Terra Martial God and Merit System

"Xiao Luo, are you okay?"

"Xiao Luo, are you hurt?"

"Xiao Luo..."

Luo Chen felt as if he was out of this world.

Human sorrows and joys are not interlinked, I just think they are noisy.

"I'm fine." Luo Chen tried to calm down. He took a deep breath - "I'm fine, fine..."

The past has passed.

Luo Chen's merits have been taken away. It is useless to be sad now.

It was not until then that the hunters in the village noticed the overly quiet tents nearby.

When they opened the tent, they were immediately shocked by the corpse inside.

"Dead people! So many dead people!"

"where?"

The team, which was originally full of fighting spirit, suddenly became chaotic.

"Hiss..." Uncle Peter went in, took a look, and walked out in fear.

Not only the bodies, but the way these people died was so strange. It was as if their throats were slit while they were sleeping.

"Could it be that homeless man who did it?" he thought to himself.

Surtur's identity as a Sarkaz always makes the Ursus people think of many things.

"It's not me." S'Ertel said softly, and she followed.

"Then it could be..."

Everyone couldn't help but shift their attention to Luo Chen in the center.

Luo Chen raised his hands innocently - "Yes, I killed them all."

With a loud bang, everyone started to discuss it fiercely. Some people didn't believe it, while others felt it was possible. But no one completely believed Luo Chen's words.

after all.....

Killing so many gangsters silently. This is too amazing and unimaginable!

"Xiao Luo, you are not lying?" Uncle Peter held Luo Chen's shoulder in surprise.

Although this group of bandits did not actively attack the village, few caravans came because of their presence.

If they were all wiped out...that would be a great thing!

"I found an opportunity and poisoned him..." Luo Chen briefly recounted the incident.

He omitted all mention of his own skills and mainly emphasized that he achieved all this through poisoning.

Although everyone was surprised after hearing this, they all understood.

After all, this is much easier to understand than quietly mapping all the people.

At this time, Little Tony was also rescued, and everyone's face was covered with smiles. In an instant, cheers were heard everywhere.

Except Luo Chen.

The more he tried not to think about meritorious deeds, the more he couldn't help thinking about them.

At this time, the system's light curtain also began to generate various messages -

.......

[You saved a lost child, Merit +30]

[You helped an entire village and improved the surrounding environment. Merit +70]

[The current event has ended, the settlement is as follows——]

[You cleared a group of bandits' stronghold, and gained a total of merits: 1050]

[Current remaining merit: 700]

"Oh, that's not right. I got 1050 merits in total...but why do I feel like it's a bit too much?"

Luo Chen frowned. He remembered that he only paid more than 700 yuan after he drew the tent. How come it has become more than 1,000 yuan now?

He immediately checked the previous messages, but found something unusual——

[Because of you, a gangster died. Merit +150]

"Wait..." After looking at the time carefully, Luo Chen found that this was the time when the gangster boss was shot dead by Uncle Peter.

"Will someone who was not killed by me personally also gain merit?"

"What's the principle?"

As soon as the question popped up, the system gave the answer——

【cause and effect】

"I understand. Peter shot the arrow because I went to the bandit camp. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come and wouldn't have shot that arrow."

"Whether I was there or not, this gangster boss died because of me."

"I see. I see."

Luo Chen felt better.

My merits were not lost. Although my head was robbed, the economic benefits were still added to my head.

“Speaking of which….this summary page is quite interesting.”

"Does it have any special function?"

The system responded——

[All events that generate merit can be accompanied by a 'suffix', the current suffixes are as follows -]

[Seeing injustice: Helping without hesitation when encountering unfriendly things. Merit settlement +10%]

[Hide your merit (low): Within ten days after you complete an activity that earns no more than 1000 merits, no more than five people will know that you did this good deed. Merit settlement +30%]

[Sacrifice yourself: Sacrifice your life to do good deeds. Merit calculation +100%]

.........

“I don’t seem to conform to anything…” Luo Chen took a quick look and realized that the good things he had done were similar to [protecting the weak], [saving the people], and [stabilizing order].

However, the system indicates that it does not meet the suffix determination criteria.

"In the future, you can do good things according to the requirements of these suffixes. You can get some merit for free."

Luo Chen thought.

Now that his merits and virtues had returned, he was in high spirits and no longer depressed.

Luo Chen first ran to the central tent and dragged out the gang leader's safe.

Luo Chen doesn’t know the password, but it doesn’t matter.

He asked Sulter to help him cut it.

The sword flashed, and the flames enveloped the safe. Then it was split in two.

Luo Chen happily received a pile of red gold.

This is hard currency in this continent, Luo Chen feels that if he uses this to help, he can at least earn a few hundred merits.

"The next step is commitment." Luo Chen went to the kitchen, found butter and sugar and started making parfait.

Surtel watched from the side, his eyes full of curiosity.

In his previous life, Luo Chen didn’t like desserts, but he quite liked cooking.

The production process of cold drinks like parfait is actually very simple. Even a novice can make it by following the videos on the Internet.

Luo Chen brought it out quickly.

"Please." Luo Chen put down the glass in his hand.

Sartel grabbed the spoon and scooped a spoonful into his mouth.

The cool touch on the tip of her tongue made her squint slightly. Then the corners of her mouth turned up, revealing a hint of satisfaction and pleasure.

"Not sweet enough, but not bad," commented Surtel.

Contrary to this mediocre evaluation, her hand movements were not slow at all.

The spoon turned deftly in her hand and reached out again.

Surtel's eating manners were elegant and graceful, and every little movement was particularly delicate. If Luo Chen were to describe it...

He felt like a cat.

Luo Chen felt that this scene was indeed worth capturing, but unfortunately he didn't have a camera.

Surtur finished his parfait, and the villagers finished cleaning up the battlefield.

Anything that could be used was swept away by them.

Luo Chen did not stop him, but asked Uncle Peter to remind everyone to be careful not to get hurt.

Everyone returned home happily, and the originally dark and dangerous camp was left with only ruins and corpses.

On the way back, Luo Chen realized that these villagers were actually inspired by Uncle Peter to come here.

"I woke up quite late, and when I got here, you all were gone. But luckily I made it in time." Uncle Peter smiled.

Luo Chen sighed slightly, not knowing what to say.

When he returned to the village, he was praised by other villagers, especially Aunt Fanny, who hugged Luo Chen so hard that he almost couldn't breathe.

In the evening, the villagers held a party in the center of the village. The treasured wine and captured food were used for this party. Accompanied by Ursus folk songs, the atmosphere reached a climax.

Luo Chen did not participate in all this, he just found the village chief and expressed his ideas.

"I want to leave this village."

Chapter 7: Traveling Together

"Leave?" The village chief, who was smoking a local pipe, looked up and looked at Luo Chen with unclear eyes.

Then he sighed, “From the moment you were rescued, I knew you were not a stable person.”

"Now it seems that you will definitely make a career."

"Let's go." The village chief grinned, "I will keep your house forever, no matter when."

"Thank you." Luo Chen nodded slightly and went to find Uncle Peter.

He gave him most of the red gold he found, and then entrusted him to use the money to develop the village.

"This money must be used in the right place." Luo Chen said solemnly.

He believed in Uncle Peter's character, but he still had to warn where necessary.

"Don't worry." Uncle Peter patted his chest, "I won't spend money recklessly."

Luo Chen gave a few more instructions and finally went to find Surtel.

She rested in a room specially vacated by the village chief.

Luo Chen first made a cup of parfait and then knocked on the door.

Pushing open the door, Surtel's somewhat irritated look quickly calmed down because of the parfait in Luo Chen's hand.

She ate without hesitation.

"Sartre."

Luo Chen realized one thing.

If you want to gain merit quickly...one person cannot compare to the cooperation of many people.
