Their commission was suspicious.

This is a versatile skill! It can provide a basic boost to most abilities.

……

"Wow!" After Chen Luo defeated the Honkai Emperor and emerged from the war zone, a bolt of lightning grazed his body and struck the ground, startling him.

"What's going on... Holy crap, what's happening?" When Chen Luo looked up and saw the source of the lightning, he was shocked.

High in the sky, a girl with lightning crackling around her body flew steadily through the air, with a huge lightning-shaped half-wing floating on her left side.

Endless bolts of lightning descended from the sky, proclaiming the wrath of the Queen of Thunder.

"I only disappeared for a few minutes, how come Raiden Mei suddenly appeared in her Herrscher form? Kiana was injured? And then Raiden Mei was traumatized?" The current situation shocked Chen Luo.

Although it's possible to adjust the war field so that no matter how much time passes inside, only one second passes outside, Chen Luo felt it was unnecessary, so he didn't do that.

Chen Luo immediately observed the surrounding environment and then saw Bronya lying unconscious against the wall with a large crater behind her, as well as the heavily armored bunny struggling to stay alive.

Then, at a glance, they saw Kiana, who was standing on the ground with a shotgun, blood dripping from the corner of her mouth, and a huge charred wound on her front.

"Sure enough, I knew it was Kiana who was injured, but... why do the charred wounds on Kiana's body look like they were inflicted by Raiden Mei? Is it just my imagination?" Chen Luo was still completely bewildered.

"Aro, you're still alive?" Kiana exclaimed in surprise.

A person who suddenly appears on the battlefield will naturally attract the attention of others on the battlefield, especially since there are only 4 people on this battlefield.

"What's going on? How did Mei suddenly become a Herrscher?" Chen Luo immediately ran over after seeing Kiana notice him, asking as he ran.

Judging from the current situation, Raiden Mei is clearly not someone we can easily approach, so we have no choice but to go find Kiana.

"Heavy Armor Rabbit!" Chen Luo also called for reinforcements.

Under Chen Luo's control, the Heavy Bunny dragged the unconscious Bronya and flew towards this direction.

Just as Chen Luo was about to reach Kiana, a bolt of lightning struck in front of him, stopping him in his tracks.

"Hahahaha, Aro, you're still alive?! That means you successfully killed that Honkai Emperor? Very good, as expected of my other half! Hahaha!" Raiden Mei, who was usually gentle and quiet, laughed wildly in the sky.

He has a slightly wicked and arrogant look to him.

Yeah, and there's also chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)!

"What's going on with Kiana? How did Mei suddenly become a Herrscher? And why is she acting so chuunibyou?"

While asking the question, Chen Luo also quietly moved towards Kiana, but the sudden appearance of purple lightning made him give up the idea.

"Ahem, I don't know why Mei became a chuunibyou, but she became a Herrscher because of you," Kiana said after coughing twice.

"Huh? Because of me? You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Didn't I tell you all to go to the TV station and wait for me? How did you all start fighting?" Chen Luo didn't dare admit that he was the one who did it.

“That’s what they say, but who would believe you could kill that Honkai Emperor? We all thought you did it out of a spirit of self-sacrifice. Then, not long after you disappeared, Mei woke up and assumed you were dead,” Kiana explained.

"I may have disappeared, but why do you have absolutely no faith in me? Why do you think I'm dead, instead of the other person dying?"

Am I really that bad at this?

"Half-body! Look at me! Who gave you permission to speak to other women! Didn't you say that if this Eye of God loses its light, it means its master is dead?"

A bolt of lightning struck Chen Luo's side, interrupting his conversation with Kiana.

Floating high in the sky, the Herrscher Mei, exuding queenly demeanor, coldly stared at Chen Luo as she descended, holding up the Eye of God.

"Could it be that you lied to me?" After saying this, the lightning around Raiden Mei became even more dazzling.

"..." Had he mentioned this to Raiden Mei? It seemed he had.

“Mei, you seem to have misunderstood something. Death is indeed a way to make the Eye of God go blank, but it’s not the only way. Being separated from the Eye of God by a world is also a way to make it lose its light. The skill I just used is similar to this method.”

Chen Luo, located within the realm of war, is no longer contacted by the Eye of God outside, so they mistakenly believe that he is dead, and naturally, he also loses his radiance.

However, since this item was drawn from the talent panel, Chen Luo can still use wind elemental power even without contacting the Eye of God.

So this is probably, maybe, seemingly... really my own fault.

"So since it's a misunderstanding, Mei, could you go back first and let the other Mei come out?" Chen Luo tried to reason with Herrscher Mei.

"Oh, you hate me that much? You don't like me because I have power, but you value that coward more?" When she was about a meter away from the ground, Raiden Mei stopped. Half of her lightning wings trembled slightly, and countless bolts of lightning descended from the sky, striking Chen Luo directly.

Fortunately, Chen Luo dodged quickly and avoided the lightning.

"No, that's not it. You two are both Mei, I know that, but... it's not good for you to keep coming out."

The Herrscher and the Herrscher personality are actually quite confusing things. In fact, it is undeniable that the Herrscher personality is Raiden Mei herself.

Once the Herrscher personality acknowledges the original consciousness, the Herrscher personality will naturally dissipate, allowing Raiden Mei to become her true self.

At least that's the case with Raiden Mei.

In the abandoned Changkong City in 2017, Raiden Mei voluntarily became the Herrscher of Thunder again. At that time, the Herrscher personality identified with Mei's personality and eventually dissipated.

However, it is not advisable to treat these Herrscher personalities kindly. If they do not acknowledge their original personality, they should be subjected to severe social punishment.

"Hahaha! As expected of the half-body I approve of, unlike that white fur ball next to me who said something like 'I should get out of my own body.' However, I'm still very dissatisfied with your answer."

"I feel great now, controlling the power of lightning and possessing boundless strength, so I can naturally protect you better. You'll never again risk your life for that coward. Isn't that... wonderful?"

A massive bolt of lightning gathered in Raiden Mei's palm, signifying her power as the Herrscher of Thunder.

"..."

Wait a minute! Recognition of the Herrscher's personality?

Damn it! Don't tell me that the "approval of Raiden Mei" I received after completing the "Omnipotent Traveler" quest issued by Raiden Mei is actually the approval of Herrscher Mei, right?

"In short, I can't explain it to you. There are too many demons and monsters in this world. It's too dangerous to exist as a Herrscher. So I advise you to go back quickly, or I will have to take coercive measures."

Chen Luo is genuinely acting in Mei's best interest this time, after all, there are quite a few Herrschers in this world who can tear apart a Herrscher with their bare hands.

Especially Mei, who is a half-finished Herrscher.

"Half-body, I acknowledge your omnipotence, but you also have to admit my current power. What do you have to fight me with? Just obediently submit to me! Hahahaha!" Herrscher Mei laughed again.

Moreover, this time Raiden Mei's gaze towards Chen Luo was full of aggression, making Chen Luo feel extremely awkward.

"Xiao Shi, can you help me beat her up?" Chen Luo asked in his mind.

“Unless it’s in the midst of war, I don’t recommend taking action. And to be honest, it would be a bit of a stretch to fight her, since I’m just an avatar with one-tenth the strength of my main body. I just beat up a Honkai Emperor, and my Honkai energy is almost depleted. I haven’t recovered yet.” Xiao Xiaoshi shook her head.

Because it is Xiao Xiaoshi here, Xiao Xiaoshi does not dare to absorb Honkai energy as recklessly and openly as the original body.

If Xiao Shi were to fight a Honkai Emperor now, she could barely manage to do it again, but fighting a Herrscher would be quite a challenge.

"I just used War Domain, how can the cooldown time be that fast?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at the Herrscher of Knowledge.

In fact, there is no cooldown time in the realm of war, but Chen Luo's physical abilities are incomparable to those of angels, so there is a cooldown time for Chen Luo.

You can force yourself to use it, but I really don't recommend it.

"Alright, I finally got this item, and now I have to use it." Chen Luo sighed.

Chen Luo could escape if he wanted to, but escaping wouldn't solve the problem.

"Mei, let's talk this over. I'll give you one last chance. Go back now, or I really will resort to violence." Chen Luo clenched his fist.

"Violence? Then show me what violence is! But if you lose half of your body, you'll lose everything, including yourself."

"Fine, you're finished. I'm warning you, you're finished. I'm going to play this recording over and over again for you to see!" Chen Luo glared fiercely at Raiden Mei.

"Come out, Raiden Mei!" Chen Luo suddenly pulled out a card from somewhere and held it up high.

The moment the card shattered, the thunder that resounded within a 1-kilometer radius froze completely for a split second.

Then, a surge of lightning descended from the sky, as if it were thunder that shattered the darkness.

As everything dissipated, a black-haired girl with two horns on her head and a long sword on her shoulder appeared beside Chen Luo.

Upon seeing the strangely familiar-looking girl, alarm bells rang in Herrscher Mei's mind.

Sensing the other's presence, Herrscher Mei felt as if her power to control lightning was being suppressed.

"Boss, beat her up!" Chen Luo took a step back, hiding behind the other party and pointing at Herrscher Mei.

"Hmm, so... you summoned me here just so I'd beat myself up?" The newcomer glanced at Chen Luo, who was hiding behind him.

Raiden Mei, the Herrscher of Thunder, reporting for duty!

Chen Luo summoned Raiden Mei, the future Raiden Mei.

The item that summoned her was a random item that Chen Luo obtained after completing Raiden Mei's mission.

【Mei, Save Me】(One-time use item): Can summon the Herrscher of Thunder in her prime - Raiden Mei to assist in battle.

(Note: You can definitely summon her, but whether she will obey you depends on your relationship level with Raiden Mei.)

Although this card doesn't give the other person complete control, making Chen Luo feel somewhat restricted, he felt that the intimacy between him and Raiden Mei should be sufficient.

Most importantly, Raiden Mei herself should be able to see how critical this moment is.

"This isn't yourself, this is yourself from your dark past. You should be thinking of ending this kind of cringeworthy history as soon as possible, right, especially since the situation is very critical right now," Chen Luo quickly explained.

This is Chen Luo's trump card.

It's an ace up, at least for now.

This Herrscher of Thunder is different from the Herrscher Mei in front of us. She is a true Herrscher who is truly recognized by the Honkai and has contained the Honkai energy of the entire Changkong City within herself.

Rather than being forced to become a half-finished Herrscher because of the Herrscher core implanted in them.

Moreover, after countless years of growth, beating up my former self would be as easy as beating a child.

Chen Luo knew that the other party could distinguish between what was important and what was urgent.

"No." The Herrscher of Thunder shook her head.

"???"

Chapter 75 Raiden Mei: Come at me head-on!

"Yeah, yeah, give him a good beating... Wait, what did you say?"

For a moment, Chen Luo even doubted that he had heard correctly.

“I said no,” the Herrscher of Thunder repeated.

"Summoning your future self to beat yourself up—that's just impossible, isn't it?"

"But, my dear boss, can't you tell the situation?" Chen Luo looked at the Herrscher of Thunder in disbelief.

"I hate being called 'Big Sister.' Call me Mei." The Herrscher of Thunder looked at Chen Luo coldly.

"Mei, the situation is very critical right now. I can't beat her. Kiana is also seriously injured, and Bronya has fallen into a coma. Only you can be everyone's guardian angel," Chen Luo said anxiously.

"It's better not to. This is your own business. If I interfere, both you and I will regret it later." The Herrscher of Thunder shook her head again.

"Have you said enough? There's a limit to ignoring people, isn't there?" Mei, the Herrscher with one wing, who was floating in the air, said somewhat angrily.

"Shut up." The Herrscher of Thunder glanced coldly at her former self.

"!!!" Herrscher Mei subconsciously took a step back.

"As for Mei, whether she'll regret it or not, we'll only know after we've done it. The problem is, I can't beat her right now. If you don't step in now..."

"Not only will I not help you beat her up, I won't even help you. I'll lift the suppression of her Herrscher of Thunder authority in a moment."

"Huh?" Chen Luo was caught off guard by this sudden turn of events.

"Because if I actually make a move, this one-time trial card will truly disappear, but if I don't make a move, this one-time item can be used again next time," the Herrscher of Thunder said coldly.

"You know this is a one-time use item? And that one-time use items have such hidden rules?" Chen Luo was somewhat astonished.

"nonsense."

"Oh dear, I'm so happy that you're thinking of me so much and saving me the props, but I doubt I can beat the other guy." Chen Luo was on the verge of tears.

While Raiden Mei does indeed give off a sense of being thrifty and not wasteful, the key issue is that she's not using her abilities in the right place right now.

Is now the time to save money?

"Your Honkai energy adaptability is already over 100%, right?" Herrscher of Thunder suddenly asked.

"You know that too?" Chen Luo was genuinely surprised this time.

"It seems so. In that case, what do you have to be afraid of? Go and face me head-on." The Herrscher of Thunder pointed at her past self and said to Chen Luo.

"???"
