Chapter 352
However, this Noble Phantasm is irreversible.
"Alright, come on, come on." Baiheng closed his eyes.
"Don't worry, I'll help you recreate this skill after I take it, provided I can steal it from you!" Golden light emanated from Chen Li's right hand.
"No need. You must not return this skill to Baiheng." Jingliu, who was holding Baiheng's waist from Baiheng, resolutely refused.
"Baiheng, what do you think?"
"There's no need to ask for her opinion," Jingliu said firmly.
Even if Baiheng signed a contract using Forced Transaction Coins, saying that he would definitely not use this Noble Phantasm, Jingliu was still not at ease.
This is why Jingliu didn't refuse when Chen Li offered to help steal the Noble Phantasm, and instead helped hug Baiheng.
This useless skill should be permanently banned!
Permanent!
"Jingliu, don't get so agitated. I don't want it." Baiheng nodded repeatedly.
"Here I come! Steal!" Chen Li reached out to Baiheng.
Exceeding limits!
The light in Chen Li's hand grew brighter and brighter!
Meanwhile, Pardo, who was sunbathing nearby, also heard the notification from her Friends Circle Terminal that her chat history had been cleared.
Friendship Points +10000
Just like Chen Li said, Eden and Pardo can earn Friendship Points even if they're just lying around.
"Damn it! Why didn't they use my theft? I was here first!" Satou Kazuma cried.
"Why not use it? You know the answer in your heart." Pardo glanced at Satou Kazuma.
When you borrow someone else's skills through your Friends Circle, the skill will be used based on the original user's contribution level, and the attribute determination will also be based on that, such as luck.
The same setting applies to the Miraculous Item- level skills that have exceeded the limits.
So why do you think Chen Li didn't dare use the Satou Kazuma version of the theft on Baiheng, but instead used Pardo's?
"With so many Friendship Points gained, the boss should have achieved his goal by now." Pardo looked at Chen Li in the distance.
The income from Friendship Points is determined by many factors, such as the size of the help provided and the cost incurred by the helper.
"Let me see if the boss has any skills that would suit me? Oh... this one's not bad! Opening a spatial portal! Seems like a branch skill of the Herrscher of the Void!"
"Hmm... Although things with doors always remind me of unpleasant memories, this is really perfect for escaping... This is it!" Pardo subconsciously touched her stomach.
Regardless of Pardo's true fate—using luck to open a "door" beside the Herrscher of the End.
The same fate befell the Pardo Memory Fragment —assassinated in front of the door.
Having learned all this, Pardo was extremely reluctant to enter the "door".
But it's undeniably useful.
"It's just that I don't have enough Friendship Points... Boss, how about we talk? Could you learn a skill that makes you run really fast?" Pardo sprang up from the recliner and ran to find Chen Li.
"???" Chen Li looked at Pardo with some confusion.
"Because I need a skill that will allow me to run very fast," Pardo explained.
"If you need it, then go and learn it."
"But boss, this skill isn't available in your Friendship Points shop."
"So I need to learn a skill that makes me run really fast, then put it in the Friendship Points Shop, and then you learn that skill from the Friendship Points Shop? Am I some kind of skill mentor?" Chen Li complained.
Isn't that so?
"... I'll try my best. You go and add more chat logs first." Chen Li patted Pardo on the shoulder.
In short, let's just get by for now.
"Oh, so did you successfully steal what you wanted, boss?"
"Success." Chen Li picked up a dragon-shaped piece of paper from his hand.
Noble Phantasm: [Dragon Transformation]
When Baiheng possessed this Noble Phantasm, it was a hidden tattoo, so Baiheng could not transfer Noble Phantasm to Chen Li or throw it directly into the Artifact Forging Furnace.
But throwing Baiheng into the forging furnace Tai He... Jingliu would get angry.
"Alright, Jingliu, you can let go of me now." Baiheng patted Jingliu's hand that was wrapped around his waist.
"But you're going to disappear too, aren't you? The seven-day period is almost up."
"Hmm... After Kitsune Saiguu disappears, it's my turn."
"Are you calling me?" Kitsune Saiguu, not far away, pointed to himself.
"Yes, can you be sure when you will disappear?" Baiheng nodded and asked.
The timelines of the Honkai world and the Honkai: Star Rail world are not synchronized, and even less so with the timeline of the Xianzhou, which is why Baiheng doesn't even know when he disappeared.
Jingliu summoned Baiheng only after he summoned Kitsune Saiguu, so using Kitsune Saiguu as a stepping stone was definitely the right thing to do.
"You know what, I actually know..." Kitsune Saiguu looked up at the sky above him.
"I can see my countdown now, three minutes left... Chen Li, do you think if you use your stealing ability to steal the countdown above my head, I won't disappear?" Kitsune Saiguu suddenly had a whimsical idea.
"That would require using a super-limit ability, but Pardo has just exceeded the limit, and the number of chat records is zero, which is not enough to support exceeding the limit again."
"Isn't there also Satou Kazuma? He's also very lucky and knows how to steal, right? Why don't you use it on me?" Kitsune Saiguu invited.
"Huh? Using Satou Kazuma's thieving skills? Are you sure?"
"Let's give it a try. What if we can steal this countdown? It'll be a discovery, after all. I've only saved up one Resurrection Card. If we don't win, it might take a long time before I can revive again," said Kitsune Saiguu.
Whether Chen Li can be asked for help during the Revival Match needs to be tested, and coincidentally, Kitsune Saiguu is the first test subject.
"Okay, I'll give it a try... whatever happens later, I won't regret it."
"Don't worry." Kitsune Saiguu waved his hand.
"Is it finally my turn? Friendship Points, I want Friendship Points!" Satou Kazuma was very excited.
Satou Kazuma n't expect to gain 10,000 Friendship Points like Pardo after having his abilities borrowed, but he would gladly accept even a few hundred or a thousand Friendship Points.
As the golden light shone from Chen Li's hand, Satou Kazuma's chat history was instantly cleared, and at the same time, the pleasant sound of increasing Friendship Points echoed in Satou Kazuma's ears.
Friendship Points +666
"Huh? How come there's only this much?" Satou Kazuma was taken aback.
"..." Looking at the clothes in his hand, which had very little fabric, Chen Li glanced resentfully at Satou Kazuma in the distance.
Damn, this is both bizarre and real!
Theoretically, it seems not impossible for a novice-level Miraculous Item Level thief to steal a countdown timer. However, What If we apply Satou Kazuma's Luck Judgment and use the thief ability on a girl simultaneously...
Stealing the countdown is possible, but simply stealing the countdown is unlikely.
"Master!!" Kitsune Saiguu let out a sharp explosion.
"Let me make this clear first, you're the one who told me to steal it!"
"... Master, could you please return what you have in your hand to me first?" Kitsune Saiguu said somewhat awkwardly.
"Please accept this." Chen Li respectfully returned the panties from the Kitsune Saiguu.
The countdown wasn't stolen, but something more important was stolen. Now, Kitsune Saiguu could only hurry up and change his clothes to avoid going out naked during the Revival Match.
"Kazuma, to be fair... in the future, when you get Starstones, use them on the Hero attribute, not the Demonic attribute," Chen Li Satou Kazuma.
"Ah, I've never clicked on [Kichiku] before."
"Then how come you... never mind, maybe you're just exceptionally talented." Chen Li glanced at the entries on Satou Kazuma's body with a strange look.
What did you do after you got home yesterday? Why is the "ghostly" or "meme" tag so prominently displayed?
"... Stop calculating, just say what you want to say."
"There's nothing more to say, I'm going to play in the Revival Match."
"Help me! Mister Chen Li!"
"I'm here!"
"Master, do you think this match is of normal difficulty?" Kitsune Saiguu, who had summoned Chen Li, breathed a sigh of relief, then pointed at his opponent with a hint of resentment.
Standing opposite the Kitsune Saiguu was a one-eyed old man.
And he wasn't just any ordinary one-eyed old man.
Odin, the Allfather, versus the Kitsune Saiguu.
The countdown isn't over yet; there's still time for Kitsune Saiguu to rant.
Although Odin, the King of Gods, doesn't exist in Kitsune Saiguu's world, Kitsune Saiguu has seen advertisements featuring Odin, the King of Gods.
Yes, it's an advertisement.
Even the best songs can become tiresome, and even the most catchy tunes can become tiresome. At the strong request of Kitsune Saiguu, Chen Li changed Kitsune Saiguu's advertisements to a free mode.
"Well... I don't know. Life is unpredictable, and so is the Revival Match. Some people are lucky enough to succeed in the Revival Match on their first try and live a peaceful life, but someone always has to bear the burden for them." Chen Li shrugged.
Chen Li still doesn't understand the matchmaking mechanism for the Revival Match. Perhaps the difficulty of the challenge is related to the length of time since death, or it may be related to the impact of the character's revival on the world.
"Then why is it me?!"
"Who knows?" Chen Li shrugged.
"Wow, it worked!" Baiheng, who was watching the Kitsune Saiguu Revival Match live, exclaimed excitedly when he saw Chen Li appear on the Revival Match stage.
"That's great. With Chen Li playing in our place, the Revival Matches will be much easier. I just don't know if there will be any restrictions or limitations," Yakumo Yukari said calmly.
Although Yakumo Yukari is not dead yet, she will eventually die... probably.
Therefore, many people are paying attention to this Revival Match.
Out of respect for the king of gods before him, Chen Li conjured a black hole in his hand.
"I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?" Chen Li turned to look at Kitsune Saiguu before the countdown ended.
"Don't joke around, Master, I'm really scared."
"I knew I couldn't scare you..."
"Phew... at least it was a joke."
Actually, it's a bunch of bad news and one piece of good news.
"???"
"We are in a special space created by the One-star Artifact Revival Match, which means that Miraculous Item below one star level cannot be used in this space because they will be suppressed."
"You scared me to death, but Master, you even have a Two-star Artifact! It's not a big problem if you can't use Miraculous Item below one star."
"That's the second piece of bad news. Miraculous Items of one star or higher cannot be used in this space because they will interfere with the normal operation of this space and affect the effect of the Resurrection Card."
The Revival Match Miraculous Item has already reached its limit in constructing this special space—it will explode if you look at it again!
"... It's alright, Master, you still have One-star Artifact."
"This is the third piece of bad news. Even One-star Artifact won't work because it will be rejected."
"..." Kitsune Saiguu's face was now full of "Are you kidding me?" expressions.
"Of course, the above are all in principle. Now it's time to talk about principles." Chen Li saw the countdown reach zero and protected Kitsune Saiguu behind him.
"What's the meaning?"
"I am the principle!"
"Tyrant of the Heavens, witness the shattering of a galaxy!" Chen Li, holding a black hole in his hand, shot towards Odin, the king of the gods, like an arrow released from a bow.
"Speaking of which, what is that black hole in Chen Li's hand? It appeared when I summoned him last night. But it doesn't look like a real black hole."
"I don't know, but when I summoned him, he was holding this in his hand as well."
"Wait, what? You summoned Chen Li last night?" Sirin was stunned for a moment, then asked around.
