Their commission was suspicious.

Otto, the leader of Destiny, is arguably the only one who has the final say.

Initially, the Mandate of Heaven was indeed composed of three major families, who jointly held power. However, 500 years was enough time for Otto to reshape the Mandate of Heaven into his own form.

Don't even mention passing it on to Chen Luo; even if Otto passed the archbishopric to a mere paramecium, no one would dare to object.

"Of course, that's on the premise that you can actually resurrect Kallen. Otherwise, a promise is just a promise. And if you really can resurrect her, please let me witness it. Alright, let's go. Let's go ask my dear granddaughter some questions." After Otto finished speaking, he stood up and walked out of the bar.

The reason he left in such a hurry was because Otto wouldn't completely believe Chen Luo's words.

Although Chen Luo claimed that his bar could connect different timelines, Otto remained somewhat skeptical and naturally needed to verify it.

And if you want to verify this, who is more reliable than your own beloved granddaughter?

Of course, even after verifying it with his granddaughter, Otto would continue to verify it himself, spending some time here every day, hiding in a corner to observe.

Otto was certain that Chen Luo was not lying until he was certain that Chen Luo was not lying.

It wasn't until Otto confirmed that the bar did indeed have the ability to travel back 50,000 years.

Otto was a man who never trusted people easily.

You think I'd believe you just because you say so? Do you think I'm an idiot?

The wine that Chen Luo gave to Otto for free was not even touched by Otto.

So Otto is a difficult person to deal with.

Of course, his task was equally difficult.

Otto's requirements were much higher than Yae Sakura's. Yae Sakura only needed Kallen, since she was someone who could live with Kallen in the Stigmata Space for a long time.

But Otto is different. The Kallen that Otto wants must be the Kallen who died 500 years ago for the people, fighting against the Honkai Beasts.

Although Chen Luo didn't intend to just throw Kallen at Yae Sakura, Otto's requirements were indeed quite complicated.

The key concern for Chen Luo is that even if he resurrects the real Kallen, what if Otto doesn't believe him?

The key issue is that Otto is incredibly stubborn; he simply doesn't believe things, no matter how much you present the truth to him.

Otto is such a clever little devil.

If it weren't for the generous rewards of the Otto mission...

But then again, can a five-star mission give 3000 Primogems? If it gives an extra 200, that's enough for two ten-pulls.

In addition, it also comes with the entire destiny.

Wouldn't that mean Chen Luo has truly ascended to the throne of destiny?

Masaka! Could it be that Chen Luo's dream of being a five-time spy and a five-time enlightened ruler is really about to come true?

Anti-Entropy, Destiny, Moth Chasing Flames, St. Freya Academy, Honkai Impact.

The first two are likely to succeed, needless to say.

The last three are a bit more troublesome.

"But what's the point of getting Otto's favorability? Should I just add 50?" Chen Luo looked at one of the rewards for the commission, his expression somewhat uncertain.

Is Otto trying to mess with me?

The favorability bonus Otto gained from this mission was the highest Chen Luo had ever seen, bar none.

Mebius's doesn't count; that was a reward he offered.

"This mission is tough." Chen Luo rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

Five-star missions are indeed difficult to complete.

Reviving Kallen isn't a big problem; the key issue is that those bizarre conditions are truly difficult to meet.

She even had to convince Otto that this Karen was the same Karen he knew.

When has Chen Luo ever been treated like this when accepting a commission?

"Ding-a-ling!" The sound of wind chimes interrupted Chen Luo's thoughts.

"Manager, a cup of bitter melon juice, please!"

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"...The timing of your groups is absolutely perfect. Anyone who arrives a minute earlier or leaves a minute later will run into you." Chen Luo sighed as he looked at the newcomers.

First Mebius left, then Otto arrived a while later, then Otto left again, and then Theresa arrived a couple of minutes later.

Actually, Chen Luo was quite curious. If these three groups of people were to collide, how would the Herrscher of Knowledge introduce himself?

"Theresa, I've packed up the bitter melon juice for you." Chen Luo handed the packed bitter melon juice to Theresa.

"Ah, manager, I wasn't planning on taking it to go?" Theresa looked at the already packaged bitter melon juice, somewhat bewildered.

“But you’re leaving soon,” Chen Luo said.

“What do you mean you’re leaving soon? I just arrived, I still need to drink a few more cups of bitter melon juice,” Theresa said, arms crossed.

“10秒钟之内你就要走，10、9、8、7……”

"Beep beep!" But before Chen Luo could finish counting down, the communicator on Theresa's wrist started beeping.

Chen Luo's bar has a signal that connects everyone's world, so there's no need to worry about not having a signal when you come here.

"Uh... Kiana, eat less ice cream, I have something to do so I'll be going now." Looking at the call request, Theresa picked up the packaged bitter melon juice and ran out.

"Wow, Aro! You're amazing! You can even foresee the future!" Kiana almost instantly forgot about Theresa's lecture and ran straight to Chen Luo, looking at him with shining eyes.

Chapter 165 Immersed in Shen He's "Intentions"

"Alo, Alo, you're so amazing, do you think I can become the strongest Valkyrie in Schicksal in the future?" Kiana asked, her eyes sparkling as she tugged at Chen Luo's hand.

“Oh, little… isn’t Fu Hua over there? Why don’t you ask her?” Chen Luo said, pointing to the Herrscher of Knowledge over there.

“Hey, it’s just that I trust you more, Aro,” Kiana said matter-of-factly.

"Hmm, okay, then I'll answer your question. Kiana Kaslana will become the strongest Valkyrie in Schicksal in the future," Chen Luo said after pretending to do some calculations.

"Wow, Mei, did you hear that? Aro said I'll become the strongest Valkyrie in Schicksal!" Kiana excitedly grabbed Mei's hand again after hearing Chen Luo's confirmation.

"Really? That's wonderful." Mei smiled gently.

"Idiot Kiana, you're easily fooled by praise like that, which is only good for children." Bronya, who was following behind the two, gave them a disdainful look.

"That's what Alo said. You can ask him if you don't believe me. He can even accurately predict that Aunt Flo will leave immediately. Alright, Bronya, don't be jealous. After I become the strongest Valkyrie in Schicksal, I'll protect you." Kiana patted Bronya's head triumphantly from above.

"..." Chen Luo wanted to stop Kiana's taunts, but didn't know how to start.

Kiana and Kaslana are indeed the strongest Valkyries in Schicksal, but the problem isn't with this Kiana and Kaslana.

Honkai Impact 3rd is a world that knows how to have fun.

Fu Hua can't become a Herrscher, so let the Herrscher become Fu Hua.

Kiana cannot become the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal because Durandal's combat power is somewhat overpowered, so let Durandal become Kiana Kaslana.

"Alright, alright, you three, stop arguing. You might not believe it, but you two can also become the strongest Valkyries, just not from the same faction," Chen Luo said to Mei and Bronya.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Mei asked, puzzled.

"Uh, it's a secret, would you like some ice cream?"

"Yes!" Kiana was the first to say.

How should we judge these three Valkyries before us?

Raiden Mei will become the strongest Valkyrie in World Serpent, because she is the only Valkyrie in World Serpent.

Bronya will become Anti-Entropy's strongest Valkyrie, because Anti-Entropy only has her as its Valkyrie.

As for Kiana? She will become the strongest Valkyrie on the moon, because she's the only one there.

What kind of hellish joke is this?

……

"Are you really coming?"

"You really want to come."

"Nonsense, hurry up. How come it's so difficult for you, a demon, to absorb killing intent and evil energy?" Shi Bao slapped Chen Luo on the head with a chop.

"Well, this... Shen He, just bear with it." Chen Luo nodded somewhat reluctantly, then said to Shen He, who had his back to him.

"Okay, you...you can do it." Shen He paused for a moment, then nodded.

Shen He didn't understand why things had turned out this way. He had come to this bar hoping that the Herrscher of Knowledge would help him absorb some of the killing intent and malevolent energy.

Yesterday, after I returned to the mountain from the bar, my master did say that the murderous aura and evil spirit on me had lessened, and after hearing my explanation, he agreed with me.

When I arrived at the bar today, I discovered that it wasn't the Herald of Knowledge absorbing my killing intent and malevolent energy anymore, but the manager.

It's so magical.

"There might be some strange things during the absorption process, just bear with it," Chen Luo said, placing his fingers on Shen He's back.

"Um, I understand." In fact, the moment Chen Luo's fingers touched Shen He's smooth back, Shen He had already sensed something was wrong.

For various reasons, Shen He's body temperature is relatively low, and the temperature of the Herrscher of Knowledge's hand that absorbed the killing intent for Shen He yesterday is also quite low. But Chen Luo is different; Chen Luo's fingers are relatively warm, which makes Shen He feel a little uncomfortable.

It was a very strange feeling, but I couldn't say I disliked or hated it.

"I'm coming." After Chen Luo finished speaking softly, the Herrscher of Knowledge version of the inner demon ability was activated, and wisps of black killing intent and baleful energy were extracted from Shen He's body by Chen Luo.

Feeling as if something was being pulled from his body, Shen He was extremely sensitive to his physical sensations. In addition, Chen Luo's finger, even though it was just a single finger, was radiating an astonishing heat. As a result, Shen He's voice finally escaped his lips uncontrollably.

"..." Listening to Shen He's somewhat strange voice, Chen Luo felt as if he were doing something shameful.

But the problem is that Chen Luo is indeed doing something important.

Although Chen Luo could indeed use silk threads to extract killing intent and malevolent energy instead of touching it with his hands, the problem was that Shen He's killing intent and malevolent energy were quite strong, so it was better to manipulate it by hand.

Otherwise, Chen Luo was afraid that his wires might not be able to withstand the strain.

Simply put, the line is used to cast a wide net, which is good for dealing with weak opponents, while the hand-touching method is good for dealing with powerful single targets.

In fact, those who understand the laws are also like this.

Through Chen Luo's efforts, the killing intent and baleful aura within Shen He's body were gradually extracted by Chen Luo. Unlike the Herrscher of Consciousness, who was made into a ball, Chen Luo made it into a chocolate bar this time.

"Alright, alright, that's enough. Extracting this much at once is sufficient. If you keep sucking it in, it will affect the other party's energy and spirit." The Herrscher of Consciousness, who was watching the chocolate bar gradually take shape, suddenly stopped Chen Luo.

Negative emotions and negative energy are also part of the human body. If too much is lost at once, one will feel mentally exhausted, listless, and other negative conditions.

This is also why the Herald of Knowledge did not extract all the killing intent and malevolent energy from Shen He's body in one go.

On the one hand, fresh food tastes best, and on the other hand, extracting it all would cause considerable harm to Shenhe.

"Oh." Chen Luo nodded, then disconnected.

After Chen Luo severed the connection, the black chocolate bar mixed with blood red in Chen Luo's hand began to tremble, trying to return to its owner's body.

"Eat it quickly. Otherwise, if this thing returns to its original body, all our efforts will be wasted," the Herald of Knowledge urged.

Upon hearing the words of the Herrscher of Knowledge, Chen Luo immediately stuffed the chocolate bar into his mouth.

"Ugh!" The moment Chen Luo swallowed that murderous aura and malevolent energy, his eyes widened.

This murderous aura and malevolent energy were completely different from the negative emotions Chen Luo had consumed for the first time in Mondstadt.

The difference between the two is like the difference between a large pot of stew and a refined dish.

The former couldn't taste anything at all; they just felt mentally shocked.

However, after consuming Shen He's murderous aura and malevolent energy, one can sense a very strong spiritual imprint belonging to Shen He.

Negative emotions are also part of a person, even murderous and malevolent energies.

Therefore, to some extent, Chen Luo's absorption of Shen He's killing intent and malevolent aura was also equivalent to...

cough cough...

Moreover, and this is especially important, Shen He was born with the destiny of the Lonely Star and the Calamity Star, and killing intent and evil energy were inseparable from her throughout her life. Therefore, the Shen He component was even stronger in this killing intent and evil energy.

"How was it? Feeling great, huh? For us inner demons, the most suitable development path is actually to rely on a strong person to continuously devour the negative energy and negative emotions of the other party, rather than widely devouring the negative emotions of ordinary people." The Herrscher of Knowledge said while biting into the chocolate bar that Chen Luo gave her.

"W-Don't talk to me yet. Shen He's murderous aura and malevolent energy are quite strong. I need to digest it for a while," Chen Luo said, rubbing his forehead with his hand.
