Their commission was suspicious.

Seeing the opponent's right leg coming down like a battle axe, Chen Luo sighed, then took out a crowbar... a staff from his backpack and slammed it hard into the opponent's right calf.

The man who saw Chen Luo's actions didn't try to dodge at all; instead, a cold smile appeared on his lips.

You think a mere crowbar can stop my kick?

"clang!"

"Crack!"

A very clear cracking sound rang out, and the opponent's right leg was forced into an abnormally bent position.

"Ah!" The man screamed in agony as he was thrown to the open space in front of the bar, clutching his right leg and screaming in pain.

After seeing the other person fall to the ground, the patrons in the bar stopped paying attention and went about their own business.

How dare someone this incompetent cause trouble in a bar?

incredible.

Seriously... I have absolutely no desire to watch this show.

After the little incident, everyone else started drinking and eating.

One of the rules on the bulletin board states: If someone attacks the manager or causes excessive damage to the bar, the security mode will be disabled.

"Seriously? Are there really people this stupid in the world? Trying to kick a metal object with your legs? You can't possibly win, can you?" Chen Luo slowly walked out of the bar and gently tapped the other person's head with a crowbar.

Chen Luo's crowbar was enhanced in strength and hardness based on Chen Luo's physical strength, power, endurance, melee ability, and all other things unrelated to magicians.

Unfortunately, Chen Luo is capable of doing anything except being a magician.

Therefore, the staff in Chen Luo's hands is really hard.

"Speaking of this crowbar... the staff is really useful."

When you encounter someone you want to kill but can't, a crowbar is the perfect tool.

After all, using heavenly fire as punishment could easily kill someone.

"I really don't understand, how can you be so confident when you're such a noob?" Chen Luo squatted down and looked at the other person in disbelief.

"You're too naive!" When he saw Chen Luo squat down, the man stretched out his index and middle fingers and poked Chen Luo's eyes.

"boom!"

"what!!!"

The man screamed again, this time clutching his two bent fingers that had been smashed.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I hit a little too hard. But it's not entirely my fault, is it? Next time, if you want to hit me, just say so beforehand, otherwise I might hit a little too hard and lose control," Chen Luo said apologetically.

The opponent's speed was indeed quite fast, but the problem was that Chen Luo's dynamic vision was faster than the opponent's.

Moreover, because Chen Luo is a master of both close combat and cold weapons, his body is always in a state of self-defense and counterattack.

Instinctively, Chen Luo used his crowbar staff to break the other person's finger.

"What... what do you want to do? I'm warning you, I'm the son of a minister! I admit you're strong, but if you kill me, you'll be wanted by the empire! You'll be punished no matter how far you go!" Seeing Chen Luo's innocent-looking face as he spoke these terrifying words, the man became somewhat frightened.

"Your crowbar isn't some kind of Imperial Arms, is it?" The man glanced at the crowbar in Chen Luo's hand again.

Logically speaking, that kick I just delivered should have knocked back even a Teigu, let alone steel, instead of breaking my bones.

Therefore, the man could only make this guess.

"Let me go. As long as you don't hurt me and come back to the capital with me, I'll give you money if you want money, power if you want power, and women if you want women. In short, I can get you anything you want."

That is, provided that I don't kill you beforehand.

"Minister? What's that?" Chen Luo was taken aback.

"Never mind, that's not important. Friend, we hit it off right away, how about you give me a stroke of good fortune?" Chen Luo said, stepping on the other man's chest while pointing a crowbar at his throat.

"Gulp." The man swallowed hard, somewhat alarmed.

The man encountered the situation he least wanted to face.

In this barren land, there are people who don't even recognize his father.

What is the biggest fear of a rich second-generation?

What I fear most is that some people don't even know his awesome father.

Therefore, the worst thing for rich kids is to go to those poor and remote places to show off. Although their own background can completely overshadow the other party, the problem is that the other party does not know their background.

This renders background information meaningless.

Moreover, when the other person stepped on his chest and pointed a crowbar directly at him, the man felt a near-fatal sense of crisis.

The other person's foot was like a mountain, pressing down on him and making it impossible for him to struggle.

This also allowed the man to discern the difference in strength between the two.

Seeing that the other party seemed genuinely unaware of the minister, the man hardened his heart and used his Imperial Arm.

Running away is shameful, but it's useful.

Where there is life, there is hope.

I'll wait until I gather an army of 10 and raze this dilapidated tavern to the ground.

Shangri-La!

But to the man's astonishment, his Imperial Arms did not react at all when he used it.

"Hmm? A spatial artifact?" Sensing a spatial fluctuation, Chen Luo looked curiously at the thing on the other person's arm.

"Sorry, um, I probably forgot to mention, spatial abilities are not allowed in this bar."

As Chen Luo spoke, he forcefully pulled the spatial artifact off the other person's wrist.

"This prop... is not bad." After instantly suppressing the special prop's resistance with his furniture mastery, Chen Luo nodded approvingly.

Chen Luo's expertise in furniture allowed him to quickly learn how to use this item.

You can set a marker in a location and then choose to teleport yourself or someone else.

It can teleport over extremely long distances and has a very short cooldown time.

In Chen Luo's view, this was simply a simple teleportation anchor point.

Although its functionality has been greatly reduced, it is still extremely useful for both escaping and ambushing.

However... it was of no use to Chen Luo.

Chen Luo still prefers to insert teleportation anchors.

Although teleportation anchors require Primogems to purchase, the key point is that they can be used across worlds.

In case of any emergency, it's safer to use the teleportation anchor point.

It's a good product, but it's not suitable for Chen Luo.

"Here you go." After analyzing the structure of this thing using his Herrscher of Reason abilities, Chen Luo simply tossed it to the other person's side.

It's not that Chen Luo doesn't want this thing, the key is that he's in a bar right now, and so many customers are watching him.

Even if the guest is unwelcome, killing him or taking away something he cherishes will inevitably leave a slightly bad impression.

Moreover, Chen Luo had a strange premonition that this item was destined to be his and would eventually fall into his hands.

So there's no rush now.

"Fine, I won't make things difficult for you. All guests are guests, and although this time you've been treated like an unwelcome guest, it's still fate's arrangement. I'll let you live this time, but don't come back next time." Chen Luo patted the other person's face with the crowbar, then kicked him in the waist.

After being hit so hard, the opponent was kicked like a broken sack towards the door that had been opened but not closed, and flew straight out.

Chen Luo slowly walked towards the gate, and then stepped into this strange world.

Once Chen Luo left the bar, the invincible effect he had gained from the bar naturally disappeared.

"Hmm, let's try it out." Looking at this strange world that he had no idea where he was, Chen Luo opened his friends list with great interest.

And finally, the first friend appeared in the "Friends" (Tools) section.

“Sila? Hmm, that name sounds familiar…”

And Mr. Sheila, the "tool man," also got a 7% discount.

Since the discount was forcibly increased, barring any unforeseen circumstances, it will likely only ever be 7% off for the rest of my life.

"Fine, let me try the knife!" Chen Luo said, striking his right hand with the crowbar.

"Ah!" Sheila screamed in agony as she struggled to her feet.

Although the opponent's injuries were mostly fractures, his body was really strong. For him, fractures were just commonplace. Even after being hit with a fracture, he still had fighting ability.

But as soon as he stood up, he suddenly felt a sharp pain, and at the same time, his right hand was hit by an attack of unknown origin, almost fracturing it.

Sheila was quite baffled by this.

"Hmm, the effect is not bad. Forget it, we can't try again. The people we found this time don't seem very capable."

There is a limit to the damage transfer that can be performed by a friend. The maximum damage transfer limit for a single instance is determined by the discount you receive from the other party and the strength of the other party.

When the damage exceeds the limit, the remaining damage, curse, and attack will remain on Chen Luo.

Secondly, there is also a limit to the total damage, which is determined entirely by the discount rate.

In other words, the higher the discount, the more useful this friend is.

Although this Sheila doesn't sound like a good person and is quite arrogant, while he is strong, he is only of average strength.

He couldn't even defeat a crow when fighting alone.

It can only be said that Honkai energy is truly omnipotent.

Therefore, you can't play with Sheila too much. If you mess it up and it becomes fatal, you won't be able to transfer it.

Good steel should be used where it's most needed.

Good friends should be used on [fatal wounds].

"Damn white-haired guy!" a furious voice rang out.

Chen Luo turned his head and saw the tiny Remilia carrying a bar chair toward the bar entrance.

"Damn it, how dare you interrupt my game! It's all your fault, I still couldn't beat it! If you hadn't suddenly started making noise, how could I possibly have failed with my skills?"

"Chen Luo, don't stop me! Release this damn seal for me! I'll show him what cruelty is!" Remilia, dragging a chair taller than herself, furiously smashed the invisible wall at the bar's entrance.

From what the other person said, Chen Luo could roughly tell that Remilia had lost the bullet hell game again.

"I always feel like it's your own fault for being bad, not the other person's fault," Chen Luo muttered to himself.

"What did you say! Who's bad?" Remilia jumped up and tapped Chen Luo's knee.

It was only because Chen Luo's back half was still in the bar that, although Remilia could hit him, it didn't hurt at all.

“It’s nothing, it’s all his fault,” Chen Luo said immediately, pointing at Sheila.

"Alright, I've removed the barrier. You can come now, just don't kill him." Chen Luo said as he removed the invisible barrier in front of Remilia.

"You little brat! Do you even know how many ways there are to write the word 'death'?" Remilia, carrying a stool in her left hand and suddenly wielding a massive, blood-red spear in her right, grinned menacingly at the man.

"People will die! Don't use Gungnir!" Chen Luo quickly stopped her when he saw the gun in Remilia's hand.

"!!!"

"Shangri-La!" Sensing an extremely deadly danger, the man immediately used his own tool to teleport after discovering that his Imperial Arms was ready to be used.

"Heh, did you think you could escape the attack by running away?" Remilia said with a sneer.

"Remi, calm down, calm down. You don't need to go through the trials anymore. I'll accept your wish, really." Seeing that he had finally found a scapegoat and was about to be killed, Chen Luo quickly tried to persuade Remilia.

"Hmph, I'll give you that much face." Remilia snorted and walked back into the bar.

Remilia is determined to keep fighting that damn game, even though Chen Luo promised to grant her wish. Remilia can't swallow her anger.

Why can't I pass the level?

"Phew." Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief.

If you don't court death, you really won't die.

Chen Luo turned his head to look at the spatial traces left behind after the other person disappeared, walked back to the bar, and then closed the door.

Chen Luo didn't even bother to place a teleportation anchor point. As long as he was in the bar, he could summon the other person to his side using the Book of Friends' abilities.
