Armed Dolls and Repairing the Book of Cangxuan

Besides, if we don't change it, won't we always suffer from culture shock when we go on missions in other worlds?

This time, I was just having some trouble adjusting to my own world, only feeling a bit short of breath. But what if I were to die in another world?

It's just 4500 crystals, isn't it? Crystals are meant to be spent, aren't they?

Chen Luo was very unhappy that he had to spend money to modify the Herrscher Authority that he had clearly earned through his own efforts.

The good news is that Chen Luo can continue to fight Honkai Beasts and earn rewards as long as he actively shuts down the Herrscher's Body after the modification.

When you want to create Honkai Beasts, you can simply activate the Herrscher's Body.

It can be said to be absolutely perfect.

[The modification will take 24 hours. The system will then enter a dormant state. Would you like to begin immediately?]

"Wait a minute, I'm going back to bed first." After hearing this, Chen Luo hurriedly ran towards his room.

"Xiao Shi, remember to help me conceal my return and don't let anyone discover you. If there's any real problem, take me to the Zero Bar. I'm going to sleep for 24 hours," Chen Luo said to the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Leave it to me with confidence." The Herrscher of Knowledge nodded.

Back in his room, Chen Luo lay on his bed, feeling incredibly nostalgic. He began to think about whether he had forgotten anything, since he was going to sleep for 24 hours.

"Hmm, no one will come looking for me, and the bar even put up a 'Closed' sign. Everything's fine." Unable to think of anything missing, Chen Luo slowly fell into a deep sleep under the influence of his talent panel.

"Oh dear, another day of running out of money. But these research instruments are really necessary. Luckily, the wonderful shopkeeper provides meals." After receiving the latest astrology instruments and paying the balance, Mona sighed, her heart filled with anticipation.

What's the dish for today?

Hopefully it won't be too greasy, since I need to maintain my figure...

Chapter 121 Armed Puppet and the Repair of the Book of Cang Xuan

As time passed, the 24-hour countdown gradually reached zero.

Chen Luo opened the talent panel that he hadn't closed, and now it started to move.

The distance between the talent panel and Chen Luo's face should be at least 30 to 40 centimeters, which is also the optimal viewing distance.

But at the very moment the countdown reached zero, the distance on the talent panel subtly shifted backward by more than half a meter, and then...

The talent panel slammed directly into Chen Luo's face, shattering instantly. But Chen Luo sat up abruptly as if he had just had a nightmare.

"Holy crap, what happened?" Chen Luo, who suddenly felt an extremely terrifying palpitation for some reason, was instantly awakened from his sleep.

"What's wrong with you? Nothing happened?" The Herrscher of Knowledge appeared in front of Chen Luo instantly and sat down by Chen Luo's bedside.

The current scene is strikingly similar to the first meeting Herrscher of Knowledge and Chen Luo.

At that time, Herrscher of Knowledge was lying on the bed while Chen Luo was sitting by the bedside; now, Chen Luo is lying on the bed while Herrscher of Knowledge is sitting by the bedside.

"It's probably nothing, just my imagination." Chen Luo touched his face and breathed a sigh of relief after finding no abnormalities, wounds, or pain.

Maybe I slept for too long, which is why I had nightmares?

After all, sleeping for too long can feel really uncomfortable.

"How are you feeling now? Has the talent panel modified your body? Are you having any breathing difficulties?" Seeing that Chen Luo seemed fine, the Herrscher of Knowledge quickly asked.

"Has 24 hours already passed?" Chen Luo lay on the bed, looking at the sky outside the window.

It's around 4 p. m., but the sky outside is still very bright.

This made Chen Luo doubt whether he had slept for 24 hours.

"That's right, it's been 24 hours. During these 24 hours, you've maintained the most even breathing and the best sleep. Of course, you can also feel your physical strength slowly decreasing," said the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"You've been watching over me for 24 hours?" Chen Luo looked at the Herrscher of Knowledge with a hint of surprise.

For Herrscher of Knowledge, staying at home for 24 hours straight without going anywhere is indeed quite a Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Of course, I, the Herrscher of Knowledge, will naturally keep my promise. I didn't even go to the bar, although the bar wouldn't be able to open without you at all," the Herrscher of Knowledge said with considerable pride.

Because no matter what, being able to stay by someone's side for 24 hours and being discovered by them is something to be happy about.

Silent dedication isn't necessarily foolish; it just means that children often crave praise from their parents.

To be honest, which child who helps with housework doesn't stand there with a broom in hand, head held high, waiting for their parents' praise?

"Honestly, you really touched me. What you did was absolutely amazing. Is there anything you'd like to eat? Or how about we go shopping together? Or maybe we could go back to the Honkai World and cause some trouble, maybe even sabotage Schicksal?"

Hearing the words of the Herrscher of Knowledge, Chen Luo was also somewhat moved. It was only after spending a long time with the Herrscher of Knowledge he realized how busy she was. It was truly difficult for her to stay at home 24 hours a day and even stand by his bedside for a long time to observe him.

So it's perfectly normal for Chen Luo to want to give some reward.

As for why the last one to suggest dismantling Schicksal was because Chen Luo thought that this might make the Herrscher of Knowledge happy.

Besides, Otto specifically sent people to capture him, and Chen Luo needs time to repay this favor.

Another possibility is to see if I can meet Otto and get a 5-star quest.

Chen Luo genuinely believed that given Otto's obsession with Kallen, it was entirely possible for him to generate a five-star commission.

"As for a reward... there really is one. A Luo, aren't you a puppeteer? Can you repair puppets?" The Herrscher of Knowledge thought carefully before speaking to Chen Luo.

"Repairing a doll? Well, that depends on what kind of doll it is. If it's an ordinary doll, it can be repaired, but if it's a humanoid doll or a high-level doll with its own intelligence made of other materials, it will be more difficult." Hearing that the Herrscher of Knowledge actually had a wish, Chen Luo thought about it seriously.

Although it sounds a bit much for Chen Luo to have achieved this level, don't forget that Chen Luo only obtained the puppeteer profession a few days ago.

It hasn't even been a week yet.

Chen Luo hasn't even made a single proper doll yet.

Chen Luo was able to do what he just mentioned thanks to his Furniture Mastery.

The profession of puppeteer sounds like a side job that requires a lot of effort, so it's normal that it takes time to grow.

"What if it's Armed Puppet?" the Herrscher of Knowledge asked again.

"Armed Puppet?" Chen Luo was taken aback.

Chen Luo was no stranger to Armed Puppet; he currently had an unhatched Armed Puppet Pet Egg in his Storage Space.

Chen Luo still hasn't figured out what to use to incubate this pet egg.

In fact, Armed Puppet are a product of Previous Civilization Era.

Its official name is "Equipment: Living Form," an autonomous weapon created by scientists from the Previous Civilization Era of the Mu Continent to preserve humanity's fighting power.

In a sense, Armed Puppet are a combination of dolls and artificial life forms, rather than simply dolls.

Klein was created by Mobius himself.

The technical skill required to create Armed Puppet is also very high, but it is not a skill that only a few people can use.

Chen Luo learned about several Armed Puppet and their creators, including Mobius, the creator of Klein, and Cang Xuan and Danzhu, the creators of the Book of Cang Xuan.

Wait, the Book of Cang Xuan...

"Xiao Shi, you don't mean you want me to repair the Book of Cang Xuan, do you?" When Chen Luo thought of the Book of Cang Xuan and connected it with Fu Hua, a flash of inspiration struck him.

The Book of Cang Xuan was created by Cang Xuan and Danzhu to take care of Fu Hua's daily life.

"How did you know?" The Herrscher of Knowledge was greatly surprised.

"Well, after all, the only Armed Puppet I can think of related to you is the Book of Cang Xuan," Chen Luo said honestly.

"So, can you actually repair the Book of Cang Xuan?" the Herrscher of Knowledge asked.

"Yes, of course I can. Why not? The Book of Cang Xuan of Book of Cang Xuan isn't broken; it's of excellent quality. It's just out of energy. Let alone repairing the Book of Cang Xuan, even if you asked me to create one, I could barely manage to do so if I had the materials," Chen Luo said confidently.

This is not only because Chen Luo's puppeteer skills have reached the master level.

Another reason is the Mobius gift that Mobius gave him, "Mei Biu Si's Scalpel," which came with a whole bunch of professional skills.

This includes the creation of artificial life forms.

So if it's just a matter of repair, Chen Luo will be fine.

Chen Luo wasn't sure if Mobius, who had come to his bar, was now creating artificial life forms, but Mei Biu Si's Scalpel certainly was.

For example, Mobius's Hyper-Evolution Surgery is not yet very proficient, and may even only be at the skilled level, but Mei Biu Si's Scalpel comes with a proficiency level.

In short, you might not believe it, but in some fields, Mei Biu Si's Scalpel might be even more powerful than Mobius's.

This is probably what makes the favorability gift so amazing.

However, what's rather frustrating is that the skills included with this favorability gift are all only at the mastery level.

Chen Luo didn't know if all favorability gifts were like this, or if it was just Mobius's favorability, or if it was because his Furniture Mastery was only at the master level.

Honestly, Chen Luo really hopes to get some kind of skill upgrade stone so he can upgrade his Furniture Mastery to furniture master.

"Really? You're not just spouting nonsense, are you? If it can't be repaired, it can't be repaired. I don't care." The Herrscher of Knowledge looked at Chen Luo with some disbelief.

Because Chen Luo agreed too readily.

"Why would I lie to you? Even if you don't believe me, you should at least believe in Furniture Mastery, right? I really can repair Armed Puppet. And even if I really can't, I can just touch the Book of Cang Xuan with my Furniture Mastery skill, right? Besides, the Book of Cang Xuan Profound is just out of power; it's really easy to add some energy to it. Have you forgotten? Don't we have Honkai Energy Crystal?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Chen Luo wasn't quite sure what kind of energy Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu used when they created the Book of Cang Xuan, but among all the items created in the Honkai World, Honkai Crystal were truly a universal energy source.

For any weapon or item related to Honkai, Honkai Crystal are always a safe bet.

Even if the models don't match, Chen Luo can adjust the Honkai Crystal to make it compatible.

"Alright, I believe you." The Herrscher of Knowledge nodded.

Because those Herrscher of Knowledge know that Chen Luo rarely exaggerates; in some ways, Chen Luo is quite honest.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Repair the Book of Cang Xuan]: Awaken the Book of Cang Xuan, which has fallen into hibernation due to energy depletion, and restore its normal function.

Reward: 200 Primogem + random reward.

Difficulty: 3 stars

"A three-star mission with the lowest reward of Primogem," Chen Luo said, stroking his chin.

Having completed so many missions, Chen Luo has figured out the upper and lower limits of the rewards for missions of different star levels.

For example, the minimum reward for a three-star mission is 200 Primogem, and anything lower would be a two-star mission.

"What? I got a commission?" Herrscher of Knowledge asked curiously after hearing Chen Luo's words.

Since there was nothing to keep secret from the Herrscher of Knowledge, Chen Luo just said it directly.

The Herrscher of Knowledge, however, did not object to Chen Luo accepting his commission, or perhaps he thought that given his relationship with Chen Luo, it was inconceivable that he would need to entrust him with a commission.

Chen Luo's talent was originally meant to help fulfill wishes, so it's only natural that he would fulfill his own needs.

Moreover, given the relationship between the Herrscher of Knowledge and Chen Luo, the Herrscher of Knowledge would like to create a high-level mission for Chen Luo that is easy to complete and offers high rewards, but the Herrscher of Knowledge simply cannot do it.

"That's right, it's a three-star mission, with a reward of 200 Primogem," Chen Luo said without any hesitation.

"How come it's only 200 Primogem?" The Herrscher of Knowledge was even more dissatisfied than Chen Luo.

"Not bad. I figured you didn't really want to awaken the Book of Cang Xuan. The reason this mission was upgraded to three stars is because of its difficulty. After all, if restoring energy wasn't so troublesome, the Book of Cang Xuan wouldn't have been dormant since the Tang Dynasty and still hasn't been awakened," Chen Luo complained.

Sometimes, huge gaps can indeed form between worlds.

Awakening the Book of Cang Xuan is simply a matter of changing the battery. This method might have been feasible for many people in Previous Era, but very few people in the present civilization know how to do it.

If Chen Luo didn't have the profession of puppeteer, the puppeteer's Stigmata, and Mei Biu Si's Scalpel, Chen Luo really wouldn't have dared to do this job so easily.

Therefore, the poor Book of Cang Xuan is still asleep.

"But speaking of which, why did you revive the Book of Cang Xuan?" Chen Luo couldn't help but ask.

"Keep it a secret, keep it a secret. Also, you're not allowed to take on the same mission from that old relic again, because you have to keep it a secret from him too," the Herrscher of Knowledge said to Chen Luo.

"Okay, okay."

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Confidential]

Reward: 100 Primogem

Difficulty: Two stars

Good heavens, repairing the Book of Cang Xuan only gives 200 Primogem, but a secret mission gives 100 Primogem directly. If you say that reviving the Book of Cang Xuan has nothing to do with Fu Hua, Chen Luo will never believe it.
