Outside Moon Maiden City!
“Just tell us, just give us a tiny little bit of information about the Sapphire Sea, okay?”
Unlike her initial hostile demeanor, Paimon now resembled a lovesick dog, fawning over a goddess who wouldn't reciprocate his affection.
She buzzed around the sprite-transformed Liloupar, flying left and right.
“Little white dot, don't be noisy.”
Taking malicious delight in teasing Paimon, Liloupar swept her with a disdainful look.
She hadn’t expected to find such an amusing “toy” after being sealed away for a thousand years and breaking free.
“Come on, you tell me, and I'll stop bothering you.”
“Hmph, dream on.”
Hearing the two little things arguing in the air, Lumine in the middle remained silent. She had already figured out that Liloupar was deliberately teasing Paimon.
Giving her a bit of hope, then ruthlessly crushing it.
Poor Paimon was truly being toyed with.
No wonder she could destroy an ancient nation through schemes and be sealed away in a magic bottle by the Dendro Archon. Her PUA skills alone spoke volumes.
“I wonder how things are going with Luo Chen, if he’s run into any trouble.”
Choosing to ignore the mind games between the sprite and the floating spirit, Lumine raised her hand to shield her eyes, squinting towards the dark abyss in the distance.
She didn’t have to look closely. Upon closer inspection, she discovered a large line of strange characters etched on the surface at the edge of the abyss.
“What is this? I don’t remember seeing it when we arrived.”
When they got closer, Paimon was the first to express her confusion.
Lumine shook her head, indicating that she didn't recognize the characters, but she guessed that they were probably related to Luo Chen.
But what was strange was, why would he leave some incomprehensible characters?
“No need to look, this is the language of the Divine Spirit, left behind by your companion, informing you that he has achieved his goal. Your agreement has been fulfilled, you don't have to wait for him.”
As Lumine and Paimon were baffled, Liloupar directly deciphered the meaning of the mysterious text.
That fast?
The progress seemed unexpectedly rapid, but since Luo Chen had left a message, they had no reason to doubt it.
After all, only the three of them knew about their agreement.
However, why did this guy leave Divine Spirit characters? Was he trying to blend in? Wasn’t he worried they wouldn’t understand?
Unable to resist her inner thoughts, Lumine shook her head and dismissed the strange thoughts.
“Then we'll head back to Sumeru City and figure out how to see the Lesser Lord Kusanali.”
Now that they had fulfilled the commission, their immediate priority was their own goal.
…………
Eternal Oasis! Green Nursery!
“My lord, I’ve left a message outside. If there are no unforeseen circumstances, your companions should be able to see it.”
Completely unaware of the message left behind by Filigilis in the Divine Spirit language, Luo Chen was currently immersed in his thoughts.
The refreshed simulation count had attracted his attention. Even the return of the Mother of Divine Spirits didn't distract him, and he simply responded casually.
“Refreshed again? It’s pretty quick.”
To be honest, having experienced divine-era simulations, he couldn't help but have high expectations for the next one, hoping to get a good talent selection by chance.
The template was secondary.
Unless he got a more terrifying “Transcendent Template”, “Overlord Template”, “All in One Template”, “Crimson King Template”...
If he could get one of these, beating the Honkai universe wouldn't be that hard.
Unfortunately, the probability was really low.
Failing that, a “Honkai Herrscher Template” wouldn't be unacceptable.
Thinking about various things, Luo Chen resisted the urge to immediately run the simulation and instead looked up.
Filigis was looking at him expectantly in front of him, with a look of eager anticipation.
This reminded him of the Mother of Divine Spirits, who hadn't fully matured a thousand years ago. She was like this.
He couldn't help but smile, thinking that after all this time, she remained the same.
Laughing, Luo Chen praised, “Well done.”
Sure enough, Filigis, who was extremely pleased, bowed her head and smiled. Her originally lifeless appearance regained vitality.
Seeing this, he pondered for a moment and instructed, “I'm going to seek out my lost power and memories. I may disappear for a short period of time. Don't panic, just guard this place.”
“I will never allow outsiders to disturb my mistress's resting place.”
The Mother of Divine Spirits’ resolute words were the best reassurance.
Nodding slightly, having given her a heads-up, Luo Chen was no longer worried that Filigis would panic because he was disappearing during the simulation process.
“Then I'll feel at ease.”
It was a good opportunity to go ahead with this simulation while the god template was being integrated.
By the time he woke up, he might be able to complete the integration.
With this thought in mind, Luo Chen closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and immersed himself in the simulation selection.
“Simulate, start!”
As he confirmed, the voice with a mechanical tone rang out in his mind again.
【Instruction confirmed. Infinite Simulation Initiating!】
【Simulation Era — Era of the Seven Archons】
Era of the Seven Archons?
It seemed that the era of the Archon War had ended and entered a rare period of peace.
Oh, wait, not necessarily.
The so-called Era of the Seven Archons spanned too long a time, perhaps only slightly less than the divine era.
Plus, who knows which country or time node he would be randomly sent to.
【Randomly selecting template…】
【Congratulations on obtaining the template — Lord of the Hundred Ghosts】
【Alignment: Lawful · Evil】
Luo Chen couldn't help but be startled when he saw the alignment.
After so many simulations, this was the first time he'd randomly gotten the Evil alignment. Most of the time it had been Lawful · Neutral.
His interest was immediately piqued, and he couldn't help but look forward to the simulation even more.
After all, the alignment would affect his personality and actions during the simulation, amplifying a certain part of his personality.
Luo Chen didn't know what his evil personality would be like, but thankfully it wasn't Chaotic. Otherwise, he would have become a real villain.
If he ended up causing a major incident, it would be a bit overwhelming to handle when he returned to reality.
