Luo Li

Biodata

Power Progression

Official ability ratings measure Luo Li’s registered capabilities, not the full extent of his concealed Path powers 28 40 43.

Background and History

Life Before Castorice

Born and raised in Jiangcheng, Luo Li had a clean record and uncomplicated social connections. At university, he was known as the esports club’s pride. By year 25 of the Blood Era, he had chosen streaming over the stipend and prestige of patrol service, using Super-Speed Reaction to compete in Honor of Kings’ Peak Tournament 24 35 43.

His carefree broadcasts concealed fear of the front lines and frustration with his limited strength. While vampires threatened the city, he maintained a sheltered routine of gaming, irregular sleep, instant noodles, and takeout 9 12 35.

Taking in Castorice

Luo Li’s routine ended when Castorice emerged through a vortex in his computer screen while he watched her Honkai: Star Rail story. He recognized her immediately, but initially hesitated over the danger of her death curse 1.

After the curse was lifted, watching Castorice safely touch a pothos leaf strengthened his sense of responsibility toward her. He provided food, clothing, and a room, then taught her how to use appliances, phones, online shopping, and a keyboard 4 5 10 21 31 35.

Her undocumented status posed a more immediate threat than ordinary unfamiliarity. After Yang Shan explained the possible consequences of discovery, Luo Li concealed her presence and pursued a system-provided identity solution. He eventually secured temporary residence registration, although the fabricated identity remained vulnerable to high-level checks 9 14.

Path Awakening and Guild Registration

With Castorice’s embrace and blessing, Luo Li awakened Remembrance, nearly losing himself in the torrent of memories before stabilizing. He began training, completing memory-reading tasks, and learning to support his Memory Spirit, Xiao Hong 15 16 18 19.

Rather than repeatedly hunt vampires to feed Xiao Hong, he exploited a guild provision allowing research-oriented ability users to request specimens. He registered his power as Deep Information Perception and Traceback, obtaining a legal route to missions and research materials 28.

Finality later showed him a possible future in which Castorice lived in Okhema with twin daughters while he was absent. The system stressed that this was only a possibility; Luo Li resolved to grow strong enough to change it 29.

Becoming a Combatant

His relationship with Castorice culminated in a Ferris-wheel confession and kiss. Their mutual feelings brought forth the Spacetime Path and Enma, prompting him to move beyond support work into direct combat 35 36.

Luo Li began clearing nests and gathering valuable monster materials to accumulate contribution points for a safer, larger home. His efficiency attracted guild attention, and Lei Zhen’s assessment secured his B-rank combat rating. At Blackwater Wharf, he killed a B+ Parasitic Water Ghost Mother and earned the respect of Yang Shan’s squad 36 38 39 41 42 43.

Howling Wind Canyon

An A-rank vampire, Earl Shadowwing, brought down Luo Li’s helicopter in Howling Wind Canyon. Luo Li survived the crash through a desperate use of his Spacetime powers, but the ensuing battle left him critically wounded 45 46.

He awakened Spacetime Displacement, turned the vampire’s attack against it, and beheaded it with Enma. After detecting an unidentified observer, he discovered the injured researcher Lu Jingheng and carried him toward safety, remaining suspicious of the survivor’s unusually faultless behavior 46 47.

A guild rescue team recovered them at the canyon boundary and sent them to Jiangcheng Central Hospital. Luo Li apologized to Castorice for worrying her and accepted a wooden peace pendant from Lu Jingheng, while suspecting the gift had another purpose 50.

Appearance

• Build: Somewhat slender-looking, despite eventually developing enough strength to lift a stone lock he estimates at 150–200 kilograms 39.
• Looks and voice: Described as good-looking and possessing a great voice, both assets to his streaming career 1.
• Combat attire: Wears a combat uniform during the Howling Wind Canyon mission 50.

Personality

Luo Li presents himself as lazy, irreverent, and entertaining. His broadcasts mix competitive play with showmanship, exaggerated threats, and embarrassing moments that fan editors eagerly remix. His apparent indifference to the apocalypse initially masks helplessness rather than genuine confidence 1 17 35.

He is patient with Castorice’s unfamiliarity and becomes noticeably more disciplined after taking her in. Although system rewards tempt him to pursue intimacy, he initially rejects treating her vulnerability as an opportunity. Later, he abandons deliberately engineered contact in favor of steady companionship and personal training 4 9 24.

His caution extends to concealing his powers and seeking legal, low-risk ways to obtain resources. Nevertheless, insults toward Castorice provoke a much harsher response: he subjects a subway harasser to a terrifying mental illusion rather than tolerate continued abuse 28 33 40.

Luo Li values a stable shared future over immediate gratification. He declines the system’s proposed shortcut to an ultimate reward, explaining that he wants a secure home before risking parenthood. The decision deepens his bond with Castorice to the system’s “Soulmates” level 37.

Abilities & Skills

Super-Speed Reaction

His original C-rank ability accelerates his reactions, initially making him more useful as a competitive gamer than a frontline fighter 1 12.

• Supports precise targeting and rapid mechanical inputs in games 1.
• Remains useful alongside Time Retardation and Enma in combat 36.
• Does not guarantee that his body can match an enemy’s speed; Earl Shadowwing outpaces his physical response even when he perceives the attack 46.

Remembrance

Remembrance lets Luo Li perceive memories and mental traces, then manipulate mental experiences 16 18 33.

• Remembrance Perception: Reads residual information from objects, environments, vampire remains, and crystals; supports intelligence gathering and threat detection 18 28 36.
• Remembrance Weaving: Constructs mental illusions. Combined with Finality, it makes a subway attacker experience apparent days of terror within one real-world second 33.
• Combat recollection: Resonates with his accumulated gaming experience, improving mechanical fluidity and decision-making 22.
• Limits: Chaotic memory fragments demand careful interpretation, and the unknown canyon observer evades his perception 28 46 47.

Finality and Future Preview

Finality reveals possible futures and can alter subjective time perception 29 33.

• Future Preview: Anticipates attack trajectories a few tenths of a second ahead and warns of ambushes and traps 36 39 42.
• Limit: Visions are possibilities, not fixed outcomes 29.
• Cost: Spontaneous visions severely drain his mental strength; a sufficiently fast attack can still overwhelm his preview 29 45 46.

Spacetime

Formed from Remembrance and Finality, Spacetime gives Luo Li ways to perceive and interfere with time, space, and causality 35.

• Time Retardation: Slows nearby time; during the blood-bat mission, affects the area within five meters of him 36.
• Space Folding: Provides rapid travel to gathering sites and can deflect incoming force 39 40.
• Causal Tracing: Identifies vulnerable energy nodes and openings for precise killing strikes 36 46.
• Existence Anchoring: Protects him against most psychic interference 39.
• State Reversion: Reverts his own state; his desperate use during the helicopter crash turns back approximately three seconds 45.
• Spacetime Displacement: Exchanges his state with a selected nearby coordinate, allowing him to escape Earl Shadowwing’s fatal strike and redirect its consequences 46.
• Limits: Major applications consume substantial mental energy. Excessive use can also cause past and future fragments to overlap in his awareness 35 45 46.

Portable Space

A system-granted B-rank storage ability, later improved through “Mark of the Bond” 7 21.

• Carries shopping, gathered resources, and monster materials 7 38 39.
• Helps make collection-heavy guild missions especially profitable 38 39.

Xiao Hong

Xiao Hong is Luo Li’s red, initially spherical Memory Spirit, residing in his mental space 19 28.

• Feeds on blood-rich Remembrance Energy obtained from vampires and other suitable targets 19 28 31.
• Requires purer, higher-quality energy to overcome its growth bottleneck 28.
• After consuming an anomalous monster’s energy, becomes more solid and briefly forms indistinct hands, though its direct combat ability remains limited 31.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Bloodblade Enma — A will-bound, dark-red weapon initially taking the form of a Tang-style straight saber. Luo Li can summon it from system storage, and others cannot use it 34 36.
  • Bloodthirsty Evolution: Absorbs blood—especially vampire blood—to improve its sharpness, toughness, spirituality, forms, and skills 34.
  • Demon Breaking: Deals bonus damage to beings that are not purely material, including vampires, undead, and energy entities 34.
  • Soul Devouring: Converts part of a slain enemy’s soul energy into mental-energy replenishment for Luo Li 34 36.
  • Blood-Drinking Revival: Unlocked after killing Earl Shadowwing; returns life essence and energy to heal injuries and replenish reserves 46.
  • Risk: Exceptionally desirable blood and soul energy can drive Enma into a semi-uncontrollable state and affect Luo Li’s mind 45.
• Identity-anchoring tool — A system-provided, 24-hour tool used to establish Castorice’s provisional identity; it does not guarantee success against high-level scrutiny 14.
• Wooden peace pendant — Given to him by Lu Jingheng after their rescue. Luo Li suspects an ulterior purpose, but none is confirmed 50.

Relationships

• Castorice — Housemate and eventual lover. Their relationship motivates his training, anchors his sense of the present, and develops into a shared plan for a secure home. “Wife” and “hubby” become affectionate forms of address; the documented relationship confirmation is “lovers” 35 36 37 41.
• Yang Shan — Childhood friend and trusted patrol ability user. Warns Luo Li about undocumented residents, brings him into his squad, and enthusiastically celebrates his growth 9 35 42 43.
• Luo Li’s mother — Frequently presses him to obtain stable work and a girlfriend. Her attitude turns warmly approving when Castorice introduces herself during a birthday call 5 32.
• Luo Li’s father — Attempts to moderate his wife’s pressure, insisting that Luo Li knows what he is doing 32.
• Yu Qian — His maternal cousin, three years older; an office worker and skilled video editor. Refers him to Lei Zhen for reassessment 17 39.
• Qingqiu Ze — A friend who writes a flamboyant confession song about Luo Li and Castorice. Luo Li respects his preference for streaming and voice acting over frontline service 11.
• Yuan Huan — A university senior two years ahead of him and an A-rank Flash Blade user. Recognizes his changed energy and warns him about unrest outside 24.
• Lei Zhen — A-rank guild adviser and martial arts school master who assesses his combat ability. Luo Li deliberately conceals his strongest powers during their sparring 39 40 41.
• Lin Wei and A Tu — Yang Shan’s squadmates. Their initial doubts give way to respect after Luo Li kills the B+ Water Ghost Mother 42 43.
• Deacon Wang — Guild official who questions his rapid growth, accepts his explanation, and offers more demanding missions 43.
• Lu Jingheng — Injured researcher Luo Li rescues from the canyon. His helpfulness earns appreciation without fully dispelling Luo Li’s suspicions 47 50.
