Chapter 230
"Um... I've collected all the game entries. I'm going to forge this Miraculous Item now. Goodbye. hiccup" Chen Li said goodbye.
Having witnessed the achievement of the perfect ending and successfully obtained the [Game: Life] entry, Chen Li had no reason to stay here any longer.
"I'm going to find someone to play games with now, goodbye." Tet, having received the Star Cup, also chose to take his leave.
"Hmm, why are you all leaving? Stay a little longer..."
Riku discovered the blind spot.
"Don't try to drag me into your own troubles. Hiccup."
"Hey, Chen Li, can't you think of a way to handle this? Aren't you supposed to be an all-powerful Miraculous Forger? Hey, don't walk so fast! I even helped you earn so much Miracle Power, you heartless bastard!" Riku cursed as he watched Chen Li's figure disappear in an instant.
When Riku turned around and discovered that Tet had also disappeared, he was even more at a loss for what to do.
"Oh, right, there's one more thing... hiccup." Chen Li suddenly came back.
"What's up?"
"Tet, I know you're still watching. Do me a favor... If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes. Help me get a few War God feathers. Then send them to me via red envelope." After saying that, Chen Li took his leave.
With the Friends Circle Terminal, Chen Li's escape became even smoother.
"That Miraculous Item... never mind." Riku covered his forehead after realizing that Chen Li had disappeared.
For a moment, Riku really felt that he would rather have died in front of the Star Cup.
Chen Li stayed in the world of Game Life for a long time. By the time Chen Li returned to Raiden Mei's home in the Current Civilization, night had already fallen.
The once bustling living room, which was filled with the most important characters in the entire Honkai world, has become cold and deserted.
Everyone went back to their own homes and to their own mothers.
"Emmm... um." Chen Li suddenly realized that he seemed to have gone to the wrong house.
"It's already this late? Hiccup." Chen Li glanced at the time in the living room.
It is 1 a. m. now.
"I should go home and wait for the Heaven's Lost Property tomorrow morning. Hiccup."
Originally, Chen Li should have had some late-night snacks by now, but even after seeing the large amount of feathers that Tet had just sent him via his Friends Circle Terminal, which were supposedly plucked from the God of War, and the mountain of Winged Race feathers that Gibril had personally plucked from other Winged Race, Chen Li had no appetite at all.
One-star Artifact is defined as Miraculous Item that has a probability of being able to fight against the world. However, taking a bite of the Star Cup and, by virtue of the Star Cup's omniscience and omnipotence, also taking a bite of the world, is still somewhat of a burden for the Gourmet Cells.
"Who's there?" The voices of others echoed in the living room, which was so dark that only the starlight outside could reveal vague outlines.
"Raiden Mei?" Chen Li's eyes were not affected by the darkness, but he only noticed Chen Li Raiden Mei sitting on the sofa with her back to him after she Raiden Mei.
"Why aren't you asleep yet? hiccup" Chen Li asked, somewhat puzzled.
"I've had so much going on today that I can't sleep. But you, are you alright?" Raiden Mei asked.
At the same time, Raiden Mei also noticed that Chen Li kept hiccuping.
"I'm just a little too full, but why don't you turn on the light?"
"Perhaps it's a habit I developed during the time my father was taken away. I prefer being in the dark living room to the cramped room," Raiden Mei explained.
Only at this time does Raiden Mei feel the loneliness and darkness accompanying her, and only then can she feel peace.
"Then you can give up this habit now. Although I had something to do this afternoon, which delayed the three alliances, once the Schicksal and Anti-Entropy World Serpent Alliances are over, Raiden Ryoma's reputation will be restored. You should be able to return to a normal life... hiccup."
"No, you might have misunderstood. I used to stay in the living room because I felt lonely. But now... you'll probably laugh at me if I tell you, but I feel that being alone in the dark is really wonderful." Raiden Mei knelt on the sofa and turned to look at Chen Li.
In the darkness, only Raiden Mei's purple eyes stood out brightly in the night.
Purple lightning surged, making his eyes look like beautiful purple gemstones.
"Your eyes..."
"You noticed it too, didn't you? It seems that the Herrscher of Thunder had some complaints about how we tied her up, but she couldn't affect me, so she could only affect my eyes, which made my eyes look very beautiful in the dark." Raiden Mei's voice was tinged with excitement.
"..." Chen Li roughly understood.
Having become the Herrscher of Thunder, she treated everyone present as if they were just random people on the street. Then, she put on a cool show in front of the teachers and students who had previously used cold violence and criticized her, so much so that Raiden Mei is still incredibly energetic and can't sleep at all.
In addition, due to the dissatisfaction of the Herrscher of Thunder, Raiden Mei's eyes became ridiculously handsome in the dark, so Raiden Mei ran away to stay in the dark living room.
Why does it have to be in the living room? Because that way we can randomly pick a lucky person and stun them!
Chen Li could only comment on this as... "human nature".
"Very beautiful eyes. hiccup"
"Thank you for the compliment."
"Am I the first person to praise someone like that?"
"The third one." Raiden Mei's voice carried a hint of pride.
Raiden Mei's house is packed with people today; the entire villa is full.
Kiana, Z Siegfried, Durandal, Sirin, Raiden Ryoma, Houraisan Kaguya...
Aside from the students, most of Chen Li's group members did not go home. However, because Raiden Mei's house had a limited number of rooms, most of the group members were arranged to stay on the Hyperion near Raiden Mei's house.
Chen Li felt as if he had unintentionally led Raiden Mei astray.
Could it be that her chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) relapsed because she said things like she had the potential to Deliverance, Herrscher of the Dark, or was the Queen of Raiden Mei?
"Chen Li, thank you," Raiden Mei suddenly said.
"Hmm, why are you thanking me so abruptly?" Chen Li was taken aback.
"Because I learned about the future plot from Sirin during the day." Raiden Mei stood up from the sofa and walked to Chen Li. Raiden Mei also learned about the hardships that would follow and the impact that the 3rd Honkai would have on Changkong City.
Although it was the damned Cocolia who detonated the Honkai energy around Changkong City, intending to artificially create Honkai, it is easy for kind-hearted people to blame themselves for the mistake.
For example What If I weren't in Changkong City, would I not have brought a Destruction disaster to the 3 million people in Changkong City?
Will the Herrscher of Thunder's loss of control bring fatal danger to those around her and even the entire world?
With the Resurrection Card given to her by Chen Li, Raiden Mei saw hope of seeing her mother again.
Therefore, Raiden Mei is truly grateful to Chen Li.
As Raiden Mei approached, Raiden Mei purple eyes shone even brighter in the darkness upon closer inspection.
Then Raiden Mei turned her head away.
While being complimented on her handsome eyes makes Raiden Mei, she also feels embarrassed when a man of similar age with whom she has a slight crush stares into her eyes.
"By the way, Chen Li, you don't have a place to stay yet, do you?" Raiden Mei suddenly asked, as if she had just thought of something.
"I can go home."
"My father has already arranged a room for you. Would you like me to take you there?"
Chen Li can stay in this room, but the Raiden Ryoma cannot be left out.
"Come on, I'll take you there." Before Chen Li could agree or refuse, Raiden Mei grabbed Chen Li's wrist and headed towards the guest room.
Raiden Mei was so enthusiastic that Chen Li found it difficult to refuse.
"By the way, the Herrscher of Thunder said she wants to meet you. Do you agree?" Raiden Mei asked as they walked down the street.
"You two made up? Hiccup." Chen Li asked curiously.
"More or less. Seele, who's next to Bronya, also seems to be Stigmata user. With Seele's help, I've already spoken with the Herrscher of Thunder. Since she's my Stigmata consciousness and hasn't intended to harm me, we can naturally try to get along peacefully."
"What does the Herrscher of Thunder want to talk to me about?" Chen Li asked curiously.
"I don't know." Raiden Mei shook her head.
"Fine, call her out. Or do you want me to enter you?"
"It's good that she's out." Raiden Mei paused after saying that.
They had now arrived at the guest room that Raiden Ryoma had prepared for Chen Li.
As Raiden Mei faced Chen Li directly and blinked, Raiden Mei expression instantly changed.
"Herrscher of Thunder, it's been a long time. I've missed you terribly. hiccup" A smile instantly appeared on Chen Li's face.
The relationship between Chen Li and the Herrscher of Thunder cannot be described as dramatic; it is, in fact, extremely dramatic.
One moment she was saying, "Your Queen, I am your servant," and the next moment a Tai Xu Sword God appeared, shoving the Herrscher of Thunder back into the Herrscher consciousness space.
"Don't be so nervous, I'm here to thank you." The Herrscher of Thunder's smile widened when she saw how nervous Chen Li was.
"Thank me?"
"Yes. I've heard from others that your Tai Xu Sword God was meant to sever my connection with the Honkai Consciousness, right? I am Herrscher, but that doesn't mean I have to obey the Honkai Consciousness."
My not refusing does not mean I agree.
Although the Herrscher of Thunder's power comes from Honkai, it does not mean that the Herrscher of Thunder should become a puppet of Honkai.
I've heard that in the Previous Civilization, all Herrschers had no choice; they would be controlled by the Honkai and forced to Destruction the world.
In the Current Civilization, Herrscher already have the right to choose.
The choice is whether to stand on the side of humanity.
And all of this is thanks to that Herrscher of the Human.
If that's the case... if I don't betray the Honkai, then wouldn't the Herrscher of the Human's sacrifice have been in vain?
"That's right, so you don't mind Wojian calling you Your Queen when I see you?" Chen Li was somewhat surprised by the Herrscher of Thunder's magnanimity.
"I don't mind." The Herrscher of Thunder's smile froze for a moment before she shook her head.
"You don't mind if I use the Tai Xu Sword God to send you back to the consciousness space?"
"I don't mind." The smile on the Herrscher of Thunder's face gradually faded.
"You wouldn't mind if I brought Raiden Mei along and beat you up in the consciousness space?"
"... I don't mind." The smile on the Herrscher of Thunder's face vanished completely.
"You don't mind me having Raiden Mei tie you up with rope? Hiccup."
"... I don't mind." The Herrscher of Thunder's smile reappeared.
"Come on, let's shake hands, it means we've put aside our past grievances." The Herrscher of Thunder extended her hand, which was crackling with lightning.
Chen Li didn't care about the lightning, since he was immune to lightning damage.
Moreover, it's normal for the Herrscher of Thunder to have some minor emotional outbursts.
So Chen Li also extended his hand.
But just as their hands were about to clasp together, the Herrscher of Thunder suddenly grabbed Chen Li's wrist and then placed Chen Li's hand in front of her chest.
"Hmm?" Chen Li was taken aback when he felt the full, soft flesh in his hand.
What happened?
Giving away freebies?
"No..." the Herrscher of Thunder suddenly shouted.
The Herrscher of Thunder's words were barely out of her mouth when Chen Li covered her mouth.
"Indecent assault!" Chen Li suddenly shouted.
"???" The Herrscher of Thunder, whose mouth was covered by Chen Li, was stunned for a moment.
Reversing the Heavenly Gang!
I molested you?
Okay, even if I did molest you, seeing the current situation, who would believe you?
The Herrscher of Thunder originally intended to have a good talk with Chen Li, but she was angered by Chen Li's words, so she decided to give Chen Li a little Herrscher of Thunder!
This is how you should deal with scumbags who call every Herrscher "Your Queen"!
"What? What? What happened?" The door to the room next to Chen Li's room suddenly opened, Kiana appeared.
"The Herrscher of Thunder assaulted me. She used Mei's body to assault me. Perhaps it was because she couldn't have me, so she wanted to force herself on me. And she even made me call her Queen." Chen Li was on the verge of tears.
"???" Looking at Chen Li, who was clutching Raiden Mei's right breast, and Raiden Mei, whose hand was gripping Chen Li's wrist and whose behavior seemed abnormal, Kiana's intuition told Kiana...
Chen Li must be right!
