Their commission was suspicious.

Yuyuko has a pretty high status in the bar... mainly because under normal circumstances, all Yuyuko thinks about is food.

Chen Luo likes people who enjoy eating.

Yuyuko provided Chen Luo with nearly four or five thousand raw stones just from the consumption of various drinks in the bar.

Yuyuko doesn't need to worry about being targeted, but Yukari Yakumo does.

"Just kidding, I'm super brave, okay? Why would I be afraid he'd make things difficult for me?" Yukari Yakumo laughed nonchalantly, seemingly unconcerned.

Then I sent Chen Luo a private message.

Yukari Yakumo: I'm sorry, I was wrong.

Yuyuko is right.

A small leak will sink a great ship.

Chen Luo had no time to reply to Yakumo Yukari's apology text message, because the current situation was already enough to give him a headache.

Stargazing and Moonlit Night sat obediently at the same table in the bar, looking very well-behaved, but their eyes met and there was no trace of friendliness between them.

It was more like seeing a nemesis.

More important than the fact that she entered the bar under the moon and saw Guan Xing embracing Chen Luo was perhaps an inexplicable sense of destiny.

[Captain, do you prefer the stars or the moon? Think it over before you answer.]

"..."

Hearing the prompt from the user-friendly plugin gave Chen Luo an even bigger headache.

Chen Luo recalled that when he summoned the Golden Moon, it had indeed asked him this question, and Chen Luo's answer at the time was quite straightforward... the moon.

Chen Luo wasn't unaware of who those two terms represented at the time, but the problem was that he hadn't yet encountered the stargazer.

But now I've run into him.

What's worse is that the Golden Moon at the time had Chen Luo specially make a light cone, which was then handed over to the original Moon.

Chen Luo had no idea that the stargazing would happen so quickly.

However, there's no need to panic too much. The problem isn't too big. At least for now, Yuexia shouldn't connect the issue of the light cone with the current situation.

Yuexia probably isn't that smart...

My lord, I have a plan...

"explain."

【Summon Golden Stargazer and Golden Moonlit Night now, and they'll start fighting immediately. Since they're so skilled at it, you don't need to get involved, my lord. Just sit back and watch them fight. Watching women fight is especially entertaining.】

"..."

So, to prevent you from committing suicide, the only option is to shoot you dead first, right?

The problem isn't that serious yet...

"Imperial Preceptor, where is my star-gazing instrument?" Seeing Chen Luo dawdling towards him, the star-gazing instrument decided to help him.

"Huh? Oh... an observatory..." Chen Luo's voice trailed off.

At the same time, he gestured to Fu Xuan beside him with his eyes.

"Oh, the Star Gazing Instrument? That was originally mine, but after Chen Luo's improvements and imbued it with his aura, it can now be considered a completely new and special item. So I hope this Star Gazing Sister will use it well and not tarnish the name of this Star Gazing Instrument." Fu Xuan instantly understood Chen Luo's meaning.

"..."

I don't think you understand anything at all!

Chen Luo then realized that Fu Xuan, the Grand Diviner who ate nothing but flatbread every day, didn't seem to know how to read people's expressions and act accordingly.

You're lucky you have an extra eye for detail compared to others.

Fu Xuan's words were better left unsaid, as they only piqued Yuexia's curiosity.

"Is it tainted with human scent?" Yuexia's eyes lit up.

“That’s mine,” the stargazer kindly reminded him.

"...Hmph! Who would want that star-gazing instrument?" Yuexia immediately snorted coldly.

"Alright, Imperial Advisor, shouldn't you bring out the Star Gazing Instrument now?" the Star Gazing Master said with a smile.

"Here you go..." Chen Luo took out a stargazing instrument that was very similar in color to the original stone without changing his expression, and then placed it in front of the stargazing instrument.

Upon seeing the color of this observatory, Yuexia immediately thought of Chen Luo's unique raw stone and couldn't help but feel envious.

If it weren't for Fu Xuan's explanation that the star-gazing instrument was imbued with Chen Luo's aura and had been modified by Chen Luo himself, Yuexia would have truly believed that Chen Luo had spent a fortune using raw stones to create the instrument.

Unexpectedly, after glancing at the star-gazing instrument that Chen Luo had promised, Guan Xing did not pick it up immediately, but continued to look at Chen Luo.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Chen Luo asked.

"Imperial Preceptor, if the Imperial Preceptor is not present, this astronomical instrument will probably lose its automatic protective effect, right?" the astronomical observer asked.

"It will still be effective, although the effect won't be as strong as before. It can still effectively defend against incoming attacks. Moreover, due to the special material, it can block most attacks, and even some mental or magical attacks," Chen Luo said.

However, it cannot withstand all-around attacks that resemble black holes.

"With the Star Gazing Instrument reflecting the soul of the Imperial Preceptor protecting me, it is indeed easy to feel a great sense of security..." The Star Gazing smiled.

"That……"

"But that's not enough."

"Ok?"

"I would like to trouble the Imperial Advisor to enhance this star-gazing instrument to silver and gold, and to create three star-gazing instruments. This would likely increase the level of defense," the star-gazing expert said.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

“…Okay, no problem.” Chen Luo glanced at Yuexia sitting opposite him at the stargazing altar and nodded.

Although turning one stargazing instrument into three will increase the envy under the moon, we can't let the raw stones go to waste.

After the star-gazing instrument in front of him changed from one to three, he reached out and beckoned to the three instruments. The three instruments flew towards him swiftly like swallows returning to his bosom, and he gently wiped them with a cloth.

Because the astrolabe has been acting as a guardian for stargazing since the beginning of the mutation, it can be used for stargazing without any hindrance.

"It feels really good to be protected by these three star-gazing instruments. It's like the Imperial Advisor is always by my side protecting me. I feel very safe."

"Hmph, what's the use of a sense of security? These three stargazing instruments are so big, they must be in the way." Yuexia muttered unconvinced.

"..." After hearing Yuexia's jealous words, Guanxing just smiled lightly. The three head-sized star-gazing instruments began to shrink until they were the size of marbles, and then they turned into a bracelet and were put on Guanxing's wrist.

"Thank you for your concern, Miss Yuexia. I hope I'm alright now?" Guanxing said, shaking the bracelet on her wrist.

"What's so great about bracelets? Three beads on a bracelet, they're not pretty at all." Yuexia felt even more jealous, but she held back.

"Grand Preceptor~~ Miss Yuexia is right, a bracelet with only three beads doesn't look very nice. Please help me, Grand Preceptor." Guanxing changed her usual calm and composed demeanor and said in a coquettish voice.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"...Okay, okay. Here you go." Chen Luo forced himself to take out something that looked like an event coupon and handed it to Guan Xing.

"what is this?"

"Skin vouchers. They can change the appearance of equipment, but they don't affect the item's stats," Chen Luo explained.

This item wasn't obtained from the Chen Luo gacha pool, but rather from the Abyss Passage.

Most of the items produced in the Abyss Passage cannot exert their full effect outside of the Abyss Passage, but fortunately the golden skin voucher's effect remains unchanged—after all, the skin voucher itself doesn't have any special abilities, it can only change the appearance of the equipment.

Inside the abyss passage, more and more adventurers from the paradise were appearing, and items like skin vouchers were piling up. If Guan Xing wanted them, Chen Luo could give her a few hundred so she could farm them for fun.

However, there is good news: although the items produced in the Abyss Passage are greatly weakened outside the Abyss Passage and within the world, the weakening is less severe in the Dimensional Sea.

This is because of the unique inclusiveness of the Dimensional Sea.

For this reason, these items from the Abyss Passage have gradually begun to be listed in the Paradise Shop of the Dimensional Sea.

Although the effect is slightly weakened, the price is relatively low, but the quantity is large.

"Thank you, Imperial Preceptor! You've been so kind to me, I don't know how to repay you. I have no way to repay you, except to offer myself..."

[Ding! Mission complete!]

"Enough, enough. Stargazing, calm down. Or I'll confiscate your stargazing device." Chen Luo said, looking at Yuexia, who was almost furious, across from Stargazing.

A brilliant plan to secure peace under the moonlight ended in failure, resulting in the loss of both wife and army!

Because of a jealous remark, Guanxing obtained a seemingly powerful skin voucher from Chen Luo, and Yuexia's mentality was about to explode.

"Imperial Preceptor... no. Human, I want one too. I want the Moon Viewing Instrument! Please, human." Yuexia blinked, then grabbed Chen Luo's arm and pleaded.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"what?"

Don't just hear about stargazing and want a stargazing instrument; you'd want a moon-gazing instrument if you were under the moon.

A moon-viewing device? How could such a thing exist...?

No, there really is.

"???"

"A moon-viewing instrument? Never heard of it?" Guan Xing tilted his head.

Because theoretically speaking, the moon is also a "star".

Fu Xuan had never heard of it either, but he didn't say anything.

"You haven't heard of it? That's not true. You must be ignorant. Humans can definitely produce it!" Yuexia said confidently.

It seems that Yuexia is more confident than Chen Luo that Chen Luo can produce the Moon Viewing Instrument.

[Under the Moonlight: My Humans Dare to...]

[Imperial Advisor: My Imperial Advisor dares to do this!]

“…Yes, there are some, but they might not be what you’re thinking.” Chen Luo took out a card with a strange expression.

"what is this?"

"The moon-viewing instrument you want—the sunken moon-viewing instrument."

"???"

[Sunken Moon Gazing Instrument]: Summon a copy of this minion.

This card means that you can pay a certain amount of energy to summon a copy of one of your units.

It sounds somewhat similar to the Ancient Mirror of Divine Illumination, but its effects are far inferior, and the summoned clones are rather dull in their intelligence.

But tell me, is this a moon-viewing instrument or not?

This was an item Chen Luo obtained from today's gacha draw. However, since it was only three-star, Chen Luo didn't bother to remember it. Anyway, the user-friendly plugin would remind him if he needed it.

[Ding! Mission complete!]

To everyone's surprise, Chen Luo actually pulled out a moon-viewing instrument, which greatly surprised Guan Xing and Fu Xuan.

Even after obtaining the Moon Gazing Instrument, Yuexia was not very satisfied with it... because it was too different from the prop she had imagined.

Of course, in terms of effect alone, this card's attributes are indeed quite good.

"This moon-viewing instrument... well, it really is a moon-viewing instrument. I was just ignorant." Guan Xing sighed.

The Imperial Advisor is indeed remarkable; he can come up with anything.

“Moonlight, if you’re not satisfied with this stargazing instrument, perhaps you could throw it into the Wishing Cauldron and see if you can get something that suits you,” Chen Luo said, seemingly having read Moonlight’s mind, as he beckoned the Wishing Cauldron over and placed it on the table.

"Alas, but this is the first precious gift that humans have given me..." Although this moon-viewing instrument is indeed somewhat different from what I had imagined under the moon, what matters is not the preciousness of the gift, but the person who gave it.

“It’s alright. I also have a silver and a gold Sunken Moon Gazing Instrument here, and this Wishing Cauldron is mine too. If you don’t get what you want, you can take the silver and gold Sunken Moon Gazing Instrument as a consolation prize,” Chen Luo said.

The silver and gold versions of the [Sunken Moon Gazing Instrument] are certainly effective, but they are definitely not as good as the Ancient Mirror of Divine Illumination.

With the Divine Mirror, who still needs the Moon-Viewing Instrument?

Besides, Chen Luo didn't use the Divine Mirror before it was available.

"Then... shall I give it a try?"

"Give it a try. If you manage to throw something you like, I'll enhance it with the River God's power, and then you'll have three useful items!"

Wait a minute, Chen Luo suddenly discovered the key point!
