Chapter 24 - Chapter 24

Of course, it would be even better if there was a clean little cat nearby.

That slender waist, hehe… [Can't you degenerate a little slower?!]

Looking at the guy who was clearly planning to head straight to the capitalist den to rot away at various parties, even though it knew Luo Su was degenerating quickly, the prompter was still shocked after witnessing this scene.

This scoundrel was obviously planning to convert Raiden Ryoma's aid into gold, then use the gold to buy a big house, and then attend various parties until the funds ran out or his life ended.

"?"

Luo Su shot back a question mark.

"No, why would I stay in Siberia to freeze if I got rich?"

Sound reasoning.

The prompter fell silent.

But even though it made sense, it looked too degenerate!

Other people's inherent skill is a will of steel, but your inherent skill must be a will of tofu, and soft tofu at that!!!

This won't do.

I need to try and temper the host's character.

The prompter felt a sudden sense of mission.

[Ding, issuing task—]

Before the task bar could even refresh, Luo Su X'd it out.

"You wouldn't think a single task reward could change my mind about enjoying myself, would you?"

Luo Su waved a wad of cash, sneering.

He turned back and continued to answer Hui Hui's question.

"As for Naruto... because your magic devices are being made too slowly, he got tired from not having anyone to switch with and is sleeping."

This was undoubtedly an unfounded accusation.

However, with a box of cash, Hui Hui instantly accepted this error, bowing to Luo Su's avatar in the Chat Group.

The boss is never wrong.

Therefore, the mistake must be her own!

"Yes, Boss, I will urge my dad and Uncle Youyou!"

"As for Mei..."

When Raiden Mei was mentioned, Luo Su's gaze drifted.

"My surname is Raiden."

At ME Corp, the eldest daughter of the Raiden Family looked at the red packet in the private chat, her expression so complex that even a pie chart would struggle to quantify it.

A deathly silence spread through the group.

Even Valon and Hui Hui, who were in Another World, laughed dryly.

The group's revelry was being paid for by Master Luo.

This was quite awkward.

"Uh... by the way, how have you been since you went back?"

Luo Su lightly coughed and began to inquire about her well-being.

At times like this, it was best not to discuss how to lavishly spend Master Luo's money.

"Hmm, thanks to your help, Chang Kong City is already safe."

"Father also told me some things he hadn't told me before."

Raiden Mei's expression was a little wistful.

Only now did she understand what kind of world she was in.

"Father said he wants to talk to you."

Oh.

Looking for me to consult? That would be extra.

Luo Su thought, but in the chat bar, he typed, "Hmm, I understand."

He was all about being two-faced.

Because Raiden Mei was present, it wasn't convenient to discuss with the group members how to enjoy a corrupt life next, so Luo Su had to hastily go offline.

Perhaps because he was in a good mood, the scenery outside the window seemed much better.

It was time to sunbathe.

Luo Su moved a lounge chair from the side and then, like an old man, lay down directly.

While enjoying the sun, he half-closed his eyes, admiring the scenery.

Although Ursus was very cold, the scenery was truly breathtaking.

Through the window, one could see the white snow outside, the silver coniferous forest, and the large banner of the Reunion Movement.

Wait.

The banner of the Reunion Movement?!!

Luo Su froze.

No, why are you here again?

Chapter 27: Is there a possibility, I mean a possibility, that I am flipping you off?

Are these guys that good at eating?

Luo Su's first thought was provisions.

Because he felt that his impression on the Reunion Movement's side might also be that of an ambitious provision merchant.

But soon, he reacted.

The Reunion Movement weren't pigs; how could they consume all their supplies in just a few days?

What's going on?

[This blame falls on your head]

The prompter provided an answer.

[Oh, they got food from you, and naturally, such things will attract the attention of the black snakes.]

[They were surprised that such a powerful organization existed in their country, so they naturally wanted to test you.]

[For example, turning some dead soldiers into Infected, then assaulting the Reunion Movement's outpost, and then self-destructing—this would directly accelerate the infection process of all Reunion Movement members.]

[Speaking of which, the Reunion Movement is quite tragic; one squad of their few uninfected members—the Shieldguards—got infected.]

"Forcing Talulah to seek a solution from me."

"Then, through the solution, determine which faction I belong to?"

[Yes, on this land, powerful factions generally have means to curb Oripathy, and they all have their own styles.]

[If you are judged to be a member of a powerful faction, it will try to negotiate with you. If you are judged to be a weak faction, then that old snake won't be so easy to deal with. That guy can indirectly control the Ursus Third Army Group—that's a war machine that can directly turn a nation into ruins.]

"What a malicious old dog."

Luo Su gave a concise evaluation.

However, speaking of methods to suppress Oripathy... Luo Su didn't know when a card appeared in his hand. The card was similar to the previous Millennium Kill card, but without the coating.

Oripathy Inhibitor Factory

Facility Type: Medical

Originium, a blessing from prehistoric civilization, and also a curse from prehistoric civilization.

This land prospers because of Originium, and also falls into suffering because of Originium.

Suppress this tide, or stand by and watch.

This power is in your hands.

Usage: Tear open the card on a vacant lot with electricity and water.

Production Method: Dispatch two hundred employees to reside within and provide sufficient Originium.

Note: You provide the Originium for manufacturing inhibitors; don't expect to fleece me.

"I never thought I'd have to use this, did I?"

Luo Su sighed, his expression as if he had a toothache.

He had wanted to take this card to a habitable place, then open a factory there and become a pharmaceutical giant.

As a result, he had to use it here.

[Ah... What are you going to do?]

The prompter seemed a little astonished.

"Reunion Movement members are suffering because of me, so I will naturally be responsible for providing them with medical resources."

"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen such a responsible man?"

Luo Su snorted coldly and said.

[...You actually have such a sense of responsibility?]

The prompter was shocked.

Luo Su: "..."

"No, can't I just be kind?"

Master Luo snorted coldly, then ascended to the moral high ground, pointing fingers at the prompter.

"You should know, the nature of man at birth is inherently good, similar, but practice makes them distant..."

[Speak human! If you were a good person, you wouldn't have been matched with me!]

Luo Su: "..."

This guy seemed to have exposed something quite significant.

Then, he coughed.

He began to re-state his reasons.

"Actually, both Victoria and Ursus are suitable locations for building an Oripathy Inhibitor Factory, as both are rich in Originium."

"Ursus is my home ground; in a country similar to Tsarist Russia, a noble title allows for too many things. Everyone is a lawless madman, and I happen to be one of the nobles."

"The advantage of building a factory in Victoria is that they have a very developed Originium industry and it's widely used across all social strata, which means Victoria has more susceptible groups than Ursus."

"Unlike the poor wretches in Ursus whose blood has been drained by nobles, the common citizens of Victoria still have some savings. If the Oripathy Inhibitor is priced low, it will sell very well."

"Both sides have their pros and cons, and building a factory on either side doesn't affect my ability to visit clubs in Victoria. I lean towards Victoria mainly because I owe Grand Duke Baikal a sum of money and want to default and run away."

Luo Su candidly stated his calculations.

He didn't feel bad about the mine anyway; its total output was only enough to pay off the debt.

Even the ore dug by Naruto could be packaged and taken to Victoria via red packets.

[Since you want to default, why did you suddenly think of building a factory here?]

The prompter was also confused by Luo Su's thoughts.
