And most importantly, not every Flame-Chaser has the ability to tear apart Flame-Chasers like Herrscher.

13. Ultimately, the Flame-Chasers are just special beings. Those Herrscher can survive the tragedy of the constraints must possess some unique qualities.

This time, Pardo is an exception, because Pardo's strong luck is the opponent's talent.

Although the opponent's strength is indeed not that great, they are very lucky.

The fact that Flame-Chaser could be bedridden due to a cold is truly shocking, and it has stunned Honkai 3rd for a whole year.

However, it was precisely because of this cold that the other party was able to survive the tragic restraint incident.

Otherwise, with Little Pardo's strength, even being cannon fodder would be a stretch.

Many Flame-Chaser possess strength at the level of "extremely excellent warriors" despite bearing an extremely high chance of death.

Well, just a warrior...

As both the successful fusion surgeon and the one who performed the fusion surgery, and also the head of the Demon Lab, Mobius's reputation is not very good.

Or rather, it was terrible.

"If I remember correctly, according to the normal procedure, we should now go and collect your Fire Moth researcher's standard equipment, arrange your dormitory and meal card, and so on," Mobius said as he led Chen Luo through the complex Fire Moth.

"Since this is how it's done normally, then tell me what's not normal." Chen Luo understood what Mobius wanted to say from Mobius's perspective.

"Just go to my lab and check in. Isn't that what you're after? After you check in, buy the knowledge, then get a good night's sleep. When you wake up, we can discuss the knowledge of the Tree and Sea." Mobius decided.

"... Isn't this a bit too hasty? You should at least help me with things like meal cards and accommodation, otherwise where am I supposed to stay?"

"Do you need to eat and sleep in this world?" Mobius glanced at Chen Luo.

"Although it's not necessary, we still have to make an appearance," Chen Luo said matter-of-factly.

Chen Luo was still thinking about developing further in this world, since post-apocalyptic worlds are not easy to encounter. Although there are indeed many post-apocalyptic worlds among countless worlds, Chen Luo has only encountered this Previous Era world so far.

Moreover, now that he has received the favor of his future self, he should start preparing for his past self. At the very least, he should build good relationships with those Flame-Chasers in this world, since Flame-Chasers abilities are quite Herrscher of the Heart.

Upon closer reflection, Chen Luo realized that he had quite a lot to do in the Previous Era, so a base was essential.

"In the cafeteria, you can use your work ID or your meal card to pay, which is like paying with your face. Although the work of the Fire Moth' is somewhat dangerous, the benefits are very good. As long as you don't eat one serving and throw away ten, you won't reach the limit on your meal card. So there's no need to get a special meal card."

"But we need to arrange accommodation, right?"

"No need to do anything. Just use the communicator to notify the welcoming staff that you can sleep in my dorm from now on. It will Fire Moth you a dorm room and make it easier for you to go home to sleep every day. After all, you can't stay in the lab all day, can you? You're very busy."

When Chen Luo heard Mobius use honorifics, he knew that Mobius was still upset that Chen Luo had stood her up for several days. However, Chen Luo couldn't deny or guarantee anything because Chen Luo was really busy.

Although Chen Luo didn't know what he was busy with, Chen Luo was really busy.

From posting missing cat notices to saving the world, Chen Luo would give up all other work as long as he could get the Primogem.

Chen Luo could never imagine what his next mission would be.

Moreover, Chen Luo still has a lot of things to do within his own main world.

However, Chen Luo still has less than half a day of leisure time each day, which he can use to improve his scientific literacy and incidentally collect Primogem.

Yes, it was just a side effect.

In the end times, there are many desires arising from the need to survive.

Although the Previous Era is not yet the end of the world, it is close. It already has the Honkai Sickness, and as a Honkai phenomenon, it spreads extremely quickly and over a wide area.

If we were to comment on the world after the Seventh Honkai Outbreak, there's a fitting description.

That is the Terra Continent.

You can think of the current Previous Era as the Terra Continent ravaged by Orehaze. It's just that the Honkai Sickness itself cannot provide the afflicted with that special power.

Although the Honkai has claimed countless lives, civilization continues to develop, society continues to progress, and order has not yet broken down.

It's just that the existence of Honkai can no longer be concealed.

Although Chen Luo now has a way to go to the Terra Continent, the problem is that it's Previous Era, which is more valuable for development.

Besides, Chen Luo only knows one person named Ling in the Terra Continent.

Under Chen Luo's reasoned argument and insistence, Mobius had no choice but to reluctantly waste another bit of Chen Luo's time and accompany him through the entire procedure.

The process wasn't actually that complicated; Fire Moth was quite efficient, especially when Mobius was there.

It was impossible not to process the application for Mobius; after all, he was the head of a key laboratory at the Fire Moth. Besides, these people were also afraid of Mobius.

What if you suddenly faint while walking through the Fire Chaser's Pavilion, and when you wake up you find yourself on Mobius's experimental table...?

No one would have imagined receiving such an honor.

"Oh my, isn't this Mobius? Long time no see. Who is this?" After Mobius finally finished accompanying Chen Luo through the procedures and arranged for Chen Luo to stay next to his dormitory, Mobius ran into someone he didn't want to see right now.

Chen Luo, who was flipping through the newly acquired "Fire Moth Employee Handbook," looked up after hearing that familiar voice.

"Elysia, is there something you need? If not, I'm leaving." When Mobius saw Elysia approaching, he barely raised his eyelids, and after saying that, he planned to leave with Chen Luo.

Elysia can be considered a rare heartthrob among the Fire Moth.

Even after the other party became Flame-Chaser, this remained the case.

No one dislikes Miss Elysia.

No one could refuse Miss Elysia.

Elysia loves everyone, including Mobius.

Therefore, it's understandable that Elysia would approach and show concern when she saw Mobius being treated with awe by others.

However, Mobius was clearly not interested in this good intention; all Mobius wanted to do was get Chen Luo to the lab to sign in as soon as possible.

"Don't be so cold, it's not easy to meet you. The young man next to you... seems quite friendly. Hello, my name is Elysia, please take care of me in the future." Elysia leaned closer to Chen Luo, glanced at his name tag, and then extended her hand to Chen Luo.

"Ah, hello, my name is Luo." Chen Luo was not opposed to Elysia's initiative.

After their brief separation, Chen Luo received a message from the other party.

Elysia

Discount: 8.4% (50% off)

The following is Elysia's future favorability discount, while the previous one is clearly the present one.

This discount is undoubtedly slightly lower than the discount a normal person would receive when meeting Chen Luo.

Normally, even with Chen Luo's achievements like "The Chen the Great Philanthropist" and "Friend of the Non-Human," the discount should only be 10% at most, because the other party is neither a loli nor a child, nor a citizen of Mondstadt.

Such a low discount shows that the other party truly loves everyone and is friendly to everyone.

"An assistant? To be able to enter Merius's experiment as a research assistant at such a young age is truly remarkable." Elysia was slightly surprised when she saw Chen Luo's identity.

After all, Elysia knew how strict Mobius was in selecting people.

The key point is that the other party is still so young.

"I hope I can get a permanent position in the future. Doctor Mobius has taught me a lot," Chen Luo said.

Chen Luo's age doesn't look like that of an adult at all. However, there isn't much difference between 17 and 18 years old. But one is an adult and the other is a minor, so Mobius raised Chen Luo's age by one year and wrote that he was 18 years old.

"Luo, how is this name written... Are you also from the East? Like Hua and Ying?" Elysia asked after staring at Chen Luo's name and appearance for a while.

"Yes, that's right."

In Previous Era, people in the East mostly used pinyin for their names, and these names were often single characters.

Such as Su, Mei, Hua...

Chen Luo is also preparing to follow the trend.

"Huh? Is someone calling me?" Just as Chen Luo finished speaking, a voice rang out nearby, and a figure walked out from around the corner.

A trace of sadness still lingered on her beautiful face, her eyes were somewhat dim, and she wore a Fire Moth combat suit.

The other person looked only slightly older than Chen Luo, at most the age of someone in college.

"Oh, it's Hua. Long time no see."

Chen Luo was too preoccupied to care about the other person at the moment, and instinctively covered his chest.

The Herrscher of Knowledge residing in Chen Luo's sea of consciousness is becoming restless.

[He's an old relic, a young and still immature old relic! Ah, I'm dead!]

This is roughly what the Herrscher of Knowledge wanted to say.

It took Chen Luo several seconds to completely subdue Herrscher of Knowledge. However, after Chen Luo regained consciousness, he found that Mobius had a strange look on his face, Elysia had a teasing look on her face, and Hua seemed to want to avoid Chen Luo's gaze.

"???"

What happen?

"Staring so intently at a girl you just met, could it be... love at first sight?" Elysia asked Chen Luo as she leaned closer.

"!!!"

Chen Luo just realized that during the ten or so seconds he was distracted and trying to comfort Herrscher of Knowledge, his eyes had been fixed on Hua.

Damn it! Xiao Shi! You've missed dinner!

No, lunch is gone too!

Chapter 395 Cang Xuan and Danzhu

Chen Luo covered his face and followed Mobius toward the other's laboratory, feeling utterly hopeless.

I was so embarrassed just now.

Little Shi, you'll see what happens to you later.

Upon seeing a beautiful girl, the first thing that comes to mind is staring at her intently for about ten seconds. Who wouldn't be intimidated by that?

Although Fu Hua didn't show much resistance, the other party's evasive gaze seemed to say it all.

The good news is that when Chen Luo shook hands with the other party, the discount was 90%.

Although it's 0.6% less than Elysia's 8.4% discount, firstly, the other party isn't Flame-Chaser yet and can't exert the effect of Friend of the Non-Human, and secondly, Chen Luo's performance just now was indeed a bit abrupt.

Fortunately, a 10% discount is still enough to get a good deal for acquaintances.

"Mobius, just now..."

"You don't need to explain to me. It's your freedom to like whomever you want..." Mobius said calmly as he walked ahead.

"Uh..." Although Mobius told Chen Luo not to worry about it.

But Chen Luo's intuition told Chen Luo that it was best to explain more now.

Sometimes, talking a lot of nonsense isn't a bad thing.

"You've been to bars before, so you probably know that guy who looks a lot like Hua, right? The one who's always following me around..."

Everyone who had been to the bar knew about the existence of the Herrscher of Knowledge, but Chen Luo had never told the Herrscher of Knowledge what his identity was.

The Herrscher of Knowledge's identity in the bar is actually very complicated. Because the Herrscher of Knowledge loves to have fun, she likes to make up identities for herself. Currently, the Herrscher of Knowledge has identities including, but not limited to, Hua, a warrior from Previous Era, Fu Hua from the future, and so on.

"Of course I know, but I really don't care. You don't need to tell me these things."

"I know you don't care, and I'm not going to explain it to you, I'm just stating a fact." Chen Luo took two steps forward, changing from following behind Mobius to walking alongside him.

No, I sense that you care a lot.

These are Chen Luo's true feelings.

"Her identity is actually..." Just as he was about to reveal the identity of the Herrscher of Knowledge, Chen Luo suddenly stopped.

"Speak up?" Mobius turned to look at Chen Luo.

You still say you don't care.

Chen Luo's eyes were full of teasing, but he didn't dare to actually say the flirtatious words.

Being caught red-handed is one thing, but having someone reveal that red-handed is another.

"Ahem, as for her identity, you should have guessed by now. That's right, she is Hua, or more precisely, 50,000 years in the future," Chen Luo said.
