Their commission was suspicious.

"Alright, let's get back to the fact that you've met all the heroes."

"Ugh, you're so annoying. Can't I admit I've only met five Heroes? Is it that I didn't want to see them? It's that they didn't want to see me, okay? Besides, according to Gray Serpent, the most a normal visitor would see is six or seven Heroes. I'm already pretty good that I've met five," Raven said unhappily.

The existence of heroes is not something you can just meet whenever you want. How could anyone have seen all of them? It's not like you live in the Land of Bliss for your entire life.

"Tch, shameful," Chen Luo said disdainfully.

"Heh, you think you're so great? If you manage to meet more than three heroes this time, I'll admit defeat." Raven curled his lip.

Raven's main purpose in going to Paradise was to have Eden appraise some items for her, and also to take Chen Luo to see the bell.

After all, it was he who accepted the commission to send Ling to the Land of the Dead, so he should at least let Chen Luo check on her to see if she was safe now.

In this way, at most you'll see two Yingjies, and at worst you'll see Möbius, who might have a strong desire to study Ling.

That's only three, and the probability of encountering Mebius is actually quite low.

“I think I’ll run into at least four,” Chen Luo retorted.

"A bet?" Raven asked.

"A bet? That's not a good idea."

"What? Are you scared?" the raven sneered.

"I bet!" When has Chen Luo ever been treated like this?

"What are you gambling?"

“50 work points,” Chen Luo said directly.

"So big?" The raven was startled and became somewhat hesitant.

50 work points! That's almost a day's wages for me.

But if you win, you win a day's wages.

"No need for 50 centimeters, let's go straight to 60," Raven said after steeling her resolve.

60 is basically equivalent to a day's wage. He earned 121 work points in two days, which averages out to 60 centimeters per day.

"Great! Generous! If we encounter no more than three heroes this time, you win; if we encounter four or more, I win. If I win, you pay me 60 centimeters; if you win, I'll give you an indenture voucher, or I'll give you 100 work points directly." Chen Luo said generously.

"It's a deal! Deal!" Raven nodded.

"Hmph." Chen Luo snorted coldly as he watched Raven agree to the bet, even though he was somewhat unsure of himself.

Although Raven knew that Chen Luo and Ling had a good relationship, Ling did not say anything about having met Chen Luo 5 years ago in front of him, and it seems that Ling did not say much about it afterward.

After all, Ling was preoccupied with her sister, so how could she have time to talk about this?

Whether Raven was unlucky or lucky, during her several visits to the bar, she coincidentally brushed past everyone who could mention the bar and the pre-civilization era.

Fortunately, Raven won't have to see Mebius, but unfortunately, Raven will lose to someone who's 60 centimeters tall today.

One work point is equivalent to 10 raw stones. If you could really gamble, it would be great to earn 600 raw stones directly. But as for work points, it's okay to recycle them.

Let's consider this as the general equivalent between Chen Luo and Raven.

Recycling also serves as a way to stimulate consumption.

Most importantly, the bet was proposed by Raven himself, and he even looked down on Chen Luo for not daring to take it.

Can Chen Luo put up with this?

“The contract has been made; those who break their word shall be punished by the law of eating rocks.”

"No, can you stop muttering that line all the time?" Raven complained.

"What do you know? He's handsome, isn't he?"

"No, I don't feel anything at all." Raven shook his head.

"Foolish woman..."

"You dare to curse again?" Raven quickly clenched his fist, intending to punch Chen Luo before he could apologize.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong." But Chen Luo apologized so quickly that he completely overwhelmed Raven.

"...If only you had apologized a little slower." Raven withdrew his fist, which was about to make intimate contact with Chen Luo's stomach.

"What a joke! As long as I apologize quickly enough, no one can hit me," Chen Luo sneered.

"..."

"Bang!" Raven, who had just withdrawn his fist, punched Chen Luo in the stomach.

"Cough cough, what are you doing?" Chen Luo pointed a trembling finger at the raven.

"Let me show you what it means: if apologies were enough, what would we need the police for?" Raven said irritably.

Don't think that just because you didn't apologize quickly enough, I can't hit you.

“Well, actually I think if you called the police, you'd be the first one they'd arrest. After all, you're a mercenary,” Chen Luo said after a moment of thought.

"You're just like a thief crying 'stop thief!'"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm a mercenary, but you're not much better off, are you? Aren't you unregistered? And you're an illegal immigrant too. We might as well die together," Raven said dismissively.

Although Raven knew that the police couldn't catch her and Chen Luo together, it didn't stop her from going against Chen Luo.

"You can't say that... How do you know that Gray Snake didn't get my ID and other documents sorted out while we were arguing?"

……

The Land of the Dead, the world's greatest secret, is a winding passageway that extends from a corner of the sacrificial site, leading to an unknown darkness.

This is where the World Serpent's executives undergo baptism and transformation, and it is also the place where the World Serpent executes the Stigmata Project. Not a single executive doubts this, yet they are confident in its success.

We have 13 outstanding heroes on our side, so tell me how we can possibly lose.

The Thirteen Heroes of Fire: a collective name for the 13 fusion warriors who survived the Firemoth after the "Tragedy of Restraint".

They are not only the pinnacle of combat power, but also the spiritual symbol of the world serpent.

Among these 13 heroes, the founder of the World Serpent originated from this group.

The pre-Mébius civilization, known as "Infinity," was a great scholar comparable to Dr. Mébius.

He is also the creator of the gray snake and the founder of the world snake.

However, it is worth mentioning that the current ruler of the World Serpent is Kevin, the savior who bears the name of savior, and not Mebius.

After passing through a long passageway, a huge golden palace finally appeared before Chen Luo.

"You world snakes are really something, can't you even build an elevator? Even if you don't have an elevator, you should at least build a cable car, right? Walking through such a long passageway is tiring, you know," Chen Luo complained.

"What right do you have to complain about being tired? You've been flying right here the whole time!" Raven couldn't ignore Chen Luo's shamelessness.

"But my phantom limbs are tired."

In response, Chen Luo decisively used the same words Paimon had used to deal with Yingmei to deal with Raven.

What is a phantom limb?

"That's a good question, I'd like to know too."

"...Installing an elevator is impossible. Although they are not exactly the same in nature, it might be easier to understand if you think of World Serpent as a religious organization. If the Stigmata Project is the doctrine of World Serpent, then a doctrine alone cannot gather believers. People need a specific deity, which is especially important in the early stages of the organization's development."

"Therefore, the world serpent must be ruled by a hero."

Have you ever seen the pilgrimage routes in Tibet, China? Or rather, the pilgrimage routes around the world are probably all like this; they are all built step by step.

"Have you ever seen a pilgrimage route that's entirely traversed by elevator, cable car, or even car? The World Serpent's passageway is only this short, so you should be grateful." Raven rolled her eyes at Chen Luo.

For the World Serpent's leaders, they were like believers to the Thirteen Heroes, these deities.

Therefore, the pilgrimage route is naturally necessary.

This is why World Snake didn't install any fast travel devices on this road.

"I see. But I bet you joined World Serpent just because they pay you a lot of money, right?" Chen Luo said after looking Raven up and down.

"Congratulations, you guessed right." Raven gave a thumbs up.

"Alright, alright, enough chatting. Hurry up and come back quickly, then give me 100 work points." Raven said, pointing to the golden palace at the end of the passageway.

If I'm fast enough, I can take Chen Luo out of the Paradise of the Past before he meets more heroes.

LOL, I'm definitely taking these 100 work points.

Even Jesus couldn't save him, I'm telling you!

"..."

Alas, it's a pity the raven will be disappointed.

Chen Luo looked at the golden palace, his eyelids twitching slightly.

There is a connection between Chen Luo and Ling.

In order to maintain Ling's existence, Chen Luo used the power of the Herrscher of Domination to erode her, but only 1% was eroded, which was used to maintain her body shape.

Because it only erodes 1%, it's naturally not as exaggerated as the quantum communication that exists between dolls.

Chen Luo could vaguely communicate with Cocolia even in another world.

However, the distance was already within 1 kilometer, and it was an open and unobstructed 1 kilometer, so Chen Luo could still vaguely sense something...

"Open your eyes and take a good look. This is the Paradise of the Dead. The Paradise of the Dead is wonderful in every way, but the only pity is that there are relatively few people." Raven said as he pushed open the gate of the Paradise of the Dead.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

As soon as Raven pushed open the door, countless fireworks burst forth, obscuring Raven's vision.

"Surprise!!!" A melodious voice rang out.

At the same time, a long-handled net used for catching big fish swept directly towards the raven and caught it in the net.

"???" The black dodo bird, suddenly caught in the net, looked completely bewildered.

What happened?

Chen Luo hovered three meters behind the raven, coldly watching everything unfold.

Chapter 231 Alicia: Lolo, give me a hug!

What happened?

When the raven saw those huge, colorful paper fireworks, it was completely dumbfounded. Did such things even exist in the Paradise of the Gods?

Who are we welcoming?

me?

The problem is, Eden probably wouldn't organize these kinds of rather ordinary events, would it?

Because the amount of fireworks was so large, it almost buried the raven completely. Then, a net came and covered the raven from head to toe.

Just as the raven realized what was happening and tried to tear the net apart, a pink burlap sack was suddenly thrown over its head.

???

What does that mean?

This series of movements was so fluid and seamless that it caught Raven completely off guard. Moreover, the opponent must have been very strong, leaving Raven with no way to defend itself.

So... the raven was put into a sack.

Chen Luo, who had already sensed that he was only a few meters away from his half-doll Ling, had retreated several meters to guard against any traps.

However, it turned out that it was indeed a scam.

As the fireworks gradually dissipated in all directions, the scene in front of Chen Luo began to become clear.

Chen Luo also caught a glimpse of a girl with cherry-pink hair, looking somewhat embarrassed and ashamed at the raven inside the pink sack.

"Haha, caught it, caught it, and it's a pink sack! This is a special prop that I asked Velvet to make, so it's impossible for it to break free so easily."

The source of the voice was a stunningly beautiful girl with waist-length pink hair. What was striking about her, besides her long pink hair, were her slender and beautiful ears, which were like those of an elf.
