Chapter 316: In order to repay her gratitude, Katarina decided to become a doll"Haha, such an apology is useless." Li Cheng shook his head: "If you want to apologize, you should at least show your sincerity, right?"
"Hmm..." An embarrassed expression instantly appeared on Catalina's face.
As a warrior, her chivalrous code has always been to speak her mind and repay favors.
It is no exaggeration to say that the help given to her by the man in front of her was a life-saving grace.
But how to repay the favor and apologize made her feel troubled.
Would a man who can take out the Tears of the True God at any time be short of supplies and gold Galleons?
In his eyes, these things in my hands are just junk.
and also……
Katarina looked at Lilith Cat again inconspicuously.
As the leader of the city defense army, her perspective on things is naturally different from others.
She clearly felt that the cat floating in the air was the goddess of salvation and law, but for some unknown reasons, she was sealed in the body of a cat.
She had never seen anything like this in the City of Law.
A goddess was actually sealed in the body of a cat!
The most important thing is, this cat, oh no, this goddess seems to enjoy this seal.
What does this mean?
This shows that the man in front of him is definitely a powerful figure, powerful enough to make his goddess satisfy all his demands.
No matter how perverted the request is...
Thinking of this, Catalina broke out in a sweat.
She has a bad habit of always considering the worst of everything. It is said that in the mortal world, this habit is a disease called paranoia.
Now, her paranoia began to set in.
When she looked at Li Cheng, there was a flash of inexplicable fear and dread in her eyes.
Could it be that the apology this man is saying is also about sealing me inside something and making me his plaything?
What would that be?
A dog, a sword, a rag doll, or something scarier?
We don’t want this kind of thing!
But when she thought that she was indeed saved by the other party, she suddenly lost the courage to resist.
Thinking of this, she clenched the hilt of the sword, took two deep breaths, and said seriously: "If you insist on doing this, wait until I come back from the M981 world, okay?"
Li Cheng: ???
Which one do I have to have?
"I know that delaying your request is just a luxury." Catalina clasped her fists and said, "But this matter is too important to me. I cannot sit back and watch my people die at the hands of fear. So, please give me some time."
Li Cheng: ???
No, did I just make any excessive demands?
Why don’t I remember?
Catalina gritted her teeth and said, "In exchange, I am willing to extend the time I can be your doll twice as long. In the process of being your doll, well, I can also meet all your requirements."
Li Cheng: ???
What doll, what are you talking about?
Lilith the Cat also looked at Li Cheng with an unfriendly expression, her eyes slightly narrowed.
Damn it, didn’t Dongxi just arrive in the City of Law?
How come you've already conquered one?
And she even said she wanted to be his doll...
Damn, how did this guy do that? Did he develop a law for scumbags?
Li Cheng also looked at Catalina in confusion: "Miss, what are you talking about? What do you mean by being my doll?"
"Uh..." Katerina frowned seriously and pointed at Lilith: "When you say apologize, don't you mean that I should be like her, take the initiative to get into the sealed doll's body and become your toy?"
Li Cheng: …
Lilith:!!!
“Ahhhhhh!!! Who the hell took the initiative!!! You bastard! I didn’t take the initiative!! I didn’t take the initiative at all!!!” Lilith Maomao held her head.
"What? Is it passive?" Catalina's pupils trembled slightly, and her guess about Li Cheng's identity went to a higher level.
"No? Ahhhhhhh! Li Cheng, don't stop me, I'm going to bite this bitch to death!!!" Lilith howled and was about to rush over.
But Li Cheng grabbed his tail.
"Below head...female?" Catalina was puzzled: "What does below head mean? The head below? But I don't have a head below...or is this the name of the doll you prepared for me?"
"Hmm, a doll with its head down... It's a little hard to accept, but if you can give me some time, it's not a bad idea."
"Uh." Lilith stopped abruptly.
She suddenly felt as if her claws were hitting cotton.
This woman...how come she is so natural?
"Huh..." Li Cheng also raised his eyebrows.
Why does this general of the city defense army seem like a natural idiot...
A thousand-year-old idiot... That's a bit against the will of heaven.
"Ms. Katarina, let's not talk about whether I need you to be my doll." He could only shake his head: "Have you ever considered that you may not be able to come back from the M981 world this time?"
"Hmm... So this is what you are worried about?" Catalina's face tightened.
Indeed, if I died in the M981 world, the promised gratitude and apology would not be fulfilled.
Should I finish the task first before going?
No, that's not possible. What if the world has already been destroyed?
Thinking of this, she reached into the knight's armor, pulled out a crystal and handed it over.
"This is my soul crystal. If I die, my soul will be resurrected in it. I originally planned to put it in the base, but now, I'll leave it with you, sir."
"If I come back alive, I will be your puppet. If I die, you can put my soul anywhere you want."
Lilith the cat was stunned watching from the side.
No, sister, this is too outrageous.
Who would hand over this kind of trump card for resurrection directly to someone else?
But fortunately, although Li Cheng was born a little bit, he still has some bottom line. He would never do such a thing - what are you doing!
I saw Li Cheng had already taken the crystal in his hand and couldn't wait to put it into his underwear.
He suddenly glanced at the stupid cat.
Are you kidding? Why wouldn’t I want the equipment I already have?
"Since you have accepted it, the contract is established. I will try my best to come back alive." Catalina said expressionlessly.
"On that note, I have something to give you." Li Cheng untied the bag behind him and placed it in front of Catalina.
"You were so eager for that holy sword before. I guess your enemy is related to fear. So, these are all items related to courage. Take them."
"Uh..." Catalina's heart trembled, and her mouth opened slightly: "You... bought these things for me?"
"Yes, of course, I'm not giving it to you for free. You still have to pay me according to the price of the goods." Li Cheng said slowly: "These things cost me 4E gold galleons in total. I'll give you a 75% discount, so just give me 3E."
Damn it, didn't we agree to give her an 8% discount? Why did you give her an 8% discount... Lilith's mouth twitched as she watched, and her eyes were filled with pity.
Katrina, Katrina, today may be the unluckiest day of your life...
As the daughter of Queen Lilith, out of caring for the people of the City of Law, Lilith felt that she still had to do something.
She rubbed her cat face, glared at Li Cheng, and signaled with her eyes - don't cheat my people like this!
Li Cheng gave her a disapproving look - Okay, whatever you want.
Lilith then sighed and said, "Well, Katarina, if you don't want these things, forget it. Well, I admit that my savior is a bit of a bastard, you——"
"I don't allow you to say that about this gentleman!" Before Lilith could finish her words, Katarina took a step forward and spoke loudly.
Lilith:? ? ?
"This gentleman is your savior. As a goddess, you call him a bastard in front of outsiders. Don't you think there is something wrong with you?" Katarina glared at Lilith.
Lilith: "Huh?"
"Besides, he didn't do anything bastard!" Catalina continued, "He bought these things and sold them to me because he must have seen that I have poor taste and was afraid that I would be cheated by Old John again!"
Lilith: “Huh??”
"If it weren't for this gentleman, I might not have bought any useful props." Catalina bowed to Li Chengyi: "Thank you so much, sir."
Lilith: “Huh???”
"And you, as a savior goddess, insult your own savior and don't want me to buy these equipment. What's your intention?" Catalina looked at her with contempt: "They are obviously a pair of partners, why is there such a big gap between them!"
Lilith: "No, I..."
She stared at Catalina blankly, and after a while, she looked at Li Cheng blankly: "No, you, say something!"
"...Yeah." Li Cheng nodded and gave Katarina a thumbs up: "Not bad, I didn't expect you to see the deep meaning of my doing this. The general of the city defense army is indeed worthy of his reputation."
"Oh, sir, you are too kind. This is just simple reasoning." Catalina nodded confidently: "But you have to discipline your pet well. Although you turned her into a pet, you may have noticed that something was wrong with her."
"But even pets can sometimes have second thoughts."
Lilith: "You, you are the pet. Your whole family is a pet!"
Okay, okay, that's how you do it, okay? I don't care anymore, just let Li Cheng, the newborn Dongxi, die!
"But, sir, I..." Catalina was a little embarrassed: "I don't have so much money on hand, I may not be able to buy so many things..."
"It's okay, you can take everything and give it to me later." Li Cheng waved his hand: "Of course, I have to write an IOU."
"Well, of course. Three hundred million gold Galleons..." Catalina nodded, and her evaluation of Li Cheng increased a few points.
It seems that this savior, like me, is a person who cannot bear to see the suffering of other people.
With his vision, it was impossible for him not to see that his journey to the M981 world would be filled with dangers and he might very well lose everything.
But he still kept these things to himself.
Presumably, he also felt the pain of the people in the M981 world, so he went through so much trouble to buy himself the equipment to fight against the evil god.
In order to allow himself to accept it calmly, he even used the excuse of "loaning it to himself".
What a gentle and noble savior.
He and his cat are like two peas in a pod!
Catalina made up her mind that she must return the money to Li Cheng.
Even if I don't eat or drink for hundreds of years, I have to pay it back!
"Sir, I will never forget your kindness. When I return from the M981 world, I will make a good doll for you and let you play with it until you are satisfied."
Li Cheng: 6.
……
at the same time.
Inside Old John's business.
"Yes, that's right, Mr. Treasurer, this is an absolute treasure, you know? The tears of the real God! Yes, yes, that's right, it's real, I have verified it!"
"Okay, then we'll see you on Sunday night. You can bring your family to the auction. I haven't seen your daughter for a long time, haha."
"Yes, yes, General, that's right, the tears of the true God. Oh, you know, when I saw this thing, my reaction was the same as yours. I almost kicked myself in the ass with my boot!"
"Yes, the auction will be held on Sunday evening. We look forward to your presence..."
"Your Excellency the Priest..."
"Your Excellency the Savior..."
"Your Mightiness……"
Only after the last call was over did Old John put down the rune stone, his face full of smugness.
Ah, it has been a long time since there was such a grand occasion.
When those big shots who rarely go out to see people heard the name "Tears of the True God", they immediately hummed softly!
It seems that my valuation of this thing is still a bit low!
What 10 billion gold galleons!
20 billion!
40 billion!
100 billion!
“Hahahaha, I found a bargain, I found a bargain! Hahahaha!!!”
Thinking of this, Old John laughed wildly again.
When I thought about the fact that I only spent less than 200 million to get such a product, I felt really happy.
He was extremely proud.
It's really me.
At the same time, he also secretly despised Li Cheng.
Haha, as expected, the money earned by luck will eventually be lost by strength.
If this little fat sheep knew that this thing could be sold at such a price in the end, would it be heartbroken and cry?
But there is no way, the shopping mall is like a battlefield.
I, Old John, have eaten more salt than you have ever drunk water!
Hahahaha!
As he thought about it, he opened the safe and took out the goods wrapped in red cloth.
Carefully, as if witnessing a miracle, he slightly untied the red cloth.
Then, a bottle of tears without any luster appeared in front of him.
There is not even a trace of the power of law lingering above.
It is just a bottle of [Demigod's Tears] that couldn't be more ordinary.
"..." Old John stared at the glass bottle blankly. After a few seconds, he laughed awkwardly: "Oh, I must have opened it the wrong way."
He rewrapped the glass bottle with trepidation.
Then, reverently and carefully, he opened the red cloth bit by bit.
Then he closed his eyes tightly, prayed in his heart for thirty seconds, and suddenly opened his eyes.
The bottle of [Demigod's Tears] that couldn't be more ordinary was lying in the middle of the red envelope, dull and lifeless.
One second later,
Old John:
Three seconds later,
Old John:
“Ahhhhhhhhh!!! Bastard, that man is a bastard!!!”
"Fake, this is fake!!!"
The next moment, he was so angry that his whole body was burning with anger. He took off on the spot like a rocket, smashed the ceiling of the shop, and flew into the sky.
“Ahhhhhh, where’s that person! Where’s that kid! I’m going to find you! Find you!!!”
