Activate Magic Card: Monster Reborn
"Or perhaps it's due to coercion?" Chen Luo asked uncertainly.
"No, it's just that you helped me fulfill three wishes. That's why I signed two contracts with you."
Oh, I see, yet another victim of exploitation...
Chen Luo suddenly realized.
Chapter 300 Activating the Magic Card: Resurrection of the Dead
Normally, when Chen Luo helps others complete a commission, he won't ask for anything other than the Primogem, or he won't refuse if the other party offers it to Chen Luo. However, sometimes Chen Luo can directly use the commission as a transaction.
If you do me a favor, I'll fulfill a request for you.
In this way, Chen Luo not only gets the Primogem, but also gets what Chen Luo wants.
However, he can't do too much of this kind of work. If he does too much, the other party might become wary of doing business with Chen Luo because of Chen Luo high prices, and then Chen Luo will get fewer commissions, which is something Chen Luo can't accept.
After all, compared to real money and wealth, Primogem are the most precious things.
Therefore, Chen Luo would probably only do this during certain special periods or with certain people, such as Grey Serpent.
Grey Serpent is really a very useful tool.
The key point is that he has lived for 50,000 years.
More importantly, this initial character is easy to obtain.
"But then another problem arises: why did you only sign two contracts even though I helped you fulfill three wishes?" Chen Luo suddenly thought of this question.
"You said it yourself, the second contract counts as two," the Grey Serpent said in a low voice.
"Hmm, that makes sense..."
Since it saved two people, it's fair to say it's equivalent to two wishes.
As for Raven's brother? He's just an extra at best.
Although it might sound a bit disrespectful, Raven's brother's request was actually quite easy for Grey Serpent to complete.
But then again, is the Book of Contracts really that effective?
Chen Luo had never experienced what would happen if he broke a contract, so Chen Luo didn't know.
But the fact that Grey Serpent, who doesn't seem honest, can honestly complete the contract tasks proves that the Book of Contracts is indeed effective.
But why didn't it work on the Raven?
Why don't you show some power? If you're so capable, why don't you smash a small island for the Raven?
Chen Luo was completely baffled.
Of course, what puzzled Chen Luo was why Kallen wasn't on the list of those to be saved.
Chen Luo had many questions in his mind, but these questions would probably only be answered by continuing to move forward into the future.
"This secret room was built by you, so it naturally belongs to you. As for the key or anything like that, I presume you don't need it. If you need any items or research equipment, please feel free to ask," Grey Serpent said.
"Thank you," Chen Luo said gratefully.
It has to be said that the rain from the Grey Serpent came at just the right time; Chen Luo was exactly lacking these research equipment.
Although it wasn't impossible to go to Mobius's laboratory in the Elysian Realm, Chen Luo always felt that he might lose something important there.
Although Grey Serpent doesn't seem like a righteous person, at least he hasn't done anything too outrageous to Chen Luo so far; on the contrary, he has helped him quite a bit.
Although it is very likely due to the contract, the matter of whether someone is good or bad is based on actions, not intentions.
Just like how Chen Luo serves food to many bar patrons in order to earn their Primogem, providing them with free food and drinks will at least increase their goodwill towards Chen Luo.
However, one should always be wary of others.
It's not that Chen Luo is ungrateful; he harbors malice towards Grey Serpent, who occasionally helps him. But the key issue is that Grey Serpent looks like a villain from every angle...
"The rest of the time is in your hands. If you need any help, please don't hesitate to ask," Grey Serpent said after glancing at the two clones sleeping in their hibernation pods.
"Well, that's about it. If you have anything to do, you can go now." Chen Luo nodded.
What happened next was beyond Grey Serpent's help, since Grey Serpent wasn't a puppeteer.
Next, Chen Luo will combine those two souls with these two bodies.
At this point, Chen Luo felt a pang of heartache. What pained Chen Luo was not anything else, but those two near-perfect Soul Tear Drop.
Chen Luo had originally planned to study the Soul Tear Drop for a few more days after receiving it that morning, but he didn't expect to need it now.
Well...
After watching the Grey Serpent leave the laboratory, Chen Luo focused her gaze on Yae Rin and Cecilia in the hibernation pod.
After touching the hibernation pod, Chen Luo mastered how to use it through his Furniture Mastery.
At least Chen Luo activated the hibernation pod.
Chen Luo first activated the hibernation pod containing Yae Rin's body.
The reason for thawing Yae Rin first is that her task is slightly easier.
Cecilia was, after all, a warrior, and the spirit of a warrior is more resilient, so naturally, the soul is also more resilient.
Yae Rin was just a sickly little girl, so it was relatively easy for her to be resurrected, and it was easier for her soul to reunite with her body.
Hmm, resurrection...
"Damn, I suddenly know why we didn't use Heavenly Scented Cardamom on these two. It's because the mission requires them to be resurrected." Watching the hibernation pod gradually open, Chen Luo suddenly got it.
All the missions Chen Luo accepted related to these people were about resurrection, not finding them, so they could only be considered resurrected after they actually died once.
The Heavenly Scented Cardamom ensures the opponent doesn't die; if they don't die, then it can't be called resurrection.
"Of course, it's also possible that we've run out of Heavenly Scented Cardamom or something..."
In short, it's perfectly reasonable to not give these two people Heavenly Scented Cardamom.
After letting Yae Rin air out for a while, Chen Luo took her out of the hibernation pod and placed her on the operating table.
To Chen Luo's surprise, when he carried Yae-ryo out, Chen Luo found that her body was warm.
Is it truly worthy of being called the Fifth Divine Key? Or is this Fifth Divine Key something that Chen Luo specially modified himself?
After all, putting everything else aside, Chen Luo should be quite skilled at modifying tools.
The clothes the other person was wearing looked somewhat like Miko's outfit, but not entirely.
In short, it's an outfit that perfectly suits Yae Rei's style, showing that Grey Serpent put a lot of thought into it.
Chen Luo didn't have much time to pay attention to these things. After placing Yae Rin on the operating table, countless transparent lines suddenly extended from around Chen Luo and plunged into Yae Rin's body.
Unlike the black and red threads of the past, this time the threads revealed a faint white light.
This time, it wasn't the threads of the Herrscher of Corruption, but the threads of Holy Light.
Chen Luo's Elemental Eye possesses a special attribute called light, and the power of light has a certain healing effect even without using specific spells.
Chen Luo wasn't turning Yae Rin into a doll; rather, he was using threads to probe into her body and get a feel for her physical condition.
"Did Grey Serpent just copy Yae Rin's frail health as well?" Through these threads that could slowly heal injuries, Chen Luo could sense that Yae Rin's physical condition was not very good.
Recalling Yae Rin's already poor health, Chen Luo also thought of this matter.
As Chen Luo took Yae Rin's soul out of the pink box, he began to transform Yae Rin into Puppet Transformation.
Chen Luo didn't intend to transform Yae Rin into a puppet; Chen Luo main goal was to enhance Yae Rin's body.
While strengthening the body can be achieved by adjusting muscle density, Chen Luo also wanted to increase the other party's Honkai Energy Adaptation, which could only be done by transforming the other party into Puppet Transformation to a certain extent.
Chen Luo didn't expect Yae Rin to become that strong in the future, but at least she could make her sister worry less.
Besides, these days, if you don't have some Honkai Energy Adaptation, how can you stay with those Herrscher every day?
Fortunately, the other party only needed basic Honkai Energy Adaptation, not too high, so Chen Luo only performed 20% of the Puppet Transformation modification on the other party and then stopped.
As long as the degree of transformation does not exceed 50%, it does not involve psychological transformation, so there is no problem.
If Chen Luo really needed combat power, he wouldn't need Yae Rin.
Also, although the other person's physical condition was like this when they died, they don't necessarily have to be the same to be resurrected.
Or rather, only if the other party has a stronger physical constitution can they merge with one's soul more quickly.
After all, if the body is too weak, it will be very troublesome to bear the soul, even if that soul is one's own.
"My body has been strengthened considerably, and my Honkai Energy Adaptation has improved. Now it's time to fuse with my soul." Chen Luo glanced at the perfect-quality Soul Tear Drop his hand with some heartache before dropping it onto a hazy ball of gray light.
If a soul doesn't possess any strange qualities, it's generally a chaotic color.
Simply put, it has no color.
And Yae Rin happens to be just such an ordinary soul.
The truth is that the vast majority of people in the world have ordinary souls; where do all these special souls come from?
Oh, no, Shenhe should be the soul of the special color.
After the Soul Tear Drop dripped into that ball of soul, the ball of soul suddenly became softer and more pliable, like a pool of fluid, swaying in Chen Luo's palm. Furthermore, the soul, which was already somewhat like a ball of light, was now enveloped in a layer of chocolate-colored radiance.
Hmm, chocolate brown...
Upon seeing this, Chen Luo quickly placed his soul on Yae Rin's forehead.
That clump of soul, which looked like a strange liquid, entered Yae Rin's body without any hindrance.
The function of the Soul Tear Drop is first to revitalize the soul that has been separated from the body for some time, just as we just discussed. Then, when the soul and body unite, it provides maximum protection for the soul, acts as a lubricant, and replenishes some of the soul's power.
Seeing Yae Rin's relatively peaceful expression, Chen Luo was basically certain that she was alright and should wake up after a period of adjustment.
The main reason is that the quality of this Soul Tear Drop is just too perfect, so the time when I wake up shouldn't be too late.
"Next up is my mother-in-law... oops, I mean Cecilia." Chen Luo walked to the hibernation pod, opened it, and looked at the gentle, white-haired beauty inside.
Chen Luo was now having a bit of a headache looking at Cecilia, because Cecilia was much stronger than Yae Rin, so dealing with her would be a bit more complicated.
Chen Luo continued to carry Cecilia to another operating table.
Although Chen Luo didn't understand why there needed to be two operating tables in a laboratory, as long as they worked, that was fine.
Cecilia was restricted to wearing only casual clothes, and her body temperature was somewhat warm.
"Hmm, let me see..." Chen Luo also inserted his holy light-colored silk thread into Cecilia's body to check her physical data.
"Body temperature is normal, nervous system is normal, bodily functions are normal, only physical strength is slightly low..."
See, this is why even highly capable people can get into trouble.
That's because replicating the body of a powerful person is very troublesome, and the resulting physical attributes might differ from the original. Although Chen Luo n't know what Cecilia's original physical attributes were, he knew what Durandal's physical attributes were.
Since both of them are mother and daughter, and both are the strongest Valkyrie in Schicksal, comparing them to Durandal isn't a big mistake.
Therefore, the physical condition of this body is indeed slightly lower now.
To put it bluntly, it's much lower.
The stronger the body, the better it can withstand the impact of the original soul, which is why Chen Luo strengthened Yae Rin.
Generally speaking, physical strength can only be stronger than the original body, not weaker, because if it is weaker, the frail body may not be able to withstand the powerful soul.
"Especially her soul, which actually possesses special qualities, faintly glowing with white light." Chen Luo was even more troubled after extracting Cecilia's soul.
A person's soul often better represents their character.
If even the soul has a hint of white, it means that the other person is indeed an impeccably kind person.
This is what we call the spark of the soul.
Such a soul is worthy of respect no matter where it is.
Of course, it's also a good material for making soul dust...
Specificity is a good thing; it often represents the uniqueness of the soul's owner.
However, as a puppeteer, and only a proficient puppeteer at that, Chen Luo didn't particularly like special features.
Because specificity sometimes means that Chen Luo may not be able to handle it.
"However, it seems that there is indeed Holy Blood in the other party's body. Although the concentration does not seem to be very high, it is still barely enough. In that case, the difference from the original body is much smaller." Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief after detecting this level.
