And coincidentally, Chen Luo thought the same thing.

So Chen Luo still only has 4 real dolls, no, he added Cocolia, so that makes 5.

Otherwise, Chen Luo could go to Changkong City to find some high-level Honkai Beasts like the Emperor Honkai to use as puppets.

When 1000 Emperor Honkai, I ask you, can you withstand it?

Therefore, in a world with elite individuals who surpass everything, elites are king.

For example, if Chen Luo had 13 Kevin... ptooey, Mobius, how could he possibly develop?

So you call yourself the Thirteenth Herrscher?

Isn't it said that a pink face is actually a dark one?

Watch me cut her open, see the color, and let everyone get excited!

Chapter 228 A Day Trip to the Elysian Realm

"The Doctor, no, Mr. Chen Luo, now that you've come all this way to the World Serpent, would you like to visit the Elysian Realm?" After receiving a somewhat affirmative answer from Chen Luo, the Grey Serpent nodded and asked.

Chen Luo's evaluation was quite fair, and it carried a hint of praise.

At least the other party acknowledged your path, which can be considered a gain.

After hearing Grey Serpent's words, Chen Luo glanced at the Herrscher of Knowledge who was fast asleep in his sea of consciousness and pondered for a moment.

"Elysian Realm? What's that? I don't know. Since it sounds like some strange place, I won't go," Chen Luo said.

What Elysian Realm? Am I that familiar with that place? Hmm, probably, maybe, somewhat... I'm quite familiar with it.

As for the Herrscher of Knowledge Recognition asking why he woke up to find himself gone from the World Serpent...

Chen Luo could only reply that the other person had slept for too long.

You slept until I left this Elysian Realm, can you blame me?

Right?

Although those Herrscher of Knowledge might notice something amiss, it's not a big problem. Herrscher of Knowledge all, children are easily attracted to other strange and unusual things.

At worst, we can just bring the Herrscher of Knowledge to beat up Otto, right?

The Herrscher of Knowledge was in charge of beating people up, while Chen Luo was in charge of clapping from the sidelines.

"Is that so? Well then. But I haven't been to the Elysian Realm lately either, and I don't know why that little one went Elysian Realm, and there's still no news of him after all this time. I wonder what happened..." Grey Serpent didn't say much about Chen Luo's rejection, and just continued talking to himself.

"..."

Upon hearing Grey Serpent's words, Chen Luo remembered that Ling had indeed not shown any reaction.

Logically speaking, if the other party went to see their sister, even if there was no reaction for a day or two, it has been 5 days now. Surely they wouldn't have completely forgotten about them, right? That would be too heartless.

He should at least come to the bar to see himself.

And that Mobius...

Chen Luo refers to the memory chip Mobius.

If Elysia, Raiden Mei's guide to the Elysian Realm, decides whether to appear before visitors based on whether they are beautiful girls, then Mobius accepts all comers.

Mobius has his own laboratory in the palace of the Elysian Realm, rather than residing permanently in the world of the Elysian Realm, which is made up of memories.

This makes it easier to reach visitors and then take them to do this or that.

Mobius has always been enthusiastic about this kind of thing, so no matter what, Mobius should have met Ling by now, right?

Even if it's Ling, she can't summon the Bar Door for various reasons, so it doesn't make sense that Mobius can't either.

Chen Luo would believe anyone who might forget about bars, but Mobius the only one who shouldn't forget how to enjoy a bar.

Mobius is a master at running a bar, and he can even issue Chen Luo a four-star commission worth 1200 Primogem just by his own will.

Those Herrscher of Knowledge cannot do this; they can only issue commissions when they are truly in a moment of whim. She cannot control herself from issuing commissions.

Because when the Herrscher of Knowledge tries to issue a mandate, they will always use Herrscher of Knowledge own abilities to some extent. And a mandate cannot be influenced by external forces, otherwise it cannot be formed.

Just like Chen Luo can't use the abilities of the Herrscher of Knowledge to modify other people's consciousness and make them issue commissions, so from the client's perspective, 10 Herrscher of Knowledge are not as good as one Venti, who can be said to be the worst client.

It's not that it's of poor quality, but rather that the opportunities to get a good deal are extremely rare.

Therefore, it was quite strange that Mobius, who was skilled at playing the rules of the bar, didn't come to the bar after Ling entered the Elysian Realm.

Was it because Mobius didn't have time to see Rin, or because he was a memory that prevented him from opening the bar?

This is a very important question.

"Hmm, I suddenly think the name 'Elysian Realm' sounds pretty good, so I've become interested in it." After thinking for a moment, Chen Luo finally said this to the Grey Serpent.

Chen Luo still couldn't let go of the Scarlet Hiyori Maru. What if Mobius soaked it in alcohol and drank it?

Even if Ling really ends up in Mobius's hands, Mobius most likely won't use her to make alcohol, but will instead use her for dissection experiments, which would be even more serious.

So in the end, I still have to go to the Elysian Realm.

At the same time, Chen Luo also glanced at his 10% discount.

Chen Luo's 10% discount is still valid, and it will disappear completely in two days.

If you take this time to the Elysian Realm Bliss, you might have some unexpected surprises.

Chen Luo was quite interested in many of the Flame-Chasers' skills, but not to the point where he absolutely had to buy them.

Chen Luo is now a member of the Fire Moth faction, so he can purchase all of the Flame-Chasers' skills, but the problem is that skills purchased through the faction do not count towards the discount.

Even Himeko wouldn't buy something at the original price.

Chen Luo knew that he currently possessed a bit too many S-rank Talent, but who could refuse to have newer abilities?

As Chen Luo met more and more people, the requests he received became increasingly bizarre.

If Chen Luo doesn't diversify his abilities, he might not be able to complete these tasks completely.

For example, Chen Luo has no clue about the tasks of reviving Kallen and saving Seele in Bronya.

Although reviving Kallen would allow Otto to directly enter the Previous Civilization Era, and then revive him after he has been asleep for 50,000 years.

The problem is that Chen Luo is not comfortable letting Otto develop like this for 50,000 years.

Otto was a scientist whose abilities were not much inferior to those of May and Mobius.

Although Otto often caused trouble, Otto scientific research talent was even more terrifying than Otto management talent.

Another issue is rescuing Seele from the Sea of Quantum; Chen Luo Luodao doesn't know how to get there yet.

Perhaps we could go back and look for the Second Divine Key, the one that Vill-V transformed into a locomotive.

It's no wonder that Vill-V was kicked out of the ranks of the creators of the Divine Key. How did she even think of making the Second Divine Key into a locomotive?

And that Divine Key that was transformed into a satellite.

Hmm, I guess it's just a difference in philosophies.

Among these Flame-Chasers, what Chen Luo particularly craved were the marks of Mobius, if they were really like the ones depicted in the game.

Mobius's markings were all designed for summoned creatures, and each one made Chen Luo's mouth water.

At least on Mobius's exchange list, these imprints can indeed be purchased, but Chen Luo is not so sure about the effects of being granted these imprints after going to the Elysian Realm.

As a puppeteer, Chen Luo's compatibility with Mobius's mark is extremely high. Besides Mobius's mark, Chen Luo feels that the most powerful one is Aponia.

Aponia is not only huge, but her abilities are also outrageous.

"Raven, come in," Grey Serpent suddenly called out to the door.

Although the soundproofing in this conference room is very good, there is still a limit to how good soundproofing can be.

Upon hearing the sound, the Raven pushed open the door and entered. Naturally, it first glanced at Chen Luo and was relieved to find that Chen Luo seemed to have no injuries or anything, and instead looked quite relaxed.

"What's wrong? Is something the matter?" Raven asked Grey Serpent.

"Your mission is complete. The reward has already been placed at your room door. Inside are some gems and works of art that you acquired by chance. They are quite valuable, but you'd better have a professional appraiser appraise them."

"Received." Raven nodded happily.

After showing Chen Luo around the World Serpent for half a day, Raven finally received his reward.

"Then... what about the promised seaside villa?" Raven asked next.

While gems and works of art are truly precious, children are just as precious.

We can't keep leaving the children in that dangerous place, Changkong City.

Although Chen Luo protected that place and Raven trusted Chen Luo enough, there were still things to worry about.

The main reason Raven was so insistent on bringing Chen Luo to World Serpent was for this seaside villa.

He agreed to Grey Serpent's request to show Chen Luo around the World Serpent just to earn some extra money.

"Don't worry, the seaside villa is ready, with all the facilities in place. There, the children can receive the best protection and treatment."

"That villa is not far from the sea, and it is a certain distance from the big city, which is remote enough, but not completely remote. It is also not far from the headquarters. If you want to go, you can drive there."

"I've already sent someone to handle and improve the situation there. You should be able to check in in about an hour. The key is also in the bag by your room door; remember to pick it up soon."

"How is it? Are you satisfied?" Grey Serpent asked.

"Yes, I'm very satisfied." Raven nodded in satisfaction.

Raven and Grey Serpent are at least nominally both cadres, and without some compensation, it would be quite troublesome for Grey Serpent to command Raven.

Getting Raven fully engaged in this task is quite difficult.

The Raven was very satisfied with this reward.

The fact that it's not too far from the World Serpent Headquarters means that the Raven can go back often and take the kids for a drive during holidays.

Because of Chen Luo's safe concentrated Honkai Crystal necklace, although the children cannot have close contact with ordinary people for a long time, it is not a problem for them to go for a stroll in the city.

The quality of Chen Luo's Honkai Crystal is absolutely guaranteed.

And most importantly, if anything happens there, the Raven can receive the news in a timely manner.

If we can't solve it ourselves, we still have Chen Luo, right?

If I can arrive in time, it means Chen Luo can arrive in time as well.

Please, the other one... cough cough, Doraemon.

"Do you need me to arrange plane tickets for you? To pick them up and take them to the new villa?" Grey Serpent asked.

"No need, I can pick you up myself. By the way, is it okay if I pay for the plane ticket in cash?" Raven asked.

The airfare for a dozen or so children must be quite expensive, right?

"No way." Grey Serpent refused decisively.

"Tch, if it's not okay, it's not okay. You're such a cheapskate." Raven curled his lip.

"Is there anything else? If not, I'll take Chen Luo with me," Raven said.

Even as the Raven was leaving, it didn't forget to give Chen Luo a hand.

"There's one more thing. Chen Luo has become Guest Official of the World Serpent," said the Grey Serpent.

"Guest Official, what an ancient title! And does our World Serpent have such a position?"

"Now you have it. Just think of yourself as an unofficial member," Raven said.

"Goodness, Alo, you've created a weird position as soon as you arrived at World Serpent. It's called 'Extra Staff.' That name certainly doesn't sound as good as 'Guest Official.' Grey Serpent, is Alo considered a regular employee? Or is he a manager?" Raven couldn't help but ask.

"No, the privileges of non-members are limited to visiting all places in the World Serpent. They do not enjoy any benefits or special privileges. However, in special circumstances, other members or cadres need to give them priority protection."

"This... why don't you just say he's become the World Serpent's mascot? Why say all these weird things? Saying mascot would be easier to understand," Raven couldn't help but complain.

It has neither power nor special benefits, yet it still needs to be prioritized for protection by the World Serpent. Isn't that just a mascot?

Of course, you can call it Maneki-neko if you want.

"Guest Official, or rather, an unofficial staff member would sound better," Grey Serpent said after a pause.

"...Alright then." Raven shrugged.

That makes sense.
