Herrscher of Sentience: No One Can Fool Me! How Boring.

"It's good that it's not a ghost, it's good that it's not a ghost."

"..." Fu Hua remained silent.

Good grief, you guys didn't listen to what you said, but Chen Luo just said one sentence and you believed it?

Even though the other party is telling the truth and basically never lies, you can't treat them differently like this.

We've been friends for 40,000 years!

Although the vast majority of those 40,000 years were spent in the same batch of cryogenic chambers.

Cang Xuan Danzhu was chosen to assist Fu Hua in carrying out the mission of the Fire Seed, so naturally they both woke up in the same place.

But never mind, it's good that the misunderstanding has been cleared up.

"But be careful not to get burned when you two come into contact with her outside. After all, when you revive her, you also make her the Herrscher of Flame again," Chen Luo cautioned.

"!!!" Upon hearing Chen Luo's instructions, Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu, who had just stepped out from behind Chen Luo and Himiko, froze for a moment. Then, almost instantly, they both took a few steps back and hid behind Chen Luo again.

Herrscher of Flame!!!

In the era of Cang Xuan and Danzhu, Herrscher were synonymous with villains, and there were no exceptions.

It's impossible for Herrscher the current civilization to train, have fun, and fight against Honkai together with ordinary Valkyrie.

Especially the Herrscher of Flame, one of the most destructive Herrscher.

Although Cang Xuan and Danzhu have grown, they are still no match for the Herrscher of Herrscher of Flame.

The two of them combined aren't enough to burn the Herrscher of Flame for 10 seconds.

"Cang Xuan and Danzhu, listen to me. Although our captain has become Herrscher again, she has indeed regained her normal rationality and would not do anything to harm her teammates," Fu Hua said with a sigh.

"..." Cang Xuan and Danzhu did not speak, but Fu Hua still noticed their wariness.

Cang Xuan and Danzhu are currently in a state where they believe in Fu Hua, but not in the Herrscher of Flame.

To be fair, Cang Xuan and Danzhu had considerable faith in Fu Hua.

After all, they had been comrades-in-arms for many years and were close friends, so there was nothing they couldn't trust. But Hua was too honest and too easily deceived.

Cang Xuan and Danzhu trusted Fu Hua, but they were also afraid that Cang Xuan Fu Hua would be deceived by others.

After all, the title of "Honest Chinese" wasn't given lightly.

"Hua, you can't trust people so easily. There are just too many swindlers in this world."

"..." Fu Hua sighed helplessly.

Fu Hua then turned her gaze to Chen Luo.

It's your turn to step in.

"Don't worry, you two. I resurrected him myself and implanted the Herrscher Core myself. Don't you trust my skills?"

"Oh, is that so? Then it's alright. You should have said so earlier." Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu walked out from behind Chen Luo with some impatience, looking at Chen Luo with a hint of reproach.

It's as if to say, why didn't you tell me this sooner?

"You two trust your manager way too much, don't you? You just believe whatever he says?" Himiko asked curiously, looking at Cang Xuan and Danzhu who had emerged from behind Chenluo Mountain again.

Himiko had very limited knowledge of Chen Luo, and was therefore very curious.

"Hua is good in every way, except that he's too trusting. But Chen Luo is different; he's incredibly shrewd. And as far as I know, you might be able to fool him on small matters, but he's never been fooled on important issues that need to be addressed. This is a consensus in the Mei Biu Si Laboratory, and it's never been wrong," Danzhu said, waving his hand.

Both Cang Xuan and Danzhu believed in Hua and Chen Luo.

In other aspects, it's hard to compare, but when it comes to judging whether the other party is telling the truth, Chen Luo holds absolute authority in the eyes of Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu.

Hearing this, Chen Luo was also stunned for a moment, and then looked at one of the two items he had just obtained.

[The Mountain and River Summer Retreat Scripture] and [108 Methods to Prevent Scams]

Incidentally, after successfully reviving Himiko, and with the additional 10 favorability points awarded by the Herrscher of Knowledge, the Herrscher of Knowledge's discount level successfully reached 10%.

It's the kind of item where you could buy almost all of the Herrscher of Knowledge in a single 10-pull.

As for the effect of a 10% discount?

Hmm... I didn't feel any effect. The Herrscher of Knowledge is still mischievous when he should be.

108 Methods to Prevent Scams

The first sentence: Beware of being scammed by your own mother.

Chapter 593 Herrscher of Knowledge: No one can fool me! How boring.

Beware of scams perpetrated by your own mother.

Beware of scams committed by your own father.

[Guard against...]

"... This book covers everyone who could potentially be fooled, right? That's why it's called '108 Methods to Prevent Scams'?"

"Yes, yes, that's right. As long as you don't trust everyone, you won't be fooled. It's so simple and straightforward." Chen Luo sighed as he looked at the ridiculously thin book in his hand.

From a general rational point of view, this thing is indeed correct, but from a general rational point of view, this thing is also indeed useless.

But the content itself isn't important; what matters is the book's passive effect.

[108 Methods to Prevent Scams]: If you have no woman in your heart, fraud prevention will naturally follow. (Preface, page 1: Forget about your sweetheart.)

Effect: After experiencing the 108 Methods to Prevent Scams, you will not be deceived by anyone when you hold this book in your hand.

(The Herrscher of Knowledge: No one can fool me at all. How boring.)

No wonder Danzhu Cang Xuan said that it was impossible to fool Chen Luo in any major event. With this thing, who could fool Chen Luo?

But will this thing work if it's in my backpack?

In short, this thing is very effective. As long as you have this book with you when negotiating with others, you won't have to worry about being deceived.

Especially when signing a contract, having the other party swear that they have not done anything underhanded can truly prevent fraud.

Honestly, authenticating contracts for others is the most mentally taxing activity Chen Luo has ever done, bar none.

"So this thing is actually quite useful."

"What about this Mountain and River Summer Retreat Scripture?" Chen Luo looked at another prop.

[The Mountain and River Summer Retreat Scripture]: This stuff really can help you beat the summer heat, really.

Effect:

Summer Heat Relief: This item takes effect automatically. Once placed in your backpack, it will free the user from the discomfort of heat, allowing them to enjoy freedom of refuge at all times.

Hidden Effect: When a user possesses both the Mountain and River Summer Retreat Scripture and the [Inch-Punch Sky-Splitting], the Mountain and River Summer Retreat Scripture will activate a hidden effect: when you attack others, your attacks will deal additional true damage. The more times you attack others, the more true damage your attacks will deal.

"This thing is a perfect match for the Inch-Punch Sky-Splitting. I just don't know how effective it will be in actual use. Others can scrape the skin, but I can scrape the bone. Mom won't have to worry about not being able to kill those damn high-HP monsters anymore. But I need to find a way to get a skill or training method that allows me to attack multiple times in a short period of time."

"After all, it used to be a one-off deal."

"I just don't know if the fire damage from the explosion of the Insanely Modified Thermobaric Bomb is considered continuous damage and whether it can be counted in the combo count."

But Chen Luo knew that the Tai Xu Sword God was probably not a combo skill.

The power of the Tai Xu Sword God is one that becomes stronger the stronger the user is.

Chen Luo didn't regret not immediately exchanging for the Tai Xu Sword God before, because when Chen Luo 'Chen Luo strength wasn't strong enough, the Tai Xu Sword God he used was not even as powerful as a casual normal attack from the Herrscher of Knowledge.

However, for Chen Luo now, the Tai Xu Sword God can be considered a standard finishing move, the key being that it consumes little energy and has no side effects.

More importantly, he's very handsome.

He's really handsome.

"Chen Luo, tell me the truth, did you take that outfit you gave me before from this guy?" Himeko quietly walked up to Chen Luo's side, watching Himiko reminiscing with Cang Xuan Dan Zhu, who looked almost exactly like her.

The other person looks very much like her, even exactly the same. If it weren't for the fact that her father had never cheated, Himeko would have suspected that the other person was a relative of hers in some special way.

But that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the clothes the other person is wearing look very familiar to Himeko.

This is not unrelated to the outfit Chen Luo gave Himeko recently, which caused her to catch fire from time to time due to the awakening of Himeko Stigmata. It can only be said that it is exactly the same.

"..." Chen Luo's eyes darted around.

Chen Luo couldn't very well say that the outfit he gave to Himeko a while ago was taken from a dead person, could he?

Of course, it wasn't exactly stripped off; Chen Luo used Honkai Crystal to copy it, but it did indeed originate from Himiko.

"Theresa, come here. Let's discuss Kiana's education. Don't you think that Kiana's development is too lax by only attending classes at the St. Freya Academy? I have a pretty good training base here. Let's talk about studying abroad together." Chen Luo said, naturally bypassing Himeko and pulling Theresa, who was staring at Himiko and analyzing the differences between her and Himeko, over.

"Hey, don't change the subject," Himeko said.

"Study abroad? What study abroad? What kind of weirdos are you trying to cram into my St. Freya Academy this time? Tell me!"

Upon hearing the words "studying abroad," Theresa instinctively looked at Chen Luo with wariness.

It's almost become an instinctive reaction.

It's no wonder Theresa is overly wary; Theresa feels that Chen Luo has almost completely ruined her St. Freya Academy.

Look at all the weird and wonderful people at the St. Freya Academy these days!

What Valkyrie School would have so many strange things?

Leaving aside the number of Herrscher, there are even more ancient relics from thousands or tens of thousands of years ago.

"What you said hurt me a little. When have I ever cheated you? When there's something good to be had, I always think of you. Look how much the teaching staff at the St. Freya Academy has improved after my help," Chen Luo, somewhat sadly.

Chen Luo never expected that his help would ultimately earn him this kind of evaluation from Theresa.

"In a sense, the teaching staff has indeed become stronger, and we should thank you for that, but there are also more strange people among them."

Moreover, Theresa felt that her status at school was declining because there were many people of higher status than her.

First of all, you can't put on airs in front of Ji Xuanyuan, can you?

Even disregarding their combat strength, they are still ancient heroes who sacrificed themselves for the Honkai 5,000 years ago.

Secondly, Theresa, as the headmistress, didn't even have a way to restrain Yae Sakura, after all, the other party was her grandmother's generation.

Then there's Theresa's increasingly strange way of looking at Fu Hua.

Although the other person was indeed a very good student and knew to address the headmaster, Theresa had felt something was off ever since she learned that he was the Immortal Crimson Kite had almost destroyed Schicksal 500 years ago.

Now, as soon as Chen Luo opens his mouth, Theresa knows that Chen Luo wants to send people to her school.

If things continue like this, St. Freya will eventually become Far East Demon Cave.

"Theresa, have you misunderstood something? I really didn't mean to push anyone onto you this time. I just wanted to introduce Kiana and the others to a good training place."

"And don't you think you've misunderstood my request? What I just said was not only a request but also an order. Don't forget that Schicksal is mine now," Chen Luo said, patting Theresa's head.

"..."

Theresa was momentarily speechless.

Theresa knew that her grandfather had sold the entire Schicksal to save her grandmother, but he had left her the identity of the Apocalypse family, which could be considered an inheritance.

Even if his grandfather hadn't died, he would never have become the head of the family in this lifetime.

Moreover, Theresa also knew that Chen Luo, the actual person in control of Schicksal in secret, was so lazy that he had never even appeared in Schicksal.

This is also the first time Chen Luo has exercised his privileges.

"Although you established the Far East Branch, it is still nominally under the control of Schicksal. Why can't I put a few people in there?"

"Is that a person you're stuffing in? That's not even a person. Chen Luo, don't tell me you're planning to stuff this Previous Era's Herrscher of Flame into our school too," Theresa said, pointing at the Herrscher of Flame over there.

At least Ji Lin and Corrupted Ji Lin are definitely not human.

Moreover, after Theresa first saw the Herrscher of Flame and learned of her identity, Theresa knew that Chen Luo might become another burden for her.

"Of course, the people you've sent here have indeed been a great help to the development of the St. Freya Academy, but this Himiko looks exactly like Himeko. What will happen to Himeko after she arrives?"

This is actually what Theresa is most worried about.

Theresa wouldn't say she accepted everyone Chen Luo arranged, but she didn't reject them much either.

While this makes St. Freya Academy more and more like the Far East Demon Cave, the benefits are also obvious.

Although Theresa is called "Durandal," she is not really silly.
