Their Commission Reward Is Not Right Chapter 50

"Boom!"

Countless blades circled the Emperor Honkai, slicing the towering skyscraper in half.

The Emperor Honkai, over 30 meters tall, stood on the ground, exuding regal presence.

"Boom, boom!" Several explosions sounded. The shells fired by the Heavy Cannon Rabbit were like mere tickles against the Emperor Honkai's body, not even scratching its defenses.

Not to mention the pitifully small shotgun Kiana was holding.

"Can I really defeat this thing?" Chen Luo was highly doubtful.

"Don't worry, a mere Emperor Honkai would be crushed by a single finger if it were my main body. With me here, there are no accidents, but you need to activate the War Domain so Schicksal and Anti-Entropy don't find me," Little Herrscher assured him.

"No problem."

Chen Luo nodded, then waved his right hand. A gust of wind mixed with dirt and dust slammed into the Honkai Beast's face.

The concentrated miniature sandstorm obscured the Emperor Honkai's vision, and as earth magic was cast, countless stone pillars surged from the ground, blocking its path.

Two energy beams crossed, destroying all the stone pillars. Simultaneously, countless ring blades expanded outwards, and one of them flew towards Chen Luo.

Chen Luo picked up the Unsheathed Sword that had fallen when Mei was attacked and used it to block the ring blade.

The Unsheathed Sword had the characteristic of being indestructible, so in a way, it could also be used as an indestructible shield. Because of this, Chen Luo was merely slammed heavily against the wall without his defense being breached.

"Cough, cough, it's quite powerful," Chen Luo coughed a couple of times, marveling.

Now Chen Luo understood the extent of the combat power gap between himself and the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"You guys take Mei and leave first, head to the TV station. I have a way to trap it and myself in the same space," Chen Luo shouted to Kiana and Bronya.

Raiden Mei had taken a solid hit from the shockwave, but thanks to the Vision's wind element shield, she was completely unharmed. She had only fainted from the impact, and even her hairstyle was barely disturbed.

Chen Luo had specifically instructed Little Herrscher to monitor the situation. If anyone was truly going to be injured, then they shouldn't hide.

"What? Trap it in the same space? That won't do! How can you possibly fight it alone? Let's all run away together," Kiana anxiously shouted, not believing Chen Luo could defeat this Emperor Honkai.

"Running is useless. This big guy is too fast. Don't worry, I can definitely defeat it. You have to believe me. Hurry to the Changkong City TV station, we'll meet there," Chen Luo yelled at Kiana, who was supporting Mei, then turned his head to look at the towering Emperor Honkai.

Chen Luo charged forward, holding the Unsheathed Sword, which was the size of a toothpick to the Emperor Honkai.

Chen Luo disappeared.

The Emperor Honkai also disappeared.

And after Chen Luo disappeared, Raiden Mei's hand twitched slightly...

At the same time, the Vision that Raiden Mei had tightly clutched, which had saved her once, slowly rolled out of her hand.

But strangely, the Vision had turned a void-like pale white.

[War Domain]

When Chen Luo and the Emperor Honkai appeared in the War Domain, the War Domain instantly simulated the surrounding environment. It was still a scene of ruins, but Raiden Mei and the others had vanished.

And Little Herrscher, as Chen Luo's accessory, was defaulted as Chen Luo's weapon and was also brought in.

"What should we do now?" Chen Luo asked, looking at the over 30-meter-tall Emperor Honkai surrounded by countless blades, feeling a headache.

"You didn't buy the Tai Xu Sword God when I told you to, and now you want me to step in, don't you? Tsk," Little Herrscher tugged on Chen Luo's hair, jumped down from his head, and instantly returned to normal human size.

"Next... let me assist you properly." The Herrscher of Knowledge revealed an excited smile as she looked at the Emperor Honkai before her.

At that moment, the Emperor Honkai seemed to feel a bone-chilling cold.

"I will—turn the tables!" Accompanied by the Herrscher of Knowledge's excited roar, the sound of something heavy hitting the ground followed.

Chen Luo had an epiphany.

So, this was what "assistance" meant: killing everyone who could threaten the main damage dealer.

This impression became even more profound, especially after Chen Luo spent a considerable amount of effort to finally finish off the Emperor Honkai, which the Herrscher of Knowledge had already beaten to 99% dead.

It took a lot of time to kill the Emperor Honkai, which was barely clinging to life, showing just how "competent" the Herrscher of Knowledge was as support.

Feeling the surging warmth within him and the excited hum of the Unsheathed Sword, Chen Luo smiled.

[Ding! Successfully defeated Emperor Honkai, obtained 200 raw stones]

[Raw stones have reached the limit and have been converted into an equivalent amount of Crystal.]

[Ding! Obtained 5% Honkai Energy Adaptation. Due to the significant difference in strength, an additional 5% Honkai Energy Adaptation was obtained.]

Current Honkai Energy Adaptation: 100.5%

Chapter 74: Herrscher Mei?!! (4K)

"Tsk, they only give this many raw stones?" Chen Luo said with displeasure, looking at the 200 raw stones.

This Emperor Honkai didn't seem like it was worth the same as 40 Militants. Even 400 Militants combined wouldn't be able to defeat it.

But oh well, he won by cheating anyway.

Perhaps that was why the raw stones were fewer.

However, the problem isn't too big. Killing a few more Militants will make up for it. The most important thing is that Chen Luo has already met the special conditions for the four-star achievement. As long as he kills about four hundred more Militants, Chen Luo will successfully obtain the four-star achievement.

That's right, Chen Luo had already killed over five hundred Militants in these past few hours, earning 1000 raw stones and over fifteen hundred Crystals.

This feeling of happiness almost made Chen Luo faint...

But after thinking about the usual gacha mechanics in the Honkai World, Chen Luo calmed down.

To draw a Herrscher Core, it takes 28,000 Crystals for a guaranteed one (S-rank character), and you'd need to draw duplicates to gradually restore the Herrscher Core's authority.

Even if Chen Luo killed ten thousand Militants and Honkai Beasts, calculating based on the base amount of 5 raw stones, that would only be fifty thousand Crystals. With bad luck, he'd only get one Herrscher Core.

Chen Luo figured it would be better to just make friends with those Herrschers and buy Herrscher Cores directly with Crystals.

Raiden Mei's Herrscher Core only cost ten thousand Crystals when purchased with Crystals, and that was before any discounts.

It was a shame that increasing affection would discount the raw stones needed for purchase, but when buying with Crystals, the discount was limited to friends within the Honkai World.

In conclusion, Crystals are inferior to raw stones!

However, Chen Luo wouldn't just buy Herrscher Cores, as some other things were equally precious, like Divine Keys and skills, as well as some other items...

That's right, Chen Luo was talking about the Tai Xu Sword God!

And Little Herrscher's Melee Grandmaster and Cold Weapon Grandmaster.

These were universal skills! They could provide basic enhancements to most abilities.

"Whoa!" As Chen Luo emerged from the War Domain after defeating the Emperor Honkai, a bolt of lightning grazed his body and struck the ground, startling Chen Luo greatly.

"What's going on... Holy crap, what's happening?" Chen Luo was shocked when he looked up and saw the source of the lightning.

High in the sky, a girl crackling with lightning hovered steadily, with a giant, winged half-circle of lightning suspended to her left.

Endless bolts of lightning rained down from the sky, announcing the Thunder Queen's wrath.

"I was only gone for a few minutes, and Raiden Mei already manifested her Herrscher form? Did Kiana get hurt? And Raiden Mei got stimulated?" The current situation stunned Chen Luo.

Although the War Domain could be adjusted so that time inside passed much faster than outside, Chen Luo felt it was unnecessary and hadn't done so.

Chen Luo immediately scanned his surroundings and saw Bronya slumped against a wall, with a large crater behind her, and Heavy Cannon Rabbit struggling to maintain its existence.

Then, his gaze fell upon Kiana, who was propping herself up with a shotgun, blood trickling from her lips, and a large, scorched wound on her chest.

"As I suspected, Kiana got hurt, but... the scorched wound on her looks like it was inflicted by Raiden Mei? Am I mistaken?" Chen Luo was still utterly bewildered.

"A'Luo, you're actually alive?" Kiana exclaimed with surprise.

Anyone who suddenly appeared on the battlefield would naturally attract the attention of others, especially when there were only four people on the battlefield in total.

"What's going on? Why did Mei suddenly turn into a Herrscher?" Seeing that Kiana had noticed him, Chen Luo immediately ran over, asking as he went.

Based on the current situation, Raiden Mei was clearly not someone he could approach easily, so he had to go to Kiana.

"Heavy Cannon Rabbit!" At the same time, Chen Luo didn't forget to call for backup.

Under Chen Luo's control, Heavy Cannon Rabbit dragged the unconscious Bronya towards them.

Just as Chen Luo was about to reach Kiana, a lightning strike hit the ground in front of him, forcing him to stop.

"Hahahaha, A'Luo, you're not dead?! That means you successfully killed that Emperor Honkai? Excellent, just as expected of my other half! Hahaha!" Raiden Mei, usually gentle and quiet, laughed wildly in the sky.

She looked a little devilishly charming.

And a bit chuunibyou!

"Kiana, what's going on? Why did Mei suddenly become a Herrscher? And why is she so chuunibyou?"

While asking, Chen Luo quietly shifted towards Kiana, but the sudden descent of purple lightning made him abandon the thought.

"Cough, cough, I don't know why Mei became chuunibyou, but she became a Herrscher because of you." Kiana said after coughing a couple of times.

"Huh? Because of me? You can eat anything but words. Didn't I tell you guys to wait for me at the TV station? Why did you start fighting?" Chen Luo didn't dare to admit he was responsible.

"That's what you said, but who believed you could kill that Emperor Honkai? We all thought you did it with a spirit of self-sacrifice. And shortly after you disappeared, Mei woke up and thought you were dead." Kiana explained.

"I disappeared, but why did you have so little faith in me? Why did you think I was dead instead of the other way around?"

Was his usual performance that pathetic?

"Other half! Look at me! Who allowed you to talk to other women! You said it yourself, didn't you? If this Vision loses its light, it means the owner is dead, right?"

A flickering electric light struck beside Chen Luo, interrupting his conversation with Kiana.

Herrscher Mei, exuding queenly aura as she floated in the sky, looked coldly at Chen Luo while holding up a Vision as she descended.

"Did you... lie to me?" As she spoke these words, the lightning around Raiden Mei intensified.

"..." Did he ever say that to Raiden Mei? He seemed to have.

"Hey Mei, I think you've misunderstood something. Death is indeed a way to make a Vision go blank, but it's not the only way. Being in a different world from the Vision can also cause it to lose its light. My skill just now was a method similar to that."

Chen Luo, located within the War Domain, was no longer able to be contacted by the Vision in the outside world, so it mistakenly believed Chen Luo was dead and naturally lost its light.

However, since this was an item drawn from the talent panel, Chen Luo could still use Wind Element Power even without contact with the Vision.

So, this probably, maybe, it seems... it really is his fault.

"So since it's a misunderstanding, Mei, could you go back for now and let the other Mei come out?" Chen Luo tried to reason with Herrscher Mei.

"Oh, so you hate me that much? You don't like me with power, and you prefer that coward?" Raiden Mei stopped when she was about a meter off the ground, the half-lightning wings behind her trembling slightly. Countless bolts of lightning descended from the sky, striking directly at Chen Luo.

Fortunately, Chen Luo dodged quickly enough to avoid the lightning.

"That's not it. You're both Mei, I know that, but... it's not good for you to always be out like this."

Herrscher personalities and Herrscher existences are actually quite confusing things. In fact, the Herrscher personality itself being Raiden Mei is undeniable.

When the Herrscher personality acknowledges the original body's consciousness, the Herrscher personality will naturally dissipate, allowing Raiden Mei to become her true self.

At least, that's how it is for Raiden Mei.

In the abandoned Changkong City of 2017, Raiden Mei voluntarily became the Herrscher of Thunder again. At that time, the Herrscher personality acknowledged Mei's personality and finally dissipated.

However, it's not advisable to treat these Herrscher personalities with complete kindness. For such Herrscher personalities, if they do not acknowledge the original body's personality, they should be given a harsh societal lesson.

"Hahaha! As expected of the half-self I acknowledge, unlike that white fluffball next to you, saying things like 'get out of my body.' However, your answer still leaves me very unsatisfied."

"Right now, I feel I have excellent control over the power of thunder and possess infinite strength, so I can protect you better. Never again will there be a situation where you have to risk your life for that coward. Is... is this not good?"

A massive bolt of lightning gathered in Raiden Mei's palm, showcasing her power as the Herrscher of Thunder.

"..."

Wait! Acknowledgment from a Herrscher personality?

Damn it! Don't tell me the "Raiden Mei's Acknowledgment" obtained after completing the "Omnipotent Traveler" mission was actually the Herrscher Mei's acknowledgment?

"In short, I can't explain it clearly to you. There are too many monsters and demons in this world, and existing as a Herrscher is too dangerous. So I advise you to go back quickly, or I'll have to take forceful measures."

Chen Luo genuinely cared for Herrscher Mei this time. After all, there weren't many who could tear apart a Herrscher in this world.
