Their commission was suspicious.

Whom should I call "Mom"? The ancient giant whale? The dimensional sea? Or should I call my mom here?

[Oh no, I mean, I should call you Teacher Puppet Master!]

Chapter 2012 Chen Luo: If I ever see a whale with horns on its head again, I'll beat it up every time!

In the end, the ancient giant whale left. Although the inevitable waves generated when it left caused a lot of impact on the large safe point where Chen Luo was located, fortunately, it did not have a major effect.

Inside the large safe zone, everything was fine, and the scavengers from the Dimensional Sea who were gathered outside the safe zone but couldn't afford to enter also suffered few casualties...

This is already considered a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

"I hope I don't see any horned whales next time, or I'll beat them up every time I see one!" Chen Luo said resentfully.

If I can't beat the ancient giant whale, can't I beat other horned whales?

"Where in the world are there so many horned whales? You'd be lucky to find one. By the way, Lolo, who's stronger, you or that ancient giant whale?" Xiao Shi smiled, not caring.

"It's about 50/50."

"Wow, Luo Luo, you're this strong now?"

"I can't beat him, but he can't catch me either, so it's a draw."

"...Hahaha." Xiao Shi laughed without any attempt to hide it.

Xiao Shi's laughter didn't attract much attention in this large safe zone that had just narrowly escaped disaster, because there were many people who were even more excited than Xiao Shi.

Some people even knelt down and kissed the floor.

He's survived again... How can this not be something to celebrate?

Moreover, barring unforeseen circumstances, the safety of this large safe zone will increase significantly in the next six months to a year, because shells are unlikely to land in the same crater, and the ancient giant whale is unlikely to return again.

After the ancient giant whale, a beast that hunts giant beasts, passed through an area and left behind some traces of its presence, no other giant beasts sensed it for at least six months.

The ultimate defensive target of the safe point is the behemoth.

This large safe haven has ironically turned out to be a blessing in disguise; in the coming period, many forces will likely come here seeking to expand their influence.

The only one who felt particularly hurt was Chen Luo, who had just finished talking about the Cricket Dimensional Sea and was then slapped in the face by the Ancient Giant Whale.

But Chen Luo still refused to admit that the ancient giant whale came because of him.

Even if the humanized plugin says that Chen Luo's ability to condense primordial stones, a special ability that the Dimensional Sea considers equivalent to the Origin of the World, is at least enough to catch the eye of the Dimensional Sea and thus receive some attention, Chen Luo still doesn't admit that the giant whale came for him.

What a joke... Chen Luo doesn't admit it. The humanized plugin can only laugh for a minute at most before it stops laughing. If Chen Luo were to admit it, the humanized plugin could laugh for a year.

...You can't even secretly laugh to yourself!

On his way to the teleportation array, Chen Luo kept his eyes fixed on the sky.

This kind of behavior is not uncommon in this large safe zone, because the ancient behemoth had just flown over this area.

There were even countless people taking pictures of the sky.

But people like Chen Luo, who walk with their heads up, are rare.

Xiao Shi saw Chen Luo's movements and tried to look up as well, while holding Chen Luo's hand tightly, afraid of getting lost.

"..." Chen Luo glanced at Xiao Shi out of the corner of his eye, but didn't say anything about not looking up while walking.

However, Chen Luo was looking up at the sky expecting the consciousness of the Dimensional Sea to suddenly bubble up or something, so why was Xiao Shi looking up at the sky?

Just ahead of Chen Luo and the others, on the side of the street where the flow of people had increased due to the distance from the teleportation array, an elderly man with a somewhat thin figure and a rather old appearance saw a couple walking with their heads up and looking upwards. His eyes lit up, and he then winked at his companion beside him.

"Hey..." Just as Chen Luo and the other person were about to reach him, the other person tripped and fell down directly in their path.

The fact that the ancient giant whale still headed towards the teleportation array shortly after its appearance indicates that it was eager to leave.

Therefore, they certainly don't want to get entangled here any longer, so they can set a trap.

Moreover, the other party was the one who looked up without looking where they were going first...

But before the other party could utter the second "Ouch," Chen Luo stepped on the shadow that stretched towards Chen Luo because the other party was facing away from the artificial sun.

In an instant, the shadow that Chen Luo had stepped on came to life and swallowed the other party into its shadow.

Xiao Shi paused, then lowered his head, which he had been holding up, and looked around but didn't see anything strange.

Besides Chen Luo and his own shadow.

"Could I have misheard?" Xiao Shi twisted her slightly sore neck and gave up looking up at the sky. Instead, she led Chen Luo to a nearby stall selling medicine.

After the two left, only a thick, impenetrable shadow remained on the flat floor.

In the shadows, some creature seemed to be howling in fear... and only one spot in that shadow was filled with light, displaying a number—ten days.

The old man's accomplices, witnessing this, were startled, realizing they had met their match.

But he couldn't just leave his accomplices alone, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and run to the road, pry off the floorboard with a knife, and carry it home.

"Hey, you! You're the one who vandalized public property in the street? And on this main road leading to the teleportation array, no less! Come with me."

"what?"

"What do you mean, 'huh'? Either you spend 10 days in jail, or you pay 10 gold coins. You choose."

"..." The accomplice looked down and saw the only words left that weren't covered by the shadow, "10 days," and then his body inexplicably shivered.

"I choose to go to jail!"

Even though a 10-gold-coin fine wasn't unacceptable, his intuition told him... he'd better go to jail.

……

"Is this the teleportation array? It's exactly the same as I imagined." Xiao Shi couldn't help but exclaim when he saw the large, safe teleportation array.

Because this is an open-air teleportation array.

It was the kind of ordinary teleportation array that everyone would think of, but mysterious patterns were carved on an open-air platform, forming a formation, and there were heavy guards guarding the formation.

"I originally thought the teleportation array in the Dimensional Sea could be more novel and creative."

"However, the truth is that although the Dimensional Sea really wants to innovate, it can't. Innovation comes at a cost. Some people have tried to build a subway or high-speed rail, but because they might be attacked by giant beasts along the way, it's safer to use this most traditional teleportation array... even though it consumes a lot of resources," Chen Luo said.

"Let's go buy tickets. This might be the only innovative thing about this teleportation array, which has inherited so many traditions." Chen Luo led Xiao Shi towards the ticket booth.

"Aren't we going to develop the amusement park store in this large, safe location?" Xiao Shi asked, somewhat puzzled.

“I would like to… but the problem is that this large safe zone has just been attacked by the aftershocks of the ancient whale’s wandering. The manager of this large safe zone probably has a lot of things to do and doesn’t have the mind to listen to my rosy picture of the amusement park store… but it wouldn’t be good to just leave like this.”

"Snap!" While everyone was queuing up, Chen Luo snapped his fingers, and an adventurer from the amusement park was summoned by him.

"You can open a Paradise Shop here, similar to the Treasure Basin Camp, offering weapon enhancement services and a revenue-sharing service for Paradise Gold Coins, which are soul crystals. The funds needed to open the shop and for advertising can be freely withdrawn from the group network, and a courier service can also be launched."

"But you absolutely must remember to hang the puppeteer's mark on the sign of your shop. This is crucial. After hanging this mark, if anyone comes looking for trouble, give them a warning the first time, and you can take action the second time. If you can't beat them, call for help; if you really can't win, call me. But remember to obey the law," Chen Luo instructed.

Large safe points are not comparable to medium safe points.

Considering the significant profits that Chen Luo's puppeteer lineage and the amusement park shop's business model will bring, medium-sized safe points can grant Chen Luo one free broadcast across all safe points.

However, the management of large security sites is more stringent.

The central safe zone is more like a nouveau riche territory, because it doesn't have a teleportation array, so the administrator has the final say.

After the large safe points were equipped with teleportation arrays, a series of strict management systems were established based on the principle that nothing can be accomplished without rules.

"Understood, sir. But how many Paradise Leveling Agents should we recruit for this large safe zone?" the Paradise Adventurer asked.

"Paradise Boosting" refers to a member who signs a contract with an adventurer from the Dimensional Sea and then turns the adventurer's weapon into a puppet to kill monsters.

"Leveling services for large safe zones... 100,000 spots, please. First come, first served," Chen Luo said after checking the group network's material reserves.

Because the Ninth Herrscher sank the entire Mu Continent, and therefore needed to convert billions of her followers, the doll imprints used for dollification within the group network had run out.

There are probably still materials for a million more dolls.

Fortunately, the Puppet World now has a way to produce Puppet Gold Coins on its own – by piling up Paradise Gold Coins dropped by monsters on the Silver Earth, and taking advantage of the characteristic that "the progress of all Puppetization in the Puppet World will continue to deepen", the trace of Puppetization characteristic in the Paradise Gold Coins can be expanded to the entire Paradise Gold Coin, gradually transforming it into Puppet Gold Coin.

Because of this characteristic, all Paradise Coins of Paradise Adventurers are stored in the community network, rather than in the Doll World.

Actually, doing it this way is still a bit of a loss, because Paradise Coins are also very expensive... But if we don't use this method, the Doll Coins and Doll Marks can only be produced by Chen Luo. Even if we drain Chen Luo dry, he can't produce that many Doll Coins and Doll Marks in a day.

Chen Luo still has to work; he can't possibly sit in the puppet world every day drawing puppet marks, can he?

So what if the cost is a little higher? I'm sure I'll break even anyway.

"If the cost of making doll coins is so high, why don't you just transfer all the doll coins to the Dimensional Sea instead of distributing them to all the worlds you've visited? Generally speaking, shouldn't the adventurers in the Dimensional Sea be stronger than the people in other worlds?" Xiao Shi asked curiously.

"Because... the rewards for killing monsters are fixed. Whether you're in the Dimensional Sea or within the world, killing a monster of equal strength will only give you this much experience. It won't increase just because the monster killer is stronger. The only difference is actually the rewards for delivering packages," Chen Luo explained.

They're all power levelers; none of them are more valuable than the other.

Chapter 2013 Chen Luo's Little Sunflower Classroom Teacher Qualification Certificate

The adventurer from Paradise, entrusted with an important mission by Chen Luo, left after Chen Luo handed him a large map of safe spots.

The strategy guide provided by Chen Luo is based on a user-friendly plugin and summarizes all the major and minor loopholes within the entire safe zone in a simple and easy-to-use way.

According to this guide, you really can find rare and precious treasures at street stalls.

Then, using these rare treasures as start-up capital, and aiming to use as few Paradise Coins as possible, open the Paradise Shop within this safe zone.

It's not that Chen Luo is stingy, but rather that there's genuinely no money left in Chen Luo's social network.

The billions of Paradise Adventurers from Mu Continent haven't even passed their newbie protection period yet. In order to help them grow quickly, Chen Luo has poured all of his Paradise Gold Coin savings into them... including Chen Luo's own personal savings.

So this time, the landlord's family really had no surplus grain.

However, Chen Luo was not worried, because the Paradise Coins generated by Paradise Adventurers leveling up in the dungeons of Orari, Aincrad, and the newly developed Gold and Silver Aincrad were gradually replenishing the group network's inventory.

In addition, the 1000 power levelers recruited by the Treasure Basin Camp are constantly slaying monsters, and their enthusiasm is not much less than that of the adventurers in the Paradise.

With the addition of these billions of adventurers in the amusement park... as long as suitable monster-spawning spots are found, the wealth of the group network will reach a new peak in less than 10 days.

I'm sorry, Nanook.

Chen Luo really couldn't find a more suitable force for monster farming than Nanuk's antimatter legion.

Moreover, beating up the antimatter legion could provide Chen Luo with strong psychological comfort and satisfy his sense of justice.

I've never seen a villain as purely antimatter as the Antimatter Legion.

Even the Fools are not as villainous as the Antimatter Legion.

"Where would you two like to go?" After Chen Luo and his group finally reached the front of the line, the staff member in charge of approving the teleportation array tickets asked.

As the staff member asked the questions, they tossed a very high-tech projection screen in front of the two of them.

They had already seen this projection feature in the guidebook they had picked up before they even reached the front of the line.

In fact, even the teleportation arrays in large safe zones can only reach a limited number of destinations, because there is a limit to the number of areas that a cross-regional teleportation array can connect to.

Generally speaking, to achieve fast travel across regions, one must be transported from a large safe point to a super large safe point as a transit station and then continue the transfer.

Each super-large safety point is a traffic hub.

Chen Luo and Xiao Shi naturally and instantly chose the only super-large safe point among the 10 safe points that the large safe point teleportation array could reach.

It must connect to at least one super-large safe point to be considered a qualified large safe point teleportation array.

Actually, this large safe point connects to two super-large safe points, but the teleportation path of one of the super-large safe points has been drastically increased in danger due to interference from the Ancient Giant Whale, so the route has been temporarily closed.

Xiao Shi eagerly clicked on the icon of the super-large safety point, and then the current ticket price popped up...

"Two people for 2 gold coins? Why don't you just rob someone?" Xiao Shi exclaimed in surprise.

The gold coins here are those currently issued by large safe points, and if converted to Paradise Gold Coins, they would be equivalent to 2000 Paradise Gold Coins.

The ticket to enter this large safe zone only costs one amusement park coin.

Xiao Shi knew that using teleportation arrays was expensive, but he didn't expect it to be this expensive.

The staff member gave Xiao Shi a strange look, but didn't dare to say anything.

The staff had just witnessed Chen Luo suddenly summoning someone.

The security personnel maintaining order also saw it.

Faced with this illegal act that practically screamed "smuggling people across borders," both staff and law enforcement officers remained remarkably silent, because anyone capable of smuggling people into a large, secure area was certainly not someone an ordinary person could mess with.

You're risking your life for only 300 yuan a month?

Even if the other party is surprised by the price of the teleportation array, it's best not to say anything.
