Their commission was suspicious.

Shen He was a little confused after hearing Chen Luo's words, but he still trusted Chen Luo quite a bit, so he closed his eyes and opened them after 10 seconds.

"Is your fishing rod a special prop?" Shen He quickly realized something was wrong with him.

As a cultivator, controlling one's emotions is very important, especially since Shen He himself is rather aloof, and it is rare for him to express a strong destructive urge towards something.

"Hmm, a special prop. In short, look less at this fishing rod and more at me. Ah, I didn't mean you have to stare into my eyes the whole time. Whatever makes you happy."

Shen He is quite straightforward. Chen Luo asked Shen He to stare at him, and Shen He stared back at him, making Chen Luo feel a little uncomfortable.

"Want to try this river? Maybe it will strengthen the Eye of God," Chen Luo said, pointing to the river in front of him.

"Hmm." Shen He nodded and then quite directly threw his Eye of God into the river.

Simple, quick, and without hesitation.

When Chen Luo emerged from the river again, he already had three Eyes of God in his hands.

All three Eyes of God remained intact, without any sense of impending disappearance.

Just as Chen Luo had predicted, the Eye of God could indeed reach the level of an S-grade item after being enhanced twice.

Just like this golden eye of God.

"Hmm...maybe you even have the potential to become the Ice God." Chen Luo complained about this while tossing the golden Ice God's Eye back to Shen He.

In short, the more Chen Luo profited from the River God's abilities, the more he felt that the River God's abilities were too outrageous.

Based solely on common sense, the Ice God's Heart is an S-rank talent, and Chen Luo actually possesses an Ice-type Ice God's Heart.

The golden Eye of God that Shen He is currently holding is also an S-rank item.

An S-rank item is equal to an S-rank item.

Just like the Ice God's Eye and Ice God's Heart, the Ice God's Eye can also use ice-type power, so Shenhe is equivalent to the Ice God.

Chen Luo finally understood what it meant to have great responsibility with great power.

Of course, Chen Luo would never allow anyone to kidnap him. Chen Luo simply tries his best not to use his River God power to help those who might endanger the world.

In a sense, if Chen Luo wanted to, he could plunge the entire continent of Teyvat into a shadow in just 10 minutes—a shadow created by their own people.

The River God's abilities are truly outrageous.

It's only an S-rank item now, but it might even reach SS-rank or SSS-rank in the future. It truly lives up to its reputation as the officially designated strongest support item.

“This is truly outrageous. However, although I have raised the upper limit of your Divine Eye, you still need to work hard to fill the gap in between,” Chen Luo said to Shen He.

The idea of ​​challenging the gods of one's own pantheon right after acquiring a golden Eye of God is best left as a dream.

Chen Luo couldn't do this kind of thing.

To put it bluntly, the Eye of God is just an item. In fact, Chen Luo's silver-level Eye of Element can be said to have reached the limit of an S-level item, just one step away from becoming an SS-level item. But even so, Chen Luo is not confident that he can use any single element in the Eye of Element to deal with that kind of god.

Even if Chen Luo were to use only the Eye of the Elements, all the elements combined would be barely enough to defeat a god.

There is a reason why deities are called deities.

Even S-rank items aren't omnipotent, not to mention that even a golden Eye of God might not be as strong as a normal Eye of the Elements.

It's not that Chen Luo's River God ability is weak, but rather that the limit of the Eye of God is probably just around the corner.

Are a +10 wooden stick and a +10 magic sword Apophis the same?

"Hmm? But doesn't the sign say that if a golden item appears, the golden item belongs to you, and the silver item belongs to me?" Shen He frowned, looking at the sign next to Chen Luo, then at the golden God's Eye and the original God's Eye in his hand, as well as the silver God's Eye that Chen Luo had left behind.

“Except for the Eye of God,” Chen Luo said after tossing the silver Eye of God into his backpack.

"The Eye of God is bound to its owner. Although it's not impossible to steal it through furniture mastery, the key issue is that it's not convenient to use. In addition, I have the more powerful Eye of the Elements, so the Golden Eye of God is of little help to me, and can only be used for collection."

Chen Luo's Eye of the Elements contains all seven elements of the Teyvat continent.

This means that for Chen Luo, all the Eyes of God series in Teyvat are only useful for gaining divine power and for collecting.

"Besides, we're practically family, so take it. I'm not interested in the Eye of God. But there's one thing I need to warn you: never use this golden Eye of God for evil purposes, although you're unlikely to do such a thing anyway," Chen Luo casually instructed Shen He.

Honestly, Chen Luo would be happier if Shen He were to commit evil deeds.

Although Chen Luo's efforts reduced the number of red ropes on the other party and seemed to increase the amount of human emotions he possessed, the four words "doing evil" still had nothing to do with Shen He.

"Okay, thank you." Shen He didn't hesitate to put the Golden Eye of God into his pocket and thanked Chen Luo.

For Shen He, social etiquette was truly incomprehensible. If someone gave it to him and he wanted it too, then he would simply accept it.

After all, Chen Luo had mentioned to him more than once that while force could not solve problems, it could resolve the issue of who raised them.

Therefore, improving military strength is also an important matter.

At least I can lend a helping hand to others when they need it, like Chen Luo.

"If you need that golden eye of God, remember to tell me," Shen He said to Chen Luo before leaving the river.

"I should be the one saying that. If you need that silver Eye of God, remember to tell me," Chen Luo said, both amused and exasperated.

"Mm." Shen He nodded.

"But can I sit next to you?" Shen He asked Chen Luo after hesitating for a moment.

“Of course. Almost all the bar patrons come here, so let’s try to talk to them.” Chen Luo took a small stool from his backpack, placed it next to himself, and said to Shen He.

Shen He is a quiet person most of the time and does not bother Chen Luo when he is fishing.

At least he's the kind of "roommate" you dream of when you just want to sit quietly.

Little knowledge?

Xiao Shi is no good; she's too restless and not suited for quiet fishing.

Chapter 596 Yukari Yakumo's Contract of Indenture

"No way, Chen Luo, this is really hurting me. You clearly agreed to only give me the silver one. Isn't this what you call double standards?" After Shen He sat down next to Chen Luo, Yakumo Yukari slowly floated over and said to Chen Luo in a low voice.

"Where did I apply double standards? Don't slander me."

"I also want Yuyuko's golden fan," Yukari Yakumo said with a sigh.

"...Whether you want it or not, you know it in your heart," Chen Luo said coldly.

You don't even send a request, yet you want a fan?

I waited for quite a while, even though it was a bit of a hassle.

"Uh, cough cough, never mind, let's discuss the contract issue now." Yukari Yakumo decisively changed the subject.

"What's wrong with the contract? Have you thought about what you can give me?" After putting away the Book of Friends, Chen Luo asked Yakumo Yukari, while taking out the contract again.

"I haven't decided yet." Yukari Yakumo shook her head.

"...So after thinking about it for so long, what did you finally come up with?" Chen Luo asked, somewhat puzzled.

“Actually, I didn’t think about it for that long. I actually thought about it for a while before I came to find you, but it seems you’ve disappeared,” Yukari Yakumo said.

You mean it's my fault?

"No, how could I blame you? It's just this contract... I wanted to ask, the gold and silver versions of the item you summoned should be able to exist permanently, right?"

"Of course." Chen Luo nodded.

"Then you shouldn't actively make them disappear, right?"

"..."

"As expected, I knew it! You little brat, you were trying to trick me!" Yukari Yakumo stood up instantly.

"No, don't slander me! I just didn't tell you," Chen Luo quickly denied.

But after a long while, Yukari Yakumo finally came to her senses, didn't she?

This is quite normal, since the white-haired dwarf didn't appear to be in a situation where there were always three people, which clearly shows that the summoned items are not undispellable.

At the time, Yukari Yakumo was simply overwhelmed by the golden Gensokyo and didn't realize what was happening. Now that she's calmed down and calmed down for a while, it's perfectly normal that she can see it now. However, Chen Luo never intended to hide it from Yukari Yakumo.

Using this to threaten Yukari Yakumo?

Forget it, would you be attracted to a young and beautiful old woman who is of unknown age and could be your ancestor?

Okay, yes, it can.

Of course, that's not the problem.

"Wouldn't it be better to just write this clause into the contract? Besides, you haven't said what you can give me yet, have you? Isn't it normal for everyone to rely on their own abilities before the transaction is completed?" Chen Luo said matter-of-factly.

Chen Luo did accept Yakumo Yukari's request, but Yakumo Yukari also didn't give Chen Luo anything.

Even if Chen Luo summons the Golden Gensokyo and then cancels it, that would still count as completing the mission, since the Golden Gensokyo has appeared, right?

Chen Luo can indeed help others fulfill their wishes for free, but only for the simpler ones.

Tasks like those of Yakumo Yukari, which sound incredibly difficult, naturally require additional compensation.

Besides, it's normal for five-star missions to have some extra rewards, right?

“That makes sense.” Chen Luo’s behavior was quite normal, to the point that even Yukari Yakumo thought it was reasonable.

"Haven't you come up with a reward that will impress me yet?"

"No, I admit defeat. Tell me, what do you want?" Yukari Yakumo said, sounding somewhat resigned.

If you encounter a situation during a transaction where you urgently need something but the other party doesn't offer any conditions, then you're in for a lot of trouble.

For example, right now.

"I don't want much... I just need you to obey me."

"Huh?! What do you want? I'm telling you, I considered you a friend, but you..."

"Shut up, don't talk nonsense." Chen Luo said angrily when he saw that other people were looking in their direction because of Yakumo Yukari's overly excited voice.

"Who's lusting after your body? I just want you to prioritize my orders above all else when it comes to anything involving bars or the other world. Even in Gensokyo, you must take my opinions very seriously."

"And what I give in return is to help you get a golden illusion."

“We cannot dispel the Golden Gensokyo,” Yukari Yakumo added.

"So you've agreed to my conditions?" Chen Luo smiled as he looked at Yakumo Yukari, who was adding to the list.

I'm not afraid of getting a small discount, I'm just afraid of the vendor saying "yes".

If the other party interrupts, it means they intend to make a move.

"What can I do? I'm desperate too." Yukari Yakumo sighed helplessly.

Gensokyo can be considered Yakumo Yukari's only weakness.

"I've also thought about exploring different worlds through my own efforts to gain greater power and improve the situation in Gensokyo."

Sometimes, even if you can't get anything useful from another world, just understanding their unique system can open another door for you.

Without a reference point, you'll never know where you've come from.

It's like asking if you're really sure Earth's technology tree hasn't gone astray.

Just like the Mayan civilization, which made extremely brilliant achievements in astronomy, and was also extremely mysterious.

The 2012 doomsday prophecy was widely believed.

The achievements of this civilization in literature cannot be denied, but the achievements of the other side in military force cannot be said to be too great either.

This is because there aren't many iron ore deposits on their territory.

The reason why the opponent developed their technology tree was off track is because they didn't have iron ore.

And the same might be true for Earth.

Sometimes, a single person's flash of inspiration can influence the development of an entire civilization.

Sometimes, a revelation from another world can enlighten Yakumo Yukari, making her even stronger than before.

"However, the gap between worlds was far beyond my imagination. In that world, my abilities were indeed significantly affected."

"Although there is indeed a source in that place that could give me a shortcut, after reading the information you gave me so far, I'm still not sure if I'll have enough courage to go in when I stand in front of that hole."

"After all, not everyone who goes in can come out; it has nothing to do with strength, only luck."

It is precisely because Yukari Yakumo's ability allows her to vaguely sense the enormous creature above her that she is so cautious about the Root.

Compared to a world, even if a yokai's age reaches the length of 8 million years like Eirin Yagokoro's, it is still insignificant.
