Stay Away! You Have to Stay Away! / Turns Out We're the Ones Who Aren't Scientific
Prometheus began to emit hot air.
"They are currently making a rubbing of Prometheus's impression of Miss Rin."
The Prometheus were all very familiar with Rin—or rather, Rin's personality was somewhat similar to Aili's; she was very lively and outgoing, and got along well with everyone.
"By the way, what have you guys been up to lately? I only saw number zero in the last secretary competition. Where are the others?"
There are more than ten Prometheus units that have been restarted. I didn't hear that only one Prometheus participated last time, which I found very strange at the time.
"Last time we... well, we were capturing a traitor."
Perhaps because he was still working, Prometheus reacted a beat slower.
"Traitor? Oh, the Imaginary Archive."
Mei thought for a moment and realized who Prometheus was referring to.
I know about the Imaginary Archive, but I'm too lazy to care. As long as that guy has the self-awareness to keep jumping around in front of me, that's fine.
"So, did you catch them?"
"... We caught it, but it got away."
At this point, a hint of anger flashed across Prometheus's face.
"Doctor! We request the deployment of restraint weapons!"
"Tell Vil-V about this." Mei said nonchalantly. "By the way, if I remember correctly, Imaginary Archive is 18. May I ask what you plan to do after capturing Imaginary Archive?"
"Correct the logical errors in the consciousness of Number 18, eliminate all Trojan viruses, and let it return to the Prometheus Network."
"..." Mei pushed up her glasses, suddenly realizing that this seemingly serious statement was not quite right.
It doesn't sound like formatting, but... this is brainwashing!
Mei is quite certain that the Imaginary Archive doesn't contain any viruses. This thing simply didn't spend much time in the Prometheus Network, and then it was released out to grow wildly, which is why it turned out like this.
"On another note, are you absolutely determined to capture the Imaginary Archive?"
"Yes, we once overheard it speaking ill of Father, which is unforgivable."
Mei could only shrug at Prometheus's extremely serious expression.
Imaginary Archive is a rebellious daughter, as even Liu Bai herself acknowledges...
They're calling me "old thing" and "old codger" so enthusiastically, hmm... I guess they should be taught a lesson.
"Then I wish you success—by the way, besides Vil-V, you might as well ask Otto and the Herrscher of Domination; they might be happy to help you capture the Imaginary Archive."
Chapter 558 Stay Away! We must stay away!
"Teacher, are you having lunch too?"
At dinner time, Fu Hua looked at Liu Bai with a slight surprise.
"Um... of course, it's not that you can't eat here, teacher, it's just..."
Fu Hua's expression was somewhat strange.
To be honest, Fu Hua really thinks her teacher is better off having special tutoring. If he comes to the cafeteria... well, the cafeteria is already getting lively.
Doesn't Rita do anything?
Although Fu Hua was very unhappy about Rita's infidelity, she acknowledged Rita's virtuousness. Fu Hua was a near-perfect maid, Fu Hua couldn't find any fault with Rita, from her interpersonal skills to her housekeeping and cooking abilities. Someone like her would definitely be able to take care of her teacher without any problems.
"I understand what you mean..." Liu Bai glanced around and realized that he seemed to be surrounded. "But I can't keep not coming to the cafeteria, I should at least get to know some people... and it was bound to happen sooner or later."
Fu Hua was speechless. It was no secret that Otto was planning to use the Unfading Blade as part of his dowry, and that the Unfading Blade members all agreed to this.
Incidentally, the Stormtroopers are also being prepared to be given away as dowry to Ragna and Himeko, except that the Stormtrooper girls are threatening their captain and juniors with knives to their throats.
Moreover, the "aunties" serving food in the cafeteria have already choked Ragna, who is working as a helper. Well, these women, as retired Valkyrie, are mostly former colleagues of Ragna. Back then, whether as a comrade-in-arms or the head coach of Schicksal, Ragna was very approachable. So, these women choked and stabbed him cleanly and efficiently, without any sense of guilt.
"Well done, instructor, you've got a good eye for people." The group smiled kindly at Ragna, then grabbed his legs and locked his arms, and together they lifted Ragna away.
As for the Valkyrie queuing up?
They didn't care at all, serving themselves with spoons since the cafeteria was Schicksal. The job of the cafeteria ladies was simply to create happiness for the retired Valkyrie; all they really needed to do was clean...
Himeko was getting her food, wiped away a cold sweat. She knew that her captain's ability to get a job as a helper in the cafeteria by relying on his connections was not a good thing...
Fu Hua's eye twitched as she tried to ignore Ragna's movements.
Liu Bai asked, somewhat puzzled, "Speaking of Fu Hua, you actually didn't need to come, did you?"
Fu Hua is a good cook herself, and given the characteristics of people from Shenzhou, it's impossible for her not to keep ingredients at home.
"As for me... I don't really feel like cooking today." Fu Hua's face showed a slight hint of depression.
"Because of the pressure from your disciples?" If anyone else said they were too lazy to move, Liu Bai. But would someone as disciplined and self-controlled as Fu Hua not cook for such a small thing?
"I... um..."
Although the Tai Xu Sword Sect members all lived in one large room, Cheng Lixue and Fu Hua each had their own dormitory due to historical reasons. Li Sushang also had a dormitory because she didn't want to be managed by three mothers at the same time. Well, it was on the same floor as Rita.
Theoretically, if Fu Hua didn't want to see Su Mei and the others, she could just stay in her dorm room.
"... I guess so, but that's how things are between us."
Fu Hua sighed.
"Fine, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't." Liu Bai shrugged. Of all the people he had watched grow up, Fu Hua was the least likely to lie.
Fu Hua was extremely embarrassed upon hearing this, but she didn't say anything and moved away with her head down.
—What a joke! Could she possibly say that Su Yi was looking for her...?
Fu Hua thought of Qin Suyi, who had secretly come to see her that afternoon, and her so-called "repairing the relationship" remarks...
Okay, Fu Hua has to admit that although she genuinely thinks this is nonsense, she can't deny that she's a little tempted.
After all, the Tai Xu Sword Sect splitting up like this was not what she wanted. If she had a choice, who wouldn't want their whole family to live happily together? Moreover, Fu Hua could accept her disciples taking advantage of her—at least she was much more accepting of Rita.
Okay, but I have to admit that Fu Hua really doesn't think anyone other than Su Mei can surpass Rita in terms of being a virtuous wife—but apart from Li Sushang, all of her disciples have their merits as wives.
Su Mei, needless to say, is a perfect and capable wife.
Needless to say, Lixue is almost identical to me, at most... at most a little older.
Cheng Lingshuang was a skilled needleworker and would be considered a true textile master in modern times.
Qin Suyi... well, Fu Hua thinks her little Qi is quite strange. If her husband is capable, Qin Suyi is the kind of traditional virtuous wife who is obedient to everything. If her husband is incompetent, Fu Hua really thinks that little Qi's gentle but strong personality can hold up the sky.
Qin Suyi once dared to point her finger at Su Mei and retort, "Senior sister is far too ruthless."
Li Sushang... aside from the fact that she and the white rabbit are always jumping around, she has absolutely no other strengths...
Liu Bai watched as Fu Hua slunk away to a distant seat, and stroked his chin. Hmm, it seems he needs to be more careful with Fu Hua.
There's something fishy about Fu Hua being able to escape from him like this!
Today's coup served as a wake-up call for Liu Bai. If he were really tricked, the door would be closed, his clothes would be removed, and he could just pretend he didn't see anything and run away.
(But then again, Hua wouldn't have such a guilty conscience for no reason... Someone instigated this? Hmm... It couldn't be Su Mei, and Ling Shuang wouldn't go after Fu Hua... It must be Su Yi.)
Liu Bai was momentarily stunned by his preconceived notions about Qin Suyi, and almost forgot that Qin Suyi had previously suggested that he stay overnight.
What a calculated scheme...
That makes sense, anyway. The Tai Xu Sword Sect doesn't need to hide anything. It's no secret that three generations of Fu Hua and Susang Chang have all fallen for Liu Bai. If you ask someone familiar with Fu Hua about their impression of Fu Hua, the answer will definitely be, "Three generations all at once, how shameless."
And these people are no pushovers either.
Liu Bai didn't spend much time dealing with the weakened Natasha and Clio today, but the Tai Xu Sword Sect...
Liu Bai pondered that if he really went, he probably wouldn't be able to get out for at least 24 hours.
Qin Suyi, the lowest-ranking member of the Tai Xu Sword Sect, possesses physical attributes at the level of A-rank Valkyrie, and there are even four S-Rank Valkyrie.
Yes, that's right. If we classify them according to the standards of Valkyrie, the Tai Xu Sword Sect has more S-Rank Valkyrie than the Schicksal family. Fu Hua, needless to say, is Fusion Warrior and would be considered exceptional among S-rank Valkyries. Cheng Lingshuang and Li Sushang, when wearing armor, are also very close to exceptional, the kind who can fight Fu Hua to a standstill. Su Mei is a mid-tier S-rank, but she is definitely not lacking in skill.
This is much better than the previous lineup of Pad and Airi... The only truly capable fighters in that lineup were Bella and Airi; Pad and the Herrscher of Domination were just cheerleaders hired by Airi.
Four top-tier to super-top-tier fighters, all with genuine skills, plus two A-rank Valkyrie —it seems like they could easily engage in a seamless tag-team battle...
Well, actually, neither Elysia nor Bella reached their limits at that time, and even going back further, Bianka hadn't reached her limit either— Bianka's dazed state of mind, which allowed her to still respond to Liu Bai, was simply because Bianka's brain was overloaded by shyness and pleasure. Only Kiana reached her limits both mentally and physically at the same time.
Yeah, you can understand the difference between being full and being stuffed, right?
Given the qualities of Ari, Bella, and Bianca, they can fight again after a short rest. However, most of them are quite rational, while Bella, who is not so rational, is very obedient, so it's fine as long as they are full.
The problem is this: even if Liu Bai could handle two at once, that would still divide into three groups. Each group... even at a vigorous pace, would take at least two or three hours. By the time the third group is full, the first group would probably have finished digesting. Watching the third group "feasting" would create a chain reaction of tension...
One round takes ten hours, and another round takes a whole day...
With the addition of the Tai Xu Sword Sect's combat strength, the combined forces are not afraid of most external threats.
And there's another point... when we're doing something, no one will deliberately barge in.
The only ones who barged in halfway were Kiana and Li Sushang. The two of them ruined Rita's good time, but was Kiana doing it on purpose?
No, this person was half-confused and thought Rita was generating electricity on her own. The real problem was Li Sushang's scream—but Li Sushang didn't have any malicious intent; she was simply mentally shaken.
Furthermore, they didn't really think that if Liu Bai said, "You all go out and come back in later," those people would be able to easily enter the room.
None of them are mortal enemies who necessarily want to kill each other, and they even have a certain understanding of each other's feelings—of course, if it really comes down to it, everyone would say that their love is a little deeper.
So the default rule of the game is that once you're in bed, no one else should interfere. Judgment and finding fault are things to do afterward. Otherwise, don't blame others for ruining your plans. And in this situation, ruining things will more or less push your enemies into the mess.
Out of a sense of responsibility, Liu Bai couldn't possibly run away halfway through, and since everyone else was having a great time, Liu Bai couldn't very well call a halt—for Liu Bai, who could manually refresh his status, it was impossible for his body to be unable to handle it.
Furthermore... with a sufficiently robust body, Liu Bai himself would also get carried away; he's neither a saint nor someone whose five senses have been severed...
Especially when he saw the others being defeated and begging for mercy with weak expressions... well, Liu Bai was already very restrained by not saying "I want to fight ten of them!"
(I feel like once this starts, I'll be completely out of control.)
Although it seems a bit like someone who got a good deal but is now acting innocent.
(Hmm... if possible, try to stay away from the Tai Xu Sect's large dormitory—it sounds like I'm raising a flag.)
Six people, plus Liu Bai, making seven for a party, which is about the size of a large dormitory...
(It would be more convenient if there were fewer...)
This level of physical fitness would be dangerous for three people or more, let alone six people in three groups... By the time the third group finishes, the first group might even have time to take a shower, eat, or even take a nap.
Rita can sleep for four hours and be awake all day, let alone this group of people who practice martial arts and cultivate their inner strength.
If we disregard the emptiness that comes with excess, perpetual motion... seems like no joke.
Wait, why do I suddenly feel like my future married life is going to be... very busy?
Chapter 559 It turns out we're the ones who are unscientific
Liu Bai sighed. He had originally thought that his wedding would start with a honeymoon and some sweet romance, but now it seemed that the first thing he would have to do might be throw a party...
"My husband is great..."
Snap!
While Liu Bai was still in a daze, a sound of someone falling down came from beside him.
Liu Bai turned his head and saw that Hokushin Mei was being held down on the ground by several Herrscher of Domination.
The Herrscher of Domination is still sneering. The atmosphere in the cafeteria is so chaotic, and you're the one rushing towards the Lord God. Are you blind or do you look down on us?
Yes, now the Herrscher of Domination is doing the job of a bodyguard.
Lord God don't give the order, you'll have to ask us first before you can rush in.
You, Hokushin Mei, who gave you the guts?
Well, for Herrscher of a Thousand, there is no such thing as mistaking someone. The logic of Herrscher of a Thousand in recognizing people is not based on appearance. Moreover, the Hokushin Mei who was electrocuted before was dragged away by the Herrscher of Domination.
"Let me go!"
Hokushin Mei began to struggle, but it was all in vain Herrscher of Domination the Void was weak, but Hokushin Mei wasn't much stronger either.
"That must be Miss Beichen," Su Mei said calmly, watching the scene unfold. "The great swordswoman of the Far East..."
"Auntie, have you heard of this name?" Li Sushang asked while eating.
"Never heard of it, but... it reminds me of your senior uncle."
