[Dad]: Oh.

"Alright, I can help you forge a Miraculous Item. We'll discuss the payment later, but you must pay me."

Chen Li felt that the Stellaron Hunters, a group of "unemployed vagrants," couldn't offer enough compensation, so Chen Li planned to collect two payments.

"No problem." Xing nodded.

"Let me think about what kind of Miraculous Item I want to create..." Chen Li fell into thought.

"How about... we reconsider this matter?" Himeko said.

"This is Xing's way of showing filial piety. Besides, we can use the decisive technique, but we can't be without it. Moreover, it would be a waste to keep such a high-level energy source as the Stellaron just inside the body as the heart," Chen Li explained to Xing.

Chen Li had always felt that Xing was a smart child since he was little.

Or rather, adding things to the star that weren't originally there would bring Chen Li a lot of Starstones income. As long as the income from Crystals is guaranteed to be positive, Chen Li has no reason to refuse.

In addition, Chen Li is currently eager to improve his Miraculous Forger level...

But what kind of Miraculous Item should we create for Xing?

Just like Chen Li said, simply having "immortality" would be a huge waste of the Stellaron inside the star.

Chapter 273 Chen Li: The Aeon Revival Match officially begins today!

"Can I use this Miraculous Item?" Just as Chen Li was pondering what kind of Miraculous Item to make for Xing, Xing touched the Miraculous Item that Chen Li had just made.

"No, absolutely not!" Chen Li snatched the Miraculous Item from Xing's hands.

"Why are you so wary? I'm not going to use it recklessly..." Xing inexplicably felt that Chen Li seemed to have a deep misunderstanding about her.

I always thought I'd suddenly have a major breakthrough!

That's far too biased in how we view the Stellaron!

"Just having this idea isn't enough."

"Oh, what are the effects of recommending Miraculous Items?"

"Fix your current humanity. The Miraculous Item is called the [Humanity Anchor]. So you absolutely cannot use it," Chen Li said.

"Why?"

"Because I think there's still room for your humanity to grow..." Chen Li said tactfully.

High emotional intelligence: The current star is beginning to take on a human form and has some understanding of human nature; he is destined for greatness in the future.

Low emotional intelligence: The child is still a bit naive, but we can't let him be defined like this!

The manifestation of Path of Destruction is recklessness, anger, and destruction.

The Path of Destruction as soon as he awoke speaks volumes.

This Miraculous Item is a one-time-use Miraculous Item that Chen Li created for Tonghua.

A total of 12 Crystals were consumed, and the reward was 40 Crystals.

The advantage of one-time Miraculous Item is that they can be created with the least amount of Crystals to achieve the best cost-performance Miraculous Item.

Disadvantages? No disadvantages?

It only costs you 12 Crystals, which is equivalent to getting an extra annual card with the monthly card, and it doesn't conflict with the monthly card.

Even if this annual card only gives you 30 Stellar Jade per day, Chen Li would still say it's a great deal!

The high multiplier is also due to the improvement of the Miraculous Forger level; otherwise, this Miraculous Item would have required at least 20 Crystals to complete.

Consumes the keywords [Humanity] ([Spirit] + [Status]) and [Anchor Point].

The creation of this Miraculous Item also taught Chen Li a little trick.

When using the Wondrous Brush skill to combine two entries into a new entry, it's really like mixing two solid paints; you don't have to mix the two entries completely together, but can allocate them proportionally.

Don't ask Chen Li how she knew.

So... what about all those entries you created related to mental illness, neurosis, mania, and obsessive-compulsive disorder?

"Keep it. You never know when you might need it."

The process of crafting is like this: every crafting attempt is a gamble.

You never know what new terms will emerge when different terms are combined.

It's like you don't know whether Himeko puts salt or laundry detergent in first when she cooks.

Fortunately, each synthesis is recorded in the recipe, so you can easily create the desired modifier next time. Furthermore, modifiers synthesized using the Wondrous Brush can be separated again.

The most humane episode on professional skills!

Chen Li didn't restore those strange entries because Chen Li felt they might actually be useful.

"Chen Li, have you decided what kind of gift you'd like to make for me?"

"I haven't decided yet. How about this, I'll interview you. What kind of Miraculous Item do you want? Is it one that can adjust the output of the Stellaron at any time, with the highest output being self-destruction, and then Miraculous Item after the explosion, or Miraculous Item that maximizes the power of the self-destruction?" Chen Li asked.

"I'm fine with either."

"..." The two words Chen Li least wanted to hear as a blacksmith were "Anything is fine."

These kinds of customers are often the most picky... but they might also genuinely be open to anything.

"Then let's see how it goes. Make good use of your newbie benefits period. Here's 50 Starstones. Go over there and draw something. I'll see if there's anything useful." Chen Li tossed the 50 Starstones to Xing.

If you don't know what kind of Miraculous Item to forge, then leave it all to fate.

Just yesterday, Chen Li gave each Astral Express Crew 50 Starstones as a greeting gift, but Xing was looking for treasure chests in the Herta Space Station at the time, so he didn't receive the gift.

[Stellaron Blast]: Create a Miraculous Item that can restore Stellaron.

Posted by: Xing.

Reward: 30-70 Crystals

Risk: Low

When Chen Li saw this commission, he didn't understand why the risk was "low".

Isn't Stellaron a very dangerous thing? Or is it that anything a star can do is justified?

Xing divided the 50 Starstones into two piles.

On my first gacha pull, I used up 20 Starstones and got a... token.

"Wow, this token glows!" Xing exclaimed.

Xing believed he had drawn something extraordinary, because he sensed a violent power surging within the token.

The owner of the token must be an extraordinary person.

Then I glanced at the name.

"What is meant by the Iron Beast's Backup Hidden Energy Source?" Xing scratched his head.

"Oh, so you mean this is the offspring of the Iron Beast... ah?" Chen Li snatched the token from the newbie's hand and threw it directly into the forging furnace.

The token didn't explode because everything drawn from the Starsea Trove has a protection period.

But based on Chen Li's understanding of Xing, it wasn't impossible for Xing to do something like throwing the token out like a firecracker to make a sound.

The Backup Hidden Energy Source is an item in "Lolo's Adventure". It's like a trump card, used to take down the enemy together. Once activated, it will make all the energy in your body run at high speed and cause large-scale damage (the higher the user's level, the stronger the explosion).

It's worth mentioning that all the backup hidden in this animated film were used to blow up the same person— the Tiger King.

This Tiger King is quite a character!

[Warrior], [Loyalty], [Self-Destruction], [Energy], [Overclocking]...

It is indeed the Backup Hidden Energy Source of the Iron Beast.

After all, loyalty...

Yes, loyalty...

Qi Chen Li suddenly had an idea!

A bold idea!

The terms like "overclocking" and "self-destruction" on this token do seem somewhat compatible with the Miraculous Item Xing wants to create, but the most suitable term is actually "loyalty."

"Continue." Chen Li pointed to the remaining 30 Starstones.

Although he had some initial ideas, Chen Li still planned to see how far Star Energy could go.

"Oh."

This time, Xing crushed the remaining 30 Starstones and reached his hand into the black hole.

After fiddling around for a while, Xing took out... Xing then took out a token.

Xing subconsciously threw the token into the forging furnace, then quickly ran to the side, squatted down, and covered his ears in one smooth motion!

Hearing that there was no explosion, the act of sneaking a peek perfectly illustrates a certain image.

Xing didn't even look at the name.

"... Why are you so skilled at this?" Chen Li couldn't help but ask.

Xing looked exactly like the king of children who lit the firecracker fuse, threw the firecracker into Peppy's basin, and immediately ran to the side to hide and listen to the noise.

"It's not someone else's Backup Hidden Energy Source, so there's no need to hide anymore." Chen Li took the token out of the forging furnace.

"Isn't that so?"

"Why the pity in your voice? This thing is called... emmm, Return City Token?"

[Return]

There is only one entry.

Simple, direct, and brutal.

It's still a bit hot.

It's probably fresh out of the oven.

It's not the temperature of the forging furnace, because Chen Li's Miracle Fire has no temperature.

Chen Li thought for a moment, then threw the token into the forging furnace.

Chen Li gradually developed a rather bold idea!

Even bolder than before!

"Here's 100 Starstones. Go over there and draw a prize. Draw one Starstones a time. By the time you've used up all these Starstones, I'll have almost finished crafting the Miraculous Item you want." Chen Li felt that Xing's beginner period shouldn't be wasted like this, so he tossed Xing a bag of Starstones.

"Yes, Golden Honkai-Moe King!" Xingchao Chen Li saluted.

Keep up the good work Patrick Star!

"So, Golden Honkai-Moe King, what kind of Miraculous Item do you plan to create for me?" Xing was still somewhat curious.

"You'll find out in a moment." Chen Li began to extract the terms that would be used this time.

"Let me think... I remember there's a very prominent [Split] entry, where is it? Oh right, the Key of Domination! Perfect, I can add a [Domination] entry to that too!"

Chen Li began forging with great enthusiasm.

Domination, Return, Loyalty, Division... Let's add Overclock to increase its power.

It was the Backup Hidden Energy Source of the Iron Beast that gave Chen Li the inspiration.

Because as it turns out, if you treat yourself like a firecracker, you might actually become a firecracker yourself, only making a noise but not actually hitting anyone.

Even self-destruction requires skill.

Xing drew Starsea Trove 100 times; his hand was almost sore.

But when Xing looked at the Parlor Car, which was almost full of the treasures she had drawn, a sense of satisfaction rose in her heart.

I caught a whole 100 jellyfish myself!

Can the Golden Honkai-Moe King do it?!
