Sparkle: What Do You Mean, Herta's Just the Referee, and My Real Opponent Is an Aeon?

"Is it going to work? Aren't you afraid that Mobius will cause some trouble with this snake?"

"It's not a big problem. Mobius has Miraculous Item that can subdue this snake," Chen Li said.

The biggest problem with the World Destroyer Seed that refreshes Chen Li's room every day is that it cannot be easily destroyed. Just like this gluttonous snake, even Chen Li, who is not proficient in Sealing Techniques, could seal it before it developed. But the seal will eventually break.

As long as this gluttonous snake's immortal "golden body" cannot be broken, it will eventually Destruction the world.

Because the snake, which can regenerate, has countless chances to start over, while the "world" only has one chance.

But as long as Mobius makes a cut on this gluttonous snake with a scalpel, the snake will remain in a state of being operated on and unable to grow until Mobius completes the surgery.

"So that's how it was solved?" Sirin was greatly shocked.

"Functional Miraculous Item are like this: although they don't have extreme numerical values, they have extreme mechanisms."

"What about the Judgment of All Things?" Sirin asked.

"A simple, user-friendly game console," Chen Li said quite bluntly.

If Mobius uses her scalpel to play a game called "Life" at the real difficulty level, then the wielder of the Judgment of All Things is playing at the story difficulty level.

As long as you don't cut yourself with the Judgment of All Things, you'll be able to pass the game sooner or later.

"Ahem, speaking of which, why hasn't Kaguya come down yet? Should I go and call her down for breakfast?"

"Forget it. Houraisan Kaguya came to my house for refuge because she didn't want to get up early. Now that she's here, she's being woken up every morning. She might as well go back to Eientei," Chen Li said.

Because Houraisan Kaguya moved out of the room directly above Chen Li, she was surprisingly not woken up by the falling objects this morning.

"Chen Li, when are you going to forge me a Miraculous Item?" Little Herta asked, raising his hand.

"To forge Miraculous Item for you?"

"I will pay the corresponding compensation."

"No, it's not about the reward. It's about what you need the Miraculous Item for, or what type of Miraculous Item you want?" Ever since seeing how Mobius made such a splash with beginner Miraculous Item, Chen Li has become more selective about who uses Miraculous Item.

"I think I might need a Miraculous Item that can transform me into Magical Girl," Little Herta said.

"Huh? Weren't you trying to guarantee your uniqueness? Why are you starting to imitate the Great Herta?"

"No, no, no, I'm not like those old magical grandmothers from the Great Herta. The Magical Girl I want is an imaginary Magical Girl. I want you to create a Miraculous Item using the keywords [imaginary number] and [Magical Girl]."

"..."

"Because I was thinking, since the Aeon is a being that has mastered a portion of Imaginary Energy, could I obtain some Imaginary Energy from the Imaginary Tree Energy and directly become the Herta Aeon? I think I can do it," said the Little Herta.

Chen Li glanced at the Little Herta, then at the newly generated commission.

[The Witch of Imaginary Numbers]: Create a Magical Girl Transformation Device for the Little Herta that can make her the spokesperson for the Imaginary Tree.

Posted by: Little Herta

Reward: 30-150 Crystals.

Risk: Low to extremely high.

"Honey, this is such a dangerous toy, let's not play with it, okay?" Chen Li advised.

This commission has the largest difference between the minimum and maximum Crystal rewards that Chen Li has ever seen.

If the Miraculous Item Chen Li crafted could receive the top reward... then Chen Li would believe that this Miraculous Item could make the Little Herta hold the sun and moon Aeon.

In fact, Chen Li had thought of this plan before, but Chen Li rejected it.

Because the cost is too high.

Moreover, it only applies to worlds that have Imaginary Trees.

It is not a suitable commission due to its high cost and narrow applicability.

"Seeing your expression puts my mind at ease. It means my idea is indeed feasible." Little Herta wasn't disappointed by Chen Li's tactful rejection; instead, it became even more excited.

What do you want to do?

"Chen Li, when you eat Aeon in the future, could you take a piece of their divine body out of your mouth and give it to me? I'm thinking that What If I collect a part of all the Aeon in this world, could I generate a small Honkai: Star Rail Universe in my body, connect it to the Imaginary Tree, and make it mistake me for an imaginary world, and then provide me with Imaginary Energy?" The Little Herta shared its idea.

Little Herta pondered that the most representative element of the Honkai: Star Rail world was the Aeon, so it could be said that this was an Aeon world.

If you take a part from the Aeon and put it on yourself, can you create a small Aeon world?

It's like taking a small portion from each part of a pond and putting it into an aquarium to create a simple miniature pond.

Once the basic infrastructure is in place, the permits can be dealt with later.

Of course, Little Herta also knows that the Aeon is not the entirety of the Honkai: Star Rail world, but isn't Little Herta trying to hypnotize himself?

Machine Soul, show Wojian your limits!

"... You really dare to think that way. But some of the Aeon have already fallen."

Chen Li discovered that these geniuses all had remarkably clear thought processes. They always liked to exploit the bugs in the world, but their behavior was justified because of the conditions they possessed.

"Then let them win the Revival Match. Or there's another way, why don't you become a full-fledged Pathstrider? The Aeon are dead, but Path is still there. When they glance at you, you can just eat their glances, right? Or you can just go and gnaw on Path directly."

"Then spit it into your mouth?"

"Ugh, that sounds disgusting. But if it's for becoming a god... it's not entirely unacceptable." The Little Herta looked reluctant.

"Achieving the full Path... is a bit difficult, but I will try my best."

That's true, but some people's Path are very strange.

For example, Propagation...

"Thank you, Brother Chen Li," Little Herta said in a high-pitched voice.

"Ugh!" Sirin, who was standing next to her, felt a chill.

There's no tomorrow for a dead clamp!

"If Brother Chen Li can't create Magical Girl Miraculous Item right now, could you forge a hypnotic Miraculous Item?" Little Herta pressed his advantage.

"A hypnotic Miraculous Item... that sounds a bit unorthodox, but let me ask you this first: what do you want to do with it?"

"Hypnotize myself."

"You're going to hypnotize the Great Herta?"

"No, it's myself. Since you said the energy of the Machine Soul Doll wouldn't exceed its belief, then I can just use a hypnotic tool to strengthen my belief, right?" Little Herta said.

"..."

If Huo Linfei had had the Miraculous Item you wanted back then, let alone 7 days, he might have been able to get Xuehuang to put her hair up in 3 days!

"Go ask Great Herta for the payment, she'll reimburse you. I've already spoken to Great Herta," Little Herta said.

"Alright, but I'm giving you a heads-up: don't misuse this Miraculous Item, or I'll hang you up in the Black Space Station and whip you for three days and three nights!"

"I understand, I'm not stupid."

"There's one more thing: the negative effects of Miraculous Item held by others are very difficult to apply to Miraculous Forger."

"Why are you telling me this? I really can't hypnotize you. You should tell her." The Little Herta looked somewhat innocent, then looked at Sirin.

"What does this have to do with me? I, I would never hypnotize or anything like that!" Sirin was furious at the Little Herta's slander.

"Look, she's getting anxious." Little Herta clenched his fist and pointed at Sirin with his thumb.

"Little Herta!"

"Sigh, joke around as you please, but don't pull out the Judgment of All Things! Chen Li, good luck, try your best to collect all the Destiny Chart illustrations. If you get stuck anywhere, come find me, I'll help you! Including the Path of Propagation ~"

"Little Herta, I'm going to kill you!" Sirin was even more furious!

"Ha, help me? You'd better save your own life first."

However, Chen Li was more interested in the reward that the Little Herta mentioned.

You can just ask the Great Herta for it, right?

[Old Man]: Great Herta, I need to discuss something. Little Herta wants me to forge a hypnotic Miraculous Item for her; she can ask you for payment directly.

[The Great Herta]: That's right, for someone like her who possesses the power of a machine soul, hypnotic Miraculous Item can better help her become stronger.

For example, using a hypnotic Miraculous Item to hypnotize Little Herta and make her manually assemble a curvature engine within three minutes might actually work.

The Great Herta was also eager to see the limits of the Machine Soul.

[Dad]: I don't need any reward or anything. Anyway, your current collection of Miraculous Items is all what I didn't have.

[The Great Herta]: What are you talking about? You've only picked through the Miraculous Item from the Herta Space Station, how do you know I haven't collected anything else? Wait until the Astral Express brings me some good stuff, then I'll definitely show it off to you first!

[Dad]: Yes, yes, so... I need you to do me a favor.

Chapter 222 Sparkle: What is the Herta? You are just the referee, my opponent is another god?

"Is this the key Miraculous Item that can invite any being, even the Aeon?" Sparkle looked at the bronze key covered in cracks in her hand with suspicion.

"That's right." Chen Li, wearing Golden Honkai-Moe King coat and a crown, nodded.

"Why do I feel that the strength of this Miraculous Item is on a completely different level from the Miraculous Item you forged for me yesterday?" Sparkle asked, puzzled.

One is Miraculous Item that can even invite the Aeon, while the other is a wondrous Miraculous Item that can only be found to have fun. Are these two Miraculous Item really made by the same Miraculous Forger?

"Well, you can't say that. It's more accurate to say that different Miraculous Item have different tendencies. I have a friend who can even change the Worldview of an entire world with a beginner Miraculous Item," Chen Li said.

"Then what kind of Miraculous Item is this key?"

"A beginner's Miraculous Item."

Where is my mask?

"Also a beginner's Miraculous Item."

"Hmm, very good, I understand. There are differences between beginner Miraculous Item, right?"

"You could say that."

"So the mask you made for me was also substandard, wasn't it?"

"Absolutely not! You asked me to create a Miraculous Item for you to have fun. I fulfilled your request perfectly. You just have to accept that you were shortchanged because your idea wasn't bold enough," Chen Li said.

"For example?"

"For example, a friend of mine wanted me to forge a Miraculous Item that could slap someone through the internet cable."

"This can be forged?"

"Yes. That's how it works with forging Miraculous Items. You tell me what you want, and I'll consider whether it can be forged." Chen Li nodded.

It's like buying local specialties on an antique street or at a tourist attraction.

Don't be scared off by the high prices above. You should try to bargain first!

You'll find that if you dare to speak up, he dares to sell!

"Rounding down" does not refer to rounding down the amount, but rather to the quantity rounded down.

"... I feel like I've been taken advantage of, but oh well, it's not bad to get a Miraculous Item for some fun." Sparkle sighed.

Although Sparkle hasn't received any reward so far, she still feels somewhat resentful that an opportunity to have even more fun has slipped away.

It's only human nature.

"Want a better Miraculous Item, right? Then try your best to win this arena match! In that Invitation Space, there are many prank items. As long as you can use those prank items to open your opponent's eyes, I can help you strengthen your Miraculous Item." Chen Li saw that Sparkle was unwilling to give up, so he tempted her.

Invitation Space is not just a blank space; it can be customized with different scenes.

For example, you could customize an amusement Paradise scene, within which many interactive NPCs would spawn... Of course, it's 12+, not 18+.

The types of interactive actions are limited; please refrain from making any harassing or disruptive actions.

The Destiny Invitation Key was originally meant for dating, but it has never been able to fulfill its purpose.

"I'm getting more and more curious. Whose amusement are you trying to see?" Sparkle asked.

"Put this key into any door you like, then turn it. As long as you can turn the key and open the door, you'll see your opponent."

"Okay. Please look forward to it!" Sparkle smiled confidently.

Sparkle is Masked Fool; when it comes to having fun, Sparkle is a pro!

Sparkle show that victory is just around the corner!
