Fu Hua can't even remember who Lian Cang Xuan and Danzhu are, so why do you think she can remember who you are?

The Book of Cang Xuan crashed during the Tang Dynasty, which is at least 1,000 years ago.

How many times has Fu Hua's brain been damaged during these 1000 years? How many times has she suffered amnesia? It's really hard to say.

"But... but if she's lost her memory, why would she be wearing this outfit?" Book of Cang Xuan asked, pointing disbelievingly at the Azure Empyrean outfit Fu Hua was wearing.

"Xiao Shi gave it to her," Chen Luo said matter-of-factly.

"... Chen Luo, I don't believe you can't restore her memories. You're both Herrscher of Knowledge, can't you even do this? Hurry up and restore her memories!"

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"Okay, okay, it's recovering." Chen Luo said, glancing at the back of Fu Hua's collar.

There, a portable Level 2 medical Teleport Anchor is shining brightly, fulfilling its purpose.

Chapter 434 The Seventh Herrscher's Body Research

"Beep, slacking off card." After swiping his card, Chen Luo turned to look at Dan Zhu, who was doing voice acting next to him.

"What are you doing?" Chen Luo asked.

"I'm just envious. After all, you don't seem to have to work on Saturdays and Sundays, right?" Danzhu said enviously.

"Ah, if that's the case, does that mean I don't even need to clock in?" Chen Luo suddenly remembered this when Danzhu brought it up.

"It seems so." Danzhu nodded.

"But speaking of which, do you guys work on Saturdays too?" Chen Luo asked.

"Well, sometimes if the work progress for the week doesn't meet the target, or if there's a sudden emergency test, then we need to work overtime. And the work of the Fire Moth is different from others. The Honkai doesn't just happen on weekdays, so the situation of working all month without a break, although it sounds terrifying, is not uncommon."

"Of course, normally it wouldn't be this bad. It's just that at the Yue Yue, after the Seventh Herrscher was killed by Kevin, things got a little busier, and I had less time to slack off." Danzhu sighed.

Resisting the Honkai is no easy task, and the distinction between rest and workdays is quite gruesome. Originally, Danzhu and Cang Xuan's work was to have weekends off, but there were occasional instances where they were requisitioned for work on weekends. However, the good news was that the overtime pay was generous.

"Speaking of which Herrscher Core of the Seventh Herrscher will be lent to our lab for research this afternoon. Doctor Mobius applied for it and it took him a long time to get it. Are you interested in taking a look?" Danzhu said to Chen Luo.

"The core of the Seventh Herrscher... Sorry, I'm going to the amusement park today. I really envy you being able to research the Herrscher Core of the Seventh Herrscher," Chen Luo said with emotion.

After saying that, he looked at his backpack, which was filled with Herrscher Core of Flame Cores.

Chen Luo had actually considered equipping each of his dolls with a Herrscher Core, so he had accumulated quite a few Herrscher Core. Since it would only last for a month at most, accumulating dozens of them wouldn't be too expensive.

So Chen Luo actually had quite a few Herrscher Core of Flame cores in his backpack.

However, the Herrscher Core of the Previous Era and the Herrscher Core of the current civilization seem to be quite different, according to Otto.

"Are you showing off? You bastard, you're definitely showing off!" Danzhu said, on the verge of tears.

If given a choice, Danzhu would rather go to an amusement park than study that damned core of the Seventh Herrscher.

Danzhu doesn't want to be Herrscher, so why is he researching the Herrscher Core?

"Oh, right, now that the Seventh Herrscher is dead and the Herrscher Core has been extracted, what about the Seventh Herrscher?"

"Of course the Seventh Herrscher is dead," Danzhu said matter-of-factly.

"... I'm asking about the corpse of the Seventh Herrscher."

"According to rumors, the body seems to be being studied, but it's unclear which lab it's in. If you're interested, you can ask Doctor Mobius; she should know," Cang Xuan added while eating the breakfast Chen Luo had brought.

"The Herrscher's corpse... it certainly sounds like it's worth studying," Chen Luo said, stroking his chin.

Perhaps I have one more thing to do today.

The Seventh Herrscher's corpse, if it's been studied all this time, sounds pretty tragic.

After bidding farewell to Cang Xuan Danzhu, Chen Luo headed towards Mobius's lounge.

"Snake Snake, where is the Seventh Herrscher's body now?" Chen Luo asked.

"What do you want to do?" Mobius asked, looking at the book.

"Well, I feel like that body is destined for me..." Chen Luo said shyly.

"That body is being studied right now; who knows, they might discover something useful..."

"It's alright. I have everything that can be researched here." Chen Luo said as he materialized a large stack of reports using his Void Archive ability.

"My Void Archive contains all the knowledge of the Previous Era, so naturally it also includes research results obtained from studying the body of the Seventh Herrscher. I'm using this to exchange for it," Chen Luo said, patting the large stack of paper reports.

Chen Luo wasn't an unreasonable person. As a civilization slowly being Honkai by Honkai, wasn't it normal to study the bodies and Herrscher Core dead Herrscher in hopes of gaining something?

"But have you ever considered how you obtained the data you have now if you were to steal that body?" Mobius asked a rather fatal question.

"Uh..." Chen Luo was taken aback when he heard the question.

Holy crap, that makes sense.

"Then I'll use the Void Archive to make a copy and steal the original, is that alright?" Chen Luo said after thinking for a moment.

"Whatever makes you happy." Mobius didn't understand why Chen Luo would do something so superfluous. What was the difference between a copy and the original?

Besides, what's so special about stealing the body of a Herrscher?

The body is merely a shackle on the mind.

"Snake Snake, it seems like you've gotten a little smaller lately?"

"Yes, I recently died once, so my physical age has decreased a bit."

"What?"

"Don't worry, it's just suicide."

"Being older means you can do whatever you want," Chen Luo sighed.

Unlike Chen Luo, who is only 17 years old and wouldn't dare to die casually.

After all, dying once means regressing to a certain period of one's physical age.

"Get out." Mobius said coldly to Chen Luo.

"I'm going to the amusement park now, goodbye!" Chen Luo said playfully as he happily ran out of the lab.

Entering Fire Moth requires very strict screening, but fortunately Chen Luo's identity is no longer a problem, so he passed the screening easily.

"Is this your car?" Chen Luo asked Ying curiously from the passenger seat.

"Yes." Sakura nodded, her long ears twitching slightly.

After leaving the lab, Chen Luo notified Ying via communicator.

Although Sakura's leave request was rejected, and she can't leave Chen Luo 'Chen Luo side freely because of him, there's nothing that can be done if Chen Luo also goes to the amusement park.

"Are you just going to go out like this?" Chen Luo asked Empress.

Although I said yesterday that I was going to go to the Elysian Realm to touch Sakura's ears, I didn't actually do it in the end.

The key issue is that there's no time, so Chen Luo is really curious about Ying's ears.

"It has a hat," Sakura said.

In any case, the existence of Flame-Chaser has not been fully exposed yet, and since the purpose of going to the amusement park is to have fun, it is best not to reveal the identity of Flame-Chaser if possible.

Of the four Flame-Chaser in the first wave, Sakura's physical characteristics were the most obvious.

Kevin looks just like a normal person, except that his body temperature is "a little" low.

Mobius was similar, except his eyes had become more snake-like in shape.

Needless to say, Elysia is getting more and more beautiful; who can resist that?

During the Third Honkai Outbreak, the Honkai came into the public eye. After all, the entire city was destroyed, and such a terrifying disaster could not be ignored.

Moreover, during the Seventh Honkai Outbreak, the entire Australia was engulfed in flames. With their visibility increasing, the Fire Moth had long since given up on hiding.

Furthermore, Honkai Sickness is something that cannot be hidden at all; its spread is very wide.

"Hello, my name is Luo." Chen Luo extended his right hand to the girl who was curiously looking at him.

"Hello, my name is Ling." Ling nervously extended her hand and shook hands with Chen Luo.

When Sakura picked up Ling, she didn't drive to her own house, but instead had Ling go to a bus stop ahead of her.

This is enough to show that Ying doesn't seem to want Chen Luo to know where her house is.

"Are you my sister's colleague?"

Although Ling didn't understand why an older brother had suddenly come to accompany her and her sister to the amusement park, her sister told her that it was because of him that she was able to take the day off today.

People who have to work on Saturdays and Sundays are probably called "corporate slaves" in the outside world. Is my sister considered a corporate slave too?

However, this older brother looked quite kind, so Ling didn't mind.

Looking at Chen Luo sitting in the passenger seat, Ling suddenly wondered if his relationship with her sister might be something special.

It's perfectly normal for anyone to have this thought when an extra person suddenly appears on what was supposed to be a family outing to the amusement park.

"Yes." Chen Luo nodded.

"But you look only about 18 years old, right? What kind of job can you do?" Ling asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Well, I just do odd jobs. After all, a good job isn't easy to find. To put it nicely, I'm an assistant; to put it bluntly, I'm a handyman."

"But I was lucky enough to meet a rich woman who was willing to support me."

"Huh?! This is the adult world?" Ling was utterly surprised.

"Just kidding, but I got this job because of a recommendation from a beautiful female the Doctor."

This was Chen Luo and Ling's first meeting.

A handsome young man being kept by a rich woman?

"Here..." Chen Luo was stunned for a moment after arriving at the amusement park.

Why does the layout here look so similar to that of the Childhood Fun Park? It's just that it lacks those more fairytale-like decorations.

Is it because Ling used the Childhood Fun Park for tens of thousands of years to transform it into her own shape, or are all Childhood Fun Park parks in the world more or less the same?

"But if you put it that way, this seems to come in handy." Chen Luo said, while taking out a Childhood Fun Park tour guide that Ling had given him yesterday.

It was made by Ling herself.

This made Chen Luo wonder if the other person had been paying attention in class.

"Here's a tourist guide for you two. Have fun, I'll just follow behind you." After slightly altering the handwriting in the tourist guide that Ling had made, Chen Luo handed it to Ying and Ling.

"Thank you for your trouble," Sakura said with a slight apology.

Originally, he was supposed to be Chen Luo's bodyguard, but due to various reasons and coincidences, he ended up being Chen Luo's "follower" behind him.

"It doesn't matter anyway, I was planning to visit the amusement park anyway." Chen Luo waved his hand.

"Stay close to me," Ying told Chen Luo as her last words.

"Understood." Chen Luo nodded.

As Sakura turned around and took Ling's hand, following the guidebook to the amusement park attractions, Chen Luo took out a card and silently recited "use."

The next second after using it, Chen Luo seemed to receive some kind of inspiration, and then threw the card away violently.

Just two seconds later, the card that was moving further and further away suddenly burst into a burst of light that shot into the sky, like fireworks exploding in broad daylight. Then it scattered a faint golden light that appeared very faint in the daytime, spreading towards the sky at an extremely fast speed.

The commotion was a little loud, and even Sakura and Ling, who were walking in front of Chen Luo, couldn't help but turn around and take a look.

"Ah, is this the amusement park's special attraction for today?" Suddenly, the people next to Chen Luo started discussing the fireworks.

"Sigh, was it a special program? It's a shame I didn't get to see it." Ling sighed, a little disappointed.

"Alright, alright, let's go ride the carousel," Sakura said, wearing a hat and patting Ling's head.

"No, I want to ride the roller coaster."

"... Okay, but I'm a little afraid of heights, so I won't go." Sakura forced a smile, touching the hat on her head.

I think you're not allowed to wear hats on roller coasters?
