She smiled and leaned closer, jokingly saying:
"If I could really make a wish, could you please turn off the halo around my head? It makes it hard to sleep."
[Request: Exusiai wishes to turn off the halo above her head]
[Reward for Requesting the Quest: A random Holy Light-type lottery draw]
"Okay."
As Luo Zhen spoke, he picked up the Jizo Mitama and tapped it on her aura, activating the Key of Erosion!
Exusiai's aura has truly faded.
Volume 1: 022 - Whoever gets pregnant from glaring at them will get pregnant
[Commission complete, you receive a random Holy Light lottery draw]
Luo Zhen immediately started the lottery.
[You have acquired the skill: Suspected Pregnancy and Tumors]
[Pregnancy Announcement: Designate a target to become pregnant. The more difficult it is for the target to conceive, the more effort is required.]
[After ten months of pregnancy, a child can be born. Energy can be consumed to speed up the pregnancy process, or the pregnancy can be terminated before delivery.]
It was such a skill! Luo Zhen never expected to obtain such a bizarre ability: the Virgin Mary became pregnant out of wedlock, and Abraham's wife gave birth to a child the following year after menopause.
The Holy Light faction certainly doesn't lack the power of pregnancy, but judging from the skill description, even men can get pregnant and give birth! Is this really a Christian ability, or the Mother-Child River from Journey to the West?
Not only was Ryougi surprised, but Exusiai was too.
“Huh?!!!!”
Exusiai touched the halo above her head and exclaimed in surprise, "It actually turned off! How did they do that?! Can it turn back on? Am I still a Sarkaz?!"
"Of course it counts, it's just a mechanism."
Luo Zhen tapped the halo above her head again with the Key of Erosion, and the extinguished halo lit up again.
The Sarkaz have wings of light and halos, like angels from mythology. However, they are actually the same race as the Sarkaz, who are contemptuously called demons. They were just wanderers who encountered the "Laws," a technological product left over from a previous civilization. After accepting the restrictions of the Laws, they transformed into the Sarkaz they are today.
Sarkaz viewed this as a betrayal and harbored deep hatred for Sarkaz.
Since it is a product of technology, the Key of Erosion has its place. Of course, the technological level of the previous civilization in Arknights is terrifyingly strong, and it is uncertain whether they can even pass the final battle. Naturally, the Key of Erosion cannot sweep through everything.
Exusiai's aura, however, doesn't require that much technical skill, making it easy for the Key of Erosion to affect her.
"It's back again!"
Exusiai stroked the halo; she had been genuinely startled just now, almost thinking she wouldn't be able to turn back, wondering if that would count as falling from grace.
"This is amazing! Are you the legendary Messiah?"
The Sakotas not only resemble angels in appearance, but their religious doctrines are also dubious. They believe that the Messiah is the savior chosen by God to descend to earth and save humanity.
Representing the will of God, she can certainly manipulate her halo at will.
Exusiai grabbed Luo Zhen's hand: "I'm so lucky to have come to Messiah's abode. It must be because I'm too devout. Messiah, come to Penguin Logistics, I'll treat you to apple pie!"
Are you sure you want apple pie?
Luo Zhen raised an eyebrow. Some rumors mentioned that the forbidden fruit Adam and Eve ate was an apple, but others said that the fruit of knowledge had nothing to do with apples. He was also unsure whether Christians ate apples.
But perhaps Terra doesn't have this rumor?
He was pulled away from the quest cabin by Exusiai and brought to Penguin Logistics.
"Texas, Croissant, and some free time... I've met the Messiah!"
Exusiai shouted loudly, attracting the attention of the entire Penguin Logistics team. However, before she could explain clearly, she excitedly ran to the kitchen, intending to make apple pie for Luo Zhen herself.
Although she seems loud and boisterous and has a particular fondness for explosions, she is actually very devout, but since this isn't Lateran, no one notices her devotion.
Several gazes swept over him, and a penguin wearing sunglasses sized up Luo Zhen. He was the Beast Lord Emperor:
"Exusiai has brought an extraordinary guest. Messiah is a name from Laterano, isn't it? It doesn't sound rock and roll at all."
She must have misunderstood.
Luo Zhen sat on the sofa, looking relaxed. "I'm just the manager of a shop that helps people solve their problems. I'm not even from this world, so how could I be the Messiah?"
"Not from this world? That sounds more absurd than the messiah."
The emperor said, "Do you know what you're saying?"
"Of course I know very well that only a beast lord like you on this land can understand what I'm saying."
Luo Zhen said, "I am a human being."
The Emperor sized up Luo Zhen and let out a penguin-like shriek: "Damn it, I really can't see any racial characteristics. If you're human, then you really are a messiah."
Texas was biting into a chocolate bar:
"What are you talking about? Can you make it simpler and easier to understand?"
"Simply put it..."
The Emperor slid in and tackled Luo Zhen, saying, "This guy must have a lot of amazing stuff."
He was just being mischievous out of habit. Because he was immortal, Luo Zhen grabbed him and, smiling, used the skill he had just acquired:
Announcement of pregnancy!
It also consumed a large amount of magic power, causing the embryo in the emperor's belly to grow rapidly, and the emperor's belly immediately swelled up like an inflated balloon.
"Damn it, what have you done!"
The emperor screamed, clutching his stomach and rolling to the side, "Are you just going to stand by and watch your boss get bullied by outsiders?"
Texas and the others remained unmoved:
"Even if you say that, boss, it's because you provoked others. We're used to seeing you court death and then die, but you didn't die this time."
The employees of Penguin Logistics are used to it; their boss always dies for some strange reason, only to jump out of bed again the next day, full of energy.
The bread man croissant curiously examined his bulging belly: "Boss, your belly is so big, it looks like you're pregnant."
"This is pregnancy!"
The emperor screamed, "I feel someone kicking me in the stomach!"
"what? What?"
Exusiai, carrying a freshly baked apple pie, rushed over excitedly and immediately spotted the Emperor screaming:
"This guy got me pregnant!"
"Oh oh oh!!!"
Exusiai jumped up excitedly, "Is it a divine child's pregnancy? As expected of the Messiah, even this can be done. Boss, you're going to become the Virgin Mary. No, are you male or female?"
"I'm a man!"
"The gender of the beast lord is meaningless."
The two spoke at the same time, and Luo Zhen said with a smile:
"The Beast Lord can transform into anything; he can become male or female."
"That sounds really cool."
Exusiai whistled and presented the apple pie to Luo Zhen like a treasure, saying, "It tastes best when it's hot."
"Is no one speaking up for the poor penguins?"
The emperor cried out in grief and indignation, "You are abusing animals! I think I'm really going to give birth."
Just then, the door to Penguin Logistics was kicked open, and a dashing little dragon police officer barged in:
"Penguin Logistics, your doomsday has come!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Huijie saw the emperor's belly bulging high and immediately became flustered:
"I don't know how to deliver babies. Should I take you to the hospital? Wait, Your Majesty, how could you possibly be pregnant!"
The emperor was so pained to think that his old friend's niece had witnessed this scene. He closed his eyes in anguish. He was exhausted. Let it all end. If this got out, his old friends would laugh at him for thousands of years!
Volume 1: 023 - The Dark History Deterrence Plan
"just kill me!"
The emperor looked utterly devastated, as if he would rather die than live a life of utter despair.
Luo Zhen reached out and touched its belly, which was very elastic: "Speaking of which, penguins should lay eggs, right? This seems to be viviparous."
"Shouldn't you be the one asking me that!"
The Emperor let out an indescribable penguin-like scream, "Can I recover? If I can't, just kill me! This thing actually divided my power!"
Through the connection of the [Pregnancy Announcement] skill, Luo Zhen sensed that the fetus in the Emperor's womb was indeed gathering the Emperor's power, but he could not sense any consciousness from the fetus, and he did not know whether it would be stillborn.
Even with the Emperor being pushed to this point, Luo Zhen still couldn't trigger any quests from him, so it seems there's no way to farm quests this way.
Luo Zhen regretfully canceled the [Announce Pregnancy] skill. The Emperor's belly immediately flattened, and he nimbly jumped up, patted his belly, and the fetus inside was gone. He had fully recovered.
"Your ability is too abnormal!"
The Emperor protested, "How could someone possess such a monstrous ability!"
Apart from Exusiai, the other members of Penguin Logistics quietly retreated and distanced themselves from Ryou.
They were all young women, and even someone as aloof as Texas didn't want to suddenly become pregnant and a virgin mother out of wedlock.
Exusiai exclaimed in surprise, "It can actually be undone? I thought I was going to see the birth of the Holy Son."
"I don't have that ability. Even if I were born, I could never be the Holy Son."
Luo Zhen said, "If I can make him give birth to a holy child, then I will be the Holy Father."
"That's right."
Exusiai looked regretful, feeling that she had missed the opportunity to witness a miracle.
