[Dominance · Dollmaker]

"Uh, that makes sense." Although Chen Luo had just used the fact that the other party didn't know about firewood and rice to refute Mobius's generosity, Chen Luo had to admit that Mobius was right.

If Chen Luo had truly decided not to buy it, Chen Luo wouldn't have mentioned it to Mobius earlier.

Chen Luo had already spent 1000 Primogem to buy the Doctor related to Honkai energy.

Chen Luo had never spent this much money before, except for purchasing S-rank Talent.

This was truly heartbreaking for Chen Luo.

Although you can use crystals to buy many items in the Honkai World, this ability is performed by the Doctor, so you can't use crystals to replace Primogem.

It's strange, but although crystals and Primogem are equivalent in some respects, Chen Luo didn't hesitate much when spending on crystals, but felt quite heartbroken when spending on Primogem.

"So hurry up and buy knowledge about trees and the sea. Knowledge is something that can be shared." Mobius's eyes gleamed as he persuaded Chen Luo.

"Is this your real purpose?" Chen Luo retorted.

"While I don't deny that I'm eager to study the knowledge of the Tree and Sea, I also don't deny that I'm doing this for your own good." Mobius did not deny Chen Luo's words.

Mobius disdained lying, unless it was to lure mice.

"Since you put it that way, I'll think about it." Chen Luo then fell silent.

Meanwhile, Mobius waited quietly over there.

"Alright, 10 seconds have passed. Have you made up your mind? Hurry up and buy it," Mobius suddenly said.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Tree and Sea]: Mobius wants more knowledge about the Tree and Sea, and hopes you can learn some after purchasing this knowledge. Please purchase the knowledge about the Tree and Sea and share it with Mobius.

Reward: 500 Primogem + random reward.

Difficulty: 3 stars

Special requirements: You will receive a progress bar after accepting the task. You will receive all rewards once the progress bar reaches 100%.

(You will immediately receive 200 Primogem + a random reward upon purchase. Subsequent rewards will be distributed based on the sharing activity.)

Goodness, it turns out to be a long-term mission.

Fortunately, even without further rewards, the initial stage rewards are enough. After all, while Primogem are important, random rewards are even more so.

"I'm the one buying things, why are you more anxious than me? Besides, 10 seconds isn't enough time for a normal person to think," Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Mobius.

In fact, Chen Luo was already quite satisfied that Mobius could provide some of the Primogem for this matter.

"But I think normal people don't need to think about it. So just buy it." Just as Chen Luo said, Mobius was now even more anxious than Chen Luo.

Although Mobius respects whatever decision Chen Luo makes, Mobius doesn't mind guiding the decision-making process himself.

Just kidding, the knowledge of the Tree and Sea is priceless.

"Okay, okay, I got it, I've decided to buy it." Chen Luo nodded.

"Great! Have you bought it yet?"

"Without..."

"You'd better hurry up and buy it."

"The problem is that I've never bought this before, and just the knowledge about the Tree and Sea is definitely a huge amount of information. I'm worried that if I buy it now, I might be in a daze for a day or two to digest all this knowledge. And I promised to report to your lab tomorrow, so in order to get priority for reporting to your lab, I've decided to buy it after I've reported there," Chen Luo said.

"What's more important than going to the lab to report for duty? Buying Tree and Sea is no problem. I'll allow you to delay for another day, or even a few more days!" Mobius expressed his understanding and permission for Chen Luo to postpone his report to the lab.

"I don't think so. I've already promised you several times, and I really can't go back on my word again." Chen Luo shook his head at Mobius's statement.

"I think it's fine! You've stood me up so many times already, one more delay won't hurt. Knowledge is more important right now."

"No, I think keeping the appointment is more important." Chen Luo continued to shake his head.

LOL, if I don't go to the lab tomorrow, will you compensate me for the lost mission Primogem?

Don't forget, Chen Luo also accepted the task of reporting to the lab on time.

"..." Mobius rubbed his forehead in exasperation at Chen Luo.

This person is really...

When I tell you to report to the lab on time, you don't; when I tell you not to report on time, you still insist on going.

There's no place for you in the lab! You don't need to come!

Mobius really wanted to say that to Chen Luo.

Mobius was now unsure whether to be happy that Chen Luo valued their agreement or angry that Chen Luo refused to buy the knowledge.

Seeing this situation, Chen Luo felt helpless; the current situation had reached a point where neither side could back down.

After all, Chen Luo was after the Primogem, while Mobius was after knowledge.

Saying that there's no room for compromise is a bit of an exaggeration. Anyway, even if we make Mobius wait, it's only one more day.

Why is it that the commission to report to the lab has a time limit, while the commission to purchase knowledge has no time limit?

"Um, Snake Snake, I have another option, how about you..."

"Don't bother me, go play somewhere else." Mobius waved his hand dismissively.

Mobius is now terrified that Chen Luo will bring up something he is particularly interested in, and then, for some ridiculous reason, he will suffer from extreme procrastination.

Mobius said his blood pressure had gone up.

"Oh, okay." After being firmly rejected, Chen Luo could only take out his Talent Upgrade Card by himself and scan his talents.

As someone who suffers from decision-making difficulties, having to upgrade only one talent when he can't have it all is a torment for Chen Luo.

Chen Luo originally wanted to ask Mobius for his opinion, but Mobius seemed a little angry.

Herrscher of Thunder

Herrscher of Void

Those Herrscher of Knowledge

Herrscher of Corrosion

The Herrscher of Domination

Fate Threads

Unlimited

This is Chen Luo's current S-rank Talent.

Well, it's a mixed bag.

However, although there are many S-rank Talent options, not all of them are worth upgrading.

The Herrscher of Thunder, the Herrscher of Void, and the Herrscher of Corrosion.

Of these three Herrscher abilities, Chen Luo doesn't use the first two much, and the S-rank talent is enough for the last one, so these three can be ruled out for now.

Due to its unique mutability, the Herrscher of Knowledge's abilities are gradually breaking through to a higher level. Since the Herrscher of Knowledge already possesses the potential to break through to a higher level, Chen Luo no longer needs to use precious Talent Upgrade Card to upgrade it.

So now all that's left are the Herrscher of Domination, Fate Threads, and Infinity.

There's not much to say about the [Fate Threads] ability. The S-rank Fate Threads already provides significant support to Chen Luo, and the Fate Line ability inherently possesses a certain high-end attribute.

Chen Luo didn't quite believe that the upper limit of Destiny Ability was only S-level.

The [Infinite] ability includes the Infinite Serpent and the ability to resurrect.

The resurrection ability... Chen Luo has never used it yet, but the Infinite Serpent is truly powerful.

And the [Herrscher of Domination]...

Although the Herrscher of Domination is truly the weakest among all the Herrscher in terms of combat strength, the trouble she causes to her enemies is truly immense.

Moreover, the Herrscher of Domination holds a special significance for Chen Luo.

Puppeteer.

Rather than saying that the Stigmata Puppeteer can better assist the Herrscher of Domination's abilities and characteristics, it would be more accurate to say that the Herrscher of Domination is a byproduct of the Puppet Master.

Don't forget, how did the Herrscher of Domination end up in Chen Luo's hands?

That's because Chen Luo obtained the Puppet Master's Stigmata, which is why the Herrscher of Domination chose Chen Luo.

The Herrscher of Domination, the Puppeteer profession, and the Puppeteer Stigmata are a perfect match.

Moreover, upgrading the Herrscher of Domination's talents is probably even more urgent than Fate Threads.

Chen Luo has only recently acquired the Fate Threads ability and hasn't fully unlocked its potential yet. Moreover, the Fate Threads ability might even be able to level up on its own, given the noble nature of the Fate attribute.

However, Herrscher abilities will not break through levels unless there are special circumstances, because these are powers granted to Herrscher by Honkai.

Note that it is a gift.

Whether it can be taken back is another matter, but it does limit the scope.

They are at their peak from birth, with an exceptionally fast initial growth rate, but they cannot surpass that peak.

The reason why talents like the Herrscher, which represent the limits of physics, are only S-rank Talent is precisely because of this.

Of course, you can also work hard to learn physics to unleash your full potential.

However... Chen Luo is still exploring the other Herrscher talents, and the potential of the Herrscher of Domination has already reached its limit.

Furthermore, as Chen Luo may encounter even stranger enemies with higher talent levels in the future, the dominance of his S-rank Talent may not be able to completely transform them into puppets.

If Chen Luo were to be betrayed because his talent level wasn't high enough, he would be truly disgusted to death.

And if one's Herrscher of Domination talent is SS rank...

Is it possible that Chen Luo could gain a follower named "Vortex Archon" today?

Chapter 389 [Domination: Puppeteer]

Higher-level talents always exert a certain degree of suppression on lower-level talents.

The current levels of the Herrscher of Thunder, Herrscher of Void, and Herrscher of Corrosion are sufficient.

The Herrscher of Knowledge, the Fate Threads, and the Infinity itself possess growth attributes; they have the potential to break through to higher levels.

At the same time, what Chen Luo urgently needs right now is not overwhelming combat power, because many of Chen Luo's tools can achieve the same level.

No matter how skilled you are, after you get shot, won't you still be laughing like a dog within 10 minutes?

Even Osial laughed for a full 10 minutes, which shows that at least a Demon God-level powerhouse cannot weaken the effect of the Friendship Revolver.

What Chen Luo needs now is a functional talent that can solve most of the commissioned tasks.

Therefore, considering only cost-effectiveness, the functional Herrscher of Domination becomes the best choice.

Moreover, the Herrscher of Domination ability was the earliest S-rank Talent Chen Luo obtained, and Chen Luo has already reached the limit of its development.

Because the powers of the Herrscher of Domination are different from those of other Herrscher, the Herrscher of Domination, regardless of the civilization, is used to deal with others with the power of the group, focusing on the group rather than individual combat strength.

This means that its functionality has an upper limit from the beginning.

No matter how much you try, you'll never come up with anything amazing.

And don't forget, the silk thread that Chen Luo usually uses is itself one of the manifestations of the power of the Herrscher of Domination.

So for now, we can only make do with Infinite and Fate Threads.

The Herrscher of Knowledge? There's not much to worry about, because Chen Luo has two Herrscher of Knowledge, which together are roughly equivalent to an SS-rank Talent.

The Herrscher of Herrscher of Domination's talent has been with Chen Luo for so long, yet its price has never increased.

And the price of Infinity keeps rising as it is devoured by the Infinite Serpent.

Furthermore, the unlimited resurrection power and the Infinite Serpent itself already make it expensive, not just 10,000 Primogem.

The resurrection itself costs 10,000 Primogem, and the Man-made Collapse form costs 8,000 Primogem, for a total of 18,000 Primogem.

Of course, due to various discounts, Chen Luo ended up buying it for a total of 8100 crystals.

A 50% discount means you can do whatever you want.

However, after being integrated by Chen Luo, this talent became priced at 15,000 Primogem. After consuming a lot of things, undergoing the baptism of the Demon Realm, and eating an Osial, the price became 17,000 Primogem.

The future is promising.

Chen Luo guessed that for S-rank Talent to break through to SS-rank Talent, its value would need to be increased to 20,000 Primogem.
