A Miraculous Forger Starting from Honkai

Each time a friend was summoned by Chen Li to assist in battle, they could choose one of the following: +1 lifespan, +1 Luck for one day, or 1 meter of teleportation distance.

These rewards corresponded to Starstones' Time, Fate, and Space attributes. Chen Li's additional tips were calculated separately, though there was a daily limit on tips.

The more times they were summoned to assist in battle, the more options they could unlock.

There was also a function that allowed friends to communicate freely for free.

Choose Someone for a Face-to-Face Conversation? Of Course, the Great Benevolent Dr. White!

Chen Li explained every detail of the friend system to Elysia, and after patiently listening, Elysia still agreed to this friend request.

Though... as long as the other party had accepted Chen Li's Miraculous Item, they simply could not refuse his friend request.

Miracles were never free.

But such extreme measures were meant for tricking villains, not friends.

"It's done," Chen Li said.

"It's already done? Sigh, all good things must come to an end. It's time to part ways again..." Elysia seemed a little dejected.

"Don't make it sound like I'm leaving and never coming back. I've already placed a Miracle Beacon in this world. As long as I spend enough Starstones, I can return. Besides, I can't bear to leave this world, so I might be back very soon," Chen Li said.

Whenever Chen Li performed a miraculous deed in a Serendipitous Encounter World, obtained a Miracle Card, or forged a Miraculous Item, he could spend one Miracle Crystal to condense a Miracle Beacon in that world at any time.

A Miracle Beacon could be placed in a fixed location or used for random teleportation.

Chen Li chose the former. The location was where he was currently leaving from.

This place might not necessarily be safe, but at least he would not be teleported to some corner of the world and have to run all the way back to Moth Chasing Flame.

"Then... goodbye. Oh, right, how should I explain this to the others?" Elysia hurriedly asked.

"Just tell them I've gone to restock. If anyone needs me, have them send me a message." After saying that, Chen Li waved to Elysia. Three seconds later, his figure vanished from where he stood.

Just as Chen Li had said, he really was returning to his Main World to restock.

Some of his own Relics were still sitting in the basement of his house. Those were all excellent materials for forging Miraculous Items.

...The girl was praying...

Settlement in progress. Please wait...

In a void-like space, Chen Li hugged his Miraculous Forging Guide as he drifted aimlessly through the emptiness.

This stage was both purifying Chen Li and reviewing his actions and gains in this Serendipitous Encounter World, before giving him an appropriate evaluation.

In the past, the Miracle System—or rather, Miracle Light—mainly relied on this stage to summarize the miraculous deeds it had performed within a world and obtain Miracle Power.

Unfortunately, the overly pure Miracle System simply could not defeat the despicable locals. Every time it carried out a miracle, it ended up with nothing to show for it, sometimes even losing everything it had invested.

If the Miracle System had not possessed a large amount of Miracle Power from the very beginning due to the "miracle of its birth," it might have dissipated after exhausting its Miracle Power before ever encountering Chen Li.

In other words, perhaps the Miracle System arriving in Chen Li's world had been its own "serendipitous encounter."

However, after Chen Li took over, Miracle Power changed from being settled after a world ended to being settled immediately. Therefore, the settlement would not grant much Miracle Power and would only award corresponding "Miracle Easter Eggs" based on Chen Li's actions.

Every time Chen Li did something related to miracles, he had a chance during settlement to obtain a free one-time miracle related to it.

That was why Chen Li had only been willing to leave after forging three Miraculous Items—he wanted to increase the number of Easter Eggs he could choose from and give himself more options.

Every scene from Chen Li's time in this Serendipitous Encounter World had turned into Crystal Balls in this space, surrounding him in varying degrees of brightness.

Among them, four scenes shone the brightest.

They were the moment Chen Li obtained the Miracle Card—Comeback Kid—and the moments he forged three Miraculous Items.

Several dozen photos of varying brightness summarized all of Chen Li's deeds in this world worthy of praise.

Evaluation: Unprecedented.

Reward: Choose any two.

Summary: Master, it's me again! Did you miss me? For a newcomer, this journey has already been quite outstanding. This unprecedented evaluation is based on my more than one hundred "zero" ratings, so please do not feel any psychological burden. No matter what you do, you will at least be better than me. Please remember: every one of your actions in any world may become part of a miracle. That is the secret to obtaining more precious Easter Eggs.

After reading the summary, Chen Li did not know what to say.

Getting more than a hundred "zero" ratings—this Miracle System was truly gifted in a remarkable way.

Next came the time to choose his rewards.

The Easter Eggs around Chen Li each had their own effects. The brighter they were, the better the reward.

Naturally, Chen Li's gaze fell upon the four Easter Eggs with the brightest colors.

Comeback Kid: The next time you descend upon this world, there is a higher chance of appearing directly before a Herrscher.

Pale Justice: Gain one opportunity to designate any living being in the current world for a face-to-face conversation.

Attack Speed Gear: For an extremely short period of time, you can become the god who governs black stockings, but you can only obtain anyone's black stockings.

Infinite Cat Food: You can become the adopter of any cat in the current world, gain feeding rights, and make her actively act cute.

"..."

The facts proved that Easter Eggs really were Easter Eggs.

Even the best Easter Eggs hovered somewhere between useful and useless.

Yet their priority was absurdly high—high to an unbelievable extent.

"Sigh, what kind of choices are these... Hm, wait?"

"Gain one opportunity to designate any living being in the current world for a face-to-face conversation..."

A figure flashed through Chen Li's mind.

No, rather, a god.

Thinking of this, Chen Li decisively chose the second and fourth Easter Eggs.

There was no need to mention the third. Though tempting, it was indeed useless.

If it allowed him to control black stockings, then this Easter Egg would have been a must-pick. After all, black stockings could kill people too. Unfortunately, that was not the case.

Moreover, Easter Eggs could not be used to extract traits, so Chen Li could only reluctantly give it up.

As for the first... it felt like it was not even as good as Chen Li's passive ability that made it extremely easy for him to get dragged into trouble.

The second was the most important. As for the fourth... its range of selection was not limited to cats from the Honkai Impact 3rd world.

Holding the Crystal Ball formed from the second Easter Egg, Chen Li crushed it firmly and immediately chose to use it.

Please select a living being.

"Aeon of Abundance—Yaoshi!"

After using the Easter Egg, Chen Li spoke the name. In the very next instant, he was pulled out of the strange space.

Countless bizarre and fantastical scenes appeared before Chen Li, and his wish was fulfilled at that moment—endless radiance filled his vision.

A magnificent figure beyond description entered Chen Li's sight.

You're Xianzhou's Most Ancient Medicine Seeker? Where the Hell Did This Send Me?

Aeon of Abundance—Yaoshi.

The Nurturer of All Beings, the god of paradise, devoted to making life flourish without decline. An Aeon who never refused prayers and could not bear to witness decay or illness.

May all sentient beings receive all that they seek!

She wore gauze-like robes, jade-like antlers upon her head, and possessed six arms. Tens of thousands of crimson eyes covered her body, while thorns coiled around her limbs. Her gentle face bore a benevolent smile, and her exquisite figure carried an eerie beauty.

Simply by standing there quietly, she became everything in everyone's eyes.

Covered in a hazy, dark-blue layer of Miracle Fire, Chen Li looked up at the being before him.

This layer of flame was the protection granted when using an Easter Egg. It was better than nothing, capable only of preventing Chen Li from suffering mental influence because of it.

"Hm? Another expert?" After recovering from his daze, Chen Li glanced at the person kneeling before the Aeon of Abundance, holding an indistinct spiritual object in both hands.

"Hey, brother. I don't know whether to call you afraid of death or fearless, daring to seek a blessing from Abundance. Where are you from?" Chen Li greeted him very amicably.

This person might become a future customer.

There was nothing to regret about immortality, but once the other party reached the Mara-Struck stage, they would surely search everywhere for a solution.

Moreover, the spiritual object in the other party's hands, obscured by white light, made Chen Li dizzy with fascination.

Chen Li did not even need to touch it to know that it definitely possessed many precious traits.

Yet the trait-light on the Aeon of Abundance herself was even more dazzling than that of the spiritual object in the other party's hands.

Even though it was extremely hazy and the specific traits could not be seen clearly, it still shone brilliantly.

"...Xianzhou." The person across from him admired this man who had spoken so irreverently before the Aeon of Abundance. But under the enormous psychological pressure of facing divine might, he could only force those two words out through clenched teeth.

"???"

That one sentence completely confused Chen Li.

Where were you from?

Xianzhou?

"The Xianzhou Alliance?" Chen Li continued asking.

"Alliance? I suppose so." The other party answered with great difficulty.

"..."

Chen Li understood. This point in time truly seemed to be countless years before Jingliu's era.

Because the Xianzhou Alliance had not even been established yet.

The Xianzhou Alliance did not refer to several Xianzhou ships joining together, because they had always been one entity. The Xianzhou Alliance referred to an alliance between Xianzhou natives, Foxians, and the Dragon race.

And the person before Chen Li should be Xianzhou's most ancient Medicine Seeker.

Chen Li was utterly shaken.

Chen Li could not help but wonder: if he summoned Jingliu before the Aeon of Abundance, would Jingliu slash the Aeon of Abundance first, or this person first?

And was the point in time he had appeared in somewhat wrong?

Or was it actually abnormal that he could summon Argenti and Jingliu in the Previous Civilization of Honkai?

If he killed this Medicine Seeker now, would the Xianzhou Alliance fail to form? How many Starstones could he obtain?

But would that count as a miracle? Would it lead to the destruction of the world?

Chen Li looked at the Medicine Seeker's ecstatic face, then at the mysterious Aeon of Abundance before him, and shook those unreliable thoughts out of his mind.

Killing someone in front of the Aeon of Abundance was a little too fanciful.

For all he knew, the moment he killed the man, Yaoshi would revive him.

Besides, killing the Medicine Seeker would not solve Xianzhou's fundamental problem.

Only after experiencing the disaster of immortality would Xianzhou natives understand that immortality was a major problem.

"I'm a Miraculous Forger who travels across worlds. My name is Chen Li. Perhaps we'll have another chance to meet countless years from now. Since this is our first meeting, I'll give you a gift as a memento." Chen Li tossed a Starstone toward the Medicine Seeker, who was infinitely delighted to have obtained an immortal body.

"...All right." Looking at the dazzling and gorgeous purple gemstone, the other party nodded.

"One more thing—take my advice. For a long-lived race, family planning is very necessary." Chen Li patted the other party on the shoulder and said nothing more.

This time, Chen Li only gained 10 Starstones. Better than nothing. It meant that the other party had not taken his words to heart.

Or perhaps he had listened, but failed to act on them.

Some problems could only be deeply understood after experiencing them personally.

Fearing that delays might bring complications, Chen Li began seeking a blessing from the Aeon of Abundance in order to achieve his goal.

"Great Aeon of Abundance, please grant me endless Abundance Divine Power."
