Chen Luo: Give Me Ten Minutes, and I'll Buff Snake
After all, it's just a right to be a candidate, and what would Chen Luo do if he became the Geo Archon? What benefits would he get?
The Gnosis? Chen Luo already had that.
The power of the Dominus Lapidis, judging from the description, should be Zhongli's elemental combat skill, which is to give himself a shield.
Zhongli's elemental combat skill is called [Dominus Lapidis], and the description is exactly the same. Moreover, it may have other unexpected effects. In short, this skill is very satisfactory to Chen Luo.
Putting everything else aside, even without other rewards, this one reward alone is enough to make it worthwhile.
Oh wait, Chen Luo didn't have much cost either.
The skill/ Talent Upgrade Card made Chen Luo drool with emotion.
According to the description, this item appears randomly, and may include Skill Upgrade Card or Talent Upgrade Card.
The effect of the upgrade card is quite simple and straightforward: it raises the talent cap by one level.
Talent Upgrade Card:
The original S-rank Talent can be upgraded to SS-rank Talent.
Originally, he had SS-rank Talent... Oh, Chen Luo didn't have SS-rank Talent.
The same applies to Skill Upgrade Card.
The only difference is that the other party's standards have changed to beginner → proficient → expert → master → grandmaster.
Unfortunately, perhaps because this is only Three-star Special Mission, the Talent Upgrade Card given can only upgrade the talent to SS rank and the skill to Grandmaster level.
And if there are any more valuable missions in the future, perhaps we can draw advanced talent cards and advanced skill cards.
However, this made Chen Luo realize that there was indeed another realm above the Grandmaster, or at least one more realm.
SSS-level talent is the highest level of talent.
Ex does not count.
The realm above Grandmaster is probably the highest realm, right?
However, even if it wasn't a high-level talent or skill card, it was still enough to make Chen Luo drool.
To be honest, Yakumo Yukari's talent is an SS-rank Talent. Based on her price, it would cost more than 20,000 Primogem to buy an SS-rank Talent.
Chen Luo had seen that S-rank Talent usually cost at least 10,000, and the price difference was about 10,000, which shows how precious this talent card was.
More importantly, some talents are incredibly powerful, but their ceiling is only S-level. Or rather, Chen Luo has only ever encountered talents at this level.
Take the Fate Threads ability, for example. It doesn't look like an S-rank Talent at all, but it is.
If we could upgrade it to an SS-rank Talent, wouldn't that be incredibly awesome?
That being said, what Chen Luo really wanted was not the Talent Upgrade Card, but the Skill Upgrade Card.
Waaaaah, I'm Furniture Mastery...
Chen Luo discovered that his long-cherished Furniture Mastery seemed to have a real way to be upgraded.
Furniture Mastery has always been a god in Chen Luo's heart.
Under the influence of the Herrscher of Knowledge, the Furniture Mastery skill, which comes with mastery of all items, is not only extremely practical, but it is also the skill that has been with Chen Luo the longest. Even now, its value is such that Chen Luo cannot live without it.
It can be said that this skill is the most valuable skill besides the EX-class Talent [Traveler] itself.
Chen Luo had always wanted to upgrade the other party.
However, sometimes you can't buy certain things just because you have the Primogem, because the other party doesn't sell them.
Just like Chen Luo wanted to buy the Fate Threads, SS-rank Talent, but couldn't, because Aponia's talent was only S-level.
If spending 20,000 Primogem could upgrade Furniture Mastery, Chen Luo would upgrade without hesitation.
How could a mere 20,000 Primogem compare to my Furniture Mastery?
And now, the opportunity has arrived.
After becoming a Furniture Mastery master, Chen Luo can now become a master of all furniture categories. At that time, Chen Luo's transformation will be beyond what can be described as a qualitative change.
Master puppeteers can create soul puppets, and can even resurrect Yvette as a puppet.
Master-level Herrscher Authority are already capable of shattering darkness with lightning.
The master alchemists are almost catching up with Albedo.
It can be said that the best reward for Chen Luo from this choice is the Skill Upgrade Card, and the guaranteed reward is the Talent Upgrade Card. Either way, they are priceless.
The good news is that you can choose which user to use these upgrade cards on; the bad news is that they appear randomly...
It's time to gamble on luck...
Chen Luo wants them all!
After seeing the Hydro Elemental Bullet above the other person's head completely disappear, Chen Luo silently put away his flute.
"Hmm? Why did you stop blowing?" Ying asked.
"It's getting cold."
"Uh, what do you mean?"
"Osial is finished too," Chen Luo said coldly.
"So you're calling yourself the Osial, the Vortex Archon?!" Chen Luo stepped forward and gave the Osial, the Vortex Archon the middle finger.
At the same time, countless silk threads suddenly surged out in front of the Jade Chamber, slowly weaving into a giant middle finger.
"Awooo!" Hearing Chen Luo's provocation and seeing the huge middle finger, even though the Osial, the Vortex Archon hated Liyue, he didn't mind slapping this provocative little bug to death before destroying Liyue.
And it just so happened to be on the way...
"Chen Luo, are you crazy?" Keqing, who had just found a suitable stool, was dumbfounded.
"Hahahaha, crazy? How could that be? Even if I am crazy, before I go crazy, I will beat the Vortex Archon so badly that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him! Come out, Infinite Serpent!" Chen Luo shouted excitedly.
Chen Luo's shadow began to stir, and at the same time, a chilling and deadly feeling suddenly crept into everyone's hearts.
A giant, dark green snake, as beautiful as a jewel, emerged from Chen Luo's shadow.
"Show your true colors," Chen Luo said, glancing at Infinite Serpent.
"Hiss!" The Infinite Serpent hissed, transforming from its original giant python form into a half-human, half-serpent shape.
And this unleashing of potential amplifies that chilling feeling.
If it weren't for the fact that the terrifying giant serpent in front of them was summoned by Chen Luo, everyone would probably already be on high alert.
"How is that possible? Yesterday, when you summoned this snake, it didn't seem this threatening." Infinite Serpent, who had witnessed the Infinite Serpent yesterday, stared at it in disbelief.
"After all, it has undergone a transformation. It's only a little over half a month old. It's normal for it to grow overnight," Chen Luo said, patting the head of the Infinite Serpent that had bent down.
"Take the weapons I prepared for you and go. I'll buff you from behind." With that, Chen Luo tossed the two items at his feet.
The crowd looked at the two items: a shield and a round saw.
The shield was a familiar Hilichurl Wooden Shield, but no one noticed anything unusual about the saw.
Shield: The Hilichurl Wooden Shield.
Circular Saw: Ghost Shark
The wooden shield needs no further explanation; it even made an appearance just now.
The Ghost Shark was a 4-star item that Chen Luo had drawn before; as for its effects...
Simply put, this is a 4-star upgradeable long-handled gear chainsaw.
When it inflicts damage on the opponent, it can cause the target to bleed, and the wound is extremely difficult to heal.
That's not the key point; the key point is its special effect, which is its special attack.
Against Chaos special attacks, damage is increased by 50%, and true damage is added. And Osial is a demon god, belonging to either the Chaos pantheon or the Chaos faction.
When in the sea, water, or lake, all attributes are increased by 20%, ignoring environmental differences. And now we are in the sea.
Special attack against giant creatures, all attributes are increased by 20%, and it is easier to inflict fatal damage on large creatures.
The area-of-effect attack can expend a certain amount of spiritual or magical energy to summon a giant chainsaw, dealing area-of-effect damage and splash damage to surrounding enemies. Coincidentally, Osial has several heads, so Chen Luo can absorb the spiritual or magical energy required to summon the giant chainsaw.
The Hilichurl Wooden Shield is only weak against fire-type attacks; otherwise, it is fearless and can adapt to the user's size.
The Vortex Archon Osai, he only knows water-attribute attacks, what fire-attribute attacks does he know?
As the Infinite Serpent passed by the two weapons, it swallowed them whole and then jumped down from the Jade Chamber.
The flight altitude of Jade Chamber is very high, so it took a while before a splash was heard.
At this moment, the Vortex Archon was already very close to the Jade Chamber.
"Step back a bit, or you'll easily get caught in the crossfire." After saying that, Chen Luo sat down on the stool that Keqing had just brought over, and then took out an erhu.
Ningguang nodded and controlled the Jade Chamber to fly backward.
Standing on the edge of the Jade Chamber, the group looked down and saw that something huge seemed to have suddenly appeared in the sea, with shadows surging around it.
The next moment, a huge figure burst out of the water.
"Aaaaaa——" A huge roar, different from that of the Vortex Archon, rang out. A half-human, half-snake figure grew at a visible speed, and finally stopped when it became about the same size as the Vortex Archon.
The dark green figure was immediately recognized by everyone as the giant snake that Chen Luo had summoned earlier.
After undergoing its baptism, the Infinite Serpent can not only grow from over 50 meters tall to a three-meter giant serpent, but it can also grow from small to large, and even become larger.
When Infinite Serpent is in its half-human, half-serpent form, it has hands. At this time, Infinite Serpent holds a shield almost the same size as itself in its left hand, and a giant, long-handled geared chainsaw that is spinning wildly in its other hand.
To be honest, the giant, dark green Infinite Serpent, exuding a chilling aura, doesn't look like a righteous character who is about to defeat the Vortex Archon and save all living beings. Instead, it looks more like a villain than the Vortex Archon.
At least the Vortex Archon is the color of water.
The Infinite Serpent is dark green.
At the same time, the Infinite Serpent, exuding a demonic aura, seemed to prove that the other party was not a proper giant serpent.
"What a powerful giant serpent! Its aura is only slightly weaker than that of the Osial, the Vortex Archon. However, the Vortex Archon has been suppressed for over 2,000 years, so its strength should have declined as well." Cloud Retainer looked at the Infinite Serpent with great seriousness.
Moreover, there was something that Cloud Retainer didn't say, for fear of causing any misunderstanding.
That is, this giant snake looks even more like a demon god than the Vortex Archon.
Although the other party exudes a strange beauty, it must be said that the appearance of the Osial, the Vortex Archon is quite good-looking.
At the same time, it is precisely this eerie beauty that makes others more wary.
Chapter 369 Chen Luo: Give me ten minutes, I'll buff Snake Snake.
"Hopefully, this giant serpent can defeat the Osial, the Vortex Archon," Ningguang said after a moment of silence.
Although Ningguang knew that judging people by their appearance was not a good thing, she still felt that this Infinite Serpent seemed very dangerous.
More dangerous than the Vortex Archon.
But at least for now, the other side seems to be on our side... Snake.
"Chen Luo, wait, what are you doing?" Ying originally wanted to ask Chen Luo some questions, but she saw Chen Luo taking something out of the void.
Hmm, two oddly shaped dolls.
"What's the use of these two... beginner-level Mechanical Doll?" Cloud Retainer asked, puzzled.
It wasn't that Cloud Retainer wanted to say anything; the main issue was that the two puppets Chen Luo took out were both wooden puppets, the kind of simple Mechanical Doll that only a novice would make.
"Just for decoration," Chen Luo said.
Stigmata: Puppeteer.
Effect 1: Increases the damage dealt by your summoned creatures by 60%.
Effect 2: While on the field, for each additional summoned unit on your side, your total damage increases by 20%, stacking up to 5 times.
Since the Infinite Serpent is a manifestation of Chen Luo's talent, it is considered both a summon of Chen Luo and Chen Luo himself, so it can benefit from both effects.
The Infinite Serpent, the Holy Sword Durandal, Sirin, and the two puppets next to Chen Luo, which are just for decoration, make up a total of five summonable creatures.
Chen Luo's total damage is increased by 100%, and the total damage of Infinite Serpent is increased by 100%. Furthermore, since Infinite Serpent is a summoned creature, its damage to the opponent is increased by an additional 60%.
Chaos Special Attack damage increased by 50%.
