Their commission was suspicious.

Anyway, if you touch different wishing lamps, the wishes on your body can be accumulated.

If you manage to touch the magic lamp, you've touched a hot potato!

After breakfast, Xiao Shi reluctantly said goodbye to Chen Luo and embarked on her journey to conquer the challenges.

As they walked, they kept muttering things like "damn dungeon" and "why they judged me to be a minor."

Chen Luo's conversation with Yakumo Yukari came to an abrupt end because the true source of the power had appeared.

Genyuan is now eagerly anticipating the materials Chen Luo has prepared for him, so he has become more diligent.

As for how to survive longer in the Root Vortex, the Root doesn't have any good advice, since fish really can't teach a landlubber how to survive in the sea.

Chen Luo did suggest that Yukari Yakumo touch thousands or tens of thousands of magic lamps to infinitely accumulate the number of wishes she should grant for him, and then directly create a nine-star wish to see if it could sustain her. Perhaps it could even allow her to swim freely in the Vortex of Origin.

However, Yukari Yakumo decisively rejected this suggestion, which sounded absurd.

"My energy ran out so quickly... I should go back and replenish it." Merlin said after finishing breakfast, glancing at the fading golden light on his body.

Those golden lights were the materialized recognition power within the bar.

“Speaking of which… Chen Luo, take me to that other world, okay?” Yakumo Yukari’s eyes lit up, and she put her hand on Chen Luo’s shoulder, putting her arm around his back.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

Rationally speaking, Yukari Yakumo, as a youkai sage, is quite attractive... well, Yukari Yakumo is very beautiful.

If you get too close, you can even smell the faint fragrance on Yukari Yakumo, but Chen Luo gets a headache as soon as he sees Yukari Yakumo's request.

Yukari Yakumo was quite well-behaved and didn't cause any trouble. After leaving the Golden Gensokyo, she remained very quiet, afraid that Chen Luo wouldn't let her play. However, Yukari Yakumo was very curious and wanted to see every world.

In addition, Yukari Yakumo is very special, so whenever Chen Luo receives a request from Yukari Yakumo to go to another world, he has to first check whether Yukari Yakumo will be "poisoned by another world" after arriving in that world.

"What are you planning to do now?" After calculating and discovering that Yukari Yakumo had excellent compatibility with that world, Chen Luo accepted the request.

"I was thinking, if I couldn't resist the corrosive power of the Root Nest, what if I had the capacity to possess two versions of myself after adding the power of recognition?" Yukari Yakumo was quite excited.

The reason why Yakumo Yukari didn't try to have Chen Luo turn her entire body, except for her consciousness, into golden Yakumo Yukari wasn't because it would feel strange, but simply because of the limitations of the River God's abilities.

While the River God's ability to replace itself with a single click is powerful, it also has a fatal flaw—the experience points gained using the golden body (the enhancements from training or initiation) are added to the golden body, and the original body's level remains unchanged after reverting to its original form.

Although I will still remember what happened, and the feelings will remain the same, but...

This means that skill proficiency can be shared with the main character, but experience points cannot.

While Yukari Yakumo gains some intangible knowledge and insights from bathing in the Root's Nest, the main source of her experience points is the growth she gains while being dissolved by the Root's Nest.

For this reason, Yukari Yakumo is looking for ways to strengthen herself—even temporary strengthening is fine.

Therefore, very few people in bars choose to have a constant golden physique... Gretchen is one of them.

Because Gretchen's abilities are essentially analysis and inspiration, and inspiration and experience happen to be interchangeable.

“If you want to try, you can. I can take you there,” Chen Luo nodded.

"Is there anything I should be careful about?"

"Don't cause too much physical damage to the world," Chen Luo said.

Since we're going to this other world through Chen Luo's channels, we must follow his approach—as outsiders, while ensuring we gain some benefits, we must also ensure that our forces don't cause too much interference in this world.

This is the practice of the transmigrators of the Second Order in the Dimensional Sea.

"What is the first 'order'?" Yukari Yakumo once asked.

"That means don't time travel."

"..."

Yukari Yakumo had to admit that Chen Luo was right.

What's the best way to solve a problem? It's to prevent problems from arising in the first place.

"Hey, wait a minute, remember to call Tiamat along." Genyuan reminded Chen Luo as he prepared to go to the other world.

"I almost forgot." Hearing the source's reminder, Chen Luo could only go to the Valkyrie's dormitory to wake Tiamat up.

Waking Tiamat up is a skill.

Because Tiamat has a bad temper when she wakes up, and it takes at least three hugs to calm her down!

[If it were just a kiss, one would be enough! What a waste!]

"Aren't we taking Gretchen with us today?" Merlin asked before they set off.

"Gresh only reunited with her parents yesterday. It's good for her to rest. For artists, rest is also a way to gather material and gain inspiration."

For both artists and writers, anything they do can be considered a source of inspiration.

This is so convenient...

……

"Is this the other world? Do you know who I am, my friend?" After arriving in this other world for the first time, Yukari Yakumo, in her excitement, called over a passerby boy.

"Huh? Hello, beautiful lady." The woman blushed instantly when she saw a stunningly beautiful woman striking up a conversation with her.

There is no denying that Yukari Yakumo is indeed an unparalleled beauty.

Moreover, the mysterious aura carried by the sage-like demon is deadly to humans, making it even easier for people to become addicted.

"Why are you blushing like a teapot? I'm asking you, do you even know me?"

"N-I don't know him," the boy said nervously.

"I'm cosplaying as the Youkai Sage Yakumo Yukari. It's from Touhou Project. Haven't you played this game?" Yakumo Yukari rephrased.

"Touhou Project? Is that some kind of obscure little game?" The boy scratched his head.

"Hahahaha! That's hilarious, damn it!" Merlin next to him burst out laughing without any restraint.

"What are you laughing at? Does he not know me but he knows you? Maybe he doesn't like watching anime?" Yukari Yakumo said angrily.

"Oh, this is Merlin, right? And this is Chen Luo, the Root Grail? The cosplay looks amazing!" The boy looked at Chen Luo and Merlin with some surprise and then moved closer.

As it turns out, for the boy, the mature older sister figure like Yukari Yakumo was too much of a shock, so much so that he dared not approach her. Therefore, it was better for him to play with boys his own age.

"...Damn it, this child must be too young. I'll go find an older one."

Yukari Yakumo is quite aware of the "age" of the Touhou Project game.

"Alright, stop struggling, Zi. You don't even have an image in this world. Or rather, the entertainment system in this world is completely different, and it doesn't overlap with 90% of the cultural works in my world."

"So what's going on between you two?"

"Maybe it's because the two of us are quite popular in Wen Chaogong's Time Travel Guide," Chen Luo shrugged.

"Merlin is one thing, but Chen Luo, how come you've become an anime character, and a Root Grail at that? Which unlucky author created you? Why are you so popular?" Yukari Yakumo expressed her incomprehension.

"It was created by me, the unlucky author," Genyuan said somewhat resentfully from the side.

"!!!"

"Yukari Yakumo, you're in big trouble! You went to the Root of Me, but you've offended the Root Vortex!"

"Uh, I was just kidding... So what do we do now? We don't have my image, so do we have to make one right now? There's not enough time, is there?" Yukari Yakumo quickly changed the subject.

For Yukari Yakumo, who is preparing to head to the Vortex of Roots, no method of strengthening herself can be missed.

“There is a way…” Chen Luo said.

"What method?"

"Go find Altair, then steal her plagiarism guide to time travel. It should contain the finished game and special distribution channels. Then, release the game under the name of Setsuna's favorite person, and use Setsuna's fame to make the game popular in a short time," Chen Luo said.

There's a lot of talk online about how everything Setsuna produces is a masterpiece, so if you don't use the abilities of the Herrscher of Knowledge, this is the only way to make your work popular.

"Where is Altair? I'm going to find her right now!" Yukari Yakumo rolled up her sleeves.

After Merlin made a trip around this world, he immediately gained double the combat power thanks to the power of recognition... Although his combat power would slowly return to normal as the power of recognition decreased, it was still enough to make Yakumo Yukari envious to tears.

If it weren't for adhering to the principles set by Chen Luo and not causing too much impact on this world, Yukari Yakumo would have already traveled to various worlds after arriving in this world.

Yukari Yakumo's Boundary Ability also grants her the ability to traverse dimensions.

For Yukari Yakumo, this world is a treasure trove!

Although items obtained in the story world of this world may gradually lose their effectiveness in another world, Yukari Yakumo's Boundary Ability can temporarily turn illusions into reality.

Even if it's used as a one-time consumable item, it can still make Yakumo Yukari a fortune!

But according to Chen Luo: You need the world's approval for this kind of thing. Otherwise, if you get wanted, don't blame me for not warning you.

Considering that being wanted might damage Chen Luo's reputation and lead to her being thrown into the Mountain and River Design Drawing for a month of labor reform, Yakumo Yukari immediately became obedient.

"Altair seems to be... inside the Creation Base right now?" Chen Luo glanced at Merlin subconsciously.

"Then come with me." Merlin nodded, then re-entered the bar and opened another door.

Merlin entered the bar from within the created base, so there are coordinates.

Merlin, Yukari Yakumo, and Chen Luo were ready to go, but when they arrived near the conference room of the created beings, they were still confused by the scene in front of them.

At this point, the created misunderstanding had become a ruin, and Altair flew alone in the sky, facing many created beings, but seemed somewhat anxious.

"Alter, what are you doing here again?" the female knight asked, frowning.

"Me? I'm here to confess my feelings. Where's Chen Luo? Tell him to come out and see me." Altair seemed a little anxious.

"???" ×n

The other created beings were filled with shock, as were Merlin and Yukari Yakumo.

Tiamat's eyes also turned dangerous.

Tiamat does believe that leaving behind excellent results is important, as is finding an excellent partner.

Yesterday, Tiamat asked Chen Luo if he had a lover, and if so, she hoped he could bring him over so she could conduct a Tiamat screening—eliminating anyone who might be one!

Tiamat already has a mother and doesn't want to find another one!

Of course, this idea only lasted until Tiamat met the puppeteer.

But what's up with Altair? Everyone else is one thing, but what's with this Altair?

"Chen Luo? Didn't you just meet him once? How did you manage to win him over?" Merlin asked in a low voice.

Is this what they call love at first sight? Does Merlin want to learn that too?

Although Merlin tried to keep his voice down, it did not escape Altair's ears. Altair immediately spotted a group of four people emerging from the corner.

Especially Chen Luo.

So Altair drifted directly this way.

“Mr. Grail, be careful…” Meteora and Serega shouted.

Meanwhile, Mamika Kiraki ran straight towards them, but Alice Tria grabbed her by the collar, leaving her suspended in mid-air.

You're a magical girl, can you please stop fighting in close combat all the time?

You're sending someone to their death from afar, aren't you?

Tiamat walked up to Chen Luo and stared directly at Altair without fear, like a mother protecting her child!

Altair felt a headache coming on when he saw Tiamat blocking his way.

Tiamat can be considered one of the strongest fighters in the Moon World. Although she is currently in her infant form, her Noble Phantasm seems to be able to temporarily unleash some of her power.

Even Altair would find it troublesome to deal with that form of Tiamat.

Moreover, the key point is that Altair and Chen Luo seem to have a very close relationship. If Altair really beats up Tiamat, he's afraid Chen Luo won't cooperate later.

"It's alright, let me handle it," Chen Luo said, patting Tiamat on the shoulder.

"Yes, but Mom... Xiao Luo, you must be wary of bad women!" Tiamat reminded her.

After facing Chen Luo, Altair's anxious expression eased, as if he had breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression also became conflicted.

"I hope you can cooperate with me to complete a mission," Altair said, straightening his clothes and making his expression cold again.

"A mission? Like when you snatch a kid's lollipop, eat it, and then throw the stick at their face?"

"..." Although he didn't know why Chen Luo knew about this, Altair still nodded.

"The 'Plagiarist's Guide to Time Travel' mission, right? You promised me you'd give it to me next time we meet," Chen Luo reminded him.

“I mean what I say,” Altair said coldly.
