Chapter 224: Boss Chen Ye Is Really Good at Playing! (3rd Update)

"A thieving cat demon? This is a second-level occupation of the [Thief] sequence!"

"A fusion of the first-level [Thief] and the first-level monster sequence [Night Cat Demon]."

"It has invisibility, wall-penetration, and skilled theft skills."

"My store has been robbed!"

When Chen Ye saw the [Thief Cat Demon] appearing in front of him, he immediately thought of something, and his eyes immediately fell on the hint of the blood-colored text.

In the aura of luck, the outline of a petite and thin cat girl with cat ears and a cat tail was outlined.

As if sensing Chen Ye's gaze...

The cat girl's actions were obviously stunned for a moment, as if she realized that she seemed to be discovered, and instinctively stepped back a few steps.

The next second...

Chen Ye's face exploded and turned into tentacles, rolling towards the location where the blood-colored text appeared!

"Not good!"

A faint exclamation suddenly came out in the invisible air.

The bloody figure suddenly crouched down, just close to the edge of the demon's tentacles, dodging the attack.

A few black hairs fell to the ground!

Although Chen Ye's mouthparts side teeth failed to hit the invisible cat girl, they cut off a few hairs!

The next second.

The cat girl's outline jumped a few times with her agile body, flexibly found a way to survive in the gap from the attack of the demon's mouthparts, and shuttled through in a few seconds, with a ghostly figure and extremely agile.

She fled to the French window of "Integrity Restaurant" and planned to use the ability to pass through the wall to leave directly.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened!

Just as the cat girl was about to hit it head-on...

The French glass window was suddenly completely covered by the weird ink-colored tentacles!

The dark tentacles kept wriggling, as if they had life, and entangled with the cat girl.

The cat girl was startled, but luckily, as a "cat creature", she had a keen sixth sense for danger, so she jumped away immediately and avoided the embrace of the tentacles.

She was agile, and with just one step, her figure appeared on the other side of the store.

However, when the cat girl turned around, her face froze, and her pupils reflected something terrible...

The whole restaurant was shrouded in the wriggling black tentacles...

The tentacles were everywhere, covering the glass floor-to-ceiling windows, the door, the ceiling above and the ground below.

Even the direction of the staircase and the bar... Almost every visible corner was covered by black tentacles!

"Oh no..."

The cat girl was at a loss, sweating profusely.

The whole store was wrapped in black tentacles...

Although her characteristics can pass through walls, there is absolutely no way to pass through a pile of sticky tentacles...

She will definitely be caught!

But the entire store was covered by black tentacles, and the owner with an indescribable monster on his face was walking towards her in a dangerous manner...

It seemed that there was no way to escape!

Puff puff puff!

Before the cat girl had time to think about the escape route, the tentacles on the ground suddenly covered her feet...

The cat girl was shocked and hurriedly wanted to run away.

But these sticky tentacles firmly grasped her slender ankles that could be easily wrapped around with her thumb and index finger. When she suddenly exerted force, not only did she fail to escape, but she also fell to the ground due to the inertia of rushing forward, and her whole soft body suddenly fell face-to-face with the tentacles.

At that moment, the black tentacles immediately wrapped around the cat girl's limbs, like the hands of a devil, pinching her long and thin neck.

"Cough cough cough!"

The black tentacles suspended the cat girl's body in the air, not only binding her limbs, but also jamming her neck.

The cat girl had difficulty breathing and coughed repeatedly. She could no longer maintain her invisible posture and revealed her true form.

She looked only about twelve years old, with slightly dark skin and not delicate facial features, but she had the unique tenderness and beauty of a girl of this age. Her slender arms and ankles were covered with black tights, but her hands and feet were in the shape of cat paws. The area below her belly, which had no fat at all, was exposed, revealing her belly button.

There were traces of cream next to the corners of her flat and thin mouth.

It seemed that she had just enjoyed a good meal.

The cat's tail behind her seemed to be frightened, shaking constantly in the air, sometimes curling up, sometimes rising, as if it was panicked and scared.

Click! Click!

The surrounding lights were restored, and the soft and warm light illuminated the entire restaurant again.

The tentacles on the walls, ceiling, and door retreated like a tide.

However, the ink-colored tentacles wrapped around the cat girl did not show any sign of relaxation.

After all... the other party is a [Thieving Cat Demon], combining the stealth of [Thief] and the agility of [Night Cat Demon].

Fortunately, this is in our own "Integrity Restaurant".

If this thing runs outside, it will be really difficult to catch it back.

"It's over!"

At this moment, the cat girl showed a desperate expression on her face.

She was just hungry. Seeing that there was no boss in this restaurant, the cakes in the window were very delicious.

Unlocking the [Cat Demon] attribute of the 'Monster' sequence, while the appetite increased, it was also particularly greedy!

Hungry, seeing such a delicate and delicious cake, I couldn't help it, so I ran in and stole a few bites.

But because it was so delicious... I forgot myself while eating, and planned to eat my fill first, then take a few pieces of cake, pack them up and eat them later!

However, I didn't expect the owner to be such a ruthless character!

What on earth are those tentacles? They are so scary. They have blocked all the escape routes and I can't escape at all!

They also entangled me in the air, unable to move, and unable to resist...

Moreover, the guy's face exploded, which was so terrifying!

Combined with the tentacles in the restaurant...

The cat girl was desperate.

In all likelihood, I had provoked a perverted profession!

This can be said to be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth... No, it should be said that the "cat" entered the tiger's mouth.

But in this case, if the other party is really a pervert and has some special fetishes, then this life may be saved.

However...

Looking at the ink-colored tentacles around me, and then looking at the devil's mouth on the other party's face flying in the air like catkins...

This thing should not be very comfortable, right?

When the cat girl thought of this, her face became even more desperate. For a moment, she didn't understand whether she should die or live a miserable life.

Just as all kinds of strange movie scenes appeared in the cat girl's mind, and she was imagining...

Chen Ye couldn't help showing a strange look on his face.

This face... looks very familiar!

As if I have seen it somewhere before?

Closing his eyes, Chen Ye mobilized his majestic spiritual power and began to recall all kinds of details.

In a flash, a memory suddenly emerged, and the hazy picture suddenly became clear...

The cat girl's face gradually overlapped with a familiar figure!

"It's her?" Chen Ye remembered.

When he went to Xijiang for the first time to fetch water, a ragged girl begged him for a sip of water.

The girl said that her name was Shen Meng...

She looked exactly like the cat girl in front of him!

But the difference is...

Shen Meng is now wearing a sexy cat girl costume. Her thin and weak body, dark skin, devilish lines, sharp cat claws, cat ears on the top of her head, and the high cat tail reveal a primitive sexiness, which is extremely impactful.

At the beginning, Chen Ye thought that Shen Meng was a wanderer like himself.

But he didn't expect that the other party was a thief!

Thinking carefully, [thief] and [wanderer] also have similarities. If life is not down and out to a certain extent, who would risk their lives to steal property?

At this moment.

The demon mouthparts floating like catkins gradually gathered and turned into a handsome boy's face.

Shen Meng was a little stunned.

She never expected that this terrible guy looked so young and looked not much older than herself. At most, he was just a brother.

Even among the various film and television stars watched in the previous life, it is difficult to find such a youthful face.

Just like the hero who jumped out of a comic book.

"What's your name?" Chen Ye asked.

Is this considered interrogating a prisoner?

Faced with this question, Shen Meng was stunned, thinking about whether to give a fake name. But she glanced at the rules of the "Integrity Restaurant", hesitated for a moment, and answered honestly:

"My name is Shen Meng..."

It's really her... Chen Ye thought to himself, but his clothes have changed a lot from that time, and with the [Devil Mask], the contours of his facial features have slightly changed.

It's slightly different from when he just came.

The other party doesn't have such a strong memory, and it's normal that he can't recognize it after more than a month.

What's more, he and Shen Meng met by chance, and just gave a few sips of water. It's not a friendship, let alone a relationship between acquaintances.

There's no need to talk about these things.

Chen Ye glanced at the cake behind him and said indifferently: "Ten cakes, three hundred copper coins."

"Ah?" Shen Meng showed a puzzled look.

"After eating, pay." Chen Ye said coldly.

"Sorry... that... I don't have money..." Shen Meng showed a look of guilt and despair. If she had money, she wouldn't come to steal food.

"You should know what the price of violating the restaurant rules is, right?"

As soon as Chen Ye finished speaking, the light bulb above suddenly dimmed, and the light source flickered unsteadily, shining on his face, looking as terrifying as a demon.

He laughed playfully: "Then you should know what effect will be triggered if the principle of equivalent exchange is not followed?"

The tentacles seemed to have turned into the mouth of the abyss, constantly approaching Shen Meng, as if to swallow this girl.

"Sorry!"

"I really don't have any money on me..."

"You... Whatever price you want me to pay... I can accept it..."

"But I don't want to be eaten..."

As she spoke, Shen Meng's voice became as small as the buzzing of a mosquito, as if she had made a difficult decision.

I have no money...

The only value on me seems to be that, right?

But thinking of the handsome face of the young man, Shen Meng's cheeks suddenly turned red. After struggling for a few times, she felt that it was acceptable.

It's better than death!

Chen Ye raised his eyebrows: "It seems that you are ready to pay the price."

"Yes... whatever you want to do, it's up to you."

"You said it."

Suddenly, Shen Meng felt her hands and feet loosen, and the tentacles covering her body loosened immediately.

"Hmm..."

Her body lost balance and fell to the ground, like a cat lying on the ground.

The next second.

Chen Ye scratched his index finger with his teeth.

A drop of red blood turned into a devil's contract in the void, floating in front of Shen Meng.

"Sign it, this is the price you pay."

Shen Meng's pupils reflected the contract, and she was suddenly stunned.

It seemed that if she looked carefully, her mind would be trapped in a whirlpool.

After a moment.

She came back to her senses and was shocked.

"Devil's Contract?"

"Could it be that... the owner of the cake shop in front of me is a third-turn [Devil Arbitrator]?"

"Oh my god! He's actually a third-turn! This is too scary!"

"Shen Meng, Shen Meng, how unlucky you are to have provoked a third-turn demon!"

"If you sign this demon's contract, you will be at the mercy of the other party. You will be the other party's person in life and the other party's ghost in death..."

Shen Meng had a hard time speaking. She naturally knew that the [Devil's Contract] was the most overbearing contract in the Weird Era!

Generally speaking, contracts are used as fair evidence for transactions.

The [Bright Judge] of the [Fire Sun] sequence communicates with the Lord of the Fire Sun with the Star Spirit Body, formulates contracts, and abides by promises.

But if the [Moon], which is opposite to the [Fire Sun], can merge with the [Demon], it can also obtain similar characteristics.

Moreover, compared with the fairness and equality of the [Fire Sun], the [Devil's Contract] breaks the principle of equivalence and is more overbearing, which is equivalent to selling one's soul to the devil!

If you sign the [Devil Contract] in the game of Weird Era, it is almost the same as the end of the game.

"Alas, this time I bought a cake, and I can say that I have put my whole self into it."

Shen Meng sighed, and then his eyes fell on the terms of this [Devil Contract]:

[Devil Contract——]

[1. Player 'Shen Meng' will become a restaurant employee permanently, with a monthly salary of fifty copper coins;]

[2. Do not cause any adverse impact on the owner, including leaking any information to the outside, and making harmful actions;]

[3. Obey all work arrangements and outbound tasks of this store, and do not refuse unless there are special circumstances;]

[4. This contract is permanent and requires both parties to reach an agreement to cancel it;]

[5. Violation of the contract will be punished by soul annihilation! ]

"This condition... doesn't seem to be as excessive as imagined!"

Shen Meng looked at the terms of this [Devil Contract] and was stunned.

Except for having to obey all arrangements and tasks of this store, the other terms are relatively acceptable.

Even...

After becoming an employee, there will be a salary of fifty copper coins per month?

This is a development that Shen Meng had never thought of.

You know, [Devil Contract] is a contract that does not care about the constraints of the equivalent rule.

It is usually an overlord clause!

But this [Devil Contract] is not as overbearing as imagined, but it is very kind.

"You are lucky today."

"After all, my restaurant is still in the opening period. I am the only boss to take care of it, and I am short of manpower."

"From today on, you will officially become an employee of this store. Although the salary is not much, you must obey the arrangement. Do you understand?"

Chen Ye said in an irresistible tone.

"Understand! Understand!"

Shen Meng nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at rice.

No matter what...

I am lucky enough to be able to save my life!

Moreover, the other party is willing to give me such a high monthly salary, which is really conscientious!

That damn gang leader, with so many employees under him, fought for a month, but in the end he ran away, without even a salary.

Otherwise, as a second-level professional, he would not have fallen to the point of stealing food...

In fact.

The reason why Chen Ye chose to give wages was to avoid inequality.

After all, he had been exposed to the "fate" sequence. Even if [Devil Contract] can avoid negative effects, it is better not to leave any loopholes.

At his current rate of making money, a salary of fifty copper coins a month is already very low.

And...

In exchange, it is a second-level professional, unconditional help.

[Thieving Cat Demon], as a [Thief] with relatively active mobility, not only has combat power in the future, but also can unlock the ability to temporarily steal characteristics!

Staying by your side can be a strong helper.

Spending fifty copper coins to eliminate any possible negative effects, in exchange for an excellent helper to assist yourself, may have a miraculous effect for future raids.

Moreover, in Shen Meng's eyes, fifty copper coins a month is actually a lot.

It can also make the other party feel at ease to stay by his side and serve as an employee.

Although the "honest store" is protected by the real estate, we also have to worry about [thieves] like Shen Meng coming in.

I have to designate a strategy plan myself, and I can't stay in the store 24 hours a day, right?

At that time...

Having employees to help watch the store and take care of the business is undoubtedly the best choice.

Shen Meng bit his finger, wrote his name with blood, and signed it in the lower right corner of the [Devil's Contract]...

Just then...

A gust of cold wind suddenly came, and the contract book burst into a faint light, turning into a chain of imprisonment, buckled around Shen Meng's neck.

If the contract is violated, in addition to the annihilation of the soul, the neck chain transformed by the contract book will immediately crush the opponent's head, suffering a double death in body and consciousness.

For players of low and medium sequences, there are almost no means of survival to escape from the shackles of the [Devil's Contract].

As long as the contract is violated, it is almost a certain death!

"Shen Meng, show me the fighting ability of the cat demon." Chen Ye said slowly.

[The thieving cat demon] has the most top-notch dexterity and fighting power among the second-level professions.

Coming to reality, he needs to recalculate the speed so that he can use the most correct operation to fight.

"Well." Although Shen Meng didn't know what the new boss wanted to do, he signed the [Devil's Contract] and had to do whatever the other party said.

Even if it's a new job...

The next second, her body was lying on the ground, and suddenly burst out with amazing speed, sometimes jumping to the other side, sometimes lying on the wall, and her figure "flew" gracefully from mid-air. When landing, the cat's claws swung out several sharp cold rays, which could easily penetrate wooden tables and cement bricks. If the speed was faster, it could even break the steel plate in two!

Launch [Theft in the Air]...

Not far away, a bone suddenly appeared in Shen Meng's mouth in the air. She bit the bone, lying on the ground with her limbs, but her back was arched off the ground, like a wild cat with its fur standing up, like a crossbow ready to go, seizing the opponent's weapon and biting it in her mouth, with her focused pupils standing in a line, as if ready to attack at any time.

Dongdongdong!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Shen Meng's movements immediately stopped, and she followed Chen Ye's gaze and looked towards the door together.

I saw a middle-aged man wearing a chef's uniform, with a round face and a simple look, standing under the crimson moonlight, looking like a chef.

A bright red square appeared above the other person's head——

[Delicious Cook]

Chen Ye realized something, opened the door, looked up and down at the other person, and asked:

"Wang Jing?"

"Boss?"

"It turned out to be you, why didn't you send me a message before you came?" Chen Ye suddenly realized, remembering that he had sent a message to Wang Jing yesterday, asking him to come to the "Integrity Restaurant".

But I didn't expect... I stayed in the spiritual world for too long, so I came back now.

"Hahaha, I finally see the boss!" Wang Jing followed Chen Ye into the restaurant, smiling and explaining, "I knew that the boss had a lot of strategies, so I came here during the day and saw that you didn't come back for a while, so I waited until the evening to come again."

At this moment, Wang Jing's eyes moved slightly downward and suddenly froze.

The girl lying on the ground had cat ears, cat claws, and a cat tail... She was wearing a tight outfit that showed off her perfect curves, her belly button was exposed, and she had a collar around her neck. Most importantly, she had a bone in her mouth. Her wild posture made her look like a dog and a cat...

Wang Jing suddenly felt that he might have come at the wrong time in the middle of the night...

As expected of a big shot, he was really good at playing!
