Firearms Mastery, Swordsmanship Mastery, Fist Mastery, Blade Mastery, Demolition Mastery, Finger Mastery, Tank Driving Mastery, Star Destroyer Driving Mastery...
"They all looked so damn awesome!" Chen Luo drooled as he looked at the screen full of every kind of mastery ability.
But then again, if he got Star Destroyer Driving Mastery, would it come with a Star Destroyer?
And if he got Blade Mastery, where was he supposed to get a blade? Would a kitchen knife count?
And firearms... weren't those prohibited items?
With those thoughts in mind, Chen Luo understood that his worries had been completely unnecessary when the roulette stopped on a certain slot.
Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained (Furniture Mastery).
"Fuck!!!"
Fuck your whole family!
What the hell use was this crappy Furniture Mastery?
Did it expect him to pick up a refrigerator and fight someone with it?
A flash of blade light passed by. The scallion Chen Luo had tossed into the air was instantly cut into several pieces, which were then steadily caught by the frying pan in his right hand.
All right, Chen Luo had misunderstood Furniture Mastery. This was basically Cooking Mastery, damn it.
"Wow, A-Luo, your knife skills are amazing. You actually wielded such a tiny kitchen knife with such mastery." The Herrscher of Knowledge, who was watching Chen Luo cook, could not help marveling.
"Thanks for the compliment, but I only know how to use kitchen knives," Chen Luo said coldly.
Furniture Mastery: You can perfectly control and use all household items. In a furniture store, you are invincible!
Thinking about it carefully, this Furniture Mastery was not actually a useless ability.
Although Chen Luo had no idea why kitchenware was included under furniture.
Chen Luo actually felt that Furniture Mastery ought to be renamed Household Item Mastery.
Anyway, it was just...
How should he put it? At the very least, it made him exceptionally good at cooking.
Hmm, maybe he could carry more furniture in his backpack.
Chen Luo's gaze landed on the boning knife at the edge of the kitchen.
That thing seemed to count as a household item too.
Then Chen Luo looked at the frying pan in his hand.
Frying Pan Mastery? Red Wolf?
All pans return to one?
As expected, Chen Luo received praise from the Herrscher of Knowledge while they ate. Even he himself was a little surprised.
His cooking, which had previously only been good enough to keep himself from starving, had somehow produced such delicious dishes.
"But where should I put that shop add-on I just got?" Chen Luo wondered as he ate.
Chen Luo had not expected his ten-pull to actually draw a shop.
Its purpose... seemed to be helping Chen Luo expand his business scope, with business from beyond this world.
But why was it Zero Bar?
Where was he supposed to buy alcohol?
Would canned beer work?
The Wonderful Uses of a Father-Daughter Relationship
"Alright, we're done eating. You wash the dishes! I'll get ready and take you out to uphold justice!" After dinner, the Herrscher of Knowledge immediately dumped the responsibility on him.
"You've got the nerve to not wash the dishes?" Chen Luo glared furiously!
"The Herrscher of Knowledge changed your consciousness. The Herrscher of Knowledge doesn't need to wash dishes!" the Herrscher of Knowledge said righteously.
"..." Chen Luo knew that when she used her Authority on him, it would not affect him, but his head would ache for a moment.
But! That had not happened this time, which meant she was simply trying to get out of washing the dishes!
"You might as well actually change my consciousness!"
"That's impossible. I'm the Herrscher of Knowledge. How could I use my Authority over something so trivial? Wouldn't that make me a child?" The Herrscher of Knowledge snorted.
"That makes sense, but I cooked, so you're washing the dishes!" Chen Luo hated washing dishes.
"...The Herrscher of Knowledge altered your consciousness. You now want to wash the dishes."
Chen Luo's head hurt for a moment.
"..." And she still said she wasn't a child???
"I suddenly want to wash the dishes." Chen Luo silently picked up the bowls and chopsticks.
This Herrscher of Knowledge... made Chen Luo feel like he was raising a child.
Served her right for getting scammed over the phone by her own mother!
While the Herrscher of Knowledge watched television, Chen Luo had seriously looked up information about her.
And he had discovered her true identity.
Well damn, no wonder she had looked familiar. She was that eternally flat-chested one.
Chen Luo had seen this character before, but did not know much about her. The reason he had not recognized her immediately was that the Herrscher of Knowledge dressed and carried herself very differently from that Shenzhou flat-chest.
No wonder the name Fu Hua had sounded so familiar.
"Mm-hmm, washing dishes is a fine civilization." The Herrscher of Knowledge nodded in satisfaction.
"What? You're saying you're not going?"
"That's right. I have something to do tonight, so I can't accompany you in upholding justice. Really, I'm not lying to you," Chen Luo said sincerely.
"Emmm, all right then."
The Herrscher of Knowledge seemed moved by Chen Luo's sincerity, so she agreed to go together tomorrow. Today, she would scout out the enemy situation by herself first.
After brushing off the Herrscher of Knowledge, Chen Luo went up to the second-floor balcony of his house.
From there, Chen Luo could see the Herrscher of Knowledge cheerfully heading outside.
She thought Chen Luo was seeing her off, so she happily waved at him.
"Come to think of it, I never expected this Father-Daughter relationship could be used like this. It's honestly bizarre." Watching the Herrscher of Knowledge's retreating figure, Chen Luo glanced at his talent interface.
Perhaps because Chen Luo had unilaterally established their relationship, and because a Father-Daughter relationship was particularly special, he could use guardian privileges on his talent interface to check the Herrscher of Knowledge's location.
For example, right now, Chen Luo could tell that the Herrscher of Knowledge had somehow left the tightly guarded residential complex.
There were actually quite a few surveillance cameras and security guards in Chen Luo's residential complex. The reason he could climb over the railing and enter directly after school was because they all knew him, so they did not stop him.
"Wait, now that I think about it, how did Yun Xia get into the complex? She didn't notify me either?" Chen Luo suddenly remembered this.
Chen Luo vaguely recalled that entering the complex required the approval of a resident, right?
The guardian privileges granted by his talent could only determine her location. He could also make remote calls to her, but Chen Luo did not dare try.
What if he remotely called her and she asked how he had done it? Was Chen Luo supposed to tell her it was because they were Father-Daughter?
Wouldn't she beat him to death?
Besides checking her location and making remote calls, becoming her guardian also let him shield himself from her Mind Reading to a certain extent.
Otherwise, when Chen Luo had inwardly mocked her for deservedly getting scammed by her own mother earlier, he should have already been beaten black and blue.
Chen Luo had initially thought that having guardian privileges would allow him to beat her. Now it seemed that had been wishful thinking.
"Alright, first let's see what this Zero Bar actually is." After seeing that she had gone far away, Chen Luo stood on his second-floor balcony and began summoning the first add-on for his talent.
Honestly, Chen Luo increasingly felt that his talent was not a proper talent at all.
Could a proper talent produce things even Chen Luo himself knew nothing about?
Emmm, he could not figure it out.
Since he could not figure it out, he would not think about it. It was his talent, after all. It would not harm him.
When Chen Luo chose to deploy Zero Bar on the second-floor balcony, the phantom image of a tiny pocket-sized bar appeared there.
Unless someone examined it closely from nearby, they would not notice the phantom at all.
And it was a little too tiny. The balcony could completely accommodate it, with plenty of room to spare.
"That's it? It's only this big? How could it run a bar?" Chen Luo froze.
Yet the talent panel showed that this was already the bar's fully deployed form.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Luo pushed open the phantom-like door.
Dim yellow light shone from within. Once he crossed the threshold, a low-key yet luxurious and cozy establishment appeared before Chen Luo.
The shop was not large, but it was bigger than the balcony outside. It could easily hold several dozen people, and it even had a second floor.
Chen Luo was not sure exactly what this was.
As soon as he entered, there was a counter a short distance ahead, and the display cabinet behind it was completely empty.
Overall, it was a rather cozy little tavern. It did not look particularly modern, carrying a retro atmosphere.
"Isn't this Angel's Share? Are you bullying me because I haven't played Genshin Impact?" Chen Luo pointed at the counter in front of the bartender and loudly complained to the talent panel.
"You know what, I really haven't played for very long." When the talent panel completely ignored him, Chen Luo could only answer himself.
Genshin Impact was quite popular in Chen Luo's world, but unfortunately, he truly had not played it for long.
The reason Chen Luo knew this tavern was Angel's Share was mostly because he had watched the PV of a certain grudge-holding knight.
Come to think of it, Chen Luo had once been a veteran Honkai Impact 3rd player. Unfortunately, he later no longer had time to play.
After entering high school and awakening his talent panel, Chen Luo had still had the time to play Honkai Impact 3rd during the first year. Sadly, he became busier and busier afterward, and could only set the game aside.
For instance, Chen Luo knew Fu Hua but did not know the Herrscher of Knowledge, because the Herrscher of Knowledge had not been released at the time.
When the Herrscher of Knowledge introduced herself back then, Chen Luo had thought they merely shared the same name, so he had not paid attention.
"I never expected that I'd get to see characters from games in this life. It's time to pick those games back up. They might be useful in the future," Chen Luo muttered softly.
Attribute-less Vision
The reason Chen Luo said these games might be useful was because the information contained in his ten-pull was immense.
At the same time, the Herrscher of Knowledge's appearance and this Traveler talent gave Chen Luo an even stronger sense of déjà vu.
Because he had quit for quite a long time and had not played for long to begin with, Chen Luo had not remembered what a Traveler was at first. Only later did he think of Genshin Impact.
So the question was, did Genshin Impact appear first and then the Traveler, or did the Traveler appear first and then Genshin Impact?
Chen Luo's talent panel had appeared about two years ago, but Genshin Impact had only appeared a little over a year ago.
Chen Luo did not know whether his talent had been fixed before the panel awakened and merely needed to be unlocked through missions, or whether it was a talent randomly drawn after completing all the missions.
But Chen Luo leaned more toward the former. This was his talent; it was simply appearing in a form that was easier for him to understand.
Although Chen Luo had not played Genshin Impact for long, he still had his memories.
No wonder the term Primogems had stirred something in him.
This question was far too complicated, so for now, he returned to that ten-pull.
The gacha interface on the Traveler screen was not refined. It was even a little crude, but none of that mattered. What mattered was that it could draw prizes.
Chen Luo had a total of 1,605 Primogems.
One thousand Primogems were the talent reward Chen Luo received for awakening his talent, or perhaps they could be called commission rewards. However, because he had not successfully activated his talent before, the storage limit had only been 1,000 Primogems, making Chen Luo feel as though he had lost several hundred million.
After all, a small commission should reasonably give five Primogems. Wouldn't 1,000 commissions amount to 5,000 Primogems?
