Their commission was suspicious.

"Hey, you're the First Herrscher, Welt, right? I'd like to ask you, do you know what the Herrscher of Reason means? Is gravity the true power of the Herrscher of Reason?" Chen Luo suddenly looked up and asked this question.

"What a superficial understanding! Manipulating gravity is merely one manifestation of my ability. My true ability is... is... what is it?" Welt, the Herrscher of Reason, who was about to mock Chen Luo, suddenly stammered for some reason.

What is my true ability... again?

"Tch." Chen Luo scoffed dismissively.

Then the countless threads that Chen Luo had already laid throughout the corridor came into view, revealing a black and red appearance, and instantly entangled the stunned Walter.

Of course, when using this move, Chen Luo also turned off his Honkai Terminator's finishing move.

Actually, Chen Luo originally prepared this move for Xing, because Chen Luo had never fought Xing before, so Chen Luo put in a lot of effort for it.

Otherwise, Chen Luo wouldn't have talked so much with Xing Fei, delaying the other party's actions.

But Chen Luo didn't expect that Xing would collapse before he could even exert his strength.

This is the invincible Lady Xing!

And now, the suddenly appearing First Herrscher, Welt, is enjoying all the benefits.

Furthermore, because the opponent is a Herrscher, the damage received is increased by 60%.

The damage calculation for the Honkai Terminator is that simple and straightforward.

The lower your position in the Honkai faction, the higher the total damage you will receive.

Increases damage dealt to Honkai Beasts and Death Knights by 100%, and increases damage dealt to Herrschers by 25%.

For special "Herrschers" like Welt, who are neither Honkai Beast assassins nor Herrschers, the damage they receive is increased by 60%.

Speaking of which, even the pseudo-Herrscher Yae Sakura only has 50% of the power, and Welt is even inferior to the pseudo-Herrscher.

Under the combined erosion of the dual Herrscher powers of Domination and Corruption, and the devouring of Honkai energy, the small sphere in front of the opponent instantly shattered, and the gravity applied to Chen Luo was also broken.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chen Luo instantly disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Walter, and then he stabbed Walter in the abdomen with one hand.

"Ah!!!" Walter let out a violent scream.

When Chen Luo first saw his Herrscher persona stab Yae Sakura in the stomach, he thought she was ruthless, but now he thinks it was probably one of the most suitable methods.

Stabbing someone in the hand or leg, even if you manage to stab them open, it won't necessarily incapacitate them. Stabbing someone in the chest, on the other hand, could potentially kill them outright.

Therefore, stabbing the stomach is the most suitable method.

Moreover, the distance from the abdomen to the limbs is almost the middle, meaning that this area is the most efficient and convenient transportation hub for invading and dominating other areas.

As the opponent's screams rang out, more and more threads wrapped around Welt's body. In addition to absorbing Honkai energy, the black and red threads also carried the power of the Herrscher of Corruption.

The power of erosion can not only control machines but also beasts or humans, thus it can erode the body of the other party. When eroding the other party, it will inevitably have a physical effect on the other party and indirectly affect the soul.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to control his body is very effortless.

The power of the Law of Domination and the power of the Law of Corruption are indeed a perfect match.

But just as Chen Luo had eroded half of his opponent's power, he suddenly stopped.

"Is this thing really worth controlling?" Chen Luo suddenly fell into doubt. Now the other party has been half corrupted, becoming a half-doll like Ling.

"If the other party is really the Herrscher of Reason, then it's definitely worth it, but he's just a clone of the Herrscher of Reason. And a defective clone at that..." Chen Luo was really conflicted.

If you're talking about killing him, he is at least a combatant, and if you wanted to kill him, you would have just used the Honkai Terminator to kill him.

But if you say you're controlling him into a puppet, then you're actually letting him down a little.

Since becoming a puppeteer and acquiring a collection of puppets, Chen Luo seems to have developed a strange collecting obsession.

At this moment, Chen Luo finally understood why his father had kept three sets of things: one set to touch, one set to display, and one set to seal.

Chen Luo's current doll collection only includes Yae Sakura. Even Ling doesn't count. Ling is only a half-doll and doesn't qualify for the doll collection, so she doesn't occupy one of the 999 slots.

As for Yae Sakura, if she were to beat up Welt—and I'm referring to the clone—it would be a piece of cake.

Therefore, adding Watt to the doll collection would undoubtedly pollute the inventory.

"But if you say you'd turn him into a half-doll, he definitely won't listen."

Walter's situation is different from Ling's. Ling has a natural affinity for Chen Luo, and Chen Luo has no intention of controlling her. He only wants to maintain her existence, so he can be semi-dollified.

"Forget it, let's just add it to the doll collection for now. If we're not satisfied, we can always kill it later. Anyway, once we're short one doll in the collection, we can just add another one immediately."

Ultimately, torn between his collecting obsession and his urgent need for combat power, Chen Luo chose combat power.

As Chen Luo made his decision, more black and red threads began to appear in the void, surrounding and entangling Walter in front of him.

Walter's screams gradually weakened amidst the endless entanglement. Just like Yae Sakura at the beginning, he was gradually bound into a cocoon. When he broke free of the cocoon, he would be a puppet again.

Besides turning the other person into a puppet, this cocoon can also be used for healing.

As for why this cocoon increases the healing effect, it's probably because making each doll causes considerable damage to the doll's body.

After all, if you think about it carefully, both the Herrscher personality and Chen Luo's method of creating puppets involved first piercing the opponent's abdomen to render them incapable of movement, and then binding them tightly with strings to begin transforming them into puppets.

If a healing function isn't added, the doll might die right after the transformation.

Is this a case of demand determining supply?

"But this Xing..." After dealing with Walter, Chen Luo walked over to Xing, squatted down, and tapped her head with the blade of his sword.

"What should I do?" Chen Luo was still very troubled by this.

If Walter's replica has half the qualifications to be included in Chen Luo's doll collection, then this Xing really doesn't even have half the qualifications.

It's not that our invincible Grandma Xing is bad... well, she really is bad.

Killing her was out of the question, since wasting things is not a good habit.

Moreover, the invincible Grandpa Xing is an excellent source of material.

Time manipulation... If I become a puppet master in the future and can mass-produce time-manipulation puppets, then...

How about a time bomb?

Time-manipulation users, especially those with such weak time-manipulation abilities, are really hard to find.

"Then... let's make it a semi-humanoid." Chen Luo thought for a moment, then gently placed his right hand on the other person's neck.

The ability of the Ruler of Domination is activated.

The other party is currently in a coma, so turning them into a puppet went smoothly. Although the other party showed a painful expression, it wasn't Chen Luoteng anyway.

Although the other party was indeed no match for me, it would still hurt a lot if they could have broken one or two ribs.

Therefore, Chen Luo felt absolutely no remorse.

There are differences between half-dolls. Can a 1% doll be the same as a 99% doll?

Ling's type is only about 5% of a doll. Chen Luo only maintains her existence to a minimum and transforms her into a half-doll. His control over her is extremely limited.

As for this apricot, Chen Luo set a limit of 50% for her.

Chen Luo couldn't control the other person's thoughts to this extent, but he could make the other person say one thing but mean another.

The mind is the other person's mind, but the body is Chen Luo's body, obeying Chen Luo's commands.

However, if the degree exceeds 50%, it will be easy for others to notice the abnormality.

Moreover, once it exceeds 50%, even if Chen Luo stops increasing it, the other party will gradually become Chen Luo's puppet over time. This is an irreversible process, so 50% is just right for someone who wants to control but doesn't want to completely control.

"Sigh..." Although he had acquired two puppets, Chen Luo was not happy at all.

If the quality of the dolls in Chen Luo's doll collection is at the level of Yae Sakura, then Chen Luo would certainly be happy.

But this time, the two dolls they received were both grotesque and deformed.

Especially after realizing his own power and detecting the degree of decay in Walter's body while modifying him, Chen Luo sighed even more.

This Walter clone is one of those mass-produced but not fully mass-produced items that were essentially wasted.

He has a lot of health problems.

After acquiring a combatant intended to be used as cannon fodder, Chen Luo still had to sacrifice a Honkai energy crystal to modify the opponent's body.

What kind of unprofitable business is this?

Chen Luo sighed as he threw a piece of Honkai Crystal onto the other person's body.

If the Honkai Crystal given to Yae Sakura was to replenish her nutrients, then the Honkai Crystal given to Welt was simply to heal his injuries.

Cocolia's cloning technology is truly indescribable, at least in Chen Luo's eyes.

Chen Luo's furniture project raised all of his puppeteer skills to the proficiency level, including human body modification.

With the added boost from the Möbius Scalpel gift that increases his favorability, Chen Luo can now be considered a senior researcher from the former civilization.

So Chen Luo could only sigh and use his powers to perform surgery on Walter.

Damn it, that's a huge loss.

"After we've modified this Welt, we'll infiltrate Anti-Entropy as a spy, try to get him into a high position, and then wipe out Anti-Entropy in one fell swoop. This is the result of foolish mortals daring to resist Honkai," Chen Luo muttered under his breath.

[Ding! Honkai faction item exchange discount is 9.2%]

Well, there's another piece of news: the favorability rating is starting to increase more slowly.

In the past, just saying nice things was enough, but now you have to do something concrete to get a discount.

Life is full of disappointments, but Chen Luo always felt that he had experienced them all.

Chapter 130 Chen Luo's Fourth Calamity Legion

A complete dollification process doesn't take long, but treating Walter's various ailments during the dollification process takes much longer.

The good news is that if the original Walter clone could only be considered a defective product, after Chen Luo's modifications it is now a semi-finished product.

This makes it even more powerful for the opponent to use that gravity-based ability.

If Chen Luo were to obtain the original body, that is, the cloned Walter's, Chen Luo felt that what he did would be much better than that useless Cocolia.

The technology of Anti-Entropy is indeed advanced, but their main focus is on mechs, and these mechs are based on knowledge from an earlier civilization.

Not only is it entropy, but even if you add destiny, in Chen Luo's opinion, the other party's human body modification technology is just so-so. He could probably do it himself, and even surpass it in some aspects.

After all, Chen Luo was essentially a disciple of Möbius.

Of course, there are indeed those who surpass their teachers, such as Otto.

It's a pity that Otto, that old rascal, doesn't do anything productive.

If you ask whether Otto was important to humanity, then he certainly was, but to say that he genuinely fought against the Honkai for humanity's sake is definitely impossible.

Otto himself said that he would not destroy the Honkai, at least not before the Herrscher of Death appeared. He even wanted to protect the Honkai so that the Herrscher of Death could be born smoothly.

In short, it seems that Destiny's technology is already advanced enough, but in reality, Otto has many more amazing things that he is unwilling to reveal.

"I really should take a look at the Void Treasury later, but unfortunately it's currently in a state of overlimit and I can't read the knowledge inside."

It is conceivable that once the limit is exceeded, the Void Treasury, which completely obeys Chen Luo's commands, will display all its authority. After reading all the knowledge of the previous civilization, Chen Luo's theoretical knowledge will become even more powerful.

After all, compared to the Void Archives' ability to simulate any Divine Key, the knowledge contained within the Void Archives is actually more important.

"So here's the problem: if you don't show me some value, I'll send you back to the furnace right now for a makeshift solution," Chen Luo said, looking at Walter, who was gradually being released by the threads, with displeasure.

When the binding threads begin to loosen, it means that the person has been turned into a puppet by Chen Luo, and at this point, the threads can be easily cut.

Just like the modified Yae Sakura, after replenishing her nutrition, her combat power instantly soared, and she cut through all the threads, intending to kill Chen Luo.

The same goes for Welt. Chen Luo not only replenished his Honkai energy, but also adjusted his body for a long time, bringing him to his peak condition and solving his power output problem. It can be said that the current Welt can fight at least two Welts from the past.

and so……

Just as Walter was about to be completely untied by the threads, Walter opened his eyes, and a pitch-black ball of light appeared in front of him. A terrifying gravity began to exert itself on this pitiful, weak, and helpless ME company corridor.

"Hahaha, although I don't know what you did to me, I feel better than ever before, so I've decided to grant you a complete corpse!" Walter, who started laughing hysterically, broke free from the silk threads that had become weak after use. He held the gravity ball in one hand, stroked his hair with the other, and looked at Chen Luo arrogantly.

"Hmph!" Seeing Walter's audacity, Chen Luo snorted and looked at him coldly.

Feeling Chen Luo's cold gaze, as if looking at a lamb to the slaughter, Walter suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his body even uncontrollably lowered his proud head.

"Put away your pointless temper. If it happens again, I'll send you back to the furnace for a complete makeover," Chen Luo said, looking at the clone he had personally modified.

"Yes, sir..." Feeling the command that could not be resisted, Walter's spirit also bowed down to Chen Luo.

Even someone as proud as Vayte, after being transformed into a doll, was destined to kneel and sing "Conquer."

If the real First Herrscher were to arrive, Chen Luo might not be able to defeat her. After all, the First Herrscher was indeed a bug, and her power of thought was terrifying. But this defective copy is not worth mentioning.
