Their commission was suspicious.

"No, one set of collectibles from another world is enough." The scum snake shook its head.

"Then I can buy it for you with money."

"Oh, really? How many yen are you prepared to offer?" Mebius's question piqued Snake's interest.

"What Japanese yen?" Mebius was a little confused.

What is the Japanese yen?

"The Japanese yen is the currency issued by countries in the Far East. Your worlds are different, how could your currencies be the same?" At this moment, Chen Luo walked over.

The worldview and currency used in Honkai Impact 3rd are indeed the same as those in Chen Luo's world. At least the 1000 yen that Chen Luo obtained could not be detected by the simple currency verification methods of this world.

The problem is that the previous civilization was clearly different from this one, at least in terms of currency.

“Then I will buy it with gold,” Möbius said after a moment of silence.

Gold will eventually become popular, right?

“Gold is fine, but do you have a receipt for the gold purchase?” The little evil god nodded and asked Mebius.

"A gold purchase invoice?" Mebius was taken aback again.

"Doctor, a gold purchase invoice is usually needed when buying back gold at a gold shop to prove the legitimacy of the gold's origin. But we live in two different worlds. A legitimate gold purchase invoice in our world probably won't be valid in other worlds," Klein said softly.

“However, some gold shops are willing to buy back money if you're willing to sell it at a low price. After all, even stolen money can be bought back if the profit is high enough. It's just that the process is a bit complicated.” At this moment, Chen Luo suddenly spoke up for Möbius.

“In that case, I’m willing to offer one kilogram of gold, no, two kilograms of gold, just enough to buy some meat.” Möbius glanced at Chen Luo, who was praising him, and then looked at the Little Evil God.

"Oh, is it too much trouble? Then forget it? If it's too much trouble, I might as well just ask Medusa for money." After thinking for a moment, the little evil god shook his head and refused.

Medusa is Little Evil God's childhood friend. Her family is wealthy, and she never refuses Little Evil God's requests, making her practically an ATM.

In fact, Little Evil God's family is quite wealthy.

“…Then I can exchange various resources.” Although Mebius didn’t know who Medusa was, it was clear that this deal had fallen through.

"No, the shop manager has already agreed to let me eat and drink here for free." The little evil god shook his head again.

Mebius looked at Chen Luo once again.

Chen Luo shrugged and said, "I didn't know you also wanted to buy the flesh of the evil god."

You can't blame me for this.

"And by the way, this place is all about free food and drinks. Even you didn't pay yesterday, did you?" Chen Luo casually remarked.

"Wait, then wouldn't I be at a loss?" The little evil god was stunned for a moment.

"No, how could you be at a loss? How about this, I'll allow you to bring other people to the store to eat and drink for free, how about that?" Chen Luo said to the little evil god.

"Hmm, that's fine. You're a good person, and I find you pleasing to the eye." The little evil god patted Chen Luo on the shoulder.

If I bring Medusa to this magical shop where you can eat and drink for free, she'll be very grateful, and it'll be even easier to get money from her in the future.

The effect of "Friend of the Non-Human" is already amazing.

Perhaps Chen Luo has already been regarded as a friend by the Little Evil God.

Chen Luo wasn't happy at all, because becoming the Little Evil God's friend often meant being tricked even more badly by him.

However, I forgave her because she might have brought other guests.

"Oh right, this should be yours. Here you go." Just as Chen Luo was about to go see Wendy, he remembered something and returned an earring to Mebius.

This is what Mebius left in the shop yesterday when he was dancing and swirling a wine glass here.

To reiterate, Möbius's behavior when drunk was truly appalling.

Mebius, who got the earring back, didn't even say thank you.

Mebius originally came to retrieve the earring, but now she has an even more important purpose.

We must get our hands on that evil god's flesh.

Such terrifying self-healing ability, plus the special materials from another world...

The second hypermutation surgery has been successfully completed, proving the success of the hypermutation surgery.

Mebius had originally planned to have his third super-transformation surgery done in the next couple of days, but he never expected to have such an unexpected result.

Since we can't get meat from this evil god, we'll have to get it from the shopkeeper.

After all, the other party had just obtained such a large piece of snake meat, while Mebius only needed a small portion.

Möbius's gaze fell on Chen Luo, who was talking to Wendy.

"Hey Luo, can we talk about something?" Wendy said to Chen Luo.

"Just say what's on your mind, we're friends."

"If we're friends, can you please stop deliberately spamming me with commissions? I'll bring you a guest in a couple of days; it'll be easier to spam commissions on him. Can you leave me alone?" Wendy sighed.

Venti had originally planned to bring the other person today, which is why she was late. However, while preparing to visit the other person tonight, she suddenly remembered that the other person seemed to be on a mission in Mondstadt.

Chapter 55 [The Oath of Möbius]

Wendy didn't mind Chen Luo accepting her commission; after all, it was a fair trade—she offered her wish, and he offered the wine.

However, deliberately creating fake commissions is wrong on the other party's part.

Occasionally, someone might suddenly shout that they're going to stop you from drinking. Even though you know the other person definitely won't stop, it still scares you.

"Of course, no problem. But don't you really want to drink the wine brewed with the Wind God? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and you won't get another chance like this." Chen Luo had just agreed to the other party's request a second ago, and the next second he was already promoting his wine.

"……don't want."

Wendy just sent him a task, but Chen Luo didn't accept it.

Just kidding, how could someone as useful as Venti be abandoned just for 10 Primogems?

When you're fighting Stormterror in the game, you're using me as a tool.

Now you often feel like you're being used as a tool!

"Alo, it seems that Dr. Mebius is thinking of buying snake meat from you. Snakes buying snake meat, doesn't that sound interesting?" The voice of the Herrscher of Knowledge rang in Chen Luo's ears.

"Want to buy snake meat? Perfect, I'm selling some too. I spent so much of my resources, and all I got was an ingredient that can only be used in the Demon Realm." Chen Luo felt a pang of heartache as he said this.

What Chen Luo failed to reflect on was that the things he used to buy this snake meat were merely a trivial collection and a rough stone worth less than one raw stone.

“Dr. Möbius, right? If you have anything you'd like to discuss, please come with me to the second floor.” Chen Heng suddenly produced two drinks and handed one of them to Möbius.

"Don't worry, it's not alcohol. Dr. Mebius, your alcohol tolerance is quite impressive. I wouldn't dare give you alcohol while we're discussing business."

Seeing Mebius's wary gaze, Chen Luo almost laughed.

“…Okay.” Möbius finally accepted the drink.

Just as Mebius sometimes couldn't refuse invitations to parties with investors, it's quite normal for business deals like this to involve drinking.

Although Mebius always felt this was a bad habit.

After settling his guests in, Chen Luo took Mebius up to the second floor.

After all, the business deal we're going to discuss later is probably quite big.

“After I got drunk yesterday, I sat down at a table on the second floor and started talking.”

"You did come here after getting drunk yesterday. At your insistence, we served you a few drinks, but seeing how drunk you were, we added some special hangover remedies to them."

"Then I didn't do anything rude yesterday, did I?" Möbius asked again.

"Of course not, Dr. Möbius. You just kept putting your arm around my arm, calling me Klein, singing and dancing, and even insisting that I play rock-paper-scissors with you. That's all," Chen Luo said affectionately.

“…” Mebius remained silent.

Mebius was aware of his own drinking habits, but the question was, why did he mistake this boy for Klein?

"Alright, let's not talk about anything else. Since you're willing to pull me upstairs, it means you've figured out my intentions, right? Just name your price. What do you want to share some of the snake meat with me?" Clearly, Dr. Mebius didn't want to have a friendly exchange with Chen Luo on this matter.

Who would want to share their embarrassing moments when they're drunk?

"Huh? So, Miss Mebius, you wanted to buy snake meat, not delete your embarrassing videos? It seems I misunderstood." Chen Luo looked surprised.

"Dark history video?" Mebius felt a sense of foreboding.

"Oh, right, I forgot to mention, this tavern has a video recording function, and it's a full-coverage, no-blind-spot recording function. Your 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' singing was really nice." Chen Luo gave Möbius a thumbs up.

"Please delete that video, thank you."

[Ding! You have a new request!]

“Of course.” Chen Luo nodded and then chose to decline the task.

Are you kidding me? You think you can bribe me with just 15 rough stones?

How could a precious video of the adult version of Mebius singing, dancing, playing drinking games, and even singing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" be deleted just because of 15 Primogems? Chen Luo wouldn't do something so unprofitable.

“But you want to buy snake meat, right? This…” Chen Luo looked troubled.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Well, Miss Mebius, let me be frank with you. Although this tavern is just my talent and I don't have any extra requirements for it, I don't want inter-world trade to disrupt the world's proper destiny."

“I’m willing to pay any price.” Möbius looked directly into Chen Heng’s eyes.

"Any cost?"

“At any cost!” Mebius emphasized again.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

【Oath of Mebius】: Mebius is willing to pay any price to obtain the snake meat in your possession, which can only be used to make snake meat soup except for its function in the Demon Realm of this world.

Reward: 500 Primogems + Special Reward (Guaranteed to contain an item or skill related to Möbius)

Difficulty: 3 stars

"..." Chen Luo fell silent.

Chen Luo remained silent because Mebius's asking price was too high.

It's clear that Mebius is determined to get his hands on this useless snake meat.

If Mebius knew that this lousy meat was just like ordinary snake meat outside of the Demon Realm, would he come after me and fight me to the death?

“But Dr. Mebius, I must tell you in advance that, due to the different rules between worlds, the flesh of these evil gods may be useless in your world.”

“That’s not something you should worry about. And I’ve already made preparations for that.” Möbius shook his head.

Upon hearing what Mebius said, Chen Luo immediately pulled out the one-meter-long tail and cut off about a pound of snake meat from it.

"Then this is yours." Chen Luo packed it up in the tavern's complimentary food container and placed it beside him, but did not immediately give it to Mebius.

"So what do you want? Money, power, knowledge, or... me?" Möbius asked, staring at Chen Luo.

Mebius is quite aware of his own appearance and physique.

As for Möbius's statement, the body is merely a shackle on the spirit.

Although Klein didn't think so, she was currently on the first floor.

"Okay, let's shake hands then." Chen Luo extended his right hand.

"Huh?" For a moment, Mebius thought there was something wrong with his ears.

"That's right, you heard me correctly, it's just a handshake." Chen Luo gave a friendly smile.

Now quickly increase your favorability with them and see if you can get a discount when buying skills from them later.

Chen Luo figured it out: in the friends and family sections, the higher the favorability rating, the greater the discount.

Yesterday, I was so focused on taking advantage of Mebius that I forgot to shake his hand.

That was a terrible mistake!

Chapter 56 [The Chosen One] - Möbius

Even after coming down from the second floor, Mebius was still looking at Chen Luo strangely.

"This person is really strange."

I don't want gold, I don't want wealth, I don't want knowledge, I don't want power, and I don't even want beautiful women.
