Herta: Nurgle Knight, use your acid attack on the Silent Lord-quick!

"To be honest, I didn't expect the Aeon of Joy to be so easy to talk to." After successfully completing the deal and closing the Invitation Space, Herta stroked his chin, a look of disbelief still on his face.

"Logic: This transaction is not equivalent. Question: Chen Li, is there anything special about the mask you have?"

"There's nothing special about it, just the mask of an unlucky Masked Fool," Chen Li replied after signing the contract with Sparkle.

"What exactly is the Aeon of Joy planning?" Herta was still pondering.

"Perhaps for the Aeon of Joy, sending us before the Aeon of Intellect, and having the Aeon of Intellect, who only answers questions, directly answer our three questions, is amusing in itself. And don't forget, when the Aeon of Joy of Joy made the deal, he said he would 'deliver' us to that pile of scrap metal. Do you understand the meaning of the word 'deliver'? Believe me, it definitely won't be a pleasant experience," Chen Li said.

"..." by Herta & Screwllum.

"Why are you two looking at me like that? Do you think my analysis is wrong?" Chen Li tilted his head.

"I don't know what Screwllum is thinking. I'm thinking... in a sense, you, who can understand the logic of the Aeon of Joy, really should go to the hospital to get checked out," Herta retorted.

"... Aren't you saying that a bit too hurtful to me?" Chen Li asked tentatively.

"I'll hurt you, you tomato."

Tomato is tomato in English. The pronunciation of "hurt your tomato" and "hurt your head" are very close, which makes people laugh.

"I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a chill." The Herta, in its puppet form, suddenly covered its arms and trembled.

"Are you alright?" Chen Li asked with great concern.

"It's alright. Now we just have to wait for the Aeon of Joy's response. Speaking of which, after seeing the performance of that Unique Herta, I'm also thinking about whether to install a feeding module on the Herta dolls."

"Oh, where is the Little Herta now?"

"Having dinner with Haruhi Suzumiya, who was transported to this world through Asta's Friends Circle Terminal," the Herta dolls said after a moment of distortion in its eyes.

"Under the influence of the machine spirit, Little Herta's eating habits are actually quite special. Even if she drinks water laced with drugs, as long as you lie to her that it's just hot water, she can instantly return to normal. It's truly terrifying."

"Wait a minute, did you just say something outrageous? How did you get that kind of drug?" Herta paused, looking at Chen Li in astonishment.

"I ingested the leftovers from various poisons to increase my resistance to them. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Besides, as a puppet, Little Herta doesn't need any strange modules unless Little Herta Herta adds them randomly.

[But what if she feels she should have this function?]

"6"

"Forget it, I need to have Asta keep an eye on the Unique Herta to prevent her from inciting the other Herta dolls."

"Speaking of Herta dolls, Herta, have you ever considered installing something like a network connection on your Herta dolls?" Chen Li said, while showing Herta the explanation of Misaka Network.

"This thing... is possible, but unnecessary." Herta shook his head.

However, while Herta wasn't interested in the Misaka Network, it was interested in encyclopedias.

"Chen Li, how is our relationship?" Herta suddenly asked.

"Closest friends, brothers, and dearest relatives and friends." Chen Li gave a thumbs up.

"Then shouldn't you explain to me... about the plot?" Herta stared directly into Chen Li's eyes, those bright eyes now like precise scalpels, trying to dissect everything in Chen Li.

Why do you ask that?

"Because just now, when the other Herta dolls was taking Sirin to test the Herrscher of the Void Authority data, I saw Sirin holding a phone, looking at it while comparing it with the passing staff, as if she was looking for someone. Guess what I saw on her phone's cover photo?"

"What did you see?"

Side Adventure Quest [To: Dim Star]

"... Sirin is probably around this age too. Girls her age are indeed easily moved by stories full of youthful romance. So it's not surprising that she wants to offer a little help to the protagonist." Chen Li understood Sirin's mindset.

The Friends Circle Terminal has a privacy screen protection mechanism, but Friends Circle Terminal cannot access encyclopedia content because Friends Circle Terminal does not have internet access to the real world.

Otherwise, Haruhi Suzumiya would have known she was omnipotent long ago through her Friends Circle.

Ordinary mobile phones, of course, could not stop the Genius Society member from spying.

After reminding Sirin through his Friends Circle Terminal, Chen Li looked at the Herta with complete composure.

"You guessed right. From our world's perspective, everything that's happening here is not exactly the same as a certain game, but practically identical."

"And then, here comes you, the troublemaker," Herta said confidently.

"That's right."

"I guess I must be the protagonist in that game... No, according to the logic of general games, a character like me who starts with god-tier equipment can't be the protagonist, but he can't be completely without any role either, so he must be an important supporting character." Herta had just made a judgment when it was immediately refuted by itself.

"They are indeed important supporting characters, even Screwllum is one." Chen Li nodded.

"Logic: It might be related to the Simulated Universe project. From a future perspective, the Simulated Universe project is an indispensable part of the discussion," Screwllum rationally analyzed.

Screwllum is confident in the Simulated Universe project.

The Genius Society members, but it is extremely rare for four geniuses to come together and work on a single project.

"Genius." Chen Li gave a thumbs up.

"Isn't it time to reveal the plot to us?" Herta extended his hand to Chen Li.

"No."

"Why?"

"Because based on what I know about you, you'll definitely cause trouble after seeing the plot." Chen Li shook his head directly.

What If it were a storyline from another location, spoilers wouldn't be a problem, but the Herta Space Station happens to be the starting point.

Who knows what the consequences would be if the Herta, knowing the plot, secretly added some personal touches to the Stellaron?

Although the Stellaron Hunters don't necessarily need the Herta Space Station Stellaron (but it's important for the protagonist to make contact with Black Herta, the owner of the Herta Space Station), Chen Li really wants to see the one-year-old Stellaron baby wreak havoc in the universe.

Moreover, witnessing the birth of the "protagonist" up close will definitely earn you some great entries.

"Hakimi, you... all you do is slander people. I'm the most empathetic genius among all the Genius Society member."

"The encyclopedia says you're a genius with no empathy. But it's true you have a sound personality."

"Then the encyclopedia is wrong. And I feel that the second half of your comment is mixed with personal grudges. Does that sound like a compliment?"

"In short, the unparalleled and stunningly beautiful Ms. Herta is not someone I can entrust with the plot to you..."

"I can help Sirin resolve that so-called Dark Star plot issue," Herta suddenly said.

"What does it have to do with me that you're helping Sirin solve her problem?"

"Heh, I'll be waiting for your next words," Herta sneered.

When it comes to being stubborn, you and Sirin are equally matched.

I don't believe you for a second.

"But I can tell you a secret."

"What secret?"

"The secret behind why some of your studies encounter inexplicable problems at crucial moments."

"..."

"..."

10 minutes later...

"You damn bastard, I'm going to kill you!" Herta's entire body turned red instantly, and steam was rising from his head.

Herta's current mood is like that of a single woman who has been subjected to 50 consecutive "inch-stop challenges" in three days.

I was completely devastated!

Chapter 169 Herta: Nurgle Knight, quickly use acid attack on the Silent Lord!

"Are there any Miraculous Items that can guarantee life safety?"

"Yes," Chen Li said, showing his Friends Circle.

"Are there any Miraculous Item that can disguise themselves?"

"Yes." Chen Li took out his Disguise Glasses.

"Do you have any Miraculous Item that can allow me to summon people?"

"Yes, yes." Chen Li handed over the Pale Justice to the Herta.

"Is there Miraculous Item would allow me to manipulate others and completely control that bitch?"

"Yes, we have them all." Chen Li took out the Joy Dice and handed over the right to use them to Herta.

"Please reset the status of the Destiny Invitation Key for me."

"Okay, dear!" Chen Li used the Imaginary Value to recreate the state of the Destiny Invitation Key from 20 minutes ago to the present.

The broken Destiny Invitation Key instantly became whole again.

"I'm going to kill you!" Surrounded by gold rings, wearing Disguise Glasses, carrying a greatsword taller than herself on her shoulder, and holding a die in her other hand, Herta was ready to go.

"Keep it up, honey." Chen Li gave a thumbs up.

"Are you sure that using the Destiny Invitation Key can forcibly invite any character below the Aeon level?" Herta asked again, holding the key.

"I guarantee it! If you can't even invite her, I'll upgrade this Miraculous Item for you for free to the point where you can directly invite Aeon! Moreover, the Invitation Space can isolate cause and effect, which is perfect for restraining her," Chen Li assured him.

Although Chen Li did sacrifice the lower limit for the sake of the upper limit of the invitation, the lower limit is still god-level, and not just anyone can try to take advantage of it, okay?

Although the people Herta challenges are stronger than gods in general, they are ultimately not at the level of Aeon.

Polka Kakamu, also known as the Silent Lord, is the fourth member of the Genius Society.

She destroyed her own portraits and sculptures throughout the universe and is suspected of being involved in the deaths of numerous club members, including #27 Emperor Rupert, leading some to call her a genius killer.

She can expand into an "Omniscience Domain" in which she can decide all probabilistic events, thus becoming almost omniscient and omnipotent.

She relentlessly hunts down geniuses, attempting to limit the growth of knowledge in the universe and extinguish the possibility of chaos. And she kills those geniuses because they touch the edge of the realm of knowledge.

Therefore, the Genius Society is actually a list of high-risk talents.

Perhaps a so-called genius is someone who has touched the edge of the "Omniscience Domain" of the Erudition in a certain aspect.

Herta is clearly the focus of this genius's attention.

"Say the same line again: 'Summoning that knight who isn't guaranteed to be strong, but is guaranteed to be disgusting enough,'" Herta asked.

"We rise from filth and prosper from decay!" Chen Li said.

Are you sure you're disgusting enough?

"It's disgusting!"

After all, you're about to summon Nurgle Knight.

Saying he's covered in shit is actually a compliment!

"It's not disgusting, I want to come back for a refund!"

"Honey, there's absolutely no need to worry about not being disgusting enough. The only thing you need to be careful about is getting out before she destroys all the Friendship and Bonds she has in her Friends Circle. Otherwise, once she takes off her Disguise Glasses, your true identity will be exposed," Chen Li reminded her.

"Good!"

"Question: Why not seek out or forge a Miraculous Item capable of killing with a single blow?" Screwllum asked.

"How can we let her off so easily? She ruined my plans 19 times on Zhan Si Blue Star alone! I'll fight her to the death!" Herta gritted his teeth in anger.

"Let me correct you, your 19 attempts to save Azure Star weren't entirely due to your own failed experiments. Similarly, she didn't disrupt your 19 research attempts on Azure Star either," Chen Li said softly.

"I don't care! As long as I resolve the matter with the Aeon of Intellect, I'll use all my Destiny Invitation Keys on her every day from now on. I'm going to disgust her to death! An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. I'll retaliate tenfold, a hundredfold, a thousandfold against those who offend me, or I'll be unworthy of my title as a genius!"

"Yes, yes, I can tell you're holding a grudge. So what? Shall I give you an award?"

Anyway, I'm going now.

"Hey, wait a minute, find a secluded, deserted place first. Put on the fake special glasses first, then go in. It's best to make sure that the person you're meeting doesn't see anything on the other side of the door that could connect it to you," Chen Li reminded him.

"Oh."

Although Chen Li felt that Polka Kakamu had offended very few people, or rather, very few of them had survived. And those who could pose a threat to Polka Kakamu were even fewer.

Therefore, Polka Kaka will inevitably turn his attention to Chen Li sooner or later, after all, Chen Li's title is that of Miraculous Forger. Thus, the Herta will also inevitably come into Polka Kaka's view sooner or later.

However, the Herta didn't want complete concealment, but rather temporary concealment. Otherwise, the Herta would have already asked Chen Li to forge Miraculous Item.
