Their commission was suspicious.

"explain."

"I demand that this person be like the White Demon, only able to participate in the competition, not fight!" Pest stared at Chen Luo with eyes that seemed to want to devour him alive.

Although the elemental counteraction is mutual, just like water counters fire, fire can also counter water.

If Chen Luo was able to devour the Black Death Spot Demon King, then the Black Death Spot Demon King should also be able to devour Chen Luo.

However, due to her size, Pest never even considered it.

Therefore, Pest's attitude towards Chen Luo is very strange now.

Pest wanted to make Chen Luo her pawn, because the more afraid she was, the stronger the opponent was.

But Pest was genuinely afraid.

So Pest decided to take a gamble, betting that after banning Chen Luo from participating in the war, she could seize control of Chen Luo's ownership in one fell swoop!

Then make him kiss his toes every day as punishment for offending him!

"Wait, you're not planning to make me and White Demon squat in that black whirlpool together, are you? No way! I just spent ages mocking White Demon. If I get locked up too, he'll laugh at me for half a year." Chen Luo shook his head.

"No way!"

"You'd better not raise your voice at me, or I'll change my mind."

"!!!" Pest's heart skipped a beat.

"For example, instead of swallowing a person's achievements and soul in one gulp, it becomes swallowing one in two gulps. Let them taste the pain of their souls being torn apart, and die in despair and struggle without peace." Chen Luo licked his lips.

"Don't doubt whether I can do it or not."

Are you threatening me?

"Yes, I am threatening you, but you can choose not to be threatened."

"Aren't you also a leader of the community? Don't many people in your community also participate in the North District Fire Dragon Birth Festival? Aren't you afraid they'll die?" Pest, the Demon King, tried to persuade Chen Luo with emotion.

"So what if I die? What does it have to do with me? I hate being threatened the most. Believe me or not, I'll go from two people to three people." Chen Luo raised an eyebrow.

Pest was defeated.

Thinking about it carefully, someone who possesses such dark abilities is definitely not a good person. They might even be a demon king, and it seems quite normal for them not to value their comrades in their community.

I'm numb. My first time as a demon king, I've encountered the demon king among demon kings.

“You absolutely cannot participate in the war!” Pest conceded another step.

"That depends on your definition of 'participating in the war.' Does it mean I can't directly beat you up, or that I can't do anything at all?"

“Nothing can be done! To be precise, nothing can be done that might hinder our victory,” Pest said.

"Then I'd just be a mere decoration? You might as well wait a month before starting the war. You can gamble on whether I have any conscience and whether I'll watch my community members die."

“…At most, you can only act as a think tank in this competition, devising ways to crack the game.” Pest conceded another step.

"This is my bottom line."

"Only fit into the think tank?"

"Yes."

"Can't they even be medical staff?"

“That’s right. I doubt your abilities. Perhaps you can weaken my virus and curse, for example, by fighting poison with poison.”

The curse corresponding to the Wind of Death and the pathogens implanted in the contestants beforehand were one of Pest's biggest trump cards in securing her victory this time.

If Chen Luo manages to break through this, no matter how much time drags on, the situation will not turn in our favor.

……

After a long and agonizing struggle, the restart date for this game of grace was finally set for five days later. The price was that Chen Luo, like the White Demon, could only participate but not fight, and could not even do medical work. Furthermore, he could not directly use his power to cause any harm to the organizers.

Although Pest suspected that Chen Luo had some way of indirectly influencing her, this was truly the limit of what they could discuss.

Because Chen Luo would threaten to eat Pest in two bites at a time, his threats were nothing new, but they were incredibly effective.

In a sense, the contestants' lives were in Pest's hands, and Pest's life was in Chen Luo's hands.

In addition to the above-mentioned treaties, there is another additional clause: if a participant loses the competition, Chen Luo and Izayoi's group will have to join the Demon King's confederation. Especially when Chen Luo is mentioned, the other party's expression becomes excessively strange.

If the organizer and the Demon King lose the match, the Demon King will belong to Chen Luo and become his food.

The reason why the Demon King is not attributed to Nameless, White Yaksha, or even Sandra is because Chen Luo promised to minimize the personnel losses in this Gift Game after achieving victory.

Don't ask, the answer is that there are special methods to win someone back.

"Now that the negotiations are over, Chen Luo, do you really have a way to cure the Black Death curse?"

"I was just about to ask, but for some reason, I had a feeling that you, Chen Luo, were inclined to agree to their conditions, start the competition sooner, and end the Gift Game," Izayoi Sakamaki asked.

After the negotiations ended and the Demon King and his entourage left, only a few members remained in the luxurious VIP room.

The North District Dominators may not know Chen Luo, or even have been invited into the bar by him, but Jin, Izayoi Sakamaki, and the others never felt that Chen Luo was powerless to resist, or even that he could be put on the defensive.

“Of course there are ways to cure the Black Death, and many of them. The reason I agreed to their conditions and kicked myself out of the game is because the stage is now for you young people.” Chen Luo patted Izayoi Sakamaki on the shoulder.

"Are you an adult?" Izayoi Sakamaki asked.

"almost."

"..."

"But don't worry, even if I don't personally help you defeat this sweet and delicious demon king, I have ways to make your victory even easier," Chen Luo said.

"Could it be Alger?" Sandra asked immediately.

With White Yaksha currently trapped by the black sphere created by the Black Death Wind, the only way Sandra can think of to break the deadlock is Alger.

Sandra still didn't have any direct impression of Chen Luo's combat strength, because Chen Luo always seemed to be quite approachable.

But Arger is different; Arger has a fearsome reputation.

"No." Chen Luo shook his head.

"why?"

"Because the White Demon won't allow it."

"Ok?"

"Have you forgotten? When I said I would use the Demon King to fight the Demon King, White Yaksha told me to stop using my supernatural powers," Chen Luo reminded him.

"But this is a special case."

“Special circumstances cannot be handled specially. I actually have a very special set of self-discipline rules. It’s not that I have to follow these rules, but when I fulfill other people’s wishes, I will receive a reward. This reward is very rare, so if nothing unexpected happens, I will do my best to fulfill it,” Chen Luo explained.

"But……"

"Don't worry, I don't necessarily have to fulfill this wish. You can treat Arger as your last trump card. If you still can't defeat the opponent after doing your best, Arger will make his move."

The agreement reached with Demon King Pest was that Chen Luo should not directly attack them, but Alger is not Chen Luo, so having Alger attack would only be considered indirect.

Besides, who gave Pest the misconception that Chen Luo needed to abide by the rules of the Detailed Garden?

"That's good..." Pandora breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, Sandra agreed to hand over the Demon King's ownership to Chen Luo after achieving victory in the battle against the Demon King, not only because Chen Luo promised to minimize the losses, but also because Chen Luo held the trump card of Alger.

While Pest, the demon lord with a five-figure stat, is indeed powerful, how would you respond if we brought out the three-figure Alger?

With Alger as a guarantee, Sandra and the others can proceed with their plans with peace of mind.

So what if we can't solve the mystery?

Why not just let Argel go up and kill the Demon King with one punch?

Sandra didn't care whether the Demon King, as a combatant, belonged to her community; she only wanted fewer of her comrades to die.

"You can't be so pessimistic. Even with me as your backup, you can't just sit and wait to die. As the newly appointed leader of the community, although you've encountered a major disaster right after taking office, this is also an excellent opportunity for you to gain the trust of all your comrades in the community. It's a chance to prove yourself," Chen Luo reprimanded Sandra in a serious tone.

“Yes!” Sandra straightened up instinctively, as if receiving instruction from someone in a higher position.

For example... [the teacher]

"This is your chance to prove yourself, good luck!" Chen Luo bent down and patted Sandra on the shoulder before walking out, glancing at Mandela as he passed by.

Mandela broke out in a cold sweat. Even Mandela didn't know why Chen Luo would give him such a terrifying look.

【The Dazzling Sandra】: Sandra, the newly appointed leader of the community, shines brightly in this great battle against the Demon King.

Reward: 2000+ Favorability of members belonging to the [Salamandra] community +30.

Difficulty: Four stars

The fact that it was a group of four-star commissions is also the reason why Chen Luo didn't knock Pest out with a single punch or kill her in one move.

"Oh, right, here, you can borrow this. Remember to return it to me after you defeat the Demon King." Before leaving, Chen Luo turned around and tossed a ball of flame to Sandra.

"This is..." Just as Sandra was about to take the ball of flame, it immediately merged into her body.

"The Primal Fire Demon Qi will greatly enhance your ability to use and control flames. It will be enough to make you shine in this battle against the Demon King." After saying this, Chen Luo turned and left.

"Mr. Chen Luo, where are you going?"

"He must be busy with something very important," said Black Rabbit, who attended the banquet last night.

Perhaps he's going to save the world.

“Yes, it is indeed very important… Do you want to come and see the White Yaksha make a fool of himself?” Chen Luo turned his head and invited.

Chapter 2024 Special Reward: Simulated Star Creation Map - Investiture of the Gods!

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Have you laughed enough?" White Yaksha asked, barely suppressing her anger.

"I haven't laughed enough. I'll laugh at this joke for the rest of my life."

"..." The White Demon was tempted to kill him to silence him.

"You bastard, did you know this would happen all along?"

After careful consideration, White Demon suddenly realized that Chen Luo seemed to have left many foreshadowing elements, all of which were foreshadowing her own current tragedy.

For example, Chen Luo asked if he needed Alger's help.

For example, readily agreeing to arrange a victory celebration banquet for oneself.

For example, someone might offer a large sum of money to help set up a shop during the Dragon's Birth Festival, but demand double compensation if the business is disturbed.

And... taking time out of their already limited leisure time to watch the game, but then skipping the game's plot.

You came to the Fire Dragon Birth Festival not to watch the competition, but just to watch me have fun, right?

Okay, okay, is this how you play it?

"You just wait!" White Yaksha gritted his teeth.

"Yes, yes, I'm looking forward to throwing you a celebration banquet." Chen Luo nodded.

"???"

Given this situation, you're going to throw me a victory celebration banquet.

Who are you celebrating with? Your own victory or mine?

"Don't look at me like that. You might not believe it, but... White Demon, I'm on your side." Chen Luo reached out and patted White Demon's shoulder.

"You might not believe it, but I really don't believe it."

White Yaksha rolled her eyes at Chen Luo, but then suddenly realized something, froze on the spot, and looked at Chen Luo's hand that had touched her shoulder.

"You can touch me." White Yaksha's tone rose. Although White Yaksha was now clearly trapped here, there were still very few people who dared to come here to investigate.

Therefore, the conversation between White Demon and Chen Luo is unlikely to be overheard by others.

White Demon had always thought that Chen Luo was using a special skill that prevented others from touching him and Chen Luo from touching others, which was why he was able to get close to her without being knocked away.

Now that Chen Luo can touch him, doesn't that mean that if some means are used, Bai Yacha can be brought back to the competition, changing from a participant who cannot fight to someone who can fully participate?

“I can always touch you, and even take you away from this sphere constructed by the black winds of death, but White Yaksha, are you really prepared to face the consequences?” Chen Luo’s smile slowly disappeared, as if he was testing White Yaksha.

What are the consequences?

"The reason I was able to take you away from this sphere constructed by the black winds of death is because I disregarded the rules of the Little Garden. You should understand that when rules are established, they create enormous benefits for those who break them. Like me. But once this bad precedent is set, the sacred nature of the Little Garden will be completely destroyed, and you will become the first traitor in the entire Little Garden, going down in history."
