After returning home, Li Nuo looked at the clock on the wall, his eyes widening like bells.

"I'm not sleepy anymore..."

"What a shame..."

There are still two hours before the sun shines on his butt. Li Nuo went to the bathroom to wash his face.

When the cold water hit his face, Li Nuo suddenly felt a stinging pain in his head. He immediately stopped and stared at his face in the mirror.

He looked haggard and yellow, as if he had stayed in an Internet cafe for two days and two nights.

Since he recovered from the illness a few months ago, the sallowness has never appeared on his face again.

"Nearly dead again?"

He jokingly filled the sink with cold water and plunged his head into it. When he raised his head again, the fatigue disappeared.

"Level 30... alchemy... Cairo Company..."

"Ronald...Charon..."

Li Nuo raised the corners of his mouth, stared at him in the mirror like a narcissist, patted his face, turned around and walked out of the bathroom.

"The plan can begin..."

He picked up his cell phone, dialed Marjie's number, looked at the half-drawn manuscript on the table, and when he answered the phone, he said: "Brother Ma, please help me get a hand-drawn tablet."

"Also...your brother who is very good at satellite maps, can he help me hack a website?"

…

early morning.

Xu Le was woken up by the alarm, and stood up slowly in confusion, rubbing his forehead and trying to make the sleepiness dissipate.

As the chief editor of the company's comics department and Li Nuo's future boss, Xu Le's life has always been in an irregular rhythm.

Last night, he drank until early in the morning to accompany his boss. There was a meeting this morning, and with the alcohol still lingering, he had to get up early to go to the company.

He had had enough of this kind of life for a long time, but thinking about the triplets his wife gave birth to in a "fighting spirit" and the monthly mortgage of 20,000 yuan, Xu Le got out of bed honestly, walking very lightly, for fear of disturbing him.

My wife is still sleeping.

He made himself a cup of instant coffee, took out the frozen sandwich from the refrigerator and put it in the microwave to wait. Then he picked up his phone, as a habit he wanted to check if he had any missed night messages.

"Damn it... we have another internal review meeting... Do these old men like meetings so much..."

"Hmm... Xiaomaki's marketing plan... what the hell, the quality is too bad... Ah... this guy is a related customer, I can't say anything about him, so I have no choice but to do it again myself."

"It's been a bad morning, as usual."

"Um?"

"this……?"

"I...fuck!"

His sound of fucking woke up his dog and his wife.

Xu Le was so shocked by the two pieces of news.

Li Nuo's serialized comic "The Wandering Primary School Student" was announced to have ended two hours ago.

To complete the work, the author needs to inform his editor in advance, and then complete the work within three weeks after approval. Unless he no longer wants to draw, he must follow this process.

Li Nuo published a new chapter directly at night. It was only one page. The protagonist knelt on the ground and said: I, the eunuch.

He skipped the editor's review and directly announced the completion of the work in his own name.

Xu Le was not in a hurry to call Li Nuo, because there was a new file in his mailbox from Li Nuo.

The content is a new comic, a draft of only one chapter, and the first page shows a half-clothed beast girl...

Even though he had read all the pornographic pictures, Xu Le was still half-heated by the figure and expression of the woman in the picture.

Just when he was about to continue reading, Li Nuo called.

"Mr. Xu, how do you feel about the beast mother?"

"Yes, it's just a pity that the innocent primary school student was defiled by the beast mother."

"Remember what I told you, it's difficult for me to cater to market demand?"

Li Nuo's voice paused for a few seconds.

"I will compromise now."

"Ha, what made Painter Li realize the reality?"

"status."

Li Nuo's answer was far beyond Xu Le's expectations. He was caught off guard and didn't even know how to answer this sentence.

"Mr. Xu, I will send the manuscript directly to you. If possible, I hope to have a reply soon to see if it can be serialized."

Xu Le flipped the phone screen with his fingers and looked at the beast girl, black sofa, and camera on the screen...

Xu Le understood Li Nuo's thoughts and skipped editing and gave the work directly to him as the editor-in-chief. Accordingly, he would get a better recommendation position during the serialization period. It was a very common shortcut method, but the work must also be excellent to get into the editor-in-chief's position.

Eye.

"Okay, but I have a digression and a few things to tell you..."

"Let's talk about it after we meet the unit. I'm already here."

Li Nuo said and hung up the phone, making Xu Le confused. However, looking at the comics on the phone screen, Xu Le still swallowed his breath...

"What happened to make this kid a different person?"

…

One day later, "Endless Corridor".

Cha Bai returned to the space, and she was now the only one here.

Because of the time difference, she came back earlier than the agreed time.

There was no one around, so Chabai sat on the rocking chair and stared blankly at the ceiling.

As agreed, today is the day for her to undergo an examination.

This feeling is very strange, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, slightly nervous.

Not long after, Li Nuo and Marjie appeared almost at the same time.

The three of them didn't say anything nonsense. After all, they are in the same world now. Marjie has been paying attention to the situation over Chabai and knows that she is safe now. There is no need to talk more about Li Nuo and the company when there is no definite good news.

explain.

"Yang Chen and the others will ask us to meet in the lower area in twenty minutes. We will meet at the teahouse and then we will listen to them."

Li Nuo said what he and Yang Chen said on the phone.

It's nothing more than agreeing on a meeting place, and being prepared to bring some useful things there, such as [Brilliant Keystone] or [Barrow Ash] used for the benefit fee.

Two more friend emails appeared in Li Nuo's mailbox.

The first one came from Qin Shou: [We haven’t contacted each other for a long time. That day you suddenly asked for props and materials. It looked very rushed and urgent. Did something happen? 】

This damn fat guy really has no bad intentions... Li Nuo sighed and clicked on the second email without rushing to reply.

News from Sauron.

[I plan to form a trade union, let’s talk about it when we have time]

Before Li Nuo could reply, he heard Marjie say: "Soran left me a message and asked me to advise you to consider cooperating with him."

"Let's leave it for now," Li Nuo replied.

He and Marger reached a very fair solution that night on whether to join the union.

Rock, paper, scissors, best of three games, Li Nuo won in the end, and the traveler group will not join any union for the time being.

However, Sauron's situation is quite special, which will be discussed later...

Li Nuo took out his pocket watch and clicked it open. The minute hand on the dial told him that there were still sixteen minutes left before meeting Yang Chen.

He took back his pocket watch, not intending to waste a second, and took out the skill [Refining Technique] he got from Ludos from his backpack.

Then he clicked on his attribute panel. The light blue glossy panel expanded elastically, and the word "wash points" appeared above his name. This was a special reward after passing the assessment.

Cha Bai walked past him and reminded him softly: "Li Nuo, I suggest you try to wash your hands after sparring with Yang Chen and the others."

"No need." Li Nuo stared at the attribute values ​​​​on the panel and said with a smile: "The penalty for failure in the future is to die. The sparring with Yang Chen and the others is the last chance to not pay for failure. I plan to use this experiment to gain some points."

ability.”

"But how to use this washing point...?"

Li Nuo deliberated and reached out to touch the "washing point" on the panel, only to hear a system tone in his ear...

[Are you sure you want to reassign the attribute value?]

"yes."

[You only have one chance. Once used up, it cannot be restored. Are you sure?]

"yes."

"Very sure."

[Please wait, your data is being calculated...]

In Cha Bai's eyes, Li Nuo stood motionless like a frozen statue. She tried pushing Li Nuo's shoulder, but it felt like he was touching a stone.

"Hello!?" Chabai's current mental state is getting more and more tense because of being harassed by curses every day. The slightest change in the grass and grass will cause all the trees and grass to fall into disarray. Li Nuo's appearance makes her nervous, and she habitually curses those in negative states immediately.

Think about the direction.

Seeing this, Marjie said: "Don't worry about him, it's time to start washing."

"Washing... is it to immobilize people?" Chabai curiously patted Li Nuo's face again.

At this time, in Li Nuo's eyes, there was a white light all around, and an iron gate nearly ten meters high rose from the ground.

"..."

"This scene...the world of truth..."

The surrounding area looks very much like the Door of Truth in "Fullmetal Alchemist", but at this moment, the iron door slowly opens...
Chapter completed!
