As a result, that poor kid, Waite, ended up dragging it out for several days.

The Herrscher of Corrosion Authority to control all Anti-Entropy mechs, including the close-fitting mechs around Cocolia.

The Herrscher of Domination Authority to control and control Kolya himself.

If Chen Luo had acquired the Herrscher of Knowledge ability earlier, he could have added another feather to the other party's head.

Even with only two Herrscher Authority, if Waite wanted to fight Cocolia, wouldn't that be like fighting a chick?

Although Cocolia is incredibly powerful among ordinary people, and might even be able to hold her own against some ordinary Honkai Beasts, Waite Herrscher clone, and Chen Luo even modified his body structure.

If you can't win this, you might as well just restart.

However, Chen Luo didn't feel that controlling Cocolia would bring much benefit.

Cocolia herself is not very strong. Although her Honkai Energy Adaptation will be greatly improved after she is transformed into a clone of the Herrscher of Domination, she is still no match for Waite and Sakura in terms of combat power.

Although becoming Chen Luo's puppet may not seem to offer any obvious benefits, it is a rare and precious opportunity for the people of the Honkai World.

Xiao Ke'er, that Kero, didn't enjoy this benefit because the main world doesn't have Honkai energy.

But the Honkai World is different.

They were all transformed into Herrscher dolls, becoming part of the Thousand-Man Herrscher. To say that she could be easily Honkai and killed by the Honkai is like telling a fish that it might drown.

While it cannot be said that they are completely immune to Honkai energy erosion, their Honkai Energy Adaptation has definitely been greatly improved.

However, we shouldn't have too high expectations for Cocolia's combat strength.

Cocolia's control over Anti-Entropy is only so-so for now.

From Cocolia's perspective, Tesla, Einstein, and Welt Yang, who is currently teaching at the St. Freya Academy, are all considerable threats. When the time is right, the three of them could kill Cocolia at any moment.

Well, it's a pity Cocolia doesn't know.

Moreover, after becoming the Herrscher of Corrosion, all the mechs fell into Chen Luo's hands. Whether or not there was a leader was not really a very important matter. If Chen Luo wanted to, Chen Luo could instantly support a Himeko to become the leader of Anti-Entropy.

The Reverse Merchants started out with mechs and also relied on mechs for combat. Without mechs, what can they use to fight Chen Luo?

Silver bullets?

Sorry, that thing's program was the first to be corrupted by the Herrscher of Corrosion Authority.

The Herrscher of Reason? How about the Honkai Terminator?

However, while Cocolia has value as a base, it doesn't mean she has no value at all.

At least after turning Cocolia into a doll, I don't have to worry about Cocolia causing trouble anymore.

With the plot already messed up once, if Cocolia were to go to Singapore to detonate the Serenity Gem again, it's uncertain whether Fu Hua could successfully stop them.

Therefore, the greatest value of reclaiming Cocolia is preventing Cocolia from causing trouble.

It's a very subtle value indeed.

Cocolia, you've done so many bad things!

But at least Chen Luo gained a sense of satisfaction from saving millions of people from a future crisis.

Oh, right.

Chen Luo suddenly remembered.

"If I hadn't thought of Cocolia, I would have almost forgotten about Mei's father. It seems that Raiden Ryoma was imprisoned because he was framed by Cocolia, right? I'll ask Raiden Mei later if she wants to get her father out." Chen Luo suddenly thought of another possible mission.

"Mei, you don't want your father to stay in prison forever, do you?"

Thinking about it this way, Cocolia isn't entirely without value after all.

"Right, since that's the case, could we try to get a three-star or four-star quest from Cocolia? Like bringing Seele back from the Sea of Quantum." Chen Luo suddenly realized.

Cocolia is a rather awkward person.

She would show great tenderness and care in front of homeless orphans. Because she herself had not had enough to eat when she was young, she was resentful that the orphanage did not receive enough subsidies due to corruption in the country, leaving the orphans hungry.

When he was in the military, he would send money back to the orphanage every month and felt guilty for pointing a gun at innocent people.

She loves her "children" and is terrified of losing them. She is willing to do anything to save the children in the orphanage.

This wasn't Cocolia's disguise, but rather came from Cocolia's true feelings.

However, this guy is also the culprit who directly caused the Third Honkai Outbreak and the potential Singapore Great Honkai in order to control the Apostles of God and study the Herrscher.

When the opportunity to study the Herrscher is presented, they are willing to "harm" even their own children in order to capture, study the Herrscher and the Honkai.

It's very difficult to describe her simply as hypocritical.

But one thing is certain.

This thing is a sheep you can fleece!

Remember to go find Cocolia when you get back.

Chen Luo felt that the request to rescue Seele from the quantum realm was worth at least a three-star request for Cocolia.

[Lord... Ko... Ah, I've seen... someone, do you... need... help?]

Uh, what is this guy even talking about?

Chen Luo felt a headache coming on as he listened to the sounds coming from the puppet connection.

Chen Luo can communicate with these puppets through quantum communication. The previous Herrscher of Domination Authority could do this, and now that the Herrscher Authority have been fixed as talents, it is still possible to do so.

Moreover, the distance between these quantum communication devices can be extremely long, even across an entire Earth.

Perhaps because the Honkai Impact 3rd World and the Teyvat Continent are within the same large world, Cocolia can communicate with Chen Luo through this strange quantum communication. However, because the distance between them is too great, with countless World Bubble and Different World in between, the sound is somewhat intermittent.

The distance was simply too great, or rather, the fact that this talent could be effective across so many Different World already surprised Chen Luo.

In addition to the effect of quantum communication, Chen Luo's puppeteer talent also has an effect.

For each additional summoned creature on your side, your total damage increases by 20%, stacking up to 5 times.

Chen Luo could feel that this effect was indeed working on him.

As for the poor quality of quantum communication signals... as Chen Luo's mental strength increases, the communicable length of such signals should increase.

After all, before becoming Herrscher of Knowledge and significantly improving his mental strength, Chen Luo couldn't even hear such intermittent signals.

If Chen Luo wasn't mistaken, what Cocolia was trying to say just now was:

[Master, I am Cocolia. I greet you. Is there any help you need?]

Perhaps...

[Shut up.]

Chen Luo only replied with those two words.

If there's anything wrong, it's better to have these puppets come to the bar to find Chen Luo. Trying to guess what they mean is torture for Chen Luo.

Chen Luo would rather call Aunt Lisa" sister" than suffer this kind of torment!

"Smack!" Lisa, who was conducting an experiment, suddenly pulled out a hand and slapped Chen Luo on the head.

"??? Aunt Lisa, why did you hit me?" Chen Luo was completely bewildered.

"... It's not unjust to hit you." That was all Aunt Lisa could say.

If you don't get beaten up, it's simply Heavenly Principles.

"Well, the experiment is almost done, it's time to take a break," Aunt Lisa said after stretching.

Lisa rarely studies something with such dedication.

Lisa's duties were twofold: first, to organize the vast collection of books in the library, and second, to ensure the supply of potions to the Knights of Favonius.

Aside from organizing the books and knowledge, Lisa would slack off whenever possible.

The task of preparing and replenishing the medicine was delegated to Hoffman and Swan by Kaeya, while Flora had Donna deliver the daily herbs.

"This level of serious research is probably the last time you researched the special heating vessel, right?" Lisa said with some emotion.

"A specially made heating vessel?" Chen Luo asked in confusion, then stole a glance at the consciousness of Void Archive, who was standing to the side.

Prometheus stood by from the beginning, recording the experiment. Although Prometheus could have recorded it without coming out, Prometheus seemed to prefer staying outside.

Chen Luo didn't mind, since no one else could see Prometheus anyway.

Sensing Chen Luo's thoughts, Prometheus immediately pulled up the data, data from the Genshin Impact game.

"A specially designed heating vessel, a bespoke creation with a design that the Mondstadt people cannot comprehend. It features delayed heating, semi-automatic ingredient dispensing, and limited heat preservation. This is a 'special piece of equipment' that Lisa built using a large budget and two weeks of work time in the Alchemy Workshop."

"So what's the purpose?" Chen Luo was a little confused.

What could possibly make Aunt Lisa, who's always trying to be lazy, spend so much time making something?

And it doesn't seem to be of any use.

"To brew the tea and keep it at its best while Lisa is organizing the books," Prometheus replied.

"..." Chen Luo was silent for a moment.

As expected of you, Rose Witch.

"Oh dear, it's a pity I didn't have time to bring back your beanbag chair, Kero. I'm so tired after doing research all day," said Aunt Lisa, sitting lazily in the chair.

"By the way, Kero, since you can quickly master any skill, do you know how to massage?" Suddenly, Aunt Lisa's eyes lit up.

"Of course I can do that, but there's something I need to clarify beforehand. My massage skills aren't something I learned after encountering a massage chair; I already knew them before. When I was volunteering at the hospital, I studied diligently how to use massage to relax and repair the body." Chen Luo 'Chen Luo professionalism as a volunteer allowed him to justify himself.

How good is Chen Luo's massage technique? All the patients who have experienced it say it's great, even Herrscher of Knowledge is no exception.

The Herrscher of Knowledge did suggest that Chen Luo give her another massage, but Chen Luo figured the Herrscher of Knowledge didn't need to relieve fatigue, so he refused.

"That would be great. Give me a massage. It's been a while since I've done this much research. Help me relax."

Even excellent mages need to maintain their health, after all, health is the foundation of everything.

However, after Aunt Lisa chose to become a librarian, she basically began a life of laziness and slacking off. Where would she find so much time to exercise?

Taking a break is fun, and taking a break all the time is even more fun.

"Of course you can. Middle-aged people like Sister Lisa are indeed prone to osteoporosis and other problems. I happen to have some calcium tablets here. Sister Lisa, remember to take your medicine on time. It can effectively solve the problem of osteoporosis." Chen Luo walked up to Aunt Lisa and said with concern.

Then he took out the calcium tablets he had scavenged in the pharmaceutical area of Changkong City from his backpack.

In the apocalypse, medicine is the most important thing, so after Chen Luo saved those children, there must have been times when he passed by a pharmacy and looted everything.

Calcium tablets are such a product.

Just now, when Chen Luo took out the calcium tablets, he saw their effects using the Eye of Discernment he bought from Liu Wenxuan.

At least it's not a counterfeit or substandard product, and the effect is quite good.

"..." Although Chen Luo was concerned about her, Lisa... couldn't smile at all.

Chen Luo didn't mention Auntie at all, and even called Lisa" sister," but Chen Luo words implied that he was referring to Lisa as Auntie.

"What do you mean by middle-aged? I'm not even 30 yet." Aunt Lisa forced a smile as she lightly stepped on Chen Luo's instep with her high heel.

"It hurts." Chen Luo immediately pulled his foot back.

Okay, it doesn't hurt.

Because of the saying "barefoot people are not afraid of those wearing shoes," Chen Luo's feet are almost immune to most attacks. Not to mention being stepped on by high heels, even if he steps on a mountain of knives or lava, Chen Luo's feet will remain unharmed.

"Who told you not to wear shoes?" Aunt Lisa sneered.

This is why Aunt Lisa didn't step on Chen Luo's foot hard just now, because Chen Luo was barefoot on the floor for some reason.

Should Lisa be happy that Chen Luo has such confidence in the cleanliness of his laboratory?

"It's not because there's a small skill in the experiment that requires being barefoot," Chen Luo muttered.

[There's Always a Way Out]: When you're on your way, as long as you have the courage to face everything, even if you encounter the most difficult things or the strongest enemies, you may find that tiny turning point.

Chen Luo discovered that as long as he was barefoot, he could trigger this passive skill no matter where he was.

Moreover, the saying "There's Always a Way Out" doesn't mean it's only useful in battle, because difficulties don't necessarily mean life-threatening situations; they could also be some kind of problem.

For example... the difficulties encountered in the research.
