Academy City Level 6-The Dorm Supervisor!
Nice! The rewards have indeed increased.
This shows that the method is effective, at least for a certain group of people.
Although the increase is small, it's still progress.
Although it's not always worth the effort for a small increase in the price of Primogem, there's an even more important point: when Chen Luo sees the other party getting angry and frustrated, he finds it somewhat amusing.
They evaded taxes. They evaded taxes.
After all, seeing someone suffer misfortune is always one of the most enjoyable things to see.
However, Chen Luo didn't feel comfortable laughing when he saw Kato Megumi having a bad time.
"Here you go." Chen Luo, seeing Kato Megumi's expectant gaze, casually handed Kato Megumi an LV4 Superpower Crystal.
"Just use it, just like you used the crystal before."
"That's it?" Kato Megumi asked doubtfully.
"That's settled." Chen Luo nodded.
"It's that simple?"
"It's that simple. Did you expect me to give you a power transfer and then some kind of golden lotus appearance or auspicious omen?" Chen Luo complained.
"Girl, don't read too many novels or watch too many anime."
"..."
The LV4 Superpower Crystal cost Chen Luo 100 Honkai Crystal, which directly caused Chen Luo to go bankrupt... well, not bankrupt. Now, since he got Chi You, Chen Luo's life has become more and more comfortable.
Chi You is the eternal god.
Chi You is like an eternal power bank.
Moreover, after returning to the Puppet Collection Vault, you can recover health and energy by a percentage, so you don't have to worry about running out of power.
Chi You, he really is... I'm crying my eyes out.
In fact, from a purely rational perspective, Chen Luo's allocation of the ability crystals to Kato Megumi was undoubtedly the most wasteful choice.
Because upgrading to level 3 first and then to level 4 requires 20 + 100, a total of 120 Honkai Crystal.
You only need 100 Honkai Crystal to directly upgrade to level 4.
The problem is that if we only talk about the Primogem and disregard cost-effectiveness, Chen Luo could earn a lot more.
"Let me try." Seeing Kato Megumi leave her seat after fulfilling her wish, Yakumo Yukari immediately took her place.
"Hmm? What's your wish this time?" Chen Luo tilted his head, looking at the enthusiastic Yakumo Yukari.
"I want to perfectly repair the Hakurei Great Barrier. I feel that the Hakurei Great Barrier has been under a bit too much pressure lately. Although Ran is in charge of maintenance, it would be better to make an even stronger protective shell just in case," Yakumo Yukari said.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
"But you know I can't do it right now," Chen Luo said, somewhat speechless.
"But I believe in your potential. According to Venti, it only took you a little over a month to grow from an ordinary person to what you are now. I don't even want to imagine what you will become if you are given another year," Yakumo Yukari said.
"Then... please." Chen Luo nodded, thinking that what Yakumo Yukari said made sense.
"Are you two seriously ill, or did you come to my bar just to smash keyboards?" Chen Luo said in a deep voice, looking at Yakumo Yukari and Kaguya Houraisan, who were sitting upright on the stools in front of Chen Luo like elementary school students.
"You two smashed five of my keyboards. You're really bad at games but love to play." Chen Luo said to the two of them, annoyed.
"The most crucial point is that you two are from Gensokyo, yet you can't even pass this simplest level. How dare you call yourselves Gensokyo?"
"You have the nerve to call yourself Yokai Sage? You have the nerve to call yourself a princess of the moon palace?"
"... Chen Luo, didn't you say you were going to Gensokyo to gather information? How about tomorrow?" Yakumo Yukari suddenly looked up and asked.
"Uh, sure. Since you invited me to Gensokyo, you don't have to pay for the keyboard, you two weaklings."
"..."
Chen Luo! You just wait! When we get to Gensokyo tomorrow, I'll invite you to play a real-life danmaku game.
If I challenge you to a bullet hell game contest, I'll bet Kaguya Houraisan's life on it!
Yakumo Yukari forced a smile while thinking to herself.
Next to Yakumo Yukari, Kaguya Houraisan, who had only broken two keyboards without realizing it, looked at the new keyboard next to the computer and was eager to try it out.
I, Kaguya Houraisan, have never been inferior to anyone in my life? Yakumo Yukari smashes three, I'll smash three too!
Chapter 478 Academy City Lv6 - Dormitory Supervisor!
Originally, Gensokyo didn't have bullet hell games; to be precise, it should be called Spell Card games.
Spell Card became popular after the Gensokyo Scarlet Devil Mansion Incident, and gradually became the mainstream of battles in Gensokyo after that.
Of course, it happened before, but not many people followed it.
Gensokyo is such a small place, yet it is home to a great number of youkai, gods, and freaks.
The safety of Gensokyo itself is in grave danger.
Gensokyo is not peaceful; all sorts of battles are commonplace. Most importantly, these powerful demons completely disregard the damage they cause to Gensokyo when they fight.
The Hakurei Shrine Maiden of all dynasties have long suffered from this phenomenon.
It wasn't until Reimu Hakurei proposed the ingenious idea of Spell Card and attempted to make them the mainstream fighting method in Gensokyo that things started to go smoothly. It wasn't until the Scarlet Devil Incident that spell cards were fully popularized.
"So, we people in Gensokyo aren't very familiar with this stuff. We rarely used Spell Card in battle before." Kaguya Houraisan tried to shed her "noob" label.
"Alright, alright, stop making excuses. Being bad at esports is the Original Sin." Chen Luo waved his hand.
"Then if you're so capable, go ahead and unseal my abilities in this bar. I'll get past you in no time," Kaguya Houraisan roared.
"Sorry, no. This thing is for you to overcome obstacles to achieve your wishes, not for you to cheat. If you're bad, you're bad, don't make excuses for yourself."
Kaguya Houraisan 'Kaguya Houraisan Time Ability allows her to treat one second as an hour, so if she were to use her ability, passing the test would be a piece of cake.
It's not that Kaguya Houraisan lacked skill, but the EX-level difficulty of Antinomy of Common Flowers is simply inhuman.
It's normal to break one or two keyboards.
"You say I'm bad? If you're so good, why don't you do it yourself?" Kaguya Houraisan couldn't take it anymore.
He grabbed the keyboard from the computer desk and smashed it to pieces with a knee strike.
Ah, that feels good...
I, Kaguya Houraisan, have never been inferior to anyone in my life!
"If I can do it, I'll do it. I'll show you what a true esports god is." Chen Luo said, pulling out another keyboard while giving Kaguya Houraisan a disdainful look.
"Does this guy really think he won't have to pay to fix the keyboard after it's been smashed?"
"Hahaha, you're not even as good as me!" After Chen Luo's game over, Kaguya Houraisan mocked him wildly.
"Laugh, what are you laughing at? It's normal for me to be a little bad at this game for the first time, isn't it?" Chen Luo snorted coldly, appearing self-righteous.
"And you still have the nerve to let people come to you to make a wish after they've passed this test?"
"You can beat this game after a couple of tries. Wait, I'll show you some skills." Chen Luo said as he stood up.
"Hmm?" Kaguya Houraisan was a little confused as she watched Chen Luo stand up and leave his seat.
"What kind of show are you trying to show off? How about smashing the computer?"
"Oh."
Chen Luo sneered and then, without explaining, directly pulled out a doll.
This doll was taken out of a backpack, not from Puppet Collection Vault, because it is a human-shaped homemade puppet.
This puppet was not made of any precious materials; it was simply lifelike enough.
"Uh, is this the Thousand-Man Herrscher?" Upon seeing this puppet, the Herrscher of Knowledge, who had been watching the battle for a long time, couldn't help but show his disgust.
This isn't discrimination against those Herrscher of Knowledge... well, those Herrscher of Knowledge just look down on those Thousand-Man Herrscher, except for Chen Luo.
Everyone was puzzled by Chen Luo's actions. All they knew was that Chen Luo had sat on the ergonomic chair with the Thousand-Man Herrscher doll in his arms and placed its fingers on the keyboard.
"What are you doing? Are you trying to cheat? Are you looking for someone to play for you?" Kaguya Houraisan said hurriedly.
"No, I'm going to control her body to complete the game." As Chen Luo spoke, he pulled out 10 thin threads from the air and with a gentle flick, the ten threads instantly merged into the ten fingers of the Thousand-Man Herrscher.
Chen Luo made a loop from the other end of the thin thread and then put it on his ten fingers.
"Now I'll show you what a real puppeteer is like." Chen Luo smiled wickedly.
As Chen Luo's fingers trembled slightly, the fingers of the Thousand-Man Herrscher also began to tremble. After nimbly flipping his fingers, he clenched his fist and then moved his right Thousand-Man Herrscher from the keyboard to the mouse.
Start!
"No, really? This is possible?" Kaguya Houraisan looked at the situation in disbelief.
Kaguya Houraisan didn't quite understand why she was clumsy when playing on her own, but had such fast hand speed when controlling her own doll.
Even after Chen Luo successfully cleared the game, Kaguya Houraisan didn't understand this.
As for whether Chen Luo cheated... Although Kaguya Houraisan and Yakumo Yukari cannot use force in the bar, they still possess strength and discernment.
"This is the professional quality of a puppeteer." Chen Luo raised his head proudly.
[Controls]
This is the innate ability that Chen Luo gained after becoming a puppeteer, so Chen Luo did not cheat.
This talent allows Chen Luo to unleash abilities beyond his own limits when manipulating certain things.
So just because a puppeteer can't do something doesn't mean that a human puppeteer can't do it.
"I don't believe it, I'm going to try it." Kaguya Houraisan refused to admit her mistake and rushed forward, snatching the ring from Chen Luo's hand that controlled the ten thin threads of the puppet's fingers.
Chen Luo also readily gave the 10 rings to Kaguya Houraisan.
"Hmm... even harder to control." The fingers of the Thousand-Man Herrscher are naturally curved, so only 10 thin threads are needed to control the opponent's fingers.
But when Kaguya actually tried to use these 10 wires to control the fingers of the Thousand-Man Herrscher to type on the keyboard, she discovered that there were problems everywhere.
This includes, but is not limited to, the lack of tactile feedback from typing, which makes it easy to slip and accidentally press the wrong key because your fingers are too spread out.
In short, controlling Thousand-Man Herrscher to play the game is several times more difficult than playing the game yourself.
"Well, now that I've successfully passed the test, shouldn't I also fulfill one of my own wishes?" Chen Luo pondered on the other side.
"Okay, it's decided, I'm going to slack off tonight!" Chen Luo cheered and ran behind the bar to lie down.
"..." Those Herrscher of Knowledge do not understand, but Herrscher of Knowledge greatly shocked.
Can they even fulfill their own wishes?
"The Herrscher of Knowledge has altered your consciousness. Now you can't slack off anymore, and you have to give me the chance to fulfill my wish." After thinking for two seconds, the Herrscher of Knowledge jogged over to Chen Luo's side and said to Chen Luo.
"???" Chen Luo tilted his head.
"Please, please?" the Herrscher of Knowledge pleaded.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
[Making a Wish]: The right to make a wish to Chen Luo once is given to the Herrscher of Knowledge.
Reward: 50 Primogem
Difficulty: One star
"Hmm, whatever makes you happy. So, what wish do you want to make?"
Whether it's Primogem or Primogem, Chen Luo Chen Luo really doesn't care this time. What he really wants to know is what wish the Herrscher of Knowledge wants to make.
[Ding! Mission complete]
"I don't know," the Herrscher of Knowledge said after a moment of contemplation.
"???"
