Thinking of this, Chen Luo immediately looked at Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu, who were slacking off.

But then I realized that the other party had already eaten the Heavenly Scented Cardamom, so there seemed to be no need for them to become puppets anymore. I could just go back and dig them out of Chi You's body later.

Then Chen Luo looked at Klein.

Klein...

Time of death: The Tenth Herrscher incident.

Cause of death: Chosen to become Thousand-Man Herrscher, successfully killed Mobius, and was later devoured by Mobius needed Honkai energy to revive.

Record: Killed Mobius.

"Senior Sister Klein, come here for a second." Chen Luo called out to Klein, who was trying to stop Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu from slacking off.

"Hmm?" After hearing Chen Luo's call, Klein abandoned her supervision of Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu and walked towards Chen Luo.

"Is there something you need?"

"Take this." Chen Luo handed Klein a sparkling gem with four points, as dazzling as a star in the sky.

"What is this?" After taking the "Primogem" from Chen Luo's hand, the Primogem suddenly disappeared into Klein's hand, as if it had merged into the other's body.

This startled Klein, and for a moment she even thought it was an illusion.

"Don't worry, it's nothing bad. It's more like a lifesaver. In this Honkai world, accidents can happen at any time. Having this is like having a talisman. Of course, the price is a bit high. I hope you won't need it if you can," Chen Luo said.

What Chen Luo just gave Klein was not a real Primogem, but Domination Mark in the shape of Primogem. The so-called Domination Mark is another extension of Chen Luo's Domination Authority.

The shape of the Domination Mark can be changed at will, and it can even be Domination Mark silently into other people's bodies without leaving any trace.

Chen Luo's Domination Ability can control a person's body, but it requires Chen Luo to see the other person or be at a certain distance from them. However, if this Domination Mark is implanted, he can control them from a distance without seeing them.

Of course, the Domination Mark given to Klein does not have this effect. Instead, it is a mark that specializes in the "doll" attribute and is used to turn the other party into a doll in the event that Klein dies.

This is another way to use the Domination Mark.

Of course, you can also refer to them separately.

One is called the Domination Mark, and the other is called the Puppet Mark.

Although Chen Luo didn't want to turn Klein into his puppet if he could, it's always good to be safe than sorry.

Although Chen Luo originally intended to give the Heavenly Scented Cardamom Scent to Klein, but...

"Cang Xuan and Danzhu need two Heavenly Scented Cardamom to break the seal, my parents each need two, and I wanted to give the remaining two to Xiaoshi, but it seems I don't have enough left..." Chen Luo sighed.

Therefore, marking the Klein Puppet Mark was a last resort.

If I ever need it, I can be thankful.

It's better if you don't need it.

"Klein, are you interested in becoming Flame-Chaser? Hmm... never mind, it's too dangerous." Chen Luo stopped himself halfway through his question.

Chen Luo got so caught up in making up lies that he almost believed he could help someone survive a failed surgery without any side effects.

The highest level of lying is deceiving even yourself. Chen Luo has truly reached his limit.

"..." Klein, somewhat confused.

"Chen Luo, your surgery schedule for the next few days has been finalized." Mobius emerged from the lounge at some point, walked over to Chen Luo, and placed a schedule on the table next to him.

"So fast?" Chen Luo was surprised.

"In a life-or-death situation like this, everyone will act quickly. You'll be performing three surgeries these next few days: one by a regular volunteer, one by those recommended by the higher-ups, and one by May's secret forces," Mobius said, tapping the form.

Insisting on giving ordinary volunteers a chance was Chen Luo's last line of defense.

Chen Luo could allow another spot to be given to those high-ranking officials, but he would never allow them to monopolize it.

Although Chen Luo cannot guarantee that they will definitely become Flame-Chaser, Chen Luo can at least save their lives.

Just like the unlucky guy who failed the fusion surgery and was the first one Chen Luo turned into a puppet, he still doesn't know he's a puppet, and Chen Luo hasn't had any influence on him.

Chen Luo didn't expect the other party to make any contribution, so he just let it run its course.

"Let me see... Great, I don't recognize any of them." Chen Luo gave up decisively when he saw the long list of unfamiliar names.

I don't know any of them.

Or rather, it would be strange if Chen Luo could even know him.

After all, Chen Luo had only been at the Fire Moth for three days, and the only people he had met were the gatekeeper, the lady who handled the accommodations, Elysia, Hua, and the people in the laboratory.

However, if Chen Luo's guess is correct, these people should all be cannon fodder.

After all, it's normal that even though Cannon Fodder No. 1 set an example, the other high-ranking members of the Fire Moth still harbored some probing intentions.

Oh, that volunteer probably wasn't one; that volunteer was just taking a chance.

"Beep beep beep!" Just as Chen Luo was staring blankly at the form, Mobius's communicator suddenly rang.

Chen Luo could clearly see that Mobius glanced at the communicator and was surprised when he saw the other party's name.

After Mobius answered the communicator, he began to talk to the other end. However, it was more of a conversation than a conversation; Mobius simply nodded to express his agreement.

Mobius hung up the phone very quickly; the entire conversation lasted no more than half a minute.

"Chen Luo, give me the form." Mobius held out his hand to Chen Luo.

"Oh, here you go. By the way, give me your communicator, I'll modify it for you. And yours, Klein, otherwise it might be troublesome for you to contact me." Chen Luo handed the form in his hand to Mobius and then extended his hand to the two of them.

Klein paused for a moment, then together with Mobius, handed the communicator to Chen Luo.

After gently tapping the two communicators, Chen Luo granted the other party the ability to Puppet Transformation and connected them to the Collective Network.

At the same time, Chen Luo also caught a glimpse of the person Mobius had just been communicating with.

Blanca? Who's that again? The name sounds familiar.

After returning the two communicators to the two men, Mobius handed the form to Chen Luo.

"Here you are, the revised form."

"After the modification?" Chen Luo had only caught a glimpse of Mobius drawing two lines there out of the corner of his eye.

After taking the form and glancing at it, Chen Luo noticed that there were no problems with the first few rows. However, during one day's schedule, one more surgical candidate was suddenly added to the original three.

This fourth candidate seemed out of place in the entire table.

"Hen?" Chen Luo couldn't help but pronounce the name.

"Hmm? Hen? Could it be that it was Senior Blanca who called you just now, the Doctor?" Klein immediately thought.

"Hmm." Mobius nodded.

"But I only perform three surgeries a day..."

"Then let's add one more."

"Oh." Chen Luo nodded honestly.

Now that Mobius has spoken, what can Chen Luo do?

Fifty Primogem are better than nothing.

Chapter 427 The New Father-in-Law?

Scar, Blanca's husband.

Blanca, on the other hand, was Mobius's former assistant who, due to family reasons, chose to be transferred to another position for a certain "man".

Although normally the relationship between an ex and his ex-wife is not very good, this ex recommended Klein to Mobius before leaving.

Therefore, Mobius and the other party have a good relationship.

Klein is truly phenomenal.

While some may be unfamiliar with Hen and Blanca, their daughter Griseo should be familiar to most.

That's right, this is my new father-in-law...

Hmm, this is a new Flame-Chaser.

Hen was also one of the second batch of Flame-Chaser from the Previous Era. So even without Chen Luo, the other party could have survived, but it's normal for a wife to want to increase her husband's success rate.

Since the person who possesses this technology—which prevents the other party from dying after a failed fusion surgery—is from the Mei Biu Si Laboratory, Blanca is not going to hold back.

As a result, Mobius didn't bother to remove someone from the already prepared schedule and simply added an extra surgery for Chen Luo.

Chen Luo, on the other hand, received 50 Primogem.

Whether it's worth it or not is another matter.

Since I have nothing better to do anyway, I might as well do one more case.

And thinking about it carefully, doesn't this mean that all the important people who need to undergo Hyper-Evolution Surgery will come looking for me?

For example, Aponia, Cosmo, and that Esther.

Would you say I've made history?

Cannon Fodder No. 1: [Are you there, sir?]

Not here.

Cannon Fodder No. 1: [It's like this, Dr. Mei... Dr. Mei's application for a bodyguard for you has been submitted. I'd like to ask what your requirements are for the bodyguard? Or perhaps you'd like to specify someone as your bodyguard? If you need, I can send... uh, Killer No. 1 to be your bodyguard.]

"No need, I'm not interested in guys. Instead of thinking about how to find me a bodyguard, you should be thinking about how to get me some freebies."

Cannon Fodder No. 1: [So, do you have any requests? After all, it's impossible to prevent the use of bodyguards now. If possible, I suggest you choose one of your own people as a bodyguard, so that your actions won't be hindered.]

Ah, speaking of bodyguards, could I have Elysia as my bodyguard?

Chen Luo suddenly thought of something.

Chen Luo still had to put on Elysia's sack, something Chen Luo always kept in mind and never dared to forget.

[Forget it, that doesn't seem very likely. After all, that's Elysia. Making her my bodyguard seems a bit much. How about I ask Hua to be my bodyguard?]

Cannon Fodder No. 1: [Actually, sir, it's not impossible for you to have Elysia as your bodyguard.]

[Sigh, is this really okay? But isn't she one of the strongest warriors in the Fire Moth right now?]

If I had to describe him in one word, Kevin would be like Durandal from Schicksal, Elysia would be like an enhanced version of Theresa.

Currently, the two strongest members of the entire Fire Moth should be Kevin and Elysia.

Cannon Fodder No. 1: [That's right, but Elysia is "just" a warrior. Although she will later become one of the two leaders of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers, the current Honkai environment isn't as dire as it will be later, and social order hasn't collapsed yet. If you want Elysia to be your bodyguard for a few days, it's quite feasible and wouldn't arouse suspicion. However, if you want her to be your long-term bodyguard, the value you've shown so far seems somewhat insufficient.]

Cannon Fodder No. 1: [Therefore, I suggest that if needed, Elysia can take over for a few days after Sakura finishes her guard duties. I will then use the excuse of sending Sakura on a mission to transfer her away.]

Cannon Fodder No. 1: [After you achieve your goal, how about transferring Hua to be your long-term bodyguard?]

Cannon Fodder No. 1: [Although a prolonged demobilization of Elysia would affect the Fire Moth's combat strength deployment, it wouldn't be a problem for just a few days. Hua isn't Flame-Chaser now; she's just a survivor from the Fifth Squad. Since she's the only one left in the Fifth Squad, it's perfectly normal to use work reassignment as an excuse to have her perform guard duties.]

Is this how you all view the future Flame-Chasers?

Chen Luo didn't quite understand, but Chen Luo was still quite shocked.

However, none of the current Flame-Chaser have Man-made Collapse Form. The Hyper-Evolution Surgery turns them into Flame-Chaser, but to have a Man-made Collapse Form, they still need to undergo surgery.

Because the Man-made Collapse pattern was originally developed after studying the Cosmo.

The timing will be quite late.

Without Man-made Collapse Form, the Flame-Chaser's combat power would be slightly lacking.

Chen Luo wasn't really interested in having Elysia as his bodyguard; Aili was just too gay. Chen Luo preferred Hua.

Because Hua is really interesting.

"Let's go, Luo. It's time for lunch. By the way, Luo, there's something else I wanted to ask you," Cang Xuan suddenly asked.

"Ask me any questions you may have."

"Why do the Doctor and Klein sometimes call you Chen Luo?" Cang Xuan asked curiously.

Because Chen Luo's second fake identity is also named Luo, not Chen Luo.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

Just like when you go back to the Three Kingdoms period, it's best to change a three-character name to a two-character name, because throughout the history of the Three Kingdoms, none of the famous nobles had three-character names, unless they had compound surnames.
