Chen Li: The Taste of Kyubey and the Witch's Night... Is Pretty Great!
Absolutely not!
Then... Elysia got beaten up—after Kevin pulled out a pink hammer bigger than Elysia from his pants and hit her on the head, she instantly saw stars.
A real, materialized golden star appeared above Elysia's head.
Looking at Elysia standing there, dizzy, Chen Li hesitated for a moment, then took off the few stars spinning on Elysia's head and put them in his mouth.
The taste was surprisingly good, and it even tasted like Elysia's...
So Chen Li took the opportunity to collect a few more.
"..." Originally, Vill-V also wanted to play with little Kevin as a toy, but when she saw Elysia being used as a human star collector by Chen Li, she quickly raised her hands in surrender, obediently accepted the snacks Kevin distributed, and then dared not touch little Kevin.
"Chen Li, you didn't tell me that this whiny girl would get beaten up if she touched me!" Elysia complained after a while.
"I haven't had a chance to say it yet, have I?"
"Hmm, Chen Li, is that bag of golden stars in your arms also a snack distributed by Kevin? Why is it different from the one in my hand?" Elysia asked curiously as she saw Chen Li stuffing golden stars into his mouth.
Kevin distributed small packets of instant noodles as snacks...
Yes, that fits everyone's preconceived notion of Kevin!
"Want to try some?"
"Try it!... I can't bite it." Out of caution, Elysia only brought the star to her mouth and took a tentative bite. After finding that she really couldn't bite it, she mischievously handed the star, which was covered with a little saliva, to Chen Li expectantly, wanting to see Chen Li's interesting reaction.
Then Elysia saw Chen Li snatch the star from her hand and throw it directly into his mouth.
"Huh? You... why did you just eat it?" This time it was Elysia's turn to be caught off guard, and she got up a little embarrassed.
Everyone's watching!
Cute Elysia looked around, only to find that no one around her was giving her the teasing look she had imagined; in fact, their reactions were rather indifferent.
Has it become a consensus that Chen Li eats everything?
"If you knew what this star was made of, you would understand why everyone's reaction was so lukewarm." Houraisan Kaguya patted Elysia on the shoulder.
Since it was taken from Elysia, does it have Elysia's saliva on it? What difference does it make?
"So what is this star made of?"
"I don't know." Houraisan Kaguya decisively chose not to answer.
Just as Elysia was about to ask more questions, Kevin had distributed countless snacks, returned to his original form.
Kevin before and after shedding Kevin burdens are like two completely different people.
The proof is that Kevin no longer maintains a cold demeanor, but instead reveals a very human side... a grief-stricken expression?
There was no light left in Kevin's eyes.
"Boss Kevin, are you alright?" Pardo, who thought Kevin's Dao Heart was shattered because of her defeat, quickly went up to comfort him.
"Boss Kevin, I'm not the same person I used to be. I now have my own Exclusive Profession, and I have Chen Li tattooed on my back!"
"Really?" Although still immersed in grief, Kevin couldn't help but ask because the news was so shocking.
"Of course it's fake! Okay, happy now? Cheer up! I'm just good at sneak attacks," Pardo encouraged.
[The Beast of Plunder - Empty Dream]
This is Pardo's Exclusive Profession.
[Plunder], [Beast], [Empty Dream]
Although it's only a three-attribute Exclusive Profession, the meanings of the first and third attributes are quite complex, and since both are exclusive attributes, this class has immense potential.
The reason it turned out this way is because Pardo awakened her Stigmata during the Second Civilization Era, and the name of the Stigmata Pardo obtained is... [Pardo Phyllis].
The Second Civilization Era contained records of the First Civilization Era, so Pardo essentially inherited the wealth of the future.
Step on the right foot with the left foot, and you're instantly ascended to heaven!
"I'm not sad because I lost to you... it's just..." Kevin hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.
Although this somewhat hesitant style is not very Kevin's, it is the proper state for Kevin when he has let go of his burdens.
"Just what?"
"Chen Li, I hope you can do me a favor." Kevin looked at Chen Li.
"If it's because they want to erase their past as an idol, then there's no need to say more. Welt has already started to figure out how to handle this."
"... How did you know I wanted to talk about this?"
Ancestor Kevin and the young Kevin are essentially the same person. Even though Ancestor Kevin has become much more resilient, he still seems to have some difficulty accepting the fact that he once debuted in women's clothing.
Kevin was somewhat suspicious of Chen Li Lijian's ability to predict so accurately what Kevin wanted to say.
"Well... let's not keep Mei waiting any longer, it's time to set off." Chen Li decisively changed the subject.
Chen Li already knew that the Moe Ying Body technique could indeed remove the effects of the Easter Egg on Kevin, which is why he told Welt how to do so.
Welt decided to delete all the videos first, so he went to find Sakura and Rin.
Of course, Chen Li would never delete the video he had.
This leverage will allow Chen Li to hold a grudge against Welt and Kevin for life!
Otto? Forget about him. Otto was a master of cross-dressing 500 years ago.
"...Okay." Although Kevin believed there must be some hidden story, Chen Li was right; Mei was more important now.
"Do we really have to do this?" Kevin asked, clinging to the door of the Second God Key with some worry.
"Yeah, yeah, do we really have to do this?" Kiana was clinging to the door on the other side, was even more worried.
Kevin was worried because he found Chen Li's suggestion to shoot him out with the Second God Key somewhat absurd.
Kiana's concern stemmed from the fact that Kiana had actually shot people out of the air before.
The one that was shot out by the Second God Key was knocked away by the Aeon Relic next door, and almost died from the impact.
"There's no other way. This trip isn't just about seeing Mei, but also about bringing back the entire World Bubble where she is. So we need a Herrscher of the Void outside the World Bubble to retrieve it." Chen Li shrugged.
"Then why not let Sirin go?" Kiana asked, pointing at Sirin who was standing at the door.
"You rebellious daughter! Don't you know what it means to respect your elders? And do you have the confidence to precisely control the Second God Key to launch both of you into that World Bubble? Do you even know what formula you need?" Sirin rolled her eyes at Kiana.
"The Pythagorean theorem?" Kiana asked tentatively.
"..." Sirin was so angry that she didn't want to speak.
Is the Pythagorean theorem all you know?!
"Kiana, your Kaslana Family must unite! And don't you think it's romantic for the Kaslana from the old and new civilizations to work together to save the ancestors of the Kaslana Family?" Chen Li said as he pried open Kevin and Kiana's hands that were gripping the door and tried to close it.
"It's not romantic at all!"
"Bye-bye, see you in half an hour."
"Wait, here's the question: why do I have to be in there too?" Houraisan Kaguya couldn't help but ask.
"Of course, we need your Power of Eternity to maintain the operation of the World Bubble and the survival of Mei inside. Although you can be resurrected after death, it's best not to die. Good luck!" Chen Li completely closed the door to the Second God Key, leaving Kevin Kaslana, Kiana Kaslana, and Houraisan Kaguya looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Buzz!" The Second God Key began to activate under the resonance of the Herrscher of the Void Core. A minute later, when Chen Li and the others opened the Second God Key again, it was empty.
"Is the data recorded?"
"All recorded." Vill-V nodded in satisfaction.
Now that we know the purpose and true data of the Second God Key, it is no longer of any use.
Vill-V plans to return to the First Civilization Era and use the Second Herrscher Core to create a completely new and superior God Key, one that is entirely different in function from the Second God Key.
Surpassing herself was a great challenge for Vill-V.
"However, I can't return to the First Civilization Era for the time being, otherwise it might cause the Cocoon of Eternity to react and trigger the Fifth Honkai Outbreak," Vill-V said after looking at her hands.
The current Vill-V is not the Vill-V of the past; she is now Vill-V who has merged with the Heaven's Lost Property!
[The Box of Fools - Spiral]
After arriving in the Second Civilization Era, Vill-V awakened the Stigmata – [Vill-V].
Flame-Chasers, who hadn't even matured in the First Civilization Era, went to the Second Civilization Era to receive the most suitable imprint for himself, which spanned 50,000 years... He's really too overpowered!
This results in their Exclusive Professions having incredibly high attribute brightness, naturally leading to their unique skills being extremely powerful.
Pardo's [Plunder] ability allows Pardo to provide comprehensive buffs based on the amount of wealth she has earned.
[Empty Dream], on the other hand, allows Pardo to be more free.
Although Chen Li didn't quite understand the introduction, there was no doubt that the more abstract the skill, the stronger it was.
As for the spiral in Vill-V's name, it only has two words: Miracle.
Based on Vill-V's own assessment, this ability allows Vill-V to have a flow of ideas and enter a state of inspiration at any time. Therefore, at Vill-V's request, Chen Li provided Vill-V with some data to help Vill-V create a more powerful Second God Key.
"That's great, I also want to have my own Exclusive Profession." Elysia looked at the exposed Stigmata on Vill-V's back with some envy.
"If you, Elysia, don't intend to fuse with the Heaven's Lost Property, I can draw Stigmata for you now and grant you Exclusive Profession." Chen Li took out his Wondrous Brush.
"That won't do! A family should be complete! Since the Thirteen Arbiter-Generals are all Fusion Warriors, they should fuse with something! I don't want to awaken an Exclusive Profession that has nothing to do with the Thirteen Arbiter-Generals when Pardo and Vill-V are already in such a neat formation." Elysia, who always valued rituals, rejected Chen Li's idea.
This is also why Elysia doesn't have her Exclusive Profession.
However, Elysia already possesses her own Stigmata – [Elysia]
"As for the Heaven's Lost Property was fused, I will find a way to compensate you... but I don't know how many Starstones I should pay? By the way, did you two, Vill-V and Pardo, pay anything?" Elysia asked curiously.
There's no need to ask about Mobius, because she already sold herself out, and she's not here now either.
"What I'm offering is this: I will earn 30,000 Starstones for Chen Li!" Vill-V said.
As a top scientist with a 100% participation rate in the team, Vill-V has this confidence.
Earning Starstones for Chen Li is much easier than earning them for Chen Li yourself.
Chen Li only needs to create mischief to earn Starstones, and Vill-V happens to be very good at creating mischief.
"Me? I'm just an Overhead Toss initiator, but I also signed an employment contract. The boss wants me to keep Trailblaze the market... Why do you think I keep calling him boss?" Pardo shrugged.
Cats have their uses.
It can be used to earn Starstones.
Pardo was taken to another world by Chen Li to earn money, which was essentially helping Chen Li earn Starstones.
Because any action will inevitably cause disturbance.
"Aili, it's a shame you don't have some Stigmata on your back." While Elysia was considering what to do in return, Chen Li walked around behind Elysia, lifted Elysia long hair, and looked at Elysia smooth back as he spoke.
Elysia is currently wearing a combat suit designed by Eden for Elysia —copied from the internet.
Elysia thought the outfit in the game suited her very well, so she quickly made one herself.
"... Xiao Li, you haven't said this to every single girl, have you?"
"..."
"Hmm, why aren't you saying anything? You didn't actually say that, did you?"
"No... at least I didn't tell Aqua," Chen Li swore.
"But at least he told me." Vill-V nodded.
"Me too." Pardo nodded as well.
"... But Elysia, your back is the most beautiful."
"Real?"
"At least for now."
Upon hearing this, Elysia rolled her eyes at Chen Li.
"Hmm, well... Elysia, your taste is the best, I can guarantee that!"
"Really? It's nice to receive praise, but it sounds really strange..."
Elysia always felt that Chen Li's way of evaluating girls was really strange.
But this is for the best.
