The "Cutesy Mode" Is Go!

But how can someone be called a genius if they have the tools but don't use them?

Just like having a gun but not using martial arts skills, how can one be considered a grandmaster?

"I did tell you that chatting with other members in the Miraculous Item group is beneficial, but you shouldn't try to learn everything. What I meant by 'not right' is that you're digesting this power too smoothly, to the point that..."

"So much so that what?"

"I've become the Emissary of Equilibrium?"

"Huh? Are you alright? Did your brain get fried? Do you want me to kill you right now and then watch 30 minutes of commercials to revive yourself?" Great Herta said worriedly.

"I'm not kidding, it seems I really have become the Emissary of Equilibrium."

"... Are you sure?"

"I'm sure."

"So Chen Li, your Gourmet Cells is this strong? The more Aeon parts you devour, the more you can surpass the Aeon's authority and mobilize the power of Path to become Emanator? How about I borrow it?" The Great Herta's eyes lit up.

The reason the Great Herta said this is because the power of the Emanator should not be something that can be obtained after devouring the Aeon.

Although no one has ever been able to do this before, and probably no one will be able to do it in the future, the power of the Emanator is actually more like a qualification or authority.

When the Aeon of Path is not in charge, the further you go on this path, the more likely you are to become Emanator.

However, if the Aeon of this Path has not fallen and is still in charge, then who becomes the Emanator is up to the Aeon.

The Aeon grants the Emanator authority, Emanator to draw upon the power of Path...

"You're overthinking it. Neither the Gourmet Cells nor the God of Gluttony Miracle Card will allow me to become Emanator after consuming a part of the Aeon," Chen Li shook his head.

Consuming the Aeon with Gourmet Cells will grant Chen Li a large number of Attribute Points and resistance to the Aeon.

It can even simulate the deliciousness of the Aeon, which is to say, it can mobilize the power of Path just like the Aeon.

The effect of the God of Gluttony is that Chen Li gains some of the characteristics of the Aeon...

Both of these could make Chen Li a being similar to Aeon Emanator, but not Emanator.

In other words...

"So, you forged this Miraculous Item, Equilibrium Aeon not only didn't want to kill you, but also rewarded you with the authority of an Emissary of Equilibrium?" The Great Herta n't understand, but it was greatly shocked.

True tipping

Those who can withstand the pressure will be rewarded; those who cannot will be punished.

"Equilibrium exists between all things." That sticky whisper rang in Chen Li's ears again.

"I am maintaining the Equilibrium, and you are disrupting the Equilibrium, which is also a kind of Equilibrium."

"Although your actions have repeatedly disrupted the Equilibrium, I observe that you are still striving to curb the disorder, hoping to guide the world toward good and avert its destruction. Therefore, let us observe your extreme."

The first sentence proved his identity, the second sentence answered Chen Li's "question", and the third sentence explained his purpose.

"Wait a minute? What does He mean?" When Chen Li heard the Equilibrium Aeon fall silent after saying those three sentences, he was even more confused about what the Equilibrium Aeon was going to do.

In layman's terms: Although your actions have been disrupting the Equilibrium, I can see that you are also trying to curb further Equilibrium and guide the universe in a positive direction without being Destruction by the disruption of the Equilibrium. Let me see your limits then.

"???" Chen Li tilted his head.

Theoretically speaking, the Equilibrium Aeon is right.

Chen Li's creation of Miraculous Item was itself a disruption of the Equilibrium maintained by the Equilibrium Aeon. However, Chen Li simply felt that this Equilibrium Taiyi as the Equilibrium he had imagined, so he made a slight alteration.

The operating logic of the precursor to the Miracle System in the Miraculous Forging Guide was to Deliverance.

After receiving the final gift, Chen Li was not asked to sacrifice himself to Deliverance, but at least Chen Li would not Destruction it.

Therefore, when Chen Li was creating the Miraculous Item, he had to consider both the effectiveness of the Miraculous Item and the fact that Miraculous Item appearance would not cause chaos in the world and lead to its Destruction.

Otherwise, if Chen Li creates the Revival Match Miraculous Item and then uses memes to have everyone forward this link without any approval, approving all resurrection applications, the Honkai: Star Rail world will be doomed in less than three years.

"But the problem is... I can't be a referee. Equilibrium Aeon, I can't live without you, Equilibrium Aeon... Can we talk about this again? Don't go!"

Chen Li wasn't joking when he said he highly respected the Equilibrium Aeon; Chen Li was serious.

Because if the worlds the Miracle System had visited previously contained beings like the Equilibrium Aeon, it wouldn't have had to Destruction countless worlds and become World Destroyer.

Chen Li had no intention of Destruction the world; Chen Li simply wanted to pursue another kind of Equilibrium —that those who do good will be rewarded with blessings, and those who do evil will be punished by heaven.

To create more positive Miracles without bringing the world to the brink of Destruction.

"What do we do now?" Chen Li turned to look at the Great Herta.

"What do you mean, what to do?"

"I've become the Emissary of Equilibrium, is that reasonable?"

"Hmm... Theoretically speaking, it doesn't make sense, but as an outsider, didn't you come to this world to break the rules?"

"When did I say I came into this world to break the rules? Didn't I come here to create Miracles?"

"That's right, the one who disrupted the Equilibrium became the Emissary of Equilibrium, isn't that Miracle?" The Great Herta clapped his hands and said directly.

"..."

"Alright, it's just an Emanator, isn't it? Let's take a look at the specific effects of this Miraculous Item artifact that could anger the Equilibrium Aeon to the point of punching you. By the way, what's the name of this Miraculous Item?" Herta asked curiously.

"...[Moe Ying Body]."

"What kind of weird name is that?"

Chapter 198 [Moe Ying Body], Activated!

"You mean this heart-shaped pendant, which looks like it's made of pink Crystal, is an item with effects comparable to the Revival Match that can revive Aeon, Gourmet Cells that even Aeon can eat, or One-star Artifact Aeon in Friends Circle?" The Great Herta stroked his chin, looking at the pink pendant in Chen Li's hand in disbelief.

It looks nice, but I don't see any particularly amazing effects.

Although both the Friends Circle and the Revival Match seemed rather unremarkable...

"That's right." Chen Li nodded.

"Can this little thing be used to suppress Mara-Struck?"

"That's right, and it's not just the Mara-Struck." Chen Li nodded.

[Moe Ying Body] (One Star): Silly, silly, silly, silly!

"How do you use this? Who should you use it on? What are the effects? What are the side effects?" The curious Great Herta kept asking questions.

"Well... how about we find a Long-Life Species to conduct the experiment on the spot?" Chen Li said, glancing at the Great Herta.

"What... what do you want to do? Let me tell you, I'm not Long-Life Species, I can only reverse aging... Although I can live forever now, I don't have any psychological problems, nor do I have Mara-Struck." The Great Herta, which was being targeted by Chen Li, subconsciously took a step back.

The Great Herta enjoys studying Miraculous Item, but Great Herta is clearly unwilling to be the first person to have Miraculous Item used.

"Then... Ruan Mei?" Chen Li suggested.

"What? You actually dared to spout such nonsense in front of me, saying you'd use Ruan Mei for experiments. Don't you know she's my brother, my dearest friend, and my most beloved business partner?" The Great Herta frowned.

"I can give you the Miraculous Item so that you may use it."

"Deal." The Great Herta snapped its fingers immediately.

"Don't be so quick to refuse. After all, we're doing this for Ruan Mei's own good... Alright, never mind. You can invite Ruan Mei now." Chen Li, who hadn't expected the Great Herta to betray them so quickly, said.

"I'll invite you, I'll invite you." Great Herta immediately picked up his Friends Circle Terminal and sent a message.

"Then I'll wait and see."

Although Jingliu, who is already on the verge of Mara possession, would be a more suitable test subject, according to the itinerary, Jingliu should currently be with Baiheng, planning to go find Jing Yuan and give Jing Yuan a big surprise...

Chen Li didn't want to betray Baiheng's Sincere Heart for Jing Yuan.

Although Chen Li felt more like he was being frightened.

Moreover, this Miraculous Item has extraordinary effects on Long-Life Species; it can cure diseases for the sick and prevent diseases for the healthy.

You won't lose out, you won't be cheated!

After receiving the message from the Great Herta, Ruan Mei quickly used her Friends Circle Terminal to send the message to the vicinity of the Great Herta.

Although Ruan Mei had already used teleportation once today, exhausting all her chat history, the Great Herta specially provided Ruan Mei with a few Starstones as a teleportation fee.

"I never expected that among the people I know, the most recent one to become Emanator would be you, and even Emissary of Equilibrium?" Ruan Mei cast a surprised look at Chen Li as soon as she appeared.

Chen Li, who owns all the Friends Circle, can clearly see that the reason the Great Herta invited Ruan Mei to the Herta Space Station is: Chen Li, the one who disrupted the Equilibrium, actually became the Emissary of Equilibrium because of disrupting the Equilibrium. Let's investigate him together!

"The Equilibrium Aeon maintains Equilibrium, while I disrupt Equilibrium. Isn't that also a kind of Equilibrium? Moreover, my goal is similar to that of the Equilibrium Aeon —to maintain the operation of the universe. He doesn't want the universe to Destruction, and neither do I." Chen Li shrugged.

Chen Li didn't want to needlessly add another point to his record of Destruction the world.

"Then let's begin the study." Nguyen Mai nodded toward the Great Herta.

Ruan Mei believes that Chen Li, the Emissary of Equilibrium indeed of great research value.

Moreover, witnessing friends become Emissary of Equilibrium and collect data related to the Equilibrium Aeon is indeed beneficial to the research and development of the Simulated Universe project.

"Then let's begin the research." The Great Herta nodded to Chen Li.

"Let's begin the study." Chen Li nodded to Ruan Mei and then handed the pink heart-shaped ornament to the Great Herta.

"How am I supposed to use this thing?" Only after he got his hands on the Miraculous Item did the Great Herta remember this question.

"Shout out these three words... No, these three words can neither be spoken nor written." Chen Li suddenly felt a little confused.

Because once Chen Li utters these three words, the Miraculous Item will be activated, and it will not be considered that the Great Herta has used the Miraculous Item.

"What three words? What are you talking about?" Ruan Mei looked at Chen Li and Great Herta, sensing that something was amiss.

"Repeat the first character of 'cherry blossom' three times." Chen Li did not explain to Ruan Mei, but said to the Herta.

"Waaah?" The Great Herta tilted its head.

As the Great Herta three words, the heart-shaped pendant in his hand suddenly shone brightly, as if a bright yet gentle sun was rising in his hand.

The light pierced through the human body, through the deck, and through the material, yet left no trace and caused no injury.

This strange phenomenon spread extremely widely, instantly reaching the entire Herta Space Station.

Strangely, when this pink light spread throughout the Herta Space Station and was about to fly towards the nearby Azure Star, the light abruptly stopped after extending a certain distance, making the entire Herta Space Station seem to be enveloped by a huge pink sphere of light.

"Thud!" The crisp sound of the object hitting the ground rang out.

When the light disappeared, Chen Li unsurprisingly picked up the pink heart-shaped ornament from the ground and looked up at his two "friends".

"Waaaaah?"

"Waaaaah?"

What appeared before Chen Li was a cute little girl who was just over a meter tall, with a unique style that was delightful to behold.

Their current appearance is instantly recognizable as Nguyen Mai and Great Herta, and their clothing has changed as their bodies have shrunk.

But what's most eye-catching is that both of the little cuties are carrying a basket, and from Chen Li's perspective, you can see that it's filled with snacks that are very much in line with their personal styles.

Herta's little basket contained candy, while Nguyen Mai's little basket contained packaged pastries.

The next moment, Xiao Great Herta and Xiao Ruan Mei did the same thing: they reached into the basket, took out their snacks, and handed them to Chen Li.

"Thank you." After taking the snacks, Chen Li patted the Great Herta's head, and then patted Ruan Mei's head.

The Great Herta did not resist Chen Li's actions. Although Ruan Mei had some resistance to Chen Li's actions, it was not strong, and Chen Li eventually succeeded in touching her.

It perfectly matches the characteristics of the Miraculous Item that Chen Li observed: although people were turned into whimpering monsters, the concept of "relationships" was preserved.

"Waaah!"

"Waaah!"

After Chen Li accepted their snacks, it was clear that the two little cuties were very happy, and then they started exchanging snacks.

However, after receiving each other's snacks, they did not put the snacks into their baskets, but instead put them into other pockets.

"Aww!" The two adorable creatures cheered again after distributing the snacks and started running towards other areas of the space station.

Chen Li followed behind the two, observing them.

After the two little ones skillfully navigated the elevators and automatic doors to reach the other half of the Herta Space Station, Chen Li could see that there were also many researchers who had transformed into adorable little creatures within the Herta Space Station.

These adorable little creatures are also distributing the snacks from their baskets.

The researchers around them, who hadn't turned into these adorable little creatures, didn't give them any strange looks. Instead, they accepted the snacks and continued their work as if nothing was wrong.
