"What makes you feel that your grandfather isn't being unreasonable? Who gave you this misconception?" Chen Luo asked curiously.

"The human experimentation with Schicksal, whether it was your initial experience, the Sirin incident, or learning about the K423 incident yesterday, should have left a deep impression on you, right? So there's no need to be so angry." Chen Luo sat beside him, his emotions not particularly agitated.

Anyway, it wasn't his own apprentice who was pushed into the fire pit.

Although he felt a bit smug, Chen Luo mainly wanted to teach Theresa a lesson.

While Otto's affection for Theresa is undeniable, besides Theresa...

Tsk tsk

Otto was someone who did absolutely nothing.

But the key is that Otto played a significant role in combating the Honkai.

Theresa was speechless after Chen Luo said that.

"At first... at first I thought that since this plan had been approved, it should be very feasible," Theresa said softly after a moment of silence.

"Then your mistake isn't blind faith, but rather over-reliance on the humanity of a scientist destined for Schicksal. Like the Doctor. Magee, if his granddaughter hadn't died, he wouldn't have been able to reflect on his sins." Chen Luo scoffed at this.

The Doctor. Maki that Chen Luo mentioned here refers to the researcher of the Serenity Gem, which is the Herrscher Core of Death.

All experiments Herrscher Core have resulted in the deaths of many people, such as the Serenity Gem experiment.

Actually, the Gem of Desire experiment was alright. At least it encountered Wendy, a semi-suited candidate, which allowed the Gem of Desire get along relatively well with Wendy's leg bone and enter a quiet state.

The Serenity Gem, the Herrscher Core of Death, was even more violent. Almost all the Valkyrie in the experiments could not withstand the power of the Herrscher of Death and were corrupted into a cloud of Black Mist, leaving no trace of their bodies.

This includes the Doctor. Magee's granddaughter.

Before the Doctor. Magee's granddaughter, there were many test subjects who were sent to hell by the Doctor. Magee herself, and she was completely indifferent to their deaths, even urging Otto to continue finding people to conduct experiments on.

But when the Doctor. Magee saw his granddaughter die in the experiment, it seemed as if he regained the last bit of humanity he had left.

Indeed, unless you hurt yourself, you won't truly understand how terrible the price someone else has paid.

So, after the Doctor. Magee lost one of her granddaughters, she decided to defy Schicksal.

"What should we do now? Chen Luo, you have to save Wendy!" Theresa said anxiously.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Rescue Wendy]: Rescue Wendy from that laboratory, heal her leg, and restore her to normal.

Rewards: 600 Primogem + Theresa's 20 Affinity Points + Random Rewards.

Difficulty: 3 stars

The reward was pretty good, which shows that although Theresa is a bit silly, she at least has a conscience.

"Of course I can save her, but I'll need your help," Chen Luo said.

"How can I help you?" Theresa asked.

"Go and beg your grandfather to send Wendy back to the St. Freya Academy."

"I could ask my grandfather for help, but I don't think he'll agree. It's usually very difficult to change what my grandfather has decided," Theresa said with some difficulty.

Theresa wasn't that she didn't want to ask her grandfather for help, nor was she lacking in determination, but Theresa knew that sometimes Otto's determination was stronger Theresa.

"That was a few days ago. Otto probably wouldn't care about these things now. Besides, he might be thinking about how to farm reputation." Chen Luo said with a smile.

It's easy to understand why Otto doesn't care about these things, since Kallen has a better way to revive, so he naturally doesn't bother with things that would lead to his own demise.

As for why you need to grind reputation?

This probably involves Otto's problem of making enemies everywhere.

Given Otto's current situation, if Kallen were to be resurrected and find out about all the messes Kallen Otto made, she could very well abandon Otto in a fit of anger and go off to live a quiet life with Yae Sakura.

Otto himself doesn't care about fame or anything like that, and neither does Kallen, but what Kallen cares about is what Otto has done in the past. At the same time, Otto cares about Kallen.

Especially after Chen Luo told Otto about Yae Sakura, Otto felt an even greater sense of crisis.

He's clearly Kallen's fiancé, isn't he?

No, we can't let that fox steal Kallen away.

So Otto is planning to start his deception mode recently.

Otto had been a master conman for over 500 years, and he was already very familiar with this method. Now it was time for him to put it to use.

"Then what are you responsible for?" Theresa remembered that she was the one who asked the other party for help, but it seemed that she was the one who did all the work.

"I'm in charge of saving people, otherwise, can you heal their legs? Do you even know how to heal? With your little brain, do you even know how to separate Herrscher Core? Do you even know how to store Herrscher Core?" Chen Luo gave Theresa a disdainful look.

In today's world, technology is the primary productive force. If you don't know anything, just keep doing your job.

"Oh." Theresa nodded obediently.

"Alright, I should head out now. Let me think about where to go: Elysian Realm or the World Serpent?" Chen Luo began to ponder.

Chen Luo has missions on both sides.

"Hey, what will Wendy do after you leave? Aren't you going to treat her leg?"

"Look at what you're saying. Wendy won't be able to come until tomorrow, right? Besides, doesn't it take time for you to beg your grandfather? Doesn't it take time for your grandfather to send Wendy over?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Theresa.

"Why do you seem so busy all the time? What are you busy with every day?" Theresa looked at Chen Luo with some confusion.

Theresa had always thought that Chen Luo would be just like her, slacking off in the office all day during summer vacation, without having to do anything. But she always felt that Chen Luo was more tired than when he was in school, and she rarely saw him.

"I'm busy making a fortune. Mainly because there are people who need my help every day, right? Like you just now. Oh, by the way, here, take this." Chen Luo said as he handed a card to Theresa.

"What is this?" Theresa asked solemnly after taking it.

"When Wendy arrives, write Wendy name on a card, tear it up, and I'll be able to sense it. Oh, by the way, do you have paper and a pen?" Chen Luo suddenly asked.

"Yes." Theresa paused for a moment, then found a pen and paper and handed them to Chen Luo. Theresa then saw Chen Luo writing something furiously on the paper.

After a while, Chen Luo took out an envelope from somewhere, put the paper in the envelope, and handed it to Theresa. He also gave Theresa another Commission Cards.

"What are you doing now?" Theresa was even more puzzled this time.

"Open this letter when you're in the mood to read the HOMU comics. Hmm, at least 10 minutes later," Chen Luo added.

"Whatever you do, do not open it prematurely, or something terrible will happen," Chen Luo said seriously.

"What terrifying thing?" As if infected by Chen Luo, Theresa also became serious.

"You haven't had any bitter melon juice for three days."

"How terrifying!" Theresa exclaimed in horror.

Seeing Theresa's look of terror, Chen Luo nodded in satisfaction, gave her a slight hint, and then opened the door to the bar and went inside.

The implication was that the envelope must not be opened within 10 minutes.

I told you not to open it, so don't open it. It won't hurt you, really.

After all, Chen Luo was well aware of Theresa's unreliability.

Theresa's unreliability will definitely exceed your imagination.

That's why I gave the other party a hint.

As for what was actually inside that envelope...

Want to bring Cecilia back to life? Then make a wish.

It's just these few words.

That's right, Chen Luo plans to get another commission from Theresa.

If we calculate it this way, reviving Cecilia would grant you four commissions: Durandal, Kiana, Siegfried, and Theresa.

Moreover, given Theresa's close relationship with Cecilia, it's guaranteed to be a four-star quest.

Why does Theresa like Kiana? You think it's because of Siegfried? No, of course it's because of Cecilia.

Moreover, Chen Luo didn't feel any remorse or guilt whatsoever about this act of taking advantage of others.

It's certainly not easy for Chen Luo to revive someone, and Chen Luo doesn't ask them to pay anything in return. He just asks them to use their brains and think things through, without asking them to give anything excessive.

According to Chen Luo's guess, Primogem are ultimately something created by people's desires and wishes. They are useless to others, and the person who issued the commission will not suffer any loss after completing the task.

If there were any real losses, Venti, who had been forced to drink so many glasses of wine by Chen Luo, would have died long ago.

So, as Little Elf in a magic lamp, isn't Chen Luo allowed to find several people to make wishes at once?

As for why it was opened again after 10 minutes...

According to Mobius's research, there are limits to human capabilities; the higher the upper limit of one's strength, the higher the amount of Primogem that can be released at one time.

Unless you stop being human.

Although Theresa is not entirely human, she still has a limit and cannot continuously issue high-reward missions at the same time.

So Theresa, who just released a three-star mission, should hold off for now.

As for now? Go find some Greater Bonia to play with!

Chapter 281 Please hug Elysia's waist tightly!

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Resurrect Best Friend]: Resurrect Cecilia.

Rewards: 1300 Primogem + Advanced Random Reward + Theresa's Favorability Increase by 30.

Difficulty: Four stars

"Heh, I knew it." Chen Luo sneered as he sat in the lounge.

"What's wrong?" another person in the lounge asked softly.

"Guess! Su, can't you predict the future by gathering information? Why don't you give me a guess?" Chen Luo said suddenly, his eyes darting around.

Chen Luo is currently sitting in the lounge. After Chen Luo entered the lounge through the Bar Door, he saw two people drinking tea there.

The tea leaves seem to be the same ones I gave them yesterday.

One of them is Su, and the other is Eden.

However, Eden seems to be more interested in alcohol.

Based on the other party's positive impression of him, Chen Luo became quite informal with them, at least not like they were just meeting.

"...What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again. My ability is not to foresee, but to guess," Su said after a moment of silence.

"Oh, don't worry about the details, just guess!" Chen Luo urged.

"Although I can't guess the exact reason, it's probably a wish, right? In the past, whenever your expression changed drastically, it was almost always because of a wish. But I still can't guess what the wish is. After all, I'm not a true precognitive," Su said, shaking her head.

I am just a pitiful, powerless Flame-Chasers hiding in the Elysian Realm. Who gave you the illusion that I can foresee everything?

Please don't make things too difficult for me.

Sue's premonition. It's more like a deduction based on intelligence gathering; if there's no situation at all, what am I supposed to speculate about?

"You guessed right." Chen Luo sighed.

"I knew I couldn't trust that idiot Theresa too much," Chen Luo said helplessly.

Chen Luo said that because only 8 minutes had passed since Chen Luo handed the envelope to Theresa. That's right, Theresa opened the letter in just 8 minutes.

Although Chen Luo gave Theresa a hint, it was just a hint.

At most, it can only reinforce Theresa's idea that she shouldn't open the envelope for 10 minutes.

Chen Luo is different from the Herrscher of Knowledge. Chen Luo is usually very cautious in using his Herrscher of Knowledge abilities, which is why he only used the influence ability at the level of suggestion.

However, it turns out that this kind of reinforcement didn't have much effect.

That poor Theresa, she should still be curious.

Fortunately, this commission proves that there is no difference between 8 minutes and 10 minutes.

Since the actual shortest interval is 5 minutes, Chen Luo was afraid that Theresa would open the envelope first, so he tricked her a little.

Aim high, and you'll achieve something; aim for the middle, and you'll achieve less; aim low, and you'll achieve nothing.
