Their commission was suspicious.

"Sigh, I thought I had 8% of my strength, but now it seems I've lost even more." Yun Lian'er slowly walked to Chen Luo's side and sighed.

"Huh? Is that so?" After seeing the Crimson Lotus Barrier shatter, Chen Luo finally withdrew his Hilichurl Wooden Shield, revealing himself and Paimon behind him.

To be fair, the Hilichurl's wooden shield is really useful. As long as you hide behind it, even the biggest bombardment won't cause any damage.

Moreover, the opponent can also resist the sound wave damage and noise damage generated by the sound waves during the explosion.

Of course, this was fortunately because Yun Lian'er, after being reminded by Chen Luo, did not use any forbidden spells related to fire.

Even so, some different combinations of forbidden spells do indeed produce derivative flames that adhere to the wooden shield.

However, Chen Luo wasn't panicked at all. He discovered that as long as he immediately applied water element to the fire extinguishing bar on the wooden shield—the bar only he could see—once it started to drop, he could quickly put out the flames, maintain the shield's integrity, and even recharge the shield with grass element before it was completely destroyed to restore the health bar.

It now seems that the description of random items can indeed explain most of the functions, but some functions still need to be explored by oneself.

Take, for example, the healing ability of the grass element.

"Eighty percent of the power here is probably even less than the power of the forbidden spells copied in the Great Library. So what you just saw was not the complete state of the forbidden spells."

"If forbidden magic is weakened to 80% of its power, some key special characteristics will not be able to be displayed. So although I have 80% of the original strength, as a mage, I may be weakened even more."

“Unless I use forbidden spells myself. But even then, I might not be able to cast many forbidden spells in five minutes. Moreover, my magic power would be drained, and because of the strange environment of this world, I wouldn't be able to replenish it,” Yun Lian’er said with a sigh.

"I see. In the future, when summoning other people, we should consider the influencing factors between worlds." Chen Luo nodded.

"..." Since Yun Lian'er did not intentionally lower her voice, the young master heard it too.

If the weakened forbidden spells are already this outrageous, just how terrifying are the complete forbidden spells?

When faced with those forbidden spells, the young master had only one thought: why were all the attacks screen-wide?

Fortunately, these full-screen attacks always have one or more "unmanageable" weak points, otherwise the young master would feel unlucky.

"Ah Luo, you have no idea how scared I was when the other person suddenly rushed up and slashed me before I even cast a spell," Yun Lian'er said, tugging at Chen Luo's sleeve as she approached him.

"Hmm, young master is really too awful. I'll beat him up for you later." Chen Luo glared fiercely at the young master.

"..." The young master originally wanted to argue.

Because when the young master slashed through many layers of shields, although he broke through some of the defenses, according to the other party, he probably didn't even manage to destroy half of the passport.

Moreover, when the young master was only half a meter away from the other party but was stopped by the protective barrier, he clearly saw the other party's calm and almost cold eyes, as well as the contempt in his tone.

You're telling me you're scared?

I'm the one who's scared.

To be honest, the young master wanted to speak, but when he looked up at Chen Luo and caught a glimpse of Yun Lian'er's almost indifferent gaze, he shut his mouth.

[If it weren't for Aro's promise to spare your life, do you think you could only use one forbidden spell at a time? Even a weakened forbidden spell, two or three would be enough to shatter the Crimson Lotus Barrier.]

Yun Lian'er stood next to Chen Luo, hoping that this young master would know better.

The forbidden spell copied by Yun Lian'er did indeed have some of its core terrifying power weakened, but in order not to kill the young master, Yun Lian'er weakened the forbidden spell again.

At the same time, it left the opponent with a few weak points, otherwise the opponent would not have been able to escape.

Each forbidden spell is the culmination of hundreds or thousands of years of wisdom from magicians. How could it possibly leave such an obvious flaw that someone who has never been exposed to magic could see it?

As the accompanying magic weapon of the S-level talent, the Great Library allows Yun Lian'er to use as much magic as she wants, as long as she has even a little bit of magic power in her body to activate the pages.

At the same time, activating and unleashing all the forbidden spells accumulated in the entire library is one of Yun Lian'er's greatest trump cards.

Otherwise, Dao would be underestimating the results of Yun Lian's two years of quiet rest in the hospital room.

Yun Lian'er was able to lie in bed for two years, partly because she wanted to play with Chen Luo, and partly because each time she inscribed magic into the book, she had to consume her own magic power. After drawing a few powerful spells, her magic power was almost depleted.

Yun Lian'er's daily routine consisted of lying in a hospital bed, sketching forbidden spells, running out of magic power, reading books while waiting for her magic power to recover, sketching forbidden spells, running out of magic power again...

That's why Yun Lian'er said that the opportunity to use the pages freely without worrying about depleting the stock is extremely precious.

Every mage's training owes a debt to the immense, often unseen, hours of tedious work behind the scenes.

"Chen Luo, although this game was a bit messy, I won according to the rules." After seeing that the other party's conversation had finally stopped, the young master tried to steer the matter back to the main topic.

Although such a humiliating victory was not the kind of victory that the young master, a battle maniac, desired, he was simply unable to deal with this seemingly difficult and unfamiliar mage.

The young master has some experience dealing with the mages of this world, but he has never seen anyone start by casting a shield on themselves and then just standing there randomly casting spells.

The young master initially guessed that the opponent might be in poor health, so he believed that he could win as long as he could launch a close-range attack. This was indeed correct, provided that the opponent did not instantly shield him.

It's true that the opponent is in poor health, but just by standing there with their shield up, the young master can't even scratch them. The opponent doesn't need to expend much energy in battle; they can simply stand there and keep throwing book pages.

As for when the opponent put on the shield... the young master suspects it was when the opponent activated the Crimson Lotus Barrier.

The young master still believed he had a chance of defeating her.

The premise is that the woman in front of you doesn't put a shield on herself before the battle begins.

The outcome of the battle between the two will depend on whether Yun Lian'er puts a shield on herself first or the young master approaches Yun Lian'er first.

Of course, it's no use talking about all this now; what's more important now is to obtain the Heart of God.

Winning is important to the young master, but the heart of God is even more important.

Now is not the time to be stubborn and defiant.

"Of course." Chen Luo was not opposed to the young master's request for a reward, after all, there should be a reward for every commission.

Chen Luo dislikes people who don't give rewards after completing a task, especially those who don't give Chen Luo any rewards.

"This..." Yingmei wanted to say something, but Chen Luo stopped her.

Watching the young master walk step by step toward the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation, Yingmei wanted to stop him, but after glancing at Chen Luo, she gave up.

Speaking of which, the Heart of God is in Chen Luo's hands, so it seems there's no need to worry about the other party taking the Heart of God out of the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Body.

"Ying, are you satisfied with this mission? It was a mission to give the young master a good beating." Seeing that the mission reward was taking a long time to arrive, Chen Luo frantically hinted to Ying.

"Satisfied." Yingmei nodded.

Although Yun Lian'er did leave many weaknesses in her opponent when releasing weakened versions of forbidden spells or magic, the young master couldn't guess correctly every time, so he was hit many times and covered in wounds. If it weren't for the Demon King's Armor, the young master would probably be kneeling on the ground by now.

The young master was in a rather disheveled state, which certainly met the conditions for giving the other party a severe beating.

[Ding! Mission complete]

Mmm, that feels good...

"A Luo, did you summon me to avenge her?" Chen Luo received the reward, but on the other side, he heard Yun Lian'er ask in a strange tone.

Chen Luo turned to look at Yun Lian'er. Her indifferent expression, which seemed to say nothing, inexplicably made Chen Luo feel a strange sense of guilt.

"Ahem, the thing is, it's not that I wanted to help her, it's just that she gave me so much," Chen Luo said, half-jokingly.

"I see. Were you paid?" Yun Lian'er stroked her chin thoughtfully and nodded.

If it's just a simple transaction, then there's nothing that can be done.

"..." The phantom summoned by this soul-summoning bell looks just like the original.

And isn't the other person having a lot of internal thoughts?

"Lian'er, the battle is over now, it's about time for you to leave," Chen Luo said from the side.

"Well, although I'd like to stay a little longer, it seems like time is running out," Yun Lian'er said helplessly, looking at her slowly breaking leg.

"By the way, this is Teyvat, right? And where we are should be the Golden House, right?" Yun Lian'er suddenly asked.

Yun Lian'er's legs have completely disappeared.

"Ah, yes, that's right." Chen Luo nodded.

If Chen Luo remembered correctly, according to Meng Jie, Yun Lian'er did indeed study Genshin Impact for a period of time after learning that she possessed the Eye of God.

So it's normal that they know this is the continent of Teyvat and that this is the Golden Palace.

Or rather, it's perfectly normal.

"If possible, please bring me more Mora here. It seems to be a very good medium for magic." Yun Lian'er said, looking at the Mora scattered all over the Golden House.

At this point, Yun Lian'er had disappeared to the waist level.

"No problem, I'll try to find a reason for you later."

"Well, also, if you could return some of my current memories to my original self, and just to appease me a little, I would be very happy," Yun Lian'er said with a smile.

After saying those words, Yun Lian'er's body completely disappeared...

“Emmm…” Chen Luo listened to Yun Lian’er’s last words and fell into deep thought.

Yun Lian'er's earlier use of the word "perfunctory" naturally referred to her wanting Chen Luo to explain why he was on the Teyvat continent. The fact that she called it perfunctory proves that Yun Lian'er didn't intend to know the whole truth.

She just wanted to know part of the reason, even if it was just a lie to cover it up.

But Yun Lian'er's easygoing nature left Chen Luo somewhat at a loss.

As for the memory issue that Yun Lian'er mentioned, it was something Chen Luo already knew after summoning her.

That is, after Chen Luo summons a friend to fight for him, when the friend disappears, Chen Luo can choose to retain the memory of the friend's help, or even edit it, and then return it to the friend's original body.

It's another rather shameless and despicable feature.

Because memories can be edited, it means that these memory orbs can be used to exert a profound influence on the other person.

After all, the other party can't possibly not even trust their own memories, right?

The word "editing" to some extent represents scoundrels.

Editing is something that can turn black into white and white into yellow.

Using edited memory orbs to achieve certain goals is incredibly easy.

It would be perfect to use it to hide certain dark history or experiences that occurred after the summoning...

Chapter 364 Chen Luo: Foolish! I'll beat you to death, but the Heart of God is still mine!

After Chen Luo stored the memory pearl generated by Yun Lian'er after her disappearance in a newly numbered warehouse, he watched as the young master came over to pry open the heart of the Rock King Emperor.

This memory orb will be returned to Yun Lian'er, but certainly not now.

The young master breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Yun Lian'er disappear.

"Hey, Chen Luo, can your summoned friend only last for 5 minutes?" Yingmei asked quietly.

"Of course not, the duration of her stay depends on what I want her to accomplish."

"When I actually summon her, I want her to complete a task that involves giving the young master a good beating, so she will disappear after the beating is successful."

Of course, Chen Luo could have chosen to ask the other party to extend the time, which was indeed possible, but Chen Luo ultimately gave up on that.

After the truth comes out, it will be quite easy for Yun Lian'er to come and play in another world if she wants to.

"If you want the other party to exist for a longer period of time, you can choose a task with a longer process, such as spending a day with me. Of course, the phantom summoned by this soul-summoning bell has a time limit."

However, before the mission is completed, Chen Luo can also forcibly repatriate the other party.

Moreover, even though the other party has its own consciousness after being summoned, Chen Luo can still force it to complete the task that he wanted to accomplish after summoning it.

It's like Chen Luo summoned Yun Lian'er to give the young master a good beating. Even if Yun Lian'er didn't want to go, she had to go.

Of course, you can't go too far, otherwise the phantom itself can choose to self-destruct. However, the upper limit of "going too far" required for self-destruction is a bit high. Unless you do something crazy or cause trouble, you generally won't reach that level.

In short, the rules for the summoning bell are very flexible, and there are many uses that can be developed.

As expected of a random item, it's terrifying.

Yeah, I feel like this word has been overused, but it's really awesome.

"That's great! With this kind of gadget, wouldn't we be able to call for help whenever we encounter a strong enemy while traveling?" Yingmei said enviously.

"No, you might have misunderstood." Chen Luo shook his head.

"What do you mean?"

“Young Master is unlucky this time. The five cards he drew are all overpowered, each capable of easily defeating him. But actually, the summoning bell has a very wide range. If you're unlucky, it might even summon a Paimon-level powerhouse,” Chen Luo said.

"What? There are actually people who can't beat Paimon?" Yingmei exclaimed in surprise.

"Hey, what do you mean?!" Paimon stomped his foot in the air, annoyed by Yingmei.

"Of course," Chen Luo nodded.

For example, Paimon can't beat Paimon; if the two of them fight, it'll just be a bunch of weaklings pecking at each other.
