Chen Luo: Why Should I Run? I'm Not Wanted!
Even without the original storyline, Chen Luo's Fate Threads and abilities can still be vaguely seen.
But Chen Luo was already prepared to deal with the other party.
Chen Luo is aware that he should take responsibility for the problems he creates.
Moreover, Chen Luo is indeed capable of taking on this responsibility.
To be honest, Chen Luo didn't think the demon god, suppressed at the bottom of the sea for thousands of years, would possess much of its original strength after being unsealed. However, a demon god is still a demon god...
But did Chen Luo think all that growth was for nothing? Chen Luo already has six or seven S-rank Talent.
"It's just fighting an Osial, the Vortex God. Chen Luo will buff himself to the maximum and refuse to believe he can't win."
If, in the absolute worst-case scenario, something goes wrong and we can't win, isn't there still the Herrscher of Knowledge the Lady?
If things go wrong, Chen Luo can simply bring the Osial, the Vortex God into the War Domain.
And by the way, let's also invite the Herrscher of Knowledge, Durandal, Siegfried, Yuyuko, Yakumo Yukari, Venti...
These people aren't just sitting around doing nothing.
Although Chen Luo might not be able to persuade Yakumo Yukari to come, Chen Luo could persuade Yuyuko to come, since Yuyuko is probably already inseparable from Chen Luo's food.
The fact that they could persuade Yuyuko means they could persuade Yakumo Yukari.
You can feed a foodie for a thousand days, but only use a foodie for a moment.
The same goes for alcoholics.
These people have been getting things for free (not really) for so long, it's time they paid a price (not really)!
As for whether the War Domain could trap the Demon Osial, Chen Luo felt it wasn't necessary to take it too seriously. After all, even Durandal could be trapped, let alone the Vortex Archon.
Durandal possesses a magical power derived from the true World Bubble, allowing her to freely traverse the Sea of Quantum for three minutes.
She couldn't even break through the [War Domain], let alone Osial.
Chen Luo actually suspected that this ability had been modified by the talent panel when it was extended to him, but Chen Luo had no evidence.
And to be honest, Chen Luo felt that the Herrscher of Knowledge Light alone could solve Osial.
To complete a mission, one must naturally bear certain risks. However, the risks Chen Luo is referring to here are not those borne by others, but rather those borne by Chen Luo himself.
After all, if Chen Luo really messes up, he will naturally have to pay something when he asks for help.
In any case, Chen Luo will not allow that Osial to affect ordinary people.
However, Chen Luo was wondering whether he should drag the Childe into the fight against Osial. After all, the Childe was quite annoying.
Of course, the Childe will definitely go to the other side, but it's hard to say whether Osial will be willing to accept Childe as a teammate.
So... it's possible that the Childe will be beaten on both sides.
"Hiss..." The Childe standing next to Chen Luo gasped.
For some reason, the young Childe suddenly felt a chill, a bone-chilling chill, a sense of danger he hadn't felt when Childe fell into the abyss.
But the Childe master looked around and didn't find anything dangerous.
If I had to categorize it, would it count as a financial crisis?
"How much? 1.5 billion Mora?" Lumine was standing next to him, staring in disbelief at Chen Luo frantically throwing Mora into his backpack.
Just now, Lumine had expressed some disdain for Chen Luo, who was selling things to the Fatui, but when Lumine saw that Chen Luo had received 30 million Mora, she was speechless.
But when Lumine learned that this was just a price Hundred Taboos Scroll, Lumine admitted that she was jealous.
I need to find a way to help him spend some money...
"What do you know? Each of these 'Hundred Taboos Scroll' symbolizes the connection between humans and immortals, and each contains a large amount of immortal power. Each one is priceless, and I don't know how many people would be willing to spend hundreds of millions of Mora to buy them."
"To be honest, why can a meal at the Gilded Palace or Wanmin Restaurant cost tens of millions of Mora, but my Hundred Taboos Scroll can't? Do you think that a treasure personally crafted by Rex Lapis to help mortals fight is less valuable than a meal? You agree, Childe," Chen Luo said quite confidently.
Let's be reasonable. Could your Childe buy so many Hundred Taboos Scroll elsewhere? Even Rex Lapis himself couldn't produce that many.
Do you think the Hundred Taboos Scroll is just for show? It does indeed have the ability to break taboos; otherwise, why do you think it's called the Hundred Taboos Scroll? Moreover, this also represents its ability to enhance combat power.
"Brother Chen Luo is right," the Childe nodded and said.
"But why is it 1.5 billion Mora? If there are 49, shouldn't it be 1.47 billion Mora?" Lumine was completely stunned.
"Isn't this just rounding up? Besides, even the Childe didn't care, so why are you?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Lumine.
"Is this how you round off?" Paimon's little brain was a little confused.
Who can earn 30 million Mora just by rounding up?
"Don't take people too seriously, or you'll have no friends," Chen Luo waved his hand.
Chen Luo personally dislikes asking the other party to produce something in real life after selling something expensive using Primogem.
Chen Luo will offer some discounts on this price, but special cases will be handled specially.
You can't say that the Childe master is a pure villain, but you can't say that he isn't a villain either.
Besides, it's only 1.5 billion Mora. Who doesn't have tens of millions of Mora in their game?
Moreover, the things the Childe is going to do with these things are indeed despicable, so it's not a problem to make the other party pay a certain price. Besides, it's a case of one willing to hit and the other willing to be hit, and at least the Childe is smiling happily now.
Of course, the Childe was all smiles, but the Northland Bank employee next to him, who was taking out money, was now looking miserable.
One reason is that counting money is really tiring.
Secondly, the other party is having a headache about how to account for such a large sum of money.
"Our country is quite wealthy, so spending 1.5 billion Mora to buy 49 Hundred Taboos Scroll isn't a bad deal. One Hundred Taboos Scroll is equivalent to 30 million Mora, which isn't too expensive," the Childe said after a moment's thought.
If Chen Luo only had one Hundred Taboos Scroll, the Childe wouldn't mind spending hundreds of millions of Mora to buy it.
Just like how Otto was willing to trade a villa and a small island for a counterfeit Herrscher Core.
Whether something is valuable or not depends on who has it.
Moreover, if you do the math, you'll find that Mora's purchasing power is actually quite low. It's possible that 1.5 billion Mora wouldn't even buy a small villa island in the Honkai World.
At least the villa island that Raven bought was really expensive.
So they made a fortune.
The Childe is the Harbinger of the Fatui, one of the 13 highest-ranking members of the Fatui, and a leader-level figure in the Snezhnaya.
Besides, the Childe must have used money from the Northland Bank, Childe doesn't seem to care.
For the Northland Bank, 1.5 billion is a rather troublesome amount of Mora, but it's not impossible, especially since the Childe is in full charge of this operation. That word "full charge" says it all.
"Goodbye, I'll be waiting for your good news," Childe Lehe said to Chen Luo and the others as they walked away.
It's time for Chen Luo and his group to set off to find the immortals.
However, upon returning to his home country's bank, the smile on the Childe's face vanished instantly.
"Go, find out who this Chen Luo is, and how he suddenly appeared in Liyue?" the Childe said coldly.
"Yes!" A person who had been hiding in the shadows and using the shadows to become invisible appeared and said with his head down.
"So many Hundred Taboos Scroll... this is not something an ordinary person could obtain..." the Childe said in a low voice.
Chapter 329 Chen Luo: Why should I run? I'm not wanted by the police.
"Chen Luo, Chen Luo, you've suddenly acquired so much Mora, you must not know what to do with it, right? Do you want me to give you some advice? I'm the best guide in the Teyvat Continent ..." Paimon said to Chen Luo.
Paimon became even more active after distancing himself from the Fatui.
"Well... I plan to donate 750 million Mora for the post-disaster reconstruction of Liyue," Chen Luo said after a moment of contemplation.
"??? Post-disaster reconstruction? What disaster? How come we don't know about this?" Paimon was completely bewildered.
What did I miss? How did it become a disaster?
"Look at what you're saying. The very existence of the Fatui is a disaster for other countries. My intuition tells me that they're bound to do something weird. And my intuition is usually very accurate."
"Then... should we still help them contact the immortals?"
"We're not helping them, we're helping the two of you. If you still want the arrest warrant to be withdrawn, you really have to go," Chen Luo said.
Actually, it wouldn't matter if Lumine and the others didn't go, since Chen Luo was definitely going anyway, but Chen Luo always felt that someone had to suffer with him.
"Alright, we should hurry up and set off. We must deliver the unmodified intelligence to the immortals before the Liyue Qixing find them!" Paimon whispered encouragingly after they had walked a distance away.
"Liyue Qixing are absolutely despicable! They actually issued me a wanted notice!" Lumine said indignantly.
"... Putting everything else aside, you really can't blame Liyue Qixing for issuing an arrest warrant for you. After all, they were investigating who the murderer of Geo Archon was, and you suddenly ran away. Who else would they arrest if not you?"
In short, this is a matter of stance.
From Chen Luo's perspective, at least from the perspective of the Liyue Qixing, he would think that Lumine is really suspicious.
"This... Although I know my brother is still alive and well, the identity of the person who kidnapped him is still somewhat mysterious. At least I don't know who it is right now."
"Moreover, according to Venti, every god can easily change their appearance, so it is impossible to determine who someone is just by their appearance."
"Every god could be the culprit who kidnapped my brother, so naturally I have to be wary of all the gods."
"Venti doesn't count. That drunkard Venti doesn't seem like the kind of person who would do something like this. The most important thing is that the other party's attack methods are completely different."
Lumine still had a certain level of trust in Venti, after all, they had a life-or-death bond.
"And the Liyue Qixing are the Geo Archon's subordinates, so I should run away no matter what, right?" Lumine said confidently.
After all, Lumine, who had been persecuted by some unknown deity, was far more wary of deities than others.
"That makes sense." Chen Luo nodded in agreement with Lumine's answer.
"But how should I put it? While I can't be sure about the other gods, this Geo Archon probably isn't the one who kidnapped your brother. And when I was selling the Geo Archon doll, I also met a few of the Liyue Qixing. At least from their words and actions, they didn't seem to be completely like machines carrying out the Geo Archon's orders. They have the right to think and act independently."
"Moreover, the key is that I'm somewhat familiar with those Liyue Qixing. Even if my influence is useless, Shenhe still has some influence," Chen Luo said, pointing to Shenhe beside him.
Of course, it's not mainly Shenhe has more influence, but mainly because Ganyu has more influence, and Shenhe is her junior sister.
Although she can't be fully called a junior sister, since Ganyu wasn't Cloud Retainer's apprentice but was raised by him, Liyue is a place that values lineage and kinship.
"And even if you're going to run, you should run carefully. With your strength, the fact that you were discovered is just bad luck." Chen Luo glanced at Lumine, this somewhat disappointing Traveler from Different World.
You say we're both Traveler from Different World, can't you stand up for us Traveler?
I'm not saying you can easily defeat the Seven Gods, but at least you should be able to learn how to run away. If a Traveler can't even run away, what's the point of traveling?
After all, the most important thing for Traveler is to have a strong ability to escape.
For example, Chen Luo, and Irena...
Chen Luo indeed quite accomplished in other areas, but his ability to escape remains the strongest.
Although Chen Luo didn't think it was anything to be proud of, that was the reality. After all, both bars and Teleport Anchor were geared towards defense or retreat.
It can't be called an escape; it's called a strategic retreat.
As for why Lumine didn't use a bar? Please, if a big bar suddenly appeared in Yujing Terrace, it would be strange if no one noticed it.
As for One-Eyed Treasure... Lumine actually didn't want to go to war with the Millelith.
"Then, if we go back for inspection and questioning, can we ask them to drop the arrest warrant?" Paimon asked, pawing at his little hands after hearing Chen Luo's assurance.
What do you think?
"If you had taken the questioning seriously from the beginning, with your title of Honorary Knight of Mondstadt City, you could have hired a lawyer to defend yourselves. As long as you did not do anything wrong, you would have been fine."
"Although the forces and knights remaining in Mondstadt are a bit weak right now, you have to understand that Mondstadt is indeed a powerful nation with the financial resources and strength to support their expeditions. You are an Honorary Knight, you need to learn to leverage that power." Chen Luo tapped Lumine on the head.
Although Chen Luo knew Lumine's reason for running away, Chen Luo still wanted to knock her on the head.
"Therefore, the decision is to cancel..."
"It can't be revoked now. You're basically considered to be fleeing from justice. After all, they'll think, 'If you weren't guilty, why would you run away?' And so much time has passed. If you really did commit the crime, it would be enough time for you to destroy the evidence."
"And another thing, you're unlucky to have run away with the Childe. Who is the Childe? He's the Harbinger of the Fatui."
Of course, this can't be blamed on Lumine, since she didn't know the other Lumine was Childe.
"If you hadn't run away in the first place, Liyue would have had a 10% suspicion rate towards you. If you had run away, the suspicion rate would have risen to 50%. But if you ran away with the Childe, the suspicion rate would have risen to 80%."
"If I didn't know you, I would also think you must have done something wrong," Chen Luo said helplessly.
"So..."
