Their commission was suspicious.

However, Gretchen did not do it on purpose. She was influenced by Qian Jie when she was close to him, and that's how she created that painting.

It was because of that painting that Gretchen was imprisoned in the deepest place.

"Luo, can you hide your Imaginary Number Mark? I can't see you anymore." After hesitating for a moment, Su asked Chen Luo with her eyes closed.

"No way. From now on, no matter where you are and pretend to be a master with your eyes closed, you'll have to open your eyes when you meet me!" Chen Luo refused.

Ha, so you used to pretend to be an expert with your eyes closed every day, now you've crashed and burned, haven't you?

"...I'll get used to it."

"I mean, is it so hard for you to open your eyes and talk to me?" Chen Luo complained.

Shouldn't you say "I understand" now?

So Su's "bad habit" of disliking looking people in the eye had been there from the beginning.

Chapter 1425 Su: Luo, it's such a waste of your talent that you're not a soldier.

In the end, Su left the operating table with her eyes open.

Su hasn't fully developed the bad habit of pretending to be a master with his eyes closed, which he has later developed, because his mental strength isn't as high as it is in the later stages.

After Su was taken off the operating table and sat weakly in the wheelchair prepared by Chen Luo, she looked at the several ice coffins placed next to her.

This was the view Su saw before she entered the specially designed operating room and lay down on the operating table. Su had thought she would be one of them.

These ice coffins are for members whose fusion surgery was about to fail during Chen Luo's procedure. Once Chen Luo sensed that a person was about to fail, he would immediately use his Fifth Divine Key to freeze them and place them in the ice coffin.

You could say that every one of those ice coffins was a loser, but each one also had the chance to be resurrected.

It is precisely because the losers do not require resuscitation that Chen Luo was able to perform the fusion surgery so quickly.

Previously, Chen Luo would perform three fusion surgeries in one morning; now he performs five surgeries in two hours, including two successful cases.

Because successful individuals do not require resuscitation, while unsuccessful individuals are frozen directly and also do not require resuscitation, a lot of time is saved, although the subsequent handling is somewhat troublesome.

"You'll probably have to work hard these next couple of days." Su said to Chen Luo with a touch of reluctance, glancing at the fully booked schedule of surgical personnel on the wall.

"Hmm? You feel sorry for me? Then wear women's clothes for me just once?"

"..."

"Okay, sorry, don't go complaining to Mebius. Although I'm doing about 20 surgeries a day now, the good news is that the success rate of this fusion surgery is actually quite low. Implanting the right Honkai Beast gene is the first step, and we can tell whether it's successful at the first step. So if we calculate based on the probability of complete failure, 20 surgeries can be completed in just 200 minutes."

“…This is not something to be happy about,” Su said after a moment of silence.

"But that's the reality. The success rate of fusion surgery is low to begin with, and even for qualified individuals, the success rate is still low. In addition, the Moth Chaser was attacked by the Eighth Herrscher, so there are very few disqualified individuals left who can undergo fusion surgery. So after this busy day, things will probably be easier," Chen Luo said.

Even a qualified candidate who has already fallen into a coma can undergo fusion surgery, as long as you are not afraid that the other party will kill you after the fusion surgery is successful.

Because Moth of Fire discovered that the Eighth Herrscher can actually control people who have fallen into a state of narcolepsy due to the Eighth Herrscher's abilities, especially those in dreams outside that special city.

On the contrary, the fusion warriors who were searching for the Eighth Herrscher in that special city seemed to be unaffected.

Those eligible individuals were undoubtedly outside that special city before becoming Fusion Warriors. Therefore, once they underwent surgery to become psychic Fusion Warriors, they might be controlled by the Eighth Herrscher to wreak havoc among the Moths of Flame.

Moths drawn to flames cannot afford to take that risk, so no one even suggested this plan.

"Five surgeries... no, six surgeries, two of them were successful. Your success rate for fusion surgeries has improved quite a bit." Su looked at the checkmark on the right side of the second-ranked item on the schedule and picked up a pen to put a checkmark next to her own name.

"It's all about luck. Fusion surgery is 30% opportunity, 70% hard work, and the remaining 990% is all luck." Chen Luo shrugged, not taking credit for himself.

“But no matter what, it’s really a bit difficult for you to have most of the eligible individuals undergo fusion surgery,” Su continued.

"But who made me the only one among all those skilled in fusion surgery who could use the Fifth Divine Key, and freeze them just right without killing them?" Chen Luo said, playing with the Fifth Divine Key in his hand.

"Your accuracy in using the Fifth Divine Key is indeed very high. In fact, I heard that your compatibility with the Sixth Divine Key is also very good?"

"I guess it's a gift from heaven." Chen Luo shook the Imaginary Count Mark on the back of his hand.

"Then it's a waste of your talent not to become a warrior. Perhaps you have the adaptability to all the Divine Keys. If Vervi wakes up and finds out that the Fifth Divine Key, which she created to annihilate life, was used by you as a tool to save people, she would be very happy."

Sue and Vervi have met before. Although they are not very close yet, Sue knows Vervi's philosophy on weapon design.

“I agree with the second half of the sentence, and Vilvi will indeed be very happy, but the first half... are you serious?” Chen Luo looked at Su suspiciously.

Chen Luo was referring to Su's line: "It's a waste of your talent not to be a soldier."

“Of course I’m serious, but it might be a waste of your talents for you to become a soldier,” Su said, glancing at the fusion surgery candidates who were sleeping in the ice coffins in the operating room.

These eligible individuals still have a chance to survive after being unsealed. Each failure represents a higher chance of success next time. Perhaps one or two of these failed surgeries will become fusion warriors again.

Even if Chen Luo becomes a fusion warrior, his combat power might not be much stronger than Kevin's. However, if Chen Luo becomes a scientific research talent, he might create several Kevins.

Moreover, Su also knew that the higher-ups of the Fire Moth would not allow Chen Luo to go to the battlefield.

It is precisely because Chen Luo can give them the opportunity for risk-free immortality that the higher-ups of the Fire Moth are so arrogant towards him. Even if Chen Luo defeats one of the higher-ups, there are still many more to protect him.

If Chen Luo were just a fusion warrior, even if he were an exceptional fusion warrior only slightly weaker than Kevin and the others, and dared to raise his fist against the higher-ups of the Firemoth, he would be imprisoned in the deepest place.

Even after the Herrscher of Binding disaster, when Dr. Mei held power over the Firemoths, those high-ranking officials still wielded considerable influence.

For example, Alicia wanted to nominate the remaining 13 Fusion Warriors as the Thirteen Heroes of Fire Chaser, but the higher-ups disagreed and only allowed the formation of the Five Heroes of Fire Chaser.

They are Kevin, Alicia, Sue, Hua, and Vervi.

It's understandable that Gretchen is just a child, but Qianjie is too irritable, which is also not good.

Pado? It wasn't because she was too weak or because she was in logistics, but because the person who made the decision had never even heard of the name Pado Felice.

Sakura had interacted with some of the decision-makers during the early power struggles of the Firemoth because she always did the dirty work...

But even Eden wouldn't work, which is quite incomprehensible.

The final reason given? Because... the moth that chases the flame doesn't need people without a future.

It must be said that the higher-ups at Moth Chaser... have a really good eye for people.

In short, Chen Luo's privilege of acting with impunity most of the time in the Fire Moth was due to his identity as a fusion surgeon.

In this situation, even if Chen Luo beats up all the high-ranking members, he will still be safe until he completes the fusion surgery for all the Fire Moth high-ranking members.

Who could resist the allure of becoming a Fusion Warrior?

Especially in this dangerous era.

Su left, and left completely, because Su, who had become a mental-sensory fusion warrior, needed to go to a pre-arranged location for a short training session before preparing for a mission.

After Su left, Chen Luo glanced at the fifth divine key in his hand, put it aside, and then took out another divine key—the Void Treasury.

"The rest is up to you." Chen Luo tossed the Void Treasury in his hand, and the next moment, an entity exactly like Chen Luo appeared next to him.

Sleeping can be done with ordinary dolls created by Chen Luo, but for high-difficulty procedures like fusion surgery, if Chen Luo doesn't give the dolls a soul, then forget about it.

However, adding a soul to a doll for this reason is a very irresponsible idea, so Chen Luo could only let Void Treasury take over for now.

What appears next to Chen Luo now is a subprogram of the Void Treasury, but it is sufficient to handle the fusion surgery and control the Fifth Divine Key.

Even if the Void Treasury after exceeding its limit is a subroutine, its strength is about the same as the original Void Treasury.

Chen Luo still has more than a dozen surgeries to go, but how can he possibly have that many times to perform them himself?

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to perform the surgery on Su himself, Chen Luo would have run away long ago.

Chen Luo's schedule was quite full in the afternoon.

However... as a staunch collector, Chen Luo wanted to collect all of humanity in the entire pre-civilization, let alone the 13 Heroes. The feeling of having all 13 Heroes lying on his operating table and being at his mercy was indeed quite good.

Even if you are the ultimate, invincible, fucking powerful psycho-sensory fusion warrior, you still have to obediently lie on the operating table.

Sigh, I wonder when I'll be able to get Alicia to lie obediently on the operating table and be operated on by Chen Luo.

To be honest, you really are like Möbius right now.

"Möbius it is, after all, it's not a bad description, at least not entirely bad. Sigh, you become like those you associate with, I have no choice but to accept it."

The name Möbius has become more than just a name; it's a synonym for a demonic scientist.

Chen Luo isn't a demon scientist, but he is a collector.

In a sense, Chen Luo's kind of collecting party might be even worse.

After all, Mebius only wanted to study Chen Luo, while Chen Luo not only wanted to study Mebius, but also all 13 heroes.

[All 13 heroes? You beast, you even went after Gretchen!]

"Oh, right, Gretsch... it seems like Gretsch is going to have an accident too. Oh well, just keep an eye on it. Although I really want Gretsch to live an ordinary life, that's obviously impossible."

Gretchen is actually quite important. Putting aside the fact that her life as an ordinary person isn't particularly good, Gretchen is the executor of the Ark Project...

"Let's think of a way to fool the world." Chen Luo looked up at the sky.

Just before the knocking sounded and the next surgeon was about to enter, Chen Luo vanished from his spot, leaving behind a figure of Chen Luo constructed from the Void Treasury to handle the rest.

……

"What lies beyond this world? Tell me in detail."

As soon as Chen Luo returned to the bar, he saw Xiao Jiu talking to the magical conch shell.

"You still haven't asked?" Chen Luo looked at Xiao Jiu and the broken conch shell in her hand with some surprise.

This conch shell is good, but its only downside is that it's terrible.

I've gone through over 1000 cycles [two weeks], asked the same question nearly 1 million times, and this damn conch shell still hasn't given me an answer.

"This is yours, not mine. You're asking me? It's not like I don't want him to tell me. But I have learned something interesting," Xiao Jiu said, tossing the conch shell in her hand.

"What interesting thing? How did you find out?"

"From this conch shell. You know, even if this conch shell doesn't get the answers you want and often spouts nonsense, there's often some useful information in that nonsense. For example... the agents know information about outside the world, but some worlds don't even have agents. So if a problem arises within a world, they'll borrow one or two agents from other worlds to solve it. There might be some exchange of benefits in this process, but the magical conch shell didn't say anything," Xiao Jiu said.

Although most of the answers from this magical conch shell are nonsense and cannot provide the questioner with the answers he wants, it cannot be denied that some of the nonsense is also of informational value.

"Is there anything else?" Chen Luo asked.

"Also, the world beyond is vast, and there are many things within it. Although this sounds like a truism, it does have some value, doesn't it?"

“That’s true… but I really didn’t know that the magical conch could collect information in this way.”

Even if Chen Luo knew, he wouldn't care, since he didn't have time to waste on the magical conch.

Chen Luo doesn't have the courage to spend 1000 reincarnations playing with the magical conch like Xiao Jiu did.

"You don't understand your own things?"

"I don't know much about it, or rather, of all the props I know the least about, it's this magical conch shell, because I've never used it before."

“That’s true. Anyway, you have plenty of people under you, so there’s no need to waste your time on this.” Xiao Jiu nodded.

Xiao Jiu has some basic understanding of Chen Luo's puppet world. After all, Xiao Jiu, as a provider of faith power, naturally knows that Chen Luo is collecting faith power everywhere in order to save the previous civilization.

With enough people, if each person asks for a day, we'll eventually find out the answer. Why do I have to do it myself? Wouldn't it be better to just have my subordinates do it?

Xiao Jiu thought so too, but what could she do? She was the one at the very bottom.

At least that's the case in bars.

"Beep beep!"

Chen Luo's talent panel suddenly popped up and then began to vibrate.

After glancing at the name displayed on the talent panel, Chen Luo took out his phone and answered the call.

The talent panel and group network performed quite well in helping Chen Luo answer the phone.

Because this is all I can do...

"Hello, Your Majesty." Chen Luo's voice was sickeningly sweet, making Xiao Jiu, who was standing next to him, feel a chill.

Chen Luo, you're really acting like a son these days!

"..." Chen Luo glared fiercely at Xiao Jiu.

"Am I wrong?" Xiao Jiu's expression seemed to say that.

"Little Luo, you have such a sweet tongue." Luo Li's voice came from the other end of the phone, and there was a hint of excitement in her voice, perhaps because she had encountered something happy.
