214: The wives were shocked. Was this a robbery of the elves?

Su Mo walked to the super-sized bed, big enough for seven or eight people to roll around in, and his gaze swept over the three beautiful sleeping faces still deep in slumber, a smile unconsciously curving his lips.

First, he leaned down and gently pressed a kiss on Xiao Wu's smooth, full forehead.

Then he turned to Rose, biting her full red lips, not too hard, not too soft, which elicited a disgruntled grunt from her in her sleep.

Finally, his gaze fell upon Shen Yufu.

With a mischievous smile, he reached out and lifted a corner of her thin silk nightgown. Her straight, long legs, encased in extremely smooth black stockings, were thus exposed to the air.

“Slap!”

Su Mo skillfully reached out and slapped the smooth, taut black stocking, the sensation excellent.

“Mmm…”

Shen Yufu trembled at the touch, her long eyelashes fluttering as she slowly opened her clear, cold eyes, still hazy with sleep.

When she clearly saw the man with the mischievous smile by the bed, her fair cheeks instantly flushed red.

“Su Mo! You scoundrel! What’s gotten into you so early in the morning?!”

She angrily whispered, raising the long leg encased in black stockings, intending to kick this audacious fellow off the bed.

Unfortunately, her strength was no match for Su Mo.

With a gentle grip, Su Mo firmly caught her restless leg, and then smoothly pulled her perfect foot, still in its black stocking, into his embrace.

“Wife, time to get up. I’ve brought you something good,” Su Mo said, his fingers lightly tracing the delicate stocking.

“Something good?” Shen Yufu’s voice was hoarse from sleep, full of suspicion.

What good thing could this guy possibly have? Wasn't he just trying to bully her in a new way?

“Of course,” Su Mo smiled mysteriously.

He waved his arm.

Clatter—

A crisp sound of glass clinking rang out, and the next second, a large pile of exquisite crystal bottles, emitting various colored lights, appeared out of thin air, forming a glittering small mountain on the soft bedsheets.

The rich, almost liquefied, fragrance of the potions instantly enveloped the entire room, and even the air seemed to thicken.

“This… this is…”

Shen Yufu stared at the mountain of Advanced Potions before her, her clear, cold eyes instantly freezing, filled with shock.

With trembling hands, she picked up a bottle, her gaze falling on the label.

【Advanced Strength Potion (Perfect)】

【Effect: Upon consumption, permanently increases Strength attribute by 100 points.】

Boom!

The moment she read these attributes, Shen Yufu felt her brain crash.

She stared blankly at the potion in her hand, then at the small mountain of at least seventy-something potions, her face filled with disbelief.

“Su… Su Mo…”

Her voice trembled, “Did… did you rob the Elf Clan’s potion workshop?!”

On the other side, Rose and Xiao Wu, who had been woken by the commotion, were equally speechless at the sight before them.

“Holy crap! Su Mo! You’re seriously amazing!” Rose sat up, the quilt slipping down to reveal her stunning curves.

She looked at the pile of potions, her narrow phoenix eyes sparkling with excitement.

“How did you get so many Advanced Potions?! Tell me, did you really ‘persuade’ that old hag who’s lived for hundreds of years by sleeping with her?”

Only Xiao Wu remained innocent, she leaned towards the mountain of potions, picked up a bottle, and sniffed it at her nose.

“Wow! It smells so good!” Her big, watery pink eyes looked at Su Mo, and she asked expectantly,

“Su Mo, Su Mo, are all these for us?”

Seeing the three women’s varied and expressive faces, Su Mo proudly puffed out his chest.

“Of course they’re for you. I ‘exchanged’ these from Elf Elder with my unparalleled personal charm.”

“Personal charm?” A cold smile appeared on Shen Yufu’s face.

“I don’t believe a word of it! You old scoundrel are very cunning! Quickly tell me! What exactly did you do to that Elf Elder?!”

As she spoke, she extended her small fist, lightly hitting Su Mo’s chest, like a fierce wife “interrogating” her husband.

“Exactly!”

Rose immediately followed suit, her fiery body pressing close from the other side, and she said in a threatening tone:

“Su Mo, you’d better confess honestly! If you dare to lie, you won’t be getting off this bed today!”

“Ahem.”

Sandwiched between the two, Su Mo felt overwhelmed.

He knew that if he didn't give an explanation today, this matter wouldn't end well.

He cleared his throat twice, looking wronged: “Wives, I’m innocent! Last night, I really only had Elf Elder refine thirteen bottles of potions!”

“Thirteen bottles?”

Shen Yufu and Rose’s gazes simultaneously fell on the mountain of potions, their eyes seemingly saying: Do you think we’re blind? This doesn’t look like thirteen bottles at all?!

“Su Mo, you’re still trying to trick us?”

The coldness on Shen Yufu’s face intensified. She flexed her wrist, and her joints made a series of crisp “crackling” sounds.

“Do you believe me when I say I’ll let you experience the power of the Invincible Valkyrie today?!”

Su Mo’s eyelid twitched. He had no doubt that this jealous woman could indeed “execute” him on the spot.

“Alright, alright, I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you, is that not enough?” Su Mo finally raised his hands in surrender.

He cleared his throat, his expression suddenly becoming serious: “Actually… my talent is Divine-grade.”

“Divine-grade talent?”

Shen Yufu and Rose were both stunned by his words, but there wasn’t too much surprise on their faces.

They had long suspected this; it would be abnormal for Su Mo to be so ridiculously strong without a Divine-grade talent.

“And then?” Shen Yufu pressed.

Su Mo took a deep breath and slowly uttered a few words: “My Divine-grade talent is called [Lord of Greed].”

He paused, looking at their curious eyes, and then, word by word, dropped the real bombshell.

“One of its effects is that all resources collected by me and my companions in my team can be additionally duplicated nine times in my storage space!”

When Su Mo’s words came out so casually, the entire room instantly fell into an eerie silence.

Shen Yufu, who was about to “interrogate” Su Mo, froze with her raised fist in mid-air.

Rose, who was ready to “aid and abet,” seemed to have been put on pause, even forgetting to breathe.

Even Xiao Wu, who was still curiously playing with the potions, loosened her grip, and a crystal potion bottle slid down the bedsheet, making a soft “gurgling” sound before Rose, who had reacted, quickly snatched it up.

Three pairs of incredibly beautiful eyes stared fixedly at Su Mo, reflecting the same kind of almost blank stupor.

After a while, Rose was the first to find her voice, but it was dry as if sandpaper was rubbing.

“Nine… nine copies?”

She painstakingly turned her stiff neck, her gaze shifting from Su Mo’s face to the pile of potions, and then back again.

“You mean… this pile of stuff, originally there were only… thirteen bottles?”

This simple arithmetic problem, at this moment, felt like a mountain, crushing her and making her breathless.

“Su Mo!”

Shen Yufu grabbed Su Mo’s arm, her fingertips icy cold, yet her grip was surprisingly strong.

“Say it again! What exactly is your talent?!”

“Hmm.” Su Mo looked at the three women’s adorable, world-shaking expressions, smiled and nodded, but his tone was incredibly serious,

“It's absolutely true, [Lord of Greed] allows all resources acquired by me and my team members to be duplicated nine additional times in my space.”

The reason he chose to reveal it now was, firstly, because they were already family he could trust without reservation;

Secondly, his current strength and the great displacement skill [Monarch Shift] meant he no longer feared the risks of a secret leak in the real world.

More importantly, he suspected that the Elf Queen, who had lived for over a thousand years, had already guessed something.

Otherwise, it would be inexplicable how she could accurately report his 2.5 million merit points less than two days after he entered the dungeon, and it would be even more impossible for her to so “generously” offer Irina and a “Prince” status under the guise of a bet.

Rather than letting this secret become a leverage for others, it was better to reveal it himself.

And he could also take the opportunity to show off in front of his wives, what’s not to like?

However, Su Mo’s “confession” stirred up a monstrous storm in the minds of the three women.

Duplicate nine copies!

What did this mean?

It meant that as long as Su Mo wished, he could accumulate terrifying wealth that would make any top guild green with envy, in just one percent of the time others would take!

It meant he could arm himself and those around him to the teeth in the most extravagant way!

“Wait a minute…”

Rose seemed to have figured something out, her narrow phoenix eyes staring fixedly at Su Mo, shimmering with an indescribable light.

“Su Mo, your talent… is it really just Divine-grade? Why do I feel like this thing is a bit overpowered?

Could it be… that the Gaia System’s rating limit is only Divine-grade?”

Rose’s words made Shen Yufu and Xiao Wu instinctively nod.

It was indeed too outrageous!

“Wow!”

Xiao Wu, who had been silent, suddenly exclaimed. She counted on her fingers, looking at Su Mo with a serious expression,

“Su Mo, Su Mo, does that mean if I find one candy in the future, it can turn into ten candies?”

This childlike, innocent question instantly dispelled the heavy atmosphere in the room.

Su Mo couldn’t help but reach out and pinch her little face, “That’s right, our Xiao Wu will have endless candies to eat from now on.”

“Holy crap! Su Mo!”

She spoke each word slowly, her expression frighteningly serious.

“Confess honestly… are you perhaps the Gaia System’s biological son?!”

“Pfft—”

Su Mo looked at the three women’s “we’ve seen through the truth” expressions, and he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“Wives, isn’t your imagination a bit too rich? If I were the Gaia System’s biological son, would I still need to painstakingly grind dungeons here?”

Su Mo spread his hands and said with a matter-of-fact expression: “I would have long since been invincible, traveling the world and flirting with girls.”

As soon as he said this, the three women collectively rolled their eyes at him.

Never straying from his true nature in three sentences.
