Paimon, Known in the Jianghu as Little Chen Luo
Bubble Wrap Master] and Phoenix Chick [There's Always a Way Out] – possessing either one is enough to conquer the world.
Chen Luo always felt that he was definitely cut out for a scientific research career.
Is it possible that Chen Luo could handcraft a warp drive in the Stone Age?
Well, even if it succeeds, it would probably take several decades or even centuries to work on it.
After all, while the saying "barefoot people are not afraid of those wearing shoes" and "There's Always a Way Out" are quite compatible skills, and it seems to be a conceptual skill, skills also have their limits.
While researching warp engines may not be the limit of this skill, building a warp engine by hand is quite difficult.
With decades or even centuries to go, Chen Luo could have used that time to complete his missions and might have already extracted dozens of warp engines from the Primogem.
Of course, it is undeniable that this skill is indeed powerful, especially when used in scientific research.
But shouldn't I be a warrior?
As Chen Luo examined the skills in his skill list, he suddenly began to doubt himself.
Chen Luo actually thought this skill was quite suitable for Mobius, because even without this skill, Mobius usually went barefoot.
Chen Luo is referring to the Memory Mei Biu Si in the game's storyline.
Sigh, is there any possibility that Chen Luo shared this skill with the Memory Mei Biu Si, which is why he was barefoot?
A brilliant idea suddenly flashed through Chen Luo's mind.
"What are you thinking about? Come over here for a massage." Lisa, wearing high heels, called out to Chen Luo as she walked out of the workshop.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
Quest Reward: 50 Primogem.
"Oh, here it comes." Chen Luo was unusually enthusiastic after receiving the skill.
"Mmm... Ah... Hmm..."
Chen Luo gently massaged Aunt Lisa's back with both hands.
Under Chen Luo's magical hands, Aunt Lisa couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.
No one could remain completely calm under Chen Luo's massage! No one!
Although this is nothing to be proud of.
"Is Sister Lisa feeling good?" Chen Luo had gone to great lengths to achieve a major success or a super success.
Chen Luo has now figured out some of the tricks of the trade: the more satisfied the customer is, the higher the chance of a great success or triggering an event.
Of course, there are several other conditions that need to be met. Besides exceptional customer satisfaction, there is another important factor: if the customer's expectations for completing the task are not high when the task is assigned, but their satisfaction after completing the task is very high, then the probability of a critical hit is higher.
"Hmm... Ah... Very... Satisfied." Some misleading words escaped Aunt Lisa's lips.
But Chen Luo was quite satisfied with this, because it meant that the other party was also satisfied.
The more satisfied Chen Luo is, the higher his chances of achieving great success.
"... Okay, that's all." Chen Luo clapped his hands after massaging the other person for about 20 minutes.
"How are you feeling now? Is my massage therapy for middle-aged people suitable for you?" Chen Luo said smugly.
"It's very comfortable, even better if you didn't mention 'middle-aged man.' Your massage skills are much better than that massage chair. If I could, I'd really like to turn you into a massage chair," Aunt Lisa said lazily, uttering something quite terrifying.
While scaring Chen Luo, Lisa couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Have I really become a middle-aged person?
[Ding! Mission complete. Mission a great success, Primogem reward doubled]
"Sister Lisa, are you sure? I remember the massager also has a buttock massage function, right?" Chen Luo raised an eyebrow.
Chen Luo very satisfied that Aunt Lisa's mission would be a great success, but he was not happy that Aunt Lisa had scared him.
Do you think I'm a child?
Therefore, Chen Luo used this powerful weapon to fight back.
Although Chen Luo claimed to be giving a full-body massage, the massage itself was quite standard and conventional.
That's true, what legitimate massage parlor or hospital would massage a woman's buttocks? That would be indecent.
Of course, exceptions exist.
Aunt Lisa's situation is clearly not a special case.
Aunt Lisa didn't take Chen Luo's seemingly flirtatious remarks to heart.
Ha, just a mere 17-year-old brat.
"Alright, the massage is over, you should go now," Lisa said coldly, still lying on the bed without even getting up.
"Sister Lisa, don't you think you're like a heartless woman who plays with the feelings of innocent young men and then discards them when they're no longer of use?" Chen Luo said with a hint of sadness in his voice.
"Well, just think of it this way: your massage was so good that I suddenly felt like taking a nap. What, are you planning to take a nap with me?" Sister Lisa said lazily, even yawning at the end.
"What do you mean my massage is too good? I had no idea my massage had a hypnotic effect. It was clearly Sister Lisa who wanted to sleep." Chen Luo said, indicating that he would not take the blame.
To be honest, Chen Luo was quite tempted by Aunt Lisa's suggestion.
"So if you're too scared, then hurry up and leave. Go to the Knights of Favonius. Knowing Jean's personality, those alchemy books you wanted should already be ready for you. Or do you prefer watching me sleep to practicing alchemy?"
"Oh, I see. Then I'll head to the Knights of Favonius first. See you tomorrow, Aunt Lisa." Chen Luo's expression changed instantly upon hearing about the alchemy books.
What woman is more alluring than knowledge?
"Heh, if there's something to ask, it's Sister Lisa; if there's nothing to ask, it's Aunt Lisa. Do you know that those alchemy books you wanted were taken from the library I manage? After all, I'm the librarian in charge of knowledge." Lisa sat up with difficulty and rolled her eyes at Chen Luo.
"Oh, really?"
"Of course. Or rather, if you want to borrow alchemy or magic books, it's more useful to come to me than to find Qin. Now you regret it, don't you? You regret changing your mind so quickly." Aunt Lisa stood up and pinched Chen Luo's cheek as she spoke.
"I don't regret it, but I just want to know if it's too late to apologize now?"
"It's too late, little one. Oh well, I'll let it go for the massage you just had, I won't punish you. If you still want to learn alchemy tomorrow, just come to my house. Or you can go to Qin's office, you might run into me there," Lisa said after stretching.
"Is it only in the library that I can't find it?"
"Paid leave, paid leave. Three days of paid leave, how can we waste them? Of course, if you remember when we go to the bar, I'll bring you a couple of books too," Lisa said.
"Lisa, Lisa. I'll be going now."
"Let's go, let's go, I should go to sleep too. Remember to lock the door when you leave." Lisa waved and walked straight into the bedroom.
"Sigh, is it really necessary to trust me so much?" Chen Luo sighed helplessly, then left Lisa's house, locking the door from the inside.
After Chen Luo left Lisa's house, he was spotted by a brown-haired girl who happened to be passing by.
The other person was probably a neighbor or something. It was quite surprising that Chen Luo came out of Lisa's house, since Lisa rarely brought people back, especially men.
Then a strange flame ignited in the other person's eyes.
A feeling known as gossip arises spontaneously.
Chen Luo glanced at the other person, sensed their strange emotions but ignored them, and left.
The beautiful woman Chen Luo seemed to recognize, who was a little older than the girl, was someone else, anyway, a famous NPC in the game.
It's the one who asked the Acting Grand Master Jean, to help find the cat.
Never mind, it's not a big problem anyway, I should go to the Knights of Favonius.
As Chen Luo thought about it, he slightly raised his body, his smooth feet slightly off the ground, and flew towards the Knights of Favonius.
Chen Luo discovered that the skill of being barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes not only makes Chen Luo's feet less susceptible to injury, but also has a built-in purification function.
Even after walking through mud, you're still as clean as if you'd just taken a bath.
Maybe we won't need to soak our feet anymore.
Chen Luo's unusual behavior naturally attracted the attention of the beautiful woman from before, as well as the passersby around him.
emmm...
Chen Luo came up with a brilliant idea after only two seconds of thinking.
"Snap!" First, the ability of the Herrscher of Knowledge was used to influence those around them.
"Whoosh!" Next, shrink yourself down.
The special abilities of the body of the Herrscher of Knowledge include becoming larger or smaller, and transforming between reality and illusion.
This is why the Herrscher of Knowledge doesn't exhibit Man-made Collapse, is sold at the same price as Man-made Collapse, mainly due to its functionality.
Herrscher of Knowledge could shrink to the size of sitting on Chen Luo's shoulder, there was no reason why Chen Luo himself couldn't shrink as well. Thus, a cute little creature with three heads appeared on the spot.
Chen Luo's image was created based on rigorous measurements... well, actually, it was made according to Paimon's body proportions.
There's no reason why people wouldn't be particularly surprised to see Paimon, but they would be surprised to see Chen Luo like this.
Paimon, known in the martial arts world as Chen Luo.
Or Chen Luo, known in the martial arts world as Little Paimon.
That's pretty much the gist of it.
However, this changed Chen Luo's art style from that of an ordinary person to something more like anime.
However, as Chen Luo continued his journey toward the Knights of Favonius, he discovered another problem: although he didn't feel tired while flying, the distance seemed to increase dramatically for Chen Luo, whose body had shrunk several times over.
Moreover, Chen Luo's idea of something less attention-grabbing did not come true, or rather, it became more attention-grabbing.
That's not right. Why is it that Paimon can be relatively unnoticed, while Chen Luo attracts a lot of attention?
Chen Luo then looked at himself, in another special relationship slot besides his friend slot.
Originally, there was only one Herrscher of Knowledge in the family group, but after it became Thousand-Man Herrscher, another group of puppets was added, which included five puppets.
This means that if Chen Luo wanted to buy the skills of these five puppets, he could only get a maximum discount of 50%.
One of them is the skill of that Kero doll number 4.
[Presence Control] (Level A)
Price: 2880 (Original price 6000)
48% off
All these dolls are 50% off the base price. The extra 0.2 is probably because they just casually threw in a Gnosis.
To be honest, it's really easy to raise the favorability rating of these dolls.
For example, Welt's favorability rating has dropped to 40%.
Sakura's discount has reached 43%.
"Forget it, it's not worth spending 2880 Primogem to buy this skill." Seeing how expensive the skill was, Chen Luo waved his hand and decided not to buy it.
Actually, there are other ways to acquire this skill.
For example, killing Xiao Ke'er.
Don't forget, Chen Luo's first S-rank Talent was the Herrscher of Domination, and the Herrscher of Herrscher of Domination's powers are the ability to control a thousand people and the ability to plunder.
This ability, after being modified into a power and fixed as a talent, has also been enhanced, or rather, popularized in all aspects. It can not only plunder the powers of Herrscher, but also the talents of other people.
It's possible that, apart from talents Herrscher that are perfectly suited for it, when plundering other talents, you need to kill the other party first before you can plunder them, and the results of the plundering may not be very satisfactory.
Moreover, they would turn their victims into their puppets before plundering them.
It doesn't matter whether the doll is made using the skills of Thousand-Man Herrscher or a normal puppeteer.
If you're lucky, the talent you steal might remain completely unchanged.
But if you're unlucky, you might only be able to plunder a tiny fraction of their talent.
For example, if Chen Luo controlled Mobius into his puppet and then used the Honkai Terminator to kill him, he might get a slightly better S-rank Talent with more side effects than he does now, if he's lucky.
If you're unlucky, you might only get one chance to be resurrected, and that's it after you've used it all.
Furthermore, since Chen Luo has never plundered talent, he is not sure whether the talent he plundered needs to be conceptualized.
Therefore, it would be extremely unprofitable to plunder those with great potential in this way. Wouldn't it be better to use them as henchmen?
