Their commission was suspicious.

"Of course I know this is the work of a famous artist. This is a hat designed and made by one of the world's greatest artists. It would be strange if you said it wasn't good-looking. It's just that it wasn't designed for men. There's another style for men." Chen Luo curled his lip.

Although Eden had only recently joined the Firemoth at this time in the previous civilization, and had not yet become close friends with Alicia.

The problem is that in this timeline, Alicia and Eden naturally have a very good relationship.

According to Alicia, this hat is an extremely rare collector's edition that Eden personally designed and hand-sewn.

There are only 14 in total.

Each of the thirteen heroes had a hat, and they also brought along Dr. Chen Luo.

As for Chen Luo's hat, he'll probably have to wait until later to get it.

Furthermore, Alicia later explained that these were not Alicia's fan club hats, but rather hats made based on each person's imprint. The reason they were mistaken for Alicia's fan club logo was simply a coincidence.

Hmm, coincidence...

At the time, Chen Luo was quite curious about what the mark on his hat was, but Alicia just smiled and didn't say anything.

"So, it was you who insisted on wearing a woman's hat, boss," Misaka Mikoto said helplessly.

"Alright, stop making excuses and go ahead. 100 frog jumps shouldn't be a problem for someone with your athletic ability, right?"

Most espers don't have strong physiques, but there are a few exceptions. Apart from the LV5 Primal Stone, Misaka Mikoto herself is also considered to have extremely outstanding athletic ability.

100 frog jumps are definitely not difficult, and the electrical current can also stimulate you, improving your speed and endurance.

"It certainly wasn't difficult, but it just felt really unlucky," Misaka Mikoto said, stroking her chin.

"Oh, would you like to hear about another form of punishment? This one is definitely not tiring," Chen Luo suddenly said.

"Oh, what kind of punishment?" Misaka Mikoto suddenly became interested.

Of course, Misaka Mikoto didn't want to be punished.

"I got hit in the butt with a baseball bat!" Chen Luo said casually.

This is a common form of punishment used by Japanese yakuza groups, typically to punish newcomers.

"!!!" Misaka Mikoto instinctively covered her buttocks.

"But it seems you're a girl, so we definitely can't use such a brutal method. I'll let you pick someone at random and kick their butts."

The meaning of life is... watching high school girls kick each other's butts.

"...Boss, you have such a twisted sense of humor. I think I'll just go do frog jumps instead." After hearing Chen Luo's suggestion, Misaka Mikoto obediently went up to the second floor.

Whether it's being hit on the butt with a baseball bat or being kicked in the butt, neither of these feels like a proper punishment.

Compared to that, 100 frog jumps seem insignificant.

"You really have a twisted sense of humor," the raven beside Chen Luo said, glancing at him.

"Thank you for the compliment."

After giving Raven a perfunctory reply, Chen Luo began to ponder.

This was a question Chen Luo had been pondering even before Misaka Mikoto started mocking Chen Luo's hat.

"Those two unlucky kids, Cangxuan and Danzhu, actually ate my insanely modified Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom!"

When Chen Luo handed the two Heavenly Fragrance Beans to Klein, he was just trying his luck. If he was lucky, he could get more Heavenly Fragrance Beans; if he was unlucky, he would only lose a chance to save someone.

Chen Luo had already prepared for the possibility of damage, but he never expected that the damage would be so... careless.

He died before he could even begin his mission.

This is similar to how the Ice Queen went to retrieve Thor's Heart on behalf of the Lady, but before she could retrieve the Heart, the Lady was gone.

Not even ashes were left.

Although the modified Tianxiang Doukou was originally meant to be eaten, Chen Luo didn't expect that the other party would still eat it despite the sign saying it couldn't be eaten.

Chen Luo understood that Tianxiang Doukou was indeed quite fragrant, so it was possible that he couldn't resist, but were the two of you really that hungry?

So where exactly should this loss be compensated?

The revamped version of the Insane Demon's Heavenly Fragrance Bean has the effect that eating one will not cause any abnormalities, but only when about to die will it be instantly frozen and wrapped in crystal, entering an invincible state.

Although Chen Luo didn't know just how invincible this state was, its minimum level was definitely not low.

Only after the other person eats the second Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom can they wake up.

Chen Luo wasn't sure whether he would be frozen in a near-death state or fully revived after being resurrected, but the high value of this thing was undeniable.

But if you knew this thing was made with 10 [Resurrection Coins], you'd think it was a waste.

"If that's the case, with me still having 8 modified Heavenly Fragrance Beans left, could it be that Cangxuan and Danzhu are still asleep somewhere?" Chen Luo thought, looking at the Heavenly Fragrance Beans in his backpack.

"If I remember correctly, Cangxuan and Danzhu seemed to have become the two Honkai cores that sealed each other within Chiyou's body."

"That is to say..."

"It seems we either have to postpone the Nine Nether Project, or we have to bring forward the plan to restore Fu Hua's memories."

"What we lost from Cangxuan and Danzhu, we must get back from Fu Hua tenfold!"

"They should at least give me a few hundred raw stones. My Tianxiang Doukou..." Chen Luo clutched his chest.

Actually, Chen Luo doesn't need to go through any special commissions or anything like that. He can just casually mention to Fu Hua, "Do you want to revive Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu?"

You can't blame Chen Luo for deliberately creating commissions, since this wasn't done specifically to create commissions.

But things just happened to end there...

Alas, Cangxuan and Danzhu can be said to have resurrected themselves through their own abilities.

The ability to be greedy.

"jingle!"

The wind chimes rang.

Chen Luo looked up and saw a ring flying towards him.

"Oh dear, two more bodies, Otto's bodies. Bianca, aren't you dismantling each other's bodies a bit too often?" Chen Luo said, looking at the two relatively intact Otto Soul Steel bodies in the ring.

"It was just something I did casually when I went to report to him after completing the mission," Durandal said.

"Okay, give me another ring when you're done using it."

Durandal uses a disposable storage ring, so once she takes something out, the ring can no longer be used.

"Here you go. This ring is valid for one year and can be reused. Also, you don't need to bring Otto's Soul Steel corpse anymore; I've already collected 15 sets," Chen Luo said, waving his hand.

"Hmm? 15 sets? What does that mean?" After accepting the storage ring that allowed her to use it freely for a year, Durandal was slightly puzzled by the meaning of this number.

"Here's the thing, I ordered 10 coffins for Otto in the other world, but because of a big promotion, they gave me 15 more, making a total of 25."

“I gave the 10 coffins I bought to Otto, and I kept the remaining 15 that were given away as gifts.”

“Now that the 15 coffins are full, there’s no need for Otto’s soul steel body,” Chen Luo said.

"...You want Otto's body to put it in a coffin?" Durandal raised an eyebrow.

“Yes, but not entirely,” Chen Luo said.

"So if I dismantle Otto's body in the future, I'll just leave it there for recycling?"

Soul Steel is very difficult to destroy, which is why it is used by Destiny to make weapons.

Durandal usually does more dismantling than destroying Otto's body, because destroying Soulsteel is really troublesome.

Therefore, if Otto's damaged body is recycled and reused, there won't actually be much loss of Soul Steel materials.

It's probably like modeling clay, a mixture of different types of modeling clay. As long as you don't lose one piece, no matter how you change its shape, it's still the same amount of modeling clay.

Unless you're so bored that you have to grind the clay to dust.

So if Durandal leaves Otto's dismantled body in its place, repairing Otto will only require some manpower at most.

"Whatever makes you happy," Chen Luo waved his hand.

Is Soul Steel precious? It is very precious. At least with current technology, civilization cannot produce Soul Steel; it can only be obtained through archaeology.

Does Otto have a lot of Soul Steel in his body? A lot.

Chen Luo really suspected that Otto had used the vast majority of his Destiny Soul Steel inventory to create Soul Steel bodies.

Later in the story, Otto's powers as a thousand Herrschers were implanted into his own Soul Steel body.

While it's not possible to say there are exactly 1000 Soul Steel bodies, it's certainly not a small number.

Chen Luo's desire for Otto's 15 Soul Steel bodies wasn't simply for the twisted pleasure of throwing them into 15 coffins.

Chen Luo is researching the shortcomings of Otto's Soul Steel body.

When Durandal dismantles Otto's body, she always chooses the weakest point to attack, based on her warrior instincts.

Fifteen samples were enough for Chen Luo to see more than a dozen weaknesses that needed to be considered when using Soul Steel to create a body.

Chen Luo's emphasis on this aspect is naturally for the purpose of constructing the Soul Steel Doll.

When the Herrscher of Knowledge first returned to the Honkai world and went to Schicksal to steal things, he stole a few pieces of Otto's Soul Steel body.

Chen Luo had already done research on this at the time.

In fact, Soul Steel and Chen Luo are very compatible.

Soul Steel itself is a metal block composed of nanorobots.

This means that nanorobots are essentially the same as atoms in ordinary metals.

With Chen Luo's mastery of furniture, Chen Luo can better control the Soul Steel.

In other words... how about learning about Transformers?

Of course, Chen Luo himself has no interest in Transformers. Chen Luo's choice should be the same as Otto's, to use Soul Steel to make his body.

As for how to operate it...

"Oh, right, and this is your villa island transfer agreement. Bishop Otto asked me to give it to you." Durandal placed the stack of papers she was holding in her other hand on the bar.

Upon hearing this, the raven's eyes gleamed.

"The transfer agreement? I don't really care about that. What I do care about is whether it counts as a will or a testament?" Chen Luo muttered to himself, looking at the transfer agreement.

"Consider it my last words," Durandal said after a moment's thought.

After all, Otto felt like he had stabbed Otto in the heart after Otto told him about it.

"Tsk tsk."

"Ahem, boss." Raven coughed twice, seeing that Chen Luo wasn't bringing up anything serious.

Ever since that transfer agreement appeared, Raven's eyes hadn't left it, but Chen Luo and Durandal seemed completely indifferent to it, as if it didn't exist, so Raven had to speak up to remind them.

"Hmm? What's wrong? Oh, do you want this?" Chen Luo waved the transfer contract in his hand.

"……think."

"No."

"..."

"Don't look so gloomy. What if you get hit by a meteorite again now that we've given it to you?"

"This……"

"So the name of this villa island is still in my name, but I'm not going to live there, so in the end it's still yours, isn't it? Do I need this villa island?"

"Just consider this villa island as mine in name, but actually yours. Anyway, if I really wanted to take it, you couldn't beat me. Help me sign this contract," Chen Luo said, tossing the contract to Raven.

The raven, having received the contract, reluctantly found a pen and began to sign it.

[Ding! Mission complete!]

"jingle!"

"Ah, it's Shen He. Long time no see."

"Long time no see." Shen He nodded to Chen Luo.

"jingle!"

Before Shen He could close the door, the wind chimes rang again, this time opening the side door number 2.

The visitor was a new customer.
