Their commission was suspicious.

Or rather, it seems that after having the talent panel, the probability of Chen Luo arguing with himself has increased.

"It's true that the more you know in this world, the more dangerous it becomes." After sighing about this, Chen Luo pedaled his bicycle even harder as he hurried back.

Ever since he learned that there might be other people with special abilities in this world, Chen Luo has been hesitant to use his God's Eye.

……

"Ha, you rushed back in such a hurry just to tell me this?" The Herrscher of Knowledge, who had initially felt a little guilty looking at the messy living room, became somewhat exaggerated after hearing Chen Luo's story.

"Can't you just not believe me? I'm telling the truth, there really are people with special abilities in this world," Chen Luo said helplessly.

“Of course I know that, aren’t you?” The Herrscher of Knowledge nodded.

“I mean, except for me,” Chen Luo tried to correct.

"I know that too. I forgot to tell you yesterday, that is, after I transmigrated to this world, there is no Honkai energy, but there is another kind of peculiar energy. This power is no less than Honkai energy, and unlike Honkai energy, it is not good for the body and will not erode the body." Hearing Chen Luo say this, the Herrscher of Knowledge seemed to remember something.

"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Chen Luo shouted loudly after a moment of silence, grabbing the Herrscher of Knowledge's ear.

"Let go, let go! How can you blame me? Shouldn't you blame yourself for not asking?" After Chen Luo grabbed her ear, the Herrscher of Knowledge quickly reached out and grabbed Chen Luo's wrist, slamming him onto the sofa.

"???" Chen Luo stared blankly at the ceiling, not knowing how he had been pinned down there.

He truly deserves the title of master of close combat.

"Hmm, there's no dinner for you." Chen Luo said suddenly after pondering for a while.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong." The Herrscher of Knowledge quickly admitted defeat.

Chapter 26 The Herrscher of Consciousness Changed Your Mind

"Xiao Shi, can we discuss something?" After threatening the Herrscher of Knowledge with dinner to force him to apologize, Chen Luo sat down on the sofa and asked.

"Xiao Shi, what a strange name that is?"

"Don't you like it?" Chen Luo tilted his head.

"I can't say I dislike it, it's just a bit strange, but it's acceptable. It's still better than 'Herrscher of Knowledge'," Herrscher of Knowledge said after nodding.

"Oh, right, what did you want to say?"

"Could you possibly alter my consciousness?" Chen Luo pleaded with the Herrscher of Consciousness.

"Huh? You're asking me to modify your consciousness? What kind of weird fetish is that?" Even the Herrscher of Knowledge was stunned by Chen Luo's outrageous statement.

"Or have you finally discovered that the Lawgiver of Original Consciousness is unparalleled in the world, beautiful, dashing, and intends to worship this immortal even more?"

"Do you even believe what you're saying? Here's the thing, besides that Eye of God, I have another rather special ability called Furniture Mastery."

"Furniture expert? Jackie Chan? Then could you beat Thanos in a furniture factory?" Upon hearing Chen Luo's words, the Herrscher of Knowledge instantly became interested.

"How could that be? Of course, I haven't tried it myself. Listen to me first, don't interrupt. The use of my ability is to skillfully use and control all props that can be classified as household items," Chen Luo said to the Lawyer.

"Uh, this ability is not bad, quite good. It really makes cooking very delicious, right? No wonder you're such a good cook. But here's another question: are kitchen utensils considered furniture?" Another question arose in the mind of the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Did you hear what I just said? I was talking about household utensils, anything usable in the house that I can control, like kitchen knives and frying pans. How can those not be considered household utensils?" Chen Luo interrupted the Herrscher of Knowledge's whimsical thoughts once again.

"That makes sense. You're really good at that. After all, your cooking is really delicious."

"Stop worrying about whether the food tastes good or not, that's not the point! The point is that I discovered another use for this furniture mastery yesterday. If I change my logic, I can extend the furniture mastery outwards. For example, if I own a bar, the bar is also part of my home, and the things in the bar are naturally household items, so I naturally learned how to mix drinks."

"Wow, that's amazing! Could you mix me a drink?"

"Minors can't drink alcohol, and if you interrupt me again, you won't get dinner!" Chen Luo threatened the Herald of Knowledge.

God knows why he breaks a sentence into so many paragraphs!

"Mmm." After sensing Chen Luo's determination not to give her dinner through the power of the Herrscher of Knowledge, the Herrscher of Knowledge nodded quickly.

"So I was thinking, if I imagine myself as someone from a martial arts family, then wouldn't swords, spears, and clubs be considered household utensils? Would I then be able to master using these weapons? And this Eye of God, if I can understand it as something commonly used in the home, would I also be able to use it skillfully?" Chen Luo put forward the idea he had already conceived in his mind.

“But the problem is that I can’t convince myself. I can’t convince myself that the Eye of God is something we use at home, and I can’t convince myself that I come from a martial arts family. I can only convince myself after certain things have become a fait accompli, like when I actually own a bar, only then can I truly learn how to mix drinks,” Chen Luo said with some distress.

"I understand. In other words, you want me to use the omnipotence of the Herrscher of Consciousness to change your consciousness, making you believe that you come from a martial arts family, so that you can skillfully use knives, spears, and clubs." The Herrscher of Consciousness understood immediately.

"So I'm asking you for help," Chen Luo said seriously to the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"I thought it was something else. Don't worry about it, leave it to me. And it won't be that complicated. I'll just modify your consciousness so that you think everything is just household items, while preserving your rationality. Isn't that better? What if you encounter a cross or firearms instead of a martial arts family? So it's better to change your consciousness from another angle."

"Is that even possible?" Chen Luo was taken aback.

"Of course I can do it. Who am I? I am the Lawgiver of Knowledge." The Lawgiver of Knowledge laughed smugly.

“Come, come, I’ll prove it to you. Herald of Consciousness, I’ve now altered your consciousness…” Herald of Consciousness sat cross-legged on the sofa, leaning forward, his hands supporting him as he stared intently into Chen Luo’s eyes.

At that moment, Chen Luo felt a slight stinging pain in his head, roughly like being bitten hard by an insect.

However, this time Chen Luo did not use his guardianship authority to stop the alteration of consciousness, but instead accepted it.

Of course, Chen Luo also sensed that in addition to what the Herald of Consciousness had promised, this modification of consciousness also involved something else.

"Has the consciousness modification been successful?" Since he didn't feel anything special, Chen Luo specifically asked the Lawgiver of Consciousness.

"Yes, it's done." The Herrscher of Knowledge said with a sigh of relief.

It seems that modifying this level of consciousness without violating common sense is quite difficult for those who understand the laws of knowledge.

“But I always feel like you’ve added something of your own…” Chen Luo muttered.

"!!!"

What? Did he discover the fact that I added the "Herrscher of Knowledge never washes dishes after eating" feature to him?

Those who understood the law were greatly alarmed.

"Judging from your expression now, you really did add your own agenda to my story."

"What? You just tricked me?" The Herald of Knowledge was shocked again.

“Damn Herrscher of Consciousness, humanity will surely defeat the Honkai,” Chen Luo said again.

"Huh? What does your victory over the Honkai have to do with me? Besides, why would you need to defeat the Honkai? You're not a Valkyrie." The Herrscher of Knowledge looked at Chen Luo as if he were an idiot.

"..." Chen Luo was silent for a moment.

"What are you thinking about again?" The Herrscher of Knowledge trembled slightly as she suddenly felt a chill creep over her.

"I think you've mentioned it before, that one of your host forms is actually a feather."

"Yes, is there a problem?" The Herald of Knowledge nodded.

"Well, I don't know why, but now I feel like feathers are household items too, so..."

"Wait, wait, what are you doing? Don't come any closer! I'm going to beat you up!" The Herrscher of Knowledge saw Chen Luo suddenly stand up, and instantly flipped off the sofa, assuming a defensive stance.

"Don't be afraid, I'll just try it, really just try it..." Chen Luo slowly approached the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Not even once!

"Thud!" The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground rang out.

Chen Luo could not rise again...

Chapter 27 The Showdown with Treasure Seekers

"Hey, don't be angry anymore, okay?" Chen Luo took out an ice cream.

"Humph!"

"This time I was wrong." Chen Luo took out a spicy snack.

"Humph!"

"I'll never do it again." Chen Luo took out the raw stone.

"Wait, what's this? Why isn't it food?" The Herrscher of Knowledge, who had accepted the popsicle and spicy strips, looked at the shiny thing with a puzzled expression.

"Aren't you angry anymore? Besides, in a way, I'm the victim, okay? To be fair, you truly deserve to be called a master of close combat." Chen Luo still didn't understand why he, the one being humiliated, had to apologize to the person who was humiliating him.

"Then I'll reluctantly forgive you." Looking at the ice cream and spicy strips, the Lawbringer of Knowledge said mercifully.

Immortals are those who are magnanimous and generous.

"But then again, your ability is indeed a bit outrageous. If you weren't so weak, you could actually affect my actions. How about you let me modify my consciousness again? Remove me from your Furniture Mastery list," the Herrscher of Knowledge muttered before speaking to Chen Luo.

"No way! Who knows what you'll add to it? Tell me, what did you add?" Chen Luo asked.

"What, what ulterior motives? Don't slander people for no reason, okay?" The Lawbringer turned his head away.

"If you don't want to say, that's fine. But thanks to you, I have indeed mastered swordsmanship." A plain-looking longsword suddenly appeared in Chen Luo's hand. The moment he grasped the sword, Chen Luo felt as if it were an old friend of many years.

Chen Luo lightly flicked his longsword, and a sword aura instantly slashed out, cutting a fly flying rapidly in the air in two.

"With my mastery of swordsmanship and the Eye of God, I should be able to act as a swordsman now, the kind who can unleash sword energy." Chen Luo suddenly felt incredibly cool.

He's incredibly handsome.

"Tch, you? You're not even worth one of my hands." The Herrscher of Knowledge glanced at Chen Luo with disdain.

"..." Chen Luo was speechless, because the one who knew the law was telling the truth.

Chen Luo used to think that mastering a skill meant becoming a grandmaster, because the only different level he saw was grandmaster.

Therefore, Chen Luo believed that the difference in combat level between himself and the Herrscher of Knowledge was only one level.

Later, after looking at Yun Lian'er's skill list, Chen Luo realized that there was also a master-level skill.

[Book Reading Master] (Skill)

This skill is equivalent to remembering 8% of something after seeing it once, but it's not exactly the same as photographic memory, so it's only available at the master level.

Once you truly achieve photographic memory, that's the level of a grandmaster.

In other words, Chen Luo's current mastery of furniture, which has now transformed into mastery of cold weapons, needs to be upgraded one level to become a master of cold weapons, and then another level to become a grandmaster of cold weapons.

In the eyes of a melee master, whether you are a master or an expert, you are all noobs.

"Alright, since you've already helped me, as a way of repaying me, I'll reveal some of my secrets to you." After being somewhat taken aback, Chen Luo realized that there were always people more capable than him, and then sheathed his bladeless sword.

"A secret? What secret?" The Herald of Knowledge was instantly intrigued.

"It's about the secret behind why I like doing good deeds," Chen Luo said after a pause.

Now is the time for open and honest communication.

Because of the unique nature of this world, Chen Luo no longer dared to let the Herrscher of Knowledge go out to do chivalrous deeds. Therefore, she would definitely stay at home at night. If she wanted to avoid the Herrscher of Knowledge running the hotel, it would obviously be impossible.

And this doesn't necessarily have to be kept secret from others.

After all, the secrets of the Herald of Knowledge are more tempting than oneself.

In Chen Luo's view, the one who understands the law is like his grandfather before he grew up. Simply rejecting and concealing the truth will only drive the two of them further apart, especially since it is a kind of concealment that cannot be completely hidden.

Those who understand the laws of knowledge, even in Chen Luo's world, may not be considered top-tier, but they are at least first-rate.

Therefore, Chen Luo is determined to cling to this powerful figure.

……

"So you saved me because of the commission?" The Herrscher of Knowledge looked at Chen Luo expressionlessly, her thoughts unknown.

"not quite."

"According to you, the mission is considered complete once the reward is issued. In that case, will you kick me out? After all, your mission is complete, isn't it?"

"How could that be? If I wanted to get rid of you, why would I share my biggest secret with you? Although the mission is indeed complete, I still hope you can stay," Chen Luo said sincerely.

"Why? Is it because I'll train you? If that's the case, don't worry. Although you saved me just to complete the request, the fact remains that you saved me. Even if I don't live in your house, I will still help you with your training," the Herrscher of Knowledge said, shaking her head.

“No, that’s not the reason. It’s because we’re family now,” Chen Luo said.

"Huh? Are you planning to emulate those hot-blooded, verbally-savvy male protagonists?" The Herrscher of Knowledge couldn't help but chuckle.

"No, no, no, look, our relationship is really like family." Chen Luo showed the Herrscher of Knowledge the friends list in his talent panel.

Chen Luo discovered that his talent panel could be shown to others, if he wanted to.

Within the friends panel, you can also group them.

Chen Luo's group of friends consists of only two lonely people: Wendy and Yun Lian'er.
