Their commission was suspicious.

Chen Luo had seen Herrschers of Knowledge take out their swords and use them for sword control when traveling long distances, but he was the first person to use sword control so casually as to do so like Xiao You.

"You don't even recognize this? This is an Armored Doll Pet Egg. Armored Dolls hatch from these." Chen Luo looked at Xiao You with surprise.

"!!! Who are you trying to fool? I've read a lot of books, don't try to fool me!" Xiao You wasn't as easily fooled as the Book of Cangxuan.

If Xiao You, this artificial intelligence, is a copy of, or rather, the original form of, the artificial intelligence of the Holy Sword Durandal, then it belongs to the wisdom of the previous civilization era.

Strictly speaking, the Book of Cangxuan is an armed puppet created by Cangxuan and Danzhu before they were about to die in this era, to accompany the old man on his journey.

Therefore, it's quite normal that the Book of Azure doesn't understand the pre-civilization as well as Durandal.

“But what I have in my hand is really an armed doll pet egg! And why don’t you think about how you got out of there?” Chen Luo asked.

"Yes, how did I get out? No, I'm very well-read, you really don't lie to me, I know about the technology of armed puppets," Xiao You declared again.

Ugh, this doll is such a hassle. Maybe I should just throw it into my doll collection.

"That's all knowledge from a pre-civilization era. Modern armed dolls all hatch from eggs. If you don't believe me, wait until tonight and see if the egg in my hand is an armed doll pet egg."

"And what are you so smug about? You might as well have hatched from an egg; you were unpacked from a gift box."

"..." Xiao You fell into a little self-doubt.

Because Xiaoyou really didn't know how she came to be.

"Oh, right, let me introduce you. This is Bianca's mother." Chen Luo pointed to Cecilia, who had been watching them.

"What? Bianca's mother? What a beautiful young woman! Mother-in-law! I like you!" The sword beneath Xiaoyou lay at an angle, allowing her to look at Cecilia from the sword at an almost 45-degree angle.

But after Xiaoyou learned Cecilia's identity, she jumped up and used the Holy Sword as a springboard to pounce on her.

"Holy crap, they stole my lines!"

Chen Luo suddenly felt a deep loathing for the broken sword that had stolen his mother-in-law's.

Chen Luo watched with envy as Xiao You rubbed her face against the other person's slime.

Cecilia was caught off guard by Xiaoyou's sudden attack.

Thinking of asking Chen Luo for help, she found that Chen Luo seemed to be fiddling with his communicator.

No, Cecilia, I can't let that bastard Xiaoyou stand there forever! I'm going to rebel!

10、9、8、7、6、5、4、3……

"jingle!"

The familiar sound of wind chimes, and the sound of hurried running.

“Mom!” A clear and strong voice rang out from the doorway.

Yae Sakura and Yae Rin, who had been blocking the doorway, moved aside when they saw someone coming.

Then they saw a blonde girl holding a black and white spear, and with her other hand she was pulling on the lower half of someone's corpse.

Although it was a bit startling at first, a closer look revealed that the corpse looked more like some kind of robot or something similar.

The blonde girl was staring at Cecilia in disbelief, her eyes welling up with tears.

"Hmm?" Cecilia also heard the voice and saw the person.

But when she heard the other person call her "Mom," Cecilia looked around.

Who is her mother?

Oh, wait, doesn't this girl look just like the little doll I'm holding?

If Cecilia remembers correctly, Chen Luo once said that the person who looked like this was his daughter, named Durandal, whose real name was Kiana.

Although Cecilia didn't understand why there were two Kianas, she remembered Chen Luo saying that if she called the other Kiana, the other person would be very happy.

"Kiana?" Cecilia asked tentatively.

Upon hearing the name, Durandal was struck dumb. She abandoned her gun, tossed the other half of her body aside, and ran towards Cecilia.

“Compared to…” And the Holy Sword Durandal also saw Durandal.

Xiao You inherited most of the data from the artificial intelligence of the Holy Sword Durandal, so she also had a very good impression of Durandal. Therefore, when Durandal pounced towards her, Xiao You also pounced towards Durandal.

"Slap!" Durandal slapped the little doll that looked like her, which was lunging at her, and sent it flying toward Chen Luo.

Even if Durandal were to guess using slimes, she would know that this was Chen Luo's doing.

After all, Chen Luo always says he's a puppeteer.

He might have created this puppet just to make fun of himself.

“…Anka?” Xiao You, who had spun around several times before crashing into Chen Luo’s arms, looked completely bewildered.

Huh? What happened?

"Silly girl, does Bianca have time to chat with you right now?" Chen Luo poked Xiao You's soft, chubby face before quietly climbing over the bar.

Then, under Yae Sakura's astonished gaze, he picked up the half-corpse that Durandal had thrown at the bar entrance.

"Yes, that's right, it's Soul Steel." Chen Luo nodded in surprise and put the item into his backpack.

Soul steel is a good material for making dolls.

As for the source...

Yes, thank you Bishop Otto for his selfless dedication!

We should ask Durandal where she threw her upper body later; after all, we can't let it go to waste.

Chapter 304 Yae Sakura's Heart, Known to All

"So, Chen Luo, what's going on? Why doesn't Mom remember me?" Durandal, sitting close to Cecilia, held Cecilia's somewhat bewildered hand and asked Chen Luo.

Although seeing herself again, and hearing her call her Kiana, Durandal was indeed very excited.

However, the fact that her mother had amnesia made Durandal a little uneasy.

Although she could indeed sense a strange feeling and confirm that this was her real mother, the amnesia issue still needed to be addressed.

As for why we can be so sure... besides Durandal's own reasons, it's also thanks to the "taste of mom" in Chen Luo's bar.

That really tastes like mom's cooking.

"Well... she's definitely resurrected, and her soul is definitely my mother-in-law's original soul, but her body isn't," Chen Luo explained somewhat embarrassedly.

"Mother-in-law?" Durandal's eyes sharpened instantly.

"Ah...it's her! She was the one who called me 'mother-in-law' just now, so I accidentally blurted it out." Chen Luo immediately pulled Xiao You over to take the blame.

“…” Durandal glanced at Cecilia, seemingly seeking an answer.

"Hmm." Cecilia thought for a moment and then nodded.

“Go on,” Durandal said.

"As you know, Cecilia was the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal in the past. Her physical strength should be similar to yours now. In addition, she also has the Holy Blood generated after a certain experiment. But the body she is using now is a clone, and the strength of the clone cannot be fully replicated by the technology level of 10 years ago."

"And Cecilia herself is definitely a kind person, so her soul has a certain special quality."

"The special nature of the soul, combined with the weakness of the body, makes it impossible for the other party's body to withstand the strength of the soul, thus resulting in the sealing of memories."

"But don't panic. As long as the opponent's physical strength gradually increases, the memories sealed deep in their soul will also be slowly released." Chen Luo said, looking at Durandal who was listening to his explanation with utmost seriousness.

"Hmm, I didn't understand."

"...Why are you listening so intently if you didn't understand?" Chen Luo's face darkened.

"Even though I didn't understand, as long as I strengthen my training and get my physical strength back to its original peak level, it'll be fine, right?"

Although Durandal doesn't understand matters of the soul, she knows how to extract the key points.

"Not entirely. Actually, 8% of my original peak performance would be enough. Or, if I had other techniques related to the soul, it might be possible to help my mother-in-law recover to normal sooner," Chen Luo said.

"...Could you please not mention the words 'mother-in-law'?" Durandal said after a moment of silence.

"It's all her fault." Chen Luo then sent Xiao You over.

"So where did you find this strange doll? Can you give it to me so I can destroy it?" Durandal looked at the doll with hostility.

Yulandel always felt that this thing was created by Chen Luo to tease her.

"Waaaaah, Bianca, I never thought you'd hate me this much after all these years? I went through all that trouble, using the Armored Doll technology to become an Armored Doll to find you. Is this how you treat me?" Hearing Durandal's rude words, Xiao You slumped onto the bar, hugged Chen Luo's arm, and started crying.

"Little...Little You?!" This tone and voice made Durandal instantly realize who it was.

"You, how did you get here? And why are you with Chen Luo? What will happen if you leave World Bubble? No, no, how could you possibly leave?" After confirming the other party's identity, Durandal went into a daze.

"Hmph, don't ask, the answer is Honkai energy." Xiao You was quite satisfied with Durandal's shocked expression and simply tossed Chen Luo's arm aside.

"Sigh, it's been years since I last saw you and you've grown into a beautiful young woman. Congratulations! Your measurements must be around 9 now, right?" Xiao You guessed, looking Youlandail up and down.

"Can't you be serious for once? I'm asking you a question!" Durandal, the Holy Sword, was a little annoyed by the still unserious attitude of Durandal.

However, at least it can confirm for Durandal that this is indeed the Holy Sword Durandal, since there shouldn't be anyone else who would be so unconventional besides the Holy Sword Durandal.

"Well, you don't really need to worry so much... To be precise, I am the Holy Sword Durandal, but not entirely the Holy Sword Durandal. Just think of me as another version of myself in another world. The real Holy Sword Durandal is still where it belongs. So stop talking and give me a hug first!" After saying that, Xiao You pounced on Durandal.

The true nature of a pervert is fully revealed.

Chen Luo didn't bother with the slightly chaotic situation among these people and slowly moved to the side of Yae Sakura and Yae Rin.

"Ask whatever you want. I noticed you glancing this way at least ten times just now," Chen Luo asked Yae Sakura.

Yae Sakura's heart is known to all.

"That, it's... Master..."

"Call me boss." Chen Luo snapped his fingers.

"Boss, where's Karen?"

"You asked me? I want to know too. I also want to know why I didn't revive Kallen." Chen Luo almost cried when Yae Sakura mentioned this.

Why didn't I revive Kallen? I don't know either.

"What do you mean?"

"Simply put, my future self didn't leave any information, and Karen wasn't among the people my future self resurrected the Gray Serpent. I don't know why." Chen Luo shook his head.

"Then... does that mean Kallen can't be resurrected?" Yae Sakura asked with some concern.

Although Yae Sakura was happy that her younger sister had been resurrected, she found it hard to accept that Kallen could not be resurrected.

Yae Sakura's mood was like a rollercoaster, going up and down, making her heart race.

"I don't think so. If that were the case, I would definitely bring it up in the future. The fact that the other party didn't prepare any items for me or leave any information suggests that the situation might be a bit complicated." Chen Luo shook his head.

Chen Luo knew himself well; if he couldn't accomplish this, he would have mentioned it in his previous letter.

“So we can only wait and see. Who knows, Karen might suddenly walk in from this bar one day. Anyway, this bar already connects the previous civilization and the next civilization, so connecting it to a time 500 years ago isn’t impossible, right?” Chen Luo said, pointing to the bar entrance.

"Ding-a-ling!" The wind chimes suddenly rang out.

This startled Chen Luo.

Holy crap, could it be that Kallen really came out of that door?

"Huh? Alo, why are you blocking the doorway? Do you have anything to eat? I'm hungry," Cangxuan Zhishu poked his little head out and asked.

"...Eat, eat, eat! How about you eat yourself to death!" Chen Luo glared at Cang Xuanzhi Book with annoyance.

That wretched Book of Azure Mystery, it wasted my emotions.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"What do you want to eat?" Chen Luo asked.

Even a ten-stone rough stone is still a rough stone.

You can't look down on these 10 raw stones just because you just earned several thousand raw stones.

What if you're just 10 Primogems away from buying a god-tier ability?

Chen Luo never thinks he has too many raw stones.

"Osmanthus cake and... um, super... super deluxe fried tofu." Cangxuan Zhishu recalled for a while before remembering what the little fox's lunch was called today.

Although the little fox can't speak, if it wants to eat something, it must be fried tofu.
