Night Raid Plan
Based on the observations of modern civilization over this period, Mei is certain of one thing.
As long as the Herrscher don't cause trouble recklessly, the concentration of Honkai Energy in the entire civilization, even if it increases, will remain relatively stable. In other words, the respawn rate of Honkai Beast is not high—of course, this doesn't include things like the World Serpent's previous reckless actions.
As for the so-called "troublemaking," it is naturally what is commonly referred to as "Great Honkai."
That's why a bunch of high-end combatants at the Schicksal Headquarters are now just lounging around at home all day, with no missions to speak of.
"... That's great." Sakura sighed after confirming that Mei wasn't lying to her.
They are not people who can't get over difficulties, but back then it was indeed... quite regrettable. In the end, all they could say was that they had done their best and had no regrets.
"Oh, right, give this child a physical examination, check him inside and out."
After finishing her reflection, Sakura immediately pointed to Yae Rin.
The Herrscher of Corruption! The Herrscher of Corruption!
Sakura will remember what happened to Rin for the rest of her life!
If Honkai were to rewrite the terrible script of the Previous Era, Sakura felt she would be furious.
"It's a small problem, we'll talk about it when we get home." Mei nodded. Not to mention Sakura, even what happened to Ling back then, any of them with a heart would remember it for a lifetime.
"Is there anything else you guys need to pack?"
"May I ask, how many years have passed outside?" Rin asked softly.
"Five hundred years." Liu Bai had said everything he needed to say when he was explaining things, so Mei naturally knew the answer to this question as well. "Outside, all that's left of your village are ancient ruins."
The Yae sisters breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. "Good, good! At least this proves that the practice of human sacrifice has disappeared from the annals of history."
They had no attachment to that physical home, or rather, if they did, they wouldn't have entered the Stasis Pod. What they were most worried about was the pernicious influence of human sacrifice.
If Mei says the village still exists, then the two of them will have to go and investigate whether there are any sacrificial customs in the village.
"We're both fine now."
"I... um, I'm fine too."
Hokushin Mei looked at Mei's cold face, opened her mouth, and then closed it again.
Yae Sakura briefly told her about her relationship with Mei.
Hokushin Mei could actually accept this completely. After all, she used to look up at Sakura and Yae Sakura, so it was no problem for her to be in the same situation now.
But the real problem is that, although he's weak in terms of ability, he seems to be a cultured person...
On one hand, Kita- Hokushin Mei wanted to ask herself how she became a cultured person, but on the other hand, her innate, simple respect for scholars made her hesitant to ask such a trivial question.
(Could it be that I'm actually cut out for studying...?)
"Then let's go home. The plane is already waiting down the mountain."
Mei's simple statement about going home greatly increased the goodwill of those who were meeting her for the first time.
"Achoo—!" Mei sneezed as if sensing something. "Why do I have a bad feeling?"
"What bad thing did you do that got caught?" Bronya raised her eyelids slightly.
"I'll beat you up, but I haven't even had a chance to do anything bad yet," Mei pouted.
The first large-scale team building activity of Schicksal has ended. Elysia and Tesla, who are the planned bosses, had a great time, while Mobius, the initiator, and Vil-V, the first to make a move, had to be carried back.
As for the reason... it's very simple. Once Vil-V recovered her strength, she started wrestling with Mobius.
Because Vil-V suddenly remembered something: Hua never grew up because Garuda's powerful self-healing ability, which was enough to bring the dead back to life, would destroy all foreign matter.
Hua can actually get breast augmentation, but after sleeping on it, it might be "self-healed" by her own genes.
This isn't nonsense. For species with strong vitality, the state template is very important. Otherwise, if they get injured, their vitality will start to heal itself irregularly, and they'll be finished. In fact, that's not vitality, it's flesh and blood virus.
The flesh and blood can multiply infinitely, as much as you want, okay?
Then, with the Honkai Beast's gene lock preventing natural growth, this template is essentially fixed and cannot be changed. The combination of these two factors is what makes Fu Hua's breasts an incurable disease.
However, Vil-V stated that she doesn't have that kind of self-healing ability; if she gets flat, she'll just use genetic methods to get it back! Breast augmentation isn't some high-difficulty technique! She guarantees it will be completely natural and pollution-free!
Mobius? Take this!
Chapter 548 Night Raid Plan
"... So you really were planning to do something bad." Bronya paused for a moment; she had only asked casually. "Um... Mei, how about taking Bronya along?"
"How long has it been since you called me 'sister'?"
Mei glanced sideways at Bronya.
It's no secret to them that Bronya is a fake "three-no" (no money, no connections, no connections), but her behavior today is somewhat shameless.
Anyway, Mei remembered that Bronya hadn't called her "older sister" since Rita stole the food.
Of course, Mei could understand this. After all, their relationship had become that of rivals, so if they didn't want to call each other that, they couldn't.
But now that you hear I'm going to cause trouble, you're yelling again. So you really don't care about your principles anymore, huh?
"Ahem... So, what do you want to do, Mei?"
Bronya coughed lightly, ignoring Mei's teasing. Anyway, calling out wouldn't hurt her, and besides, they were already on good terms. The reason they couldn't get along a few days ago was because Mei, as a big-breasted girl, was too strong and not as easy to bully as Seele.
Mei smiled and didn't continue to tease Bronya. After all, in terms of true friendship, Bronya and Seele were the real best friends, while Kiana had to take a backseat.
Mei waited until Bronya looked a little embarrassed before speaking, "I'm planning a night raid."
"Huh? Brother Night Raid?"
Bronya looked at her strangely.
Are you planning a night raid on a ghost?
If Bronya didn't know that Mei usually speaks with substance, she would definitely be looking at Mei like she's an idiot.
"You think it's impossible?" Mei retorted.
Bronya naturally nodded. When it comes to causing trouble, if you don't understand, just ask.
"Bronya, think about it, how many people were there last night?"
"Um... mainly Miss Pardo and Miss Elysia."
"Yeah, a Fusion Warrior, a Herrscher, and to make up the numbers, there's a dragon and a few Herrscher of Domination." Mei sneered. "Think about it, with only five hours, who can my brother possibly feed?"
Bronya was taken aback, and a thoughtful expression immediately appeared on her face.
Upon closer examination, Bronya realized that something was indeed amiss.
Indeed, none of these people are simpletons. Apart from the Herrscher of Domination, the others are all physically stronger than the last, and there is even a giant Honkai Beast like Bella who specializes in physical strength.
"Mei, you mean..."
"I suspect that my brother's abilities have likely grown again... no, they may even no longer have a time limit."
Mei rested her chin on her hand and spoke.
"Otherwise, even if it's just going from five hours to ten hours, let's just say it's a different story. To put it bluntly, doubling the time doesn't really make a difference to us. At most, it just means we're going from one person to two. But if it's unlimited..."
Working 24/7 is a completely different matter.
"What if it's just my brother... um... who's very brave?" Bronya thought for a moment and then suggested another possibility.
Besides feeding them with time, it's also possible to wipe them out completely!
"It's not impossible," Mei didn't deny it. "But Bronya, think about it, apart from yesterday, do you remember where your brother has spent the night these past few days?"
"... I don't remember."
Bronya's heart sank.
This is definitely not quite right. Before this, they were monitoring each other, or rather, they couldn't stand seeing others do well. Even if Liu Bai went to someone else's room at night in ghost form, the news would spread like wildfire.
Of course, if Liu Bai is determined to send the message in the middle of the night, then there's really nothing anyone can do.
"Look, and considering that my brother behaves more like a normal person after he has a physical body, I strongly suspect that he has been sleeping somewhere else these past few days."
"... That makes sense."
"I'm going to gamble on the odds. If I win, I'll be rolling in money; if I lose, it's no big deal," Mei said bluntly. "My brother only has a few places to stay overnight, so I'll just count them."
"For example?" Bronya had already decided to go along with it; she genuinely thought it had potential.
"Reanna's room is definitely a peaceful place if Brother wants to sleep." Mei had been in Anti-Entropy for so long, she knew who Liu Bai trusted the most.
"Um... based on Aunt Reanna's room? Does that mean Mom could also be in that room?"
Speaking of Reanna's situation, Bronya was reminded of her mother, Cocolia.
Well, while Cocolia isn't as trusted as Reanna, she was still personally mentored by Reanna. She told her brother they had a superior-subordinate relationship, but who knows...
Bronya thought for a moment and figured that if her brother knocked on the door in the middle of the night wanting to take a nap, her mother probably wouldn't refuse.
"Well... maybe, but Auntie's presence is rather low."
Mei stroked her chin, looking completely agreeable.
Cocolia's current state seems to her to be somewhat reluctant.
If you really don't want to get involved in these things, why don't you just leave? Don't underestimate a soldier's decisive attitude. Cocolia really wants to quit, does Reanna think she can force her into prostitution? She's the matchmaker, not a brothel madam.
However, Cocolia hasn't said anything yet. She's the kind of person who knows it's awkward but won't leave. Everyone knows what's going on behind the scenes. That's why Reanna keeps nudging her when she's bored.
To be honest, Bronya is also quite afraid that one day her mother will suddenly become concerned about her daughter's love life—that would mean Cocolia has made up her mind to take action.
"But Mom's breasts are really big." Bronya's hatred was as strong as ever.
"... How about we call Auntie?" Mei thought for a moment, then asked, "That would be more suitable for working together from the inside and outside."
"... Are you sick?"
"You and your aunt are not related by blood."
Mei wasn't planning to keep this to herself, or rather, she couldn't keep it to herself, since the chances of Liu Bai sleeping at her place at night were extremely low; he would have to go to someone else's room.
This is also why Mei revealed the plan to Bronya; since she couldn't eat it all by herself, she might as well bring her best friend along.
Bronya remained silent for quite a while this time.
Because after thinking about it carefully, she felt that this was actually acceptable. After Cocolia had indeed been very good to her, and their relationship... excluding the factor of hatred, was actually quite good.
Besides her friends and her brother, Cocolia was the next person in the orphanage.
Kiana also has to be ranked further down the list.
It might feel a little strange, but it really works!
"We should bring Seele along too." Okay, okay, but Bronya felt that Cocolia's question was a bit awkward, so she simply changed the subject.
"Even if you don't bring her, I will."
Mei doesn't harbor the same deep-seated hatred as Bronya; Seele has always been a good younger sister in her eyes—even though Dark Seele once bound her.
The only concern is whether Seele is going too far.
After all, among the three sisters of Huang Shu, Seele is the most harmless but also the one with the most extreme tastes.
She spends all her time thinking about being treated roughly by Liu Bai... Well, Mei, who likes to bondage herself, has no right to criticize others.
Bronya is the only one here who is normal and a little slutty.
Well... hopefully Seele won't turn the sex scene into BDSM...
"I'll leave Seele and Auntie to you to handle. I'll go and smooth things over with Aunt Reanna," Mei finally decided.
Play with Cocolia, but don't abandon the Reanna storyline either. After all, to be honest, the probability of your brother appearing in Reanna's room is much higher than in Cocolia's room.
"Come on, Longma, drink."
"Burp... I can't drink anymore, Brother Siegfried, I really can't drink anymore."
There weren't many people in the cafeteria in the afternoon. In the huge hall, only Siegfried and Raiden Ryoma, both dressed in suits, were drinking.
"Brother, what's wrong? Is your daughter in trouble again?"
"My daughter? What do I have to worry about? It's your girl who's the real problem."
