"What exquisite pictures!"
"What a grand worldview!"
"I-is this really a novel from the Underworld?"
Her attitude changed in an instant.
Pela's eyes were burning as she looked at the booklet in her hand.
This kind of book, filled with hot-blooded passion and a spirit of resistance, would definitely be another forbidden book in the Overworld.
But just from the style of the introduction and the vast worldview, the excitement of this story was no less than that of "The Adventurous Tales of the Snow Kingdom."
Even the promotional pictures were so exquisite, as if the drawing technique was not on the same level as this world!
"Chu Ze, if you have the chance, please be sure to bring me a set."
"I'll pay three times... no, you can name your price!"
Pela could no longer bother with hiding it.
For a heavy novel enthusiast, this book was a direct hit on her preference zone.
Especially knowing that Chu Ze was from the Underworld, and that it might be difficult to meet again in the future, she decisively took out her wallet and was about to take out a sufficient number of Winter-City Shields as a deposit.
Chu Ze didn't accept these Winter-City Shields, but took out another promotional booklet:
"If you're so interested, would you like to take a look at another one, 'Cloud Knights Battle the Firmament'?"
"Gulp..."
The cover, with its equally exquisite art style, and the composition with the mysterious universe as the background, once again attracted Pela's attention.
Although reason told her that she couldn't continue reading, because the more she read, the more her anticipation would grow, her small hand, wrapped in a black silk glove, still couldn't help but reach for the promotional booklet...
...
...
And so, the conversation between the two completely opened up.
Chu Ze freely displayed the best-selling novels from the Luofu Xianzhou and engaged in a discussion about the plot with Pela.
In his past life, he was confined to a hospital ward, and what he did most was reading and playing games.
In the later stages of his illness, he couldn't even play games. He could only listen to novels being read every day, soaring in the world of fantasy.
Because of this, he had developed a unique understanding of stories and novels, and had no barriers in communicating with a veteran enthusiast like Pela.
Pela also completely let go of her initial recruitment purpose and threw herself into the discussion with him.
"...The oath is like a cloud obscuring the sky, protecting the Xianzhou. I will practice this oath until the last day of my life!"
"As his voice fell, the light arrow of The Hunt descended on the battlefield! The Divine Arrow's gaze was fixed on him. The seemingly thin figure finally defeated his old enemy and protected the peace of one side!"
Chu Ze's voice fell.
Pela couldn't help but clench her fists:
"A happy ending, good!"
"But the protagonist of the previous work, Lan, actually appeared in the new work, and with such a high status."
"Both the nostalgia fans and the lore fans can feel the joy of two fandoms combined. This author's skill is really amazing."
Of course, it's amazing.
After all, it was adapted from a real story.
Chu Ze handed the promotional booklet to Pela, temporarily not telling her the truth.
If she knew that these hot-blooded fantasy stories were real experiences that happened in the Alliance, that there were really sky-covering Xianzhou in the vast universe, as well as Aeons who could cast their gaze and Emanators who could move mountains and fill seas...
Pela would probably not be able to sleep well.
"Phew, thank you, Chu Ze, for sharing so many stories I've never heard before."
Pela's little face was flushed. This was a reaction caused by excessive excitement:
"I even thought the creative environment of the Overworld was at its peak. It turns out I was the real frog in the well."
"The vastness of the universe, the richness of people's imagination, there really is no end."
Chu Ze nodded in agreement.
Then, as if discussing the plot of a novel, he suddenly asked a question:
"Then what if one day, you also get the opportunity to travel the sea of stars?"
"Would you put down your job as an intelligence officer in Belobog and ride a ship across the universe?"
Pela thought for a moment:
"If the crisis in Belobog is alleviated, perhaps I would do so."
"But I definitely can't be away for a long time. After all, I have my friends and my partners here."
Chu Ze showed a satisfied expression:
"Don't worry, it won't be for too long."
"After all, I also have to use my starship for business. At most, I can only spare about a month a year for my private industry, so you can just treat it as an occasional short long vacation."
Pela smiled lightly:
"Don't confuse fantasy with reality. You make it sound as if I can really travel the universe..."
She really can.
This was also the private industry plan that Chu Ze had already envisioned.
According to Xiao Yi's analysis, Jarilo's Geomarrow vein had a certain competitiveness in the entire universe.
After all, before the great blockade, this place had signed many trade agreements and had vigorously developed tourism and mining.
Therefore, after the Belobog incident was over, Chu Ze planned to snatch the mineral orders here before the Corporation.
How to snatch them, this involved his later plans. But for the subsequent trading part, he would need a living person as an assistant.
After all, Xiao Yi had no physical body, and some things were very inconvenient to do. And the Herta puppets were just puppets, not intelligent machines with human rights.
So Chu Ze had his eye on Pela, wanting her to be his trading assistant.
She had excellent learning ability and was a local of Belobog. She was skilled in both reviewing contracts and internal communication.
They would run once a year, for about a month each time. The estimated income was quite considerable, and according to the plan, it should be several billion a year.
At least, the starship fuel would be free. He could spend it however he wanted.
"Dong—dong—"
The sound of a bell came from outside.
Chu Ze and Pela both came back to their senses.
Outside the window, there was already a little sunlight. The two of them had unknowingly chatted for a whole night.
"Time really flies."
Pela took a deep breath, broke away from the atmosphere of a fellow enthusiast, and returned to her usual mood:
"It seems we have to part ways, Chu Ze."
"For your help in arresting a wanted criminal, the Silvermane Guards will not arrest you this time."
"But if we meet again next time... ahem, if we meet during my working hours next time, then I'm sorry."
Chu Ze blinked:
"You separate work and life quite clearly?"
"Of course. The two can't be mixed."
Pela originally had her own doubts about the policy of sealing off the Underworld.
So she had no psychological burden in becoming friends with Chu Ze.
"Sigh, if only the mobile phones in science fiction novels could appear in reality, so that people in different places could also chat anytime, anywhere."
The young woman said with some anticipation.
Chu Ze smiled slightly:
"Don't worry, that day will come, and it won't be too far away."
"Then I'll be leaving first. Bye-bye."
"Mhm, next time we meet, I hope we can exchange our recommended novels... of course, please don't look for me during working hours..."
They separated at the intersection.
Watching Chu Ze's departing figure, Pela gently exhaled a breath of cold air.
Then, with a satisfied smile on her face, she walked towards her workplace at Qlipoth Fort.
...The feeling of making a new friend doesn't seem bad.
...
...
This time, Chu Ze didn't stay any longer.
After dealing with the Stellaron incident in Belobog, he went straight back to the starship and opened his phone notifications.
Two unread messages came into view.
The first one was from his little sister. The content was simple and crude.
[Stelle]: Bro, I want you.
The incubus Stellaron-infused is still at it.
Chu Ze didn't plan to respond with words, but directly with his body.
So he casually swiped past this message and looked at the second letter.
[Ruan Mei]: Are you there?
[Ruan Mei]: Let's have a good talk. I'll wait for you.
