Their commission was suspicious.

Chen Luo admitted that if he were to fight Durandal head-on without using some tactics, it would indeed be quite difficult to deal with Durandal, who was so reckless and impulsive.

The main point is that if Chen Luo were to fight Durandal, Durandal would probably engage in close combat and then use the Black Abyss White Flower to poke several holes in Chen Luo's body.

However, Chen Luo's attack method is probably to use the Void Treasury Projection to send out dozens or even hundreds of insane, modified cloud bombs, along with a modified fireball spell, to attack the opponent.

Although he could indeed defeat Durandal, Chen Luo was somewhat worried about St. Freya Academy.

Let alone St. Freya Academy, Chen Luo was starting to worry about this island nation.

Therefore, it's better to win by using intelligence.

At least Chen Luo is confident in his chess skills.

after all……

"You lost, the five stars aligned."

"No, this can't happen again! You gave me a penny."

"No, I'll give you a four-point handicap."

"..."

"You lost again."

"This is not scientific!"

"But this is really messed up."

"Lady Durandal, how about I play chess?" Rita couldn't stand Durandal's confidence being completely shattered to the point of doubting her own intelligence, and decided to teach Chen Luo a lesson in chess.

"Sorry, Five-Star Combo... General! No, Absolute Kill! There's no way to stop it!"

"..."

"Again!"

"Sister Ta, don't come anymore. Playing games will only ruin your life. Calm down."

"No! Let's try again!"

Chen Luo suddenly felt a pang of regret, regretting that he hadn't refused Sister Tazi back then.

Chen Luo originally thought that Rita would be fine after losing once or twice, but Rita insisted that Chen Luo play with her 10 times. Please, it must be tiring to throw half a pound of chess pieces onto the chessboard every time.

While complaining about Sister Ta's unwillingness to admit defeat, Chen Luo poured the half-frame of chess pieces in his hand onto the chessboard.

"Alas, how lonely it is to be invincible."

"..." Sister Ta looked at the chessboard in front of her and fell into deep thought.

Rita didn't understand why she lost so quickly. Rita felt something was strange, but she couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.

"See? I've made Durandal question her existence," Chen Luo said, turning to Kiana behind him.

[Ding! Mission complete]

Well, it's more than just questioning her existence; Durandal is practically becoming withdrawn when it comes to playing chess.

Durandal still doesn't understand why she could lose even when her opponent gave her a four-point handicap.

【Sheng Tian Ban Jin Zi】

Even if you were to play chess against the heavens, you could still defeat them by half a pound.

The effect is that when playing any board game, it can be transformed into Gomoku, and the user will receive half a pound of pieces each round.

At the start of the round, half a pound of chess pieces are poured onto the chessboard. The player who achieves a five-star straight wins the game.

It's a pretty simple and straightforward skill. If Chen Luo were to use this in a game world that's primarily based on chess, wouldn't he be unprecedented and unparalleled?

Even if I give you a four-piece handicap in Gomoku, you still can't win!

"Look! There's a UFO!" Theresa, who was sitting opposite Chen Luo, said, pointing behind Chen Luo.

Chen Luo not only didn't turn around, but looked at Theresa as if she were an idiot.

Even if you said, "Look, there's a Honkai Beast," I would believe you. But what's with the UFO?

Chen Luo washed the basket of chess pieces in his hand without any expression.

“Hmm…” Theresa, who lost, glanced at Chen Luo unwillingly.

"By the way, Chen Luo, what did you want to see me about?" Theresa remembered the important matter.

"Oh, here's the thing, I want to get my friend's sister enrolled and recommend her to St. Freya Academy," Chen Luo said.

As they talked, Chen Luo and Theresa started another game of chess. This time, Chen Luo did not use his "Winning Half a Pound" skill, but instead played a normal game against his opponent.

Although "Sheng Tian Ban Jin Zi" is a passive skill, Chen Luo can choose to play only one piece when making a move.

“Hmm, a friend’s sister? Chen Luo, let me warn you, although we have a good relationship, St. Freya Academy doesn’t accept just anyone. You need to have Valkyrie aptitude, which simply means you need sufficient Honkai energy resistance. Otherwise, you can’t become a Valkyrie. You should know that.” Theresa said seriously.

However, if Theresa could maintain the serious elements without changing Chen Luo's flag, it would be even more serious.

"You don't need to worry about that. Her Honkai energy adaptability is definitely high enough." Chen Luo was, after all, asking someone to do a favor, so he ignored Theresa's cheating.

As for the issue of Honkai energy adaptability, if Ling still needs to worry about this problem, then Ling might as well just leave the group.

Even if Ling were to directly contact the core of a Herrscher now, nothing serious would happen to her.

Even when not in an awakened state, the Herrscher core is extremely difficult to preserve. If it encounters even the slightest stimulation from Honkai energy, it will immediately increase its own Honkai energy level.

That's why Wendy was used as a gem container after it was discovered that her legs could perfectly preserve the Desire Gem.

Otherwise, with the technology of Destiny, as long as the person is not dead and the experiment has failed, it is still possible to restore the person's legs.

Of course, it's only a possibility.

Even if Ling is a terrible Herrscher of Corruption, she is still a Herrscher, and her ability to control Honkai energy goes without saying.

Even if Theresa, a semi-fusion warrior, were to die from Honkai energy, Rin would be perfectly fine.

"How tall is it?"

“As tall as Theresa.”

“…Are you looking for trouble?” Theresa crushed a chess piece.

"Just kidding. I was actually talking about that Herrscher of Corruption from the previous civilization. I've told you about this before, right? She lost her powers for various reasons, but she still has Honkai energy adaptability, so she naturally has the potential to become a Valkyrie," Chen Luo said.

"Hey, hey, hey, no way, are you mistaken? Huh? Our St. Freya Academy is a Valkyrie Academy, what do you mean by sending a Herrscher here?" Even someone as carefree as Theresa found Chen Luo's proposal somewhat hard to accept.

Although I, Theresa, slack off, don't go to work, and don't raise Himeko's salary, I am still a good school principal.

“I already said, the other party no longer has Herrscher powers. At most, they are just an ordinary person with a slightly higher Honkai energy adaptability. Besides, this isn’t the first time you’ve recruited a Herrscher.” Chen Luo glanced at Raiden Mei, who smiled sheepishly.

"Besides, you get used to it."

Anyway, you'll experience this a lot in the future.

Is it possible that one day you'll wake up and find that everyone around you, except you, has become a Herrscher?

"What do you mean 'get used to it'? How can you get used to this? However... if the other party really loses their Herrscher powers, then we can consider it. But we haven't even assessed them yet. It's not something a responsible headmaster should do to rashly bring them into St. Freya."

Theresa hesitated for a moment before insisting.

Theresa had never met Ling.

"This isn't a big problem. If you come to the bar tonight, you should be able to meet the other party, and you might even meet some rather strange people. You could even communicate directly with the other party's parents to reach an agreement," Luo said.

"Wait, something's not right. That Herrscher of Corruption, according to you, wasn't she from over 5 years ago? How am I supposed to find her now?" Theresa was dumbfounded for a moment.

"There's no need to worry about that. I can summon spirits. All we need to do is summon the other woman's soul," Chen Luo said.

"!!!"

Chen Luo clearly saw Theresa opposite him and was startled.

"You...you can summon spirits?" Theresa instinctively crossed her arms, her eyes darting around nervously.

"Of course I won't laugh myself to death, I was just trying to scare you," Chen Luobai said with a wave of his hand.

Chen Luo never expected that Theresa would be afraid of ghosts.

"Chen Luo!" Theresa slammed her hand on the table angrily, then crushed one of Chen Luo's chess pieces on the board with lightning speed.

“But I’ll definitely learn it in the future,” Chen Luo said.

"By the way, what were you trying to say just now?" Chen Luo tilted his head and asked Delifa.

"Uh, well, I, I just wanted to ask if you're hungry? Have you had lunch?" After hearing that Chen Luo might really have learned how to summon ghosts, Theresa suddenly chickened out again.

"But Alo, how come you can summon ghosts?" Theresa asked timidly.

"Well, ghosts do exist in our world, and they can be harmed with just spiritual power, so naturally there are corresponding methods to summon them. I personally think that this kind of thing is quite convenient. Sometimes, if you encounter a case where there are no witnesses to the story, you can just make the dead speak, right?" Chen Luo explained.

This is also Chen Luo's true thought.

In Chen Luo's main world, summoning souls is not a difficult thing, nor is it a particularly secretive method, but Chen Luo has indeed not obtained such a thing yet.

However, this is one of the skills that Chen Luo will be learning in the coming period of time.

"Then what about the Herrscher of Corruption's sister? Wasn't the Herrscher of Corruption's sister dead for over 5 years?" Theresa asked.

Although Theresa didn't know the specifics of the Herrscher of Corruption's sister, she only knew that there was such a Herrscher, and that she had a good relationship with Chen Luo.

But according to normal human thinking, how could an ordinary person possibly live for 5 years?

Therefore, that older sister must have died.

"Well, Ling's older sister was a very powerful warrior, so when the previous civilization perished, her memory was preserved. Now, her sister's memory is acting as her guardian, and you should be able to meet her tonight," Chen Luo explained.

“But no matter what, it’s not right to let a Herrscher whose background is unknown come to school…” Theresa was still a little hesitant.

"Theresa, is there a teacher at your school named Yae Sakura?" Chen Luo suddenly asked.

“Oh, yes, there is.” Theresa nodded.

Although Theresa doesn't usually do anything serious, so she might not remember the names of the new teachers, she has a very deep impression of Yae Sakura.

Because the moment this person saw him, he looked at him with a strange gaze, as if he were seeing an old flame.

Therefore, Theresa was very impressed with her.

However, Theresa didn't dislike Yae Sakura; rather, she had a special feeling for her.

"Just let her be Ling's guardian while she's at school," Chen Luo said.

"What's the connection between Yae Sakura and this Ling?" Theresa asked curiously.

"That Yae Sakura is the reincarnation of Ling's older sister 5 years later," Chen Luo said, spouting nonsense with a straight face.

"real or fake?"

"Of course it's fake, you don't actually believe it, do you?" Chen Luo looked at Theresa, who seemed quite easy to fool, with surprise.

Honestly, if Theresa were really that easy to fool, Chen Luo was confident he could trick her into having a baby...

cough cough.

"Chen Luo!"

"I can summon spirits."

"Oh." Theresa, who had just stood up and was about to get back to her senses, sat back down.

“Of course, since I recommended you, I will pay tuition,” Chen Luo said.

"Tuition fees? What tuition fees?" Theresa looked at Chen Luo curiously.

Theresa knew that if Chen Luo said those words, the tuition he would have to pay would definitely be quite special.

"Hmm, what about tuition fees... I suddenly realized that now is a great opportunity. Since everyone is here, let's be open and honest and have some private conversations that only we can hear." Chen Luo looked around at everyone in the special private room and suddenly smiled.

Yulandel, who had been casually ignored by Chen Luo, felt a jolt in her heart upon hearing his words.

Is this guy trying to reveal his real identity?

What should I do? I'm not ready yet, and just now I beat up Kiana for half an hour.

Is it really appropriate to say this now?

And wouldn't it seem a bit undisclosed to tell everyone this news like this?

Yulandel always felt that there was something deeper in Chen Luo's gaze, but she wasn't sure if it was just her imagination. In any case, Yulandel's mind was in turmoil.

Just then, Durandal suddenly felt a hand take hers.
