The Most Dangerous Profession: Archaeologist

"Alo, don't you know you've been standing there in a daze for a long time?" Danzhu said.

"So... what did you all hear and see?" Chen Luo asked somewhat nervously.

"I want to transform this imperfect world into the one I envision!" Danzhu said earnestly.

"Hahahaha, I can't take it anymore, I never expected my junior brother to have such a chuunibyou side." But after saying this seriously, Danzhu instantly broke down and burst into laughter.

"..." Chen Luo immediately covered his forehead.

Damn it, my attention was completely focused on the Imaginary Stigmata, and I was thinking about quite a lot of things, so I temporarily ignored everything around me.

The key point is that Cang Xuan, Danzhu, and Klein had no ill intentions towards Chen Luo, and they were also a little far away from Chen Luo, so Chen Luo's instincts did not detect any danger.

"Junior brother, I think your ideal is really great—to turn this imperfect world into the way you expect it to be. We believe you can definitely do it." Cang Xuan was different from Dan Zhu; at least Cang Xuan was encouraging Chen Luo in a more serious manner.

"Hahahaha..." Danzhu laughed as she bent over and held Cang Xuan's shoulder.

"Ideals are lofty, but reality is harsh. Even so, without people like you, junior brother, to change the world, it will remain unchanged..."

"Hahahaha..." Danzhu continued to laugh.

"... The world may not change because of one person, but it will change because of a group of people like you, junior brother. Although we may not be able to do that, and we may fail under the increasingly powerful Honkai, as long as we have tried our best, we will have no regrets."

"Besides, the outcome is still uncertain, and it's not certain who will win or lose."

"Hahahaha..." Danzhu was still laughing.

"... Danzhu! You've been laughing the whole time, you haven't stopped at all!" Chen Luo said to Danzhu, somewhat embarrassed and angry.

Although Cang Xuan was trying to suppress his laughter and encourage Chen Luo to make Chen Luo feel less awkward, Danzhu kept laughing.

Danzhu's laughter kept Chen Luo from concentrating on listening to Cang Xuan speak.

"Hahaha... I'm sorry, but it really... really was interesting." Danzhu said with a little bit of embarrassment.

It was really just a little bit of embarrassment.

"Laugh, laugh, there will come a time when you can't laugh anymore." A glint of light flashed in Chen Luo's eyes.

It might not be appropriate for me to make a move on you now, but I can make a move on you in the future.

You're definitely in for a world of hurt tonight.

No, I can't wait until tonight! I'll be home in a bit, and you'll regret it.

I'm so angry!

"Danzhu, stop laughing." Cang Xuan, who always had a strong will to survive, shook Danzhu.

Cang Xuan still wanted to eat Chen Luo's breakfast.

Cang Xuan then turned his head and looked at Klein, who was drowsy beside him.

"Klein, what are you going to say?"

"Huh? Oh, good luck, I support you," Klein mumbled, still half asleep.

"..."

"What happened?" When Mobius walked into the laboratory, he saw Danju, who was still smiling.

And Chen Luo, standing expressionless beside him.

"The Doctor, the Doctor, just now Alo stood there for a while and then suddenly said something incredibly melodramatic. Something about 'I want to transform this imperfect world into the way I want it to be,' and it sounded really impressive!"

Although Danzhu's words sounded like he was praising Chen Luo would only be slightly happier if Danzhu could suppress his laughter even a little.

"Heh..." Mobius chuckled softly, looking at Chen Luo in surprise.

Mobius hadn't yet discovered this sentimental side of Chen Luo. Wasn't this guy always only interested in Primogem?

Feeling the look in Mobius's eyes, Chen Luo immediately covered his face.

Destroy it, I'm tired. This world is beyond saving...

Chen Luo suddenly had a thought, "It doesn't seem like there's any harm in the world being destroyed like this."

At least everyone who knows about this dark part of their history should disappear.

Thinking this, Chen Luo threw the book he had just acquired back into the corner.

"Achoo, achoo, achoo!" Just as Chen Luo was thinking this, he suddenly heard three sneezes in a row.

Turning his head, he saw Danzhu standing there, looking completely bewildered. It was obvious that he had been stunned by the sneeze.

I was laughing when I sneezed three times, and my head went numb.

"See? See? You've been punished by heaven!" Chen Luo said, pointing at Danzhu who seemed to have a sore nose.

Seeing that the other party had suffered divine retribution, Chen Luo was satisfied and took the book back.

"Hmph! I will transform this imperfect world into the one I desire!" Danzhu sneered.

"Tsk. This world is not beautiful at all!" Chen Luo said unhappily.

"Kid, the world isn't a beautiful place to begin with," Danzhu said smugly.

"... This world isn't actually that great! You're all losers, and so are humans!" Chen Luo squinted and uttered his own lines.

"Junior brother, why are you getting all dramatic again? Life may not be perfect, but we still have to live it, right? Where did you copy these lines from? What anime? I've never seen them before. The lines are a bit too dramatic," Danzhu said with a sigh.

"No, this isn't a line from an anime, it's a line that's uniquely mine."

These are lines exclusively for... the Thousand-Man Herrscher.

Chen Luo inherited the Herrscher of Domination from the Second Civilization Era, and the original Herrscher of Domination was someone who harbored extreme resentment towards the world.

"I'm going to turn evil!"

"Going to the dark side is great! Junior brother, let me tell you, going to the dark side makes you 10 times stronger, while going to the white side makes you 3 times weaker. If you ever become a villain, never go to the white side, because you'll definitely become weaker if you do," said Danzhu, an anime enthusiast.

"Yes, I will keep Danzhu's words in mind." Chen Luo nodded slightly.

You just wait, I'm going to turn evil tonight.

They'll lock you in Little Black Room and make you copy it 4000 times as punishment before letting you out.

Let me show you what world-class despair is like.

"Mobius? Are you there?" Just as the Mei Biu Si Laboratory was filled with laughter (mainly Danzhu was laughing, and it never stopped), a knock came at the door.

"Elysia and Vill-V, how did you two get here?"

"Hi, dear Mobius, did you miss me?" Elysia jumped out and greeted him.

"No, but if that's all you're going to say, then you can leave," Mobius said coldly.

"Don't be so cold. I just saw you smiling. Smiling is good for your health, and pretty girls become even prettier when they smile more."

"Vill-V, are you here to take the Herrscher Core?" Mobius ignored Elysia's words and turned his gaze to another person.

"Yes, that's right." A girl wearing a large hat with gears on it said next to Elysia.

"Vill-V, an engineer," Mobius introduced to Chen Luo casually.

"They are Great Engineer and Great Mechanic," Vill-V emphasized.

Chapter 469 The Most Dangerous Profession: Archaeologist

"I want to transform this imperfect world into the way I envision it... I really like that sentence." Elysia commented as she looked at Chen Luo.

Elysia simply bumped into Vill-V on the way and stopped by. After arriving at the laboratory, Doctor Mobius accompanied Vill-V to retrieve the Herrscher Core of Flame, while Elysia chatted with Cang Xuan Danzhu.

Cang Xuan Dan Zhu is naturally considered a beautiful girl, so she is naturally within Elysia's hunting range. Or rather, in the entire Fire Moth, no one dislikes Elysia.

Therefore, Mobius and Elysia are very familiar with each other, and Cang Xuan and Danzhu are also not unfamiliar with Elysia, so they naturally exposed Chen Luo's dark history.

Chen Luo also looked at Elysia's evaluation of him with a dark face.

But... what do I care if you like this sentence or not?

"Thank you for the compliment." However, Chen Luo didn't want to say anything too offensive to Elysia, given Elysia undeniable popularity among the Fire Moth.

Moreover, Chen Luo also planned to take this opportunity to improve his relationship with Elysia, so that he wouldn't get beaten up when he tried to put her in a sack.

Whether Chen Luo can defeat Elysia is another matter, since violence is not encouraged, but Chen Luo is confident that Elysia will not be able to hit him at all.

The problem is that Chen Luo's current persona is that of a rising star in the scientific community who is powerless and cannot even kill a chicken, so fighting is not allowed.

"Hmm, I always feel a sense of familiarity with you, but I can't quite put my finger on why. From the very first time we met, I knew you were destined for great things," Elysia said, stroking her chin.

In fact, when Elysia first saw Chen Luo, she felt that Chen Luo was a little strange, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

"Why are you so sure?" Chen Luo asked.

"That's the intuition of a beautiful girl." Elysia nodded seriously.

"Of course, it's also possible that you retained such a pure and kind soul after surviving under the Sixth Herrscher?"

Elysia had always felt that Chen Luo gave her a faint Herrscher aura, which only Elysia could sense. But thinking about it carefully, he seemed to be a survivor of the Sixth Herrscher's companion to the Great Honkai, and thus gained some slightly special but not completely special abilities. So it seemed quite normal for him to have a little bit of Herrscher aura.

However, in reality, those auras belong to the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Chen Luo doesn't have any Herrscher aura. Although Chen Luo Herrscher, as long as he turns off his Herrscher's Body, this Semi-Conceptual Physique, there won't be any aura leaking out. But this doesn't apply to Herrscher of Knowledge.

Of course, this was only the reason why Elysia could sense the faint Herrscher aura emanating from Chen Luo. As for why the other party found Chen Luo pleasing to the eye...

Who knows? There could be many reasons.

"You're wrong about that. I'm not a good person." Chen Luo shook his head.

Chen Luo simply enjoys collecting Primogem. If we're talking about how kind he is, he's probably more humane than young people who have been through the harsh realities of society, but he can't be considered a truly pure and kind person.

"Hmm? Really? I don't think so. Sometimes humility is a good quality, but being too humble can make you seem dishonest." Elysia shook her head.

Elysia saw a certain longing in Chen Luo, and something that even she couldn't understand, shining brightly in the darkness.

You can't look at this stuff too much, or it'll blind you.

"..." Judging from Elysia's tone, Chen Luo had reason to suspect that what she saw was not his own trait, but rather the trait of his talent.

Chen Luo didn't think she had any outstanding qualities; she had just been a miserable person for two years.

However, as a talent that embodies wishes, Chen Luo felt that this thing was indeed very dazzling.

The Primogem inside are so dazzling they can blind you.

"Oh, by the way, Kevin seems to be mentioning you a lot lately. He even praised you a few times, which is quite rare. Praising people is common for other people, but if it's Kevin, it means you really have qualities that deserve recognition."

"You may have misunderstood. The other person may just be in a good mood."

Chen Luo can directly refute Elysia's point on this.

Kevin is just happy because he might be able to hug his girlfriend; he'll be fine if we ignore him for a few days.

"Hmm, why do you always seem to be so self-critical, Little Luoluo?" Elysia asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Please don't call me Little Luoluo, okay? Thank you."

"And I'm not denying myself, I'm just being self-aware. If I could, I'd rather stay home and laze around, occasionally reading ancient books, and become an archaeologist someday, traveling the world. Then I'd say, 'The world is so big, I want to see it,' and embark on a spontaneous trip. But unfortunately, some sudden changes altered the trajectory of my life." Chen Luo sighed.

To be honest, Chen Luo has always been very interested in becoming an archaeologist, so Chen Luo has devoted a lot of energy to history.

But now it seems I may be drifting further and further away from being an archaeologist.

He went directly from being an archaeologist to a Traveler.

However, who knows, maybe in the future I'll be able to get a job as an archaeologist, and the condition for improving my professional skill level is to do archaeology.

Moreover, from Chen Luo's current perspective, archaeology no longer presents any challenges. Chen Luo wants to take on the challenge of bringing ancient people to the present day and asking them questions one by one.

However, archaeology is not a method of realizing value, but a belief.

Uncover the truth of history and explore the secrets of the ancient times.

Hmm... thinking about it this way, I suddenly realize that archaeologists seem to be in a bit of danger.

After all, archaeology wasn't too much of a problem before the Spiritual Energy Revival, but with the recent revival of spiritual energy, will my parents encounter zombies when they go into tombs?

No, I'll have to ask them later if they have a fixed archaeological site, and then send the Insanely Modified Heavenly Scented Cardamom over there as soon as possible.

"A turning point in fate?"

Chen Luo's so-called turning point in fate refers to the moment his Talent Awakening, but in the eyes of Elysia and even Cang Xuan Danzhu, the turning point in fate he was referring to was the 6th Great Honkai, which was the terrifying crisis in which all of his family and friends left him.
