Their commission was suspicious.

"Then let's give her a VIP package. Meow." Chen Luo reached out and pressed his hand directly against Li Sushang's forehead, and immediately a large number of silk threads wrapped around Li Sushang.

Seeing this, Karen immediately released Li Sushang, and after Karen released her, Li Sushang was instantly tied up like a dumpling.

And for some unknown reason, after Li Sushang was completely enveloped, the bottom of her giant cocoon suddenly levitated. It was as if an invisible hand had reversed Li Sushang's position, causing the cocoon to hang upside down from the ceiling.

"Huh? Why is he hanging upside down?"

"Do you know what a Hanged Man is? Meow," Chen Luo said.

"don't know."

“That’s right, I don’t understand either. It just feels more impressive this way. And I gave her a larger portion, so it should take a while to finish. Meow,” Chen Luo said.

Since it's a treatment, Chen Luo will definitely cure her.

Li Sushang needs treatment both physically and mentally.

Therefore, the dosage required for treatment is somewhat large.

So much so that Chen Luo was considering whether to kill her once and then resurrect her.

From a purely rational perspective, this would certainly be more convenient, but from an emotional perspective, killing someone when it's not necessary is indeed very unsettling.

"Luckily you met me, and you met me today, otherwise you might really have died. Meow." Chen Luo said as he took out the silver soul lamp that he had just put in the doll collection.

The transformation from a cocoon to a butterfly does have an effect on the mind, but not as strong as on the body.

To help Li Sushang recover quickly, we need to use Soul Fire.

Thinking about it carefully, Soulfire and breaking out of the cocoon to become a butterfly seem to be a perfect match.

Chen Luo gently shook the lantern, and the flame inside flickered. Then, a flame floated out of the lantern and drifted toward the cocoon where Li Sushang was hanging upside down.

Li Sushang was really lucky.

"What is this?" Otto asked curiously.

Curiosity is human nature, and it is also an excellent quality that scientists should possess.

Otto, who is currently trying to reintegrate into the scientific profession, naturally feels curious when he encounters unfamiliar things.

"A lantern that can warm the depths of others' hearts, can you feel it? Meow," Chen Luo asked.

“I felt it,” Otto nodded.

When Otto saw this lantern, he felt as if he were seeing Karen.

However, since Karen was right next to him, Otto wasn't really indulging in the feeling.

“But the light of this lantern is fueled by the suffering of sinners’ souls. Right now, this lantern holds the souls of two sinners who have been convicted of crimes for 500 years. Do you want to go in and experience it for yourself, and see if you belong to the sinners? Meow.” Chen Luo said, holding the lantern.

“This…is that really necessary?” Otto shook his head and then moved away from the lantern.

Otto himself is not good at evaluating his own merits and demerits, but it's best to stay away from such things.

"Seeing Li Sushang reminds me of something else. Meow." Chen Luo looked up at Li Sushang and murmured.

Chen Luo wondered, if the souls of the seven disciples of Taixu were all thrown into this soul lamp, how many of them would suffer?

"Oh, right. Meow." Chen Luo turned to look at Otto.

"What are you planning to do now?" Otto felt a sense of unease.

"Let's sign a contract. Meow." Chen Luo took out the contract book.

"Huh? What kind of contract?"

"To prevent you, the only male in our group of three, from doing anything inappropriate to these two delicate women, you are not allowed to come within three steps of Karen during this trip, except for meals, transportation, and other necessary matters. Meow," Chen Luo said.

"Are you serious?" Otto's voice was distorted.

You're telling me these two girls are weak women?

Either of these two could easily beat up my Soul Steel body.

"Yes, Otto, as you know, Hua and I have been friends for 5 years, meow..."

“You’re only 17,” Otto emphasized.

"In short, Hua and I have a very good relationship, you can't deny that, right? Meow." Chen Luo glanced at Xiao Shi.

"I can't deny it." Otto nodded helplessly.

Even if Otto knew that Chen Luo was going to cause trouble, there was no way to deny that it was true.

"The moment I saw Li Sushang today, I thought of the Seven Disciples of Taixu. The moment I thought of the Seven Disciples of Taixu, I thought of the Crimson Kite Immortal. And the moment I thought of the Crimson Kite Immortal, I thought of [Crimson Kite Immortal, I'm not lying] Meow..."

“No way, isn’t that something that will happen in the future? I haven’t done it yet!” Otto argued.

“Yes, it’s because you haven’t done it yet that there’s only a three-step interval. Otherwise, your ashes would have been scattered by now. Meow.” Chen Luo whispered.

“Besides, it’s only three steps. One step is about half a meter, so three steps is only one and a half meters. Why are you so close to Karen? Meow.” Chen Luo continued to ask.

"This……"

Don't you know why I want to be so close to Karen?

Two steps.

"Deal. Meow."

"..." Otto suspected that Chen Luo originally wanted him to be two steps away from Karen, but Otto had no evidence.

To achieve the best, one must aim for the middle; to achieve the middle, one must aim for the worst.

Fortunately, it was only two steps, about a meter.

Otto couldn't possibly stick to Kallen forever, could he?

"You can fit a person between two steps. Meow." Chen Luo sighed, his tone pointed.

"Hmm?" Yae Sakura's ears twitched.

“…” Otto suspected that Chen Luo was plotting against him.

But Chen Luo felt that he hadn't done anything wrong. After all, the distance between two steps was only about a meter. Why would you stand so close to someone if you had nothing better to do?

After watching Otto sign the contract, Chen Luo pushed open the door of the bar.

"By the way, what about Li Sushang? Meow." Chen Luo asked.

Although it's our first meeting, I still need to show some concern for them.

"Don't worry, I've already informed Rita. When will you break free of this cocoon?"

"At most half an hour. The opponent's physical injuries are easy to heal, and although their mental state is a weakness in the process of emerging from the cocoon, they have the Soul Fire to replenish it, so at most half an hour. Meow," Chen Luo said.

"Understood." Otto nodded and typed a few words on the communicator.

"Let's go, let's go, Karen must be getting impatient." Otto urged after informing Rita.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Like someone's chasing you? Meow." Chen Luo asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Your Excellency, are you there? Lunch break is over, it's time to get back to work." Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"!!!" Otto was startled.

He then quickly pushed Karen into the bar, and closed the door just as he was about to enter.

Seeing this, Yae Sakura blocked the door frame, punched Otto, and knocked him into the bar. She then went inside herself before closing the bar door.

Little knowledge?

Xiao Shi immediately went invisible!

Although Xiao Shi didn't know why he had to hide.

"Your Grace, I'm coming in." With the sound of the handle turning, a white-haired woman walked in.

"Huh? Lord Chen Luo? What are you doing here? Where is the bishop?" Amber was taken aback when she walked in and saw only Chen Luo.

“Otto, he…”

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"...He just went on a trip to another world through a bar. What, didn't he tell you about it? Meow."

Although Chen Luo really wanted to sell Otto, Otto was too smart and knew that he had left a request before leaving for Chen Luo to cover his retreat.

[Ding! Mission complete]

"No..." Amber looked at the stack of office documents in her hand and suddenly felt a headache coming on.

How dare Otto?

Of course, Amber was also quite curious as to why Chen Luo meowed. But that wasn't the point right now.

"Are you alright now?" Amber suddenly looked up at Chen Luo.

"Ah, me? I'm fine. Meow." Chen Luo was momentarily confused about what Amber was up to.

“I am also aware of your deal with Bishop Otto. Since the bishop is not here, would you like to familiarize yourself with the documents that the Destiny Headquarters needs to process in advance?” Amber asked.

Amber, experimental subject A303, is in a sense Theresa's sister, and also a clone of Kallen.

Current secretary to Otto Apocalypse.

"Huh? No way? You're going to find Otto. Meow."

“But His Holiness the Bishop is not here now. And wasn’t it you who sent His Holiness on that trip?”

"...Then I'll bring Theresa over to you. Can you let Theresa do your office? Meow."

"This……"

“Great, it’s decided then. I’m really not familiar with office stuff, I’ll go get Theresa for you right now. Meow.” Chen Luo clasped his hands in a fist salute to Amber and immediately prepared to slip away.

"Wait, Lord Chen Luo, what's going on with this cocoon?"

"Oh, this is Li Sushang. She's receiving treatment right now and it'll be over in half an hour. Otto said he's already notified Rita to clean up the mess. Since you're here, you can keep an eye on things too. Meow." After Chen Luo finished speaking, he teleported back to the bar using the teleportation anchor point, not giving Amber a chance to speak at all.

"...Theresa, can she really handle official business?" Amber muttered to herself, somewhat uncertainly.

Amber and Theresa were inseparable friends when they were children.

When Otto first created these clones, he wanted A310 to kill A303 to prove his ability, but A310 did not kill him.

This made Otto feel that A310 had a resemblance to Karen, which is why he adopted her as his granddaughter.

Therefore, it's quite normal that A303 and A310 have a good relationship.

However, as they took on different concurrent positions later on, their communication became less and less frequent.

"Theresa, come to the bar quickly. Oh, and bring Himeko along too. Meow." Chen Luo said to Theresa through the communicator.

Bring your external brain along with you.

"Why don't you three go up to the second floor and hide for a bit?" Chen Luo said.

“I think it’s a good idea,” Otto nodded.

"Why are you hiding?" Karen asked, somewhat puzzled.

"There are three kinds of dumplings prepared on the second floor, go and eat them. Meow." Chen Luo said, pointing to the second floor.

"Tricolor dumplings?! Here I come!" Karen ran straight to the second floor after hearing this.

“Theresa! Your grandfather is dying!” Chen Luo wrote in a message to Theresa.

Chapter 804 Walnut: Chen Luo, it's you who's stealing our business from the Rebirth Hall?

"What? Grandpa is sick and wants to see me one last time? How is that possible?" Theresa looked incredulous.

Himeko, who was following beside her, looked even more incredulous.

"If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself. Meow." Chen Luo said as he pushed open the bar door.

“Amber.” Theresa looked up and saw Amber.

"Lady Theresa, you've arrived."

“Just call me Theresa, don’t be so formal. Where’s Grandpa?” Theresa asked as she left the bar and walked into the office in front of her.

“His Excellency the Bishop? He’s gone,” Amber said.
