Their commission was suspicious.

Special requirements: You will receive a progress bar after accepting the task. You will receive all rewards once the progress bar reaches 100%.

(You will immediately receive 200 Primogems + a random reward upon purchase. Subsequent rewards will be distributed based on the sharing activity.)

Goodness, it turns out to be a long-term mission.

Fortunately, even without further rewards, the initial stage rewards are enough. After all, while Primogems are important, random rewards are even more so.

"I'm the one buying things, why are you more anxious than me? Besides, 10 seconds isn't enough time for a normal person to think," Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Mebius.

In fact, Chen Luo was already quite satisfied that Mebius could provide some of the raw materials for this matter.

“But I think normal people don’t need to think about it. So just buy it.” Just as Chen Luo said, Möbius was now even more anxious than Chen Luo.

Although Möbius respects whatever decision Chen Luo makes, he doesn't mind guiding the decision-making process himself.

Just kidding, the knowledge of trees and the sea is priceless.

"Okay, okay, I got it, I've decided to buy it." Chen Luo nodded.

"Great! Have you bought it yet?"

"without……"

"You'd better hurry up and buy it."

“The problem is that I’ve never bought this before, and just the knowledge about trees and the sea is definitely a huge amount of information. I’m worried that if I buy it now, I might be in a daze for a day or two to digest all this knowledge. And I promised to report to your lab tomorrow, so in order to get priority for reporting to your lab, I’ve decided to buy it after I’ve reported there,” Chen Luo said.

“What’s more important than going to the lab to report for duty? Buying Tree and Sea is no problem. I’ll allow you to delay for another day, or even a few more days!” Möbius expressed his understanding and permission for Chen Luo to postpone his report to the lab.

“I don’t think so. I’ve already promised you several times, and I really can’t go back on my word again.” Chen Luo shook his head at Mebius’s statement.

"I think it's fine! You've stood me up so many times already, one more delay won't hurt. Knowledge is more important right now."

“No, I think keeping the appointment is more important.” Chen Luo continued to shake his head.

LOL, if I don't go to the lab tomorrow, will you compensate me for the lost mission gems?

Don't forget, Chen Luo also accepted the task of reporting to the lab on time.

“…” Mebius rubbed his forehead in exasperation at Chen Luo.

This person is really...

When I tell you to report to the lab on time, you don't; when I tell you not to report on time, you still insist on going.

There's no place for you in the lab! You don't need to come!

Mebius really wanted to say that to Chen Luo.

Mebius was now unsure whether to be happy that Chen Luo valued their agreement or angry that Chen Luo refused to buy the knowledge.

Seeing this situation, Chen Luo felt helpless; the current situation had reached a point where neither side could back down.

After all, Chen Luo was after the raw stones, while Möbius was after knowledge.

Saying that there's no room for compromise is a bit of an exaggeration. Anyway, even if we make Mebius wait, it's only one more day.

Why is it that the commission to report to the lab has a time limit, while the commission to purchase knowledge has no time limit?

"Um, Snake, I have another option, how about you..."

"Don't bother me, go play somewhere else." Mebius waved his hand dismissively.

Mebius is now terrified that Chen Luo will bring up something he is particularly interested in, and then, for some ridiculous reason, he will suffer from extreme procrastination.

Mebius said his blood pressure had gone up.

"Oh, okay." After being firmly rejected, Chen Luo could only take out his talent upgrade card by himself and scan his talents.

As someone who suffers from decision-making difficulties, having to upgrade only one talent when he can't have it all is a torment for Chen Luo.

Chen Luo originally wanted to ask Möbius for his opinion, but Möbius seemed a little angry.

Herrscher of Thunder

Herrscher of the Void

Those who understand the law

侵蚀之律者

The Law of Domination

Fate Line

unlimited

This is Chen Luo's current S-level talent.

Well, it's a mixed bag.

However, although there are many S-level talent options, not all of them are worth upgrading.

The Law of Thunder, the Law of Void, and the Law of Erosion.

Of these three Herrscher abilities, Chen Luo doesn't use the first two much, and the S-rank talent is enough for the last one, so these three can be ruled out for now.

Due to its unique mutability, the Herrscher of Knowledge's abilities are gradually breaking through to a higher level. Since the Herrscher of Knowledge already possesses the potential to break through to a higher level, Chen Luo no longer needs to use precious talent upgrade cards to upgrade it.

So now all that's left are the Herrscher of Domination, Fateline, and Infinity.

There's not much to say about the [Fate Line] ability. The S-rank Fate Line already provides significant support to Chen Luo, and the Fate Line ability inherently possesses a certain high-end attribute.

Chen Luo didn't quite believe that the upper limit of destiny ability was only S-level.

The [Infinite] ability includes the Infinite Serpent and the ability to resurrect.

The resurrection ability... Chen Luo has never used it yet, but the Infinite Serpent is truly powerful.

And the [Herrscher of Domination]...

Although the Herrscher of Domination is truly the weakest among all the Herrschers in terms of combat strength, the trouble she causes to her enemies is truly immense.

Moreover, the Law of Domination holds a special significance for Chen Luo.

Puppeteer.

Rather than saying that the Stigmata Puppet Master can better assist the Herrscher of Domination's abilities and characteristics, it would be more accurate to say that the Herrscher of Domination is a byproduct of the Puppet Master.

Don't forget, how did the Law of Domination end up in Chen Luo's hands?

That's because Chen Luo obtained the Puppet Master's Stigmata, which is why the Herrscher of Domination chose Chen Luo.

The Herrscher of Domination, the Puppeteer profession, and the Puppeteer Stigmata are a perfect match.

Moreover, upgrading the Herrscher of Domination's talents is probably even more urgent than upgrading Fateline.

Chen Luo has only recently acquired the Fate Line ability and hasn't fully unlocked its potential yet. Moreover, the Fate Line ability might even be able to level up on its own, given the noble nature of the Fate attribute.

However, Herrscher abilities will not break through levels unless there are special circumstances, because these are powers granted to Herrschers by Honkai.

Note that it is a gift.

Whether it can be taken back is another matter, but it does limit the scope.

They are at their peak from birth, with an exceptionally fast initial growth rate, but they cannot surpass that peak.

The reason why talents like the Herrscher, which represent the limits of physics, are only S-rank talents is precisely because of this.

Of course, you can also work hard to learn physics to unleash your full potential.

However... Chen Luo is still exploring the other Herrscher talents, and the potential of the Herrschers he can control has already reached its limit.

Furthermore, as Chen Luo may encounter even stranger enemies with higher talent levels in the future, the dominance of his S-level talent may not be able to completely transform them into puppets.

If Chen Luo were to be betrayed because his talent level wasn't high enough, he would be truly disgusted to death.

And if one's Herrscher of Domination talent is SS-rank...

Is it possible that Chen Luo could gain a follower named "Vortex Demon God" today?

Chapter 389 [Domination: Puppeteer]

Higher-level talents always exert a certain degree of suppression on lower-level talents.

The current levels of the Herrscher of Thunder, Herrscher of Void, and Herrscher of Corruption are sufficient.

The Law of Knowledge, the Fate Line, and the Infinity itself possess growth attributes; they have the potential to break through to higher levels.

At the same time, what Chen Luo urgently needs right now is not overwhelming combat power, because many of Chen Luo's tools can achieve the same level.

No matter how skilled you are, after you get shot, won't you still be laughing like a dog within 10 minutes?

Even Osel laughed for a full 10 minutes, which shows that at least a Demon God-level powerhouse cannot weaken the effect of the Friendship Revolver.

What Chen Luo needs now is a functional talent that can solve most of the commissioned tasks.

Therefore, considering only cost-effectiveness, the functional Law of Domination becomes the best choice.

Moreover, the Herrscher of Domination ability was the earliest S-rank talent Chen Luo obtained, and Chen Luo has already reached the limit of its development.

Because the powers of the Herald of Domination are different from those of other Heralds, the Herald of Domination, regardless of the civilization, is used to deal with others with the power of the group, focusing on the group rather than individual combat strength.

This means that its functionality has an upper limit from the beginning.

No matter how much you try, you'll never come up with anything amazing.

And don't forget, the silk thread that Chen Luo usually uses is itself one of the manifestations of the power of the Law of Domination.

So for now, we can only make do with Infinite and Fate Line.

The Herrscher of Knowledge? There's not much to worry about, because Chen Luo has two Herrschers of Knowledge, which together are roughly equivalent to an SS-level talent.

The Herrscher of Domination's talent has been with Chen Luo for so long, yet its price has never increased.

And the price of Infinity keeps rising as it is devoured by the Infinity Serpent.

Furthermore, the unlimited resurrection power and the Infinite Serpent itself already make it expensive, not just 1 Primogems.

The resurrection itself costs 1 Primogems, and the artificial collapse form costs 8000 Primogems, for a total of 18,000 Primogems.

Of course, due to various discounts, Chen Luo ended up buying it for a total of 8100 crystals.

A 5% discount means you can do whatever you want.

However, after being integrated by Chen Luo, this talent became priced at 15,000 Originium Stones. After consuming a lot of things, undergoing the baptism of the Demon Realm, and eating an Oser, the price became 17000 Originium Stones.

The future is expected.

Chen Luo guessed that for an S-level talent to break through to SS-level, its value would need to be increased to 2 primal stones.

The Fate Line is different. It initially cost 1 Primogems, but perhaps because of the Puppeteer profession, the price increased when it reached Chen Luo, directly rising to 13,000 Primogems.

Well, this clearly shows just how well the Fate Line ability matches Chen Luo, or rather, the [Puppeteer].

Of course, these prices are just a reference; there are many variables involved, but the one thing that remains constant is...

The Herald of Domination started at 1 Primogems, and he still costs 1 Primogems.

It's truly outrageous that it hasn't grown at all.

Talent upgrade cards are unnecessary for talents with potential, as they will automatically level up. They are also not worth using for talents without potential, as leveling them up will be useless.

The power of the Ruler of Domination is due to the influence of the Puppeteer profession and the Puppeteer's Stigmata.

It's like playing a game where you get a skill upgrade card that can level up your character by one level, but you already have several skills at the same level.

Is your skill almost at full proficiency or has no proficiency at all?

If it's not urgent, then the latter is the natural choice.

Coincidentally, Chen Luo doesn't actually need it right now.

Moreover, there are other ways to obtain talent upgrade cards.

If Chen Luo remembered correctly, when the Traveler was fighting Thor in the Pure Land of One Heart, he did seem to have created something related to the wishes of the people.

In short, the goal is to make General Raiden realize his mistake and then abolish the Eye Hunting Edict and the isolationist policy...

Originally, Chen Luo didn't want to go to Inazuma, but thinking about it this way, it seems like he could go and help his dear Ying defeat the evil Thunder General.

Well, Chen Luo wasn't doing this because of any special group rewards or anything like that; he was simply doing what he could to help those in need.

"jingle!"

"Hey, perfect timing, Mona, come here for a second," Chen Luo called out to Mona.
