Otto's Terrifying Obsession
Why does this person look at me with such fanaticism?
It looked just like the eyes of someone who had been searching for a long time and finally saw what they had been looking forward to.
Otto suddenly felt his Soul Steel Body getting cold.
Chapter 163 Otto's Terrifying Obsession
"Long time no see, Chen Luo. This is my adjutant Rita. And this is Bishop Otto of Schicksal." Durandal introduced her people to Chen Luo.
"Good evening, both of you. I am Chen Luo, an ordinary Traveler who is currently traveling to various worlds and also helps others fulfill their wishes on the side," Chen Luo introduced himself to the two of them.
As he said this, Chen Luo glanced at Otto.
Well, Chen Luo welcomes Otto as a guest, but it's a bit inappropriate that he appears with Durandal.
Actually Chen Luo really wanted to give Durandal a little spoiler.
Of course, I don't mean spoiling the whole plot. I'm thinking of asking her if she wants to find her biological parents or something. Chen Luo can give her a 10% discount.
But if Otto were here, things would be a bit complicated.
But it's not a big problem, since Durandal can't possibly always be with Otto.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Chen Luo." Rita bowed slightly to Chen Luo with great politeness.
"Hello." As the eldest of the three, Otto still had to stand in front of the two and shake hands with Chen Luo.
Otto stood behind the two of them just now mainly to prevent them from being ganged up on after entering the bar.
Otto heard from Durandal that Chen Luo had the ability to pull people into a special space where there was no signal. If this bar was also like that, then even if he came in his Soul Steel body, there would still be some danger.
However, it seems that the other party has no ill intentions, but has some ulterior motives.
"Bishop Otto, it's a pleasure to meet you in person. Welcome to Zero Bar." As Chen Luo shook Otto's hand, he subconsciously used the furniture control.
Chen Luo knew that Otto would be on guard in such an unfamiliar and potentially dangerous place.
But if the opponent uses Soul Steel Body... well, no matter how you look at it, they'd be completely outmatched by Chen Luo in every aspect.
Chen Luo's Furniture Mastery could cause Otto's Soul Steel Body to instantly turn against him, and might even temporarily imprison Otto within the soul steel.
Chen Luo's ability Herrscher of Knowledge can also interfere with Otto's consciousness transmission to some extent.
Chen Luo's Herrscher of Corrosion will deliver a fatal blow to this.
In this way, Chen Luo might have another puppet named Otto.
Even if the opponent is protected by Durandal and Rita, it's still a joke in the War Domain.
In the War Domain, any assistant, leader, or chief of staff who excels at escaping is a deadly threat.
Although Chen Luo couldn't guarantee that he could achieve his goal 100%, the probability was at least 50%. Unfortunately, their first meeting was at the Zero Bar.
The Zero Bar's damage-ignoring property works not only on customers but also on Chen Luo.
Of course, Chen Luo could also remove the mutual harm permission between himself and Otto, but not remove the permissions for Durandal and Rita.
In this way, even if Chen Luo did this or that to Otto in front of Durandal and Rita, they wouldn't be able to stop him.
But Chen Luo didn't want to ruin his own reputation.
Why can Chen Luo's Zero Bar allow all sorts of strange and eccentric people to coexist peacefully and drink together?
Besides the delicious wine and food, another important reason is that no one here can harm or even affect the other.
While Otto was valuable for robbery, he ruined his reputation for it, with far-reaching consequences.
"What would you all like to drink? Make yourselves at home, don't be shy," Chen Luo asked dutifully as he walked back behind the bar.
"Any drink will do," Otto said casually.
"Just a cup of black tea will do," Rita said.
"Then give me a cup of coffee," Durandal said.
"..."
Damn it, three people can't even come up with a single commission.
Do you really think this is your home?
Chen Luo forced himself not to have a cold expression while serving the three of them their drinks.
These three people are all potential clients, and from the perspective of long-term investment alone, Chen Luo would not refuse them because of 0.3 Primogem.
However, in this bar, if you can't offer Primogem that's worthless to you, then you'll have to offer something more valuable to you, because there's no such thing as a free lunch.
You're unwilling to offer the Primogem, and you're also unwilling to pay, which puts me in a difficult position.
Oh, right, except for Durandal.
After all, Chen Luo and Durandal were friends.
Hmm, let's exclude Rita, since she's Durandal's friend.
"Durandal, you haven't been to the bar in so long. What have you been busy with? You haven't even had time to have a cup of tea?" Chen Luo asked after placing the things Durandal wanted in front of Durandal.
"Just like you heard that day, the Schicksal Headquarters was robbed. Besides the destruction of a few hangars and the smashing of some worthless facilities, three of the most precious things were also lost." Durandal said slowly, turning the coffee cup in her hand, while staring intently at Chen Luo, trying to read something from his face.
"Oh, is it that bad? Have they caught the murderer?" Chen Luo asked in surprise.
"Not yet. That person's theft traces were handled very cleanly, and it's impossible to find any clues at all," said Sister Ta, who is invincible but always manages to make mistakes.
"Moreover, among the lost items is something very important to His Excellency the Bishop... His Excellency the Bishop, what are you doing?" Rita glanced Otto while explaining, only to find that Otto was staring blankly in one direction.
"I saw someone I knew," Otto said.
"An acquaintance? That's... Fu Hua?" Rita followed Otto's gaze and looked in that direction, then saw an acquaintance.
"Fu Hua?" Durandal, who was talking to Chen Luo, was also taken aback when she heard this familiar name, and then looked at the location where the Herrscher of Knowledge was.
"Old friend, since we've met at a bar, why don't you come over for a drink?" Otto called out in the direction of the Herrscher of Knowledge.
Otto wasn't too surprised that he would run into Fu Hua at the bar. After all, even his granddaughter had been to a bar, along with K423 and her friends. It wasn't impossible that Fu Hua would join in as well.
What Otto didn't expect was why Fu Hua hadn't informed him about the bar incident even a little bit in advance.
This wasn't because Otto was confident in his friendship with Fu Hua, but rather because of their shared interests.
"Hmm?" The Herrscher of Knowledge had been called out by Otto, turned her head to look at Otto.
The Herrscher of Knowledge naturally entered from Otto and his group, and saw Otto immediately, but Herrscher of Knowledge did not speak at the beginning.
After all, Otto was no friend to the Herrscher of Knowledge. The fact that the Herrscher of Knowledge could refrain from punching him in the face was already a great Herrscher of Knowledge to Chen Luo.
"Are you talking about me? Do I know you?" The Herrscher of Knowledge turned around, looking at the three people with a displeased expression.
"...Sorry, I mistook you for someone else," Otto said after a moment of silence.
Although the two look almost identical, Otto really finds it hard to imagine that Fu Hua could say such a thing in this tone.
Although this person looks like Fu Hua, their entire demeanor seems to suggest that I am not Fu Hua.
Durandal and Rita remained silent.
Even without the other party's denial, if the other party had spoken first, Durandal and Rita wouldn't have thought that the other party was Fu Hua.
"May I ask who you are?" Otto asked tentatively.
Otto felt that the person in front of him looked familiar, wondering if it was because the person looked very much like Fu Hua.
Otto's intuition told him that Otto other party should have some connection with Fu Hua.
"Me? My name is Hua, a warrior of the Fire Moth. What's wrong? Is there something you need?" the Herrscher of Knowledge asked.
"Fire Moth?" Otto's brow twitched.
Otto is no stranger to this name, is he?
Otto was in the Void Archive... Back when the Void Archive existed, I saw this term quite often in the Void Archive.
The United Nations, established in the Previous Civilization Era to combat the Honkai, is the largest anti- Honkai organization in human history.
The Void Archive was also created by the Fire Moth.
Otto is also very envious of some of the special technologies in the Fire Moth.
Otto had researched fusion surgery, and for example, Theresa was created using this technique, but Otto's technique was not yet mature.
According to the Void Archive, in the Previous Civilization Era, the last thirteen Flame-Chaser were all capable of tearing apart Herrscher with their bare hands.
Unfortunately, the last few Herrscher of the Previous Era could not be defeated by force alone.
Of course, the most important thing is that Otto vaguely remembers that he learned from Fu Hua's memories that Fu Hua was called Hua in the Previous Era and was also a warrior of the Fire Moth.
"Yes, is there a problem?" Faced with the doubt in Otto's words, the Herrscher of Knowledge frowned unhappily.
Would Herrscher of Knowledge lie to you?
Aren't we Chinese warriors like Fire Moth?
"I've never heard Durandal mention that this bar has the ability to connect different timelines. I've only heard Theresa say that this bar can connect different worlds." Otto turned his gaze to Chen Luo.
After learning that Theresa had also been to the bar, Otto wrote Theresa a letter. Theresa, still holding the letter, angrily confronted Chen Luo.
Chen Luo simply told her to wait two days before telling Otto the truth, and Theresa did just that.
"Sigh, didn't Theresa tell you? I remember Theresa should have known," Chen Luo said, stroking his chin thoughtfully.
"So this person really is a warrior of the Fire Moth, a being from 50,000 years ago?" Otto's gaze towards Hua held an even more special meaning.
"Well, how should I put it? If you had come 10 minutes earlier, you could have seen Doctor Mobius from the Previous Civilization Era. One of the two greatest scientists in the Previous Civilization Era, Doctor Mobius who was on par with Mebius." Chen Luo didn't directly answer Otto's question, but Chen Luo also cooperated with the Herrscher of Knowledge to cover for him.
However, to be fair, the Herrscher of Knowledge has already created several alt accounts.
In front of Kiana and the others, the Herrscher of Knowledge is Fu Hua from the future.
Before Mobius, the Herrscher of Knowledge was merely a stranger, at best a counterpart from Different World.
In front of Otto and the others, she disguised herself Fire Moth.
But in front of Chen Luo, she was merely a simple Herrscher of Knowledge.
Is this considered a quadruple spy operation?
Like father, like daughter.
Chen Luo is a five-times spy, and he has a daughter who is a four-times spy.
"A strange bunch of people." The Herrscher of Knowledge muttered to the group before continuing to snatch the little fox's fried tofu.
Hmm, it's almost cold, and the other person hasn't finished eating yet.
It seems I really need to help myself.
"Manager, I'd like to ask if it's possible to distort the timeline of this world by altering events from Previous Era?" Otto had almost forgotten why he came to this bar in the first place.
Otto had only one thought in his mind right now.
Alas, if Theresa had remembered to explain this matter in her letter, she wouldn't be in such a rush now without having made any plans.
At the very least, you should leave a good impression on the store manager.
"What do you want to do?" Chen Luo looked at Otto with some wariness.
"I just wanted to ask. I don't want to reveal any information when I talk to Doctor Mobius, which might lead to some changes in this world." Otto took a deep breath to calm himself down.
"I see. Sure, of course, why not? Or rather, there's already a successful example. After Durandal left Changkong City, I met the Herrscher of Corrosion from 50,000 years ago, and was surprised to find that she actually recognized me, and that she didn't go mad because of a certain item I gave her. Of course, I can't go into details." Chen Luo revealed a bit of information.
"So that means that if conditions allow, it's really possible to travel to the past and change history?" Otto's eyes were filled with a hint of fanaticism.
"Wait, what do you want to do?" Chen Luo was slightly startled when he saw Otto's eyes, which were filled with a hint of madness and fanaticism.
"Let me tell you, traveling between different worlds is strictly forbidden. At least without my permission, even if you have the other party's consent, you cannot go to their world with them or pass your things to them so they can take them back to their own world," Chen Luo said immediately.
Perhaps the bar itself shares Chen Luo's thoughts, not wanting the world to change drastically because of one person, so it is very strict about this aspect.
After all, what if someone with a moment of madness brought something like the T-virus into the world of an ordinary person? That would be...
"And you also need to understand one thing: sometimes it's not that you don't want to change the future, but that the future definitely won't change. You understand the butterfly effect, right?"
