Those Girls Are All Twisted!

In reality, the Fusion Warrior Project was a project with a huge gap between its upper and lower limits and a high mortality rate. However, there was no other choice back then. At least choosing this path would allow them to struggle. If they didn't choose it, they wouldn't even have the right to struggle. The Seventh Herrscher 'Seventh Herrscher strategy at the time was not to carry out the Fusion Project, which would most likely have led to the destruction of the world.

If it weren't for the immense pressure from the Seventh Herrscher, the Fusion Warrior Project shouldn't have been launched at that time—it was she who proposed the project back then, not Mobius, the trailblazer!

That's why Mei only mentions it occasionally now, and has no intention of actually implementing it.

So Mei never considered the idea of two connection points back then. No other meaning. At that time, she could only wear the Key of Emptiness. Connecting two at the same time would be impossible, let alone fighting. The moment the connection was established, she would become a dual-core Herrscher. Even when fighting Dominator, she only connected three times in a row.

After defeating the Herrscher of Domination, Mei herself was also rendered powerless, and the Key of Emptiness was sealed away.

But now, looking at the path that modern civilization is taking, Mei feels that she really needs to modify the Key of Emptiness.

So what if Valkyrie Armor is a tool or an external force? Does that mean humanity hasn't used external forces to get to where we are today? Those who don't use external forces are already in zoos. Using external forces and tools is something that humans absolutely shouldn't feel ashamed of.

Besides, aren't the God Key also external forces...?

Mei genuinely believes that the Valkyrie Armor technology is quite good, except for its slightly narrow applicability.

"Low output..." Liu Bai roughly understood what Mei meant.

Adjusting gears from 0 to 1000 is much simpler than choosing between 0 and 1, and you can always find a gear that is roughly suitable.

"One percent to one-tenth of the power supply of the Herrscher is enough for the fourth-generation Valkyrie Armor, which already has a mature foundation... Well, on the other hand, this generation might really have monsters that can withstand more than two normal cores at the same time."

"Kiana, of course."

Liu Bai naturally knew who Mei was referring to, and no one knew how many Herrscher Core Kiana... or rather, Sirin could actually contain.

"And Bianka," Mei added. "That girl is way more outrageous than Kevin was back then. I reckon if she were to undergo another Hypermutation Surgery, she might be able to turn the tables and suppress Kevin."

"Honkai Beast genes were originally present in her family."

"The only dominant trait left is the superhuman strength factor?" Mei curled her lips. After so many years of inheritance, the Kaslana family can be said to have returned to human genes. "That girl is really a freak. She has a human body that contains World Bubble, and she also has the blood of Kaslana and Schariac. To be honest, I can't find any possibility of failure in her Hypermutation Surgery."

Mei thinks Bianka's condition is just plain weird, everything else can be put aside—can you tell me what kind of crazy thing it is to have a human body containing World Bubble?

Although the Previous Era also began experimenting with the World Bubble in its later stages, it was as different as experimenting with a nuclear bomb versus inserting a nuclear bomb into the body for power.

Bianka is one of the few people who has opened Mei's eyes to the world.

"The idea of the body reversing the World Bubble was a ridiculous hypothesis for us at the time."

"Ah, the main contributor to the inversion of the World Bubble is Durandal." Liu Bai suddenly remembered this.

Mei looked somewhat confused. "I know it's Bianka."

"No, I'm talking about that supercomputer Durandal —haven't you seen that thing before?"

"It... it!?"

Mei had met Little You, but they hadn't exchanged many words—after all, Little You was genuinely feeling guilty.

Mei didn't pay much attention to Little You, since she wasn't in charge of this project. She only had a general understanding of the functions and didn't pay much attention to it.

"It can invert the World Bubble? Hmm... what functions did those people install on it back then...?"

Mei couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"The cost of inversion is actually quite high, and Little You herself only recovered in the last two years." Liu Bai casually defended Little You, "Let's get back to the main topic and talk about the Valkyrie Armor."

"...Too."

Mei let out a long sigh.

Don't expect to replicate something like the inverted World Bubble. Besides, Little You itself represents the pinnacle of technology from Previous Era. In terms of technological value alone, it might even be higher than the God Key —its practicality is no less than that of the God Key.

Let bygones be bygones.

"It is expected that after the fifth generation Valkyrie Armor is released, the weaker users of the fourth generation armor... well, that is, Rita, should be able to barely match the Herrscher in combat power."

Mei thought about it and couldn't find anyone weaker than Rita among the users of the fourth-generation armor— Himeko, who had only worn it once, obviously didn't count.

"However, for someone like Bianka, my suggestion is to extract some of Bella's genes to perform Hypermutation Surgery on Bianka, and put two or three Herrscher Core directly into the fifth-generation armor for her to wear. I'll also try to see if I can make the fifth-generation armor compatible with her armor formed by the power of the World Bubble. If it works, this girl will definitely be better than Kevin."

Mei became more and more enthusiastic as she spoke, while Liu Bai broke out in a cold sweat as he listened—Damn it! Are you really going to create a phoenix-like tyrant?

It's not impossible, is it?

"Oh right, there are also the Stigmata of Kaslana and Schariac —but I estimate that once the Hypermutation Surgery is completed, the potential of these things will naturally come out."

With this setup, the power of the Stigmata is really just an add-on.

To put it bluntly, this configuration is enough for Bianka to start a new family.

"... How about we continue talking about black stockings?"

Liu Bai was forced to retreat. Mei's plan was truly shocking. As for his fighting ability, there was really no doubt about Liu Bai. As long as Bianka could be compatible with Bella's power, no one was worse than Kevin in terms of physical attributes.

As for the adjustment period? Just kidding, Bianka's biggest advantage is that hard work always pays off.

Furthermore, Bella's power has excellent compatibility—although Bella herself is the former Herrscher of Thunder, as Judgment-Class Honkai Beast, Bella's actual attributes are Ice, Fire, Thunder, and Dark, making her a four-element Pokémon.

It will not conflict with the remaining Ice Boar power in Kaslana's bloodline, and it can also be compatible with the three Herrscher Core ice, fire, and lightning to a certain extent.

It's feasible, but it's so exaggerated that even Liu Bai thinks it's crazy.

"Then I'll go and have a chat with Miss Bianka later."

Seeing that Liu Bai seemed reluctant to discuss this topic, Mei didn't press him.

In Mei's view, Bianka's current strength is the upper limit of the Valkyrie system, not Bianka's own upper limit—in fact, Bianka, with her Dea Anchora, has long since surpassed the upper limit of the Valkyrie system.

However, embarrassingly, they haven't reached the ceiling of their current known combat strength.

So Mei felt that she would be doing herself a disservice if she didn't perform surgery on you to raise your level cap!

If Kevin is considered to be at level 100, then Mei thinks Bianka is probably around level 80—she's not a combatant, so her calculations in this area aren't very accurate and can only be used as a rough reference.

However, as a researcher, I think that if I perform surgery on you, you'll have a better foundation than Kevin did back then, and the materials I've prepared for you are better than Ice Pig's. I think you have a great chance of breaking through Kevin's ceiling and reaching the level cap of 120!

If Bianka were a low-level player like Rita, probably only level 40 or 50, Mei wouldn't even mention these things unless she was planning to murder her.

"Then you should go and talk to Bianka. She does have a good point."

Liu Bai did not stop it, after all, he could not find any fault with it. Although the plan was surprisingly radical, the risk was not high.

"By the way, if you want to draw Bella's blood, go talk to Sirin yourself. Don't try to fool that little dragon with my name."

Mei always likes to tell Bella directly, "Liu Bai is looking for you," to trick Bella into going to the lab to have her blood drawn, her hair cut, or her skin flakes collected. It would be one thing if she tricked her once, but she does it every day. The problem is that Mei keeps using the same tricks, and Bella falls for it every day.

Liu Bai felt that he couldn't keep treating Bella like this. What if Sirin found out? The two of them had finally reached an agreement, and he didn't want her to go berserk again because of this.

"Because I feed her every time I call her over to collect a sample," Mei said, adjusting her glasses.

"Oh, bloody beef or instant noodles, is that how you feed it to the dog?"

It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned it, because bringing it up made Liu Bai even more annoyed.

When Liu Bai found out about this, he didn't know whether feeding her bloody beef or instant noodles was worse.

"Then I'll cook for her myself next time?" Mei pushed up her glasses and said expressionlessly.

You should know that I have been trying my best to control my ever-increasing urge to slice things up.

"Then I'll go and continue writing 'The God-Slaying Files'." Liu Bai said, "Go ahead and do it if you don't mind the embarrassment."

"..." Mei paused for a moment, "Let's talk about something happy— Raven, take off your stockings."

The Raven, who had been silently observing the situation, was thinking, "???"

"... Are you sick?"

"If you don't take it off, I'll turn the connecting device on the armor I customized for you into a beaded cord." Mei remained expressionless.

Yes, Raven is also qualified to wear fourth-generation armor.

Upon hearing this, the Raven's face turned half red and half green.

Squeak—

"... I think I've come at the wrong time."

The red-haired female scientist, who had just opened the door, looked at the two people inside with a thoughtful expression on her face.

Did I hear something... vulgar?

Playing really big...

"Sorry to bother you, I will come back to report to you in thirty minutes."

Chapter 375 Those girls are all crooked!

The Raven's face was half red and half green.

Red is easy to understand. Although Raven is now slacking off all day and always seems lazy and unmotivated, she is still a virgin.

Well, from a certain perspective, it's quite rare to see a virgin who has accepted being a mistress.

However, despite being mentally prepared, Raven was already considered a conservative among this group of people, or even more so, one could directly call Raven "one of the few normal people". So when Mei openly threw out the word "la bead", Raven couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

—Aren't you ashamed to say such things in front of Lord Liu Bai!

As for Qing... I have to say, the feeling of déjà vu from Mei's words is too strong. After hearing the word "La Zhu", Raven imagined a string of Herrscher Core strung together and the energy that kept gushing out of her butt during the battle.

No, the déjà vu is too strong, I can't think about it anymore.

Raven shifted uncomfortably, feeling that if he continued to think about this issue, a certain aspect of his values would collapse.

... Rita really has it tough.

Raven thought Rita was incredibly strong to be able to hold her own among this group—even though she was in a pretty bad situation now.

Maybe I should just treat her to a meal next time...

"... By the way, who was that scientist just now?"

Raven immediately changed the subject, but still rubbed her hands on her stockings a few times.

Thankfully, Jin Jintian wasn't wearing a black bodysuit... or rather, it had been a while since he'd worn his combat uniform.

If changing the subject fails... then just take your clothes off.

A few stockings and a sense of shame are better than having energy constantly gushing from your ass during future battles...

(Wait a minute, why do I feel this power supply method is safe?)

I really can't think about this anymore.

As a human with few remaining Schicksal and normal values, Raven keenly sensed and nipped the signs of his own mind becoming alienated.

"Her? Elizabeth Nagatsugu McSmith, the former director of the St. 1504 Institute, the head of Schicksal's weapons research, Nagatsugu XVII or something, I transferred her to be my deputy — to be honest, the current naming system is really cumbersome."

"I also think the naming conventions of the Previous Era are strange."

Raven and Mei were in perfect sync, complaining about the cultural differences between the two civilizations.

"What about the Jackal?"

Raven felt he should at least show some concern for his old partner who had "swept to the side".

"I don't know." Mei shook her head. "I gave her a break a few days ago—or rather, I dismissed her. We don't really need her for the purely mechanical work here anymore."

Mei had no one else available before, so she used Jackal, a biologist, as her assistant. Now that she has a proper mechanical scientist like Nagatsugu, Mei will definitely kick Jackal out.

Well, it's not that Jackal is useless. After all, Jackal is a world-class scientist. Even in the Previous Era, he would have been someone who could hold a place at the Mu Continent Symposium. He's good enough as a deputy, even if he's from a different field. Not to mention, he has a lot of knowledge about things from the Previous Era.

However, in Mei's case, it's a waste of such a top-notch biologist. After all, there are only two biologists in Schicksal who can truly be considered top-notch— Otto and Jackal. Letting Jackal go would be a waste.

Secondly... you're practically a student of Mobius, so get the hell out of my way!

Previously, Mei's only available second-in-commands were either Jackal or Gray Serpent. Of course, Mei had no choice but to choose Jackal, whether in terms of work efficiency or romantic rivalry. Now that there are other people, who else should leave if not you?

"By the way, I'm actually quite curious about the criteria by which the title 'Nagatsugu' was passed down—by the way, Mei, have you ever met the first Nagatsugu?"

"..."

Mei suddenly fell silent.

"I've never seen it before, but do you mean that the Nagatsugu lineage is related to you?"

Are you a scientist trap?! Aren't there a lot of scientists around you?!

You must have more than ten scientists around you, right?

"We just know each other, we're friends, I guess." Liu Bai glanced sideways at his student, who seemed to be having a mental breakdown.

To be honest, back then, compared to Otto, who was a hidden rebellious daughter, his relationship with Nagatsugu was more like a "faith".
