Their commission was suspicious.

Latine and Wesel walked past Pest without saying a word, their eyes vacant, and then walked up to Chen Luo.

"What are they doing...?"

"Now only their bodies have been resurrected, while their souls remain in my hands and are being transformed by me." Two golden orbs of light appeared in Chen Luo's hands.

If your eyesight is good enough, you can see two little figures seemingly struggling inside the golden sphere of light.

The method for reviving Ratine and Weser is similar to that for reviving Pest, but with slight differences.

Lating and Wesel were included in the Investiture of the Gods immediately after their deaths.

Rounding up, it's equivalent to not being completely dead at all.

But Pest is different; if Pest doesn't die once, the Gift Game can never truly end.

Therefore, Chen Luo only intercepted a small part of Pest's true spirit as the ownership of Pest's soul, but the vast majority of Pest's soul did indeed go through a cycle of circulation under the rules of the miniature garden before falling into Chen Luo's hands.

Does that sound a bit like money?

It was precisely because the souls of Lating and Wesel remained in the Investiture of the Gods that Chen Luo could act on their souls at will!

"Hahaha! Pest, just watch as your former comrade is completely tainted by my colors!" Chen Luo said, laughing wildly.

"Come forward, and I will grant you new life!"

La Ting and Wesel, who could only perform simple movements with their bodies, knelt down on one knee, allowing Chen Luo, who was in a wheelchair, to touch his forehead more easily.

Pest still tried to stop her, but just as she was about to step out of the magic circle, she was suddenly bound in place by dark chains.

"Stop! Your behavior of forcing others is no different from that of a demon king!" Pest shouted angrily.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

While Pest may not have spent a very long time with Ratine and Weser, she was extremely loyal and devoted to them.

Seeing her two former comrades being subdued by such dirty and despicable means, Pest, as the leader of the community, felt extremely humiliated.

However, to Pest's surprise, Chen Luo actually stopped when he heard Pest's words of dissuasion.

This left Pest speechless.

I told you to stop, and you actually stopped?

"You mean you don't want me to force them, right?" Chen Luo asked, holding up the two orbs of light.

"That's right!"

"So as long as they're willing, that's fine, right?" Chen Luo asked again.

"...That's right."

"I can let them go, but won't you have to pay some price?" Chen Luo asked.

“…I am already yours,” Pest said resignedly.

"As long as you don't force them, I'm willing to listen to you, Suiyuan."

"I understand now." Chen Luo nodded.

Chen Luo waved his hand, and two golden beams swept over the two of them.

Weser and Ratine slowly opened their eyes, which regained their sparkle.

"here it is……"

"What happened?"

Latine and Wesel were still somewhat unclear about the current situation.

"Simply put, I have resurrected you two. Now you have two options: either die truly, or become my subordinates," Chen Luo said.

“Kill me, gulp!” La Ting stretched out her neck.

"Wait, it's Master." Wesel tugged at Latine's sleeve and pointed behind her.

"Phew... I'm so glad you two are alright." Pest breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I don't know why, Chen Luo seems to have really listened to the advice.

It simply resurrected the other party, but it seems that only half of the ownership of the other party was taken away.

The other half is still in Pest's hands.

I don't know if the other party did it on purpose.

"I didn't expect that you, Master, would also be defeated." Lating sighed.

"Alright, enough with the reminiscing. I think you two have a lot of potential, so I'm planning to recruit you both," Chen Luo said, revealing his thoughts.

“I originally intended to forcibly turn you into my subordinates, but your former master stopped me in exchange for her willingness to sincerely obey my orders. Although she was never able to break free from my grasp, it was still very touching, so I plan to give you a choice. Don’t worry, I will keep my promise and will not force you,” Chen Luo said.

"Owner……"

"They were so touched."

“However… I promised Pest I wouldn’t force you, but if you’re willing, then it’s fine.” Chen Luo clapped his hands, attracting the attention of the group.

Do you think we'd be that stupid?

"Of course you won't just submit to me so easily, but what if I said... if you don't agree to become my subjects, then I will devour the 8,000 million people that Pest represents, piece by piece, leaving Pest alone in despair, sorrow, regret, and pain, as if she has lost her soul, becoming my possession, at my mercy... then what will you choose?"

"???"

"!!!"

The White Demon even forgot to chuckle to himself.

"As expected, the consequences of offending Chen Luo are dire, aren't they?"

"That's despicable!"

"Although I feel I shouldn't, I suddenly feel a little sorry for these demon kings."

The three troubled children were whispering amongst themselves nearby.

That's terrifying. If Chen Luo becomes the villain, that would be truly horrifying.

They are adept at both killing and destroying the spirit.

“You promised me!” Pest said angrily.

“Yes, I promised you I wouldn’t force them, and I haven’t forced them, have I? I gave them a choice.” Chen Luo tilted his head.

“They can choose to disobey my orders, and I might even set them free. They can choose to watch you fall completely into the abyss.”

"Despicable! Shameless! Unworthy of being called a god!" In an instant, Pest uttered every curse word she could think of.

However, it lacks a bit of aggression.

Pest was surprised that Chen Luo would choose to threaten her with his own men, and then use her to threaten his own men.

Even the Demon King wouldn't do something like this!

“You’re wrong to think that way. After all, you threatened us with our community members a few days ago when you interrupted the negotiations at the Gift Game, especially by threatening me with my subordinates. Have you forgotten?” Chen Luo looked at the forgetful Pest in surprise.

“…” Pest could only grit her teeth and stare at Chen Luo, unable to utter a word of objection.

However... Pestle vaguely remembered that Chen Luo's attitude towards his community members was "let them die"?

“Alright, I agree to become your subordinate, and please don’t treat Lady Pest like this anymore.” Latine sighed and looked up as she spoke.

“No, we must not yield to this demon king!” Pest said fiercely.

"Oh, so that means you're willing to offer up your 8000 million in achievements for me? Watching those 8,000 million who died in the Black Death being devoured by me one by one?" Chen Luo seemed somewhat surprised.

“Gulp!” Pest was speechless.

Pest values ​​her fellow members of her community, but as a representative of the 8,000 million vengeful spirits who died in the Black Death, she also values ​​the legacy she bears.

For Pest, it wasn't an honor, but something she wanted to remember!

“If my sacrifice can ensure that Lady Pest lives in peace and has the opportunity to take revenge on the sun again… Anyway, once the summoned creature is repaired and resummoned, the outcome is already irreversible. So now the only option left is to surrender, isn’t it?” Weser also looked up at Chen Luo.

“No…” Pest’s voice murmured.

But it wasn't firm.

The test Chen Luo gave was a test of humanity.

Either abandon your comrades, or abandon what you've been carrying all this time.

But while Pest was wavering between the two, Weser and Ratine had already made their choice.

“Master, we are already very happy that we hold such a high place in your heart,” La Ting said with a smile.

Because she understood everything Pest carried, Latine knew how much weight those 8,000 million in achievements carried in Pest's heart.

The fact that Pest could waver because of this was already the greatest recognition of both herself and the threat.

“Come on, Demon King.” Latin and Weser looked at Chen Luo at the same time.

"Are you sure you don't need to reconsider? I'm very humane." Chen Luo accepted the milk tea from Fu Hua and said thank you.

"no need."

"No..." Pest had already broken down, and she was almost crying.

Meanwhile, Black Rabbit, standing nearby, couldn't help but shed tears upon seeing these people sacrifice so much for their comrades.

After all, rabbits became the nobles of the miniature garden precisely because they were willing to sacrifice themselves for their companions.

Then Black Rabbit suddenly realized... that he was actually the villain?

Oh my god, I really want to kick Chen Luo's ass hard with my Uncle Jules' size 48 slippers!

Above the boundary wall, the atmosphere gradually became stagnant.

Some people think Chen Luo went too far, while others think he went too far.

"Sigh, why is everyone so tense? Did I overact? You didn't take what I just said seriously, did you?" Chen Luo, sitting in his wheelchair, took a sip of tea and slowly raised his head.

"Ok?"

"What?"

"..."

"Ahem, I... I just wanted this evil demon king to experience the difficult feeling we had when we interrupted the Gift Game to negotiate, between losing the game and becoming someone else's vassal and the possibility that our community members might all be wiped out by the Black Death."

"Who's the evil one between us?" Although Pest, kneeling in the magic circle, wanted to say that, she didn't dare to refute it for fear of angering Chen Luo.

However, Pest breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it was all just a test.

"So you won't force them to do things they don't want to do? You won't force them to become your subordinates? You won't make them choose between their companions and everything they bear?" Black Rabbit asked hurriedly.

"Of course not." Chen Luo nodded.

The tense and sorrowful atmosphere vanished instantly.

"After all, they were already my subordinates. The moment they were resurrected... Didn't I tell you? Once you're on the Investiture of the Gods, your life and death are no longer in your own hands. So I was just teasing Pest just now."

"Bastard! I'm going to kill you!"

Chapter 2062 Pest: I'll break your legs sooner or later and make you spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair!

"This is yours."

"This is yours."

Chen Luo sent the two divine attributes to La Ting and Wesel respectively.

Lating and Wesley looked at what they had just received. Although they still had some "stereotypes" about Chen Luo, they were still somewhat flattered.

This is a divine status, and you just gave it away so easily?

Wylie was especially surprised, because she had been granted divinity by Pest before the Game of Gifts was restarted after it was interrupted.

Although Lating and Weser disappeared once, they did not disappear completely. Instead, they entered the Investiture of the Gods, so Weser's divine status did not disappear and is still preserved.

According to the rules of the Investiture of the Gods, if someone is born with a divine status, they will receive a four-figure divine status after being conferred a title.

In the understanding of the people in the small garden, it means to further strengthen the divine status.

This gift is far too expensive for anyone to receive.
