It's quite normal for Herrscher to be stronger than Divine Key.

Chapter 129 The Puppet Transformation Waite and the Disliked Anzu

Fortunately, once the limit is exceeded, the Void Archive can reach the level of the other party, and the copying limit is even higher than that of the other party.

After all, according to the information Chen Luo currently has, S-rank is 5 stars, but 5 stars is not necessarily S-rank; it could also be SS rank.

As for that vague 6-star rating, perhaps it's just SS rank.

Of course, this was just Chen Luo's guess, and it was not confirmed by the talent panel.

The talent panel only shows its presence when Chen Luo accepts commissions and makes purchases. This kind of knowledge is never explained to Chen Luo; he has to figure it out himself.

And perhaps the Void Archive after exceeding the limit can also reach that level I'm thinking of.

However, this did not stop Chen Luo from painstakingly copying the entire blueprint of the Third Divine Key.

The Welt in front of Chen Luo was merely a clone of the first Herrscher of Reason, created by Cocolia using cloning technology.

However, the opponent's cloning technology is not advanced enough yet, so the cloned First Herrscher Welt only has the ability to manipulate gravity.

This ability to manipulate gravity comes from the First Herrscher's favorite Divine Key, the Star of Eden.

However, the opponent's gravity manipulation was really weak, not only inferior to Welt Joyce but also inferior to Welt Young.

Of course, since it is a clone, it is impossible to clone only one.

This Welt should only be the first Welt to appear; Cocolia, that female fox, has Welt quite a few Welts.

However, Cocolia's cloning technology was clearly flawed, and these flaws were almost impossible to remedy. Therefore, in the Post-Honkai Odyssey, Welt Yang mentioned that almost all of Welt's clones suffered mental problems and committed suicide.

In short, very few of them died peacefully, so they could only be used as consumables.

Of the two Welt clones Chen Luo knew, one liked to wear a big gold chain, which was the one in front of him, while the other liked to lick things with his tongue.

What is before us is undoubtedly Waite, not Welt II.

"A clone? What nonsense are you spouting? Forget it, there's no point in talking to someone as incomprehensible as you. Just surrender obediently and hand over the knowledge of that Different World in your mind. I, the Herrscher of Reason, the one who controls the rules of gravity, shall submit before me!"

Welt, standing not far in front of Chen Luo, let out a wild laugh, and his body slowly floated up. A black sphere the size of a fist suddenly appeared in front of him, and an overwhelming and terrifying power was exerted on his surroundings, including Chen Luo and Xing within the range.

Gravity, an extremely terrifying gravity, so strong that Chen Luo couldn't help but crouch down to resist it.

Chen Luo's physical strength was not enough to remain completely unaffected by such a large increase in gravity.

"Tsk." Chen Luo was quite annoyed.

You call yourself Herrscher of Reason? If it weren't for Lao Tzu's Void Archive being in the process of exceeding its limits, I would have shown you what a true First Herrscher is all about.

And your First Herrscher's power is the ability to control gravity, right?

When you were cloned, was the clone's brain malfunctioning?

At this moment, Chen Luo, who was kneeling on one knee, was not thinking about how to defeat Waite, but how to defeat him without killing him.

"Hey, you're the First Herrscher Welt, right? I'd like to ask you, do you know what the Herrscher of Reason means? Is gravity the true power of the Herrscher of Reason?" Chen Luo suddenly looked up and asked this question.

"What a superficial understanding! Manipulating gravity is merely one manifestation of my ability. My true ability is... is... what is it?" Welt, the Herrscher of Reason was about to mock Chen Luo, suddenly stammered for some reason.

What is my true ability... again?

"Tch." Chen Luo scoffed dismissively.

Then the countless threads that Chen Luo had already laid throughout the corridor came into view, revealing a black and red appearance, and instantly entangled the stunned Welt.

Of course, when using this move, Chen Luo also turned off his Honkai Terminator's finishing move.

Actually, Chen Luo originally prepared this move for Xing, because Chen Luo had never fought Xing before, so Chen Luo put in a lot of effort for it.

Otherwise, Chen Luo wouldn't have talked so much with Xing Fei, delaying the other party's actions.

But Chen Luo didn't expect that Xing would collapse before he could even exert his strength.

This is the invincible Lady Xing!

And now, the suddenly appearing First Herrscher Welt, is enjoying all the benefits.

Furthermore, because the opponent is Herrscher, the damage received is increased by 60%.

The damage calculation for the Honkai Terminator is that simple and straightforward.

The lower your position in the Honkai faction, the higher the total damage you will receive.

Increases damage dealt to Honkai Beasts and Militants by 100%, and increases damage dealt to Herrscher by 25%.

For special "Herrscher" like Welt, who are neither Honkai Beasts Militants nor Herrscher, the damage they receive is increased by 60%.

Speaking of which, even the Pseudo-Herrscher Yae Sakura only has 50% of the power, and Welt is even inferior to the Pseudo-Herrscher.

Under the combined erosion of the dual Herrscher Authority and Honkai energy, the small sphere in front of the opponent instantly shattered, and the gravity applied to Chen Luo was also broken.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chen Luo instantly disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Welt, and then he stabbed Walter in the abdomen with one hand.

"Ah!!!" Welt let out a violent scream.

When Chen Luo first saw his Herrscher Persona stab Yae Sakura in the stomach, he thought she was ruthless, but now he thinks it was probably one of the most suitable methods.

Stabbing someone in the hand or leg, even if you manage to stab them open, it won't necessarily incapacitate them. Stabbing someone in the chest, on the other hand, could potentially kill them outright.

Therefore, stabbing the stomach is the most suitable method.

Moreover, the distance from the abdomen to the limbs is almost the middle, meaning that this area is the most efficient and convenient transportation hub for invading and dominating other areas.

As the opponent's screams rang out, more and more threads wrapped around Welt's body. In addition to absorbing Honkai energy, the black and red threads also carried the power of the Herrscher of Corrosion.

The power of erosion can not only control machines but also beasts or humans, thus it can erode the body of the other party. When eroding the other party, it will inevitably have a physical effect on the other party and indirectly affect the soul.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to control his body is very effortless.

The Herrscher of Domination Authority and the Herrscher of Corrosion Authority are indeed a perfect match.

But just as Chen Luo had eroded half of his opponent's power, Chen Luo suddenly stopped.

"Is this thing really worth controlling?" Chen Luo suddenly fell into doubt. Now the other party has been half corrupted, becoming a half-doll like Ling.

"If the other party is really the Herrscher of Reason, then it's definitely worth it, but he's just a clone of the Herrscher of Reason. And a defective clone at that..." Chen Luo was really conflicted.

If you're talking about killing him, he is at least a combatant, and if you wanted to kill him, you would have just used the Honkai Terminator to kill him.

But if you say you're controlling him into a puppet, then you're actually letting him down a little.

Since becoming a puppeteer and acquiring Puppet Collection Vault, Chen Luo seems to have developed a strange collecting obsession.

At this moment, Chen Luo finally understood why his father had kept three sets of things: one set to touch, one set to display, and one set to seal.

Chen Luo's current Puppet Collection Vault only includes Yae Sakura. Even Ling doesn't count. Ling is only a half-doll and doesn't qualify for the Puppet Collection Vault, so she doesn't occupy one of the 999 slots.

As for Yae Sakura, if she were to beat up Welt—and I'm referring to the Welt —it would be a piece of cake.

Therefore, Waite to the Puppet Collection Vault would undoubtedly pollute the inventory.

"But if you say you'd turn him into a half-doll, he definitely won't listen."

Welt's situation is different from Ling's. Ling has a natural affinity for Chen Luo, and Chen Luo has no intention of controlling her. He only wants to maintain her existence, so he can be semi -Puppet Transformation.

"Forget it, let's just add it to the Puppet Collection Vault for now. If we're not satisfied, we can always kill it later. Anyway, once we're short one Puppet Collection Vault, we can just add another one immediately."

Ultimately, torn between his collecting obsession and his urgent need for combat power, Chen Luo chose combat power.

As Chen Luo made his decision, more black and red threads began to appear in the void, surrounding and entangling Welt in front of him.

Welt's screams gradually weakened amidst the endless entanglement. Just like Yae Sakura at the beginning, he was gradually bound into a cocoon. When he broke free of the cocoon, he would be a puppet again.

Besides turning the other person into a puppet, this cocoon can also be used for healing.

As for why this cocoon increases the healing effect, it's probably because making each doll causes considerable damage to the doll's body.

After all, if you think about it carefully, both the Herrscher Persona and Chen Luo's method of creating puppets involved first piercing the opponent's abdomen to render them incapable of movement, and then binding them tightly with strings to begin transforming them into puppets.

If a healing function isn't added, the doll might die right after the transformation.

Is this a case of demand determining supply?

"But this Xing..." After dealing with Welt, Chen Luo walked over to Xing, squatted down, and tapped her head with the blade of his sword.

"What should I do?" Chen Luo was still very troubled by this.

If Welt's replica has half the qualifications to be included in Chen Luo's Puppet Collection Vault, then this Xing really doesn't even have half the qualifications.

It's not that our invincible Grandma Xing is bad... well, she really is bad.

Killing her was out of the question, since wasting things is not a good habit.

Moreover, the invincible Grandpa Xing is an excellent source of material.

Time Ability... If I become a puppet master in the future and can mass-produce Time Ability puppets, then...

How about a time bomb?

Time Ability users, especially those with such weak Time Ability, are really hard to find.

"Then... let's Puppet Transformation." Chen Luo thought for a moment, then gently placed his right hand on the other person's neck.

The ability of the Herrscher of Domination is activated.

The other party is currently in a coma, so turning them into a puppet went smoothly. Although the other party showed a painful expression, it wasn't Chen Luo anyway.

Although the other party was indeed no match for me, it would still hurt a lot if they could have broken one or two ribs.

Therefore, Chen Luo felt absolutely no remorse.

There are differences between half-dolls. Can a 1% doll be the same as a 99% doll?

Ling's type is only about 5% of a doll. Chen Luo only transformed her into a half-doll while maintaining her existence to a minimum. His control over her is extremely limited.

As for this apricot, Chen Luo set a limit of 50% for her.

Chen Luo couldn't control the other person's thoughts to this extent, but he could make the other person Tsundere.

The mind is the other person's mind, but the body is Chen Luo's body, obeying Chen Luo's commands.

However, if the degree exceeds 50%, it will be easy for others to notice the abnormality.

Moreover, once it exceeds 50%, even if Chen Luo stops increasing it, the other party will gradually become Chen Luo's puppet over time. This is an irreversible process, so 50% is just right for someone who wants to control but doesn't want to completely control.

"Sigh..." Although he had acquired two dolls, Chen Luo was not happy at all.

If the quality of the dolls in Chen Luo's Puppet Collection Vault is at the level of Yae Sakura, then Chen Luo would certainly be happy.

But this time, the two dolls they received were both oddly shaped and deformed.

Especially after realizing his own power and detecting the degree of decay in Walter's body while modifying Welt, Chen Luo sighed even more.

This Welt clone is one of those mass-produced but not fully mass-produced items that were essentially wasted.

He has a lot of health problems.

After acquiring a combatant intended to be used as cannon fodder, Chen Luo still had to sacrifice a Honkai Energy Crystal to modify the opponent's body.

What kind of unprofitable business is this?

Chen Luo sighed as he threw a piece of Honkai Crystal onto the other person's body.

If the Honkai Crystal given to Yae Sakura was to replenish her nutrients, then the Honkai Crystal given to Welt was simply to heal his injuries.

Cocolia's cloning technology is truly indescribable, at least in Chen Luo's eyes.

Chen Luo's furniture project raised all of Chen Luo puppeteer skills to the proficiency level, including human body modification.

With the added boost from the Mei Biu Si's Scalpel gift that increases his favorability, Chen Luo can now be considered a senior researcher from the Previous Era.

So Chen Luo could only sigh and use his powers to perform surgery on Welt.

Damn it, that's a huge loss.

"After we've modified this Welt, we'll infiltrate Anti-Entropy as a spy, try to get him into a high position, and then wipe out Anti-Entropy in one fell swoop. This is the result of foolish mortals daring to resist Honkai," Chen Luo muttered under his breath.

[Ding! Honkai faction item exchange discount is 9.2%]

Well, there's another piece of news: the favorability rating is starting to increase more slowly.

In the past, just saying nice things was enough, but now you have to do something concrete to get a discount.

Life is full of disappointments, but Chen Luo always felt that he had experienced them all.
