Their commission was suspicious.

"So I became your source of inspiration?"

“It is one of them,” Genyuan said.

"Merlin's self-destruction was also material?"

"That's right!"

"Will we really need it?"

"Don't worry about whether you'll actually use it or not, just film it first. The most painful thing in the world is dying with money left over, or dying with no money left. And for an editor, the most painful thing is running out of footage before the final cut is finished," Genyuan said.

"So, do I have to keep Tiamat by my side all the time and act along with her according to the script?" Chen Luo scratched his head.

Chen Luo isn't good at acting.

"No need. You just need to do whatever you want, I'll take care of that." Genyuan waved his hand.

The root cause is the best at taking things out of context.

However, even a skilled cook can't cook without rice; you still need some ingredients.

As for duplicate footage... a good editor will not use duplicate footage!

Unless it's something as extraordinary as an endless August.

Because, in addition to the official storyline, some side quests and even official fan-made storylines can keep the world on the right track and provide some source of the world, some worlds are not too harsh on transmigrators.

However, this excludes worlds with only a single storyline.

"Since you've put it that way, I'll help you take care of Tiamat, considering how kind you've been. But have you thought about something?" Chen Luo asked, shifting his gaze from the upper left corner of his retina.

Chen Luo was reading information about Tiamat, the creator goddess, when he noticed a small problem.

"What's the problem?"

"You asked me to take care of Tiamat, but I just glanced at her information. I didn't summon a child, I summoned a mother! Is she raising me or am I raising her?"

Although countless comments like "Tiamat" and "Feed Tiamat the Holy Grail" appeared in the bullet screen while watching videos about Tiamat, it would be strange to actually summon her in reality under such circumstances.

"???"

"..."

"!!!"

Chen Luo carefully observed Gen Yuan's expression, and then witnessed Gen Yuan's initial confusion, his subsequent realization of something, and finally his visible panic.

"Oh no, oh no, oh no..." Genyuan muttered something as he paced anxiously around the bar.

Chen Luo felt a little dizzy watching the source walk back and forth in front of him.

"You stay here and don't move. I'll go think of a solution..." After saying that, Genyuan disappeared in a flash.

"Sigh, wait, my raw stone..." Chen Luo reached out, but the source had already vanished without a trace.

"Bang!" But the source that had just disappeared reappeared, and then hurriedly asked.

"Xiao Luo, how many powers do you have now? Never mind, show us your River God power and Corrosion power again," the Origin urged.

"Oh."

Chen Luo snapped his fingers, and a golden light shot out from the Poké Ball hanging on his waist, coalescing into the shape of Vita. Before Vita could react, Chen Luo had taken a wisp of dark color from her.

These are the negative emotions that Chen Luo took from Vita, whether it's irritability, anger, greed, etc... Vita, this bad woman, has an inexhaustible supply of negative emotions.

Just the fact that Vita didn't forget to cut off a portion of Sa's power before running away with the bucket shows just how greedy this wicked woman is.

By casting this wisp of dark emotion into the summoned river of time, the number of dark emotions instantly multiplied several times over.

Collect these dark emotions, then rub them together with your hands...

The black Holy Grail is now ready!

Transforming dark emotions into the driving force and magic of power is one of the basic abilities of the power of erosion, and also the ability of the Key of Erosion.

This miniature Holy Grail may have limited wishes that can be granted, but it has the effect of growing by absorbing the negative emotions of those around it. If the other party is a demon, vengeful spirit, or evil spirit, it can even turn them directly into nourishment.

This is the embodiment of world-class power, and can be called the Holy Grail of Sin or the Holy Grail of Darkness.

However, it's not without its side effects. While the negative emotions that form the basis of this Holy Grail are of high quality, they are few in number, so the digestion process is somewhat slow.

During the digestion process, those without great perseverance are very likely to be misled by the Holy Grail—that is, they will be overwhelmed by the noise.

"I accidentally created something that seems quite dangerous. But it's perfectly fine to use as a wine glass in a bar." Sensing Vita's curiosity about the small Holy Grail and the slight greed that had just arisen, Chen Luo had no intention of giving it to Vita, the source.

Hilarious! A guy who's always thinking about robbing his boss and running away with the bucket, if he got this Holy Grail, his idea of ​​running away with the bucket would probably become even more determined.

The problem is that Chen Luo is now Vita's boss.

"Oh... I think I understand." Genyuan nodded after carefully observing Chen Luo's two abilities for a while.

"What do you understand?"

"I know how to write the initial script now. I'll go write it now..." After saying that, Root hurriedly left.

Chen Luo and Vita were left speechless, looking at each other.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing..." Half of Genyuan's body popped out again.

"...You're really scary. Do you believe I'll throw some raw gems at you?" Chen Luo said, holding a few raw gems between his fingers.

"Hey, wait... I came here to remind you. Your River God ability... if you could obtain the same level of Time Authority as the River God's ability, it might give him a huge boost," Root reminded him.

"Oh, what do you mean?"

"What I mean is, seeing how skillfully you use the River of Time... Although only one gold or silver item can exist at a time when you summon it using the River of Time, with the power of time, the gold or silver item should be able to be replenished immediately after it is lost."

“After all… you damaged the golden item from the previous second, not the golden item from this second. As long as the item itself is not destroyed, theoretically speaking, the golden item can have the characteristic of infinite regeneration,” Root said.

"..." Upon hearing the theory of the root, Chen Luo looked at the root in surprise.

"What's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything?"

"I originally thought you rose to your position by being a lazy bum, but I didn't expect you to have such insights into the combination of abilities. Thank you for your guidance."

Upon hearing Chen Luo's reply, Genyuan's eyes widened slowly.

"What are you saying? What kind of talk is that? Let me tell you, before I and my two transcendent accessories were wreaking havoc in the dimensional sea, your mother wasn't even pregnant with you! Is this how you view a respectable senior?"

"You and your two transcendent pendants..." Chen Luo pondered these words.

"Ahem, it's just a rhetorical device. Don't take it so seriously, it's just that although I rarely take action, I know a lot." Genyuan coughed twice.

"Then... is reincarnation possible?" Chen Luo asked.

"Reincarnation? This attribute... is quite fitting. The meaning of endless life is a special supplement to the River God's abilities."

"But I was just mentioning it casually, so don't pay too much attention to this kind of thing. Don't put the cart before the horse. Your most important thing right now is to deeply awaken your talent. Once your talent is fully awakened, you might be able to achieve the level of having your wishes fulfilled."

"Why bother with reincarnation and river god powers then? Just [think] and the opponent will be instantly killed. That's much faster than using powers," the Origin instructed.

"Understood." Chen Luo nodded.

As expected of someone with a global perspective, they know so much.

No wonder she could wreak havoc in the dimensional sea with her two transcendent pendants.

"Um... Boss, could you give me that glass you're holding? I'd like to use it to hold drinks." After the source disappeared and only she and Chen Luo remained in the bar, Vita said to Chen Luo somewhat shyly.

Vita was naturally referring to the Holy Grail of Sin in Chen Luo's hands.

"Hmm... I can't give it to you because it's not suitable for you. But I can lend it to you for now." Chen Luo thought for a moment and handed the Holy Grail to Vita.

The moment Vita acquired the Grail of Sin, she heard a whispering voice coming from within it.

I'm going to grab a bucket and run away.

【Damn it!】

The little Vitas are so cute!

[Raise wages! Raise wages! Raise wages!]

[Rest! Rest! Rest!]

I think Chen Luo still retains her charm...

Vita was starting to panic.

Because this Sinful Grail, or rather the Dark Grail, is currently only formed from Vita's negative emotions, all that can be heard now is Vita's whispers.

And this murmur contained almost all of Vita's negative emotions.

This can be described as a complete revelation of his dark past.

Vita didn't even dare to think about what would happen if Chen Luo found out about her innermost thoughts... No, Chen Luo probably already knows.

"Wait, wait a minute, what's with the last sentence?"

"Oh, I extracted a bit too much of your negative emotions just now, so even the fleeting thoughts that occasionally flashed through my mind were extracted," Chen Luo replied calmly.

"Perhaps it was when you, in your golden form, teased me that a thought flashed through your mind, or perhaps it was when you were carrying the bucket and running away with Suo's head that you acknowledged the help I gave you. In any case, thoughts are something that can never be controlled. So don't worry about it," Chen Luo comforted him.

If you fall off your bicycle and get a scrape on your elbow, even after it has scabbed over for a while, you might still find yourself touching it, even if you tell yourself not to.

For example, when you see someone accidentally kick the corner of a table with their little finger while watching a video, you might wonder how much it would hurt if you bumped into it.

"Of all virtues, filial piety is the most important. It is judged by the heart, not by the deeds. If judged by deeds, there are no filial sons in poor families. Of all vices, lust is the worst. It is judged by the deeds, not by the heart. If judged by heart, there are no perfect people in the world. So you don't need to feel burdened by this."

"Stop trying to comfort me with such a serious face!" Vita said, squatting down in frustration and covering her head.

What could be more shameful than having your thoughts inadvertently discovered by someone else? It's when you're completely unaware that you have these thoughts but can't refute them.

If, on this basis, the person being fantasized about learns of their own thoughts and then tries to comfort themselves, that would be even more significant.

Seeing the Dark Grail in Vita's hand, whose thoughts were in complete disarray, growing larger little by little, Chen Luo nodded in satisfaction.

The Dark Grail works pretty well, but it grows a bit slowly.

Only children think the world is black and white; adults only see the world as a dark place.

Therefore, this thing can continue to grow as long as it is placed in a crowd of people.

It would actually work in a kindergarten, because although young children may not realize it, their actions are sometimes more in line with the Dark Grail's ideals than those of adults.

At least adults won't tell outrageous lies like "My dad burned down the Old Summer Palace."

As we all know, the cameras in kindergartens are used to protect teachers.

The upper limit of this Holy Grail depends on the upper limit of the evil thoughts that form the foundation of the Holy Grail and the power infused by Chen Luo.

If Goetia had possessed the Dark Grail, he wouldn't have needed the seven singularities at all. He could have simply placed the Grail in the modern world and burned down the entire human race within three years.

"Fine, here's your Holy Grail back." After going crazy for a while, Vita returned the Holy Grail to Chen Luo.

However, Vita didn't know if it was just her imagination, but she always felt that the Holy Grail seemed to have grown a little.

Vita was right, because... complaining is also a form of negative emotion.

"This Holy Grail is not something anyone can possess. Holding it will only bring you more trouble," Chen Luo said, taking back the Holy Grail.

“Who could possibly use something like this? It’s just annoying to even hear about,” Vita complained.

However, it seemed to be just annoying. Perhaps because she was in a bar, Vita didn't feel any allure from the Holy Grail.

“Yes. And quite a few. Compared to collecting negative emotions, devouring evil spirits provides more help to the Holy Grail, and coincidentally, there are people who need to eliminate evil spirits.” Chen Luo examined the Dark Holy Grail in his hand, then took out a carving knife and began to inscribe patterns on it.

The Dark Grail is still somewhat rough and needs Chen Luo to polish it carefully.

Although this Dark Grail was created casually by Chen Luo, its potential is not low. It is only a prototype now, but it will be of great use after being refined.

"Who?"

"boom!"

"jingle!"

The wind chimes rang.

"Huh? Sister Ling, what brings you here? The bar isn't open yet." Upon seeing the newcomer, Chen Luo stopped carving the Dark Grail.

"Huh? It's not open yet? I was still half asleep, sorry." Ling shook his head and said.

"...That's really like you. Oh, by the way, would your sister like to touch the Holy Grail?" Chen Luo asked, holding up the Holy Grail in his hand.

"What is this? A magnificent wine glass?" Ling was quite interested in the golden glass in Chen Luo's hand.

However, upon closer inspection, he sensed that it was something dangerous.
