Their commission was suspicious.

Chen Luo needs to go to Longmen later, so I'll take this opportunity to film a short video to threaten Chen.

And who's better at threatening Chen than Talulah?

"Is that so? It seems she's been through a lot... Can you really cure Oripathy?" Talulah asked nostalgically.

"Why would I lie to you? Come on, keep filming."

“Oh.” Talulah did not refuse after learning the truth about the video.

Chen Luo seems like a good person, and his intentions are good; he wants to help Chen treat Oripathy.

Although there was no way to confirm whether this information was accurate, Taluna was willing to believe Chen Luo this once.

Although Talulah didn't mind having Oripathy, she knew that Lungmen was extremely hostile to infected people.

Chen Luo held a selfie stick in one hand and embraced Talulah in the other, then placed the sword against Talulah's neck.

“Chen, let me tell you, I’ve been kidnapped by the Reunion Movement, and you… I forget if you’re the older sister or the younger sister, Talulah, are in my hands now! If you don’t send money to the Reunion Movement, I’m going to kill her! No money? Fine, you can beg me to treat your Oripathy. If you beg me, I’ll release Talulah… Let me treat your Oripathy, okay? I’m really doing this for your own good. Why won’t you let me treat your Oripathy? Why?! I don’t care, I want you to beg me to treat your Oripathy, or I’ll kill her! Chen, you don’t want Talulah either…”

Chen Luo's threats gradually veered in an abnormal direction, and at a rapid pace.

Talulah couldn't help but glance at Chen Luo out of the corner of her eye.

Why does Dr. Chen Luo seem so...hysterical when he's treating Chen's Oripathy?

What exactly did Chen do to Chen Luo?

[He's not posting requests he's been given? This Chen is really wicked!]

Chapter 1545 The Infinite Serpent and the Undying Black Serpent with Overlapping Character Designs

"I feel like ants are crawling all over my body. It's awful to see the commissions but not be able to accept them. Talulah, your sister did something to wrong me, how are you going to make it up to me?" Chen Luo said weakly.

"...Help you fight?" Talulah thought about it and realized that all she could offer now was her own strength.

"Help me fight? Forget it. You'd be better off playing the flute for me, at least then I can watch the snakes dance," Chen Luo said, fiddling with the flute in his hand.

Does Chen Luo seem to lack someone to fight for him? What Chen Luo lacks is someone to play the flute for him.

Playing the flute requires both hands, which creates a paradox.

Picking up the flute, I cannot embrace Mebius.

If you put down the flute, Mebius will kill Chen Luo.

"Playing the flute? I've never learned it, but I can." Talulah recalled the scene of Chen Luo playing the flute, which made the immortal black snake jump into the glass bottle on its own, and seemed to have thought of something as well.

Can you control a black snake by learning to play the flute?

“No need to learn, this flute comes with master-level skills. You can try playing it if you’re interested. Don’t worry, I’ve already washed it.” Chen Luo tossed the flute to Talulah.

This flute has a built-in cleaning function.

"Enjoy your time with the immortal black serpent while you can, because I'll be taking him away soon. In the meantime, you can use this flute to humiliate the immortal black serpent to your heart's content," Chen Luo said.

"Th-thank you." Talulah stared blankly at the flute in her hand.

After saying that, Chen Luo happily took the video in his hand and went to find Mebius.

Then he would use the video to threaten Chen, and see Chen's eager yet reluctant expression.

However, since Mebius needs to follow Chen Luo around all the time, he can't go too far, otherwise Mebius will look at him like he's trash.

But don't you think that's even more exciting?

"...You know what, you really shouldn't say it."

That's what they say, but they can't say these things in front of Mebius.

"So, are you interested in studying this immortal black serpent?" Chen Luo asked Mebius.

“I’m somewhat interested, though not as much as I’m interested in you. I always feel this little thing isn’t as amazing as the Herrscher of Knowledge. But as a product of another world, it would be helpful to study it.” Mebius looked at the immortal black snake in the bottle, which was being burned by flames and suffering agonizing pain.

The differences between worlds are greater than the differences between Einstein and a dog.

Even if what was given to Mebius was an Originium Bug, Mebius might still be interested, let alone the immortal black serpent unique to this world.

The claim that the immortal black serpent represents the will of Ursus may be an exaggeration, but he is indeed a genuine, ancient will that has existed in Ursus for thousands of years.

"The ability to possess other people's souls... it sounds a bit like possession, perhaps this method can be used to leave the paradise of the past... Hmm, why are you looking at me like that?" As Mebius said this, he saw Chen Luo looking at him with a strange expression.

"No, it's nothing." Chen Luo shook his head.

[Seriously? Seriously? Alicia and the others have already become Honkai consciousness, and you're still here thinking about how to leave Paradise? Your version is way outdated!]

Chen Luo admitted that the term "humanized plugin" might be a bit harsh, but that was indeed the meaning.

According to the rules of the Werewolf game in the Paradise of the Past, five people were selected as agents to act on behalf of Chen Luo and fulfill the duties of the Collapsed Consciousness.

Mebius was not among these five people.

The decision to become a proxy was made by Mebius's original self. But how could the original Mebius, knowing that Chen Luo was the member playing the werewolf game, possibly allow his memory self to become a proxy? What's the point of participating in a game that's bound to be lost?

While becoming an agent of the Honkai consciousness is a novel experience, one should first consider whether the relationship between Mebius and the memory Mebius is harmonious.

Harmony my foot! It's already a miracle the two of them didn't start fighting when they met.

"To be clear, I did not intend to escape from the Paradise of the Dead through this method; I am merely still interested in this research topic." However, when Möbius remembered that he had already left the Paradise of the Dead, he changed his tone and said.

"Yes, I know, you don't need to explain to me."

"I'm serious!"

“I know, I believe you. Even if I don’t believe in myself, I will still believe in you.” Chen Luo met Möbius’s gaze, his eyes filled with sincerity.

"..." For some reason, Mebius, who was being stared at by Chen Luo, felt a little annoyed.

"In short, the immortal black serpent overlaps with my attributes in some ways, and its research value is quite high," Möbius concluded.

Mebius can be immortal, and so can the immortal black serpent. Mebius's artificially collapsed state is a serpent, and the immortal black serpent is also a serpent.

“But before I study him, could you please keep him in check? While this bottle might keep him from running away, research can't just be about observation; proper dissection and sectioning are also necessary. So, let's anthropomorphize him,” Möbius said.

According to Möbius's research, people who are puppetized by Chen Luo will not have their characteristics changed as a result.

Moreover, the immortal black serpent had already undergone a drastic change when Chen Luo slashed it into a snake, so a little more change wouldn't matter.

"No, this person is disgusting..." Chen Luo glanced at the immortal black snake with disgust.

"Come on, hurry up."

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"Oh." Chen Luo nodded reluctantly.

Anyway, there are already enough villains in the puppet, and just letting the immortal black snake burn like this is not a good way to make use of it. It's better to squeeze out as much value as possible from it.

If Chen Luo remembers correctly, Duke Kosichä's territory and property have not yet been plundered by other high-ranking officials in Ursus.

After all, the nature of Koschei, the immortal black serpent, was not a secret to some high-ranking officials in Ursus.

Although they didn't fully understand it, that didn't prevent them from knowing about it.

If the immortal black serpent were still a will, it would be more troublesome to turn it into a puppet. But since it was cut into a conceptual entity with one strike, it can be turned into a puppet directly.

One-tenth of a tube of orange juice was poured directly into the bottle, and the immortal black snake slowly began to transform into a puppet. Although the immortal black snake seemed to have discovered something, it was unable to stop the process.

"Doctor, Doctor, I've successfully invited Miss Alina to join the cult!" The pangolin excitedly ran over.

"Hmm? You've got some skills. No coercion or anything, right?"

"of course not."

If the pangolins were forced to do this, they would have already poisoned the infected camps.

"Join the religion? What? Join the religion? The River God Cult?" Talulah walked over after getting familiar with the flute.

The River God Cult was actually quite well-known in the infected camp, but because the followers of the River God Cult did nothing unusual on a daily basis, and there were no riots or fights, it didn't seem like a cult, so Talulah never bothered with it.

Now that she heard that Alina also wanted to join the church, Talulah began to show more concern for her.

"Don't worry, I'm just trying it out," Alina said with a smile.

"Why would anyone believe in some river god? It sounds ridiculous. If there really are gods in the world, why have they never cared about the infected?" Talulah wasn't interested in this so-called church.

"I feel offended," Chen Luo said resentfully.

"what?"

"Because I am that river god."

"This... I'm sorry, I didn't know. So... you really are a god?" Talulah looked at Chen Luo curiously.

“Talulah, you’ve spent some time in Yan Kingdom, so you should know that there are giant beasts there. So-called gods are just more powerful beings… Oh, no, those gods born from faith are indeed fundamentally different from humans. I just happen to possess some powers that seem to be only available to gods. That’s why I’m called the River God.”

"So there's no need to be too afraid of these gods unless you can't defeat them. If a god really appears in front of you and you really can't defeat him, it's okay to just have faith in him for a while."

"Besides, it's not like I'm ignoring the infected. I'm here to help them now, aren't I? The gods are so busy, they can't always receive a distress call," Chen Luo said.

"Take me to the infected camp; perhaps I can be of some help."

This camp of the Integration Movement was perfect for Chen Luo to complete his mission as a savior spreading hope.

"Okay. Let's go then." Talulah nodded.

"But shouldn't you wash up before you get back to camp?" Chen Luo pointed to the tattered clothes on Talulah and Alina.

"Hiss, it's a bit cold." Before Chen Luo mentioned this, Talulah and Alina were still immersed in the joy of rebirth, but as soon as Chen Luo reminded them, they keenly realized just how "cold" it was to be soaking wet in winter.

Moreover, Alina's arms had been severed, and her clothes were now covered in blood.

"Come with me. I'll prepare some clean clothes for you." Chen Luo snapped his fingers, and a portal of light appeared in front of them.

This portal of light leads directly to the world of dolls.

When Alina and Talulah stepped through the portal filled with curiosity, they found themselves in an extremely warm place, bathed in sunlight.

The sunlight here is real sunlight.

Chen Luo led Talulah and Alina to the Fire-Chasing Moth within the Golden Earth, and then asked:

"You must be exhausted, both physically and mentally. Would you two like to eat first, take a shower first, or..."

Chapter 1546 The Sunlight That Frostnova and the Yeti Squad Couldn't Stop Reaching For It

"Talulah, what's this... outfit?" Frostnova looked at Talulah's attire with surprise.

Although Frostnova knew she should be more surprised that the figure Talulah had carried away was now perfectly intact in front of her, the clothes Talulah was wearing were indeed rather strange.

Lula was wearing a military green coat, covering herself up completely.

That's so weird.

Even your own father, even someone with the old-fashioned aesthetic of a patriot, wouldn't wear clothes like this, right?

"..." Talulah remained expressionless.

If her clothes hadn't been taken directly to be washed, Talulah would never have worn such clothes.

That's really strange.

While it is indeed warm, it is also unsightly.

While Talulah is indeed a pragmatist, isn't this a bit too pragmatic?

Tantalura felt that her original military uniform was already quite warm, and she didn't need this strange outfit.

Frostnova reluctantly shifted her gaze from Talulah and looked at the familiar figure.

Frostnova wasn't actually familiar with Alina, or rather, Alina was very low-key in the infected community, so low-key that people would think she was just an ordinary teacher, which was what Alina wanted.

"How is this possible?" Froststar asked in disbelief.

Equally unbelievable as Frostnova is a medic.

"Didn't she just have both arms severed and lose a lot of blood? Why does she look like nothing happened now?"

Someone did see Talulah carrying a severely wounded person back from afar. However, after the medic was called in, Talulah left with the person, looking lost.

Although they didn't examine him closely, the medic was certain that the man was basically beyond saving; he was already deathly cold.
