but nobody wanted their souls to be materialized.

This is a truly sad fact.
