Snake, My Beloved Snake
Is the perspective of the Honkai Consciousness really that useless?
"Let me introduce myself. I am the Eighth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Knowledge, the Herrscher controls consciousness!" the Herrscher of Knowledge said with considerable pride.
"Yu Du Chen ..." Upon hearing the Herrscher of Knowledge say this, Hua subconsciously looked at the Divine Key she possessed— Yu Du Chen.
"Could it be that I used Yu Du Chen for too long, so I was assimilated by Yu Du Chen and became the Herrscher of Knowledge?" Hua couldn't help but make such a guess.
"Well, you might be overthinking it. My becoming the Herrscher of Knowledge has nothing to do with Yu Du Chen," the Herrscher of Knowledge said, waving her hand.
"The Herrscher of your era seem... somewhat different from Herrscher of our era," Eden said, frowning.
After all, judging from the current situation, this Herrscher of Knowledge does not seem to have any hostility. On the contrary, he seems to have a very good relationship with Chen Luo.
Aren't Herrscher enemies of humanity?
Eden always felt like he was falling behind.
"Well, who knows?" The Herrscher of Knowledge spread his hands, indicating that he knew nothing.
In fact, if the Herrscher of Knowledge were to make the decision, he might just give all the Flame-Chasers Herrscher of Knowledge a good dressing down.
Can the current civilization be the same as the Previous Era? The current civilization is much more humane. At least the people of this era don't think about eliminating all the Herrscher. On the contrary, the Herrscher are the backbone of humanity's resistance against the Honkai in this era.
And you, you faced all the Herrscher and ended them all with your killing. Even the captain, who possessed human reason, was not spared by you.
However, the current atmosphere doesn't seem suitable for saying these things, and those Herrscher of Knowledge this are aware of it.
Furthermore, perhaps the Herrscher of the previous civilization did indeed need to be eliminated, and the reason why the Herrscher of this era are all traitors might be thanks to Elysia?
So it's really hard for them to understand what I'm saying now.
Perhaps it was the sacrifices of the Previous Era that brought hope to the next civilization.
This includes, but is not limited to, the various plans of the Fire Moth and the Herrscher that Elysia eventually became.
Therefore, the Herrscher of Knowledge restrained his urge to rant.
"Perhaps someone's sacrifice was worthwhile? In any case, the Herrscher of this civilization are not entirely enemies of humanity. At least the First Herrscher, the Welt of Herrscher of Reason, is one Herrscher fights for humanity," Chen Luo said.
"Has the outside world already developed to the Eighth Herrscher? No, I remember you, Lolo, were the Tenth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Domination, right? Or is the order in which the Herrscher appeared different from the previous civilization?" Elysia fell into deep thought.
"Stop guessing. Actually, the current Herrscher have only developed to the Third Herrscher, the Herrscher of Thunder. The First Herrscher Welt, was special because of the reason he formed the Herrscher Core, so he was not controlled by the Honkai and became Herrscher who fought for humanity."
"The Second Herrscher, Sirin, was indeed a bit reckless, and then she was eliminated by the First Herrscher, Otto, and Hua together. The Third Herrscher was just born, and that's how it happened," Chen Luo explained.
"The next Herrscher will probably be born in about three years. If nothing unexpected happens, the Second Herrscher, Sirin, will be born then." If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will definitely happen.
As for Wendy? Hmm? Who's that? Has she done anything significant?
"Wait, wait, wait! Didn't you just say that Sirin had been destroyed? Why would it be reborn?" Elysia interrupted Chen Luo.
"That's because someone's causing trouble. This kind of thing happens all the time, no matter which civilization you're in," Chen Luo said matter-of-factly.
"My becoming the Tenth Herrscher is rather unexpected. The main reason I became Herrscher is due to my own Stigmata and my extremely high Honkai Energy Adaptation," Chen Luo said.
"But aren't you not from this world? How can you have Stigmata?"
The Stigmata Project is based on the existence of recessive genes in humans created by Dr. Mei, a scientist from the previous era, so only people in this world can possess Stigmata.
"What are you saying? You don't doubt my ability to travel through worlds and time, so why would you doubt that I possess Stigmata?" Chen Luo said.
"That makes sense. So what about this future Hua? Isn't the Herrscher of Knowledge the Eighth Herrscher?"
"If I, the Herrscher of Domination, am an exception, then this Herrscher of Knowledge is the exception among exceptions. As for the specifics, I can't go into too much detail, but you just need to know that this Herrscher of Knowledge is willing to eliminate Honkai for humanity," Chen Luo said, placing a hand on the Herrscher of Knowledge's shoulder.
Every time Chen Luo mentions the birth of the Herrscher of Knowledge, he wants to laugh, and the object of his laughter is the Honkai Consciousness.
Even though the Honkai Consciousness likes Chen Luo so much, it seems a bit inappropriate for Chen Luo to mock it, but Chen Luo just wants to laugh.
"Su, why haven't you said anything?" After asking questions for a long time, Elysia finally couldn't hold back any longer and started looking at Su.
Normally, this kind of brain-teasing task should be left to Su, but Su just stayed silent, so Elysia had to ask.
Elysia has finally decided to give up.
Elysia endured pain she shouldn't have had to bear.
Pretty girls should be able to relax and not work all the time, how can they keep working?
"She's probably thinking about the Herrscher of Knowledge in our civilization, isn't she?" Kevin, who had only uttered two words throughout, finally spoke for the second time.
"Oh, right. After all, it was because of the Eighth Herrscher that Su became Flame-Chaser, right?" Elysia recalled this matter.
"That's right." Kevin nodded.
"Lo, I remember Dr. Spacetime once said that when those humans infected by the Eighth Herrscher's memes were about to attack him, a mysterious person saved him. At that time, he sensed a special activity, somewhat similar to the Herrscher, but not entirely. Could it be you?" Su touched his chin for a long time, his eyelids trembled slightly, but in the end he still didn't open his eyes.
"(⊙o⊙) Wow, Sue's eyelids twitched slightly? Eden, did you see that?"
"I saw it." Eden nodded.
"This is truly an extraordinary event," Elysia exclaimed.
"Huh?" Raven, standing to the side, looked completely bewildered by Elysia's exclamation.
Raven had never seen Sue before, so naturally it didn't know why Sue kept her eyes closed.
Naturally, no one knew just how shocking it was that Su's eyelids twitched slightly.
"The wisdom of the enlightened is always incisive. Within Flame-Chasers, we usually divide things into four levels according to their severity: Su has no reaction, Su reacts but does not open her eyes, Su reacts and her eyelids tremble, and Su will also widen her eyes." Elysia said in an exaggerated tone.
"Is there such a strange standard? It sounds quite interesting," Ling exclaimed from the side.
"I don't know, at least I didn't know there was such a classification." Sakura, who was standing next to Ling, shook her head.
Sakura had never heard of anything like that.
"So, who is that 'we'?" Sakura looked at Elysia.
"Me, Eden, and Phyllis," Elysia said in a flippant tone.
"As expected..." Sakura understood.
Sure enough, only these three most boring people would do something like this.
Su remained silent, seemingly unconcerned.
What Su cared about more was Chen Luo's answer.
"Don't look at me like that. What's the use of looking at me? Even if that's something I'll do in the future, you should ask my future self that question. How would I know now?" Chen Luo shook his head as he saw Su looking at him like that.
But come to think of it, this is something I would do.
If Chen Luo remembered correctly, that the Doctor named Percy died in the Eighth Herrscher incident.
If I had known about this, I might have actually tried to help the other person. After all, there are very few regrets that can be easily averted, and this incident is one of them.
"Alright, it seems like today really is a good day. Let's go to the bar and have a good drink. Hua, come here, let's have a good chat." Elysia waved to the Herrscher of Knowledge.
Elysia was very interested in the Herrscher of Herrscher of Knowledge, firstly because the Herrscher's personality seemed different from the originally honest Hua, as if she were a different Hua, and secondly because the Herrscher was also Herrscher, yet she was able to maintain her rationality.
Thirdly, because Elysia herself is Herrscher.
Although Elysia's intuition told Elysia that this Hua seemed different from the real Hua, who knows how 50,000 years could change a person?
"Huh?" The Herrscher of Knowledge turned her gaze to Hua. To be honest, the Herrscher of Knowledge was far more interested in Hua than anyone else.
But no one could refuse Elysia, no one.
Therefore, the Herrscher of Knowledge, who inherited Hua's memories, naturally couldn't refuse. She was immediately pressed close by Elysia, who then hugged her tightly and dragged her towards the bar.
"Xiola, give these guests a good welcome. This should be a period of great earning points, so make the most of it," Chen Luo said, patting Raven on the shoulder.
"Wait, what do you mean by that? It sounds like you're entrusting someone's child to someone else."
"Don't put it so harshly, I'm just going to see Mobius." Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Raven.
"Oh, if that's the case, then you really should entrust your son to someone else, since you're going to see Mobius." Raven nodded with deep feeling.
Going to see Mobius alone, you really have guts.
"Prejudice in Herrscher of the Heart is a mountain. Mobius, don't be fooled by her seemingly dangerous appearance, she is actually..."
"Even more dangerous," Raven added.
"..."
Chen Luo suddenly realized that he couldn't refute it.
Chapter 239 Snake Snake, My Snake Snake
Is Mobius in danger?
If you ask any person with a conscience and normal thinking, they will give you a positive answer.
After all, the Mei Biu Si Laboratory is also known as the Devil's Laboratory.
"Lolo, are you really going to face Mobius alone? Don't you really need me to come with you?" Elysia looked at Chen Luo with some concern.
"Don't worry, don't worry. Although I may not be particularly outstanding in other areas, you should at least know that I'm good at escaping," Chen Luo said with considerable confidence.
Moreover, Chen Luo was quite confident in the discount between himself and Mobius. After all, it was a 50% discount. I don't expect you to be as close as the Herrscher of Knowledge, but you should at least be a little better in attitude than Liu Wenxuan, right?
We've all been through thick and thin together.
Surely nothing bad can happen like this?
"Alright, you guys go to the bar and have some fun. Don't worry about me. At least in the Elysian Realm, nothing should happen, right?" Chen Luo said somewhat uncertainly.
"Don't worry, don't worry. At least in the Elysian Realm, you won't be hunted down. Well, unless you see Aponia," Elysia comforted Chen Luo.
"Wait, what do you mean by that? Aili, don't go! Come back! Sister Elysia..." Chen Luo was momentarily confused upon hearing Elysia's words.
What kind of conflict do I have with that Aponia?
Logically speaking, Chen Luo shouldn't have any grudge against that nun with the large breasts.
According to Chen Luo's logic, Chen Luo should be most afraid of Aponia, and also least afraid of Aponia.
The reason for the fear of Aponia is that Aponia's abilities are somewhat special, similar to a mutated version of mind control, and she can also see the Fate Threads of some people, which makes her particularly threatening to Chen Luo, a visitor from Different World.
Therefore, unless Chen Luo had spent some time in the Previous Era or had some special means, Chen Luo would not have approached Aponia, and even if he had, there would not have been much communication between them.
The reason Chen Luo wasn't afraid of Aponia was mainly because his talent panel could resist mental control and gave him a great deal of mental resistance. Although Chen Luo wasn't sure if he could resist the other party's discipline, it was still a trump card.
If Honkai energy is omnipotent, then Primogem is even more omnipotent than Honkai energy.
However, based on Chen Luo's guess, Chen Luo would probably still try to get to know Aponia more, since Aponia's ability was truly rare.
As for the Destiny Ability, although I might not necessarily buy it, I'll raise my favorability first. Of course, if we're talking about Destiny Ability, Chen Luo still prefers the young lady, namely the vampire young lady from Gensokyo — Remilia Scarlet.
The other party's ability to control fate is something that can be freely manipulated, while the ability that Aponia possesses is more like a curse to Aponia herself.
Although the Gensokyo is only the size of a city, you can't deny that it has all sorts of outrageous abilities.
Yakumo Yukari's abilities are overpowered enough, but Yakumo Yukari might not necessarily be the strongest.
It's simply a matter of talking about ability without mentioning effort; that's just being dishonest.
The abilities of the characters in Gensokyo are all incredibly overpowered; if used properly, they can all be developed into S-rank Talent, or at least guaranteed S-rank Talent.
But...
"Kevin, what's going on between me and Aponia? Is there some kind of conflict? Please tell me, I beg you," Chen Luo said, pulling Flame-Chasers, the last person about to enter the bar.
Although Chen Luo wasn't very familiar with Kevin in any way, Kevin was the last Flame-Chasers who wasn't at the bar.
"Well, you can ignore what Elysia said. She always tells some not-too-outrageous lies, you should know that." Kevin paused, looked at Chen Luo seriously, and then said.
"I do know that, but I'm still a little uneasy if you just say that. Can you reveal a little more?" Chen Luo said helplessly.
Kevin's words were essentially meaningless.
Aside from confirming to Chen Luo that Elysia was lying, it served no other purpose.
Elysia truly loves everyone, but that doesn't mean Elysia never lies. In fact, lying is another little trick Elysia uses to enhance relationships, especially since Elysia lies are never excessive.
Therefore, Chen Luo was unsure when Elysia would lie.
Moreover, the fact that Elysia and Aponia have a good relationship makes Chen Luo even more panicked.
