Their commission was suspicious.

Chapter 109 Holy crap, I've become a Herrscher!

Cat on top? Swimming in the middle? Newton below? What kind of trash is that?

Everything is trash compared to my fully liberated puppeteer stigmata!

The total damage dealt by Chen Luo's summoned creatures is increased by 60%, which allows Chen Luo's puppeteer class to reach its full potential.

The Puppeteer's second effect is even more outrageous; it increases the puppet's damage instead of the puppet's.

Is the correct way to use a puppeteer to summon a puppet, buff yourself, and then defeat your opponent on your own?

Understood.

Chen Luo suddenly grasped the essence of the puppeteer.

Compared to this evolved puppeteer, five thousand crystals, though precious, seem insignificant, like fireflies before the bright moon.

The evolution of the Stigmata did not require waiting two days like the Transcendent Void Treasury; it only required waiting a few minutes.

The title changed from [Danzhu - Puppeteer] to [Puppeteer].

At the same time, Chen Luo's crystal inventory also decreased by 4500 instantly, because he was currently on a 9% discount.

Meanwhile, even without using the scope of the third Divine Key sniper rifle, a pink figure could be seen stepping into Chiba Academy from the top floor of the school building.

"They've arrived." Chen Luo murmured softly, looking at the figure with a long sword hanging at his waist.

"Sakura?" Raven, who also saw the other's figure, exclaimed in surprise.

"..." Upon hearing Raven's exclamation, Chen Luo subconsciously glanced at Raven.

It seems that Raven has indeed passed the test of the Paradise of Past Lives, otherwise he wouldn't know Sakura.

Furthermore, in the Paradise of the Past, Raven and Sakura had a good relationship, perhaps because they both liked taking care of children.

Sakura, one of the thirteen heroes of the Moth of Fire, an anti-Honkai organization under the United Nations of the previous civilization era, ranked "VIII" and marked with "Setsuna". She wields the super-limit weapon "Spirit Blade: Frosty Prison". She is a member of the secret operations force "Poison Chrysalis".

In a sense, he was also Chen Luo's colleague.

Although Chen Luo currently only holds a research position at the research institute under the Fire Chaser.

This cherry blossom looks very similar to the double cherry blossom, or rather, almost exactly the same.

Their relationship is probably similar to that of Dr. Mei and Raiden Mei—completely unrelated.

Sakura has a younger sister named Rei, who was discovered to be one of the Twelfth Herrschers and was subsequently killed.

Yae Sakura also has a younger sister named Rin. Forced by their father, Yae Sakura personally sacrifices Rin.

Overall, both of them were quite unlucky, and their experiences were indeed quite similar.

Therefore, it's quite normal for Raven to mistake Yae Sakura for Sakura.

"The other person isn't Sakura, it's Yae Sakura. Don't mistake her for someone else," Chen Luo said softly, holding the Third Divine Key.

"Yae Sakura? And why do you seem to know Sakura?" Raven looked at Chen Luo suspiciously.

"I already know about the Gray Serpent, so is it strange that I know one of the Thirteen Heroes is a hero?"

"That's true." Raven nodded.

When Chen Luo and Raven saw Yae Sakura, Yae Sakura also saw them. Upon seeing Chen Luo and his group, Yae Sakura's first instinct wasn't to kill the survivors, but to leave.

Yae Sakura still retains her rationality. Although her soul is on the verge of collapse, she ultimately dislikes indiscriminate killing.

Although she has already killed enough...

Just as Yae Sakura was about to retreat, Chen Luo's sniper rifle was aimed directly at her head.

Sensing the chilling sense of danger, Yae Sakura immediately stopped in her tracks.

"Miss Yae Sakura, would you please come and have a chat?" Chen Luo called out loudly.

Chen Luo's mastery of firearms, coupled with his third divine key, forced his opponent to walk this way.

Given that Chen Luo possesses long-range attack capabilities, and may even be able to kill with a single shot, whether he chooses to escape in an S-shape or a straight line, a headshot is likely to be the only option.

The only way to break this deadlock is to close the distance and engage in melee combat.

Furthermore, Yae Sakura still harbored some doubts about why the other party could call her by her name.

Just as Yae Sakura slowly approached the edge of the teaching building, Chen Luo's Stigmata had also completed their evolution.

Upon seeing that the stigmata could be equipped, Chen Luo immediately equipped it.

Although this stigmata probably won't be of much use in the negotiations later, let's install it first.

Although Chen Luo doesn't have any puppets right now, he has teammates.

Raven and Herrscher of Knowledge are both Chen Luo's teammates, so theoretically, if Chen Luo equips this stigma, he can immediately gain a 40% damage increase.

Unfortunately, since the two are not summoned creatures or puppets, they cannot enjoy the 60% increase in damage dealt.

But just as Chen Luo was attaching the Puppeteer's Mark, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

The puppeteer's mark seemed to resonate with Chen Luo's body, and this resonance seemed to begin to spread outwards.

"Buzz!" A huge energy surged up, and Chen Luo's vision went black for a moment, but he did not faint; his consciousness was just greatly impacted.

Chen Luo, who was originally holding onto the Third Divine Key tightly, shoved it into the arms of the raven next to him, and then his body slowly floated up.

The Herrscher of Consciousness, who was originally standing on Chen Luo's shoulder, also quickly left Chen Luo's body, because the Herrscher of Consciousness sensed the loss of Honkai energy within him.

As Chen Luo slowly floated into the air, countless purple particles converged towards him.

"Damn it, so the key to becoming a Herrscher wasn't that there were no other Herrschers in Changkong City, but that I was equipped with Stigmata!"

In the darkness, Chen Luo felt as if something was looking at him. Then, the surging Honkai energy gradually formed a gem, or rather, a Herrscher core, within Chen Luo's body.

The moment that Herrscher core began to take shape, Chen Luo understood what kind of Herrscher core he possessed.

The law of domination.

Also known as the Thousand Lawyers.

"Xiao Shi, take the raven back to the bar." Chen Luo, still reeling from the terrifying surge of Honkai energy, said to the Herrscher of Knowledge with some difficulty.

The hardship here isn't the pain caused by being washed away by Honkai energy, but rather because it's too comfortable.

After Chen Luo increased his Honkai Energy adaptability to 200%, he never felt any discomfort when using Honkai Energy.

The Herald of Knowledge, who received the order, chose to believe Chen Luo immediately.

Although it is unclear why Chen Luo issued such an order, it does not prevent the Lawbringers from taking action.

A bar appeared instantly behind the Herrscher of Consciousness. The Herrscher of Consciousness, having regained her original size, immediately grabbed Raven, who was standing nearby still unaware of what was happening, and went straight into the bar, closing the door behind her.

Yae Sakura, who had rushed to the bottom of the teaching building, was also somewhat confused about the current situation, but her hand was already on the sword at her waist.

At the same time, a black and red figure in the shape of a fox, seemingly in real life, appeared beside Yae Sakura.

After the fox appeared, it kept a close eye on Chen Luo, who was absorbing the entire Honkai energy of Changkong City, without saying a word.

"If you don't want to die, run! You can't beat him," the last fox figure said.

And this fox-like figure is the Herrscher of Corruption.

"..." Although Yae Sakura didn't know why the guy next to her, Hiyomaru, had chickened out so quickly, it didn't stop her from agreeing with what he said.

It would be unwise to fight them now, and besides, Yae Sakura never intended to fight in the first place.

"Trying to run? A bit too late, huh? Hahaha!" Floating in the air, enjoying the infusion of Honkai energy into the entire Changkong City, "Chen Luo" laughed wildly.

"There is no grudge between us..." Yae Sakura was somewhat confident in her own strength, but she was unwilling to have a conflict with the other party for no reason.

"No grudges? No, no, no, your very existence here is the greatest grudge. The Honkai energy near Chiyu Academy is insufficient; it's simply not enough to perfect my powers! And I can't open the main personality's backpack!"

"However, if we add a pseudo-Herrscher and a Herrscher of Corruption, we can almost replenish our nutrients and perfect our powers. So, for the sake of Honkai, we need you to make a small sacrifice now! Hahahaha!" Chen Luo, floating in the air, said in a completely different arrogant tone from his usual self.

The Honkai energy in Changkong City is more than enough to create a Herrscher, and there might even be a little left over, but the energy near Qianyu Academy is not enough.

For some reason, the Herrscher of Domination did not receive support from the Honkai energy of all parts of Changkong City. The Honkai energy that poured into the Herrscher of Domination was probably less than half of the existing Honkai energy in Changkong City.

So it's not enough.

Fortunately, there is both a pseudo-Herrscher and a real Herrscher here.

Sensing danger, Yae Sakura vanished from her spot in an instant.

"Run? It's too late!" Chen Luo snapped his fingers lightly as he watched Yae Sakura "run" dozens of meters in an instant.

In an instant, countless dense threads appeared near the teaching building, even extending out to half of the Chiyu Academy.

And Yae Sakura was naturally also bound by these threads.

"I'll accept the pseudo-law maker and the law maker without hesitation, and I'll also accept the power of the corrupting law maker without hesitation! Hahahaha!"

Chen Luo laughed maniacally as he watched Yae Sakura, who was still entangled despite constantly cutting off the threads.

Who would stand still and make threats for no reason? This newly born Herrscher personality of Chen Luo is just as intelligent as Chen Luo himself.

Making threats is just a cover-up, a cover-up for the formation of countless threads.

"As long as I can absorb your power and Honkai energy, I will definitely be able to suppress that piece of trash in my body who only knew how to [selflessly dedicate], and obtain all of him! At that time, I will become the strongest Herrscher!" Wind elements gathered behind him, and Chen Luo flew towards Yae Sakura, who was gradually being wrapped in countless threads.

After Chen Luo became a Herrscher, these threads gained another ability: to absorb Honkai energy.

Since the Herrscher has lost Honkai energy, their strength will naturally decrease. It cannot be said that they are powerless, but it is impossible for them to break free from those extremely tough threads.

"Tsk, am I really this chuunibyou as a Herrscher?" Inside the consciousness space, Chen Luo sat cross-legged in a void, watching his extremely chuunibyou-like words and actions outside.

Although the situation seemed extremely critical, Chen Luo remained completely calm.

because……

[Spend 1 crystal to completely eradicate the Herrscher personality.]

[Spend 10 crystals to completely devour the Herrscher personality.]

"Is...it really that cheap?" Chen Luo looked at the talent panel in disbelief.

Wow, as expected of the talent panel, it's awesome.

10 crystals, isn't this just a matter for two assassins?

Are Herrscher personas really that worthless?

[Warning! The Herrscher personality is gradually becoming stronger. If it is not expelled or absorbed immediately, the amount of crystals required will increase dramatically.]

"Hmm, a surge?" Chen Luo was startled.

The required amount of crystals will double!

"...Ah, it really is a surge."

The amount of crystals required has doubled. What else can you call this if not a surge?

The problem is... even if it's doubled, it only requires 20 crystals in total, right?

"Should I spend 10 crystals to devour the opponent now, or spend 20 crystals to devour a stronger opponent? Yuanfang, what do you think?" Chen Luo looked at the talent panel.

[As the Herrscher personality grows stronger, the mental power enhanced after consuming it also becomes more powerful. It is recommended to consume it only after the other party has grown into a fully-fledged Herrscher of Domination, to obtain a greater increase in mental power.]

Simply put, the piglets are still young, don't slaughter them, wait until the New Year.

"Holy crap, that's me! No, this isn't me!" After agreeing with the talent panel's suggestion, Chen Luo looked up and saw something shocking.

The other self outside actually pierced Yae Sakura's abdomen with its bare hand, seemingly absorbing her Honkai energy at an alarming rate.

Meanwhile, the black and red fox figure next to him, who was the Herrscher of Corruption, was also entangled in those strange threads.

Honkai is a conscious entity, and the Honkai core it provides is not static. The Herrscher of a Thousand in the previous era is different from the Herrscher of a Thousand in the original storyline of this era.

The Herrschers of Domination from the previous era were primarily there to infiltrate and disrupt the unity of humanity, incidentally destroying the Divine Keys as well. They possess the power to control any energy, but their individual strength is extremely weak, far inferior to that of a proper Herrscher.

In the original storyline, the Herrscher of Domination in this era was more inclined to control the powers of other Herrschers, specifically to deal with those traitorous Herrschers.

It sounds like they have a really good match for the puppeteer.

The Herrscher of Domination that Chen Luo has obtained this time may be due to his talent and profession as a puppeteer, or it may be due to the Stigmata of the puppeteer, or it may be due to something else. Therefore, Chen Luo's Herrscher of Domination is slightly different from the Herrscher of a Thousand in the original story.

Chen Luo is also capable of seizing and dominating other Herrschers, but unlike the Thousand Herrschers, Chen Luo does not have 1000 individuals. Chen Luo's Herrscher domination power is more inclined towards domination.

For example, what this Herrscher persona is doing right now.

He is plundering the powers of the Herrscher of Corruption, and at the same time, he is also plundering Yae Sakura, who is a pseudo-Herrscher.
