Their commission was suspicious.

No matter who it was, they were all killed by the Law of Restraint!

Just as Chen Luo was pondering, Yulandel in the live stream also made her own choice.

To kill the Ninth Herrscher directly?

This is also the only choice Durandal has made so far that differs from Kevin's in the original storyline.

And as it turns out, Durandal's actions did indeed cause significant subsequent changes. At least because there was no Kosmo or even Chen Luo, no one was able to immediately research the artificial collapse state.

However, although the tenth Herrscher, who followed the ninth Herrscher, had a great impact on the previous civilization as a whole, each of them was very weak individually, so they did not have much of an impact.

When the Eleventh Herrscher arrived, fate returned to its original trajectory. Due to the deaths of many acquaintances, Kosmos became extremely angry and awakened the artificial collapse state.

"So that's how it was done? That's amazing." Chen Luo said, watching Durandal's simulated life.

This test for Durandal was indeed a simple test in the eyes of Durandal and Sue, but in Chen Luo's view, it was more like the world consciousness personally simulating for Chen Luo the world line orientation problem of the collapsing world after making different choices.

Chen Luo watched it very carefully.

Kosmo's awakening of a man-made collapse state due to extreme rage during the Eleventh Herrscher's timeline is theoretically plausible, and it would have been just enough time to deal with the Eleventh Herrscher.

In fact, how strong a Fusion Warrior is individually is not really important when dealing with the Herrscher of Binding, since it's all about risking one's life anyway. Whether or not someone has a Collapsed Form makes no difference.

Once the upper limit of the constraint barrier is filled, Kevin will naturally step in to kill the Eleventh Herrscher.

Fusion warriors are gone? Then fill the gap with regular soldiers.

In any case, each of the 13 heroes has their own unique characteristics, and they are basically destined not to die in the tragedy of being bound by constraints.

However, the artificial collapse state is necessary because it greatly enhances the Fusion Warrior.

Ultimately, the test Durandal underwent was to observe whether she had the determination to defeat the Honkai, rather than whether she had the strength to surpass Kevin. Therefore, it is normal for the timeline to converge.

As long as Durandal follows her heart during the trials, that's enough.

This is why the Stigmata Trial, combined with this small item from the world's consciousness, makes Stigmata Awakening extremely safe.

You're guaranteed admission, understand?

However, there is still a high risk of failure in the early stages.

For example, if Durandal chose not to undergo the fusion surgery performed by Chen Luo, which had a near 100% failure rate, then... the end of the series.

Therefore, Durandal needs a partner she can absolutely trust.

Oh, no, there are two.

We need someone else to play Su.

……

Durandal made a promise on the scorched earth: Humanity will eventually defeat the Honkai!

The Twelfth Lawrence was defeated at a terrible cost.

The Thirteenth Law withered away in a desolate manner.

Upon seeing the colossal Herrscher of the End appear before her, Durandal unleashed a powerful Heavenly Judgment, instantly crippling the Herrscher of the End.

Meanwhile, Sue, played by Rita, learns that Kevin is still alive and shares this news with Mei, played by Chen Luo.

"Yay, almost done filming!" Chen Luo cheered after seeing himself hand over the Monitor Project to Rita on the live stream screen.

"...Why are you so happy?" Su couldn't help but ask.

What's there to be happy about when you're about to die?

"You don't understand, do you? Death is just the beginning of a new life." Chen Luo waved his hand.

Then I checked in, and got +20 Primogems.

Dr. Mei's dying wish was a famous scene.

Chen Luo wouldn't feel sad because it was him who was dying on the screen, not Mei.

Moreover, in reality, Chen Luo wouldn't let Mei die.

After receiving the daily check-in reward, Chen Luo casually drew a prize.

[Ding! Congratulations on acquiring a new special skill - All-Out Attack]

【All or Nothing】: Deal massive damage to the enemy by consuming a large number of precious items.

Condition 1: The valuable item itself must be able to cause some damage to an object, and it must have a certain value; coins are best (paper money needs to be folded into a shape that can cause damage to a single target).

Condition 2: Coins made from metals of the corresponding attribute can deal damage to the enemy based on that attribute.

(Coins made of ordinary metal can deal physical damage to enemies, while coins made of magical metal can deal magical damage to enemies...)

Special Effects: When a skill deals a critical hit, there is a small chance to randomly apply various effects. The specific probability depends on the attributes of the high-value item and the weakness of the target.

……

When Chen Luo saw this skill, the first thing that came to mind was his Paradise Coins.

The second thing that came to mind was the immortal technique [Inch Advance - Heaven Opening] and the item [Mountain and River Summer Retreat Scripture] that I had acquired before.

The latter can increase its damage by stacking the number of attacks, while the former can deal a large amount of true damage to the enemy with the final blow based on the number of times the opponent has been attacked.

If we add the "All or Nothing" strategy and a huge amount of Paradise Coins...

"Su, can I use you to test a skill?"

"What skill?"

"I'll shower you with money."

“…Okay.” Although Su didn’t know why Chen Luo would come up with such a strange idea, she figured it was just because he was being swayed by money.

I'm a fusion warrior!

After obtaining Su's consent, Chen Luo took out a Paradise Coin from the group network and flicked it at Su, who was standing next to him.

In order to maintain the lasting effect of Chen Luo's "Don't underestimate a young man's potential" attitude, Chen Luo never regarded Paradise Gold Coins as his personal treasury.

It's like a company owner who earns billions every year but only pays himself a one-dollar salary.

You can't say Chen Luo is poor, but you can't say Chen Luo is rich either.

Then, Su, who had been hit on the head with a gold coin, went to sleep.

"Sigh, youth is wonderful, I can fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow... Wait! Su, wake up! Su, don't scare me, I only used one gold coin."

[You used "All or Nothing" on Su. Your attack resulted in a critical hit, with the additional effect: Sleep.]

"Is it really that unlucky? Wasn't it supposed to be a low probability event?"

[If you think of Su as a corporate slave who's been working non-stop for millennia (observing parallel worlds), you'll understand. Suddenly throwing a pillow at someone who hasn't slept in ages, and they fall asleep the moment they touch it—that makes perfect sense, right?]

[And I think the timing of when the other person fell asleep was quite opportune.]

"how do I say this?"

Look up.

After hearing the humanized plugin's reminder, Chen Luo looked at the live stream screen of Durandal, which had undergone the test, and happened to see a scene that was not suitable for children.

For some reason, after Durandal finished off the Herrscher of the End, and after Mei (Chen Luo) handed over the Overseer Project to Su (Rita), Mei didn't die immediately.

Instead, she held on until she saw Kevin (Durandal) one last time.

Perhaps this is just a small act of kindness from the world's consciousness.

Then... because Durandal was nearly exhausted after delivering a powerful blow to the Herrscher of the End, she was no longer so cold.

Although Chen Luo felt that this was quite unscientific, that's how it was portrayed on the live stream.

So Kevin is about to share a final farewell kiss with May.

This was also the only scene in the entire live stream that appeared slightly more adult-like.

"How about trying to immerse yourself in the original character?"

A voice suddenly rang in Chen Luo's ears.

"Huh?" Chen Luo was taken aback.

The next moment, Chen Luo's vision blurred.

After he calmed down, Chen Luo saw Yulandel holding him in her arms, who was very close to him.

"I'll take the two wisps of your primordial energy. Thank you for your patronage. Enjoy your main body now."

Damn it! This is forced buying and selling! I haven't even said I agreed yet!

But the next moment, Chen Luo was speechless.

You guys are really playing fancy tricks with your world consciousness!

And I didn't realize that Durandal, this warrior who is so reckless and invincible, actually understands romance and knows what a French kiss is.

With his mouth gagged, Chen Luo felt like he had been fucked.

Chen Luo never expected that watching a live stream would turn him into the one being live-streamed.

Fortunately, Su, who was outside, was knocked unconscious by Chen Luo with a gold coin. Otherwise...

Chen Luo's body trembled involuntarily, and then, sensing the "desire" of the person in his arms, Youlandail kissed him even more earnestly.

Chapter 1656 World Consciousness: Don't Resist If You Don't Want Durandal's Stigmata Awakening to Fail!

Feeling her lover struggling slightly in her arms and seeming somewhat uncomfortable, Durandal parted her lips.

Previously, due to the modifications made to the Fusion Warriors, her body temperature was always too low. Durandal even needed to wear a cold-weather suit to get close to her loved one.

Looking at Chen Luo, whose eyes were somewhat dazed, in her arms, Youlandail tidied his hair.

However, Chen Luo was not confused, but rather felt utterly hopeless.

World consciousness, you're something else!

Half of the two strands of primordial energy were used to pull Chen Luo's true form into the test, while the entire strand was used to bind all of Chen Luo's talents. As a result, the weak, pitiful, and helpless Chen Luo was forcibly kissed by Durandal.

After all that effort, all for a mere wisp of Origin Essence?

What are you after?

What kind of person is this?

However, this was the first time Chen Luo had ever known that the source energy could be used in this way.

Because the essence of the primordial aura is extremely high, as long as one is willing to use it as a consumable for sealing, even Chen Luo's strongest SSS-level talent, the River God ability, cannot be used during the period of restriction.

However, the more talents a person possesses and the higher their level, the faster they can break the seal.

Chen Luo, for example, broke the seal in just over ten seconds.

But they had already kissed.

Without breaking the seal, Chen Luo became an ordinary person. Although his body was slightly stronger than Dr. Mei's, the difference was still limited.

Moreover, for Durandal, as long as she is willing, it doesn't make much difference whether it's Dr. Mei's constitution or Chen Luo's constitution.

Anyway, there's no way to resist it.

The good news is that the Origin Aura can seal Chen Luo's physical attributes, mental strength, magic power, and even talent, but it cannot seal Chen Luo's special skills.

Chen Luo had also considered using his virtual stealth ability to escape reality, but the world's consciousness seemed to have anticipated his thoughts and did not stop him. Instead, it said something to Chen Luo.

"You don't want Durandal's awakening of the Stigmata inheritance to fail, do you?"

Where did this Far Eastern world consciousness come from? Can you tone it down?

Chen Luo had always said this to others before; this was the first time he had been threatened like this by someone else.

Chen Luo can see his life countdown now; he has two hours left to live, and it's irreversible.

That's quite normal. After all, Mei was already suffering from chronic illnesses due to overwork, and she wasn't suitable for fusion surgery. If she were to undergo fusion surgery without the necessary qualifications, it would be a death sentence.

If there were a cure for the fire-chasing moth, Mei would have been cured long ago.

The key issue now is that if Chen Luo doesn't want Durandal's Heavenly Origin Power to fail to awaken, he must act according to the script.

Chen Luo could choose to commit suicide immediately and wrap up filming right now, or he could choose to truly and conscientiously play the role of Dr. Mei in the remaining two hours.

It means that you cannot display any abilities that are inconsistent with Dr. May's power.
