Their commission was suspicious.

"no problem."

"By the way, Klein, what brings you here again?"

"Oh right, Alicia is waiting at the lab entrance right now, saying she wants to discuss some things. I think it's something like performing talents or a script," Klein said, trying hard to recall what Alicia had said.

……

"I can play the flute, and Mebius can dance; we are a match made in heaven."

"Snapped!"

Mebius slapped Chen Luo, who immediately crouched down beside him, clutching his head.

Mebius got angry whenever Chen Luo mentioned that flute.

"That's a great suggestion, like Möbius dancing or something..."

"Don't even think about it," Mebius retorted.

"Well, it's already pretty good that Mebius went to the party instead of using excuses like having to do experiments at night to avoid it."

Alicia could no longer hope for anything more from Mebius.

“I can play the harmonica,” Chen Luo said, raising his hand as he squatted on the ground.

"That's Kosmo's performing talent."

"I can sing hymns."

“That’s from Aponia.”

"I can take care of cutting the cake."

"That's Desdobia's job."

"I can write screenplays, birthday screenplays..."

“That’s mine! I suspect you did it on purpose… I really don’t believe you can sing hymns.”

"Then... I can play the erhu."

"Erhu? That doesn't seem like the kind of instrument you'd see at a birthday party..."

Alicia was a little conflicted. Why were all of Chen Luo's talents such grotesque and unorthodox talents?

"Okay, then I'll choose to press Kevin down with one hand. I'll be responsible for raising Kevin's overly low temperature a bit."

"Why didn't you say that earlier?" Alicia rolled her eyes at Chen Luo.

"What are you saying? As the head chef of the banquet, I've already made a lot of contributions, haven't I?"

"Will you be in the lab this afternoon too? My birthday party script isn't quite perfect yet, it's being revised. I'll bring it to you this afternoon when it's finished."

“If it’s too late, you might have to come to the kitchen to find me. You’ve been slacking off for so long, it’s time to start preparing dinner, like baking a cake,” Chen Luo said.

"Thank you for your hard work, Lolo."

"It's not hard work. In this apocalypse, where every day is uncertain, every birthday is worth remembering, after all, it's proof that a person has lived in this world. For this, I will spare no effort!"

Even if you don't give them the raw gem, it's the same.

……

"So... this is what you mean by you going to work tirelessly?" Möbius, who had just finished an experiment, saw the scene in the kitchen and his vision went black.

Mebius originally planned to visit Chen Luo and, if Chen Luo was too tired, give him some rewards and comfort as appropriate.

Although Mebius wasn't interested in Kevin's birthday, he was interested in Chen Luo.

However, the current situation is indeed somewhat unexpected for Mebius.

"No wonder you chose to have Hua bring home that cake-baking tool from the Fire Moth Diner. Oh, I see."

"Please, sculpting dolls is tiring too." Chen Luo gently opened his mouth, his two slender fingers pinching a peeled grape, and put it into his mouth.

Jeanne Alter stood behind Chen Luo, disdainfully scattering grape skins.

Chen Luo, meanwhile, sat in an ergonomic chair, sculpting the details of the doll.

As for who's in charge of baking the cake?

Of course it's the Oath of Judah, what else could it be but Chen Luo?

Chen Luo is currently sculpting dolls. After practicing on the characters from Gensokyo yesterday, his doll-sculpting skills have rapidly improved from zero to level one.

Chen Luo's Morgan doll is not yet finished. To achieve a high level of refinement, it requires slow and meticulous work.

However, the problem now isn't with Morgan's doll, but with Kevin's doll.

In addition to putting a few IOUs for the number of times the ability to suppress was suppressed in the box, Chen Luo planned to carve a doll for Kevin, which would be in line with his gift-giving habits as a puppeteer.

"Alright, the figurines of Kevin and May are finished." Chen Luo stood up after carving the last stroke and assembling the figurines.

Since it wasn't a task to complete, Chen Luo directly used his superb skill in manipulating silk threads to finish 95% of the carving of the puppet.

Not only is the quality perfect, but the speed is also extremely fast.

"I want a reward." After putting down the doll, Chen Luo looked up at Möbius and said.

"Why should I reward you if you didn't even lift a finger?" Möbius reopened the door, intending to leave.

Mebius was not surprised that Chen Luo had read his thoughts.

"I don't care, I want it."

"..."

"I'm going to get the hibernation suit." Seeing the new bubble appearing above Möbius's head, Chen Luo ran straight to Möbius's dormitory.

Upon hearing about the hibernation suit, Möbius sighed.

Möbius walked in, closed the door, and headed towards his dormitory.

The hibernation suit shouldn't take too long, right?

……

In the sea of ​​consciousness, the Lawbringer of Consciousness gazed at the Imaginary Number Tree, which was constantly shedding its leaves, and fell into deep thought.

Does this tree... have some kind of leaf blight or something?

Chapter 1096 Kevin's Birthday Wish

"Your Highness, Miss Mebius, it's time to get up." Chen Luo, who was fast asleep, felt as if someone was calling him.

"Your Highness, Your Highness?" Judah Oath pushed Chen Luo, who was wrapped up like a caterpillar, aside.

Although the Judah Oath also hoped that Chen Luo could rest more, the time was almost up.

"Hmm, is it already this late?" Chen Luo opened his eyes groggily and was shocked to see that the clock had already pointed to 7.

No way, how much time has passed? It's already 7 pm.

"Wake up, wake up, Snake, your experiment is ruined." Chen Luo quickly rolled out of the so-called hibernation suit, which was actually a double sleeping bag, and tried to wake up Möbius.

“It doesn’t matter, Klein will take care of it,” Mebius said, sounding somewhat tired.

Möbius was extremely interested in research, even to the point of fanaticism.

But there are always things in the world more important than doing experiments, like lying in a double sleeping bag.

Moreover, it wasn't an important experiment, otherwise Möbius wouldn't have been able to skip it to attend Kevin's birthday party.

Mebius felt as if he had been soaking in a hot spring for a long time and didn't want to leave.

I felt cold as soon as I left the hot spring.

“Even if you don’t want to get up, you have to get up. If you don’t get up now, Alicia will come looking for us in 3 minutes and 52 seconds,” Chen Luo said.

"Then call me again at 3 minutes and 51 seconds."

"..."

"Besides, Alicia is looking for you, what does that have to do with me? Just tell Kevin that the experiment has reached an important step, so I don't have time to go, and I'll take my gift with me..."

"...They're colleagues, after all. How can he miss a birthday celebration for such an absurd reason?" Chen Luo sighed, looking at the lazy Möbius.

[You can't enjoy the high comfort bonus without Mebius, so she'll naturally leave the Hibernation Set.] The talent's humanized plugin provides a solution.

"But I don't want to get up either, why should I get up first?" Chen Luo muttered to himself.

【…】

Humans are such foolish creatures.

The Law of Consciousness altered your consciousness, and now you remember.

"Xiao Shi is coming out?!"

A sense of foreboding suddenly arose in Chen Luo's mind.

Because Chen Luo was asleep, the Herrscher of Consciousness, unable to leave the sea of ​​consciousness, decided to leave after discovering that Chen Luo had woken up. 10 seconds countdown...

This was the sharpest whip, which instantly terrified Chen Luo, but he immediately perked up.

Oh my god!

Due to the unique nature of the Sea of ​​Consciousness, the Lawbringer of Consciousness cannot freely enter or leave when Chen Luo is sleeping, otherwise it will wake Chen Luo up. Therefore, the Lawbringer of Consciousness has gotten used to this most of the time.

Fortunately, the bar door can be opened even in the sea of ​​consciousness, so the Herrscher of Consciousness isn't too bored.

If the Herrscher of Knowledge were to emerge and see what Chen Luo was doing, Chen Luo didn't want to waste his imagination on what it might do...

Chen Luo instantly became invisible, skipping the process of opening the sleeping bag, and used his virtual stealth ability to run directly to his dormitory.

Although Judah's Oath was unaware of what had happened, it followed along.

After Chen Luo left the hibernation suit, Mebius, whose comfort level instantly dropped by half, felt a huge sense of loss and reluctantly rolled out of the hibernation suit as well.

That despicable Chen Luo!

That despicable Lawgiver of Knowledge!

Humanity will surely defeat the Honkai!

“You keep saying my schedule is irregular, but even if my schedule is irregular, I only sleep until noon at most. But you, you sleep until 7 pm. What right do you have to criticize my irregular schedule!” As soon as Mebius came out, he saw the Herrscher of Knowledge criticizing Chen Luo.

Chen Luo lowered his head as if accepting the criticism from the one who knew the law, without offering any rebuttal.

Meanwhile, the Lawbringer, who had finally found an opportunity to reprimand Chen Luo, was basking in the fruits of his victory with high spirits.

Because of his guilt, Chen Luo never dared to openly refute the Law of Knowledge, which only emboldened the Law of Knowledge to take advantage of him.

Fortunately, after Mebius arrived at Chen Luo's dormitory, the Herrscher of Knowledge became somewhat more restrained.

When the Herrscher of Consciousness learned that Alicia would be arriving soon, she reluctantly prepared to enter the Sea of ​​Consciousness.

The Herrscher of Knowledge had just gone to the main world to explore with Su Yuan and the others for a long time, and only now has she returned. She really deserves a rest.

……

"Wow, Lolo, is this the dinner you made? It's so lavish! And this cake is huge!" Alicia stared wide-eyed at the luxurious three-tiered cake.

Although a three-tiered cake can hardly be called luxurious, there weren't many people at this birthday party.

We can't finish it, we absolutely can't finish it.

Besides the cake, the other dishes also looked delicious.

Although it might sound a little strange to eat a proper meal after finishing the cake, it was all worth it to give Kevin a surprise!

The food was placed in the specially designed insulated containers of the Fire-Chasing Moth, and the dishes Chen Luo prepared this time were the kind that require long simmering to taste good. Therefore, storing them in the insulated containers for a period of time would not affect their taste.

As for longevity noodles, Chen Luo has already prepared the broth and kneaded the dough. He's just waiting for the other people to cut the cake while he cooks the noodles.

All of this was prepared with great care...

"Of course, I've already said I'll do my best!"

Anyway, it wasn't Chen Luo who was busy, but rather the Oath of Judah.

"Alright, it'll start in almost an hour, let's go," Alicia said to Chen Luo, Mebius, and Hua.

Kevin's birthday party was held at 8 p.m. and lasted for more than an hour.
