It seemed that from now on, there would not only be friends and enemies among the factions, but also a dead person.
As Chen Luo thought this, he directly summoned the bar and walked in through the living room.
After entering, Chen Luo stared at Yvette's corpse in his backpack and fell into thought.
How should he deal with this thing?
If he simply wanted to destroy the corpse and erase the evidence, it would be easy enough. When he went to the Honkai World tomorrow, he could just toss it away.
But Chen Luo felt that since she had been an S-rank Talent User, her body should be quite valuable too.
After all, she had been an S-rank Talent User.
Unfortunately, his talent panel did not accept corpses. Otherwise, selling it directly to the talent panel would have been much more convenient.
As for selling it to Mobius, she would probably be quite interested, but Chen Luo was afraid she might create some unforeseen trouble.
After all, this was an angel. Though she was dead now, who knew whether Mobius could extract something strange from her body?
If Mobius really managed to create something... then it would be hard to say whether the Herrscher of the End could still defeat the Previous Era.
From the price of the Herrscher of Knowledge Core, Chen Luo could tell that the Herrscher of Knowledge Core and a Gnosis were worth the same amount, which was also roughly the price of an ordinary S-rank Talent.
But Herrscher Authorities and Cores had their limits. Yvette's talent was worth 2,000 Primogems more than a Herrscher Core, and it even had the potential to break through its rank.
Even if the Herrscher of the End's Authority was much stronger than the Herrscher of Knowledge's, it was uncertain whether it could compare to an SS-rank Talent.
After all, no matter how powerful she was, she was ultimately still just a Herrscher.
If the Honkai World of the Previous Era became a world where angels filled the skies...
Then defeating the Honkai would truly not be impossible, but Theresa's world would undergo enormous changes as a result.
Chen Luo shook his head and threw that crazy idea out of his mind.
Chen Luo was willing to change tragedies, but not at the cost of an entire world.
If the past were truly changed, the future would inevitably change accordingly.
"I'll just leave this corpse in my backpack. It's huge anyway," Chen Luo muttered.
Then Chen Luo turned his gaze toward the last thing Yvette had left behind—the storage ring that could absolutely be called priceless.
Storage rings were already extremely expensive, and with all the valuable things she had stored inside, their value rose even higher.
So Chen Luo decided...
Sale successful. You have obtained 1,524 Primogems.
Chen Luo decided to sell the thing to the talent panel.
What a joke. Taking something like this outside was practically asking to die. The items inside were indeed precious, but Chen Luo did not dare use them at all.
She had said during their conversation that the War Domain could prevent detection by Prophecy Talent Users. That meant such Talent Users truly existed in this world.
What if he used those things and was found by a Prophecy Talent User?
Chen Luo had at least some awareness that he was still in his growth phase.
Especially after seeing the storage ring's description on her panel, Chen Luo wanted it even less.
Angel Ring: A storage ring with an enormous Storage Space. However, its more important function is monitoring its owner's vital signs.
No wonder she had handed over her things so readily. So this was how she planned to screw him over.
The talent panel's half-price buyback was a little too ruthless, though.
"Ah, you really never know whether an accident or a ten-pull will come first."
Chen Luo had originally wondered when he would save up enough for two ten-pulls. He had not expected that just one ring and the items inside would be worth a ten-pull.
Yvette was practically a walking fortune.
Murdering someone and taking their belongings really was the fastest way to make money.
After working hard for an entire week, he had saved up 1,830 Primogems.
But killing one Yvette had earned him 3,124 Primogems.
Life really was unpredictable...

A Sudden Fortune? Pulling! (4K)
Chen Luo stared at the Primogem interface and fell into thought as he looked at the 4,954 Primogems.
Then Chen Luo reached toward the talent panel, and when he pulled his hand back, a glittering object appeared in it.
"One Primogem can produce one gemstone. What about 4,954 Primogems?" Chen Luo muttered.
Then, in the next instant, Chen Luo understood.
As his thoughts shifted, it was as though a huge hole had opened in the space where his talent panel was located. Countless gemstones poured out, instantly covering the entire floor in a thick layer.
"Ah... Primogems." Chen Luo lay directly atop the pile of gems, a blissful smile appearing on his face.
Chen Luo suspected that even if he did not use these Primogems for pulling, taking out one and selling it would probably fetch quite a price.
After all, it truly looked like a perfect, strangely shaped, yet completely natural gemstone.
"Wow, what are you doing?" After pushing open the door, the Herrscher of Knowledge saw Chen Luo lying atop a glittering pile of gemstones and playing dead.
When the Herrscher of Knowledge opened the door, some of the gemstones piled near it even spilled outside. Chen Luo immediately sat up, and with a thought, all the gemstones returned to the talent panel.
"Ahem, it's nothing. Why did you come to the bar?" Chen Luo asked after coughing twice.
"My right eyelid suddenly started twitching like crazy. I had a feeling you might have run into some danger, so I hurried back to check on you. I found your bicycle parked outside, but you weren't there, so I came into the bar to look. It seems I was just imagining things." The Herrscher of Knowledge rubbed her temples.
"Eating too much really isn't a good thing," the Herrscher of Knowledge complained.
"No, you weren't imagining it. I did run into danger just now, but I dealt with it. I even killed an S-rank Talent User while I was at it." As Chen Luo spoke, he took out Yvette's corpse.
Perhaps because the residual Angel Power in her body was still at work after her death, the fatal wound on her neck slowly began to heal once she was taken out.
But she was definitely dead.
What concerned Chen Luo even more was the strange connection between himself and the Herrscher of Knowledge. Was that also some special bond formed after becoming family? Like the telepathy between twins?
"An S-rank Talent User? You can defeat an S-rank Talent User?" The Herrscher of Knowledge found it difficult to believe.
If one said Chen Luo was strong, the Herrscher of Knowledge would not deny it. But the current Chen Luo was genuinely not even a match for one of her hands.
In Honkai World terms, an S-rank Talent User was equivalent to a Herrscher, though that only referred to potential.
In the Herrscher of Knowledge's view, this world's S-rank Talent Users had only just awakened their talents, so they should not be as strong as newly born Herrschers.
After all, Herrscher Authorities were obtained in an instant, while talents required time to grow, even if that growth was extremely fast.
But the greatest advantage of this world's Talent Users was that they could grow and break through to become SS-rank Talent Holders.
"How did you beat her? Judging from her corpse alone, I can tell she was definitely a powerful person when she was alive." Though the evidence was right in front of her, the Herrscher of Knowledge was extremely curious about the reason.
"If she had been an S-rank Talent User with some other talent, I definitely could only have run away and then found you to deal with her. But she was an angel."
"So what if she was an angel? Angels are strong too... emmm, that elementary schooler flying kick?"
"Not an elementary schooler flying kick. It was Little Evil God Flying Kick," Chen Luo corrected her.
Since Chen Luo had tested Little Evil God Flying Kick before, the best target had naturally been the Herrscher of Knowledge.
Therefore, the Herrscher of Knowledge had personally experienced this thing's power.
A genuine elementary schooler flying kick.
"Then that really was tragic." The Herrscher of Knowledge clicked her tongue.
A powerful person with potential on the same level as hers had actually died to an elementary schooler flying kick.
She had probably died with her eyes wide open.
"How many Primogems did killing an S-rank powerhouse give you?" Little Senti asked.
"1,000, but her equipment was worth more. Selling it got me 1,500." Chen Luo gave a simple explanation.
"That cheap? An S-rank powerhouse only gives that many Primogems? Who are they trying to fob off?" Little Senti said unhappily.
Did they know how difficult it was to kill someone at the Herrscher level? After finally killing a Herrscher, they only got this many Primogems?
"My talent is more suited to harvesting wishes and completing commissions. Maybe that's why killing gives fewer Primogems." Chen Luo shrugged helplessly.
"Fine. Since you're okay, I'll go get something else to eat. I'm almost back to my old level now, but I feel like I can still eat more. It's like my limit has increased."
After confirming that Chen Luo was truly out of danger, Little Senti said goodbye and left.
"Are you still eating dinner, then?"
"Of course. How could spiritual food be the same as real food?" Little Senti rolled her eyes at Chen Luo.
After watching her leave, Chen Luo looked at the Primogem interface again.
"I have enough for thirty pulls now. Should I try one ten-pull first?" Chen Luo felt tempted as he looked at the enormous sum that had surpassed 4,000 Primogems.
"No, no. I need to save up for a hundred pulls. Once I have a hundred pulls, then I'll see if there are any good things." Chen Luo's rationality stopped him.
"It's like playing Genshin Impact. You can't pull the moment you get Primogems, or you won't get anything good. The pity system is both good and bad." Chen Luo forcibly suppressed his urge to pull.
Ding! Your Primogem reserves are sufficient, so a limited-time event has been activated. During the event, your first ten-pull receives a 1% discount.
The talent panel suddenly issued a notification.
"What a joke. A 1% discount only saves sixteen Primogems. Who would fail to save their Primogems just for a sixteen-Primogem discount?" Chen Luo sneered disdainfully.
Yeah. That person was me. I was the one who couldn't hold onto my Primogems for a sixteen-Primogem discount.
As he watched his hand, completely beyond his control, tap the ten-pull button, Chen Luo wore an expression of despair.
Come on, that was sixteen Primogems. That was more than robbing three Little Loli's Lollipops. Who could resist that?
"Damn it!" Seeing the blue sky, white clouds, and a single purple glow, Chen Luo was already in despair before seeing what he had pulled.
This garbage talent panel had led him astray!
Still, Chen Luo had been mentally prepared. How could a gold five-star item with a guaranteed drop only once every hundred pulls possibly appear on his first ten-pull?
Oh, the previous ten-pull did not count. That had been a beginner benefit that guaranteed gold in ten pulls.
Five-star: None
Four-star: Pet Egg (Cannot Be Hatched)
Three-star: Net of All Directions ×5, Small-Area Person-Finding Talisman
Two-star: Extreme Go-Kart
One-star: Diamond Ring, Bait Mine (10)
"Damn it! Why did you give me so many Nets of All Directions?"
Each Net of All Directions counted as one pull item, and Chen Luo had been given five at once.
Chen Luo could not understand why he had received such a pile of this junk.
Net of All Directions (Advanced Version): Can be used to capture and tame certain intelligent but weak creatures.
As for the only four-star item, the pet egg...
Pet Egg (Armed Puppet Limited Edition): Can hatch an Armed Puppet, but requires the infusion of a soul, personality, or consciousness fragment. Otherwise, it cannot be hatched.
An egg that cannot hatch—what use was this thing to him?
What, did he need to stuff a soul inside before he could use it?
Wait, could the Herrscher of Knowledge work?
Though Chen Luo's thoughts were quite scattered, after his right eyelid twitched several times, he happily gave up on that idea. After all, someone might die.
"I feel like this pet egg could be given to Klein. Isn't Klein about to kick the bucket? No, Mobius seems capable of creating artificial lifeforms. In that case, there was no need for me to go through the trouble..."
